marked the tree with arrows.

"Wow!" "That's smart."  "Cool." "We can get back!"

Steele couldn't take anymore of it!

 "Enough!" he said swipinng the knife from his hand.

"I'm the leader here!! I'M IN CHARGE!!" He yelled to BBalto.

"Then let me take the serium. They're getting sicker." Balto said going to the sled.

Steele ran to block Balto from the sled.

"Steele let me help you" Balto pleaded but Steele didn't move. 

"Twenty bucks say Balto takes it." one guy said. "You're on!" other said.

"Steele I'm not leaving without that medicen." he said walking tward it.

Steele punched him in the gut. "Who do you think you are?!" Steele said.

He Balto picked himself up and tried again.

Then Steele punched him in the face.

"Since when you do need to be rich to help someone." He said again But grabbed him arm and threw him down.

"Hey Steele calm down." one said.

Balto came but Steele knocked down the sled

"Careful Steele that's fraigle!" one said.

"What's with Steele? All Balto what to do is help."another said.

Then Steele grabbed Balto and threw him against a tree near the cliff. 

"Hehehe." said Steele. They all Stared at Steele in fear.

"Hey look!" one said.

"Grrrr!!" Steele grabbed the bandana around his neck but Balto kept pushing him away. Then the bandana came loose and Steele fell backwards to the ground. He got up grouning.

Balto sighed as he went to check the others. They were all ready to go.

"Here you can have Steele's sled." one said. "but what about..?"

"We'll get some help but for now he's looks like he doesn't want help." the other said.

"Ha!!" he coommanded the dogs.

 

"Go ahead orphaned rat You'll never get hom! I'll make sure of that. Steele said as he grabbed the knife out of the snow.

He marked trees around him as he followed Balto markings home.

"Hehe! He'll never get home." he laughed.

 

 

Balto and the team stopped for a moment.

"Oh no!" he said.

On the right it was marked and left trees were marked too. 

"Which way Balto?" asked one of them.

"Uh...this way!" pointing to the left.

In ten minates they were back at the crossroads.

 

"Balto why have you taking us in circles?!" one said

"I'm not! I mean....I don't know. Its Steele." Balto said.

One whispered. "Mabey we'd be better off with him."

Balto heard him. "No! come on!" he pushed the dogs to go right.

He paniced as he saw all the phoney marks on the trees around him.

"Balto! slow down!!"

"Cliff!!"

They all tried to stop their dogs.

They stopped in the nick of time near the edge. then the sled with the medicen started to fall.

They all froze but Balto jumped and grabbed the straped that was connected to the dogs and pulled it back.

He disconnected it to the dogs so they can get out of the way.

THen a crack echoed through.

The weight of Balto and the sled was too much.

The cliff gave in and they both fell off to the bottem.

"Balto!!" they all screamed.

 

 

Boris was at a town meeting with Muk Luk and Jenna.

 Her parents were still at the hospital look after Rosey.

The nurses treated Jenna eaisly since there was nothing much the could do for the children.

Many peaople talked at once.

"Oh it seems hopeless."

"How will the children survive without the serum?"

"The next genration is doomed!"

"Don't count Balto out he's trying!" ssaid Muk.

"how?" one said.

"Well 's tracking him." said Jenna

"That trouble-maker tracking four teams in a blizzard? ha!"

They all began to laugh.

The door suddenly bursted opened.

A figure walked in.

"Balto?" said Jenna

"Steele!" a man said.

Jenna's expression changed to happy to sad.

"Youre back were you've been?" a man said as he put a coat on ihm and a woman gave him food.

"Steele ? Where are the others?" the mayor asked.

"It was terrible one by one even some of the dogs fell frozen. Matt? Poor Matt. he just couldn't make the cut. He was the first to go. put few on the sled but it was too late for them.

"What about the medicen?"asked the mayor.

"I went on. Dragging the medicen alone until that rogue kid came. Balto! He threatened my life with his knife if I didn't give it to him so I did. " said Steele.

"Lies!" said Boris.

"Qiuet! finish it Steele."said the mayor.

"He grabbed it but he couldn't hadle it! He couldn't even see in front of his face.then he tripped and....." He pulled out the bandanawith blood onit.

"My bandana....." said Jenna. Her breathing got faster.

"And he made me promise t otake care of you Jenna." he said.

She looked at him closely."You're lying."

Everyone gasped but Balto's family.

"Steele's lying! Balto's alive! and he's coming home." she said as she tried to get up.

"I'l help you child." said Boris as he supported her. Muk and Luk followed.

"Uh...she just need alittle time." said Steele.

 

 

 

Balto was on the ground with the wind blowing around him but surprisingly he wasn't cold.

He slowly opened his eyes. He looked to the left  to see the sled a bit broken but still able to move. Then looked to the high cliff that he fell from.

"Rosey..." he started to cry.

Then something barked beside him. A figure came to him.

He couldn't see to well since the wind clouded his vison.

"Get up my son. You're journey does not end here...." a soft voice called.

"Mother...?" Balto said pulling his sore arms up. His lower half of his body felt so cold he could barley move his legs.

"I....I have to survive..." he said as he walked to the sled.

"I can't take the sled on to the cliff but If I take the box and tie it to my back I could..." he thought as he did so.

 

Jenna put a latern on the outskirts of town.  "Balto..." said Jenna.

 

 

 

" Now what will we do?"

The mushers Paniced after Balto fell.

"We don't know the way back. We're done for."

"No we're not!" a voice boomed behind him.

Balto climb the mountain with the medicen on his back.

"Balto no way!"    "Let's get that box off of you"

"Yeah! bet it weigh a ton!"

They helped Balto with the box and put it on one of the sled.

"We better move fast! Matt isn't going to last long out here and those children need help."

"Yeah! Let's go everyone!!" said Balto.

They returned to the path Balto marked.

 

Then for a moment they ran into in a denser part of the forest.

"oh no."

Balto didn't panic. "Don't worry I see the marks over by the-"

"Wolves!" someone shouted.

They were surrounded.

They all looked mean and hungry which was not a good combination with animals.

"Look out!"

They all jumped them.

Bite marks and scars were on all of them.

They all tried to protect the medicen as well as each other.

When they came closer to Balto who stood by Matt they suddenly stopped.

One sniffed Balto then they ran away from them.

"What was that about?"

"Don't know." he said They all went back to the sleds and gone off to the trail.

 

Just when they thought they were safe trouble knocked on their door.

 "I need to get out of this cold air. If I don't I'll....Achoo!" the sneeze echoed around them.

The Rumble  echoed. Then the path stared to crack from behind.

"GO!!!" said Balto they ran as fast as they can forward.

Then the whole scene looked dark.

did they survive?

 

 

 

Jenna was back in the hospital room sitting by Rosey's side. Her parents were behind her.

Her father slept but her mother was awake.

 

Balto's family waited at home. Muk and Luk and boris had a blanket covered over them as they groan for Balto.

"Balto..." said Muk.

 *sobs* Luk.

 

THen Boris hears dogs barking.

"'Balto....." he runs outside to see.

The teams were on their way.

 

"BALTO'S BACK!!" he screamed.

As Balto headed towards the town he saw the lights Jenna made.

"Jenna..." he said with a smile.

 

Jenna heared the dogs coming.

Mom! dad!" He's back the whole teams back!" said Jenna.

"The teams!" her dad said.

"They made it!"   

Then the whole town started to wake up.

"what was that?"

They all came out to see what was going on.

 

The teams came infront of the hospital.

"The serium!" the docter said runing to the sled. They got Matt inside as the others explain to everyone what happened and how Balto helped.

 

They quicky gave it to the kids.

Not a moment to soon. They got it on time.

"Balto !!"

"Balto you did it!"

 "Balto!!"

"You're a hero!!"

The all called to him.

It was kind of weird since all of them called and treated him like a criminal.

"Yeeaa! You're a hero !!!!" Boris squeashed the life out of Balto! Then Muk and Luk came in to ass the pressure to his body.

Then Rosy'e dad came to Balto.

"Come on son. There's someone who wants to see you." he said.

Boris pushed him to go.

Balto smiled and went inside.

 

"Mommie." Rosey woke up.

"Rosey!" her mother said.

Balto saw her her musher's hat so he brought it to her.

"Balto I'd be lost without you." she said taking the hat and hugging him.

"I'm just glad you, all of you, are safe now." he said to the little girl.

"Ahem." said Jenna standing in the door way smiling.

"Jenna!" he said as he ran to her.

  "Balto..." she said hugging him."I'm do glad you're-" then she saw what she was doing. She backed up blushing. 

"I thought....well.....I was worried that...uh.." she said staring at him. "Why did I do that?" she thought.

"Jenna.." said Balto he simply smiled at her which made her heart skip a beat.

she placed a hand on his cheek.

He blushed.

THen she kissed his cheek.

He backed away.

She giggled.

"So Wanna gggo out sometime?"  Balto asked.

"You're kidding right? me go with the town's hero? But mostly I'll going with Balto." she said wrapping her arms around him.

"So that's a yes?" he asked.

they both laughed.

 

 

Steele and the others were still hanging out at the boiler room.
