You just never seem to talk to me. 

Blake: Well I guess I just get nerves. But I had some good advice. 

Claire: From your mom?

Blake: Not quiet.  

Claire: Then what made you come here? 

Blake: Can show her? 

Balto: Yes.

Claire: Who are you talking to?  

Blake: This is Balto. 

Just then a huge light coverd the whole room. The light fades away and Balto appears right in front of Claire. 

Claire: Whoa! Is that Balto? 

Blake: How did you know? 

Claire: Our teacher e-mailed me our assiment.

Blake: Wait the assisment then how did... Balto!!

Balto laughs. 

Claire: I guess that he is a spirit guide now. It's a honor to meet a great hero.

Balto: It's nice to see a fan. 

Blake: You know about them?

Claire: Yes.

Blake: You are smart.

Balto nudges Blake's leg.

Blake: Ok. Look Claire I was wondering if you would lie to go out sometime?

Claire: I'd loved to.

Blake: Great. How about tommorow night?

Claire: Sure.

Blake: I'll pick you up then.

Blake and Balto walk down the street back to Blake's place.

Balto: You have no idea what to do?

Blake: Damn strait. I know where I should take her but I want to show her how much I care for her.

Balto: I have an idea.

Blake: Ok I'll listen to anything right now.

Balto: All I need is a lantern and a bunch of diffrent colored broken bottles.

The next night Blake is walking down the street holding Claire's hand. They eat dinner and walk for a little while longer. But just as they pass an alley, Blake is pulled away. He is beaten up by none other than Marcus. Blake shoves Marcus away.

Blake: Now what do you want?

Marcus: Her. If I cant have her then no one can.

Blake: Clair! call the cops.

Claire reaches gets on her phone. Marcus throws another punch at Blake but he dodges it and hits Marcus in the stomach. Marcus tries to hit Blake again but he gets out of the way and Maucus fist hits the wall. Marcus hits the wall hard enough for his hand to almost break. Blake looks at Claire but is shoved into a wall. On the ground, Blake sees Marcus rasies his foot and is about to crush his face. Just then Balto leaps on to Marucs and pushes him away. Marcus backs up to a wall and sees Balto.

Marcus: Who are you?

Balto: The protecter of this boy so stay away from him.

The look in Balto's eyes turns demon like and strikes Marcus in fear.

Balto: Blake, take Claire and show it to her.

Blake: Lets go. 

Clarie and Blake leave just as the police arrive. They do not see Balto and arrest Marcus.

Claire: You ok?

Blake: Better.

Claire: So what did you want to show me? 

Blake: Come.

They go to the roof of Blake's building. Blake holds up a bag of broken bottles.

Blake: What do you see?

Claire: A bunch of broken bottles?

Blake: Nope.

He sets them up on a box on the edge of the building.

Blake: The polar ice capes.

Claire: What?

Balke goes over to a lantern.

Blake: The sun.

He is about to turn it on.

Blake: And to the north.

He turns the lantern on and the light reflects on the bottles and show the northen lights.

Claire: Oh my god! It's beautiful.

Blake: Yeah,...beautiful.

They look at eachother and move there lips closer and closer. Just then..

Voice: Ahem.

They look of the roof and see Balto standing in the air in front of the northern lights.

Blake: How do you do that?

Balto: I just can.

Claire: Thanks for saving us Balto.

Balto: Yoyr welcome.

Blake: Why are you here?

Balto: It's time for me to go, my time here is done.

Blake: Are you sure?

Balto: Yes. But before I go, I have a promise to keep to you.

Everything falls quiet and a small wind pass by them.

Balto: Jenna, Stark, Kodi, Aleu, Hunter, Dingo, Aleu come.

Out of the lights appear all of Balto's family smileing at them.

Claire: Wow. Amazing family.

Jenna nuzzels Balto.

Balto: You got that Claire.

Blake: Will we ever see you guys again?

Balto: When ever you need me our any of us just call us and we will be right in front of you. But before we go.. Sara hit it!

Sara: Got it dad!

She goes on the roof and pulls out a ihome. She turns it on and Paradise City plays. They all start dancing to the beat and the singing stars.

Balto: Take me down to the paradise city
Where the grass is green
And the girls are pretty
Take me home

Aleu:(Oh, won't you please take me home)

Kodi: Just an urchin livin' under the street
I'm a hard case that's tough to beat
I'm your charity case
So by me somethin' to eat
I'll pay you at another time
Take it to the end of the line

Jenna: Rags to riches
Or so they say
You gotta
Keep pushin' for the fortune and fame
You know it's, it's all a gamble
When it's just a game
You treat it like a capitol crime
Everybody' doin' their time

Stark, Dingo and Sara: Take me down to the Paradise City where the grass is green and the girls are pretty.

Aleu: Oh won't please take me home

Stark, DIngo, and Sara: Take me down to the Paradise City where the grass is green and the girls are pretty.

Aleu: Oh won't please take me home

Hunter: Strapped in the chair of the city's gas chamber
Why I'm here, I can't quite remember
The surgoen general say's it's hazardous to breathe
I'd have another cigarette
But I can't see
Tell me that you're gonna believe

Stark, Dingo and Sara: Take me down to the Paradise City where the grass is green and the girls are pretty.

Aleu: Oh won't please take me home

Stark, DIngo, and Sara: Take me down to the Paradise City where the grass is green and the girls are pretty.

Aleu: Oh won't please take me home

Jenna: So far away x4

Balto: Capitain America's been torn apart
Now he's a court jester
With a broken heart
He said turn me around
And take me back to the start
I must be losing my mind
"Are you blind?!"
I've seen it all a mllion times

Stark, Dingo and Sara: Take me down to the Paradise City where the grass is green and the girls are pretty.

Aleu: Oh won't please take me home

Stark, DIngo, and Sara: Take me down to the Paradise City where the grass is green and the girls are pretty.

Aleu: Oh won't please take me home
 

All: I want to go
I want to know
Oh, won't you please take me home

I want to see
Oh, look at me
Oh, won't you please take me home

Take me down to the paradise city
Where the grass is green
And the girls are pretty
Take me home (Oh, won't you please take me home)

Take me down to the paradise city
Where the grass is green
And the girls are pretty
Oh, won't you please take me home

Take me down
Oh yeah
Beat me down
Oh, won't you please take me home

I want to see
Oh, look at me
Oh, won't you please take me home

I want to see
Boy, I'm gonna be mean
Oh, oh take me home

Take me down to the paradise city
Where the grass is green
And the girls are pretty
Oh, won't you please take me home

I want to go
I want to know
Oh, won't you please take me hooooooome

The song ends and Blake and Claire clap. Balto's family start to walk towards the northern lights and they turn back. Balto and his family take deep breaths and howl like they never howled before.

Blake: Thank you Balto.

Claire: We would have been lost with out you. 

Blake and Claire share a passionite kiss and look at Balto and the others who are looking at them. Balto and the other slowly walk away into the northen lights and dissapear. The lights fade out.

Claire: So now what?

Blake smiles.

Teacher: Ok so who thought up a good saying about what we talked about yesterday? 

Blake and Claire raises there hands.

Teacher: Ok you two go ahead.

Blake: We thought about this for a while and this is what we came up with.

Claire: Heros are rememberd and there legends never die.

Blake: And when the hero is gone and we remember the hero.

Claire: There right next to us.

Blake: Guideing us througth the darkness that is life.

Claire: Thank you.

The whole class claps to this.

Teacher: Very good. That could be in the books some day.

Later Blake and Claire are walking out if the school and appearing right before them is Balto and all of his family. Not a word is said. Claire and Blake smile and walk down the street with Balto and the others at there side.
