Bo had climbed up the ladder to the hayloft and fell asleep playing with some hay. When Daisy was finished helping out she decided to look for little Bo. When Daisy walked into the barn she thought she heard something up in the hayloft that sounded like someone snoring softly. She climbed the ladder to the hay loft and was surprised to see her little cousin sleeping there. Softly snoring half covered in hay. She decided to wake him up and make him explain why he took off last night.

But before she could wake him he turned over and she saw something that nearly caused her to loose her balance. Where there should've been human ears she saw cat ears on the top of his head. Daisy hesitated for a few minutes before she started to wake her cousin up. She gently started to shake his shoulder.

"Bo, Bo honey wake up." The only response she got was a sleepy yawn. Bo turned over again and layed on his stomach. Daisy saw something else that almost made her loose her balance. In addition to the cat ears, she saw a long fluffy tail that really freaked her out. Daisy finally lost her balance and the ladder started to go backwards.

Just before she hit the ground, something caught her fall or rather someone. After she finally opened her eyes she looked up and saw her baby cousin holding her hay stuck in his hair, tail, and clothes. She was still so shocked at his new ears and tail, that she didn't notice he was the one that caught her. She just sat in his arms staring at him completely in shock.

"Daisy are you ok? That was quite a fall." Bo said. He hadn't even realized he was human again or at least mostly human.

"B-Bo y-your ears." Daisy said pointing to his head.

"Huh? What about 'em?"

"T-they're c-cat ears." Daisy said still not believing what she saw. Bo sat her down and she just kept staring at him.

"Ummm… Daisy are you ok? And what do you mean my ears look like cat ears?"

"I-if you d-don't believe me go l-look in the m-mirror." Daisy said. Bo walked over to the mirror that was kept in the barn. He was just as shocked to see that he no longer was a cat, but that he also had cat ears. And something else was different. He turned around and saw he had a tail. He was so shocked by his new looks that he fainted.

Daisy ran over to him and caught him just before his head made contact with the dirt floor. Luke came in just as Daisy layed Bo down on the ground. Luke ran over to where his cousins were at. Luke was so worried that he didn't even notice Bo's ears or tail.

"What happened?"

"He looked in the mirror and fainted."

"Huh, why?"

"Take a look at his head." Daisy pointed to her cousins head.

"Good Lord! What the heck? Hey wait a minute those ain't real."

"They're as real as you and me. When he wakes up find out yourself."

"Ok I will. So where did you find him?"

"He was asleep up in the hayloft."

"Well lets go tell Uncle Jesse and Jessica that we found him." Luke said as he picked his unconscious cousin up. He carried Bo up to the house and waited for Daisy to open the screen door. After Daisy opened the door, Luke walked in and layed Bo on the couch. Jesse and Jessica walked into the living room and were shocked to see Bo laying on the couch.

"Daisy, Luke what in tarnation happened?"

"Daisy said she found him sleeping in the hayloft and when he woke up he looked in the mirror in the barn and fainted." Luke explained. Jessica was the first one to notice that Bo's ears were different and that he had a tail. She motioned to her uncle and cousins what was wrong.

"Uncle Jesse, ummm I think you should see this." Jessica said pointing to her brother's blonde head.

"Wh-what in the world is that?"

"I think he's trying to pull a prank." Jessica said.

"Well if he was trying to pull a prank, then why in the world did he faint when he looked in the mirror?" Daisy asked.

"Well it could all be a part of his plan to scare the living day lights outta us." Jessica said. "He's good at that." She finished.

"True, but I don't think he would do something like this though, I've known Bo almost all my life. Ever since he was only six months old. That's when he came here to live with us after his folks died." Luke said.

"Well let's just wait for him to wake up and then we'll ask him about it and where in the world he's been all night." Jesse said to his nieces and nephew.

"Ok Uncle Jesse." The three cousins said in unison.

About an hour later Bo finally woke up.

"Well it's about time you decided to join the world of the living again little cousin."

"Huh? Luke what the heck do you mean?"

"Well Daisy said that she found you asleep in the barn and that you looked in the mirror and fainted." Luke said trying to hold back the laugh that was building up inside him. Bo looked at his cousin, his face beet red. Bo never did like it when he fainted especially over something he don't remember.

"Can you tell me exactly why I fainted?"

"Oh you can't remember?"

"No I just plumb out forgot."

"Well feel the top of your head you'll find out."

Bo did like he was told, and much to his surprise he felt pointy ears where there hadn't been before.

"Luke wh-what the heck is goin' on?" Bo said, panic starting to show in his voice.

"It's ok Bo."

"Your telling me! You don't have cat ears coming out the top of yer head! And yer telling me it's ok?"

"Just calm down Bo."

"Why should I?"

"'Cause you don't know why it happened and getting upset could make it worse."

"I guess your right. Hehehe ya know I bet I do look really strange."

"Oh it took you this long to figure that one out?" Luke said sarcastically.

"Cute."

"Oh I almost forgot a couple things."

"Hmmm what's that?"

"Well in addition to the ears you also got tail to go with 'em."

"WHAT!"

"Just calm down and let me finish."

"Ok fine just hurry up will ya?"

"Ok. Uncle Jesse and your sister seem to think your trying to pull a prank. And Uncle Jesse said that you also have a lot of explaining to do as to where you were last night."

"Luke you wouldn't believe me if I told you."

"Try me."

"Ok well I didn't run off last night."

"Well where were you then?"

"Just let me finish. I went into our room after me and sis exchanged a few words. I layed down on my bed and must've fallen asleep, cause the next thing I know Daisy was in there and she was holding me. Saying how cute I was. I thought I was dreaming at first. Then I realized something and jumped from her arms and ran into the bathroom.I got on the counter and looked in the mirror, and sure enough I was a cat. She took me into town and you wouldn't believe all the cute girls that gave me all kinds of attention. Like the words of the not-so-great Rosco P. Coltrane 'Khew khew I love it, I love it.'" Luke couldn't but laugh at his cousins sad attempt to imitate Rosco.

"Then when me and Daisy were on our way back from town, we saw you and the General Lee coming down the road. You and Daisy had a conversation and then you turned the General around and came home.

Daisy sat me down and I took off to the barn and after a while I got bored and went up into the hayloft and I must've fallen asleep, 'cause the next thing I know Daisy was falling and I caught her. And well you know the rest."

"……., Ya know that has got to be the most ridiculous story I ever heard." Luke said giving his cousin a look that said yeah right.

"I'm serious Luke. Something strange is goin' on here."

"Yea well lets go find Uncle Jesse and you tell him your story."

"Luke tell me, have I ever lied to you before?"

"Ummm well no."

"Then why would I start now?"

"You got a point there. Well lets go tell Uncle Jesse."

"Ok I just hope he's as understanding as you were."

"I'm sure he will be."

"I hope so." Bo said to his cousin. Not really wanting to go find his uncle right now. Bo, Daisy, and Luke walked out the front door. Jesse was just finishing unloading his pickup truck.

'At least Jessica ain't out here right now. That's all I need is to have her laugh at me.' Bo thought to himself. 'Or worse. God only knows what she would do.' As luck would have it, Bo's older sister came out of the barn and walked over to her cousins and seemed to ignore Bo's presence and walked into the house. It wasn't until she came back out that she noticed her brother's ears and tail.

"AAAAHHHHH! IT'S A DEMON!" Jess yelled almost loud enough to wake the dead. Her sudden out burst made Bo, Luke, Daisy, and Jesse all turn around.

"AAAAHHHHH! IT LOOKS LIKE MY BROTHER! HELP THE DEMONS TAKEN OVER MY BROTHER'S BODY AND NOW ITS WORKING ON MY FAMILY!"

"Calm down Jessica its ok." Luke tried to comfort his younger cousin.

"Jess it's me Bo. I'm not a demon I just had a weird night last night and…"

"What have you done with my brother?" Jess yelled as she started running after her brother. Bo took off as fast as his long legs could carry him. But it was no use. Jessica had him down on the ground, sitting on her brother's chest determined to get him to talk.

"Ok you what have you done with my baby brother?"

"Jess it's me." Bo tried to explain. But found it hard to talk with his older sister sitting on him. Jessica easily out matched her brother in speed, strength, and intelligence. Not to mention that she was about seven inches taller than him.

Not wanting Jess to kill her brother before they celebrated their birthdays, since even though Jessica was 16 and Bo was 14 they oddly enough had the same birthdays which was December 3rd. How it happened no one has a clue. Luke and Jesse ran over to them before they killed each other.

"Jessica Michelle Duke! Beauregard James Duke! Up and center now!" Their uncle had taught them two specifically to answer immediately when he said that.

"Yes sir Uncle Jesse." Both siblings said at once. Jess and Bo stood up and brushed themselves off.

"Now then I want you two to git in the house right now and sit on the couch and stay there until I come inside then you to will have some explaining to do. Now GIT!" Jesse ordered.

"YES SIR!" They both said and took off towards the house.

"'sigh' What am I gonna do with them two?" Jesse said mostly to himself, but loud enough to be heard by Luke and Daisy.

"I don't know Uncle Jesse." Luke said to his frustrated uncle.

well that was quite a surprise that Bo got wasn't it? boy i sure would hate to be in his shoes right now wouldn't you? well i'll get the next chapter up a.s.a.p. so stick around ya hear?
