worry. This whole plan will be quick and easy. No messes hopfully." said Kodi.

"Murder? They are trying to kill me! No.....no they wouldn't." He thought runing back to the house.  

 

 

Balto snuck in though the window and went to bed. Five minates went by then Balto heard Jenna go through the doggie door. 

She moved slowly in the bed next to Balto.

She looked to see if he was sleeping.

Balto's eyes were closed and pretend to breath slowly.

She sighed in relief as she went to sleep.

 "Jenna is going to kill me?" was the question that haunted him all night.

 

 

 The morning was bright as the beams of the sun went through the window to the bed.

Jenna streach as Balto started to wake up too.

"Oh No! I FORGOT ALL ABOUT IT!!!" It was Rosey.

Jenna had a panicked look on her face just like Rosey but as usual Balto was clueless.

 

She rose and ran to her closet then stopped in her tracks.

"Balto! Why don't you get some fresh air huh boy?" she said pushing him out. The door closed behind him.

Balto just stood on the porch dumbfounded.

He just sighed and walked off.

 

 

He felt confused so he figured he could talk to boris about it.

He searched the boat when he got there but there was no one there. Not even Muk and Luk was there. 

"Hmm? Ok this is serious! Muk and Luk never go from the boat  unless there playing in the ocean or forest. Its too warm for them in the ocean and they haven't been to the forest since Aleu......."  Balto didn't want to rememmber the pain of losing his daughter.

 After that He looked in town see if anyone was available to talk. 

All of the dogs were gone!

No one was in sight. 

He went back to Rosey's. He was about to go in to until something caught his eye.

The trash can was knocked down.

It had his eating bowl with his name on it,  and his leash, and his collar, and even his bed.

He couldn't believe his eyes. "No....Its true. They all want to get rid of me." 

His heart broke to tiny little peices. 

"My mate..... my friends...... even my own pups want me gone.......Well if they want me gone that's fine! But they won't have to kill me." Balto said runing off to town.

 

 

 

A hour later Jenna went to Rosey's.

"Everything is ready. I can't for Balto to see this!" Jenna said excited.

She scratched at the door.

"Jenna? There you are!" Rosey said smiling.

"I guess its time. You might need to find Balto  because I think he walked off today to town. His present from me is on the new bed. I'm sorry I had to work on his big night but my boss is a total jerk. Bye now!" she explained.

"In town? Maybe he's with Duke." Jenna thought as she went to town. 

 

 

 Duke was leaving his house. "Huh I wonder were Balto is? Haven't seen him for awhile. Must be with his family." Duke thought out loud.

Unknown to him Jenna was near the house as Duke went out.

"Balto isn't here then where-"

"Jenna! Jenna over here!" a voice called out.

 "Balto?" she hoped as she turned.

But it was Doc.

"Jenna you look sad. Is something wrong?" Doc asked.

"I'm looking for Balto. Have you seen him? We made a surprise party for him." Jenna said to him.

"Hmmm......Yes. I rememmber he came to me today." Doc said.

"When?" She asked hopeful.

"About an hour ago. he left this and asked me to give it to me and left. He didn't say where he would go." Doc explained to her giving her the note. ( Don't ask about how they can read and write.)

"I hope everything is ok Jenna. Good bye." he said leaving. 

 She opened and read the note.

Her eyes became watery and full o f saddness

"Oh no!" was all she could say.

 She ran with the note in her mouth to the werehouse outside of town.

 

 

She burst in the door.

Everyone burst out then said "HAPPY BIRTHDAY BALT-"

"Mom? Where's dad? " Kodi asked.

"Surprise!" Aleu bursted out of the box.

"What? Too soon?" she asked.

Jenna didn't say a word.

She only dropped the note that Doc gave her.

They all came around to read it.

 

"Who ever it concerns.

If you are reasing this I'm gone.

If no of you wanted me around you could've told me.

Even though you want me out I will still love all of you until the day I die. 

I will run untill I find a new home.

I Will love the days I had in Nome.

My famliy, my friends this goodbye

Farewell.

You will never see me again.

Balto. 

 

 

 

 Balto was miles away from Nome.

Tears was still fresh in his eyes.

He was leaving the true home he ever wanted.

He stop then stood to see the city of Nome.

"Goodbye Nome." he said runinng the other direction.

He ran and ran and ran for days and nights.

It  until he passed a sighn said "White montain 5 miles"

"My new home" he thought as he entered the sparkling city.

 

 

His belly growled. "Well some food could help."

He looked around the alley's trash cans like before he became a hero.

He tried to avoid people so they wouldn't attempt to shoot him.

Then he heard a crash behind him.

He looked to see another dog looking for food too.

"Hopefully  this guy is friendly." Balto  thought

"Hi! My name's Balto. I'm kind of new here and I was wondering if we could be-"

POW!

Balto was pinned down hard.

"Now I'll get what I truly want!" The dog barked.

"What are talking about?" Balto asked.

But after Balto got a good look at him he realized what he meant.

 

It was Steele!!
