Author's Notes: I came across a picture of a replica A-team van towing a replica General Lee and that started my brain thinking. What would happen if the A-team joined forces with the Duke Family to bring some justice onto a group of lowlife thugs?

Chapter 7: Hannibal LIWAPCT

"LOOK, JD, Lulu is being held captive in Jeb Wilkins' fishing shack. Some friends of mine are rescuing her right now." Jesse replied.

"Is she all right, Jesse? They haven't hurt my sister have they?" asked Rosco sincerely.

"Near as we could tell she is just fine." Jesse answered while patting Rosco's shoulder.

"That's all well and good Jesse but how did you, and your so called friends, get involved in any of this?" challenged Boss.

Jesse went on to spin a tale that Twiggs tried to sneak out on paying his pool wager to Bo so the boys followed him when he left. That lead them to Lulu. Jesse revealed that Bo and Luke kept tailing Twiggs when he left the shack but their friends stayed to rescue Lulu. Jesse ended his semi truthful yet vague yarn saying, "and I came here to let you know what was happening."

Before Boss could respond Daisy shot into the office. "Uncle Jesse, Luke is on the bar phone saying he needs to talk to you. He sounds worried."

Everyone tumbled over to the phone. Jesse picked up the dangling receiver,

"What is it Luke?"

—AAAAAAAAAAAA—

The A-team stealthily approached the shabby shack. They could hear frustrated voices coming from within.

"Ah Lady will you just be quiet now! I'm sick of hearing you whine."

"I just need to use the privy. Not even a scoundrel like you can be so low as to not allow a lady to see to basic needs."

"I told you, you're gonna wait til my partner gets back."

"I need to go now" Lulu pleaded, then scornfully added, "Partner my foot! He's your boss and you're his lackey."

"I am not! We is equal partners!" shouted the perturbed male.

"Equal partners, not in this life. You can't even make the decision to bring a helpless woman to the privy, without Twiggs' permission." Lulu taunted.

The Team all glanced at each other. "The lady has spunk." commented Murdock

"I hope that spunk doesn't get her hurt. Then I'll have to double squash that sucka!" grumbled BA

'Fine! Just FINE. I'll take you to the outhouse just slam your jaw shut! And remember I've got this here gun. And I ain't afraid to use it." griped the kidnapper.

Seeing their prime lucky opportunity, Hannibal dispatched Face and Murdock to flank the outhouse. He and BA would lurk near the shack entrance to surround the thug and Lulu. Once she was safely in the outhouse, away from the lowlife, they would drop the hammer on him.

—AAAAAAAAAA—

"Uncle Jesse, Twiggs has left the Moonshine Motel. By what the tracker tells me he's headed back to the shack. I can't raise Hannibal and the guys in the CB. They won't know he's coming." Luke urgently announced.

'That's all right Luke. I'll head back there right now with Rosco. You meet us there."

"Uncle Jesse thats the trouble. We've got a flat tire. Bo must have picked up a nail from the parking lot. We're stuck here til Bo finishes swapping tires. Oh and near as we can tell all the computers are here in the motel.'

"That's alright, son. We will go catch Twiggs right now. And that's good information about those items. See you at the shack."

Jesse hung up. He and Daisy ran for his truck and Boss with Rosco in tow crammed into the patrol car. All four set off for the fishing shack.

—AAAAAAAAAA—

As soon as the Team had taken up their positions, the door of the shack creaked open. The escaping light revealed the accomplice shoving a wobbly Lulu Hogg out onto the step and awkwardly forcing her to the outhouse. He kept poking Lulu's back with the barrel of his rifle. On the count of five, after she shut the door, the Team surged forward, guns blazing.

The startled thug whirled around trying to see all four adversaries at once. He managed a frantically aimed shot that cleared Murdock by a country mile. This gave BA the open space to slug him right in his scrawny jaw. The Big Guy quickly followed that blow with two more cannon like punches to his rib cage. The guy was down. Hannibal claimed the rifle and jammed his foot against the scumbag's windpipe.

"We don't like lowlifes who terrorize innocent women. If you've got any intelligence at all, you'll stay frozen where you lay."

Meanwhile Lulu had burst out of the outhouse. Face had swiftly grasped her hand and lead her away from the fray. Murdock provided them cover.

Once the dust settled she shakily asked, "Who are you guys? What's happening?"

"We are just some concerned citizens, Mrs. Hogg, and you've just been rescued." replied Hannibal."Now once we get this creep tied up, we will lead you back to our van and take you home."

Before Hannibal had finished speaking Murdock was binding the thugs hands behind his back then for double security, Murdock lashed his arms to his body.

"You fellas are gonna regret this! My partner...he's gonna get you for interfering in things that ain't your business."

"Don't be counting on that Pip. Your boss won't give too wags about a nameless lackey like you." taunted Hannibal.

"Hey! I've got a name! It's Donnie Floyd." replied the petulant weasel.

"Ah Pip, it doesn't really matter. Not where you're going, under a kidnapping conviction." snarled Hannibal.

The six people began to make their way back to the van. Murdock took point. Face lead Lulu. BA had custody of the prisoner and Hannibal was at rear guard.

"How'd you all find me and know who I am?" Lulu asked Face.

"We've become friends with the Duke family, ma'am, they told us your name. And we figured out that Twiggs had kidnapped you so we followed him here."

"I don't understand what he wanted with me. Maybe he just figured to collect a ransom from my JD. But my brother, Rosco, he's the sheriff and he's gonna make Twiggs and this Donnie Floyd pay for what they've done." Lulu rambled, mainly to calm herself.

"You can work that all out just as soon as we get you home, Mrs. Hogg." Face responded soothingly.

Their hike back to the van was going smoothly until they were almost to the riverbank. That's when Murdock signaled a full halt. No one liked what they saw in the clearing. There were three vehicles with their van. Jesse's truck, a patrol car, and Twiggs' puck-up. Rosco was laying on the ground, unconscious. Jesse and Boss were lined up against the cop car with their hands in the air. Most disturbing of all, Daisy was being held hostage by Twiggs. He had his arm wrapped around her neck and a gun to her head.
