DOH: ch 8 Pushed To The Edge
Jesse woke everyone up like he promised, and they all sat down for dinner, and packed once they finished. Before they left the farm to put their plan into action, Daisy suggested that they pray for safety; something Jesse had already done. Everyone thought it was a great idea, and they sat in their vehicles before leaving and prayed for a good ten minutes. Finishing their prayers, they all took off; Bo and Luke in the General Lee, Daisy in Dixie and Jesse in his pickup.
Bo and Luke were headed to Cooters garage to pick up a quad, so Bo would have one too since according to plan Luke was supposed to show up alone in the General and Bo would be following quietly behind him on a quad. Daisy was heading up to the Tri-County hospital to make sure that they had an ambulance ready, and a fire truck at hand in case something back fired on the boys. While Jesse went straight to the State Police and explained what was happening, and also drove down to the Hazzard Jail house, hoping to get Rosco and Boss to help out.
After dropping Bo off, Luke took off hoping he could find Benson before he was contacted to meet up with them; by now Luke was sure they were aware that I was able to drive yet once again and was alone like the note requested.
"Calling Luke Duke of Hazzard County, do you have your ears on out there Pal?" Luke froze as whoever was talking to him called him pal, he assumed it was Benson but was wrong. "Luke here what can I do for you?" "Well Sgt Duke, I have someone here who would like to meet up with you; alone. Problem is, since this is only his second time to Hazzard here and my first, well we don't know the town very well. Luckily your little brother Judd here is helping us. He says that the Rocky curb over by Eagles Point is a good place to meet. You down?"
"I'll be there, 2p.m sharp." Luke demanded the time since Judd called the place. "Now Luke, your friend said 3p.m is better for him to work magic, seen as we are still new around here. We'll be up there when we get there but you better not be there until 3 unless you call ahead you understand me?" "Yes, I said I'll be there so I will. Bye now"
Luke was getting frustrated with this character, guessing from how Bo spoke, it must've been Lee.
"Benson…." Luke rolled the name of his tongue in pure disgust "If you lay one hand on anyone other than me, I promise you that you'll pay dearly." Interrupting his thought was Cooter "Crazy C calling the famous Law Sheep one. We chicks were told by mother hen to switch over to radio 4" Luke knew that was code for channel 16. "Sure thing Crazy C, tell mother hen I'll listen to that station right away. Over"
Switching channels was easy enough, until a bunch of questions were thrown at him. "Luke; where are you meeting them at? Are you sure this will work? Luke I want to be with you when you get there I don't want you hurt! Son, are you alright?" Until one last message came through: "Boys stop! You are probably confusing my poor cousin."
"Thanks Daisy, now I am meeting them at the Rocky Curb over by Eagles point at 3, I am going alone, I am fine, and I am positive it'll work, at least I hope it will. Bo once again I am going alone." Luke spoke answering all questions and putting Bo's constant complaint to rest.
"Let's meet at Peach Tree Hill, it is only half an hour away from the spot where I am supposed to meet them." Luke suggested since he wanted to get a head start out there, and wanted a nice peaceful drive, but also noticed he had been doing a lot of talking over the CB, more than natural when there were a group of people involved.
Everyone agreed and met up there; it was now 2 and they had half an hour to spare just as Luke was arriving. Luke and all other drivers switched the CB back to channel 11, so Luke could contact Benson. "Luke Duke; are you around your CB still?!" Lee said mostly screaming through the CB. "I am here, I had my CB shut off for a while so the police didn't come looking for me and actually find me."
"Very well, we were letting you know that according to your brother we are at that meeting spot, you have an hour to get up here." Lee spoke as calm as possible with it being a threat. "I'll be there in half an hour if that is alright with my pal who wants to see me." Bo laughed at the way Luke had spoken the word pal, though he knew things were serious, it just seemed hilarious to him and he didn't know why; getting a dirty look from his female cousin, and from his uncle; Bo stopped laughing and was serious again.
"I ain't your Pal Luke Duke, and fine I'll see you in half an hour. Bye now."Benson had replied seen as in his point of view Lee was taking way too long.
Luke turned to the group he was with and spoke with determination. "Alright, let's save Edd and Judd, and let's do it safely." With that everyone took off to take their spots to be ready to jump into action whenever until Benson and Lee were locked up again.
