*This story was co-written by a friend on the internet Suzanne.  It takes place after Twisted 1, you have to read it to understand this one. There is NO X-files in this one.*

    It started again. Six months after it ended the evil returned to Hazzard. However, the Dukes had nothing to do with it this time. Two strangers who never heard of Hazzard or met  each other before helped the evil return. During this time the Duke cousins were dealing with  Jesse's death for the first time since it happened and the fact that Hazzard was very different. Rosco was now Boss of Hazzard and sometimes sheriff. Luke was now running the family. He was the oldest so he assumed the responsibility without a second thought. Plus his Marine training helped him become a good leader. The Dukes were still young looking even though the evil left six months ago. They continued with the normal human aging process so they did not age rapidly like one would expect after losing their immortality.
     It was a typical Hazzard summer day. Bo and Luke were driving to the Boar's Nest as usual to meet Cooter for a few beers. Despite all they had been through, the boys were happy.  Things were starting to be like they always had been. The Duke cousins had convinced themselves that a serial killer killed all those who were no longer present in Hazzard anymore.  As they drove along they sang the words to "Take it Easy" by the Eagles. Suddenly, Bo stopped and stared straight at the road ahead of him. A picture formed in his mind. It was the dark, stormy night when Luke tried to kill him. It was a memory, very vivid of when Luke threw him across the room and Bo hit the wall and cut his arm.
    "Bo?" Luke asked.  "You ok?"
Bo continued to stare ahead and rubbed the back of his neck. "Yeah, I'm fine." Bo replied  " I got that headache again."
    "All right, then. See if you can hurry it up. I'd like to get there while I'm young." Luke said.
    "Cute" Bo said.  He still was pale. He hated having to lie to Luke but he could never tell anyone what actually happened. For about the last two months Bo and been having flashbacks.  They were always about the night when Luke was totally possessed and almost beat him to death. Sometimes they lasted seconds while other times they lasted up to five minutes. It bothered Bo but the cousins and Rosco had made a pact never to speak of the evil that consumed the town, of the sacrifices and of how Enos, Boss, Lulu and Cletus died among the many others.
    At a bus stop in Louisville, Kentucky the two strangers boarded the same bus headed for the same place, Hazzard County, Georgia. They both were young girls in their early twenties.  Lexie got on first struggling with her duffel bag. She took a window seat near the back on the right hand side. As she slumped down, her dark brown hair fell in her face. Kristina boarded soon after. She made her way back to where Lexie was. Neither said a word. Lexie was listening to her walkman and entranced by the view out of the window. Kristina picked up a magazine and started to read. The bus made a quick movement as the engine started up. The bus rolled out of the station, bringing the second wave of destruction to Hazzard County.
    The Dukes were sitting eating lunch at the kitchen table. Bo started to have another flashback about the night Luke almost killed him. He remembered Luke holding the sword to his throat. His face went pale and he started to rub the back of his neck. He stared down at his plate pushing the food around with his fork.
    "Are you okay?" Daisy asked concernedly.
    "Yeah I'm fine, I just got another headache is all." Bo said not looking up. "I'm really not all that hungry. I think I'm gonna go lay down for a while and try to get rid of this headache" he added getting up and leaving the table.
    Bo went and laid down on his bed. He closed his eyes, and tried to forget the images of the flashback, but he couldn't. After a few minutes he fell asleep and began to dream.
     He was walking across the Hazzard countryside. It was a beautiful day, there wasn't a cloud in the sky. Then he saw Luke standing a couple feet in front of him, with his back to him.
    "Hey Luke!" he called out and started to approach him.
Luke turned around slowly and faced Bo, his eyes were dark black and he had an evil smile on his face. Bo froze in fear, and his face went pale.
     "Hello traitor." Luke said, his voice cold and hateful, and he started to walk towards Bo.
Bo tried to take a step back but was frozen in fear. "Luke don't do this... not again." Bo said, his voice pleading. "You can't be evil now, it's gone... it's over." Bo said.
     "You're dead wrong about that cousin. I should've finished the job before. I'm gonna finish what I started this time." Luke said, smiling evilly.
Dark clouds quickly started to roll in, blocking the sun's light. Bright lightening flashed, thunder rolled, and the rain started to pour down.
     "No Luke... please don't." Bo said his voice shaking.
He managed to take a couple steps backwards, but then Luke lunged at him, and was now just inches away from Bo.
     "I should've killed you long ago, cousin. You've always caused me so much trouble. I hate you. You ruined everything, and now I'm gonna kill you for it." Luke said.
     "No Luke don't." Bo said his voice pleading, his body trembling.
He wanted to run away but couldn't move, he stood frozen in fear. Luke grabbed him and flung him against a tree and pinned him against it. Bo closed his eyes trying to block the image from his mind.
    "Open your eyes, cousin." Luke said, his voice harsh and demanding. "There's a few more people here who want to make you pay for what you did." Luke said.
Bo didn't want to open his eyes, but he did. He saw a blur of faces of all the people that had been sacrificed as well as all the people from Hazzard that had being killed, they were all starting to close in around him.
     "Time to die, cousin." Luke said.
     "No." Bo said his voice soft and pleading. He tried to scream but couldn't.
    Bo woke up, and sat straight up. A scream was in his throat, but he held it back. He took a deep breath, his heart was racing. He laid back down, he didn't want to close his eyes again for fear he would see the images again. He really wanted to talk to Luke or Daisy about the flashbacks he had been having, and about the dream, but knew he couldn't since they had made a pact not to talk about it. He just laid there till his heartbeat went back to normal, then got up and left the room.
    After Bo had left the table Daisy and Luke finished eating lunch. Luke went outside to work on the General Lee. They didn't race him as often anymore, but they still kept his engine running and in good shape. Luke was looking under the hood when he stated to have a flashback about when he had told Enos to kill himself. He could hear what he had said, and a wave of guilt swept over him. Daisy had come out to hang a load of laundry on the clothesline, she looked over and saw Luke just standing there, his face looked pale.
     "Are you okay?" Daisy asked.
     "Yeah I'm fine." Luke said and closed the hood of the General.
He didn't feel like working on the General anymore. He went inside to get a glass of lemonade, Bo was just coming out to the kitchen.
     "Are you feeling any better?" Luke asked.
     "Yeah the headache is basically gone." Bo said not really looking over at Luke. He could still see the images from the dream, and didn't feel that he could face Luke right now.
     "That's good." Luke said.
Bo smiled but didn't respond, he went outside and sat on the General. Luke decided to take lemonade out to Bo and Daisy so he poured two more glasses then set them on a tray and went outside. He hand a glass to Bo. "Here ya go."
     "Thanks." Bo said looking over at Luke, taking the glass, and smiled, the images from the dream had started to fade away
Luke went over and gave Daisy a glass of lemonade.
     "Thanks, honey." she said, smiling as she took the glass.
 Luke and Daisy went over by the General.  Daisy sat up on the General by Bo and Luke leaned against the General. Bo soon forgot the dream, and Luke forgot about the flashback. Everything went back to seemingly normal. Bo and Luke headed into town to pick up a few supplies.
     Kristina and Lexie had gotten off the bus in Capitol City and went to a used car dealership to get themselves a car. They got a dark blue 1970 Roadrunner. They drove off to Hazzard County.
     Bo and Luke were on Mill road when they saw a car stopped alongside the road with a flat tire, they pulled over behind it and got out.
     "Need some help?" Bo asked.
     "Yeah we sure do, we got a flat and we have no spare tire." Kristina said.
     "Well we could give you a lift into town, and to the garage to get a tire, and then bring ya back out here and help ya fix it. How does that sound?" Luke said.
     "Sounds good to me." Lexie said.
     "Sounds good to me too." Kris said.
     "By the way, I'm Luke Duke, and this is my cousin Bo." Luke said.
Lexie smiled. "I'm Lexie Zloy  and this is my sister Kristina"
     "But you can call me Kris." Kristina said and smiled.
Luke helped Lexie into the General and Bo helped Kris, then they got in themselves. Bo sped off towards town. The boys picked up the supplies they needed, then they stopped at the Hazzard Garage to get a tire for Lexie and Kris's car. Cooter was just leaving.
     "Hey Cooter, this is Lexie and Kris Zloy. Girls, this is our good buddy Cooter Davenport." Bo said.
Cooter smiled. "So what can I do for you?" he asked.
     "We need a tire for their car." Luke said.
     "No problem, just help yourself I'll send ya the bill later. Right now I gotta go out on a call. Catch ya later." Cooter said, then got into his tow truck and drove off.
Bo went and grabbed a tire and put it into the trunk. They went back out to Mill road and changed the tire for them.
     "How can we repay you for your kindness?" Kris asked.
     "It weren't nothing." Bo said.
     "Oh but it was." Lexie said.
     "Don't worry about it. Look, why don't you girls come back to the farm with us for dinner?" Luke asked.
     "Okay." both Lexie and Kris said simultaneously.
Lexie and Kris followed the boys to the Duke farm.
 Daisy was working on dinner when they came walking in.
     "This is our cousin Daisy." Luke said. "Daisy, this is Lexie and Kris Zloy." Luke said, motioning to each as he said thier name. After dinner Lexie, Kris, Bo and Luke went outside. Lexie and Kris were going to head off.
    "Tell you what. Why don't we take you boys out to lunch or something tommorrow...to repay you for your kindess." Kristina said, smiling.
     "Sounds good to me." Bo said.
     "Yeah, sounds good to me too," Luke said.
     "Okay, we'll see you tommorrow then." Lexie said.
Lexie and Kris got into their car and drove off down the road. Bo went back inside the house. Luke went into the barn to take care of a few things while there was still a little light left in the day.
     That hot summer night everything was calm and peaceful. Luke went to bed a little earlier than usual because he was worn out from all his new responsibilities. He drifted in and out of consciousness for several hours. In his deepest sleep, Luke began to dream.
     In the dream he was walking down by Hazzard Pond which was a popular fishing spot.  Everything was normal. He just sat down to cast his pole and then he heard it. A voice he hadn't heard in many months. It made him happy and sad at the same time. He looked up and in the bright glow of the afternoon sun stood Enos.
     "Hi there, Enos." Luke said like everything had always been before the evil started.
Enos said nothing. He just stood there tall and straight looking down on Luke with an expressionless face.
    "Enos, what's wrong? Come on. Sit and fish with me"
Enos remained silent and did not move. Luke began to worry. He remembered how Enos died and a great wave of guilt swept over him.
     "Enos, I'm real sorry. That wasn't me who told you to kill yourself. I was possessed. I'd never do that to you, old buddy. You gotta believe me."
    "I know, Luke." Enos said finally. "But, it was still you in a way." Enos moved closer.  Luke had a bad feeling about the situation and tried to stand to move away. He was moving in slow motion and Enos was moving at the speed of light.
    "Now, Luke, don't be afraid.  I'm just going to give you a taste of poetic justice. And why would a well trained marine like yourself be afraid of good old Enos?" Enos smiled but it was evil. A chill shot down Luke's spine.
    "Enos, what's going on?" Luke stood up, dropped his pole and backed away. The summer heat started to beat down intensely. He felt like he was being suffocated. Luke started to run from Enos but he was still in slow motion. His feet sunk heavier with each step he took. Something in his head told him not to look back but he did anyway. The air began to cool and the sun quickly disappeared.  Enos turned into a raging beast with dark shaggy fur, bloody mouth with saliva dripping down, red eyes, and had grown to at least eight feet tall.
     "YOU MUST PAY!" the demon formally known as Enos said, throwing back his head and laughing. The laughter echoed around Luke. Luke's mouth hung open. His mind was full of thoughts that did not fit with each other. He ran... or tried to. All of Luke's worst fears started taking shapes; dancing, running and pushing him around. He never felt this confused and helpless. The figures laughed, pushing him to the ground. Luke tried to yell but nothing came out. He opened his eyes to see the faces of those they had sacrificed. He shut his eyes and looked back down at the ground.
     "Enos, please that wasn't me" he pleaded with his voice cracking a bit.
     "I know, buddy" the demon said. "But it's your turn to suffer." All the figures moved in on Luke who had nowhere to run. He tried to get up but was beaten down. Then everything went black.
     Luke sat up in a cold sweat. He was wet all over, shaking and breathing hard. He looked over at Bo, who was sound asleep. He let go of his breath and put his hand over his eyes. Slowly he let it come down. His heart was going a million miles an hour. He laid back, hoping that would not happen again because he was not able to discuss it was anyone because of the pact they made.  Luke would have to deal with this nightmare alone.
     Over the course of the next week Luke and Lexie grew closer, as did Bo and Kris. They spent every day together, and went out every night. The boys were happy, although during those days they were still haunted by some memories of the evil that had consumed them only a few short months ago. They were happy with Lexie and Kris, whenever they were around them they felt as though nothing was wrong, the memories did not haunt them at these times. Everything seemed so normal, everything seemed to be perfect.
     The four of them were sitting in the car five miles from Eagle Point. "I can't drive anymore." Luke said holding his head.
     "You shouldn't be driving drunk anyway, cousin." Bo said from the back seat.
     "Now what?" asked an also very drunk Kris from the back seat trying not to start hysterically laughing.
      "I don't know, sis. What... what do you do.....here?" Lexie asked also quite drunk slowly sinking down in the front passenger seat.
     "Well... sit here, I guess." Luke said. "There isn't much right now and we're all too trashed to do anything."
     "Yeah sit right...here" Bo said pointing to the seat and smiled.
      "I have an idea. Let's check out that place on Eagle Point everyone in this town is afraid of."  Kris said eagerly.
 Bo and Luke involuntarily flinched.
      "Uh...I... don't think that's such...um,  a good idea, girls." Bo said trying not to be overwhelmed with those thoughts again.
     "Bo's right!" Luke said. "We can always go and cause trouble in Sweetwater county. Ya know start a fight or something."
     "Oh come on, boys." Lexie said, sitting up. "What's wrong with you two? I thought you'd be more than willing to go to such a scary place" she said and shivered.
     "From what I heard, you two are the bravest in Hazzard County. Now I know they were dead wrong." Kris said.
     "Right, sis!" Lexie said. "We've got ourselves two chickens here."
     "Who are you callin' a chicken?!" Bo asked.
     "We ain't chickens. You are dead wrong, girls." Luke said.
     "Let's go then" Kristina said struggling to get out the window.
     "You're on!" said Bo and Luke together.
 The walk to Eagle Point was about five minutes but it took them ten because they had trouble walking.
      "Up there," Bo said, trying to point in the right direction  "That's the place."
     "It's really eerie up here. It's really dark too." Lexie said quietly.
     "There are so many stories behind this place." Luke said.  "Ghosts of murderers. Murder victims, demons, everything."
 They made their way up the hill to the top.  In the darkest of the black night, they could just make out the giant shape of the temple.  Luke silently cursed.
      "I thought it collapsed." Bo whispered to Luke who just shook his head.
     "Come on, you two." Kristina beckoned.  "Or have you gone yellow again."
     "Watch what you say." Bo relayed with a smile.
They climbed the stairs of the blackened, empty temple.
     "Hey, how about we split up and see what we can find. We'll cover more ground that way." Kristina said in a whisper as if not to wake the dead. She winked at Lexie who understood.
     "Now that's an idea." Luke said holding Lexie.
     "Sounds good to me." Bo said with his arm around Kristina.
 The temple was run down like it had been there forever. Luke and Lexie found a secret passage that took them deep into the temple, just about under the alter.
     "Luke? Where are you? I can't see anything." Lexie asked in a drunken worry.
 Luke stumbled over to her. "I'm here. We'd better stay close so we don't fall down or something."
     "Sure, Luke." and she hit him sort of hard.
Luke laughed and it echoed through the walls and corridor.  Even with their candles it was impossible to see.
     "Look, I found a door." Luke said.
     "Check it out then."
     "Alright. I will." Luke smiled and moved in.
 When he got to the back, Lexie slammed the door shut behind him and locked it. There was a little peep hole to see him.
     "Hey!" Luke laughed drunkenly. "I'm a prisoner!" He felt around the room to find it was very small.
 Lexie said nothing.
     "Lex?" a pause. "Hey, this isn't funny anymore. Come on. What's  the idea here?" Luke asked. He was starting to worry now and the alcohol was wearing off. Lexie hadn't left him. She was standing outside the door watching. Then she touched the amulet around her neck and it glowed. She glared evilly at him as the alcohol vanished from her system.
     Meanwhile, Bo and Kristina walked through the dark corridors of the temple.
     "I just know I'm gonna fall over something. Its so dark in here." Kristina said.
Immediately after she said that she stumbled over something and fell against Bo.
     "Don't worry about it, I won't let ya fall." Bo said and smiled as he slipped an arm around her waist.
In the dim light from the candles Bo spotted a door. "Hey a door"
     "Cool. Wonder what's behind it." Kristina said
     "Let's find out." Bo said and opened the door.
There was one candle lighting the room. It glowed brightly, shining on a cobweb that was by the candle, along with a medium sized spider.
     "I hate spiders." Kristina said taking a step away from the room. "I ain't going in there. Not with that spider in there."
     "Don't worry. I'll protect you from the spider." Bo said with a laugh.
     "No, I ain't gonna go in there." Kristina said. "Not unless you go in first and get rid of that spider."
     "Okay fine. I'll do that." Bo said going into the room. He was just about over to the candle when the door slammed shut, and the candle grew dim.
     "Kris..."Bo called out "What's going on here?" he asked. He tried to find his way back to the door but couldn't see anything in the dim light.
     "Kris, are you there?" Bo asked with a hint of worry in his voice. "Hey this ain't funny, what's going on here?" he asked.
 The alcohol was starting to wear off his system and he began to get very worried. He tried to feel along the walls to try to find the door, but tripped over a small bench that was against the far wall. He got up and found the door, but it was locked, and he made his way back to the bench and sat down, he was very worried now. Kristina was still there, she looked into the room through a small window in the door, watching Bo. She reached up and touched her amulet, and smiled an evil smile. All the alcohol had left her system instantaneously when she touched the amulet.
 Silence engulfed the temple. "Lex?" Luke asked softly. "This ain't funny no more."
     "What do you expect?" Lexie asked with no emotion in her voice and enunciating the words.
      "What's going on, Lex? I don't understand." Luke said still trying to adjust his eyes to the darkness.
      "Remember the evil, Luke?" Lexie asked still just outside the door.
      "The evil?" Luke started to worry now. He leaned against the stone wall at the back. He noticed that his tiny candle was letting off more light than usual.
     "I know you remember." Lexie started. "You still dream about Enos' death."
     "How did you know?" Luke asked in a whisper.
     "It doesn't matter how I know. What you seem to have forgotten is how you almost beat Bo to death."
      "I don't want to remember, Lex. Don't ..." Luke started.
      "Oh but you must. You have to. The past isn't easily forgotten. You tried to kill Bo. You tried to kill your blood brother. You tried to kill your best friend in all the world. You tried to kill kin."
      "Stop!" Luke pleaded holding his head. The vivid, colourful images returned to his mind.  He also heard laughter. At first he did not know where it came from but then he realized it was Lexie.
     "Lexie, who the hell are you? Why are you doing this ?" Luke asked. Before Luke's eyes, Lexie appeared on the inside of the cell. She let go of her amulet which glowed brilliantly now and moved close to Luke. Luke saw the amulet and a chill went down his back. "You...you've got...the amulet!" He never felt more helpless than he did right now. "Stay away from me!"
      "Take it easy, Luke." Lexie said in a soft, soothing voice. "I'd never want to hurt you."  She moved closer putting her arm around him and giving him a slight hug. "It's not as bad as it seems." She kissed him on the cheek.
Luke started to calm a bit. He was not sweating as much and his heart slowed down.
After a few minutes he felt better. Lexie had put him in a calm state were he felt as if
nothing was wrong. Then her eyes turned black as coal. She sat back from him. Luke
was staring ahead in front of him. She took her right hand and placed it on his forehead.
    "Remember." Lexie's voice grew harsher.
     "No." whispered Luke but there was no way he could do anything.
     While this was happening, Bo was sitting on the bench in a room not far from where Luke was. He sat with his head leaning back against the wall and his eyes starting to adjust to the dim light of the candle. He was quite scared. He wondered where everyone was, and if they were okay. He hated being alone in the small, dark room. He tried to think of anything except being in the room, or about the flashbacks he'd been having or the dream. He was starting to worry that he might never get out of the room.
  Kristina looked into the room and smiled.
     "You remember this place don't you? And about the evil?" she asked, her voice dark and evil sounding. Her voice sounded so different that Bo hardly recognised it.
     "What..." Bo started to say.
     "Of course you remember the evil, you could never forget it." Kristina said.
     "Leave me alone. I don't want to remember it." Bo said.
     "But you can't forget the evil, and how evil you were." Kristina said.
     "I don't want to remember" Bo said. "Why are you trying to make me remember all this Kris?" Bo asked "Why are you doing this to me?"
     "Because you must remember. You killed so many innocent people, people you knew from Hazzard even. And let's not forget that your cousin tried to kill you." Kristina said. "He beat you really bad didn't he?" she asked and smiled evilly. Bo flinched.
     "No...it was all an accident, it wasn't...he'd never..." Bo said his voice trailing off.
     "It was no accident he really wanted to kill you. He hated you and still hates you so much." Kristina said.
     "No that's not true." Bo said.
     "Oh, but it is true. He wanted to kill you, he hated you so much. Perhaps you don't quite remember his rage that night. You need to be reminded of how much he wanted to kill you." Kristina said holding her amulet, which glowed brightly.
     "What..." Bo started to say but was cut short.
 A gold bolt of energy shot out an struck Bo. He could see everything that happened that night Luke tried to kill him. He could see all of Luke's fury. He saw Luke beating him, flinging him across the room, and holding the sword to his throat. He buried his head in his hands to try to stop the images, but to no avail, he could still vividly see the images.
     "No stop... I don't want to see anymore, please stop." Bo said his voice pleading. He could feel tears burning in his eyes but he held them back.
 Kristina appeared in the cell right in front of Bo and she knelt down in front of him. The flame on the candle grew brighter.
     "Kris..." he said looking up. "Why are you doing this to me I don't want to remember..." he said his voice trailing off as he noticed the amulet around her neck. "You got the amulet...get away from me..." Bo said frightenedly. "Who are you? Why are you doing this to me?." he asked his voice slightly trembling.
      "Bo just settle down, its okay. I won't hurt you, I would never hurt you. " she said as she brushed her hand against Bo's cheek. Her touch had a calming effect on Bo.
     "But...but I don't want to remember it, any of it, I..." Bo started to say.
     "Shhhh." Kristina said softly, then kissed him. "Just settle down. It's not that bad. It's  not as bad as you think it is. You must remember the evil, you cannot forget it." she said placing a hand on his cheek, then let it slowly slide down.
     "I don't want to remember." Bo said.
     "But you must remember. Remember the sacrifices, all the people you killed. People you knew." Kristina said
 Kristina gently laid her hand against Bo's forehead. Images of the sacrifices began to come to him.
     "No, please." Bo begged, his voice trembling. He tried to block the images from his mind, but it was futile. He could vividly see the sacrifices. He could see the victims' fear and pain as they were being sacrificed. "No I didn't mean to...I didn't want to I...I don't want to remember all of this." Bo said, a single tear rolled down his cheek. "I never meant to hurt anyone."
 Kristina stood up. "Never the less, so many innocent people died because of you. Your Uncle Jesse would be so disappointed in you."
 Bo's face went pale, he dropped his head and looked down at the ground. Kristina smiled evilly.
     "But then you've always been such a disappointment to him. He never loved you. He only took you in out of pity, because nobody else wanted you. He really grew to regret that. You ruined his life. He was always having to get you out of trouble."
     "No, that's a lie...it's a lie." Bo said looking up.
     "It is all true. He hated you. Just like your cousin Luke hates you. You can never do anything right." Kristina said.
     "That's not true...shut up. I don't want to hear anymore." Bo said.
Kristina smiled and shook her head, then kissed him.
     "Just settle down Bo." she said softly, and brushed her hand against his cheek.
 Bo began to calm down again. There was something soothing and calming about her touch that actually made Bo believe that everything was really alright, but he still didn't believe what was being said.
     "No, it's not true...it's just not true."
     "Maybe if you don't want to believe me, perhaps he should tell you himself." she said then took a hold of the amulet which started to glow brightly again. She placed a hand over his eyes. Bo closed his eyes. There was a bright flash then Kristina vanished from the room, and was once again standing just outside the door looking through the small window.
     Bo opened his eyes and saw Jesse standing about halfway across the room in front of him. Bo was happy to see him, he tried to say something but he couldn't find the words. His happiness quickly turned to sadness when he saw the look of anger, disappointment, and hate in Jesse's eyes.
     "You are such a disgrace to the Duke name. Because of you, so many innocent people died." Jesse said his voice filled with anger.
     "I didn't mean to, Uncle Jesse." Bo said.
     "I regret the day I took you in. The only reason I did was out of pity, nobody else wanted you." Jesse said.
Bo went to reply but couldn't find the words, he just sat there staring at Jesse.
     "You are such a disappointment, you can't do anything right. You always got yourself into so much trouble. You ruined everyone's lives, especially mine." Jesse said.
     "No I..." Bo said, his voice soft and filled with sadness.
     "It's your fault I died. You let me die." Jesse said.
     "No, that's not true... I would never do that." Bo said "I don't want to hear anymore, please stop... I don't want to hear it." he said, a couple tears rolled down his cheeks.
     "It is the truth, you must hear the truth. I never loved you and it's all your fault that I died." Jesse said his voice filled with anger and hate.
     "No...please..." Bo said, his voice trembling with fear and sadness.
There was another flash of bright golden light, and Jesse's image vanished from the room.
 Kristina stood watching, smiling evilly.
      "What's the matter? Can't handle the truth?" she asked.
 Bo didn't respond, he buried his head in his hands staring down at the ground.
     "What else would you like see or have you got the point? Nobody cares about you. Your uncle hated you and your cousin tried to kill you. You are such a horrible person, because of you so many innocent people died." Kristina said, her voice cold and uncaring.
     "No more..I don't want to hear anymore and I don't want to see anything else. Just leave me alone." Bo said, looking up. His eyes were filled with sadness, and tears. "Just stop, please stop."
     "You must learn to accept the truth, the evil is still inside you." Kristina said. "Can't you feel it?" she asked smiling evilly.
     "That's not true." Bo said looking up.
 The flame grew brighter, and the walls started to glimmer. A loud buzzing sound filled the small room. The amulet started glow brightly, and Kristina started to close her hand around it. The walls around Bo started to move and close in towards him. Bo sat trembling in fear as the walls grew closer.
     "No...don't." he said his voice barely above a whisper. A feeling of claustrophia came over Bo as the walls closed in around him. "No." his voice trembling and barely audible.
Kristina stood watching, laughing evilly. The walls were just inches away from Bo when the flame grew dim, and then the walls retreated back to where they started.
     "How did you like that?" Kristina asked.
Bo didn't respond he just sat there trembling, staring straight in front of him. His face was pale.
     "Oh, did poor Bo feel claustrobic? You poor thing." Kristina said her voice filled with sarcasm, then she laughed evilly.
 Bo leaned his head back against the wall, his body  trembling. He had gone from scared to terrified. The images and what had been said kept replaying in his mind.
     Lexie, up until now, had been kind in a sense to Luke. He only saw images of the past and nothing else. She looked into his mind and it seemed that his military training was helping him clear his mind of thoughts. Luke looked up at Lexie who stood in the middle of the small room.
     "Who sent you?" he said in a low, commanding voice.
      "That's none of your concern, mortal." Lexie added with the same low, commanding voice. "And, sugar, don't try your mind games. I already know what you've thought and are going to think next." She said very sweetly.
  Luke put his head down and tried to fight off the headache he was getting. All the mental strain was taking its toll on him. He began to think of Daisy and whether she was worrying about them not coming home. He worried if they ever would get home. Then he remembered Bo was somewhere else in this cursed temple with that other girl.
      "Where's Bo?" he asked.
      "Why do you care about him?" Lexie asked.
      "He's my cousin." Luke said.
      "He's fine, but he doesn't have your training to get rid of the same thoughts."
 Luke looked back down at the floor.  "So there are two of ya.  What are you going to do?"
     "What do you think, Luke?" Lexie said.  "Evil never dies."
 Luke could not handle this and lunged at Lexie. She vanished and appeared behind him.   "That's no way to treat a lady." Lexie said with an evil smile."
 Luke turned around and before he could respond, Lexie touched her amulet and a bolt of lightening struck Luke. Luke yelled and fell backward. Another image appeared before his eyes.  It was Bo, but he looked like he was in great pain.
     "Here's your cousin, Luke. He's fine, like I said. Why do you care how he is? You've forgotten again that you wanted to kill him." Lexie said as she moved around the cell.
Luke just sat there unresponsive staring at the image feeling even more helpless.
      "Luke, can you even feel pain? Nobody ever knows what you feel."
Luke looked up to her and said: "I've been through more than any of them. I learned to hide them during the war."
     "I don't think you're capable of emotion. I don't even think you have a heart, a heart that cares."  Lexie said.
     "Shut up, Lex.  What do you know about anything?" Luke said. His head was throbbing.
     "I know a great many things, Luke. Don't try anything. It's best you don't."  With that, Lexie disappeared to the other side of the door. Luke held his head in his hands and wondered if it was a dream or if he really was in hell. Slowly the candle grew dimmer and dimmer until darkness consumed the cell.
     "Luke." Lexie said in a soft, soothing voice. "Luke, you are very tired. It's late, honey, why don't you get some sleep? Everything will be fine in the morning. Everything is always fine in the morning. Sleep. It's all a bad dream. Sleep."
  Luke felt his eyes get heavier and his body relax. His mind was free of any thoughts and he drifted off to sleep. Lexie stood outside the door, silently laughing.
     A few hours had past, Bo laid down on the bench staring blankly at the door. The flame from the candle grew brighter. Kris appeared and knelt down beside Bo.
     "Bo." Kris said softly, touching his cheek.
 Bo didn't respond he continued to stare blankly in front of him.
     "Bo, look at me." Kris said softly.
 Bo moved his head and looked up at Kris, but still he said nothing.
     "That's better. It is now time to leave this room. It is time for you to accept the evil back." Kris said.
 Bo trembled at the thought of that. Even though a part of him did not, a deep voice inside him was telling him that is what he wanted.
     "It will be okay Bo. You will not feel anymore pain when you come back. You belong with us, it is your destiny." Kris said her voice soft and kind sounding.
 Bo still said nothing and made no movement to get up. Kris lightly kissed him on the cheek.
     "Come on Bo, it is time."
 Bo slowly sat up and looked at Kris. The flame grew even brighter. He no longer had the strength or will power left to fight the evil off.
  Kris smiled. "Thats better. Take my hand, we are going to leave this room."
 Bo smiled back at her and reached out and took her hand. A bright flash of golden light flooded the room, and they both vanished.
 Bo and Kris appeared in the temple's main room, by the alter. Bo was now dressed all in black. Lexie and Kris stood a few inches in front of Bo. Lexie held the book open in her hands and began to chant a spell from it. The room was flooded in a golden light, a loud rumbling vibrated the temple's walls, its sound slowly growing louder. Bo closed his eyes, he could hear faint chanting surround him. Kris took a sword and placed it on Bo's left shoulder. A bolt of energy flowed though it, a gold light consumed Bo's body. Lexie then closed the book, the rumbling and chanting stopped, and the room was again only lit by the candles. When Bo opened his eyes they were black as coal, and he smiled evilly. Seconds later his eyes returned to their normal colour.
   The next morning came and everything was fine to Luke.  The only problem at first was he could not remember how he got home from wherever he had been last night. He dressed and left the room. He didn't even look at Bo's bed.  He assumed that since it was late already Bo was up.
    "Morning." Daisy said as he walked into the kitchen. "I kept breakfast warm for you."
    "Thanks, Daisy." Luke said sitting down.
     "Is Bo up yet?" Daisy asked.
     "I think so. He wasn't there when I woke up." Luke said.
     "I haven't seen him at all yet today. I was up really early too." Daisy said pouring a glass of milk for herself.
Luke sat there chewing. He was starting to worry. He faintly remembered what happened but being drunk did not help.
    "Luke, you're awful quiet." Daisy said as she sat down.
    "I'm just thinkin'." Luke said. He did recall a dream about being in the temple but that was all. Suddenly he stood up and threw down his napkin.
    "Luke?" Daisy asked.
 Luke didn't respond. As he walked into the living room he saw it, the image of Bo in the cell in great pain from Kris torturing him. He held his head and started to pace the room.
    "Luke, what's going on?" Daisy asked, a little more worried now. She got up and went over to him.
    "I'm fine, Daisy" Luke said in an emotionless tone.
 Daisy flinched. He had never talked to anyone like that. There were several occasions but that was when….. Daisy stopped and she pushed the thought out of her mind. Luke shut his eyes and he could see the temple. It was sitting on top of Eagle Point and slowly growing bigger. Clouds rushed in to cover the sun. The candles all re-lit themselves. Chanting filled the silence. Then he heard it - laughter. It was Lexie... or was it? The laughter grew louder and louder. It reached to the depth of his soul. It echoed all around him. Then it was muffled and then it sounded like thousands of people joined in. Luke started to pound his head.
    "Shut up!"
 Daisy stood there frozen. She did not know what to think anymore.
 Luke opened his eyes he was still in the farm house. He was safe but he felt dizzy and confused.
     "I've gotta find Bo." he said at last. He headed toward their room.
    "He's probably out in the barn or ran into town." Daisy said, following him.
    "Bo?" Luke called into the room - nothing. He ran to the closet and searched it. He searched under the bed and looked out the window at the space below it. "Daisy, help me!" Luke said in an angry voice.
 Daisy remained mute. Tears started to build up in her eyes. Luke was scaring her. Luke quickly left the room and searched her room.
     "Why would he be in my room?" Daisy asked.
 Luke looked suspiciously at her. He walked over to her slowly.
     "There is something you're not telling me , Daisy. What is it?" Luke asked in a low voice.  Daisy just stood there. A lump grew in her throat and tears stayed in her eyes.
     "What?" she managed.
    "You know where they've got Bo don't you? You're in on the whole thing." Luke said anger rose in his voice.
    "Luke, what are you talking about. I don't understand."
 Luke grabbed her shoulders with both his hands and shook her.
   "Where is he?" his voice was now loud and demanding.
Daisy started talking steps back into the living room. "I don't know… Luke!…Stop" Daisy said through her tears.  Luke pushed her away. He ran around outside the house and searched the barn. Daisy stood leaning against the back of the couch. She was shaking, crying and at a loss for words. Luke had never treated her like that. There was something he was not telling her but she could not figure out what it could be. Her head was throbbing from all the stress. The door to the kitchen swung open and Luke practically ran into the room. Daisy moved over to the fireplace where she could keep a safe distance from her insane cousin.
    "Daisy, where is he? Where did they tell you to hide him?" Luke asked calmly.
"Who is they, Luke? I haven't seen him since last night when you two went to the Boar's Nest. I'm so confused. Stop please, Luke" Daisy said trembling.
 Luke started to believe her but he was not satisfied. The laughter started again. This time he heard a voice. It was soft and soothing.
   "Open the door to Jesse's room." it said. Luke stared at the door.  Daisy stared at him.  "Trust me. You must open it." the voice said.
 Slowly Luke walked over to the door. Then he remembered they had locked it.
     "Daisy." Luke said in a low tired voice. "Where's the key?"  Daisy did not respond for a second.
     "We were never going to open his room." she protested.
     "Just give me the key." Luke said.
Daisy obeyed for fear Luke would attack her again. Luke took the key and slowly turned the knob. Daisy held her breath. Luke stood with the door to Jesse's room wide open as if waiting for something to jump out and attack him. Then he entered.
It was dark and arranged the same way it had been that day,  years ago. Luke slowly walked over to the closet and opened it. There was a brilliant flash of light and there he was. Bo stood before him. He looked like he had been to hell and back; his hair was messed up, his clothes torn, and he was bleeding from somewhere. Luke moved back a step with his mouth wide open.
    "Bo?" he said quietly. Bo said nothing but glared right through him. Then he started to laugh. It echoed all around Luke. Bo's eyes turned red, a flash of light crashed again and before him stood Jesse and the beast from his dream. Luke began to shake. He could not remember the exercise he learned to control his fear.
    "Luke, what's wrong." Jesse asked in a soothing voice.
Luke could not speak. He sat on the bed, never blinking.
    "Well, I see you done a bad job at running this family. You lost your cousin Bo. What have you done with Daisy that she looks so bad. I should never have taken you in. I knew that mind of yours would betray me." Jesse said.
    "But…. I didn't…" Luke started. Tears started to well up in his eyes.
    "Silence!! You never did listen to me. I hate you. The world hates you. Nobody ever liked you. We had to force them to. You're a disgrace. The evil returned and it's all your fault.  Everything that has happened to this family is a your fault. You're a curse. I should have left you in the woods to die a long time ago. You're worth nothing."  Jesse said and motioned to the beast.
    "Uncle Jesse?  Why do you say this? It can't be true.  No I can't believe it." Luke said as tears started to run down his cheeks.
    "Shut up, you." Jesse said evilly. "You have no right to speak to me. Finish him Enos.  Get him back for what he did to you."
 With that Jesse vanished and the beast moved toward Luke. He couldn't scream or move. He was frozen in fear. The beast grabbed him around the throat and squeezed. Luke felt lighter and darkness closed in, then it stopped. He opened his eyes and nothing was there. The doors were still open. He let out his breath and choked on his tears. A faint laugh could be heard in the closet.  Lexie appeared dressed all in black with the hood of her cloak resting on her head. Luke just stared. Lexie smiled evilly and pointed at him. The image of Bo in pain came back. Then she disappeared. Luke felt ill.
He left the room holding his head. He looked up and saw Daisy. A chill went down her spine. Something must have happened in the room cause Luke looked awfully pale. She moved over to him. He hugged her for a couple minutes.
    "Stay here." he said in almost a whisper.  "I'm going to look for Bo.  Just stay here in case he comes back."
Daisy started to cry. "What's going on, Luke?"
    "Nevermind that. Just do what I say. Everything will be okay, I promise." He kissed her on the cheek and left the house. He climbed into the General and sped off. Daisy looked at the door to Jesse's room. She sat on the couch and cried.
Luke's head was spinning as he drove from the farm. The only thought that remained clear was to find Bo. He was still shaking and his heart raced. The image he had seen in Jesse's room still bothered him. He kept hearing some of Jesse's words in the back of his mind. Luke was not in any condition to be driving. As he headed toward town he heard a voice, it was Lexie.
    "Luke." she said laughing. "You'll never find Bo in town. Go to the old saw mill." Luke quickly changed directions. The air started getting hotter and hotter. He was short of breath and delusional. He kept seeing faces of people long gone along the way. He ignored them because he was determined to find Bo. Lexie started to laugh.
     "You'll never find him wherever you go, jackass. He hates you. You abandoned him and he is suffering because of you."
 Luke drove to the saw mill and ran inside. It was empty. He ran and got in his car and started to drive.  An hour went by and he kept driving. He couldn't remember anymore where he was going and why. He knew he was looking for Bo but the other thoughts made no sense.
    Pretty soon he found himself back at Hazzard Pond. It seemed eerie, like the dream he had about Enos. The summer heat had cooled off and a light breeze flowed through. He went to take out his fishing stuff. Fishing had always relaxed him. He sat down. Everything was all a scary deja vu. He looked up quickly expecting Enos... nothing. He looked out across the pond, the midday sun shimmered brightly on the water. Luke tried to think of where to look next but his mind seemed blank, he was unable to think of where to go. The sun's reflection on the pond seemed to intensify the light, creating an almost blinding white glare. Luke covered his eyes. When he slowly lowered his hand, the light was gone and images came to him. Luke could see the temple; he involuntarily shivered at its sight and he felt a cold chill down his spine. He was filled with fear and worry. The scene changed, he could see a small dark room that was lit only by a dim candle. The candle grew brighter and he could see Bo sitting on a bench leaning against the wall. Then Bo moved, he was now looking right at Luke. Luke could see that Bo's face was pale, his cheeks were streaked with tears, and his eyes were filled with fear and pain. Bo then spoke, his voice was soft and trembling
    "Luke please come...you gotta come back...please don't leave me here." then he clenched is eyes shut and flinched in pain. He reopened his eyes. "Please help me cousin...please." his voice pleading. His complexion went paler, he was so ghastly pale. "Luke please help me...it hurts so much...please cousin I ...I don't want to die...please help me." he said then closed his eyes again, his breathing seemed to have slowed, his whole body trembled slightly.
     The images left in a flash and Luke was once again looking out over Hazzard Pond. He was shaking slightly. He was terrified by what he had seen, he was filled with worry about Bo. He went and got into the General. His hands were shaking so much that he cold barely turn the key. He clenched his hands around the steering wheel and took a deep breath. Luke knew that he had to be brave about going to that temple and rescuing Bo. He silently vowed.
 "Don't worry, cousin, I swear I'll save you. I won't let anything happen to you, I promise I won't let you down." Luke could feel tears coming to his eyes and bit them back. He loosened his grip on the steering wheel then sped off towards the temple.
        Daisy calmed herself down. She didn't know what to do. Bo was missing. Luke was half mad. Uncle Jesse had been gone for quite some time. She decided to call Cooter because he was almost like family anyway.
    "Hazzard Garage." Cooter said.
    "Hey, Cooter."
    "Hey, Daisy. What's going on?" Cooter said cheerfully. Daisy sighed. "Things are real bad Cooter", she paused, "You think you could stop by...Luke...Bo...Cooter?" Daisy was at a loss for words.
    "I'll be right there, gal." he hung up the phone.
Cooter arrived ten minutes later and came in the kitchen door. Daisy was sitting at the table drinking coffee.
    "What's wrong?" he asked. Daisy looked up.  She was pale and her eyes were red from crying.  "Everything, Cooter"
    "With the boys?"
    "Yeah" Daisy said. She looked out into the living room. She saw an image of Luke in his madness then she continued. "Bo never came home last night. Luke freaked out. I've never seen him do anything like that. He...he always has remained so calm even when..."she stopped herself, she was going to mention the evil and that was forbidden.                                                    Cooter understood and just nodded.
    "What else?" Cooter asked.
    "He got frantic.  He accused me of hiding Bo and being involved with someone."
    "Who? That doesn't sound like Luke" Cooter said.
     "He said ‘Where did they tell you to hide him?' He was so angry too...I'm just so scared"  Daisy said and looked back down at her coffee.
Cooter came over to her and gave her a hug.
     "What else happened? He didn't hurt you did he?"
     "No he just shook me and pushed me away. After he searched the barn he asked me again, then he wanted in Jesse's room...he was in there about ten minutes. When he came out he was all pale. He told me he was sorry and then left looking for Bo"
     "Daisy, I think this is serious.  Who did they go out with last night?"
     "Lexie and Kris. Like always." Daisy said.
     "Those two have been acting kinda strange. Well not strange but I sense something bad about them" Cooter said.
 A chill went down her back. "I did notice that they both had chains around their necks but I didn't see what was on them"
     "I think we better check it out. It feels like....you know" Cooter said.
     "I hope you're wrong Cooter. Before we check anything I need a nap. My
head hurts"
     "Alrightee then, I'll meet you at the Boars Nest in two hours, gal"
     "Bye now" Daisy said and went to lay down.
  Luke arrived at the temple a few minutes later. He climbed out of the General, and stood staring at the temple for a couple moments. Dark clouds started to roll in blocking the sunlight and there was a strong gust of wind that sent a chill through Luke. He took a step back away from the temple, his body slightly shivering. Luke didn't want to go into the temple and started to back further away, then the images of Bo in pain and calling out for his help came to him. Luke took a deep breath and then climbed the steps of the temple and went inside. The candles in the corridors burned dimly, casting strange shadows all around Luke. He stopped and closed his eyes and took a deep breath, then opened his eyes and continued down the corridor. A couple of minutes later that seemed like an eternity to Luke, he came to the main room of the temple, where all the sacrifices had taken place. The room was brightly lit. It took a moment for Luke's eyes to adjust to the light, then he stepped further into the room. He looked over at the alter and saw Bo was laying on top of it. Luke stopped, his heart almost seemed to skip a beat.
     "Bo..." he said, his voice barely above a whisper and filled with worry, then he started to walk towards Bo.
 Bo sat up, he was dressed all in black. He stared at Luke, his eyes were cold, dark, and uncaring.
     "What took you so long?" his voice was cold and emotionless.
 Luke froze and just stared at Bo, he had no idea what to say. Bo smiled evilly and slid off the alter and took a couple of steps towards Luke. Kris and Lexie appeared behind Bo.
     "Bo...why?" Luke asked in dread.
     "The evil was never dead, cousin, it was just dormant for a while. It's not that bad, it takes away all the pain, all the sadness." Bo said.
     "That's not true, it consumes you." Luke said taking a step towards Bo.
     "Silence. It is not that bad, cousin. Let it back into you. Join us." Bo said his voice cold and demanding.
     "No, I will not join you." Luke said.
 A sword appeared in Bo's hand. It was one of the swords used for the sacrifices. Luke flinched when he saw it.
     "I said join us." Bo said, his voice harsh and demanding.
 Bo pointed the sword at Luke and a bolt of energy shot out and struck Luke. Luke stumbled and fell to the ground. He laid on the ground in shock, not moving for a moment then he started to sit up.
     "Bo, don't ..." Luke said looking up at Bo.
     "I don't have to listen to you. You will join us or you will suffer." Bo said lowering the sword towards Luke.
     "Bo, you can't do this." Luke said.
     "Why can't I?" Bo asked. "You tried to kill me before. Don't tell me you wouldn't do this to me. This makes us even, cousin." Bo said nastily, then shot another bolt of energy at Luke.
 Luke fell back to the ground, his body slightly trembling in pain. Images started to fill his mind, the images that Lexie had shown him, and the vision he had in Jesse's room. Bo shot another bolt of energy at Luke, jolting Luke's body. Luke flinched in pain. He opened his eyes, which were filled with torment, and looked up at Bo. Bo stared down at him, his eyes were dark and emotionless. He smiled evilly at seeing his cousin's pain. Bo shot Luke with another bolt of energy. Luke could feel the evil starting to invade his mind and take over his thoughts, its cold, icy grip closing around his heart.
 Bo bent down a few inches from  Luke. He laid the sword down on the ground.  "Luke, cousin, join us." Bo said his voice soft.
     "But..." Luke started to say. Bo reached his right hand out to Luke.
     "Join us cousin, it will end your suffering. It will take away all your pain." Bo said his voice soft, soothing and almost caring sounding. Luke looked at him.
     "But...but." he said unable to find the words to finish his sentence.
     "Trust me cousin. Join us... join me." Bo said. "After all we've always been a team, haven't we?" he asked smiling
 Luke took a hold of Bo's hand, Bo touch was icy cold and Luke shivered. Bo stood up and pulled Luke to his feet, he let go of Luke's hand. Bo bent down and picked up the sword, and they walked over to the alter where Lexie and Kristina were still standing. Bo handed the sword to Kris, Lexie was already holding the other sword.
Luke stood just in front of the alter Kris and Lexie stood inches in front of him, and Bo stood just behind him. Kris held the book open this time and began to chant the same spell that Lexie had earlier. The golden light filled the room again, Luke closed his eyes. The rumbling and chanting started again. Lexie placed the sword on Luke's left shoulder and bolt of energy flowed from it, a golden light consumed Luke's body. Kris closed the book. Everything went back to normal in the room. Luke was now wearing all black. Luke opened his eyes they were dark black, he smiled evilly, then his eyes slowly returned to their normal colour.
    The four of them went outside, and walked over to the General. They all got inside and Bo drove away from the temple. Kris sat in the front next to him, and Luke and Lexie sat in back. The boys were now wearing the amulets, which laid against their skin under their shirts. They sped down the back dirt roads of the county. They were out on highway three and stopped. Bo parked the General in the bushes. About five minutes later an out of state car went past. Bo reached up and took a hold of his amulet as he watched the car. The car's engine then begun to sputter. It rounded the corner from where the General was then its engine completely died. Bo started the General up and went in the direction the car went. He pulled to a stop behind the car. All four of them got out of the General. Bo and Luke approached the car. The driver of the car was a woman maybe in her early thirties.
     "Got car problems?" Bo asked.
     "Yeah, my car just up and died." she said.
     "Well we could take a look at it for ya. We do know a little something about cars." Bo said.
     "Okay thanks." she said.
 Bo and Luke walked over and looked under the hood.
     "Well, your problem is you got a cracked distributor cap. Our CB is out but we could give ya a ride to a phone to call for a tow truck, if you want." Bo said.
     "Yeah, thanks." she said.
 Lexie and Kris got back into the car and sat in the back. Bo was walking a couple paces behind Luke and the stranger, as they walked back to the General. Bo raised his hand and closed it around the amulet. The woman stopped walking and passed out. They carried over to the General and put her in, then got in themselves. Bo sped back towards the temple.
 Moments later they arrived at the temple. Bo carried the woman's body into the temple, and laid her down on the alter. There was a flash of light then Bo, Luke, Kris, and Lexie were all dressed in black clothes. Bo and Luke held the swords in their hands. Their eyes were as black as coal. The woman began to awaken, she tried to move but an invisible force held her down. She tried to scream but couldn't make a sound. Outside, the temperature dropped as a cool breeze began to blow. Dark clouds quickly rolled in blocking the sun's light. Bright strokes of lightening flashed, and loud cracks of thunder rolled across the sky. From within the temple a low rumbling started, it sounded like a powerful engine starting up. There was the sound of distant chanting that echoed through the corridors of the temple, coming from somewhere unseen. The boys raised the swords. Outside a bright flash of lightening lit the sky and reflected off the metal blade of the swords. They then lowered the swords into the woman's body. A golden light flooded the room. Blue bolts of energy flowed up the swords from the body.  Bo and Luke's bodies were consumed by the blue light, the light that before had retained their youth, and was doing so again. The woman's body burst into a golden flame that reached high towards the ceiling. The flame quickly extinguished itself. There was nothing left of the woman's body, not even ashes. The boys turned around to face Lexie and Kris. Luke placed his sword on Lexie's shoulder, and Bo placed his sword on Kris's shoulder. The swords started to glow blue, and the same energy that had     consumed both Bo and Luke, now consumed Lexie and Kris, retaining their youth as well. Silence then filled the temple once more, the storm left as quick as it had come. The four of them turned and walked away from the alter, their eyes returned to their normal colour.
     Meanwhile, Daisy had gone to the Boar's Nest to meet Cooter. She had just parked her jeep in front of the Boar's Nest when she noticed the dark clouds on the horizon that were fast rolling in on Hazzard. The clouds were large thunderheads that boiled and reached high in the sky. They were such a deep black that, even though they were just clouds, Daisy thought they looked sinister and a cold chill went down her spine. She turned away from the clouds. She felt the temperature start to drop rapidly as a cool breeze started, and the rain started to pour down. She went inside the Boar's Nest. The Boar's Nest was quite empty. There was only a small handful of people there. There were three people sitting at the bar, the bartender and Cooter, who was sitting at one of the far tables. Daisy walked over and joined Cooter at the table.
     "How ya feeling?" Cooter asked concernedly
 Daisy sat down quietly at the table. "Not much better."
     "Have you heard anything?" Cooter asked.
     "No. Oh Cooter, I am just so worried about Bo and Luke, if anything were to happen to either of them..." Daisy started to say, tears starting to form high in her eyes.
She didn't have to finish her sentence Cooter knew what she was going to say, he knew that if something happened to either Bo or Luke that it would be very hard on Daisy.
    Outside the storm was growing worse, there was a loud crack of thunder that shook the whole Boar's Nest. Daisy flinched, the thunder had such an eerie sound like the thunder when...she started to think to herself but pushed that thought from her mind.
     "This storm just came outta nowhere." Cooter said.
 Daisy nodded in agreement.
     "I hope the boys are okay." she said barely above a whisper, not even loud enough for Cooter to hear her.
     "Do you want to talk about what happened?" Cooter asked.
 Daisy took a deep breath then told Cooter what had happened.
     "Really, that don't sound like Luke at all." Cooter said.
     "I know, that is why I am so worried. Could you please help me find Bo and Luke?" Daisy asked.
     "Of course I'll help ya find them. We'd better wait though till this storm is over, wouldn't do much good to go out in it." Cooter said.  Daisy gave a small smile.
     "Thanks Cooter. I really appreciate it."
 Cooter smiled back. "No problem."
     They both just sat there quietly after that and listened to the storm raging outside. The storm was over. Daisy and Cooter got up from the table and started to walk toward the door when Luke, Bo, Kris, and Lexie walked in. Daisy and Cooter stood surprised for a moment then Daisy rushed over and hugged Bo.
     "Bo, you're okay." Daisy said happily.
     "Yeah I'm fine. Why wouldn't I be?" Bo asked.
     "Well because earlier Luke..."Daisy started to say.
     "Oh that, well Luke was just out of his mind, what else is new with that?" Bo said. Luke gave Bo a look of "cute" and Bo just laughed.
     "Luke was just hung over from being so drunk last night I guess he forgot that I told him I was spending the night with Kris." Bo said.
     "Yeah." Luke said in agreement.
     "Oh." Daisy said, thinking there had to be more to it then that. Luke was acting so crazy it couldn't have just been he was hung over. Then she looked over at Lexie and Kris, and noticed their chains.  A fearful look spread over her face.
     "What is on your chains?" she asked accusingly.
     "What?" both Lexie and Kris asked at the same time.
     "I asked you what is on your chains." Daisy said. There was a note of demanding in her voice.
     "Nothing, they are just plain gold chains." Lexie said.
     "I don't believe you, prove it." Daisy said.
     "Daisy, what is all this about?" Bo asked.
 Daisy didn't respond, she just stared at Lexie and Kris, who took their chains out and showed them to Daisy. There was nothing on the chains.
     "But..." Daisy started to say.
     "Are you trying to accuse them of something? That ain't very nice." Bo said his voice sounded cold.
     "It's just that...I just...." Daisy started to say.
     "Just what? How dare you accuse them of anything. Apologize now. "Bo said his voice was cold and dark.
 Daisy flinched. She could never remember Bo talking that way, ever, even before with everything that had happened he never talked that way. Without thinking she took a couple steps back away from Bo. She looked at him, she thought his eyes looked almost black as he stood watching her, his gaze was cold and uncaring.
     "Sorry." she said, glancing over at Lexie and Kris.
     "Well I don't think we are gonna stick around here any longer." Bo said.
Luke, Lexie, and Kris turned and walked out the door. Bo stopped and put his hand against Daisy's cheek. She wanted to pull away, his touch was icy cold, and she actually feared it. "Now it wasn't very nice to go accuse Lexie and Kris like that. Not nice at all." Bo said, his voice dark and cold.
     "I'm sorry, Bo." Daisy said, tears starting to fill her eyes. She felt afraid of Bo and started to shiver.
 Bo just smiled, however there was nothing friendly about it at all. Bo's eyes grew dark and Daisy became unaware of everything else around them.
     "Daisy don't be afraid. I would never hurt you. You know that. This doesn't concern you at all. Why don't you just go back to the farm. Just forget anything ever happened, cause nothing did. Everything is fine, everything is normal. Just go home Daisy." Bo said. His voice was deep, dark and uncaring sounding. Daisy nodded.
     "Yeah everything is fine, everything is normal."
 Bo pulled away from Daisy, his eyes their normal colour. "See ya later."
     "Yeah, okay, bye." Daisy said as Bo left the Boar's Nest.
 Cooter stood looking confused. "What was all that about?"
     "Nothing. Everything is fine Cooter. I'm going back to the farm now." Daisy said and turned and left.
 Cooter stood for a couple moments trying to figure out what was going on, then went after Daisy.
 Bo joined Luke, Lexie and Kris, on the rise that over looked The Boar's Nest.
     "Well is Daisy gonna be a problem?" Luke asked.  Bo shook his head.
     "No she won't be a problem at all. Nothing to worry about there, cuz."
     "What about Cooter?" Luke asked.
     "He shouldn't be no problem. But if he gets in the way or causes any problems we'll just have to take care of him, like anyone else who dares get in our way." Bo said, watching as Cooter drove towards the Duke farm, after Daisy. Then Bo and Luke reached up and touched their amulets and there was a flash of light and the four of them were transported back to the temple.
 Daisy pulled to stop in front of the farm about 10 minutes later, Cooter following close behind.
     "Daisy, are you okay?" Cooter asked concernedly.
     "Yeah I'm fine. Everything is fine there is nothing wrong." Daisy said.
     "Yeah but..." Cooter said following Daisy into the front room.
     "But what, Cooter? Everything is fine." Daisy.
 Cooter stood watching Daisy trying to figure out what was going on. He figured something had to be going on for her mood to change so sudden like that.
 Daisy moved around the front room, she was smiling and acting like nothing was wrong, and that nothing had happened earlier. Then she stopped, and was looking at the door to Jesse's room, it hung open a crack. She stood staring at the door, the smile quickly fled her face, in its place: a look of dismay. Tears started to form in her eyes and slowly flow down her cheeks. She turned and looked at Cooter.
     "Everything is not okay, is it?"
 Cooter shook his head. "Not hardly."
 Daisy went over by Cooter who hugged her for a couple moments until her tears stopped. She took a step back from Cooter.
"Everything is anything but okay. What is going on?"
     "I don't know...but I think maybe we should go up to Eagle Point..."Cooter said not finishing his sentence. Daisy knew what he meant though.
     "Do you think that....but it was destroyed."
     "Yeah but maybe this just has something to do with that." Cooter said. Daisy bit back the tears she could feel burning in her eyes.
     "I thought it was over though, I thought it could never come back."
     "So did I but I think it would be best if we went to check it out." Cooter said.
 Daisy nodded. "Yeah I think that you are right."
 They went out and got into Cooter's tow truck and headed off towards Eagle Point. They both hoped that they were wrong about what they were thinking.
     Bo stood by the alter looking through the book for a spell. Luke stood a couple of feet away from him, on his right. Lexie and Kris stood a few feet behind the both of them. Then Bo laid the book down on the pillar. He glanced over the spell again, then took out his pocket knife, and slit the palm of his right hand open. then rubbed his hand all over the top of the alter, smearing his blood all over it. Then he reached up and took ahold of his amulet. He closed his eyes, the amulet began to glow a brightly, then Bo's hand was consumed with a golden light. After a few seconds the amulet stopped glowing. Bo opened his eyes and lowered his hand. The cut had been completely healed. Luke, Kris and Lexie stood silently as they watched Bo preform the spell. Bo started to recite the spell from the book. Outside the sky grew red and dark, ominous clouds started to form in the sky. Bolts of lighting streaked across the blood-coloured sky, followed instantaneously by a loud crack of thunder. The whole temple started to vibrate.
     Cooter pulled to a stop in front of the temple. They both just sat staring fearfully at the temple. Neither spoke a word. They knew they had to go inside, they knew that Bo and Luke were in danger. They looked up at the storm. Daisy shuddered, Cooter placed a hand on her shoulder to comfort her, then they made their way inside the temple. They were just inside the temple, when hail started to beat down. The hail stones were about the size of a quarter. They were not the normal colour either, they were a deep crimson red. The wind started to pick up, bending the trees, and rain started to pour down. Daisy and Cooter looked out of the temple, and couldn't even see Cooter's truck, which was parked only a few feet away. They then turned and began to make their way deeper into the temple. They reached the entrance and the sight froze Daisy in terror. She saw Bo and Luke standing there dressed in all black. Bo was reciting a spell from the book, she could hear the evil in the words. His voice was dark, cold and emotionless as he recited the spell. The alter glowed a deep golden colour, that reflected off every wall consuming everything and everyone in the room. The candles burned in pure red flame.
Daisy started to shake, her eyes filled with tears.
     "Oh Cooter...it is too late, the...evil is back...and it has Bo and Luke." Daisy said her voice shaking filled with fear and grief. Cooter stood watching, also in fear. He put his arm around Daisy's shoulder.
     "It may not be too late. We have to try to stop Bo from finishing the spell."
     "What good would that do?" Daisy asked never taking her eyes off what was happening in the room.
     "I think it would help, I just got the feeling I can sense the spell is pure evil, if we stop him from completing the spell perhaps we can save them." Cooter said trying to hide the fear in his voice.
     "Do you think we can stop it?" Daisy asked.
     "We have to try." Cooter said.
 Daisy took a deep breath and nodded. "Okay I am ready."
 The two of them moved into the room un-noticed by anyone. Daisy made her way to the pillar that held the book. Cooter was a few feet behind her. Daisy tore the page from the book and flung it into the flame and slammed the book shut. Everything returned to normal in the room, everyone came out of the trance they were in.
     "How dare you interfere, mortal." Bo said. His voice was so dark that Daisy barely even recognized it.
 She was filled with fear, unable to speak or move. Bo stared at her, his eyes black as coal, filled with hatred. Luke, Kris and Lexie, just stood there watching the confrontation between Bo and Daisy. They didn't notice Cooter, who had snuck around to the far side of the pillar. He picked up the book and flung it into the cauldron, the book was engulphed by the flame. The spell that had been over Lexie and Kris was broken, they stood there looking shocked and bewildered. The spell over Luke was also broken. He removed his amulet and laid it down on the alter. However, the evil did not lose its hold on Bo, if anything it seemed to tighten its grip on him. Bo glared at Cooter, he held his amulet and a powerful gust of wind came out of nowhere and flug Cooter across the room. He hit the wall and landed over by Lexie and Kris. They bent down to be sure he was okay. Cooter just had the wind knocked out of him.
     "Bo..." Luke started to say. Bo just glared at Luke coldly .
     "Silence traitor. I care not what you have to say."
 In a quick movement Bo picked up Luke's half of the amulet and slid it around his neck, and connected the two halves. There was a brilliant almost blinding flash of light as the two halves joined. Luke and Daisy stared fearfully and worriedly at Bo. Bo looked over at Daisy.
     "How dare you interfere with the spell mortal. That was not a wise thing do, dear cousin." Then Bo raised his hand towards Daisy and a bolt of energy shot out and struck her. She was flung against the same wall that Cooter had been earlier. Cooter bent down beside her and helped her sit upright. Her youth had been taken away. Daisy sat there shaking with fear, as she watched Bo. Cooter put his arm around her. Luke moved towards Bo.
     "You can't do this Bo." Luke said.
     "Oh, and why can't I?" Bo asked.
     "Because this ain't like you. Don't let this evil consume you like this." Luke said.
     "Silence! I do not have to listen to you, cousin. You are nothing more then a mere mortal. I am a whole lot more. I have more power now then you could even begin to imagine." Bo said coldly.
     "Bo, you have to fight this evil." Luke said his voice filled with worry. He was also filled with fear but tried to keep it hidden. Mostly he was just worried about Bo he didn't want to lose Bo to the evil.
     "I don't gotta do nothing." Bo said. His eyes began to grow even darker, as he closed his hand around the amulet. A gold light filled the room, and a strong wind blew through the room. There was a loud rumbling. Luke, Lexie, Kris, Daisy and Cooter were all transported out of the temple, landing a couple feet away from the temple stairs. The storm was over but the sky remained a deep, blood red. Luke was the first the get up and he made his way back towards the temple, he was determined to save Bo.
 Then a beast appeared atop the stairs. It was the size of a large full grown male grizzly bear, as it sat upon its haunches. It was covered in long black shaggy fur.  On its huge paws were long curved claws. It snarled at them and showed its long, sharp glistening teeth. It stared at them with its narrow slit eyes, that were crimson red in colour. It's short, pointed ears laid back against its large skull. It started to growl, the sound of which was eerie.
 Cooter put a hand on Luke's shoulder and pulled him back. "I don't think you can just walk past that beast."
     "There has to be a way to get inside...there has to be away to save Bo." Luke said.
     "Well we need a plan or something, we can't just go barging in. I don't think that would do us...or Bo any good." Cooter said.
 Lexie and Kris still had looks of bewildered looks on their faces. They both felt really bad about their roles in aiding the evil's return to Hazzard. They both stood silently staring at the temple as though unable to believe anything that was going on.
 Lexie then spoke. "Look I am really sorry about...about everything I did."
     "So am I." Kris said.
 Luke just looked over and them. "It's okay. I know it wasn't y'alls fault. I do understand what made you do what you did." Luke said sincerely. He really did understand, and knew it wasn't their fault. He knew first hand the power the evil had over one's mind, and that when the evil possessed you, you had no control over your actions.
 They made their way over to Cooter's tow truck.
     "Maybe we should go get some arrows or a gun or something, to try to get rid of that beast." Luke said glancing back at the beast which sat as a guardian of the temple.
     "We would like to help you get Bo back." Kris said.
     "And destroy this evil." Lexie added.
     "Thanks." Luke said.
 Then they all got into Cooter's truck and made their way to the Duke farm, to come up with a plan to get rid of the beast, destroy the evil, and save Bo.
 Bo stood beside the alter unblinking. His eyes were a deep, dark black, filled with hatred. He had his right hand closed tightly around the amulet, and he stared at the fire. Then slowly the book began to rise out of the fire. Its cover was tarnished with soot and ash, and the pages were burned and the spells were no longer legible. It took about ten minutes for the book to rise out of the flames. Then it settled to rest on top of the alter. Bo stared at the book, his hand still around the amulet. The book then started to glow, a low rumbling could be heard. After about another ten minutes the book had been repaired. Its cover and pages looked as though they had not been burned by fire, the book was completely untarnished. Then the book floated back to its place on the pillar. Bo dropped his hand from the amulet. His eyes were still black, but were a lighter black, closer to the normal shade of  deep blue that his eyes truly were. The restoration of the book had taken quite a toll on Bo, and his whole body dully ached, it left him quite exhausted. He leaned against the alter and closed his eyes, he drew power from the amulet. There was an evil power that flowed through the alter, it slowly started to restore Bo's strength.
     At the Duke farm Luke went out to the barn and got a bow, some arrows, and supplies for making dynamite. He took them inside and set them on the table. There were ten arrows, they turned half of them into dynamite arrows. Everyone worked in silence. Both Lexie and Kris could remember what they had done to Bo and Luke while the evil possessed them and they felt real bad about it. They both blamed themselves for what was happening to Bo. They felt it was their fault that this evil had returned to Hazzard and repossessed Bo and Luke. Daisy and Cooter realised their thoughts were only half right before about Lexie and Kris. They didn't blame them for what had happened and what was happening. They knew that Lexie and Kris had been possessed by the evil and it wasn't really their fault, they could not control their actions. Daisy kind of understood what it was like being possessed by the evil, and felt no anger towards Lexie or Kris, only felt anger towards the evil. Luke understood it more about why Lexie and Kris did what they did, as he was also fully possessed by the evil, and did things that would haunt him the rest of his life. Luke moved silently in to the front room as everyone else was packing the arrows into Cooter's truck and Dixie. They decided they may need two vehicles. Luke looked at a picture that was sitting on the mantel of the fireplace. It was of him, Daisy and Bo. The picture had been taken about a month before Jesse had died, they all looked so happy. He looked at the pictures and smiled at the thoughts of the way things once had been. Back at a time before the evil had ever come to Hazzard, when everything was perfect and everyone was happy. A single tear rolled down his cheeks, he felt a hand on his shoulder and he turned around. Daisy stood there.
     "Are you okay?" Daisy asked concernedly.
     "Yeah I'm fine. Just thinking is all." Luke said.
 Daisy saw the picture and felt tears start to form in her eyes, she held them back though.  "I just wish that things could be that way again." she said softly.
 Luke nodded. "I know what you mean."
 Daisy hugged Luke, she couldn't hold back the tears any longer. Luke put his arm around her. "Don't worry everything is gonna be okay. We will get Bo back."
 Daisy stopped crying and then went outside with everyone else. Luke went to put the picture back, when a voice in his mind told him to bring the picture with him. He trusted that voice, he slid the picture out of the frame and carefully folded the picture and slid it into his pocket. Then he went outside to join everyone else. Cooter went in his tow truck and Luke, Daisy, Lexie and Kris went in Dixie.
     At the temple Bo had started to regain the strength he had lost from restoring the book. The flame by the alter seemed larger then normal. Bo's eyes where back to a very deep dark black as he stood staring at the fire. From the fire came a deep voice that was extremely evil sounding.
     "They are coming to destroy you. They don't think you deserve such power. They want to take it all away from you. They want to kill."
     "What should I do?" Bo asked.
     "You must take care of them. You must eliminate them." the voice said. As it spoke the flame grew larger.
     "Where are they now?" Bo asked.
 The flame changed to a golden colour, then Bo could see them headed towards the temple. They were on Ridge road, about five minutes away from the temple. Bo closed his hand around the amulet.
     "I will take care of them." he said in a voice barely above a whisper. The sound of an engine starting up filled the temple, then the General appeared in front of the temple, reeving its engine. "They are on Ridge road. Run them off the road, but do not kill them. Leave that to me." Bo spoke his voice dark and very evil sounding. Then the General sped off towards Ridge road.
 Luke was driving Dixie, and Cooter was following close behind. Cooter glanced into the rear view mirror and saw the General quickly closing in, and noticed their was nobody driving the car. He grabbed the CB.
     "Hey y'all we got us some company, and I don't think its friendly."
 Luke glanced in the side mirror and saw the General fast approaching. The General then slammed into the back end of Cooter's truck. Luke picked up the CB.  "Okay I see him Cooter, I'm gonna drop back and try to run the General off the road."
     "Okay Lukas Dukas, you do that, just hurry up or it will be me that gets runned off the road."
 Luke dropped back and went alongside the General, then slammed into the side. They were approaching a sharp corner. Luke grabbed the CB. "Hey Cooter once you hit the corner slam on the brakes I got an idea on how to get the General off of us."
     "Whatever you say." Cooter responded.
 Cooter hit the brakes on the corner. The General went to speed up to ram his stopped vecihcle when Luke slammed into the side of the car, and knocked it off the road. The General flew into the air off the side of the road and landed in the pond. Then they sped off towards the temple.
 Bo had been watching what was happening in the flame.
     "Dang it. How did they  get past the General like that?"
 The flame returned to its normal colour.
     "They must not be allowed to enter this temple. If they do they will destroy you." the voice spoke once again.
     "They will not past the guardian." Bo spoke, then closed his hand around the amulet once more. "When they reach the temple I want you to kill all of them, except for my cousin Luke. I want to finish him off myself."
 Outside the guardian howled, in acceptance of its orders to kill the intruders, except the one, which was to be left alive for its master to destroy.
 Luke, Daisy, Lexie, Kris, and Cooter where only about a minute from the temple when they heard the howl of the beast. The howl was so icy and evil sounding it sent a chill down each of the backs. They pulled to stopped in the bushes in front of the temple, just out of the guardian's view. A cool breeze blew through the trees and the guardian started to growl and move down the steps of the temple towards the bushes. Luke figured to draw the beasts attention away. He moved silently into the nearby bushes on the right. The he took out one of the dynamite arrows and shot it at the beast. At the last second the beast made a lunge forward and the arrow missed the beast. It was going to hit the temple when it exploded in mid air. The beast looked over at Luke, its eyes glared evilly at him. Luke felt a chill go down his back. Then the beast turned its attention away from Luke and back towards everyone else. The beast lunged into the bushes, Cooter, Daisy, Lexie and Kris scrambled to get out of the beast's way. Lexie, Kris, and Daisy managed to avoid getting hit by the beast but Cooter didn't. Cooter was knocked down by the beast as it swung one of its large paws at him. He fell to the ground and the beast moved in over top of him. The beast snarled and snapped at Cooter's head. He managed to move out of the way just enough to avoid the beast's jaw. Daisy, Lexie and Kris tried to get the beast off of Cooter but their attempts were futile, the beast took no notice of the attempts. Cooter tried to struggle to break away from the beast but couldn't. The cuts across his chest from the beast's sharp claws stung as he tried to move. Luke quickly moved over behind the beast. He took one of the arrows and plunged it into the beast's back. The beast let out a howl in pain, then staggered off of Cooter to confront its attacker. The beast stood still just staring at Luke, which gave Cooter time to slip away unnoticed by the beast. Luke loaded another arrow and lowered it at the beast. The beast stood still as though it were awaiting orders. Luke fired the arrow and struck the beast through the heart. The beast made a staggering movement forward making a low growling sound then it dropped to the ground and died.
     "Is it dead?" Daisy asked.  Luke went over to the beast and kicked it with his foot.  "Yeah it's dead." Then he looked at Cooter who was sitting against a tree. "Are you okay?"
     "Yeah, I'm fine." Cooter responded.
 Luke looked up at temple. "Well we'd better getting moving before something else happens."
 Everyone nodded in agreement. They made their way up the temple's steps, Luke was a few feet ahead of everyone. Luke entered the temple when there was a bright flash of light. A force field appeared stopping everyone else from entering and Luke from exiting. Luke decided it was best just to continue on. He was filled with a deep worry about Bo. Luke knew he had to find him soon before it was too late. He knew he had to save Bo from this evil. Luke made his way down the dimly lit corridors of the temple, trying to think of just how he was going to free Bo from the hold the evil had on him. He couldn't think of what he was going to do and he began to fill with dread that when he found Bo he wouldn't know how to save him. He also worried that he wouldn't be able to save Bo and that he would be lost forever to the evil.
     When Luke reached the main room a feeling of apprehension swept over him. The main room was brightly lit, by the large flame that burned in pit by alter, as well as numerous small candles along the walls. Bo stood by the alter, facing the door. Bo noticed Luke moving in the shadows by the door.  Bo smiled. There was nothing friendly at all in the smile, only evil could be seen in it.
     "Come into my parlour said the spider to the fly." Bo said, then laughed an evil, cold sounding laugh that sent a chill through Luke.
 Luke took a deep breath and stepped slowly into the room. He stood staring at Bo, he could see that Bo's eyes were dark and filled with evil. Luke didn't know what to say or do, his mind felt as though it had gone blank. Only one thought ran through his mind over and over again and that was to save Bo.
     "Took you long enough to get here." Bo said.
     "Bo, you have to fight this evil. This ain't you. You..." Luke started to say.
     "SILENCE!" Bo said in a commanding tone. "You have no right to tell me what to do. I do not have to listen to you. And besides, what do you care?"
 Luke stood shocked for a moment, taken back by the harshness in Bo's voice.  "This is not you Bo. This evil is taking over you. You're my cousin, I don't want to lose you."
     "Save it, dear cousin. I know the truth. I know that you do not care." Bo said.
     "That is not true, Bo. This evil is filling your head with lies. I do care. You are my cousin, you are my best friend in the world."
     "Shut up! You are a liar, cousin. And you are also a traitor. For this you will be destroyed." Bo said.
     "I am not lying to you. Bo you have to fight this evil don't let it consume you. If I didn't care, why would I have come here to save you?" Luke asked.
 Bo stood silent, unable to think of an answer to that. Then he heard a deep voice inside his head.
     "He came to take this power away from you. He don't think you deserve it. He hates you. Think of how he tried to kill you." then flashes of the night Luke tried to kill him came into his mind. "He despises you. He wants to destroy you."
 Luke watched as Bo stood there silently, he saw Bo's face had gone pale. Luke walked over and placed a hand on Bo's shoulder.
     "Bo are you okay?" he asked worriedly.
 Bo didn't respond, he could still hear the other voice talking to him.
     "You must destroy him before he destroys you." Bo then pulled away from Luke and stared coldly at him.
     "You came here to take away my powers, you don't think I deserve such power. You hate me and you want to destroy me."
     "Bo that is not true. None of it is true. I came here to save you." Luke said.
Bo stood thinking. Something in his mind told him what Luke was saying was the truth, yet the other voice told him it wasn't.  In his mind the other voice seemed more real and so he believed it to be the truth.
     "Enough lies cousin. I know the truth. Stop denying the truth."
 Luke was filled with deep dread and worry.  He feared that it was too late and that the evil had totally consumed Bo's mind and soul.
     "Bo I am not lying to you. I never have lied to you and I never would. You have to fight this evil, don't let it consume you. Fight it, cousin."
     "Silence. I have heard enough out of you." Bo said. Then he reached up and closed his hand around the amulet. He glared at Luke. Then there was an ice cold gust of wind the swept Luke across the room and pinned him to the wall above the floor. Bo's hand closed tighter around the amulet as he glared at Luke. Luke felt as though an icy hand had closed around his lungs. He tried to breathe but couldn't. He gasped for air, but all that happened then was an icy stabbing pain shot through his whole body. Then the pressure loosened on his lungs and he was flung back across the room. His head struck the alter as he fell to the ground. He lay still gasping for air. His lungs burned. He tried to get up but fell exhaustedly to the ground.
     "Get up cousin." Bo said, his voice harsh and demanding.
 Luke made no movement to get up. Bo kicked Luke in the ribs, and Luke flinched in pain.
     "I said get up." Bo said his voice even more demanding.
 Slowly Luke started to get up. His ribs ached and he held them as he rose.
Bo grabbed Luke by the back of the neck, drug him to his feet and flung him back against the alter. Luke flinched in pain.
     "You are nothing more then a liar and a traitor cousin and you will be destroyed. But first you will witness the deaths of those that accompanied you here." Bo said his voice cold and emotionless.
 The fire grew in brightness and the flame rose high. Luke could see Daisy, Cooter, Lexie, and Kris outside the temple. He could see the worry and fear on their faces. The sky was changing colours in a swirl of red and black. A loud crack of thunder rolled across the sky. Bright strokes of lightening flashed across the sky. Rain started to pour down and a strong wind began to blow. Cooter, Daisy, Lexie, and Kris ran to try to find cover. They went to get into to Cooter's truck, but it was caught by a gust of wind which flipped it over.
 Luke looked away from the fire. "Bo you can't do this."
     "And why can't I?" Bo asked.
     "Because this is not you. You are not evil. You have to fight this evil. Don't let it do this to you." Luke said. Bo pinned Luke tighter against the alter.
     "Shut up. You know nothing." Bo's voice was so dark, cold and evil, that Luke barley even recognized it any more. Bo's hand was still around the amulet and he closed it tight around it. Luke felt a sharp pain shoot through his body.
     "Bo, you have to fight the evil. Don't let it consume you. I don't want to lose you. Fight it...please." Luke said
     "SHUT UP!" Bo yelled at Luke his voice filled with evil. The flame diminished, it no longer showed what was going on outside. Luke couldn't hear any thunder and hoped that the storm was gone. The book fluttered open to a spell. Bo let go of Luke and moved towards the open book.
     "Bo stop...." Luke said. Bo turned to face Luke, he glared evil at him.
     "Don't tell me what to do."
 Luke had no idea what to say. He had never seen Bo this way ever, not even when the evil had first came to Hazzard. Then Luke heard a voice in his head it told him to take the picture out and show it Bo. Luke slowly took out the picture and unfolded it.
     "What is that?" Bo asked grabbing the picture away from Luke. Bo stood staring almost blankly at the picture.
     "Bo you have to fight this. See I ain't lying to you." Luke said.
 Bo's eyes slowly returned to their normal colour as Bo stood looking at the picture.
     "Bo..." Luke started to say but never finished - Bo cut his sentence off.
     "It is a lie...you are a traitorous liar." Bo said then dropped the picture. It slowly fluttered to the floor. He held his head between his hands, and closed his eyes tightly.
Luke put his hand on Bo's shoulder. He looked at Bo worriedly.
     "You got to fight this, cousin. I don't want to lose you."
 Bo opened his eyes and looked and Luke. His eyes were filled with torment.
     "I can't. It's too strong...I just can't fight it. I ain't strong enough to fight it." Bo said, his voice soft.
     "You can fight it. You have to. You can beat it. You just have to try." Luke said.
Bo pulled away from Luke. His eyes retuned to the deep black shade. "Shut up!"
 Bo stared at Luke. He could hear the deep voice in his mind telling him that he had to destroy Luke, before Luke destroyed him. Bo didn't want to believe the voice, he tried to refuse to listen to it, but it seemed the harder he tried to fight it the stronger it got. The amulet was glowing brightly. Luke saw the amulet had started glowing, he knew that the evil had a lot to do with that amulet. Luke figure that he had to get the amulet off Bo and that would help to save Bo from the evil's hold on him. Luke reached out and grabbed the amulet, an electric shock ran through his body sending him stumbling back a couple paces. Bo smiled and laughed, the laugh was filled with evil.
     "You are a pitiful fool. You cannot win. You will be destroyed." He closed his hand around the amulet. Luke felt as though his lungs were been crushed. He tried to catch his breath, but every time he inhaled his lungs burned. Luke dropped to the floor, desperately trying to breathe. His eyes were filled with pain as he looked up at Bo. Bo stood watching as Luke tried to breathe, he didn't want to be hurting Luke at all but the voice told him he had to kill him. Bo refused to listened to the voice. Bo's eyes returned to their normal colour he released his hand from the amulet.  Luke lay for a couple moments to catch his breath then started to try to get up. Bo gave Luke a hand to stand up. Luke put a hand on both of Bo's shoulders. His lungs were still sore. He looked at Bo's eyes and saw they were filled with pain.
     "It's gonna be okay Bo." he said quietly. Luke saw Bo's eyes starting to change back to black then back to blue. The two colours seemed to swirl together in turmoil. Bo closed his eyes then took a step back pulling away from Luke's hold. Bo opened his eyes, they were their normal shade of deep blue. He brushed his blonde bangs out of his eyes. Then he reached up and took a hold of the amulet's chain, and removed it from around his neck. Then he smashed the amulet against the alter. The amulet shattered into tiny fragments. The alter began flow with blood, the blood streamed down its sides, pooling on the floor. Above the alter a large, swirling, red and gold portal appeared.
     "NOOO!" said a deep evil voice from the other side, the same voice that Bo had been hearing in his mind.
 Luke moved over and stood by Bo. All of a sudden a great gust of wind came through the portal, which flung both Bo and Luke across the room. They struck the far wall, the wind vanished and they fell the floor. Luke had been knocked out when he struck the wall. Bo moved to check on Luke.
     "Luke are you okay??" he asked worriedly. He saw that Luke was unconscious. Luke's breathing was shallow and slow. Bo felt tears watering in his eyes but he bit them back. "Come on Luke wake up. You hear me, cousin? You wake up now. You can't leave me." Bo said his voice was filled with sadness.
 Luke's breathing became more shallow and seemed to almost cease. Bo checked for a pulse, it was very weak. Bo's eyes were filled with tears, he closed his eyes to hold the back, and yet a single tear rolled down his cheek. Then an evil laughter started. Bo looked back towards the portal, it seemed to have doubled in size.
     "You are a fool, mortal. You didn't actually think you could win, did you?" the voice questioned.
 Bo slowly stood up facing the portal. He remained silent as he started to walk towards the portal.
     Outside the storm had stopped a while ago but the sky was deep red and large black clouds swirled threatening to storm again. The four of them stood silently staring at the temple, which seemed to have come to life. It slowly pulsated, and a low pounding sound emanated from it.
     Inside the temple all the candles had grown in brightness. The portal seemed to grow with each passing second. Luke had started to wake up, he saw Bo approaching the portal and filled with worry. Luke slowly stood up, his head was pounding so hard he stumbled against the wall when he tried to walk.
     "This world will be destroyed. You could've had power, you foolish mortal, but now you will be destroyed along with the rest of this world." the voice said.
 Bo didn't responded he just continued to slowly walk towards the portal. Luke started to walk towards Bo, his pace was slower then Bo's he could barley even walk straight.
     "You are a pathetic mortal. Did you actually think you could destroy me? You couldn't do that, you can't do anything right. That is why nobody cares about you." the voice said evilly.
 Bo was over to the alter, he looked down and saw the picture, he bent down and picked it up.
 "That is not the truth. I don't believe your lies anymore, I know the truth." Bo said then grabbed the book and flung in into the portal.
 Luke had reached where Bo was standing just as he flung the book into the portal. There was a bright flash of light. The room ignited in a gold flame. Bo turned around to face Luke.
     "Are you okay?" he asked concernedly.
     "Yeah I'm fine. Are you okay?" Luke asked. Bo nodded.
     "I think we had better get out here, before this place burns to the ground."
     They started to walk towards the exist when the alter exploded, knocking them both the ground. Shards of the alter flew all across the room. One landed on Luke's leg. The dust quickly settled to the ground. Bo had dropped the picture and it become covered in a pile of dust and was not visible. Luke tried to move but couldn't. Bo moved the debris off Luke's leg and helped him stand up. The flames were growing larger and quickly filling in towards them. The exit still remained clear, but the flames were closing in on it.
     "Can you walk?" Bo asked.
 Luke tried to take a step, and a hot stabbing pain shot up his leg, he stumbled, but Bo caught him.
      "No, not a chance." Luke responded.
 Bo slid his arm around Luke and Luke leaned on to Bo's shoulders and he helped him towards the exit. Luke hobbled, avoiding putting any weight on his left leg. They went into the corridor, seconds after the flames closed in on the door. The corridor was unlit, all the candles had blown out, however they could see perfectly from the light of the fire. The flames had started to come down the corridor. They made it out of the temple. Daisy, Cooter, Lexie and Kris rushed over to see and to help. Bo helped Luke sit down on the ground over by Dixie.
     "Are you both okay?" Daisy asked worriedly.
     "Yeah, basically. I think Luke has a broken leg though." Bo said.
 They watched as within moments the temple crashed to the ground in a thunderous thud. The dust settled to the ground quickly. There was nothing but smoldering ash left, then it too vanished, leaving behind no more then a scorched mark in the land where the temple had stood. The clouds left the sky and the sun shone down brightly through the trees. They all got into Dixie. Bo helped Luke into the backseat, Daisy got in the backseat as well and sat between Bo and Luke. Cooter drove and Lexie and Kris sat up front. They took Luke to the doctor's. Luke's leg was broken and he had a cast put on. Then they went back to the Dukes' farm.
 They decided it was best not to just try to bury the evil and pretend it didn't happen this time, they thought it would be best to talk about it. Lexie and Kris told them that they were not really sisters and again apologized for what they had done when the evil had consumed them. Nobody held it against them, they all knew perfectly well the powers the evil had over your mind, especially Bo and Luke. Lexie and Kris decided to stay in Hazzard after everything that happened they thought it would too hard for them to return to their homes, and too hard to deal with it all alone.
 The next day, as the dawn's early light shone over the hills of Hazzard, Bo got up and left the farmhouse. Luke woke and noticed that he was gone and got up. He hobbled out the door on his crutches and saw the General just disappearing around the bend. He went and got into to Dixie and followed after him. Bo drove to the graveyard, Luke was a couple minutes down the road behind him. Bo walked through the graveyard and over to Jesse's grave. He stood staring down at the stone. Thoughts of what he had seen that night, that the evil had shown him about Jesse not caring began to surface in his mind. Bo could feel tears start to burn his eyes, he wondered if there was truth in those words. He closed his eyes to try to hold back the tears, but still a few tears escaped rolling down his cheeks. He started to think of everything that had happened and everyone that he had hurt. He filled with guilt. He felt so bad about everything that he had done, and was blaming himself for what happened. He thought of how he had forced Luke to allow the evil to reconsume him.
 Luke arrived at the graveyard and saw Bo standing there. He got out of the jeep and hobbled on his crutched over to where Bo was. Bo heard someone coming up behind him and turned to see who it was. Bo didn't say anything he just turned and looked back down at the grave. Luke walked over and stood beside him. Luke had saw the look of  sadness and contrition in Bo's eyes. Bo stood silently trying to hold back the tears that filled his eyes, but slowly that slipped down his cheeks. Luke adjusted his weight on the crutches and put a hand onto Bo's shoulder.
     "It is all my fault, I never meant to hurt anyone. I didn't want, I just... it's all my fault. I can't do anything right." Bo said quietly.
     "That is not true. What happened was not all your fault. Nothing that happened was your fault. And you can to do things right." Luke said.
     "But..." Bo started to say.
     "That wasn't true. What the evil showed you was not at all true. You don't actually think that he would say those things, do you?" Luke asked.
 Bo shrugged. "I don't know. It just all seemed so real."
     "I know it seemed real, but it is not true. I mean really think about and you will know it is not true. I know that he would never say those things or feel that way. I thought before it was but I know now in my heart it is not. You just got to believe that as well." Luke said.
 Bo took a deep breath and looked at the stone. He thought about what Luke was saying, he thought about times before the evil had come, before Jesse had died and he knew that Luke was right. Bo looked at Luke and nodded. "Yeah, I guess you're right. But it still was all my fault, everything that happened."
     "That is not true none of what happened was your fault. You cannot blame yourself." Luke said.
     "Yeah but..." Bo started say.
     "There are no buts about it. You are not at all to blame. Nobody is to blame. The evil consumes the mind. Nobody blames you." Luke said.
     "I do." Bo said looking away from Luke.
     "You can't blame yourself, it wasn't your fault." Luke said.
 Bo didn't respond, he stared towards the rising sun that lit the sky in beautiful orangeish colour.
     "Well, do you blame me then for what all happened before?" Luke asked.
 Bo looked back at Luke. "No of course not."
     "Well then you can't blame yourself. It is the exact same thing. Just don't worry about it, everything will be fine now." Luke said.
 Bo thought about what Luke was saying and realized it was the truth and that he couldn't blame himself for what had happened.
     "Yeah you're right, again." Bo said and smiled.
 Luke smiled back. "Come on, let's go back home now."
 Bo nodded in agreement. They hooked Dixie to the back of the General. Then Bo helped Luke with his crutches and to get into the passenger's side of the General, then he went around and got in the drivers side and they sped back towards the farm.
