Chapter I

Names and Pups

Balto was asleep under his cover when he was jerked awake by the sound of boris tripping and falling onto a bunch of wood that banged loudly as it hit the ground. Balto yawned and tried to get back to sleep but boris came over to him and pulled the cover off him.
"Balto wake up its time" Boris said
"what time? Morning?" Balto asked
"no idiot Jenna is-" Boris started but balto suddenly remembered. He jumped up and ran for Jenna's house. When balto arrived He climbed through the open window and saw jenna on the floor with 5 pups.
Balto smiled "hay jenna" balto said
"Balto, Hi" jenna said looking up to him
Balto looked at the pups and saw one looked alot like him only female. One looked alot like Jenna only male one who looked like both jenna and him this one was a male one looked alot like Jenna only she had Baltos fur color and the 5th one was brown with white paws and a white mark on his back that was in the shape of a Z. Balto watched the 5 pups lay asleep.
"their beautiful" balto said nuzzeling jenna
"three males two females just what i wanted" Jenna said.
Balto laughed
"How did this one get this on his back?" balto asked licking the brown one
"i dont know that's how his fur just is" jenna said
"oh" balto said
"what should we name them?" Jenna asked
"i dont know you pick" balto said
"the one that looks like you, you name" jenna said
Balto smiled and tried to come up with a name. The sound of a howl came into his head. He smiled.
"Aleu" Balto said
"thats a good name." jenna said
"you name this one that looks like you" Balto said
"ive already picked it out. It's Kodi" jenna said
"nice" balto said.
"what about the last three?" Jenna asked balto thought of several names and came up with one.
"How about Judi" Balto asked
"right just two left" Jenna said.

"thats good" balto said
"what about our brown and white one?" Jenna asked
"you pick" Balto said.
"you have to help" Jenna said smiling.
"ok alright how about.." balto started trying to think of a name. Jenna and balto said a name that seemed to fit the 5th pup.
"Kalgorn" They smiled.
They then watched the 5 pups sleep and balto found himself dozing off too.

Chapter II

3 years later

Balto sat up and yawned. He had just woken up. It was bright in the morning and nearing summer. It was 3 years after that day he had be jerked awake by boris and told his pups were at last being born. He had rushed over to jenna's house at once and when he had arrived they had named them. The snow was gone and balto walked out of the boiler room that he had slept in and saw 2 of his sons run past him. Obviously racing again. they were 3 and they still acted like pups. His 2 daughters Aleu and Judi were still asleep. Jenna was asleep with them. He watched Kodi and Kyle turn around and start another lap. As he watched him he had a flashback to when he had first met jenna...

______________________________________________________________________________

He was running to town the race was about to start. He loved watching the races start. He hoped that someday he could be in one. Balto Jumped onto several boxes stacked just outside of a resturant and then climbed onto the roof. He jumped from rooftop to rooftop almost there he had to climb down and go threw a rundown store and went out the back. He was about to run off when he heard the sound of someone trying to get threw the tangle of branches and logs.

"Ouch, where is the end to this? Ouch stupid splinters"

Balto could tell it was the voice of a female dog. He watched for a minute before walking over to the branches.

"er hello?" balto started

"Who are you" the female dog's voice said

"Balto, do you need help?" balto asked

"Yea i cant get out of here" her came again

Balto pulled several branches out of the tangle then climbed in. He pushed through the branches and said " where are you?"

"right here" She said

Balto pushed through the branches and bumped into a dog.

"sorry" balto said

"thats ok" She said

Balto then saw that this dog was very pretty. She had bright red fur with a white face and underside. She wore a red bandana around her neck and her eyes were brown and balto found himself lost in them.

"Hello are you still there?" She said. Balto came out of his trance and shook himself.

"yea im still here come on follow me i can get you out" Balto said turning around and heading the way he had come.

balto pushed through the branches and logs and after a few minutes came out of the branches.

"thanks you" She said

"no problem i never got your name" balto replied

"its Jenna" She said

"how did you get lost in all that anyway" balto asked

"o well i need to get to the race to meet my girl there and i tried to take a shorcut but it didn't work out so well as you can tell" Jenna said smiling

Balto listened to her talk but after a few minutes he lost himself in jenna's eyes again.

jenna stopped in mid-sentence seeing the faint look on balto's face. "are you ok?" Jenna asked

Balto shook himself again. "yea im ok" balto said

"well i guess ill see you later Balto" Jenna said and started to head for the race.

"your headed for the race right?" balto asked

"yea why?" Jenna asked

"thats where im headed too" balto said

"oh" Jenna said

"we can go together " balto said

"sure i guess that cool" Jenna said

______________________________________________________________________________

Ever since then he had deeply loved Jenna. He still lost himself in jenna's eyes alot and he chuckled when he remembed the time when jenna had asked him if he had mental problems after the millionth time this happened. Kodi and Kyle apprached him.

"morning dad" Kyle said

"morning kyle" Balto said

"did you see us dad? you think we're fast?" Kodi asked

"yea yall are fast enough" balto said chuckling. "hay have you seen your brother?"

"Yea Kalgorn went out to the mountains" Kodi said

"should have known" balto said "ill see yall later"

"bye" kyle said.

Balto headed for the mountains. He heard Kodi and Kyle arguing about who won the race and he heard Kodi say something that made him laugh. "i dont care weather i won my and inch or a mile. Winning is Winning"

It wasnt very hard to get up the mountain near Nome but it depended on how high you wanted to get up it that was the challenge. Kalgorn always went to the very top. For some reason he liked it up there. Balto climbed to the top and saw Kalgorn curled up with another dog. He smiled. so this is why he likes it up here balto thought. He left not wanting to intrude on Kalgorn's privacy.

As balto descended the mountain Kalgorn and the female dog he was with went on chatting. neither of the heard balto come up the mountain or start to go down the mountain.

"Misty" Kalgorn said

"yea" Misty said She was a black husky with white underside and paws. Her eyes were deep blue and she like Kalgorn had lived in nome her hole life.

"have you ever been outside of Nome?" Kalgorn asked

"No why?" Misty asked

"When im up here i can see all this land but when i get to the bottom of this mountain it feels like the world is limited to just Nome" Kalgorn said

Misty listened to Kalgorn talk about his want to see more of the world. To escape the clutches of the town that seemed to had developed on Kalgorn.

"dont you ever think about what's on the other side of those mountains?" Kalgorn asked

"no not really" Misty said

Kalgorn looked at her. "you mean you have never wondered what the rest of the world looks like?"

"No, I think Nome is a nice town and im not much for big towns" Misty said

"i just feel like im trapped in this small town" kalgorn said

"Look Kalgorn ive got to go. Ill meet you bye the post office later ok" Misty said standing up

"alright bye Misty" Kalgorn said and misty started to climb down the mountain. Kalgorn continued to stare out into the views that the mountain provided.

"someday im gunna leave this town and explore the world " Kalgorn said

Chapter III

Elijo's Run

Kalgorn climbed down the mountain about an hour later and when he arrived at his home he saw that Kyle, Kodi, and Judi were now up. Aleu was nowhere to be found. His Mother and Father were also gone. He wondered only briefly where they could be before a large amount of snow hit him in the face.

"too slow" Kodi said laughing.

One of Kodi's friends started laughing. His name was Duke. Kalgorn rolled his eyes and went over to them.

"hay that's really starting to get annoying" Kalgorn said.

"start paying more attention to what's around you. Really your a sitting duck" Duke said

Judi then came over to them. "where is Aleu?" Judi asked

"i dont know i havent seen her all day" Kalgorn said.

"O well thanks anyway" Judi said and walked off.

Kodi and Duke looked at Kalgorn.

"where have you been? you weren't anywhere this morning" Kodi asked

"thats none of your business" Kalgorn said and went into the boiler room to take a short nap. Maybe he should stop getting up so early.

Balto and Jenna were wondering in a forest near nome. They came up to a fallen tree that was sticking over their path. Balto jumped over it but jenna went under.

"Jenna this morning your not going to believe what i saw Kalgorn doing" Balto said

"what?" Jenna asked looked at him

"well he was on top of the mountain again but he wasn't alone" balto started

"balto you
