Well this wasn't expected to take too long. Sorry for it.

I don't own Dukes of Hazzard.


I drive in on the northwest side of town. It's so beautiful to see the scenery change. I turn and go past the library. I get to the light at Locust St. I go straight to Main. I've missed these roads. I turn and head east till I get almost to the big turn that leads to all the shops. I turn right before I get there. I then turn one more time to get to Lawnview Drive. I park in the driveway of a white one story house. I hop out of the truck after turning off and walk to the front door. I ring to door bell and wait. The door opens and an old lady stands looking at me.

"Howdy do my kin." I say. I never speak like this but it just seemed fun to say it.

"Kendra!" Aunt Ann opens the door and tackles me in a hug. "What are ya doin' here? Ya weren't supposed to visit till tomorrow."

"Well I'm heading down south."

"But ya just came up." She raises an eye brow at me.

"John broke up with me and I realized that I'm happier down south. So I have Uncle Jesse's truck with things that I need for now till I find my own house."

"Well that's just crazy. But I'm glad you're deciding on something that makes ya happy."

"Thanks Aunt Ann." I hug her again.

"Come on in. Settle down. I bet ya need to rest from your long trip." I walk in and it's a lot like the Duke house. I walk into the living room and take a seat on the couch. Aunt Ann joins me.

"Jesse, Daisy, and the guys really would like a visit from ya two." I tell her.

"Yah, we know. We've been thinking of it and tryin' our best."

"That's good. They just wanted me to tell ya." We sit without saying anything for a minute. "Ya know, I really should head back. I've got pictures that will be in Hazzard any day now and I don't want Bo to get them."

"Why not?"

"Because they're of something that I got Bo to do."

"Like what?"

I smile to myself. I tell her the whole story of the race and our wagers. Then about the Boar's Nest and the dress. She laughs hysterically.

"Really?"

"Yep. All true." I look at the clock on the wall. "I really should get goin'." I stand up from the couch.

Aunt Ann does the same as me. "Before ya leave I want to do something for ya."

"Like what?"

"How 'bout a makeover. Give ya a whole different haircut." I look at her like she's crazy. But she's right. I need a fresh look.

"Okay." I let out a sigh as I say it.

"Great." She jumps off the couch and pulls me up. "Ya can follow me and I'll pay for it all." She drags me outside.

I hop in the truck as she gets in her car that was still in the garage. I pull out of the drive way and wait for her to do the same. I follow her to the other end of town to a hair salon that was in what used to be a house. We park in the front and I follow her inside. It looked up-to-date but looked rustic. Aunt Ann grabs my arm and drags me to a station.

"Hello Stacia." She says to a blond haired woman who was writing in a planner.

"Hey Ann. Something wrong?" Stacia says back.

"Nah. My niece is in town and told me she quit her job. So I thought ya can give her a new look."

Stacia looks at my hair and I can tell that she was thinking. "I think I can do it. Have a seat."

I sit down and she lays an apron over me. "I don't want a new hair color. I like the color. So just a cut." I didn't want to have a completely different hair color. I loved the color it is now.

"Alright." She starts to wet my hair and asks for me to take my glasses off. I do that and just know that she wanted to do that so I couldn't see what she was doing.


"Done." Stacia says. It seemed like it took hours but I guess it was only 20-30 minutes. She pulls the apron off and I put my glasses back on. I stare into the mirror with my jaw to the ground. I looked so different. I had side bangs, layers and it went to just below my shoulders. It looked great.

"I love it." I turn and face Aunt Ann. She looked at me like it wasn't even me.

"You look beautiful." She stands up, walks over to me and gives me a hug.

"Thanks."

"I went with something that was different. It's not the style that's in right now but I thought you could be the one to set it."

I stand up and give Stacia a hug. "I will definitely be doin' that. Thank you."

"No problem. And don't worry about it Ann. It's on me."

I turn to her and see that she was pulling out some money. "No. I have to pay."

"There's no need. It's fine."

"Okay. Thanks for everything Stac. See ya in a few weeks." We turn and walk out the door.

I walk to Jesse's truck and Aunt Ann follows. I turn and find her right behind me. "You really do look beautiful. You were hidin' under that boring hair."

"You're right. I was. It was just always easier to have it like that." It made all my mornings fast and easy. I look at my watch and see that it was getting late. "I think I should start my drive back to Hazzard."

Tears weld up in her eyes. She nodded and pulled me into a hug. "I guess so. Be careful."

"I always am. I know the way thanks to you and I know what to avoid."

"Great. We'll try and get down there soon."

"Great." I open the truck door and hop in. "Love ya."

"Love ya too." She waves to me as I start to drive off. The last time I'll drive these roads for a long time.


Back to Hazzard. I feel so better after coming back. I drive straight to the post office in hope that the pictures are done and Bo hasn't gotten to them. I park in front of the office, turn off the truck and walk in.

"Hey Miz. Tisdale. Did the pictures come in?" I asked as I pull out my ID.

"Sure did." She turned around and grabbed a big envelope. I grab a number as she turns back to me. "Number one."

"Right here." I hand her the number and my ID. She studies it for a minute then hands it back to me with the envelope. "Here ya go darlin'. Hope they turned out the way you wanted them."

I give her a big smile as I put my ID away. "I know they did." I grab the envelope and turn to walk out. "Bye."

I walk to the truck and put the envelope under my bag. That was done, but now I need to find a job. I need a newspaper. I look around and see Cooter in the garage. I bet he has a paper. I walk over and Cooter just finishes the car he was working on. He looks up and his jaw drops.

"Hey Coot. I was wondering if ya had a paper from Atlanta." He still had his mouth open. He was so shocked at my look. He nods and heads into the office.

"Who's that pretty thing standing there?" I knew that voice.

I turn around and Bo's jaw instantly drops. Luke walks up behind him and does the same. "That pretty thing is the girl you think of as a sister."

They keep staring and can't do anything. "Here ya go." I turn and Cooter has a paper held out to me. He still has a surprised look on his face and I try to keep from laughing.

"Thanks." I grab it and turn back to the guys. "See you two at home." I say as I walk past them.

I walk to the truck, get in and start laughing. They all looked so funny. I see them talking in the garage and I laugh more. I put the paper in my purse and start up the truck. I can't wait to see Daisy and Jesse's reactions.


Well there it is. I did have a different ending for it but it didn't save. So that is what ya get. Can't promise when the next chapter will be up.
