At the Hospital

Dustin's POV

Me and my friends were at the hospital, I was devasted to see many kids suffer. Word got out about the medicine shortage and how many patients were in grave danger of the illness they are suffering because of Pestilentia. And even worse, the cure is so many miles away. The people decided to have a sled race with the dogs to get the antidote for the ill townspeople in such distress.

We left Balto alone because of the vents earlier and we thought we see the damage Pestilentia caused, and it was really bad. Many kids were sick because of that disease spreading witch. We then see Rosy, her parents William and Sandra, and even Jenna.

William noticed us and got up to greet us. Jenna walked to me and say beside me, whimpering in sadness.

Dustin: "Hello. I hear that things are not going well." I said and looked to Rosy, the sight of her illness making my chest ache.

William: "Yes. It seems so." William said as Rosy seemed to wake up, I walked towards her and knelt beside her.

Rosy: "Dustin. It's you." Rosy said, her throat cracking.

Dustin: "You bet, little princess. I'm sorry you're not feeling well." I said, doing best not to cry.

Sandra: "Are you alright?" Sandra said, noting my eyes watering.

Dustin: "Y-yes. I'm fine, madame. Just something in my eye." I said, wiping my tears away. Jenna then licks my face to comfort me. I took some breaths to calm down.

Kibbles: "So, we heard that a sled race is taking place tomorrow." Kibbles said.

William: "Yes. The race is to retrieve he antidote." William said in worry for his daughter's wellbeing.

Rosy: "Will I be okay?" Rosy asked, Makin more ters run down my face, but I managed to keep a smile.

Dustin: "Absolutely, little red. Once the antidotes delivered, you and all the others we'll be fit as a fiddle." I said, wiping away more tears.

Dustin: "Madame, your kid is a diamond in the rough." I said to Sandra, making her chuckle.

Karen: "She certainly is honey." My mother's voice said, catching me off guard. I run and sure enough, I see my parents, my sister's Emille and Erena, Gwen, Kevin, and even Sparky.

Dustin: "Guys." I said, running towards them and hugging them.

Kevin: "Dude, are you crying?" Kevin said, I looked at him with a serious glare, making him shut up.

William: "You must be his parents." William said.

Taiyou: "Yes. I'm Taiyou. This is my wife Karen, and these are my daughter's Erena and Emille." Dad said, introducing his other family.

Karen noticed Rosy, lying in bed sick as a dog.

Karen: "Oh, poor thing." Karen said, sitting next to Sandra.

Ben: "Guys, we need to talk. We have a bit of an issue." Ben said to Gwen, Kevin and Sparky.

Soarky: "Taiyou, Karen, why don't you two stay here and get to know these two while I talk with these guys." Sparky said as we walked out.

Gwen: "So what's the issue. And judging by Dustin's teary eyes, I'd say things aren't so good." Gwen said to us.

Ben: "That's a bit of an understatement. We're dealing with a Hellraiser." Ben said with a serious tone.

Kevin: "That's it?" Kevin said with a shrug. "How's that so dreadful."

Nega Dustin: "But this one has the ability to create and control disease. Her name is Pestilentia." Nega Dustin said, surprising he others.

Erena: "What?" Erena asked in shock and horror.

Julie: "To make things Ben worse, she's responsible for the diphtheria outbreak." Julie said.

Gwen: "I don't recall facing a Hellraiser like that, before!" Gwen said with worry.

Sparky: "Either they're bolstering their ranks, or they're more extensive than we thought." Sparky said with a worried look. "Regardless, a Hellraiser capable of controlling and even creating diseases is definitely begging for trouble. The sooner she's disposed of, the better."

Dustin: "You got that right!" I said with a growl.

Emille: "Onii-chan? Are you okay?" Emille asked me, I just walked to a nearby tree and punched at it, making small cracks.

Kevin: "I suppose that as a no." Kevin said with wide eyes.

Ben: "Pestilentia made millions of kids sick just to break his resolve." Ben said.

Gwen: "And from what I see, I'd s she did one hell of a job." Gwen said in worry as I delivered one final punch, breaking the tree and fall to the ground with a thud. Mom, Dad, William and Sandra went outside.

William: "What happened?" William thought and noticed the fallen tree.

Sandra: "I think you all may want to come inside." Sandra said as we just walked in.

William: "How did that happen?" William asked in curiosity and shock, by decided to drop the subject and went back inside with everyone else.


The next morning

No POV

There was a morning trumpet heard. The races are going to set up now.

Soon every human was out ready for the race to get the serum to cure the dreaded disease plaguing the innocence. Steele lined up to look at the other dogs, but of course, only find himself better by comparison.

Dixie: "Just look at him!" Dixie hopped around excitedly as she was with Sylvie and Dixie again. "He's gonna save the entire town! He's positively...Magnesium!"

Ben: 'Oh dear God.' Ben thought with an eye roll.

Dustin: "More like Lead, because of his toxicity." Dustin muttered to himself.

Man: "All mushers!" a man called loudly. "Get yer dogs ready!"

Balto and Boris were shown on a fence. Dustin began to make his way to the fence.

Dustin: "Hey Balto." Dustin said to his canine friend. "You feeling any better after last night?" Dustin said.

Boris: "Well, last night,I was telling Balto here what it takes to be part of a race," Boris said as he got back on the fence, though for him, it was very rickety and he stumbled against an open window, taking a box.

Boris: "Racing in a spectator sport, it recquires very little preparation! You sit, your arrange refreshments, any of you like potato chip?" he asked as he took out something white, bit into it and hiccuped a bubble and he looked to see the box was labeled 'Soap Flakes'.

Dustin: "I think I'll pass Boris, appreciate it though." Dustin said, holding in his laughter at the funny sight.

Balto: "I'm not watching the race, I'm going to be in it." Balto said shocked Boris while Dustin had a grin, thinking this may be a good idea.

Boris: "Why are you putting yourself through this, boy?" Boris asked.

Balto: "Hey, look, I wanna help Rosy get better," Balto explained why he really wanted to do this. "I can get that medicine through."

Boris: "Get it through that they wouldn't put you in a sled team even if you did win, which won't happen and if it did it wouldn't matter!" Boris added, not very supportive of this idea.

Dustin: "Then you better your tail out there. The race is close to the starting." Dustin said as Balto nodded.

Balto: "Wish me luck!" Balto called as he and Dustin went to meet the other dogs.

Boris: "Luck?" Boris scoffed. "I don't wish you luck, I wish you sense!" Boris said as Balto ran to the starting line. "Good luck, kiddo." Boris said softly.

Kaltag: "Balto? What're ya, nuts?" Kaltag, one of Steele's friends, said with widened eyes. "If Steele catches you around here, he's gonna turn you into kibble!"

Niki: "Let us let the half-dog race, it will be fun watching him eat our snow." Nikki scoffed.

Man: "Get set!" the man from before shot his pistol, sending the dogs to get their running on.

The Gwen Erena, Emille, Julie and the female dogs were surprised to see Balto in the race as well.

Jenna: "Balto!" Jenna gasped.

Dixie: "What's he think he's doin'?" Dixie was not amused.

To everyone's surprise, Balto was the one who won the race, even if he wasn't supposed to compete. It even surprised the lead musher, who refused to believe it. Boris, Erena, Emille, Karen and Kibbles cheered for and Balto for winning the race and showing up mostly Steele. Even Jenna was proud for Balto's sacrifice to race like that.

Dustin: "You did it." Dustin ran up to Balto an rubbed his head.

Steele: "Okay, Nikki, Kaltag, Star, move it," Steele ignored Balto and Dustin's cheering. "We're strapping up."

Dustin: "Sorry, Steele, Balto was the fastest dog." Dustin said to Steele.

Balto: "He's right, Steele." Balto said.

Steele looked disgusted, then grinned darkly at the wolf-dog and boy.

Steele: "He's the fastest what?! Do you two honestly think the musher will put HIM on his team? Balto, you're even more mixed up than I thought."

Jenna: "Steele! It doesn't matter who's on the team, as long as the medicine gets through, stop being such a glory hound!" Jenna said, defending Balto.

Dustin: "Well said." Dustin said with a nod.

Steele: "100%," Steele surprisingly agreed with them. "I wasn't thinkin' about those children. The important thing here is to get the medicine through. And that's just what I'm gonna do," he then started to intimidate Balto. "And when I get back... I'm gonna fold you five ways and leave you for a cat toy!"

Musher: "Good dog, Steele!" a musher came which made Steele bark and yip happily for the human, being kind and sweet which was what everyone thought he was and not bad like they thought Balto was.

Dustin: 'Someday mutt, you're gonna get what's coming to you!' Dustin thought in anger as he looked at Steele.

The musher petted Steele, then walked away from him.

Musher: "Now let's take a look at our winner here."

Steele growled once the attention wasn't on him now. He then had an idea and slammed his paw down on Balto's which made the wolf-dog growl and show his sharper canine teeth which he had inherited from his wolf parent.

Musher: "Nah, we can't trust this one, he's part wolf..." the musher told the other man and they walked off together.

Ben: "Aww, what?!

Dustin: "Hey, jackass! That's just no fair!" Dustin said to the musher and then whispers to steele. "And I saw what you did there, you monochrome basted! You can't let Balto have one moment where more people trust him." Dustin growled.

Kevin: "Oh boy!" Kevin said in worry.

Karen: "Dustin Hogan! Language!" Karen scolded, but her words met deaf ears.

Steele: "It's a rule though, dogs only!" Steele smirked at Dustin.

Musher: "Let's go!" the musher called, which made Steele follow after him.

Dustin: "Only pure bred dogs are allowed, huh? Well, how about I mix things up a bit." Dustin said, cathing the musher's attention.

Musher: "And how so?" The musher.

Dustin: "Me and my friends here join the rerteaval for the medicine!" Dustin said, surprising veryine, including Jenna, Balto and Steele.

Balto: "Huh?"

Boris: "What?"

Musher: "Kid, I appreciate your commitment, but this is a job for the professionals." The Musher said, but Dustin just glared.

Dustin: "You all think Balto here is the bad guy, well he's destined for greatness. But your all just too damn stubborn to see it." During said, Balto smiled a bit.

Taiyou: "Dustin, calm down son!" Taiyou said to Dustin, but his words didn't reach him.

Dustin: "And we'll be sure to find it before you saps do." Dustin said, the musher growled.

Musher: "By yourself and that mongrel?" The Musher asked. Ben, Kevin, Nega Dustin, Erena, Emille, Kibbles and Julie walked besides During and Balto.

Ben: "Not by himself, no. But with us, most definitely!" Ben said with a growl.

Kevin: "With friends, you can accomplish anything. And yes I'm aware how corny the sounds."

The Musher thought about this, but decided to give the young heroes the benefit of a doubt.

Musher: "Alright! I'll take that challenge! We leave by noon!" The Musher said as Steele growled at Dustin before following the musher. Karen, Taiyou and Sparky went to the group.

Karen: "You do realize you are about to embark on a dangerous path." Karen said to Dustin.

Dustin: "I know, mom. But I'm willing to help those kids get better. If I'm have to risk my life to save them, then that's a risk I'm willing to take." Dustin said with a look of determination.

William and Sandra hen walked towards them.

William: "You're willing to risk our lives for Rosy?" William asked in a look of uncertainty.

Dustin: "Not just her. But every unfortunate child." Dustin said, his words touching the two parents.

Sandra: "There nothing that can change your mind, is there?" Sandra asked him.

Gwen: "Fun fact about Dustin, once he has his mind set on something, there's no convincing him out of it." Gwen said with a smile towards Dustin.

Dustin: "And it's not just me and my friends that's gonna go through with this. But Balto is too." Dustin's aid, patting Balto. "I'm not doing this jut for the sake of the kids, but to also also show that Balto here is destined for greatness." Dustin said, Balto smiling at his touching words.

William: "Very well. We have a sled you can use." William said with a smile.

Dustin: "Thanks, but we'll go on foot." Dustin said with a thankful smile.

Karen: "I'll pack you some things for your trip." Karen said with a proud smile.

Sandra: "I'll help out." Sandra said as she and Karen went to the Brewer house to pack some food and supplies for the group.

William: "Care to talk to Rosy before you go?" William said as Dustin nodded.

Dustin: "Absolutely, sir." Dustin said as the group went to the hospital.

Unbeknownst to them, Pestilentia was well hidden from view, eavesdropping on the conversation. She pulled out her hand mirror and contacted Anabelle Lilith.

Anabelle Lilith: "Talk to me." Annabelle Lilith greeted through the mirror.

Pestilentia: "I come to inform you that Hogan is heading out to retrieve the medications, as you predicted, mistress." Pestilentia said, making Anabelle Lilith smirk.

Annabelle Lilith: "Of course. Now, you know the mission. Make sure that they do not succeed. I don't care how you do it, make sure they do not get to the medicine." Annabelle Lilith ordered.

Pestilentia: "I promise you, it shall be done, mistress." Pestilentia said, making Anabelle Lilith chuckle evilly.

Annabelle Lilith: "Excellent. Do not fail me." Annabelle Lilith said before cutting off contact. Pestilentia closed her hand mirror and walked off.


At the hospital

Balto was waiting outside with Zed, Ship and Ovi while Dustin and his friends were visiting Rosy, who looked like her condition was slightly worsening. Rosy still had the courage to speak.

Dustin: "Heya, kiddo. How ya feeling?" Dustin asked Rosy, his eyes watering.

Rosy: "Not so good." Rosy said, a bit tiredly.

Dustin: "Well, don't you worry princess. Me and my friends age gonna get the medicine here before you know it. And Balto is helping us." Dustin said, surprising Rosy.

Rosy: "Balto?" Rosy asked in surprise.

Kibbles: "That's right. We're not only going to show those meanies that Balto is a hero." Kibbles said, tearing up a bit as well.

Rosy: "You promise?" Rosy said, holding up her pinke for a pinkie promise. Dustin sniffled, but held his pinkie and made contact with Rosy's pinkie, commencing the promise.

Dustin: "Crosa my eart an hope to die." Dustin said as Rosy hugged him. Dustin then let the tears loose and hugged back.

Gwen, Erena, Emille, Kibbles and Julie: "Aww." The girls said as Ben wiped a lone tear and William and Taiyou smiled. Sandra and Karen had smiles on their faces too, enjoying the sweet sight.

Sandra: "Your son is truly something." Sandra said to Karen.

Karen: "I know. My boy is definitely going to be one affectionate daddy someday." Karen said, wiping some tears away.

Dustin and Rosy let go of their hug and Dustin went to grab the materials.

Dustin: "We better get going.

Soarky: "Me, Taiyou and Karen well stay here. Just to keep an eye on the kids and help out around the hospital." Sparky said as he two nodded.

Dustin: "Alright. Let's tell Balto we're about to head out." Dustin said before Karen and Taiyou hugged Dustin.

Karen: "You all be careful out their sweetie." Karen said, kissing his cheek.

Dustin: "We will, mom." Dustin said, chuckling. Once all was said and done, hey went to head out.

Balto was watching as the dogs and musher were off to their expedition. But he was willing to go along with this mission.

Dustin: "Hey Balto." Dustin said as Balto looked at the gang, as did Zed and the other dogs. "Ready to make history?" Dustin asked his canine comrade, who just nodded.

Balto: "I am if you are." Balto said as the other dogs barked in excitement.

Ovi: "Sometimes, you can be reckless, you know that right?" Ovi asked Dustin, who nosed.

Dustin: "I know, creampuff." Dustin said when Boris then suddenly flew towards the gang.

Boris: "Balto, please, don't go crazy on me now!" Boris tried to convince them otherwise. "This is foolishness! You will all die like dogs, oh, no offense, Balto! You'll be frozen stiff by morning! When you are frozen stiff statues, don't come runnin' to me!"

He hadn't noticed Muk and Luk sliding their way on the patch of ice. Boris collided into Muk and Luk instantly. Luk hummed as Balto and the others were going off with the ice.

Kevin: "What did he say?" Kevin asked, not understanding the polar bear.

Muk: "He said-" Muk was about to translate for his brother.

Boris: "Where are they going? They are going to freeze to save a pack of dogs and a human that doesn't like Balto!" Boris exclaimed and then realized he just understood what Luk was saying. "Oh, no, I'm beginning to understand a bear."

Muk: "Yes, yes, count us in!" Muk beamed. He went with Luk after cheering for Boris and went to stop the wolf-dog and humans.

Dustin: "Boris, like it or not, were going. An enemy of ours chased this, and we're going to undo it." Dustin said and got Boris to look inside and see how sick Rosy had gotten since their diagnosis. Boris saw this and decided to let them go with Balto to get the medicine and save the sled team, but of course, he was going to come along.

Boris: "So, let's go get the medicine..." Boris said quickly, hiding the sadness he had for the children.

Balto: "Wait a minute," Balto looked back to him. "Now you're coming?"

Boris: "Spending days in bitter cold, facing wild animals, risking death from exposure?" Boris sounded serious at first, then chuckled. "Is like holiday in Old Country!"

Muk: "Wow, great, we're goin' on holiday!" Muk said with glee, making Erena, Emille and Gwen giggle.

Dustin: "Then let's get a move on." Dustin said before looking to Rosy through the window. "Don't worry Rosy. We'll make sure to get the meds in no time." Dustin said before they all were in their way.

As they left, a figure watched the group left. This figure is shown to be Katelyn Cheatwood.

Katelyn: "Looks like I found your Achilles heel, Hogan." Katelyn said, looking towards the window of the hospital, seeing Rosy with a sinister chuckle.


That's another chapter done. And yes, I got the name of the chapter from a Balto fanfic by PerkyGoth14. Hope ya'll like this story so far and I'll see y'all next time.
