A/N: Hey, I know I don't give many of these but I want to now. I am sooooooooooooooooo sorry for not updating regularly but I have just been so busy, and I'm not use to being an author for this but I will start updating more regularly. I'm hoping once a week! One way to improve on this is reviews. If I don't start getting some reviews I might not continue the story and it hasn't even started getting good yet. I could really use support from my readers and ideas and suggestions are always welcome. I love it! I love it!-Anyone get that refferance? In my story though if you haven't figure it out I added original characters, Kristy and Marybeth. I came up with these. Sorry for the long A/N and I will update more if I start getting reviews or messages because they make me happy! Again on with this chapter!

Disclaimer: I do not own Dukes of Hazzard or anyone it's Characters. Sad face I would love to own Bo and Luke ;) However I do own Kristy and Marybeth and any other characters I make up!

I climbed down the flight of stairs and saw people gathered around the table. There was an older gentleman sitting at the head of one side of the table with Aunt Marybeth opposite of him. I saw Bo take his seat on one of the other sides of the table next to a dark haired man, who I guessed to be a couple years older than Bo. I sat across from Bo and the dark haired man.

"Well, Hello sweetie. Did you fall asleep up there?" Marybeth asked.

"Yes, I must have been tired from the long trip." I replied.

"Well, that's just fine" She said. "Let me introduce you to our dinner guests." Marybeth started to point to the strangers around the table. She pointed to the older gentleman fist. "This here is Jesse Duke, he is a good old friend of mine" "Jesse, this is my niece Kristina Lee"

"Well it sure is glad to meet ya Kristina" Jesse said with a grin.

"Nice to meet you Mr. Duke" I replied trying to remember my manners when it comes to talking to my elders.

"Oh, call me Jesse." He replied with a chuckle.

"Kristina you have already met Bo. This young handsome man next to him is his cousin Luke." She said gesturing to the dark haired man. He was definitely handsome with his tan skin and his broad muscular upper body.

"Nice to meet you Kristina" Luke said with an outstretched hand.

"Nice to meet you" I said reaching and shaking his hand giving him a smile.

"Well now that everyone is introduced, let's eat. Luke and I are starved." Bo said reaching for his fork.

"Now Bo, you know we must thank the Lord for the meal he has provided us with." Jesse scolded.

"Yes Uncle Jesse" Bo replied folding his hands and bowing his head.

Marybeth had Jesse give the blessing and I wasn't really listening. I was too busy admiring how handsome both of the men across from me were. I was marveling over which one was more handsome when I was brought out of my daze by everyone saying 'amen' and I followed same with a faint "amen".

"So Kristina, where are you from?" Luke asked trying to start a conversation while grabbing his food.

"Um, I'm from Milwaukee." I replied. "Bo, can you pass the mashed potatoes?"

"Yeah sure" Bo passed me the potatoes and followed up with "You came all the way south from Wisconsin?"

"Yeah, it was a mighty long bus ride" I replied getting small giggles from the others sitting at the table. There was a short awkward silence for a while before Marybeth finally broke it.

"So boys did y'all figure out my tractor yet?" She asked.

"Well, Bo and I are trying to figure that out yet. You see that ole tractor of yours has seen better days. In my opinion it's ready for the scrap heap, but we know you can't afford a new one. We haven't figured it out yet, but we are gonna look at it after supper." Luke answered Marybeth.

"Well I thank you boys for putting so much work into it." She responded.

"Hey Luke, why don't we run into town to Cooter's and bring him out here to help? He might be able to figure it out faster." Bo told his cousin.

"That'll work" Luke agreed liking the idea.

"Who's Cooter?" I asked

"He owns the local Garage in town. He's a pretty good friend of ours." Bo answerd.

"Now boys, who isn't a good friend of y'alls? Marybeth asked.

The boys exchanged an inquiring look before they both said, "Rosco" with a laugh.

"You mean the sheriff?" I asked before I followed up with. "He seems pretty nice, a little strange, but decent."

The boys both started laughing and Jesse and Marybeth each gave small chuckle.

"What?" I asked not understanding what it was that I said to make everyone laugh.

"Yeah Rosco is the sheriff of Hazzard county, but nice and decent aren't words I would use to completely use to describe him. He can be pretty sleazy and corrupt." Luke responded.

"Now boys let's not talk bad about others while we're eating no matter how true it may be." Jesse said obviously proving how wise he was.

"Yes sir." The both said

We all finished our supper without having much of a conversation. A few words were exchanged here and there, but nothing much until Marybeth spoke again.

"Well, in honor of Kristina's arrival I baked some cherry pie, her favorite." Marybeth chided grinning and getting up to place it on the table. "Who would like a slice? Bo?" she asked.

"Yes ma'am" Bo answered grabbing his slice.

"Luke? Jesse?" She asked and they both took some. I grabbed my slice and we ate our pie in silence.

"Well Bo, shall we go out and see if we can't figure out what's with the damned tractor." Luke asked.

"Yeah might as well." He responded and the two went outside.

"Supper was mighty fine Marybeth, but I must be getting back to the farm. I have some work to finish up." Jesse Duke spoke up suddenly.

"Alright Jesse, thank you for coming over." Marybeth said

"Thank you for having me. Nice to meet you Kristina. I will have to send my niece Daisy over to meet you; y'all are probably close in age." He said.

"Nice to meet you too, Mr. Duke." I said and he gave me a funny look so I quickly corrected myself with "I mean Jesse" With that he walked out the door.

"Kristina I have some more work I gotta do in the garden can you do the dishes?" she asked.

"Yes ma'am" I responded to my Aunt. With that I set off to do the dishes.

After I finished washing, drying, and putting the dishes away I decided to go out to the barns to see if the guys needed any help. Mainly because I was bored and I felt weird just sitting alone in the empty house.

As I reached the barn I saw Bo sitting on top of the tractor messing with something and Luke underneath it.

"Hey, Boys!" I greeted as I reached them.

"Well hey!" they greeted me back. "What you up too?" Luke asked.

"Oh nothing, just kind of bored out of my mind" I replied earning a grin from Luke and a chuckle from Bo.

"Luke, I think it's time we called Cooter on the CB." Bo called down.

"Yeah you're right." He agreed. Luke walked over to an orange clunker car with a black 01 on the side. Looked sort of like a racecar. He reached in and grabbed the CB.

"Lost sheep to Cooter, come in Cooter, it's Luke. Ya got your ears on?"

"Breaker one, Breaker one, I may be crazy but I ain't dumb, craaaaazy Cooter comin' atcha"

"Hey Cooter we need some mechanical help on a tractor. Ya wanna come out and help?"

"Well sure Luke. Out at ya'lls farm?"

"No we're at Marybeth Matthews' farm"

"Alright, I'll be there in about 20 minutes"

"Thanks Cooter, over and out"

"So your friend is coming?" I asked Luke.

"Ya, hopefully he can figure out what it needs." He replied.

"Well, while we wait for him maybe you and Bo can tell me a bit about y'all and this place." He agreed and we walked back to Bo.

"Cooter on his way?" Bo asked as we reached him.

"Ya, he should be here in about twenty" Luke answered.

"Good because I ain't have much of a clue what else to try." Bo got off the tractor and we all just sat around and started talking.

"So Luke how old are you?" I asked

"20" he responded.

"Oh, so you're out of school. What do you do?"

"I'm in the Marines. Right now I'm on leave for a few months I go back in September."

"Oh, well that's neat." I said. What a stupid thing to say. 'Oh neat.' Stupid.

"So, what is with the orange car?"

"What do you mean?" asked Bo.

"Well, it's orange for one." I responded.

"Well, when we found this car, we wanted it to race. We spent two days fixing her up and we were gonna put some paint on her. All Cooter had was a reddish orange paint. Therefore the car is orange." Luke answered my question.

"Why is there an 01 on the sides?" I asked.

"Well we decided that was gonna be the story of our life, you start with nothing and it becomes number one." Bo answered. I guess I didn't understand the significance.

"Alright then explain the confederate flag on top." I stated.

"Oh, the stars and bars?" Bo asked and I nodded. "It's a rebel flag and it just fit."

"So I'm guessing you named it the General Lee since it's written on the car, why?"

"With the rebel flag and the Dixie horn in it, Uncle Jesse thought it up and it just fit." Luke stated.

We sat and talked for a little more, not about much, just simply little things about town, when a tow truck turned into the driveway. The truck looked a little rusty and mighty dirty, but it looked like it ran pretty decent. The truck pulled up and parked right next to the General Lee. An average dark haired man stepped out of the truck covered in grease and oil. Must be a mechanic. I thought to myself.

"Hey, Cooter" Luke greeted.

"Well, Howdy Luke, Bo" He greeted back "Now why didn't y'all tell me there was a pretty young gal here, I would have washed up a bit." Cooter responded giving me a smile.

"This is Marybeth's niece Kristina and she's just a kid Cooter." Bo responded. Wow that hurt.

"Nice to meet you Cooter" I said shaking his hand. "And by the way I'm not a kid" I said giving Bo a strange look "I'm only a grade behind Bo here."

"Well nice to meet you Kristina and age has nothing to do with beauty" Cooter said putting on the charm and making me blush.

"That's Cooter, always the charmer" Luke said sarcastically shaking Cooter. "Now can you look at the tractor before it gets too dark." And with that the boys went to the tractor. They looked at it for another hour when it started to get really dark and the light from the barn didn't help their work much.

"Well here's your problem. This here is plugged" Cooter said pointing to a part that I had no hope in figuring out. "Here I got a tool in the truck that'll fix that."

Cooter returned with a long thin pole looking thing and a cloth. Cooter then set to unclog the tractor. "All right Bo start it up" Cooter commanded. The tractor made a loud noise and started. Bo road it around for a bit and then shut it down.

"Well thank you Cooter." Bo said hopping off of the tractor, and hitting Cooter on the back.

"Are you boys still working on that tractor?" Marybeth yelled from the porch before she started walking over to the boys and me.

"We just finished Marybeth, thanks to Cooter here" Bo answered her.

"Well thank you Cooter" Marybeth said. "It's getting mighty late you boys should probably head home."

"Yes ma'am we're gonna head out." Luke said "Bo and I will both be here around 9 tomorrow."

"Alright boys goodnight, Kristina I'm going to bed. I will see you in the morning" She said.

"Goodnight Aunt Marybeth." I said and gave her a hug. She walked back into the house and we talked for a bit before they went home.

"So Bo, Luke, what are y'all doing tomorrow night?" Cooter asked.

"Probably going Juking at the Boar's Nest" Bo responded.

"What's Juking?" I asked.

"You've never been Juking?" Cooter asked half shocked.

"Dancing, you wanna come with us tomorrow night?" Bo asked.

"I'd love to." I said excitedly.

"Well, Luke we best be getting back to the farm before Uncle Jesse gets mad." Bo said to his cousin.

"Yeah your right, goodnight Cooter. Goodnight Kristina, we'll see ya tomorrow." Said Luke.

"Goodnight y'all" said Bo.

"Goodnight boys see you tomorrow" I said.

"Night y'all" Cooter said to them before they left in the General Lee. "Goodnight beautiful" He said to me and I could hear Bo and Luke laugh at that. The obviously heard Cooter's remark.

"Goodnight Cooter" I said and walked to the house. I heard them all pull away in their vehicles and I was left alone again in the house. Well not alone Marybeth was asleep in her room. I walked up the stairs and into the bathroom. I washed up and brushed my teeth before I went into my room across the hall. I changed into my nightgown and tucked myself into bed. Before I drifted off to sleep.

Crash! The truck struck the side of the car, and pushed it into oncoming traffic. The car then got plowed into by the oncoming traffic causing it to flip and roll into the ditch on the side of the interstate.

I woke up with a sob "When will the nightmares end?" I asked myself aloud as I had for the past few nights. After sobbing for a while I fell into a dreamless sleep.
