running. "Mom! I'm coming!" He barked. She looked over at him, and jumped out of Rosie's father's arms. "Kodiak! Your alive!" She started to run, but tripped over her own feet and fell to the ground. "Aggg!" Jenna yelped in pain. "Mom! Whats wrong?" Kodi ran to his mother's side. "Watch out, Kodi!" A man yelled. "Looks like your mother is in labour. But...Since she was hit....will she and her pups make it?"

  "Ashton-look out!!" Balto yelled.  But his order was too late. Stone head-butted Ashton in the chest, sending him sprawling to the ground. But as soon as Ashton tried to get up, Balto put two of his front paws on Ashton's chest. "Balto-what ARE you DOING?! Help me!" Ashton asked, confused. "I'm helping you alright. Helping...to kill you." Balto replied. Ashton's eyes widened. "W-why?" Ashton asked again, as Balto let him stand up, and stood by Stone. "Because...." Balto's voice trailed off. "Beacause I'm...not going to kill you after all. I'm going to let you suffer-STONE!!" Ashton grew a smile on his face as he watched Balto jab his claws into Stone's neck. But Ashton turned away as balto dug his teeth in Stone's neck-and ripped it. Balto dropped Stone;let him fall to the ground and literally watch him suffer a long,slow, and painfull death. Ashton watched in horrer as Stone tried to say something, as he watched his neck sqirting blood out of it. "Tell......tell...Aleu...I.......lo.....ve..", was all Stone could say before he gurgled blood out his mouth, along with his final breath. "Come-on." Balto said. "Lets not stay around and watch." He calmy said again. Then, Aleu came running towards him and Ashton, crying. "Aleu!!" Ashton yelled, running to her side to comfort her. Then Balto did the same. "Aleu, what happened?" Balto asked. "Mom....Kodi......" She stopped. "What about Kodi and Jenna?!" Balto asked again. "Kodi had to watch..." She stopped again and broke out in sobs. "Kodi had to watch what?" Ashton said, gently nuzzling her. "Tell us the whole thing." Ashton said. "Kodi had to watch mom die. While she was having her puppies in White Mountain." Aleu finished. Then everyone was silent. "Jenna..never told me she was having pups......" Balto started to cry as well. "It must have been a secret." Ashton said. "I....want to see her again..." Balto whispered. "So do I, papa." Aleu whispered back, as they began to make their way to White Mountian.

When they arrived, they saw Kodi with Jenna. They immidiatly ran to him. "Oh...oh god!" Balto cried. "Jenna had five pups........only two survived." They heard a man say. "And she didn't survive either. Well, might as well name them......" A brown and white puppie, male, was named Cooper, and a Black and white pup, also male, was named Lightning.

Weeks later, Balto, Aleu, Kodi, Steele, and Ashton returned to Jenna's grave. There it read:

Jenna

A Special huskie who was owned by Rosi and her parents, and the wife of Balto, known as the dog who saved Nome. She is not dead, for she lives in all of our hearts.
