dunno.........We'd better be carful...."Balto growled. About six weeks later, Songa could see Nakita out with her son. He seemed to be doing fine. He looked like a mix between her and Zorro. But as she got closer she could see him stumbilng and falling with every step.She Helped him walk."It's okay Eathen."She smiled.He was underwait and could barly hold himself up.He was on a type of medication and his ribs where viable."Nikta....hey...."Songa smiled.She for once felt bad about what she had said,but it was Nikita's fault of it."Get away from MY SON and I!"She snarled. Im just trying to help, a first-timer needs help." Songa said calmly. Nakita snaped at her. "Oh, fine but don't go crying to Zorro when you need help!" Songa scoffed and left. "Momma, how's come never gets to see daddy?" Eathen asked. "B- Because daddy is with another girl right now, but he loves you." She lied, Zorro had never seen him. Songa had trugded back to Zorro."She wont excpet help from me !"Songa growled."I fell like I need to help." Zorro sighed.He walked to find them.Then he saw Nikita."Nikita?"He asked.She pointed her ears up looked. She slowly walked to him with Eathen.Zorro almost cried when he saw the pitaful puppy."Who you is?" Eathen asked."I'm daddy!"Zorro smiled.Eathen takled him."Hi daddy my name is Eathen,can we play?"He barked.He looked at Nikita. Thats momma!" Eathen said, thinking he didn't know who she was. "I know who she is son." Zorro said. Hearing the worn son come out of Zorro's mouth, made Nakita's heart beat faster. Eathen tried to jump on his dad, but because he was so weak he fell. Zorro lied down and let his crawl ontop of his head.They played for a while,the Eathen go to asking questions."Daddy......who dat girl mommy no like?"Eathen asked."What?"Zorro asked"Mommuh said dat you were wif anoter mummah,and den mommuh said dat she wus mean,and dat she diddn't wike me." Eathen said. "Oh did she? And what else did she say?" Zorro asked. "That she is a b**ch." Eathen said. Zorro's eyes widened."Oh no,son that's a BAD word!"Zorro said."Uh huh uh huh uh huh I uhhuhh didd't uh huh."He started tearing up."Oh,it's okay boy,I know you diddn't know,just don't say it again okay?" Zorro smiled. "Yeth daddy!" Eathen said. "Now I have to talk to your mommy about seying that, ok?" Zorro winked. Eathen nodded. "Nakita!" Zorro started. "Yes hon." She said, not even trying to corect herself. "I might not be your mate, but I AM still his father and I don't approve of this cussing stuff." He growled."Oh sure Zorro hun."She smiled. "STOP SAYING THAT!"He growled. "Oh, but why? We have our family now, don't you love us?" Nakita asked. Zorro was taken aback. What was he going to say? He couldn't just say no. He took a deep breath. "I-I... go away wolf dog!" Nakita spat, walking inside her house. "Is you the girl momma don't like?" Eathen asked. "Yes, and she needs to stop before thing get worse!" Songa said to little Eathen.

Nikita Screamed.Eathen ran as fast as he could."Poor kid......"Songa sighed. Songa walked back home. She felt realy bad for poor little Eathen. But what could she do? She wanted to help, but Nakita would not allow it. "Songa..." Zorro sihed. "Whats wrong?" She asked. "It's Eathen,poor little guy,I feel bad for him having to put up with her."He sighed.

One day, the puppy sled team was running very far from town, the musher was pleased with the work. But little Eathen was struggling to keep up. "Please.. slow... down!" Eathen cried. He felt his
