"Is he okay?" Chip asks as the group is gathered around an unconscious Krypto.
"Looks like he's still breathing." PB says.
"Are you sure he wasn't dead alexis when you were tending to his injuries?" Ace asks as Alexis looks at him.
"I'm positive. He's waking up now." Alexis says as Krypto wakes up.
"So what uh, what is this place anyway? Is this some type of fancy DMV?" Ace asks as he looks at the building nearby.
"Are you kidding? It's the Hall of Justice. This is where the Justice League hangs out. I bet they're all super tight buds and they like try on each other's clothes and then they eat like really fun snacks and then they probably just tell each other everything." PB says.
"Yeah. Everything." Krypto says as he walks off before Alexis begins to walk off.
"Where you going Alexis?" Ace asks.
"Away from that mutt. I've had enough of him for one day." Alexis says as she runs off.
*Timeskip*
"Hey. Here you are." A voice says revealing to be Krypto as he finds Alexis sitting beside a tree.
"Leave me alone Kyrpto." Alexis says annoyedly.
"Look I'm sorry I was so rude earlier. I was not helping the situation." Krypto says.
"You think." Alexis says annoyedly as Krypto sighs.
"I just want my boy back. He's all I have." Krypto says.
"Well I guess I can understand that. Don't like how you went about it but I get that. Ace is everything to me. Especially since we were pups." Alexis says as she chuckles slightly.
"Alexis why is it you hate humans so much?" Krypto asks a she sits beside Alexis.
"Why do you care?" Alexis asks annoyedly.
"I just would like to know. You seem to hate humans a lot." Krypto says.
"You're somebody's beloved pet. You wouldn't understand." Alexis says.
"Try me." Krypto says as Alexis sighs.
"Follow me." Alexis says as Krypto follows her.
*Timeskip*
"Uh where are we?" Krypto asks as Alexis brings him to the remains of a burned down house.
"You're looking at my old home. My humans old home. It burned down one year after I been found by my owner. She took me in when I lost my pack as a cub." Alexis says.
"What happened?" Krypto asks curiously as he looks at Alexis.
"I didn't always hate and distrust humans so much Krypto. In fact I had an owner like you and Ace did." Alexis says.
"Did?" Krypto asks.
"It wasn't always fun for me. Like you I lost my human when I couldn't protect her. She was the sweetest person you'd ever meet. I was unable to protect her in a fire that our neighbors had started." Alexis says as she looks down sadly.
"How do you know it was them?" Krypto asks.
"They hate dogs Krypto. Especially me. I had tried everything to pull my owner out of that house when it went up in flames. I was able to get her to the door but before I could pull her out she died and that's when the police and fireman came in and took us both outside. I was standing with my owner not realizing she was dead yet. I was nudging her hand to no avail." Alexis says sadly.
"And the neighbors?" Krypto asks curiously.
"They blamed it all on me. They claimed I had attacked my owner and proved it by showing the marks I left by accident when I was trying to save my owner. And then they claimed I started the fire when they found a cord that started the flames. But it wasn't me. The neighbors broke in a that morning while my owner and I were gone and messed with that wire. I know because I found when we got home. But my owner didn't listen and neither did the police because next thing I knew I was in one of those catching poles. I tried to break loose but I couldn't and they dragged me away while I was screaming to stay by my owner's side when I realized she died from the smoke and flames." Alexis says sadly.
"But that wasn't your fault. You didn't deserve that." Krypto says.
"No but that's how they saw it. I learned that day that if all a wolf was to be seen as aggressive and untrustworthy as a pet then I figured there was no point in trusting any other humans after that. But I still love my owner even if she is gone." Alexis says.
"Is that how you and Ace met?" Krypto asks as Alexis nods.
"Yep. We spent a year in the shelter together and became close as siblings because of it. Then I busted out. Never looked back only to help my friends and brother." Alexis says.
"I'm sorry Alexis but not all humans are like that." Krypto says as he puts his paw on Alexis's only for her to take her paw away.
"No but they can't be trusted." Alexis says as she notices a woman with her little boy and smiles seeing the little boy happy.
"You do like humans don't you?" Krypto asks as Alexis blushes.
"No. I just... Oh okay fine. I do but what human would want me for a pet Krypto?" Alexis asks as she sighs.
"Mine would." Krypto says as he smiles.
"Yeah. Right. But if I had to relive that day I'd do it again if it meant being with Sandy one more time and trying to protect her. When you love someone you do anything to protect them." Alexis says.
"You sound just like Ace." Krypto says.
"Maybe. How did you find me anyway?" Alexis asks curiously.
"I sniffed you out. Wasn't pleasant but I did it." Krypto says as Alexis chuckles.
"You know you're okay. For a pampered pooch." Alexis says as she smiles at Krypto earning a smile back from him.
