Balto Watching the Movie: (Script from Bambi_roleplayer)
Balto was sprinted along the ice with Kodiak and Jenna at his heels. They were on their way to the town after a little hunt in the woods. Balto's ears pricked. Something was wrong. His skidded to a stop, making him turn and Kodi and Jenna almost crashed into him.
"Balto?" Jenna asked nervously.
"Shh!" Balto said desperately. He bent over to sniff a crack in the ice. As he approached it, it quickly spread, surrounding them.
"What the..?" Kodi exclaimed. The auroa above them seemed to get brighter around them before everything when dark. The world twisted a little and they were poured into a small room. Jenna sighed, even if the impossible just happened, it was just a human den, it was no worry for her. Kodiak visibly relaxed too. When the human came home he could just look at their tags and bring them home before Rosy or anyone else missed them.
Balto on the other hand was pacing. He didn't like not seeing the sky for several minutes. He had entered houses before, but never like this. Never so small. Never so closed. Jenna walked over to comfort him when Kodiak's eyes widened.
"Dad…" He said in a small voice. Jenna realized the problem. A couple of huskies finding their way into a random house would raise eyebrows, but no one would be calm seeing a wolf- or half-wolf in their house. Balto was in danger.
Balto read their expressions of fear and assured them he would be okay. "Smell this place, it doesn't seem like a person's been in here for a while so-" Balto was abruptly cut off. He looked up, eyes widening in surprise and fear and leaped out of the way. Three white creatures fell from seemingly thin air, landing at Balto's feet. Balto recognized them and laughed. "Muk? Luk? Boris? What are you doing here?"
"I could ask you the same." Boris replied, pulling himself out from under Luk and dusting himself off. A figure appeared on the other side of the room with a dazed and confused expression on her face.
"Aleu!" Gasped Jenna, nuzzling fondly against her. Kodi also greeted her.
"How's the pack doing?" Asked Balto.
"Fine, 'cept I was in the middle of a speech when, whoosh! I disappeared!" She vented. "Where are we?" Everyone shrugged.
"Wait." Balto noticed something else in the room, a shiny black glass like thing about three wolves high and two wide. Next to it was a small button.
"Oh! I've always loved buttons!" Blubbered Muk as Luk pushed it and sat back on the carpet feeling fulfilled. I high pitched noise that got louder sounded up as the black ice set on the wall started up, a little orange light came on.
"Whaz that?" Boris asked, from behind Balto. Everyone looked up at the screen and gasped. The words on the screen said 'Balto' and showed a picture of him looking off-screen.
"B-b-b-balto!" Cried Muk, pointing frantically and the screen. Everybody was shocked.
"Its…me…" Balto choked out. Under his picture words formed.
His story became a legend. His adventure is one you'll never forget.
"Look! Its Steele! And Mom and Dad!" Kodiak exclaimed.
"…And Uncle Boris and Muk and Luk!" Aleu said in surprise.
"And that bear…" Jenna trailed off, laying next to Balto. The screen came to life once more.
The movie opens in Central Park, New York City. A Grandma and her Granddaughter are walking through the park, with their dog Blaze. They are looking for something. . .
"It was here. . .someplace." The Grandma sighed
Upon hearing the Grandma's voice, Jenna, frowned deep in thought.
"What is it?" Balto nudged her, a little confused about why they were brought here and why this place that looked nothing like Nome had to with him.
"But we've already been past here!" Her Granddaughter whined.
"The trees. . .have grown so big. It's been so long since my last visit." The Grandma said almost whistfully.
"To where?" Kodi exclaimed impatiently.
They went down another path.
"Come, Blaze. Grandma, when was the last time you were here?"
Blaze bounced around them excitedly.
"A husky!" Aleu said.
"Took a minute!" Kodi snorted. Aleu glared.
"Years and years ago, way before you were born, sweetheart." The Grandmother responded
"Oh look, Blaze's found a squirrel!" Exclaimed the little girl.
"Short attention span." Balto said. Kodi snickered.
"Now, just a minute. I'm trying to get my bearings. Oh. . .there are so many paths here. It's so easy to get turned around. Come on, darling." The grandmother ushered the girl onward.
"Grandma, we're in the middle of nowhere!" The little girl whined.
"We're right in the middle of New York City!" The grandmother laughed.
"But you're gonna make yourself tired walking so long." The girl complained.
"Zat kid's gonna tire herself out talking." Boris muttered. He got a 'shh!' from everyone in the room.
"Nonsense, it hasn't been more than a quarter of an hour." The grandma said as her granddaughter stopped
and passed her hat to her. "Not much further."
"Blaze is getting tired." The small girl said.
"Oh, I see." The grandmother said. Then looked at the hat, as if she was remembering something sad.
Jenna looked in shock at the hat. Balto looked at the hat confused. He knew that hat from somewhere.
"Grandma, what are we looking for, anyway?"
"A memorial." She and her grandchild sat on a bench.
"A ma-what?"
"A reminder of a wonderful story. And a place very far away from here."
"What place is that, Grandma?"
"Nome, Alaska. It's a small town
"That's where we are!" Kodiak exclaimed. He looked around remembering they'd been teleported. "I think…"
almost on top of the world. Now that really was in the middle of nowhere, sweetheart. In the cold winter of 1925, it was snowing hard.
Back then the fastest and most reliable way of getting around was with teams of dogs
pulling long sleds. Races were held every year. . . to find out the best team. And the
competition was very fierce. . ."
The picture blurred to a dogsled race being held in Nome.
"That's one of our teams!" This time it was Jenna who yelled.
The musher cheered them along as the dogs barked. Next to the first team a black and white malimute came into view, racing next to a stocky chow-chow husky mix.
"Steele!" Balto exclaimed jumping up and growling at the screen, hackles raising. Jenna quickly got him to lay down again, but Balto stayed tense.
They raced across the blinding white snow towards the town. They approached a crack in the rocky hillside wide
just wide enough to let them through. Steele doubles his speed, straining his team-mates, causing his musher to almost fall off.
"Steele! We're not gonna make it!" Star cries logically, but Steele gives him a swift kick to the face.
"Zat little…" Boris said.
He races neck and neck with another team. He snaps at one of the other team's dogs and the dog stumbles. His team unmercifully crashes into a mass of wriggling canines. Steele's team is guaranteed victory.
"Arrrghh! Steele!" The other musher cries. A man sent off a flare when he sees Steele's team coming in.
