THE REUNION

The sky was as blue has it could be over the Southfork plain, and everyone was getting ready for the big reunion, everyone would be coming this year, and the catiers were working overtime. J.R. and Sue Ellen had flown in to Dallas a couple of days ago, so Sue Ellen could help with the organizing.

"Sue Ellen," J.R. called walking out of the back door.

"Yes, my love," she said, while looking at a clip board.

"I'm going to run into Dallas, I have some old friends I need to see." J.R. walked up to his wife and gave her a kiss.

"But, J.R. people will be arriving soon." Sue Ellen said looking away from her clip board. J.R. looked at her and smiled,

"Now would I ever be late to a Ewing party?" J.R. got into his car and began to drive off. Sue Ellen just looked and shook her head.

Bobby and Pam sat on the air plane waiting for the desent to Dallas, they were about twenty minutes away and Pam was getting a little nervous, Bobby had made many trips to Dallas since they had remarried, but she didn't like to go back to Southfork to often. Her and Bobby had inherriated Clayton's, and Miss Ellie's house in Europe, and that was where Pam stayed most of the time.

"Pam, are you alright?" Bobby asked leaning over to look into his wifes eyes.

"Yes, I'm fine," Pam lied,

"No, you're not, your afriad to see the family, you get like this every time we go back." Bobby kissed his wife and leaned back into his seat.

A voice came over the intercom: "We will be completeing are desent to Dallas/Fort Worth, if you will please take your seats...."

Christopher rode up to the house on his new horse. He had taken John, and Jeanny (thats was what they called their daughter) out for an early ride. They got off their horses and had met Karen for breakfast.

"I didn't think you were ever going to get back." Karen said, kissing Christopher.

"Well, what can I say, I found these two, and they forced me to ride longer than usual." Christopher said, almost laughing.

"No Daddy, you told us that momma wouldn't care if we were late." Jeanny knew in saying that, it would make Christopher a little sweaty.

"I did?...MMMM, well, I must have meant.....nevermind, I'm out numbered anyway." The four sat at the table outside, eating their breakfast.

________________________________________________________

The doors to the elevators at the Ewing Office opened, and J.R. walked out, into the giantic waiting room, there stood a man named George Farmer. Farmer had just transferred to Dallas about a year ago, mostly so he could work for J.R. Even though J.R. wasn't in Dallas as much, he needed an inside man to let him know about certain things.

"Farmer, sorry I'm late, lets go into my office." J.R. lead Farmer into his office, even though he didn't have to much to do with the buisness anymore, him and Bobby still had offices there.

"J.R., I found out that she had moved to New York City, with her husband and her son." Farmer was a tall younger man. He found out about the job for J.R. through insiders in the Dallas Police Force.

"How long ago was that?" J.R. asked.

"About twleve years sir, after the move, it was hard to track her, she lost money and went under. I'm flying there tonight myself to see what I can find out."

"Good, I'm glad to see your on top of things. Let me know the minute you find out something."

"Yes sir." Farmer turned and left the office, J.R. looked around, it was Ewing Oil, but his mind flashback to the 1970's, when he and his Daddy worked side by side. That was all over now. It was the new generation to control Dallas, or at least part of it. J.R. sat in his chair and leaned back.

John Ross was sitting in the Southfork Study when Megan walked up to him.

"Daddy, I want you to meet someone," Megan pulled a hand and John Ross noticed a young man walk into the room. Daddy, this is Frankie Starr.

John Ross looked for a minute. Frankie went up to shake Johns hand, but John didn't offer it in return.

"It's a pleasure sir," Frankie said, backing off.

"You wouldn't be SAm Starrs son would ya?" John Ross asked.

"Daddy!" As a matter of fact he is.

"Megan, I don't want you to see this man," John said, then turning to Frankie, "Starr, I want you to get out of this house NOW!" Frankie looked at john then walked out,

'NO," Shouted Megan. "Daddy, you have no right, He's a good man." Megan ran out after Frankie.

On top of the second biggest building in Dallas sat one of the most wealthest men in all of Texas, Sam Starr. His uncle was once one of the main people in West Star until J.R. had him kicked out. And since the death of his uncle, he has been after J.R. With him was Mark Hughes, Sam's buiness partner.

"Mark, look at that, that damn building towers over mine like it was nothing." Sam said pointing to the Ewing Building.

"Yes, I know, we're still working on a way to make a corporate take over."

"You idoit, West Star is no more, that is a family buiness, you can't take over that." Sam replied.

"Almost true sir, except that Christopher and John Ross are the only two that vote, there are five other partners in the company, if..."

"Mark, that's it, if we can come up witha buisness deal, that one agrees on and the other doesn't, then we might be able to move in. " Sam stood there and looked at the Ewing building and laughed.

"I don't think anyone could do that Bob." David said, the five laughed and walked up to Southfork.

They were greeted by Bobby, Pam, Christopher and Karen.

"Bobby," Gary said, hugging his brother.

"how are you Gary? It's been a year." Bobby looked his older brother over.

"Well, I'm pretty good, think we're going to learn from you two, and travel." Gary said, leaning of over to hug Pam.

"Why Gary?" Pam asked, "You tired of buiness?"

"Well, if you ask me, I think that Dallas as gotten better now that Ewing is the main oil buisness in town." J.R. said.

"That is true uncle J.R., but we still have plenty of compitetion. Four State, has been giving us a run." Christopher said in reply to J.R.'s statement.

"Yeah, but we have big plans, that will help us." John Ross said looking at Christopher.

"What kind of plans?" Bobby asked.

"Well, Monday morning why don't you and Uncle J.R. come by the office and find out." Christopher said with a big grin.

"We'll do that." J.R. said has he got up and went to get another drink.

Charlie sat next to Pamala Rebecca and Karen, waiting for Ray. She and her husband Chris had just flown in from Italy, Charlie was doing some research on her fathers family there. As soon as Ray and Donna pulled up Charlie got up. Ray walked up to Charlie and gave her a big hug. Charlie barley touched Ray. Ray looked at Charlie. "Whats wrong honey?" Ray asked, Charlie just gave him an evil look.

"Ray, I..." Charlie was cut off by Bobby, as he came up to greet his brother and his family.

"Well now are we all here?"

Not yet Bob, Lucas and Margate still need to get here." Ray said, hugging his brother.

About that time a strectch limo pulled into the drive. Everyone watched as Lucas got out of the back, and then Margater, and her husband Micheal.

"Hey honey" Ray said, hugging her back.

"How's the Vice President?" Bobby said has hugged his neice.

"Pamala," Bobby said looking at her. "What are you doing here?"

"Well, Dad," Christopher begun, "Ewing Entrprises has been talking with Wentworth Industries about a merger, and they finally accepted." Christopher looked at his father, Bobby had a sign of distress on his face, but it was J.R. who spoke up.

"What kind of deal is that? It's a good thing that idiot Barnes is Dead, he is probably rolling in his grave . J.R. looked at his son, he was proud of him.

Pamala Rebecca looked at J.R. with evil eyes. "For your information, Daddy would love the fact that he would have stock in EWing Enterprises." J.R. looked at Pamala then laughed.

"John Ross, you have one heck of a woman there."

John Ross grinned, then looked at his father and Bobby. "Well, I guess we should get on with it." The five of them sat in the confrence room, signing papers for half the day.

"Thanks, but I think that Sue Ellen did most of it." Karen said, grinning a bit.

Sue Ellen, grinned also, "No, you helped a great deal, dear." Sue Ellen sat next to the other two women. "When will you and James be leaving?" Karen asked Debrah.

"Well, I'm not sure, I think James wants to help with the company for awhile." Sue Ellen and Karen looked at each other, both feeling the same thing.

"Well, I'm sure John Ross and Christopher would like the help." Karen said, getting up, "If you two would excuse me," Karen walked out of the study, she was thinking to herself, if James steps in, then J.R. will have his two sons in the company... Karen walked up to her room, to call Christopher.

Jimmy, Bobby and Lucas sat out by the pool swimming and talking.

"Well, I don't care, I think we should all have stock in the company." Bobby said while getting out of the pool.

"But, None of us even knew Jock. Why should we have any intrest in Ewing Oil?" Jimmy replied, sitting next to Bobby.

"That's true" Lucas said, "But Granddaddie wanted all of his family involved in the company."

"That's right Lucas, and I think that if we play are cards right, we'll be able to get right in." Bobby dove into the pool. Lucas and Jimmy just looked at each other.
_________________________________________________________________

James walked into his office at Ewing Oil, he had decided that since he did have shares in the company, he should at least see what is going on. James shifted through some papers on his desk, and was about to call his secerctary on the phone when there was a knock on the door.

"Come in," James said, John Ross walked in, and sat down in front of James.

"Can I have a minute?" John Ross, asked.

"Sure, whats on your mind?" James leaned back in his chair and started to listen to John Ross.

"Well, I heard you wanted to stay here for awhile, mostly because you have shares in the company, is that true?" John Ross looked his brother in the eyes.

"yeah, it's true, I thought that maybe I could help out, is that a problem?" James was pretty sure where this was headed.

"No problem, just as long as you remember that you only have 7 shares, and that Christopher and I are the Presidents."

"I think I can remeber that, but you just remember, I helped make Ewing Oil this big, I can help take it down." James looked John Ross right back into the eye. John Ross, gave a small grin, then got up. James watched as John Ross walked out of the office.

Charlie sat out by the Southfork pool, she was thinking about her mother when Lucas walked up to her. "Hey sis, can I sit down?" Charlie looked up,

"Sure," Lucas sat next to his sister.

"Ray told me you were mad at him." Charlie looked at her brother.

"Oh he did?"

"Yeah, he said you haven't talked to him since yesterday at the reunion." Lucas leaned back in the chair. "Well, whats wrong?" Lucas and Charlie used to be pretty close, but recently, they have been drifting away.

"Lucas, I'll tell you, at the same time I tell Ray." Charlie got up and walked into the house. Lucas just watched his sister, wandering what was going on.

"But Dad, that is our legacy, They have Ewing Oil, we have CE." Bobby said.

Betsy agreed with her brother. "Dad, I think that we need to keep EC in our family."

Gary looked at his three children,

"Lucy," Gary said, "What do you think?" Lucy thought for a minute.

"Daddie, they are right, but then again, who will run it?"

Gary agreed with Lucy. "Thats how I feel, so, our agreement will be that, each of us has shares in the company."

"How will J.R. feel about that?" Lucy asked,

"I don't really care how he feels." Gary said. They all laughed and ordered their meals.

Bobby, Betsy and David all walked down the sidewalk talkng about what their father had tolde them.

"Betsy, I think this might be a good time to put pahse one of our plan into action." Bobby looked at his sister.

"I agree, with the merger of CE and of Wentworth Industeirs This might be the best time." Betsy said turning to look at David.

"I still don't think that you should be doing this," David said "It will really mess up things."

"Well, John Ross didn't think about that when he had that false company of his make a bad deal with CE. I'm just keeping our Granddaddies wishes." Bobby said to DAvid.

"I for one think that it's a bad plan. But I'll go with it." Daivd replied.

Bobby and Pam sat in the living room, talking about flight plans, deciding when to leave and go back to Europe. They were alomst ready to go up to bed when they heard some yelling coming from the den. Both Bobby and Pam got up and ran into the den to see what was going on. When they got there, they saw Charlie, and Ray,were at each other throats.

"Charlie, I'm your stepFather now please, tell me what is going on? Why are you not talking to me??!!" Ray was getting really pissed and couldn't figure out what was making Charlie act like she was.

"Fine Ray, you want to know?? Chris and I were in Italy doing research on Fathers family."

"Yes I know that, what does that have to do with anything?" Ray asked?

"Mother, lied to me for years, and you have lied too Ray, and You have lied to Bobby!" Charlie looked Ray in the eye, not backing down at all.

Bobby and Pam looked at each other, not saying anything. Ray looked at Charlie.

"What are you talking about?" Ray was really upset now.

" I found medical records for Naldo, there was no way he was my father, he wasn't able to produce any off spring because of an accident he had when he was small!" Charlie turned and saw Bobby and Pam. Then turned and looked at Ray, Ray wasn't sure what to say or do.

"What do you want me to say Charlie?" Ray asked claimly.

"Admit you lied, and you covered up for mother all those years and tell Bobby who is the REAL father."

Ray walked up to Bobby and Pam.
"Bobby, Charlie is right, Naldo couldn't have any kids. Jenna told me that shortly after we were married."

"If he isn't the father then..."Bobby looked at Pam and then at Charlie.

"She lied about the date on the birth certificate. Bobby, you are Charlies Father......"
