Balto: Steel's Revenge Chapter 1. Steel's Back
Balto howled as loud as he could as he approached the village with the medicine to cure the flu epidemic that had hit Alaska.
"YOU'RE A LIAR!" Dixie shouted at Steel as she slammed the cabin door shut on him.
Several years later, Steel was an outcast. He was no longer wanted in the village from the lies that he had told.
Steel grumbled to himself as he tried to find his supper. The snow from the blizzard ruffled through his now greasy fur. "Stupid flu epidemic, Stupid blizzard, stupid sled team, stupid village. STUPID BALTO!"
He slipped down the hill and landed in a huge pile of snow snout first.
He spat out a mouthful of snow and shook all the snow off himself.
"I gotta….Find….A way…..To…Turn everyone against Balto…But, how?" Steel mumbled to himself exhausted. He carefully walked across the thin ice covering the icy cold water underneath. His front right paw pushed against the ice.
CRRRAAACCKK!
The ice began to crack and gave in beneath his paw. He screamed and jumped back but the ice behind him gave way too and he fell into the freezing cold water. He finally managed to get out onto the surface and lay under a tree shivering.
"Wake up Uncle Boris!" Muk shouted running up the stairs to the crashed ship.
"Oh no, my day just officially got worse." Boris mumbled to himself getting hugged by the two polar bears.
"Come on Uncle Boris, play with us, will you play with us Uncle Boris, will you play with us?" Muk yelled jumping up and down on the spot from excitement.
"For Ze last time NO! I will NOT play wiz you!" Boris snapped with his Brazilian accent.
"Come on Boris, give them a break will you?" Balto yawned and walked over to his water bowl.
"They've been waiting for three days."
Boris frowned and sighed. "Fine. Race to Ze Sea. Ready? GO!"
Muk and Luk raced down to the seaside and Boris got out the mop and bucket from the corner of the room.
"Zey win." Boris chuckled to himself.
"You shouldn't do that." Balto scolded as he jumped off the boat and ran down the street.
"Oh come on, have a sense of humour wolf!" Boris yelled to him.
Kodiak rushed past Balto followed by the rest of the dog sled team.
"The mail has finally arrived." Kodi cheered and smiled at his father.
"Good job. New record, you're getting faster." Balto smiled back watching the team jump up and down with joy.
"Piece of cake." Dusty said blowing the hair out from in front of her eye.
"Hey, Hey, guess who I saw today guys!" Kodi yelled over the laughter of the other sled dogs.
They all went silent.
"I saw the husky that got ran out of town!" He shouted wagging his tail.
"Yeaah, sure you have. Hey, guess what, I saw a unicorn today too!" a brown furred husky yelled from the back of the crowd of dogs.
They all started to laugh and Kodi walked over to his father, ears and tail down and with a sad expression on his face.
"Y-you believe me…..Don't you dad?" He asked hopefully and looking up at him.
"Yes son. Don't listen to the others." Balto told him reassuringly.
"Now, you saw the husky that got ran out of town?" Balto asked surprised.
Kodi nodded and Balto's mouth dropped wide open.
"I-I thought he was dead…." He said to himself.
"No, why…What's wrong?" Kodi asked wagging his tail.
"Steel….He's still out there…There's something I haven't told you son. He used to be my enemy when I brought the medicine back to the village, but he had told everyone that I died with the rest of the sled team and when I returned...Well, let's just say nobody liked him anymore." Bolt explained to Kodi with a strange tone in his voice.
"Never mind..." Balto said to Kodi and walked off to find Jenna.
Balto burst through the dog flap in Jenna's house and started to panic.
"Jenna, you won't believe this! Steel he's, he's!" he stammered in a rush.
"Whoa, Whoa, slow down Balto…Now, what's wrong?" Jenna said to him calmly kissing him.
"Its Steel…He's, he's alive." He replied lying down next to her.
Jenna is surprised by this but tells Balto not to worry.
"Don't 's going to be JUST fine." She told him.
Steel stood at the top of the hill and watched all the village lights go out to go to sleep. He snarled and began to slowly trot down the hill with pure rage, the snow crunching under his paws and leaving paw prints in the snow.
"Balto will play with his own blood!" he growled as he snook into the village keeping to the shadows.
"This WHOLE town will play for what they have done!" Steel howled at the top of his voice as a battle cry.
"There will be NO survivors!"
