  1. Joint post between Chet Duke and B.L. Davenport Walking back from the parts store, down the side street from the garage, Cooter seeing the fight, headed that way to even up the odds. "Hey what's going on here?!" The older man shouted above the crack of flying fists one of which cleaned his clock, shaking his head Cooter flung out a fist in retaliation. Chet glanced only briefly at Cooter before getting his gut hammered by a flying fist, now that his back was covered he turned loose on the colored guy who'd swung the first punch. With the odds evened up the old mechanic and young Duke made short work of the two hoodlums and sent them packing in no time flat. Bent foreward catching his breath Chet waves his hand at Cooter. "Thanks Cooter, I owe you." "Nah, ya don't owe me nothin, I hate to see a man up against them kinda odds." Cooter huffed, a little short of breath himself, after the fight, he just wasn't as young as he used to be." Stratening Chet let out a heavy sigh. "I brought it on myself, I just can't stand to see all these young kids that have got no self respect. There pants hand down around there ass and they constantly got those damn hoods covering half there faces." The cowboy shook his head. "Don't get me started." Clapping the young Duke on the back, Cooter nodded his head in agreement. "I agree with ya 100%, some of 'em even got more holes in their head's than God intended." Mimicking the younger man, Cooter shook his own head, he never thought he would see the day that these type things was coming to Hazzard, he thought maybe it was just up in Washington D.C., when he was in congress but now he could see it was coming right into his own home turf. "Yeah, let em' stay in the big citties where they belong. You know I over heard Enos say the other day in the cafe that crime has doubled this last year alone." Chet moved to lean against the nearest building to light a half crushed cigarette and talk to one of the few people he trusted. Cooter folded his arms across his broad chest listening to the younger man. "Doubled" The old mechanic whisled low, reaching up to readjust the ball cap on his head. "We need ta do somethin' around here before, it gets outta hand. I just ain't sure what ta do." "Im working on it, Im keeping my eyes and ears open. Theres more then just city folk moving in on us here, we've got a different kind of crime." He shook his head again and drew on his cigarette. "I appreciate your help Cooter but I would prefer you stayed out of the path of this for now. "Chet, I ain't gonna stand by and see hoodlums, comin in here and giving Hazzard a bad reputation." Cooter looked Chet, dead in the eye, few things riled Cooter but doing a wrong to his friends and neighbors was a sure fire way to rile him. "You do that Cooter, but dont get involved in the crime side of it. I will handle that, this is my territory." Chet pinched out his cigarette. "Thanks again for your help Cooter." With that he walked on down the side walk heading for his truck. Cooter raised his hand waving as Chet headed on down the street, with a deep crease frown, marring his face he turned and headed back inside to the garage, just at that moment his cousin B.L. raised up from under the hood of her car, grease smudges on her face and covering the cover alls she wore. "Hey, Coot what's doin?" Snapping out of his own thoughts, knowing BL would want to get involved he shook his head "Nothin' cuz, just thinking." He shrugged, even though B.L. had been grown up for many years, he felt like he had to protect her, and he wasn't about to let her know what was going on, she'd jump in with both feet if he did. "Well don't think so much, it looked like it was makin ya head hurt." The blonde woman flashed a smile at her cousin, before disappearing back under the car's hood.
  2. Happy New Year's Roger!
