I had no idea of what it was.

I whimpered about the wound on my shoulder. When I fell I had hurt it badly once again.

I sat down feeling ignored. I then started walking towards the building where the others had gone. I arrived near the door feeling warm air coming from there. It made me smile so much that I just pushed the door open, feeling a wave of warm air hit me.

I heard gasping when I walked in. The black-and-white female was there smirking at me. Soon one dog jumped onto the ground near me and growled.

”So… more soldiers here to take this town down again huh? ANSWER!” The dog shouted at me. I growled for self-defence and took a step back.

”What? What have I done?!” I shouted trying to get an answer from the others who were now growling at me because I had showed some threat.

”You tried to hurt Dusty!” The female said with a growl. “And you did hurt her…” A second dog said.

”For God’s sake! It was only an accident!” I shouted to protect myself. I didn’t want to reveal my secret that I hadn’t run before in my life.

I felt one jaw pair strike my neck. A second pair sunk into my chest when four dogs attacked me. Each of their bites hurt like hell and I felt their force.

They threw me against the boiler. I felt my skin burn against hot metal. I smelled burnt hairs- a smell that isn’t good. I got away from the boiler before I got burnt too badly.

I got up on shivering legs. “Enough fun to hurt me like this?” I asked in a painful grin. I felt when my body started dropping towards the ground when I finally fell.

I couldn’t get up so easily. Again I felt jaws on my neck and a second pair grabbing for my back. I soon rose a few inches from the ground and I was thrown out of the boiler room.

I felt cold snow against my fur. My back was burning and I rolled onto it to make it feel a bit better.

I heard laughing from the boiler room when I finally got up. My ears dropped and my tail did the same. I started limping sadly away from the boiler room. It was too cold for me. I couldn’t stay outside too long.

I didn’t want to freeze to death, so I disappeared behind a corner where I cuddled up against a barrel that was lying on its side. Inside it I got an old pillow and a ripped blanket.

I knew that it wasn’t enough for Cold Alaska’s nights…

Location: Nome, Alaska
Time: Night time unknown, 1928


I whimpered inside the barrel. The cold air was annoying. I couldn’t sleep at all.

Soon I realised that one dog can’t run, and the second might be back and I took the run perfectly for a green horn.

I wished I could avoid that, but inside my head I knew that it was a useless thing. There was no way I could avoid the sled run that was tomorrow.

My legs started to freeze and I couldn’t feel them anymore.

”Why? What have I done to them?” I asked letting one tear run down my cheek. I felt it dropping onto my paw where it froze.

I got up and walked out of the barrel shivering in the cold air. Even though I’m a husky, nights in Alaska aren’t so warm that you could just sleep outside. I bet that wolves were also shivering inside their dens.

I padded quietly along snowy streets feeling my legs regain their feeling. I smiled warmly seeing lights still on in houses.

I stopped near one house eyeing inside it. There was a man patting a dog. I even knew who the dog was. He was Ralph.

I continued walking down the streets feeling again the weird stare on my back. I turned to see- not seeing anyone near. I wished I could stop and be with my friends again…they were dead and I’m lost in Alaska.

My body felt heavier than usually because I was badly tired. I suddenly saw the boiler room again. This time I didn’t bother to go in there and got burnt badly again so I walked behind the Hospital. I sniffed around and noticed that no one was near me.

Soon I found a door that was keeping warm air into a room. I growled and checked the whole door’s construction and for my luck it was a kind of weak one.

I slapped the door and it opened for my luck. Someone had forgotten to lock it, I didn’t care, I only ran inside the room and found a nice small blanket and one dirty pillow for the night.

My stomach growled in hunger but I ignored it and lay down near the boiler that kept the hospital warm.

When I finally succeeded to settle down I heard voices coming towards the boiler room. I couldn’t recognize the voice but it soon disappeared in a word “bye”.

Thereafter I heard the door open suddenly.

I turned my head fast and my eyes found the black-and-white female in front of the door. At once a growl was directed towards me.

Because I was hungry and tired I let out the same kind of growl towards her. Her ears flattened down while I growled back at her but she kept growling at me also.

”What…are YOU doing in here?” she asked in a growl and walked inside the room. Her fur shined a bit in the light which came from the boiler.

I got up and faced her with a growl. “None of your business,” I snapped to her.

She let out a growl again and then turned walking away leaving me all alone inside the room. I sighed and closed the door with my paw knowing that if she gets more friends to back her up she will definitely throw me out from this warm and nice room…

I didn’t mind when I rested my head back on the pillow that I had now taken for my own. I smiled when I felt warm waves against my black-and-white fur. I eventually fell asleep.

I woke up in silence. It was early like I usually woke up, even I knew that I could sleep too long to skip the boring sled run. I wished that the Musher had a new dog on their team so they don’t need me.

I missed my uniform a bit that still might be hanging in the room where the doctor had taken me.

I got up and stretched myself then padded outside now wanting to eat something good remembering the good tasting meat pieces in my bags. Sadly those pieces are in my uniform’s bags which meant that I couldn’t get them now.

I heard barking and sighed. “Oh no…the sled race is today…and I do-“ I was interrupted by a strong hand that grabbed my collar. I almost yelped in surprise when I was pulled to the sled team. They hooked me up, at once I felt cold eyes staring at me.

”Errh…Good morning,” I said quietly to Kirby who snorted for an answer. Kodi was growling. “Dusty can’t run today because of you…she hurt her paw…that means that we have to stay with you so long that we can get a new member,” he said kind of rudely to me.

I swallowed, “OK guys listen me…it was only an accident…I hav-“ I was interrupted again. “Don’t try to lie to us Rayne…we know what you are and might know what your doing even in here!” Kodi shouted at me. I felt a long deep cut inside my heart.

”I’m serious! It was just an accident!” I tried to explain knowing that I was digging my own grave…this time not on front like usual.

”Yeah right…soldier,” I heard a sigh behind me. When I turned I saw the black-and-white female standing there. She was looking at me annoyed.

”Now…You stay quiet unless we need to say something to you! Understood?” Kirby suddenly said to me and forced me to turn towards him.

I nodded my head not even listening what he told to me. I felt that I was now going to pay my presence down here.

Cargo was loaded again. I felt leather harness around me and I can swear that uniform feels a lot better than that. Even my heart was ripped in pieces and my emotion was low I still showed my tough side.

Musher was ready once again. I could only wait the order to pull the sled, what ever it was even. I wished that I could at least be with my kind…with dogs who have been trained for a meat mill where I did belong.

”MUSH!” Musher shouted and I started to run with the others soon disappearing out from the town. With fast glance I saw old boat wreck and there was standing lone figure. I smirked but kept running.

My mind sunk on my thoughts. While I was on training I heard that my first masters home town…the town where I born was now only place of death…I have heard a story from it from a dog who was on there…and I can say it was hard…my mind only started to think that town…

*Cut From The Town Out Of Characters View*

Location: Antoria Factory Town
Time: Unknown. Spring in 1928

Town named Antoria was burning badly from the artillery fire what was hard.

Every dog and man was on arms in there. Soldier’s rise their guns and shot towards the line where the fearless enemy was hiding.

The fight was over Central Plaza near second Bunker.

Young dog was whimpering inside a ditch what was made by grenade. He was young and just passed the training. He finally got up and looked the ground above him. Bullet at once almost cut his head in two pieces. He yelled and hides again inside the ditch.

He finally got up and jumped back on his own lines. He whimpered in pain when bullet scratched his back a bit. He hit on ground staring old looking dog who was Sgt from his rank. “Everything is out of control Jetz!” he whimpered feeling the fear claming inside him

”Don’t worry kid…we’re here to die for our land what is called also USA!” One really sarcastic dog mumbled from corner of collapsed building. The young dog whimpered and then looked on the distance seeing when again bullet almost cut his head. “SNIPER!” he yelled and jumped on ground.

One female husky’s ears perked up. “What someone wants?” she asked in a light laugh. Young dog was embarrassed. He was one of the brothers of Rayne. He became MIA in Antoria. He was trained fast and was only younger on field.

He got up and joined in rush what USA made towards SSWD line. On that moment he got hit by a bullet which one SS soldier shot.

He whimpered in pain hearing tracks rolling behind him. He turned his head to see US Water Tank rolling towards him. He closed his eyes when he felt his tail crushing first under the tank. “Someone help me PLEASE!” he shouted
