Chapter 16: The Fridge
Darwin . . . 2:00 A.M. (5 Hours Until Dawn.)
The Winds blew harder and harder by the minute. Darwin and Rosy sitting next to each other, the four sister wolves, kesuk, Kodiak, and Balto keeping them warm with their pelts. Balto suggested it. The last thing Balto want's is for them to catch a cold. Say they were to catch a cold, what than? No medicine to help them, and Rosy (Balto knows.) Doesn't want to go through another sickness like that ever again.
Suka wasn't in the pile. Balto looked over and saw him sitting at the edge of the cliff looking down where Boris and The Wendigo fell. Balto got out of the pile to talk to him.
"It's my fault." Suka said with his head down.
"No, it's not." Balto reassured. "You know it isn't."
Suka sighed. Balto placed a paw on him and pulled him away from the edge. He took him over to the pile of wolves. And Kodiak. Suka laid next to Kody. Balto laid next to him to keep him warm. Even if Suka's pelt was strong enough to keep him warm, Balto still wanted to speak to him, somewhere warm.
"Suka?" Balto started. "Listen, I know it's hard. It's hard on me. But you can't let it get to you so much."
"Just let it go kid." Sesi said. Suka looked at her. She showed a little sympathy. "Let it go."
Suka laid his head on Balto. Balto smiled, happy to see him here.
"Dad?" Kody got his attention. "What do we do? We can't stay out here in the winter."
"Exactly!" Kesuk said. "Now that the thing is out. Maybe we can continue in there on the trail. Out here leads no where. In there has to take us to the exit."
"We got to find answers first." Balto said.
"What?"
"Suka was Cursed here. If we find out what it is and how to get rid of it. We just might be able to get out of here and stop all of this."
"Suka is cursed?" Kesuk asked.
"Yes, sorry I kept it to myself. But I didn't want any of you to think this changes anything." Balto said.
"No, if he is cursed. Than, do you think that is why the Wendigo's are here?"
"There has to be a good reason. I won't blame any of you if you don't want to come. But, I need to know."
Kesuk looked at the girls. The Girls nodded. Kody looked at his father, he nodded as well. He looked down to Suka and he smiled.
"Alright. Let's all go in there!" Balto said.
Later than. Balto jumped back over to the trail. He looked, left and right.
"Is it safe boy?" Rosy asked. Balto sniffed nothing. He moved his head to signal that it was safe.
As the wolves were jumping over, and the kids were moving to the sides. Suka looked and saw something in the snow. Kody followed him. Another Totem. It was Yellow. Suka and Kody were going to take a look at it. Suka flipped it.
Yellow Totem 2 of 4 . . .
Kody was about to eat a piece of meat. Suka pulled him away from it and shook his head, NO. Kody nodded his head in agreement and avoided eating the meat from the fridge.
Present . . .
Suka and Kody backed away from the Totem.
"What does that mean?" Kody asked him. "Why in the Totem, did you stop me from eating? Was it poisoned?"
"I don't know." Suka said.
"Kody! Suka!" Kesuk called to them. "We don't have all day come on!"
"Coming!" Kody said. They both followed.
Chilam . . .
Sam was continuing down the trail, but it seems like a different route from what the kids took. Maybe they ended up in a different area. Remember, the kids took the cart that took them down farther, and Sam and the others took a shorter, safer way. So, they must be in different locations.
"Look!" Mike said pointing. He saw down ahead a light.
"Darwin!" Sam yelled.
"SHH!" Chilam said. "You don't know what the hell that is."
Chilam pulled out her shotgun, the one with incendiary ammo. The stuff that'll burn The Wendigo's. Chilam stepped on something. A Totem. A Black Totem. She picked it up.
"Keep going!" Mike said. Chilam put the Totem in her bag. They walked in a room that looked like a kitchen. "What is this? Some kind of kitchen?"
"That's weird. I think this is some kind of supply room." Sam said.
"Oh Well! Let's see if they have food!" Chase rushed over to the fridge. He opens a container. "Chicken!" he chows down. Chilam and Sam roll their eyes. "I'm not eating it all, theirs a bunch more in here for you guys to." Sam looks around.
"It's just wierd. Why is there a kitchen with a working fridge of food here, In The Mountains, in some Mind Shafts." Sam kept wondering.
"Something isn't right." Chilam said. Jenna looked through a cabnet and found another Totem.
"You found a Totem girl, bring it here." Mike said. The Girls came over.
"Chase, come." Chilam said. Chase walked over and they all saw through it. The Totem was Brown.
Brown Totem 3 of 4. . . .
Kody drops the container he got from the fridge and he turns to the pack, showing his Wendigo form.
SSSSSSSSKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKRRRRRRRRRRRRRRREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAACCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!
Present . . .
Mike dropped the Totem. Jenna was speechless and couldn't move, seeing her son on there. The Rest looked in Chases hand. Chase was shaking.
"Oh God!" Chase dropped the container and threw up, he stuck his finger down his throat to throw it all up. "That stuff, what does that do! Does that make you turn?! Is that gonna make me turn?!"
"Calm down Chase!" Sam said.
"It's flesh." Chilam said pulling apart the meat. "You ate human flesh." She looks at him with a deep dark stare.
"What does that mean." Chase said.
"Resort to cannibalism, the spirit will be unleashed. Not just any spirit, if you know what I'm talking about." Chilam explained.
"Oh Shit! Not again!" Mike said with his hands on his head.
"No I . . . Maybe that's just a myth. Sam come here." Chase told her. She came. "Look at me. Am I breaking out? Do I have fangs? Eyes turning red? Am I taller?"
"No." Sam said looking him over.
"I look okay?"
"You don't look different." Sam said.
"Sigh" Chase went. "Than it's okay right? I through it all up, so nothing should . . ."
Chilam cocks her shotgun and points it at Chase. Chase than reacts quickly and pulls his own gun out. Chilam recognizes the gun and she feels her holster and sighs.
"You dick." Chilam. pointed.
"Back off. Or I'll shoot." Chase panicked. "I'll do it."
"No you wont." Chilam calling bluff.
"Yes I will. You killed when I looked at the Totem. Without hesitation." Chase said out loud.
As Sam heard Chases confession. She put so much together. She paused. She's got it.
"Than I have no problem shooting you twice." Chilam said.
"Wait!" Sam got in the middle holding both her hands out to Chilam and Chase. "Don't you see what it is? The Totems?"
Chilam and Chase heard her out.
"All those times that we should have been dead. It should have happened to us a long time ago. The hints given. Deaths. Dangers. Guidance. Whatever they are. They're helping us out." Sam begged. "Please don't shoot each other. Just put them down and listen to me!"
Chilam looked at Chase. Chase was scared.
"You're right." Chilam lowered the gun. Chase was shocked, but he lowered his as well. He gave the pistol back. "No. Hold on to it. Smart how you snatched it from me. You've earned it. But, if it comes. Make sure you have it on you. The Wendigo's won't die from it. But it will slow it down."
"Thank you." Chase kept it on. "If I do turn. Please! Put me down! Before it happens! I don't wanna turn!"
"No hesitation." Chilam said with a smirk. "Oh, while we are at it. Let's see through this Totem I picked up when we got here."
Only Sam and Chase look through it. Mike and Jenna hang out.
Black Totem 3 of 4 . . .
The Wendigo find Sam, Chilam, Chase, Mike, and Jenna. They run panicking as they are dying in the room where the fridge is.
Present . . .
"Oh Shit!" Chilam said.
"What?" Mike asked.
"We gotta run!" Chase ran off by himself.
"Chase!" Sam yelled.
"Don't move!" Chilam said.
Sam, Chilam, Mike and Jenna stood still.
"No one run." Mike whispered.
The Wendigo was crawling on the ceiling. Another to the wall.
"AAAAAAGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHH!" Chase yelled. The Wendigo's followed the screams. As they left.
"Go!" Chilam said. They followed where Chase ran. Chase was running in the dark.
"God help!" Chase said.
"GET DOWN!" A Pyromaniac blew his flamethrower at the Wendigo burning it's Body. The Gang caught up and saw.
"Get on the ground." More of them came out and pointed shotguns at Chilam and the others. Light shined. Chilam saw the man. An Old Friend of hers.
"You." Chilam said. The man raised his Shotgun and knocked her out. She Blacked out.
