Prologue: Background
The story of Balto began in 1925 when the Serum Run took place. Four years before, Jenna was born in Anchorage. She was adopted by a girl named Rosy's parents, Jim and Claire. Jenna was given to Rosy as a Christmas gift.
Chapter 1: New Beginnings
"Alright Rosy, we still have one more gift for you." Jim said to Rosy, handing her this box. "I hope it's what I think it is! I've been wanting one forever!" Rosy said, unwrapping the gift. A red and white husky puppy was inside, "Oh! I knew it, thank you thank you!" Rosy said hugging her parents in gratitude. "Haha, I knew you'd like it. Now Rosy, we expect you to take very good care of her. Remember, she's a living thing just like us." Jim said to his daughter. "I promise Dad! I'll name her, hmm Jenna!" Rosy said, holding the puppy in her arms. "What a perfect name, sweetheart." Claire said.
Jenna barked happily as she wagged her tail looking up at Rosy. Rosy got down on her knees and started petting Jenna and playing with her. "Look at that. Friends till the end." Jim said to Claire as they both watched their daughter play with the small puppy. "I think we should let them be." Claire said before walking towards the kitchen. Jim smiled before leaving his daughter to play with Jenna. As Jim was walking towards the kitchen he could hear Rosy's laughter and joy coming from the living room. He smiled at that just as he entered the kitchen.
"Jim dear, don't you think we need to tell her?" Claire asked. "About moving you mean?" Jim asked. "Yes, we're moving just next week. She needs to know." Claire said. "Alright, let's go." Jim said. Jim and Claire walked to the living room where Rosy and Jenna were playing, "Rosy, could you and Jenna come here please?" Jim asked. Jenna and Rosy walked to where Jim and Claire were, "Rosy, we're moving to Nome next week." Jim said. "Again? Why do we need to move again, dad?" Rosy asked. "For work honey, this is probably the last place we're going. Your school is much bigger and so is the house, you and Jenna will have plenty of room to play and there are so many sights to see in Nome." Jim said. "Okay dad, just promise me you can be home more often with me and Jenna." Rosy said.
"Well Rosy, we move on Monday. So for the next few days we'll probably enjoy Anchorage for as long as we can." Claire said. "How so Mom?" Rosy asked. "well, we'll probably go eat at that sea food place that we always enjoy, Pincher's Paradise." Claire said. "Then we'll take Jenna to the dog park and let her play." Jim said. "Yay! Sounds like I won't be bored for the next 4 days!" Rosy said
With the next few days being flown by so quickly. It was Monday and it was moving day. Rosy and Jenna both got in the backseat of the car and waited for Rosy's parents to get in the car and leave. Claire and Jim both got in the car with Jim driving. "Alright everyone say bye house!" Claire said as she looked back at Rosy in the backseat. "Bye house!" Rosy cheered as she waved goodbye to her old house. The family drove away to the new place they would call home for little do they know, years upon years. Rosy and Jenna slept in the backseat while Jim and Claire switched between drivers, each taking 1 hour turns. Jim yawned, "Man, this drive is going to be a long one, it's already 2 in the morning." Jim said, looking at his watch. "Dad, are we almost there?" Rosy asked. "Almost dear, we still have about 45 minutes left to go." Jim said. "Okay dad," Rosy said as she laid her head on Jenna's side.
45 minutes later they pulled up to the new house. "Well we made it," Claire said as she looked at her husband. Jim smiled as he looked at his wife and then looked back at Rosy and Jenna who were sleeping soundly next to each other. "Hey, Rosy." Jim whispered, tapping Rosy on the neck. Rosy woke up, "Dad? Are we there?" Rosy asked, rubbing her eyes. "well, why else would I wake you up? Come on, let's go inside and we can bring our stuff inside in the morning, it's 4:00 in the morning." Jim said. "Okay dad, let me wake Jenna up." Rosy said, petting Jenna. Jenna woke up, "Huh? What's going on?" Jenna asked. "Jenna? How can I hear you?" Rosy asked. "I can talk?" Jenna asked. "Rosy, are you talking to Jenna?" Jim asked, confused. "Yeah dad, she can hear me somehow." Rosy said. "You're just tired, dear. Let's get you inside and get you and Jenna to bed." Jim said.
Jim then picked up his daughter and carried her in the house with Jenna walking beside him. Jim took Rosy up to her new room which only had her mattress. Jim laid down Rosy and tucked her in her bed. "Dad I swear I heard..." before Rosy could finish, Jim lightly tells her "Shh... it's time for bed sweetheart." Jim said said as he kissed her on the head and stood walking out of her room, keeping the door a tiny bit open for some light so Rosy wouldn't get scared.
December 30, 1923
Morning finally arrived, Rosy was woken up by her father and brought to the kitchen for dinner where Jenna was lying down, still asleep. "Morning mom." Rosy said. "Good morning dear, did you sleep well?" Claire asked. "Yeah, Jenna slept with me and kept me warm and cozy!" Rosy said, reaching down to pet Jenna. "Good to hear that you and Jenna are getting along well." Jim said, reading his paper. "Well, I have to go to work dear, I will see you guys later!" Jim said as he went to pick up his hat and coat to walk to work. "I have to get going too Rosy, I will be home in a few hours, why don't you and Jenna play for a little bit, your things are in the shed Rosy, have a good day dear." Claire said, kissing her daughter goodbye.
After her parents had left, Rosy woke up Jenna and then went outside to play with her. Rosy played with Jenna for a little bit before walking over to the shed. Rosy then got out some toys and a ball to play with Jenna. Jenna was never so excited to play with a ball, having Rosy pick it up and being thrown across the yard.
Jenna brought back the ball to Rosy and placed it down by her feet. "Good girl!" Rosy cheered as she picked the ball and throw it again. After a few hours of playing with the ball, Rosy and Jenna both walked into the house to keep warm from the snow outside. Rosy then went up to her room and changed into more warm clothes. Jenna sat down at the couch and smiled as Jenna was walking over to her. "Oh Jenna I love you!" Rosy said as she hugged Jenna. Jenna smiled as she licked Rosy's face. "I love you too Rosy!" Jenna said while licking her face.
Little do these two know what events and adventures lie ahead of them. These events will test friendship and trust as the two encounter many enemies and obstacles.
