After 2 days, our protagonists arrive in the great city of Hollywood, passing through many well known places and where movies or series are being recorded.
"We've arrived, the big city of Hollywood," Garble said, taking in the sights.
"I've come here many times, it has its advantages and disadvantages," Sunset told everyone.
"Well, we'd better find a place to stay and then go get James," Spike suggested to everyone as he searched for somewhere.
"I've been here a few times, but there are many places to rent rooms," Starlight gave the green haired her suggestion.
"Hmmm... How about we camp? Like we did in Hazzard," Applejack finished suggesting, to which the Dukes nodded.
"Sunset, lead the way where we can rent tents."
Thirty minutes later.
The Dukes with their friends are a few meters below the big Hollywood sign, with 3 camping tents.
"Well, good place to camp," Twilight looked around where they were.
"It's perfect, besides, we'll have to share a tent," Sigourney said while looking at Spike and subtly biting her lip, something that doesn't go unnoticed by the boy and Jackie.
"You're right about that, so you have to choose who-."
"I choose with Spike!" Applejack said quickly, cutting Eliza off.
"Fast girl, but I can be fast too,"Sunset told herself mentally, feeling jealous.
So the day goes by, the girls staying at the camp while the boys drive across town in search of their older cousin.
"All the streets are the same, it will take time to find a headquarters," Gabriel said as he looked at the streets.
"We'll find a headquarters soon, be patient," Spike told him as he drove, taking in the buildings as well.
"We'd better go grocery shopping, then we'll find Shining," Garble said as he listened to his stomach growl.
Spike nods and drives to find a store as people admire his car and the fact that an 18 year old is driving.
"Look at that car, you don't see a Dodge around here every day," said a young man in punk gear.
"Contact the gang, we already have a car," his partner replied with a smile.
An hour later.
The 2 Dukes go out to buy and put the food in the back, they are about to get on but they see that 5 motorcyclists are approaching and stop in front of them.
"Uhh... Do you need anything?" Spike hesitated, since he didn't know anything about the city.
"Yes, we want your car," the leader of the bikers said bluntly.
"Oh of course not, the General Lee isn't for sale," Garble replied quickly.
"We weren't asking you if it's for sale or not. Guys," upon calling out, the other 4 start approaching with knives or cracking their knuckles.
In that, the cousins run to their car and get in, starting the engine and getting out of there as quickly as possible, almost running over the gang, they get on the motorcycles and start chasing them.
"Who knew our first day here would be like this," Spike said wryly.
They continue to drift through the streets while the other people around watch the chase. Soon both Dukes see the street that leads to their camp, but there are several cars passing by and they see the gang getting closer.
It is then that they see a freighter in front with the ramp going down, this makes the green haired smile and the orange haired hold on to his seat. Then he starts running again and jumps thanks to the ramp going through all the cars and causing the pedestrians to be surprised by this.
They land safely and honk, taunting their pursuers who look at them in anger and shock.
"Where do they come from?" Asked one of them seeing them do that.
"They look like they're from the country, so they're not from the city," the leader replied as he left with the others.
The cousins return to the camp and when they get out of the car, they all give a high five, the girls see them and are confused by the emotion they bring.
"What did they do this time?" Eliza asked with an accusing look, she knew what her cousins were capable of.
"This crazy guy used a freighter as a ramp to get through the cars!" Garble told them while pointing to Spike.
"What?!" Sunset and Starlight yelled in surprise.
"Hehe, another roller coaster ride," Jackie laughed at her own joke with a smile.
"Are they suicidal? Mom was worried last time they did that a year ago," Twilight chided as she lectured them both.
"Actually, Twilight, Spike almost got us killed by jumping a river and jumping in the middle of a train-."
"I don't know what you're talking about, Applejack!" He tried to interrupt her friend while smiling nervously.
But it was too late, an aura of death looms behind him, the young man slowly turns around to see his angry cousin.
"Spike Duke, it looks like you need discipline," Twilight said with a raised fist.
"Uhhhh... Don't hit me?" He tried to say something else, but shyness and fear got the better of him.
In the night.
They're all around a campfire roasting marshmallows, though Spike has a bump on his head and looks at his cousin with a mix of anger and nervousness.
"May it serve as a lesson not to do dangerous things," she told Drake.
"It's a good thing I didn't participate in that," Gabriel breathed a sigh of relief, knowing that sometimes Twilight could get rude to them when they did things like that.
"Well, if you don't mind, I'll go rest," Morgan said as she entered her tent.
"Me too, tomorrow we'll keep looking for Shining," Spike also said goodbye as he entered his tent closely followed by Jackeline.
The others finish their marshmallows and also go to rest, Sunset with Starlight and Twilight with her cousin Gabriel. Although with Spike, he feels someone hug him from behind and sees that it's Jackie, who sleeps with a smile. He gives her a smile and sleeps peacefully.
