RogerDuke Posted July 6, 2009 Report Posted July 6, 2009 *after ovehearing what was going on and seeing Bo drive away, Jesse throws something in the back of his pick-up and drives away too without telling anyone where he is going. His mind is on Bo and Luke and he is so troubled he doesn't notice that his CB is off* Quote
DaisyMaeDuke Posted July 6, 2009 Author Report Posted July 6, 2009 *swallows hearing Jesse take off closing his eyes- he was getting sick of feeling responsible for everyone's bad moods- but there didn't seem to be a thing he could do about it* Great.... Quote
RogerDuke Posted July 6, 2009 Report Posted July 6, 2009 After getting to his destination, Jesse gets out of the pick-up. While leaning again the tailgate, a puffy white cloud passes overhead blocking out the sun. Jesse takes a deep breath of clear country air and says a quick prayer hoping that the CB will soon ring out with Bo or Luke's voice. Quote
DaisyMaeDuke Posted July 6, 2009 Author Report Posted July 6, 2009 *sighs not liking the feeling of being alone-he never had- especially when he wasn't sure where anyone was; getting up he went to the CB and called out * This is Lost Sheep 1 calling Shepherd...Lost Sheep 1 calling Shepherd, you out there? Come back..." He stopped and waited. Quote
RogerDuke Posted July 6, 2009 Report Posted July 6, 2009 *talking to himself as he grabs a sledge hammer* I suppose if I don't git this fence fixed, that calf and her mama are gonna be ornrier than a rattlesnake without a tail after being cooped up it that barn another day Quote
DaisyMaeDuke Posted July 6, 2009 Author Report Posted July 6, 2009 *calls again cursing when no one answered* CB must be off... *tries for Bo but he wasnt answering either* Course not...why would ya do that... I'm only your cousin... *sighs realizing all the vehicles had been taken- if he wanted to go anywhere, he would have to walk* Quote
RogerDuke Posted July 6, 2009 Report Posted July 6, 2009 Still not realizing that his CB is off, Jesse starts working on the broken fence posts Quote
DaisyMaeDuke Posted July 6, 2009 Author Report Posted July 6, 2009 *sighs, but goes back out to finish the wood, hating that he was so dang reliable all the time* Quote
RogerDuke Posted July 6, 2009 Report Posted July 6, 2009 After working on the fence posts for a half hour, a dark blue Ford Maverick with chrome wheels pulls up to Jesse. Both men in the car weren't very friendly looking. The driver leaves the engine running while the passenger asks Jesse "We're looking for a place called the Duke Farm. You wouldn't know where that might be now would you old-timer?" Jesse responds slowly and suspiciousely "Well now mister I might. It all depends on who's askin'?" Quote
DaisyMaeDuke Posted July 6, 2009 Author Report Posted July 6, 2009 *soon is swinging away at the unfinished wood waiting for Jesse to come back or Bo, hating the way he got blamed for everything* Quote
BoJamesDuke Posted July 6, 2009 Report Posted July 6, 2009 *hears Luke on the CB but doesn't answer, too mad at him to listen to anything he had to say. Soon enough he had pulled up at Cooter's garage, stopping the General outside and heading in to see his friend* Quote
RogerDuke Posted July 6, 2009 Report Posted July 6, 2009 *passenger displays a hand gun but points it at the sky and not directly at Jesse*"This here's who's askin' old man"*driver looks disgusted at his partner* Quote
DaisyMaeDuke Posted July 6, 2009 Author Report Posted July 6, 2009 *sighs just continuing on with work his face flushed wiith anger*C: Hey there buddy roe! *to Bo* Quote
BoJamesDuke Posted July 6, 2009 Report Posted July 6, 2009 Hey Cooter... *says with a sigh and slightly tensed jaw, leaning on the side of the car Cooter was working on* You busy much today? Quote
DaisyMaeDuke Posted July 6, 2009 Author Report Posted July 6, 2009 Not much...you okay? /you look like ya lost yer best friend... Quote
BoJamesDuke Posted July 6, 2009 Report Posted July 6, 2009 *shakes his head* I'm fine...just fine. You think you could help me look the General over? Apparently I dont know what work is and any work I do ain't good enough... Quote
DaisyMaeDuke Posted July 6, 2009 Author Report Posted July 6, 2009 C: *scratches his head* You an Lukas at it again? Quote
BoJamesDuke Posted July 6, 2009 Report Posted July 6, 2009 Don't matter...this time I ain't apologizin'...i'm always the one that's done somethin wrong...can you look the General over with me? Quote
DaisyMaeDuke Posted July 6, 2009 Author Report Posted July 6, 2009 Sure thing... *pops the hood getting right to it* Quote
BoJamesDuke Posted July 6, 2009 Report Posted July 6, 2009 *ducks under the hood with him, having a look too and starting to list things he thought could be wrong with it based on how it sounded and felt when he drove it* Quote
RogerDuke Posted July 6, 2009 Report Posted July 6, 2009 Jesse "Well Mister, around here folks have enough manners to ask politely the first time but since you insist, I reckon I'll let you know that it's the next place on the right just before you get to the intersection" *passenger scowls and motions for the driver to move ahead**Jesse quickly walks to CB and sees that it's not on. Upon his discovery he corrects the problem*"Shepherd to Lost Sheep. Shepherd to Lost Sheep. I sure hope you boys have yer ears on 'cause this is something you need to hear" Quote
DaisyMaeDuke Posted July 6, 2009 Author Report Posted July 6, 2009 *frowns going inside*You got Lost Sheep 1 here Jesse... Quote
BoJamesDuke Posted July 6, 2009 Report Posted July 6, 2009 *doesn't answer the CB but keeps an ear out as he works with Cooter* Quote
RogerDuke Posted July 6, 2009 Report Posted July 6, 2009 I'm out here fixin' them fenceposts and two city boys with guns just stopped by looking for our farm. I gave them directions to the old abandon Baxley place but I reckon they're gonna need about 10 minutes to figure out I snookered 'em. Quote
BoJamesDuke Posted July 6, 2009 Report Posted July 6, 2009 *stands up a little straighter as he listened with a frown* Quote
