Music's Treasure (Changed the name)

Former Name: Balto: Journey for Music

Sumarary:
It's Valentine's day, and everyone is happy, all except for Lindsy. She tells Anene her story, and the wolf/dog finds out that this happens every year. Not wanting her owner in misery, she sets out to look for what Lindsy has mourned, ever since moving to Nome.

Light snow flakes fall down an early morning, the sun started to rise out, and activity started in Nome. Decorations stood out on the streets and stores, mainly burnary red and light pink. In one of the best houses, a brown one, sharing it's equal decorations of the light colors, a young brown, cream and black wolfdog woke up, opening her eyes immediatly. She slowly stood up from her bed, and shook off what was left of sleepyness, adding a nice yawn.

Anene padded over to the kitchen, where she looked at the calender plasted on the cabin, a smile starting to grow on her face. The month was Feburary, and the day, was 14th. The canine mix trotted to outside, and began to dig something out, ignoring the fact that she was getting dirty, and was going to have to take a bath.

She took out a rather large bone, and walked back inside. She entered another room, and started sniffing around, finding what she was looking for, a bright red ribbon. She put it on a chair, and grabbed one end, then turned it over. She took the other end, and grabbed it also, then lifted the side that was crossed, and passed it over.

She grabbed the other end again, and looped it over, then passing it through the loop she made. Anene smiled at her work, and grabbed the "ribbon", soon taking it to a bed room, and putting in front of her sleeping master. She walked over and pushed the wheel chair to the side of the bed.

"It's a good thing I payed attention to the presents, Linsdy's parents made." She thought to herself " If I hadn't, then I wouldn't be able to wrap it so nicely."

The young wolfdog smirked to herself, happiness twinkling in her light brown eyes. She smiled, and inhaled, then howled quietly, trying to make it sound as if she was singing. the girl that was in the bed, Lindsy, stirred, and fluttered open her eyes, to see Anene howling, a bone badly wrapped in front of her, and her wheel chair by her bed.

" Anene, what are you doing so early?" She asked, sitting up straight. " And who wrapped this bone?" She said sarcasticaly, noticing that her paws were dirty.

" I wrapped it! I wrapped it by myself, Lindsy!" She thought, jumping to the bed and licking her owner's face. " Happy Valentine's day, Lindsy."

Lindsy hugged her, and reached for her wheel chair. Anene jumped down, and nudged it towards her. Lindsy got on it, and grabbed the bone, she looked at the calender by her bed, and saw that it said:
" Feburary 14th" She smiled, but it quickly faded, the girl sighed.

" Come on, Anene. Let's go get some breakfast." She said to her dog, half smiling.

" I should do this more often." Anene thought to herself, and walked by her owner, wrinkling her nose at the smell of waffles, with syrup.

" Good morning, Lindsy." Her mom said, walking over to hug her. " Happy Valentine's day." She said calmly, while hugging her.

" Yeah... happy Valentine's day" Lindsy said, half heartly. Anene looked up at her concerned. Her owner smiled, and petted her, before going to the table.

Anene cocked her head, and walked over to check the waffles.

No one? Well then... (Ahh! Double post! DX )

" I'm afraid she's upset." The cook said to Anene, grabbing a little piece, and throwing it to her. " When will she understand it wasn't her fault? Oh Anene, I was hoping that a new dog would cheer her up, but, it didn't." He said, sighing.

" I know what'll cheer her up!" She thought, walking to another room, and came back, pulling a sled, big enough for her. She dragged it over to Lindsy. She looked, and petted her, but then sighed.

" No Anene, I don't feel like sledding right now." She told her, and kept on eating her waffles, thinking about something.

The wolfdog lowered her ears, and dropped the harness. She walked out of the house, where Buster, Abella and Balto were talking.

" Anene! Happy Valentine's day!" The poodle exclaimed, walking over.

" Yeah, same to all of you, I guess." She responded, looking upset.

" Is there something wrong?" Balto asked her, a bit worried.

" With me? Nothing, it's Lindsy I'm worried about." She responded looking up at everyone.

" Is she hurt?" Buster asked, wrinkling his nose.

" No." Anene answered, shaking her head.

" Is she sick?" Abella asked.

" No, she seems a little... upset." She looked up at the house.

" Do you know why?" Balto said.

" No, I don't. I tried to cheer her up, with the sled, but it didn't help in any." Anene said, cocking her head. " It's the first time I've seen her like this. I wish I could help."

" Well, if you need anything, tell us." Buster told her.

" Thanks." She said smiling, then got up, and went down the road.

She walked up to a house, and scratched the doggy door. No one answered.

" Hmm, I wonder where she is." Anene jumped the steps, and glanced to both sides, seeing nothing, she started to cross it, but a horse almost got in her way. Watching as it passed by, two red dogs sang as they enjoyed the ride.

" You are my sunshine, my only sunshine, you make me happy, when skies are gray! You'll never know dear, how much I love you, please don't take, my sunshine away!" They sang in duet, 'till Saba noticed Anene.

" Happy valentines day!" She said, as they got farther away. Anene smiled, shaking her head, and then started to chase after the sled.

" Hello Saba, Joy." She said, noticing the red faced dog winking at her in greeting as she sang. " Have any of you seen my mom?" She asked, panting for air.

This time, it was Joy who stopped singing, she shook her head. " No, but ask my mom, maybe she knows." She said, and then continued singing.

Anene stop, and thought for a moment. " Yeah, maybe Jenna can help, after all she's almost always with her." She then started to walk again, trotting around town, looking everywhere, until she came up to Jenna by the butchers.
