Chapter 1.

The Storm

       Aleu could hear the rain hitting the outside of her den. The thunder was cracking outside and the lightining was flashing like a light bulb that was about to go out and was trying to stay alive. She knew her family and friends were safe from it. Her dad on his boat with Bories and her mom at her owners house keeping her safe. Aleu knew that her friend Dusty was with her little  siblings who she rescued in Dusty's adventure even they were still pups they were suposed to be her age, but it was hard to explain at the moment. Aleu knew her brother Kodi was beside Dusty an her polar bear friends Muk and Luk had found somewhere to hide from the rain.. Aleu's pack was safe and she knew Nava was doing fine in his den. He didn't lead anymore because of his age, but still lived with then and helped out Aleu. She moved a little to be in a better posistion. Aleu fell back asleep quickly, but didn't know what was about to happen. Aleu didn't know what kind of fate was coming for her and she didn't know that is wouls happen soon. 

  Meanwhile outside the storm was raging, but up in the sky a circle of dark black cloud was forming. Lightining was inside and it striking at something in the cloud. The lightining struck it again and the object fell out of the cloud. It was flying towards the ground and finally struck it. Since it had fallen so far from the sky it made a hole under it, but it wasn't very deep. The object sparkled in the lightining as it struck the ground around the object. The rain ran down the side of the object. This was what would start Aleu's journey....something that was shiny and rare that would change everything.

      Nava's elderly eyes eye flew open to the sound of the storm ,   but he smelled something too. It smelled terrible, like..well som,ething that he didn't want to decribe. Nava had never smelt this kind of thing before and he didn't want to  . He had a dark felling about what the smell was coming from. It didn't smell like what he had wanted it to smell like.

       Nava pushed his old body outside of the cave and looked up. He blinked from time to time as the rain was blinding him. Nava looked up. "Aniu is it?" He asked looking uo at the sky The stars formed into the shape of a wolf with diamond shaped eyes. The stars nodded to Nava and then returned back to their places in the sky. "I'll go get it in the morning." Nava said

     Aleu had woken up again when she wanted to get her sleep. She looked up to see Nava outside at the edge of her camp. Aleu once again got up from the dust to see why Nava was up. The ground was covered in water that cause it to become sticky mud. Aleu had walked over to Nava's side and was wipeing pf the mud from her light brown furred paws. "Nava what are you doing up?" Aleu said

      "I would be asking you the same Aleu." Nava replied Aleu was surprised. "Aleu do you smell something?" asked Nava Aleu lifted her black nose into the air and sniffed. She didn't know what she was looking for at first, but then a warm smell hit her nose. "Does it smell good." Nava asked Aleu Aleu sniffed more. Sniff Sniff "  It does." Aleu replied The sent was warm and smelt so wonderful. Like flowers in a pastwer that had just blossomed to life with the warm sun beating down on them. It was heavenly to Aleu. Nava looked up at the sky. He had a feeling that she wound smell something. Aleu's eyes opened again. "Wow." She replied "We should both get back to sleep." said Nava as he turned to walked away. Aleu's fur was nothing, but wetness. Aleu went back to her den and fell asleep.

     The light of the sun flew in the den onto Aleu's face and that made Aleu open her her blue diamond shaped eyes. She looked up outside the her den. Aleu got up from the ground and placed one paw in front other. She walked outside of her den and felt the rain drops on the grass fall onto her paws and sink into her fur. Aleu looked up at the sun light and could here the wolves around her. The smell still was hiting her nose. What was it? 

       Nava had already step out into the sun. "Morning Nava." said Aleu toward the older wolf 'Hello Aleu." he replied back to her "Some storm last night" said Aleu "Yup...it was." Nava said Aleu looked at him. "I'm going to visit my dad to make sure he is up." Aleu said as she walked away. "Enjoy the time Aleu. Everything will change." Nava said as he watched her brown fur dissapear.

         Aleu's paws hit the ground as she ran across the for est. After running for a bit she stopped at her father's boat. Balto was sitting on the shore of the beach were Aleu and her siblings had played when they were born a year or two ago. Muk an Luk were playing in the water and practicing their swimming every since they had rescued Balto before Aleu had come into the world.  Balto's ear twiched..he could her Aleu coming. He turned around to see his daughter walking up to him. "Hello daughter." Balto said kindly "Hello papa." Aleu replied to her father.

         Balto smiled warmly at his wolfdog daughter. Bories had been sitting up on the boat and was now beside Aleu. 'Hello uncle Bories" Aleu said  Aleu wasn't really related to Bories. The flightless goose had adopted Balto after  he was separated from his mother Aniu who was now a wolf spiret. Aleu had never meet her, but knew she was watching them. Balto only remembered that her voice was warm and she had white snow. That was some storm later night. Aleu heard paw steps behind her and turned to see her mother Jenna coming along with Kodi her brother and her friend Dusty who had her siblings Hayden and Pearl. They were stilll pups when they would really be her age, but in Dusty's adventure she had rescued them, but their age time had been frozen. Jenna looked up at the sky. "Balto have you noticed that the clouds over there in the shape of a circle are still kind of dark." asked Jenna

            Aleu had never notice it. How could dark cloud be doing nothing on a warm day. "I don't know." Balto said Aleu still was thinking about it too. Something was up and see didn't like it. The cloud were a darkish color and were still in their circle shape from last night.  Aleu knew she would  have to play with her friends and family, because she had thing to do that afternoon, and didn't need some strange looking cloud blocking that from her. Aleu had to s. "It must just be the way the clouds are." she said Jenna's eyes still lay on them Aleu had to say something to snap her family out of this.  "Snap out of it mom." said with frustration. Jenna looked at her wolfdog daughter. "Sorry dear."Jenna said to her daughter

     Meanwhile Nava was going toward  the cloud since they were above the woods. Nava looked around the area having a feeling that something was here that shouldn't be there.  Nava's eyes scanned the area until he say a small hole in the middle of the grass. Nava peeked into the small hole to find what he was looking for. Inside te hole was a gem, you could were it as a necklace, but it wasn't heavy. It was a silver color with a light blue spiral in it. Around it was a golden rim, holding it in. A golden color chain was attached to it. Nava knew what he needed to do with it.

       Nava reached down to pick it up in his mouth, but when he touched it he felt pain in every bone. It something was shocking him and his blood was dying away along with his bone breaking like glass. Nava moved away. He looked back at it a notice the blue spiral in it. "No wonder." he said This time Nava picked it up by the chain so the pain wouldn't return to his body. The strong stincky fell was floting around him, making his nose hurt. "I need to show this to Aleu and the others." Nava said to himself

    Aleu was running along with her family and friends. More dogs from town were with her. A wolf from her pack had told her that Nava needed er, her family, friends, and the others in town. "I wounder what this is all about." said Kodi "I don't know, but it must be importanat." Aleu said "It has to be!" cried Hayden "I hope everything is alright." called Dusty Aleu lead then to her camp.

   Nava was in the middle of a circle of wolves. "Aleu, bring the other into the circle here." called Nava to the leader. Aleu did what Nava had said even through he wasn't leader anymore. "Now have them all spread out on long the circle, making it smaller." said Nava Aleu looked at the others as they moved to find a place in the damp grass to sit.. She joined her parents along with Kodi beside Dusty and Hayden andPearl. The others there were Yak, Nuk, Sumac,Sylvie Nikki, Kaltag, Star, Dixie, Kirby, Dipsy,Mel, Ralph, Boris, Muk, Luk, and Stella. "Why are we here?" asked Ralph "Yeah?" said Nikki Nava looked at the pack and dogs and they all looked at him.. "I am warning who of something." He
