Dukes of Hazzard belongs to Warner Bros. I only own characters you don't recognize. Now, even though I live in California, I have no idea about the prison systems out here, so just bear with me.
SACREMENTO, CALIFORNIA
In a women's lockup, Melinda Chambers looked around furtively. She had to plan this just right. She didn't want to get caught.
"Pssst! Pssst!" a voice called. Melinda turned around to see one of her best friends, Susan Reemer.
"Hey, Suze. Whatcha got for me?" Melinda asked softly.
"Hazzard Gazette, just like you asked," Susan answered in the same tone. Susan handed the paper to her friend, who skimmed it with interest.
"So, Bo's going to be doing a little racing in Hazzard, County," Melinda smirked. Well, well, well. Isn't that quaint? she thought to herself. She couldn't wait to see him again. So they'd had a little misunderstanding. It was no big deal. She'd make him come around. A bell buzzed and the two women went on their way. The day progressed until it was midafternoon. That was when Melinda made her move. She looked around to see that all of the guards were preoccupied with other inmates. Her brows furrowed in confusion. What was going on? Then, she caught site of Susan, who gave her a thumbs up. The woman grinned. Of course. Susan was giving her the perfect escape. Melinda darted off. She sneaked away to the prison parking lot. She broke into one of the vans and started the engine. The sound of a running engine caused the guards to look up.
"HEY! HEY!" they shouted together. They started after her, but the other inmates intervened. Melinda laughed as she maneuvered her way out of the yard. One of the guards ran in front of the bus and pointed a gun at her. Melinda just swerved around the woman and raced off. As she left the premises, she heard a siren, shouts, and cheers.
"Yeah! Go, girl!" Susan encouraged. Melinda laughed as she drove away. Soon, Bo would be hers again. And that's all that mattered.
