Here is chapter 4 as promised, it will by a while before i can update again because of school and football. I did win my first football game of the season though
"Sir the recon squad we sent out hasnt radioed back yet" a Marine private said manning a radio at a Marine command post
"How long has it been?" a Marine Staff Sergeant asked
"Sir?" the private asked
"How long has it been since the recon team left!" the staff sergeant yelled annoyed at the privates stupidity
"Three hours sir" the private responded
"Dammit! at this rate we'll lose the phillipines!" the Staff Sergeant yelled. It had been the fourth squad this week, the think jungles of the phillipines made it easy for Japanese soldiers to hide and ambush American troops inflicting heavy casualties on the U.S Marines it almost seemed like for every five new Marines they got, four got killed
"Wait sir im getting something" the private said as he heard static over the radio
"Help- Japa- ambuh- half of sq- ead- reques- assi-nce" The voice over the radio cried
"Soldier identify yourself" the Staff Sergeant ordered
"Corpo- Vince Wilkins- third pla- G com-any- recon- AHHHHHH!" the voice cried again
"Corporal? CORPORAL?" the Staff Sergeant shouted "DAMMIT!". He walked across the tent with his hand on his chin he then looked at the private
"Private do we got any dogs?" He asked
"Yes sir they just arrived today" the private responded
"Get a rescue squad together and gear up those dogs" the Staff Sergeant said "we're going to find that missing sqaud"
"Sir wouldnt it be a better idea to not put vests on the dogs? the Japs will just think they are wildlife" the private asked
"Good idea private except dogs arent native to the phillipines and since the japs dont use dogs, it would be pretty obvoius where they come from dont you think?" The staff sergean said annoyed
"Sir im sorry sir i wasnt thinking" the private said
"damn right you werent now get those dogs ready to roll" the Sgt yelled
"Yes sir!" the private shouted. After the private left to get Balto's squad ready for combat, the Sgt sat down and pulled out a cigar, he took a long puff and then exhaled deeply, a cloud of smoke coming from his mouth
"I swear i got the biggest dumbasses under my command" the Sgt said to himself
"Excellent work doctor" a Nazi shouted as Buddy ran through the obstacle course without a sweat
"dont thank me sir, your funding made this possible" a Nazi scientist said
"You flatter me doctor, is T- 5637 ready for the field?" the Nazi soldier asked
"Yes, all memories of his prevoius life have been eliminated and replaced with memories of serving the Fuhrer" the scientist explained
"Good good allthough he needs a real name, T-5647 isnt really a name for a dog" the Nazi said
"His name is Deiter" the scientist replied
"Ah a strong name indeed, now for his first mission" the Nazi said as he sat down to explain the mission "During our occupation of Nome, we drew up many important battle plans there, after we were defeated by the americans we left a lot of valuable info behind, we must not let the allies get ahold of them so Dieter and Hades will go into Nome and fetch the plans for us"
"excellent plan sir, when do they deploy?" the scientist said
"Three hours" the Nazi soldier said
Balto, Bruto, and Tony were helping themselves to some meat when they heard a couple of Marines arguing, it sounded like a sqaud had gone missing and the dogs were needed to help find them.
"Well thats just great, i was enjoying the good food" Bruto said licking his chops as a dog handler walked over to them, although the handler couldnt not speak dog, he used a series of movements and sounds the dogs could understand
"Okay boys we had a squad that went missing three hours ago, and we got a message saying they had been attacked and needed assisstance, so you'll be going with a squad of Marines to help find them, your job will be to sniff out Japs got it?" the dog handler said as the dogs nodded their heads
"Five bones we gets ambushed again" Tony said grimly as he recalled what happened in Africa on their last tour
"Dont jinx it" Balto snapped at Tony. since Balto was expecting children now, he had to come home alive. A dog handler helped the dogs put on their vest, as usual they were thick and heavy to protect from bullets and shrapnel but these vests were a darker green instead of the yellowish ones they used in Africa. They were also fitted with dog socks to protect from the many sharp edges on the jungle floor.
"So Balto have you got any names picked out yet? Bruto asked
"Not yet i kinda like the name Kodi though" Balto explained
"thats a nice name" Bruto said
"So how is katie doin?" Balto asked Bruto
"Allright we've been talkin about pups for a while but i wanted to wait until the war was over" Bruto explained
"Wish i had thought of that" Balto said
"Balts how exaclty did it happen? Tony asked
"how exaclty what happened? Balto asked
"You know" Tony said looking for the right words "the puppy makin"
"I dont know it just sorta happened you know, i mean we kissed and the- actually the rest is private and id feel better not saying" Balto said
"okay have it your way" Tony said
"say have you and Evelynn given any thought to pups yet" Bruto asked Tony
"Not yet, we're trying not to rush things i mean we just got married" Tony said
"Didnt stop him" Bruto said pointing to Balto
"Hey!" Balto yelled
"Im sure we will in the future after this war is over, i dont wanna bring pups into a war world" Tony said "Youze know what i kinda miss" he said again
"What" Balto asked
"our texans analogies" Tony said refering to Buddy's annyoning analogies
"I really wish i knew where he went, its not the same without him" Bruto said
"i wonder how Cali's dealing with it" Balto said as the dogs and rescue squad began to move out. The rescue squad consisted of the three dogs, ten riflemen armed with Thompson machine guns or M1 Garand rifle, two snipers, a medic, and a radio operator. They were going on foot because a vehicle made a lot of noise and the roads were a prime ambush position. The dogs using their sense of smell to find the missing squad and any ambush positions.
Buddy sat in his cage looking at his new uniform. His old green vest with a U.S flag on the shoulders was replaced with a black vest with the swastika engraved on the sides. He moved his tail and dust flew into the air causing him to sneeze
"Gesundheit" a voice came from the shadow
"Whose there!" Buddy demanded as a black german shepherd appeared from the shadows
"Allow me to introduce myself Dieter my name in Hades, your sqaudmate
"who is Dieter?" Buddy said
"You are" Hades said
"Well than pleasure to meet you Hades" Buddy said unsure about his new name
"I came to tell you we are headed for Nome Alasksa, we need to recover plans that our humans left there when the americans attacked us" Hades explained
"Nome?" Buddy said, it sounded incredibly familiar to him
"Yes, we leave in three hours" Hades said as he left the room
"Perfect, now i can finally kill those dogs mates and leave them with nothing" Hades said as he walked away laughing
Jenna could feel her belly growing by the day, she had found out she would have six pups, three boys and three girls and she couldnt wait for them to be born. She only hoped Balto would be home in time to see them
"Hey Jenna" Jenna's friends lifelong friends Dixie and Sylvie said
"Hey girls" Jenna replied
"Oh you and Balto are gonna have the CUTEST puppies ever!" Dixie exclaimed, she loved puppies
"Well i see your opinion of Balto has changed" Jenna said with a smile
"Of course, who knows how many humans would be dead if he hadnt showed up" Sylvie said. She was right too if Balto hadnt shown up, many POW's would been executed along with Jenna's owners father. Plus the Nazi's would have been able to invade Canada and America
"So Jenna have you picked out any names for your pups yet?" Dixie asked
"Well since there is six of them, I'll pick three and Balto will pick three" Jenna said
"And what are your three?" Sylvie asked
"I picked out Saba and Juno for girls and Dingo for a boy" Jenna said smiling
"Those names are absolutely adorable" Dixie said "Well i got a date with Steele, ill see you later"
"Bye" Jenna and Sylvie said
"Oh that reminds me i gotta go meet Kaltag" Sylvie said
"Sylvie your seeing Kaltag?" Jenna said excitedly
"Of course he's handsome and sweet, ill catch you later" Sylvie said as she left Jenna's house.
"Please come home soon Balto" Jenna said as she fell asleep
