Chapter 15: The Trails

Chilam 1:00 A.M. (6 hours Until Dawn).

Chilam and the rest entered the way Darwin and Rosy and the others were in. Jenna was picking up a scent. It was leading to The Tracks. They saw how far The Tracks lead down. Mike picked up a rock and dropped it down. They heard nothing til then they here a thump. Hundreds of feet down, and they have no way of going down. They turned and saw no carts.

"No! Theirs no way they went down there!" Chad shook his head trying to convince himself and the others not to go down the tracks dangerously.

"I hope you're right." Sam said. "They're kids, they wouldn't want to go down that dark ass hole." Jenna barked to see if the kids or Balto would hear her. "Sh! We don't wanna get a Wendigo's attention."

"They're probably down there." Chilam said. "Foot prints and paw prints lead to the tracks, they got on carts and went down. Down their the handle that changes tracks. It's switched."

"Maybe it means nothing." Chase said.

"Foot prints are fresh." Mike said touching them. Chase backed away from Mike. Went to Sam. Sam looked at the work bench. She found a lamp but as she moved it, behind it was another Totem. A White Totem. Fortune.

"Another one." Sam said. Chase came in. As they look through the Totem they see their Fortune.

White Totem 2 to 4 . . .

Chase gets the Wendigo's attention by using a knife tapping a barrel. The Wendigo turns and Sam is saved.

Present . . .

Sam puts it down. Chase breathes heavily. Chilam was trying to move the spare carts, but the one were either damaged, old, or stuck. And the others she'd have to attach, but that would take forever. They don't have much time left. Chase noticed how much of the Totems he was in. He was worried it would mean it's the end of him. He shook.

Sam looked at the tracks. " Is it possible we can cross?"

"Without any of us dying? 50% chance." Chilam said. "But I think it's possible. We'd have to be super careful. I'll go first."

Chilam walked on the tracks, she was slow and watched every piece of wood she stepped on.

"Stay balanced." Chilam said. Everyone was on the tracks. Sam peaked down and saw how far down it was.

"Keep moving." Mike said. "Don't look down." Mike slipped and Jenna grabbed him by the jacket. Pulled him back and got him back in balance. "Thank-" He stopped and heard cracks. He looked down his feet and saw the wood was rotten and about to break on him and Jenna. Mike leaped and Jenna ran, but the woods broke and she was at the edge. Mike pulled her up and held her. "We're even now girl. Just stay in my arms."

"We all have to be careful." Chilam said. "What part of careful don't you get."

"Chase?" Sam asked.

"Yes?"

"Are you doing good?" She asked.

"You bet'cha!" He replied. Wood chips rained on top of them. It startled them. Chilam brushed in off her face. She took a step and the wood she stepped on broke and got her stuck. Chase panicked and ran past her.

"Chase don't move!" Chilam told him.

He stopped and looked up. He saw the Wendigo from above. He opened his mouth.

"No movement. Not a muscle." Chilam whispered.

Sam and Mike stood still. Jenna tightened her eyes. Chilam was calm and only shut her eyes as a way of excepting her own fate. Chase shook. The Wendigo dropped down and was face to face with Chase. He couldn't make a sound. He froze, which was a good thing. Sam was standing on the same piece of wood for far too long. It was cracking softly, the Wendigo was startled. He crawled to Sam and the others, Chase walked away from them all. Chilam couldn't call out to him. Chase was at the way they were going. He hopped off the tracks, he sprinted at first, but he stopped and heard the Wendigo. He was debating. "Leave them, or Save them. He felt like a dead man either way. He leaves them and risks losing them all, or half. They might kill them due to the Black Totem he looked through, He saves them, he might die to the Wendigo due to the White Totem. Either way, he might be a dead man no matter what he chooses. But suddenly, he thought. "Maybe those aren't the only options. I could prevent both from happening. I just gotta think out the box. But how?" He looked around. He saw barrels of gasoline. He pulled out a lighter.

Meanwhile Sam was face to face with the Wendigo. Chilam slowly reached for either her shotgun or her pistol. One of the two, she didn't care. Sam tightened her eyes and looked away. The Wendigo slowly opened it's mouth, drooling and showing the sharp teeth.

CLANG!CLANG!CLANG!CLANG!CLANG!CLANG!CLANG!CLANG!CLANG!CLANG!

Chase gets the Wendigo's attention by using a knife tapping a barrel. The Wendigo turns and Sam is saved. Just like the Totem they just looked through. Chase runs, The Wendigo sprints on all four to catch Chase. It goes deep down, crawling from the floor to the ceiling like a giant spider in the pipes. It ended up catching a dead end. But no Chase. The Wendigo dropped down.

Splash!

The Wendigo looked down and saw what it stepped on. It smelled the stench. It looked at where it came from, a barrel that said. Flammable. Chase came around the corner and lightened up the lighter in his hand and dropped it at the Wendigo's feet. The Wendigo was burning. It scratched the solid walls and the ceiling. The Wendigo didn't know where to go, because it couldn't see. Chase watched the thing burn. The Wendigo held it's arms in the air and has fallen. Burning. Chase walked away, feeling more safe than ever.

"Is everyone okay." Chase came back at the tracks.

Sam walked over hugging chase. Mike patted him on the back.

"You came back!" Sam said.

"Uh!" Chilam said. "Don't mind me, just stuck on the tracks."

"Let's get you out." Sam said laughing.

"Let me help to." Chase said.

They both pulled her out, they walked to safety.

"Thought you were ditching us." Chilam said.

"No! I wouldn't last on my own." Chase said. Jenna hugged him. Chase patted on her head.

"No time to lose guys!" Mike said. "We need to get to the kids."

"Uh wait!" They all stopped as Chase asked. "Say I were to have left you. What would you have done to me?"

"What? Why are you asking me that?" Chilam asked.

"Wait!" Sam said walking up. "What did you see?"

"Nothing!" Chase went. "I was just asking. If you would've hurt me or not. Can we move on."

"Yeah, we're wasting time, we need to go." Chilam said.

Chase hides something behind his pants. One of Chilams guns he snatched from her after helping her out. Her pistol. After what he saw through that Totem, he can't trust that it's over.

Darwin and Rosie . . .

Darwin and Rosie walk in very Dark Trails. Rosie was walking next to Balto. Gripping his hair tightly, scared. Balto comforted her. Kody and Suka were walking next to them. Rosie smiled and picked Suka up. She carried him. The Four female wolves were behind them.

"How far are we?" Rosy asked.

"Not far." Darwin said. "I don't think."

"It's so dark."

Sierra, one of the wolves felt someone behind her. She kicked her sister Nanuk.

"Ow! What the hell?!" Nanuk went.

"Don't pull on!" Sierra said.

"I didn't Stu- AAAAAAAAAAAAAGGGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!" Nanuk was pulled into the dark. Sierra and the others were startled.

"NANUK!" Sierra said.

"SIS!" Miska called out. "SIS!" She ran but was stopped by Sesi.

"No Miska. They took her. We can't lose you either." Sesi yelled. "We gotta."

"RUN!" Nanuk escaped. "RUN! IT'S COMING!"

SSSSSSSKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKRRRRRRRRRRRREEEEEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAAAACHHHHHHHH!

Darwin grabbed Rosy.

"Come on!" Darwin yelled. Rosy and The wolves followed.

The Four sister wolves were ahead. Balto and Kody pulling the kids to get them out.

"I see a light!" Darwin yelled. He pulled Rosy. She couldn't keep up. Rosy tripped. But as she did, she saw what was behind her. The light shined, a Polar bear Wendigo face roared into her face with it's milky eyes and sharp teeth. It was even muscular. Rosy screamed the hardest she has ever screamed.

RRRRRRRRRRRRRROOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!

"AAAAAAAAAAAAGGGGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!"

The Polar bear creature thing raised his fists to crush Rosy, but Balto pulled her back. The Fist landed on the ground and shook the trail.

Darwin found the light. The Wolves were trying to break it open. He rammed into it and broke though. Darwin was pulled by the wolves, and saw at least the deepest way down a mountain. Darwin looked to his right and saw a safe way for them to get to safety. He walked down and he was safe from the beast. All four of the wolves were jumped over and were safe. Kody jumped over and was safe as well. Now they had to wait for Rosie, Balto and Suka. Rosy had Suka in her arms, she walked to the side to get to safety. Balto jumped over, but was slipping because of the snow. A wolf grabbed him. But not just any wolf.

"Kesuk!" The Girls went.

"I got you Balto!" Kesuk pulled him.

"Balto!" Boris hugged him.

Rosy grabbed Darwins hand. He pulled her to safety and The were all finally safe. Rosy hugged Darwin.

"Thank you!" Rosy hugged him tight, Darwin hugged her as well.

"Kesuk!" Sesi hugged him, so did her sisters. Kesuk hugged his pack.

"Balto, I was looking for you everywhere!" Boris said.

"I know, I can't believe you're here." Balto said.

RRRRRROOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRR!

The Wendigo bear came out.

"Oh god!" Balto said.

"Is that?" Boris dropped a tear. "Ball of fluff."

Luk came out as a Wendigo. Balto and Boris let out tears. Suka had a jaw dropped. Kody tightened his eyes looking away. Of course, Rosy, Darwin, and the rest of the wolves didn't know the bear. Which made them ask.

"What do we do?" Darwin asked.

The Wendigo was going to attack them. Balto couldn't help but mourn. But Boris looked how the kids, and the wolves were afraid. Boris looked at Luk. He sighed shutting his eyes.

"Balto." Boris looked at him.

"What?"

"I love you."

"What?!"

Boris ran and jumped at Luks face blinding him. Causing him to swing his arms around.

"Boris!" Balto and Kody yelled.

Boris was poking his eyes and trying to make him fall down to the deep end of the mountain. The Wendigo started to fall trying to regain ballance. Boris was in the air looking at everyone. he smiled, the polar bear landed his paw on Boris and his feather flew in the air.

The Wendigo Luk fell down. With Boris.

Balto ran to the edge.

"Boris!" Balto yelled. "BORIS!"

He didn't hear a response. Balto laid on the ground crying. The others were silent.

To be continued . . .
