A/N: This idea for a very short fic was sprung from mishearing a single line in "Balto: Wolf Quest," the one about being "raised by a goose." So here it is.

Balto wondered how to tell Aleu about the true secret of her heritage. "Aleu…I was raped by a goose. That's why you don't look like Jenna. You're part goose."

"I'm part what?" Aleu exclaimed. And who could blame her? Balto could hardly believe it, himself.

"It was awful," he said, tearing up with the awfulness of the memory. "All those feathers. I couldn't breathe. He just pulled me into the bushes and…well…you know. And then I found out I was going to have a kid…"

"Wait, I thought you were a boy," protested Aleu. "How could you have a kid?"

Balto blinked. "…I dunno. But this movie doesn't make sense anyway, so whatev."

Aleu shrugged. "Suit yourself. But I think I'd better go back to being all teenage angsty and stuff. You know. All that jazz."

"Whatev."

Fin.

A/N: Yeah. There you go – interesting, isn't it?
