Life, Ewing Style

J.R.'s alarm clock went off at sharply five o'clock. J.R. sat up and looked around. He figured that the voice must just have been a dream. Sue Ellen walked in and gave J.R. a kiss.

"Hello, are you ready for this trip?" Sue Ellen asked?

"Oh, I'll manage." J.R. got up and went into the bath room to take a shower.

"J.R. are you sure you want to go down there? I'm sure that John Ross and Christopher could go."

"What?!" J.R. said from out of the shower. "No way, Ray and I are the ones that should be going, no one else."

Sue Ellen sighed and shrugged her shoulders. She walked out of the room and left J.R. alone. J.R. finished up his shower and as he got out he heard it:

"J.R." it was the same voice. "I'm going to get you" J.R. stopped everryting.

"What are you doing back?" J.R. asked.

"I'm preparing you...see you soon...."

J.R. stopped and stood still for a minute. Nothing was said, He wasn't sure what was going but nothing was going to stop him from getting his daddy back.

Everyone stood around the yard saying good bye to the search party. J.R. hugged each of his children and his grandchildren. Ray and DOnna also made their rounds, saying goodbye. The chopper took off and the rest of the Ewings went back to their daily routine.

Frankie Starr sat on the same bench that he had met Megan on. He was there for abut five minutes when he noticed Megan walking up. Frankie stood up to greet Megan.

"Just sit down Frankie." Megan said as she walked up.

"So you've decided?" Frankie asked.

"Yes, I've decided that you are a creep, how dare you and your father make plans. You don't love me." Megan was really getting upset. "Do you denie it?"

Frankie sat for a minute, looking at the ground. then he looked up to Megan.

"No, it's true, I'm sorry, I really do love you..."

"I don't want to hear it, and I don't want to ever see you again." Megan walked away and left Frankie sitting on the bench, both had tears in their eyses.

The chopper landed on the ground in South America. Mr. Clark walked up to the chopper and held open the door.

"Mr. Ewing?" Clark said as J.R. stepped out.

"Yes, thats me, and this is my wife Sue Ellen, my brother Ray Krebbs, and his wife Donna."

"It's a pleasure to meet you all. Thank you for coming." Clark showed them to his tent.

"When can we go to the site." J.R. asked, very eager.

"I thought I would fill you in first Mr. EWing, let you know excatly what we found."

Clark proceeded to tell the Ewings about how they found the underwater cave and how they discovered it was Jock.

"Well, I think that covers it, shall we go if you could follow in your chopper, it's right over the mountians, on the other said.

The Ewings got into thier chopper and Mr. Clark and his men got into theirs. The choppers took off and started over the mountians. J.R. couldn't wait for it to land. Finally his daddy would have the proper burial. Just as J.R. started to relax he noticed smoke coming from the back of the chopper.

"Hey, Ray" "J.R. spoke into the head set. "Whats that smoke." Ray looked behind the chopper and noticed the smoke also.

"Not sure," Ray said "But, I'll find out." As Ray started to go up and sit next to the pliot, he was knocked back down. They noticed that the chopper was now gong down instead of up.

"Whats going on." Donna said, as she clung onto Ray.

"I don't know, let try and get up to the pliot again." Ray made his way up front and noticed the the pliot was out cold. "Oh, no"

The chopper kept falling, Ray tried to take over the controls, but couldn't, as Ray looked he saw a piece of teh mountian right below them, he tried to swing the chopper out of the way, but the tail end hit it. The chopper went down, and crashed into the swamp below.

SAm Starr was on the phone to Mark Huges tring to find out more about The time Jock had gone down to South America. As Sam hung up the phone. Frankie bursts in.

"Hello Frankie, so when is the little date?" SAm asked with a smile on his face.

"There is no little date. She knows about the little plan." Frankie said getting into his fathers face.

"What, you told her?"

"She alreaddy knew, it was probably the freak you call a partner." Frankie responded. "I'm just here to let you know that I won't be your little helper anymore. I'm out a here." Frankie turned and started out of the office.

"Son, wait." SAm tried to get Frankie to come back, but it didn't work. Frankie walked out of the door and slamed it shut.

J.R. laid on the ground. He couldn't move anything. He couldn't say anything. He tried to open his eyes but he couldn't. He was montionless. His mind raced back to when he and Bobby were in the plane crash in New Orleans. He knew his Daddy would save them, and even though it was Ray who found them, it was hid Daddy who sent Ray out.

"J.R." J.R. heard his name. But he couldn't say anything.

"It's me again." J.R. was finally able to open his eyes. But what he saw was not what he expected. There in front of him was a man he hadn't seen in close to thirty years.

"Adam..."

"See J.R. you do remember." Adam said has he knelt down beside J.R.

"What in the world are you doing here?"

"Well, J.R., I told you there wasn't going to be another chance for my speical offer...so I'm just helping you out." Adam looked at J.R. and grinned.

"What are you talking about?" J.R. was confused.

"You know what I'm talking about...I'll give you sometime alone." Adam dissappeared leaving J.R. alone once again.

John Ross was in his office when his secertary came over the intercom.

"John, you have a call on line one."

John Ross picked up the phone.

"Hello?.........What!?!.......Oh, No......NO.....yes, right away." John Ross hung up the phone and went into James's office.

"James....I just got off the phone with Mr. Clark in South America. Theres been a crash, it's dad's chopper." James looked at John Ross.

What?" but....."

"I'm flying down there...are you coming?" John Ross saod has he walked to the door.

"Of course." James jumped up and the two brothers walked out the door.

J.R. knew he must have been laying still for days. He was cold, but yet, he was hot. He hadn't been able to move for what seemed like days. HE dozed off, then he would come to. He knew he was doomed. Suddenly J.R. saw a bright white light, he looked and saw a figure coming towards him. He wasn't able to open his eyes, but he could see more clearly than ever. As he looked he was sure that he has seen this person before.

"J.R." HE heard anotherr voice but this voice was more hard, more deep. J.R. looked up again. He knew he had seen this man before.

"J.R. GET UP BOY." J.R. couldn't belive his eyes...

"Daddy?" J.R. felt himself standing up. "But you're...."

"J.R., I'm real proud of ya son." It was Jock.

"Daddy, I tried to make Ewing Oil the biggest and best." J.R. said.

"J.R., you did that and more now come on, come with me.." Jock turned and started to walk away. J.R. looked at him.

"But, Daddy, I can't follow you, I have to stay here...." J.R. could now feel his body, but it was a strange feeling, he felt his legs go num. "Daddy, please wait." J.R. could now feel his arms, but like his legs, they went numb. "Daddy, please stay..." J.R. moved his head a little, "Daddy..." J.R. could feel his insides turning...and he felt something that he never had before. Daddy, wait, I'm comong with you." J.R. followed his Daddy, and when he caught up with him, he couldn't belive his eyes. J.R. looked and saw all the Ewingas that had gone before him, and all the Southworths, everyone was there looking at him. and then JR saw her...his momma. Ellie gave J.R. a hug. J.R. could no longer feel his numb body. He could no longer move. "Momma, oh how I missed you, you both." J.R. felt another feeling, this time in his chest. This time it was his heart.

"J.R." Miss Ellie grabbed his hand. As J.R's heart stopped. Miss Ellie looked at him and said. " Welcome home son.
