closes her eyes. At that second something jumps over from the other side of the fence. Dusty opens her eyes and sees a husky standing in the other two's way. The husky growls at them. The two dogs try to attack but they were not match for this husky. They run away. The husky runs after them to make sure they dont come back. Dusty crawls out of the shadow and sees the husky come up to her. Dusty gets a better look at him. He looks around her age, a bit taller than Kodi, quite muscular for a dog, his fur is black and white like Steele. But it's not Steele. This husky is more handsome and kinder looking than Steele. She takes one step back, thinking he could try and attack her like those other two.

Husky: You ok?

Dusty: Yes.

Husky: Whew. That's good. Those two would have killed you.

Dusty: Thanks for the help.

Dusty walks past him.

Husky: Hey wait!?

Dusty look back to him.

Dusty: Yes.

Husky: Where you going?

Dusty: Home. If I can find it.

Husky: You lost?

Dusty: Yeah.

Husky: Well then allow me to introduce myself. My name is Jesse and I am here to help.

Dusty: Well... Jesse. I dont think you can help me. I;m not where I'm supposed to be.

Jesse: Where are you supposed to be?

Dusty: Nome, Alaska.

Jesse: What!!? How did that happen?

Dusty: I dont even know. But I need to get home now.

Jesse: Why?

Dusty: Cause my husband and I are supposed to be helping out pups find homes.

Jesse: Husband? Oh man.

Dusty chuckles.

Dusty: Sorry sport. I'm taken.

Much to her shock Jesse sighs and smiles at her.

Jesse: Well then... if you need help...follow me.

Dusty follows Jesse through a few other alleys and across some busy streets. They reach an old abandond buliding and walk along the alley next to it. There is a door that leads to a basement.

Dusty: What is place?

Jesse: You'll see.

Jesse bangs his paw on the door. A dog opens it and lets Jesse in. Dusty tries to follow but the dog stops her.

Jesse: It's ok. She with me.

The dog lets her pass. They walk into a basement and see hundreds of dogs all over the place. Some are laughing, sleeping, talking, and a bunch of other things.

Dusty: Wow. What is this place?

Jesse: My home. If that's what you can call it. I lived on the streets my whole life. But then they found me and kindly took me in. I rose up in the ranks and now...I'm living large. But I still enjoy going around the city looking for dogs that need help. We take good care of them. They can eather live here or go back. Its there choice.

Dusty: Whos this we?

Jesse: Oh I forgot. You wanna know who we are?

Dusty: Yes.

Jesse: Ok then.

He looks over to a dog near a large radio.

Jesse: Sixx!! Hit ti.

Dusty looks over and sees a small dog with really long blond hair. Sixx press a button on the radio and music starts to play.

(Before going on, you need to know who these dogs are. Copy and paste this link and it'll take you to the song that they play. During this whole time, Dusty is amazed at the song. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d94jRFdFbKs. Also just to tell you what your gonna listen to it's rock and roll and this song was made by one of the best heavy metal bands. Enjoy)

Nome

Kodi is with Willow and Hunter. They are taking Jinx to the boiler room. They set her down in front of the furnace. They bring a blanket in and put it over her.

Jinx: Thanks.

Kodi: Dont mention it.

They sit for a while and not to long later Luna comes back with Dingo, Mila, Stark, Jim, and Sara.

Sara: Dusty!

Jinx, in a litte fear takes a few steps back.

Sara: It's okay. It's me, Sara.

Jinx: I dont know any Sara. I dont know any of you!!

Stark: Ok, ok. Calm down.

JInx sits down and gets under the blanket.

Dingo: Would you like us to let you rest for a while?

Jinx: Yes.

They all leave and close the door behind them. The group gather around.

Kodi: What do think happend?

Willow: She said she hit her head.

Sara: It's to be amnesia.

Mila: What's that?

Sara: If you hit your head hard enough and on the right spot you call loose you memory of everthing and everyone.

Kodi: What!? How long can this last?

Sara: I dont know. But there is a way we can help her.

Stark: If it's for Dusty, i'm not sleeping until we get back to normal.

Hunter: I'd like to you try.

Luna: Not now you two.

Dingo: So how can we help her?

Sara: There is one way.

Jim: We'll try anything.

Sara: If we can show here some of the things we do with her and share some memories, it could cause her to remeber.

Jim: Thats a good idea.

The others nod in agreement. All but Kodi.

Willow: You ok Kodi.

Kodi doesnt say a word.

Hunter: Kodi were gonna get through this.

Kodi: Yeah we are. So what should we do first?

Luna: Dusty's owners got a bunch of pictures of her. Maybe that can help.

Dingo: That's a good idea.

Kodi: I'll show them to her. I'm maybe the best dog to get Dusty to remember everything

 Mila: What about Amber and Alastair? There gonna wonder where there mother is?

There is a moment or two of silence.

Stark: I got an idea.

Later....

Ralph: No way!

Kodi: It's just for a bit.

Ralph: Me and kids do not mix.

Kodi: Iv'e never asked you for anything. I really need you help.

Ralph: Why? Whats going on?

Kodi: Dusty's lost her memory.

Ralph: What?

Kodi: We need to get back to normal. And we someone to watch Amber and Alastair.

Ralph: Kodi look you and I have....

Kodi: You love her to, I know. You can be mad at me. But Dusty chose who she loved. So accept that. I'm here as a friend. Please.

Ralph: Fine. I'll do it for her.

Kodi: Thanks. Kids, come in!

Kodi walks out as Amber and Alastair come in. Kodi pops his head back in.

Kodi: Oh yeah. Watch it, there teething.

Ralph: What!!?

Kodi leaves laughing. He passes by Dusty's house. He walks in a grabs a few pictures of her. Some photos are old and some are more recent.

Kodi: God I hope this works.

He blots out of the house and head to the boiler room.

Los Angeles

Dusty: The saints of Los Angeles, huh?

Jeese: You bet.

Dusty: So how can you help me?

Jesse: We dogs are more capable of what humans think we are.

Dusty: I know that all to well.

Jeese: Ok. The secruety dogs the airport are clients of ours. They give us food and supplies from shipping planes in all that crap. And they get as many bones as they want.

Dusty: And you think they can me on a plane to Nome.

Jesse: I should, yeah. They airport dogs need a little reasoning but if they here your story, they'll help.

Dusty: Should we go talk to them?

Jesse: No need. Theres a radio that we can contanct them with.

Dusty: Cool.

Jesse: Go rest in my room and I'll take care of it.

Dusty: All right. Where is your room.

Jesse: Go up those stairs behind you and keep going until you get to the seventh floor.

Dusty: Got it!

They walk there seperate ways. Jeese does what he promised Dusty and gets on the radio. He tells the dogs at the airport her stroy. They say yes and will find a plane that is headed for Nome. Jesse swaers to himself that he could have herd some crying on the other end of the talk while he was telling them about Dusty. Dusty walks up to the seveth floor of the ten story buliding. It is one huge room that covers the whole floor. When she enters it there are many... items ( thats the best way I can put it) everywhere. Well drawn paintings, old looking weapons (like a collection), and various other things.

Dusty: Wow!

She on to a bed and looks out the window that the bed is leaned up to. She gets a full veiw of the city. She is amazed on how big it is. The bulidings are taller than anything Dusty has ever seen.

Voice: You like it?

Dusty looks back and sees Jesse.

Dusty: It's great veiw.

Jesse: Yeah. This is my city.

Dusty: It's way bigger than Nome.

Jesse: Whats it like in Nome?

Dusty sits down on the edge of the bed and Jesse sits down on the floor.

Dusty: It's small, cold, wild, but yet.., its all I need.

Jesse: How so?

Dusty: Kodi. He's my mate for life.

Jesse: Kodi!?

Dusty: What? Did I say something?

Jesse: I know that name. Hold on!

Jesse gets up runs to a wall not to far from the bed. Dusty sees him searching through a bunch of newspapers on the floor. He picks one up and brings it up to Dusty. On the paper is a Artice that is titled " Balto the hero of Nome does it again" She sees a picture of Duke the pilot Balto saved, Balto and Kodi.

Jesse: Is that Kodi?

Dusty: Yeah thats him.

Jesse: You must love him alot.

Dusty: YOu have no idea.

Jesse: You said you had pups with him right?

Dusty: Yeah. Amber and Alastair.

Jesse: Dont worry. The airport dogs said yes. It'll take a few hours for them to find something. Why dont you get some rest.

Dusty: Good Idea. I'll sleep on the floor.

Jesse: No way! You can have my bed.

Dusty: Thanks for all this kindness.

Jesse: Since your related to Balto...you have my upmost respect.

Dusty: You about Balto?

Jesse: I herd about what happend in 1925. Balto showed me that we all have an inner strength that comes to us when we need it.

Dusty: Really?

Jesse: Alot of the saints keep going cause of Balto. Since he helped out Nome... we what we can here.

Dusty: Wow. Have you found yours?

Jesse: Not yet. But... who knows. Anyway get some rest.

Dusty: Ok.

Jesse gets up and walks out of the room. Dusty esaliy falls asleep.

Nome

Kodi walks into the boiler room, just as Jinx wakes up.

Kodi: Did that nap help you any?

Jinx: Not really...Kodi right?

Kodi: Yes. And your name?

Jinx: I still dont think I'm this Dusty you all say I am.

Kodi: I thought you might say that. So I brought you a few things that may help you.

Jinx: Like what?

Kodi lays out a few pictures that he brought from Dusty's house. Jinx looks at a few of them. She sees a picture of Dusty on the day she was adopted.

Jinx: Is this me?

Kodi: Yes. The day you found a home.

Jinx glances away and closes her eyes. At that moment, memory passes through her head. She sees herself in a box on a street. A girl comes up and pick Jinx up.
