"Oh boy. I don't see 'em. And this neighborhood makes me real nervous." Stokey says as the group is walking.
"Yeah I think we'II head home. Too many humans here." Riley says.
"But Riley we haven't found their friend yet." Spike says.
"Yes. You did say it yourself that the streets were no place for pets." Alexis says.
"I won't leave Chance out there." Shadow says determinedly.
"Oh yeah? Well I can't have my whole gang out here lookin for one dog." Riley says.
"But what my Delilah? She's out there too." Bando says.
"Do you think Delilah's found him?" Shadow asks.
"What if she didn't find him? Or worse what if she did? Oh no!" Bando says worriedly.
"Don't worry Shadow. Delilah can find him." Alexis says.
*Timeskip*
"Uh-oh guys. check it out. It's the blood-red van!" Spike says as everyone sees the red van and hides.
"Hide! Oh man! I knew we shouldn't have been out here." Riley says angrily.
"Sassy, Shadow under here quickly!" Alexis says as Shadow and Sassy join her and Riley in their hiding spot.
"Oh man I hate this. Hidin' some car like a- like a cat." Riley says.
"I heard that." Sassy says annoyedly.
"Oh boy. That was c-c-c-close." Stokey says as the van leaves.
"Why are we hiding? What do they want?" Shadow asks.
"They want you pet. those humans will snatch any dog off the street. And once they take you ya never come back. Word is they sell ya to a place called the lab. And that sounds bad." Riley says.
"What's so bad a lab that dogs away?" Sassy asks.
"Hey! All clear y'all" Riley says before everyone comes out of hiding.
"Riley you know a lot about this city. We need to cross a golden bridge. Do you know where that is?" Shadow asks.
"Yeah I know where it is but I ain't goin' there. See a bridge means cars and cars mean the man and we don't like the man." Riley says.
"Hear that Sassy? Guess we'II have to find that bridge on our own." Shadow says.
"Why? To get back to your humans? Face it. They don't want you." Riley says harshly as Alexis looks at him.
"You're wrong. They do want us." Shadow says.
"Come on, Shadow. Let's get out of here." Sassy says.
"Riley thanks for everything." Shadow says as he leaves with Sassy.
"Yo Alexis where you going?" Riley asks as he notices Alexis beginning to follow.
"I wanna help them Riley. Even if you don't want to take them to the bridge I at least wanna see they get to it okay. I don't know the way as well as you but standing aside and doing nothing out of fear has never really been much for me." Alexis says.
"You do remember the last time you trusted and took interest in a pet right? They hurt you and nearly got you taken by the man." Riley says.
"I know... but Shadow and Sassy need the help. I'm going even if it's alone. I'll be back as soon as I can." Alexis says as she runs off.
