Duke: Okey, so, um, How do I look?

Stella: You look great.

Duke: *sniffs* How do I smell?

Max: Like a dog, Duke. Relax, man

Stella: Yeah, don't worry, you'll do great.

Duke gives a shy grin with Stella's encouraging words. Then they step outside a yellow house where it supposed to be Duke's house

Duke: *gasp* There it is.

Max: Well, go on up. Go scratch that door.

With a hesitant expression, Duke stands on the drive way

Duke: Remember the sausage factory? That was fun, huh?

Stella: Duke, of course I remember, that was literally an hour ago.

Max: *talking to Duke* Are you stalling?

Duke: No. Why do you think that? Let's have a long talk about why you two thinking I'm stalling.

Max: Duke, you have nothing to be nervous about. Your owner is going to be thrill to see you.

Stella: Yeah, and if anything happens, we will be with you no matter what, promise.

Duke: *in his mind* Her words are so touching, I like that about her. Well then here we go. *Back to reality* Okey.

She gave him a confident nod and Duke slowly walks to the house trying to remember the place where he spent time with his owner. While Duke wanders around,  Stella's smile began to fade away, Max saw that face and asked her.

Max: What's wrong Stella?

Stella: *sighs* I hope our plan works Max, because if he might find out that his owner or doesn't love him anymore or probably gone, he'll be heartbroken.

Max: Stella don't be so negative, our plan will totally work. Trust me.

Stella: I do trust you, It's just that, I don't want to se him upset.

The two dogs behind decided to follow him, Duke is still wandering around.

Duke: Huh, that car is new.

While Duke was wandering the porch, when a blue eye cat looks out from a decorative pot

Cat: *Hisses* Can I help you

Duke:  AHH!! *pants*

The Cat swing of to the porch.

Duke: No. We're good, thanks.

Cat: Your not good. Yo look dirty. And I'm gonna have to ask you to get of my lawn before I get, um, you know, what you have.

Stella: *In her mind* Excuse me?!

Duke: This is my lawn.

Max: Duke, maybe we should go.

Stella: *In her mind* *worried* Uh-oh, its happening, its happening.

Duke: And why, why would Fred get a cat? He hates cats. That's one of the things I love about him.

Cat: Fred? The old guy? He, um... He died.

Duke, Max and Stella: *gasp softly*

Stella: Duke, Im really sorry about your loss.

Max: Yeah, maybe I made a mistake saying we should come here. L-Let's... let's go.

Duke: *taking to the cat* Your a liar. Guys, cats lie all the time. Don't fall for it.

Stella: Duke, what are you doing, we gotta go.

They spot a blue car pointing into a drive way. A family formed by two parents and a kid get off the car.

Duke: Who are they? *barks* Hey this is my home. Go away!

Stella: Duke, what gone into you?!

The family gets back in the car scared by Duke while the father dials a call. Stella noticed he is calling the Animal Control so she got more worried.

Max: Duke,  it's- it's time to go.

Duke is still barking and Stella was still worried until she snapped out and said.

Stella: Duke, let's go, come on! This isn't your home anymore.

Duke: Why did you bring me here?

Stella: Wait a minute. This is my fault? It was Max's idea, not mine.

Max: But you will still into it though.

Stella: I never as greeted to your plan, Max. I was just following you lead. And we were trying to help you Duke.

Duke: *looking at Max* You were trying to get rid of me! *looking at Stella* And you, I thought you made a promise. But turns I made a mistake, your are  just a liar as well as other street animals.

Stella: *angry, frustrated, whatever you want to call it* Liar? LIAR?! I AM NOT A LIAR, YOU KNOW,  HARDLY ANYBODY TRUST ME BECAUSE THEY DONT KNOW MY TRUTH, AND WHAT EVERYBODY HERE DOSENT KNOW IS THAT MY OWNER LEFT AND ABANDON ME. AND YOU HEARTLESS DOMESTICS DONT KNOW WHAT IT FEELS LIKE TO BE ABANDONED, DON'T YOU?!

(A/N: Ouch Stella! Ouch!)

The male dogs were speechless, she never told Duke how her owner left, Max never knew how she disappeared, he never imagined that his best friend was abandoned and never seen again. Stella after she said those words to Duke, her anger and frustration turned to a guilty face, one tear was about to get out of her blue eye but she avoided it.

Max: Wait, you were abandoned?!

Stella: *softly, upset* Yes, I was.

Duke: I'm sorry, Stella, we never knew such tragedy you been trough.

Stella: *angry* First you were angry with me and now you're sorry. You're such a hypocrite.

Duke: Stella I-

Stella: You know what? I'm leaving, Im done with his conversation and what was I'm thinking the time I met someone like you, well, goodbye.

(A/N: Again. Ouch!)

And she left, Duke suddenly felt upset about Stella, even tho she said those words to him. He still felt sorry about her, he knew that she doesn't deserve to be treated like this, she just wanted a home, and have someone who can trust her. But his discussion was not over. Max was heading to find Stella until...

Duke: HEY! We're not done yet, you-

Max: You know what, Duke? I don't need this either because you hurt my best friend's feeling and that was so wrong. Now, If you excuse me,  I'll go find her.

Max was heading off to find her until he hears a voice

Stella: *from afar* LET ME GO. HELP!! *Barks*
