Chapter 2
An hour later Luke and Bo were still sitting in the waiting room of the Tri-county Hospital. They weren't going to leave her when she was hurt and alone, Uncle Jesse had taught them better than that.
"Luke"
"Ya Bo"
"What do ya think happened to her?" he asked as they listened to the radio that was in the waiting room .
" I dunno? She was banged up pretty bad though." Luke replied. There was silence in the room for a minute or two. Bo finally broke the silence
"hey Luke you don't think that she's that missing girl from the crash this morning? Do ya?" he asked excitedly. Luke gave him a questioning look.
"What are you talking about? I heard that the family in that truck died." he replied looking at his cousin.
"Well while I was helping Uncle Jesse fix the oil pump on the pick-up for his trip to Atlanta we over heard Boss talking to some guy named Max Jason." Bo said excitedly.
"so what does Bosses conversation with some guy named Max Jason have to do with this/" Luke asked now thoroughly confused from what his cousin was saying.
"It was over the CB and Max said that he was offering a reward for the return of his godchild who was involved in a crash this morning and had disappeared. He said that he was in Hazzard and that he would be in touch." Bo said now sitting on the edge of his seat. Luke stared to get it now. They had found her about a mile from the crash site and she did look like she'd been through the mill a couple of times. Luke was about to make a sarcastic comment about Bo actually figuring something out on his own when the doctor walked in.
"Hello boys." he said cheerily. The boys immediately stood up eager for news.
"She gonna be ok doc?" Luke asked "well Mr. Duke she has a slight concussion, 20 stitches over her right eye and some severe bruising on her right shoulder." he said "and aside from some minor cuts and bruises she was quite lucky and should be fine. Your sister should be waking up soon"
Whoa this guys got a fly in his ointment he thinks that she's the Dukes sister. Some one needs to set him straight.
"Wait a minute Doc. She's not our sister." Luke said holding his hands up.
"Ya we found her walking on the highway about a mile from the Hazzard county line." Bo chimed in "we've never seen her before in our lives." the doctor pulled something out of his pocket and handed it to Luke. Bo peered over his cousins shoulder to see. It was a wallet and a silver pocket knife.
"Here's what we took from her pockets. There's a drivers permit a school ID, and what I assume are pictures of her parents." He said. Luke pulled out the drivers permit.
"Bo! Bo look at this?" Luke said handing the license to him. Bo took it and scanned it.
"Her her name's" he paused "Abby Lynn DUKE!"Bo said his eyes widening. Luke nodded also in astonishment. "Do you think that just maybe there's another family named Duke"
Wow two Duke family's. I don't know if there's enough room for another Duke in Hazzard county.poor Boss would have a heartattack.
"Think about it Bo do you really think that there can be another family named Duke?" Luke asked
"Guess your right. Can you imagine what Boss would say if there where two Duke families." Bo joked.
"Ya he'd probably have a heart attack." Luke said with a smile.
Boy, they really had me going there for a minute. Luke's right there cant be another family named Duke. That would be like the cows crowin at sun-up and chickens layin' down when its gonna rain.
"Besides" Luke said pulling out the pictures of what had to be her parents. " look at her she looks a bit like us and Daisy But she's definitely her fathers child. I can also see her mother in her eyes." Luke said handing her school ID and the pictures of her parents to Bo. Bo looked them over and agreed. Her put the wallet in his back pocket and Luke stuck the pocket knife on his belt.
"So she's related to us but we don't know how." Bo said as he and Luke followed the doctor to Abby's room. "Hey I got an idea." Bo said suddenly causing a passing by nurse to jump.
"Oh no Bo's got an idea." Luke said playfully giving his baby cousin a shove.
" very fumy Luke, but really," Bo pleaded "Why don't we just do a back ground check." Luke gave him a questioning look. "All it would take is a call to the records-hall in Nashville (that was the address on the ID)"
"Ya know cousin, I never thought that I'd see the day when you'd have a good idea." playfully grabbing his cousin and ruffling his blonde hair. The doctor smiled and went to do the background check.
"Very funny Luke." Bo said his voice had a mock annoyed tone but he couldn't help smiling. They quietly entered Abby's room. They saw her sleeping on the white hospital bed, the nurses had taken the liberty of washing and re-braiding her hair. There where some stitches over her eye covered by a band-aid.
Ya know now that we can se her in person I see the resemblance that they were talking about.
She had light brown hair, and a build like Daisy's. her eyes were kind of set in like Luke's but she had that loveable demeanor that Bo had. It just seemed apparent even though she was asleep. The boys sat down in chairs on either side of the bed and waited in silence for the doctor to return. They didn't have to wait long.
"O.k. boys here we go." he said handing the boys a sheet of paper with some writing on it. "That's directly from the records hall in Nashville"
"Look" Luke said pointing to something on the sheet. "It says that her moms name is Courtney Duke. Hey Uncle Jesse's on here"
"What?" Bo asked taking the sheet from Luke so he could get a better look at it. "It says that she's his sister." Bo said in astonishment. "But wait how does that work? Her birth name is Duke and it shows here that she's married and that they had one child, Abby." Bo said confused
"I think that I've heard of this before, about when the husband takes the wives last name.' Luke said " but I've only heard of that happening when the wife was the only child of her family. I don't know why they did it here but they must have had a good reason." Bo took the picture out of her wallet. He read the back of the picture of the woman.
"Courtney Duke, May 17. I Love You Mom"
"Excuse me boys." the doctor cut in "but I've gotta run. I do have other patients"
"sure doc." Bo said shaking his hand
"She can leave when she wakes up." he said
"thanks." Luke said also shaking his hand. The doctor turned and left.
"So according to that paper her mom is Uncle Jesse's sister wich would make her our-"Luke started
"cousin." Bo finished "how come we never heard of her or her family before.?" Bo ventured almost not believing what he was saying.
"well I'm gonna call Uncle Jesse, fill him I about this and find out why we never heard of her." Luke said getting up and walking towards the Phone that was in the room. He was about to pick it up and bring it back over when Bo said suddenly
"Hey Luke!" Luke turned around "She's wakin up."
