It was a nice, cool day in Nome Alaska. Everyone was having a good time, and hanging out, but a certain wolfdog was laying around on an adandoned boat just letting his mind wonder. The wolfdog's name was Balto, but of course, he was also known as the hero of Nome. Balto was happy with his life; he had Jenna, friends, his own pups, but something was still bothering him. Like a piece of his life was missing.
"Balto, what's wrong?" Boris the Russian goose asked as he sat next to his friend.
"I don't know, Boris. I feel like something is missing from my life. I don't know what that is though!" Balto replied gloomily.
"Well are you sick? Hurt? Angry?" Boris asked.
"No, none of those. I just don't know why I feel so down," Balto answered. Suddenly, Balto thought of something.
"Boris, what ever happened to my father?" Balto asked in almost a trans-like state.
"I'm sorry, but I don't know. When I found you, you were all alone," Boris answered.
"So you're saying he just abandoned me?!" Balto said, feeling upset.
"Again, I don't know. I wish I did though. I'm sorry boy," Boris said.
"I wish I knew why. I know he was a dog, but I was still just a pup at the time. A pup! Why would he leave me alone like that?! He saw what happened to my mom!" Balto snapped, feeling even more frustrated.
"I know Balto. Ever since I found you as a pup, I've been wondering why he did that too. I'm sorry," Boris said in agreement. Balto sighed.
"Maybe that's what's wrong. I still have unanswered questions that I want to know," Balto commented.
The rest of the day went okay for Balto and Norris. Unfortunately, once it was nighttime, things only got worse.
