Balto asked his mother.

"Balto keep moving" Anju said Balto did as he was told they both ran up the mountain to the top they had a dead end. Anju looked around there was no way out "Balto honey if your father find us here I want you to run as fast as you can" Anju said "mom what's going happen?" Balto asked "I'll tell what's going to happen son your coming home with me" Buck said.

"The hell he is Balto run!" Anju said Balto ran right passed his father Buck turned around "Balto wait!" Buck said then Anju jumped on top of him then they both fell down the mountain both of them hitting rock's getting stabbed by rock's till they got to the bottom.
