Hello again. Sorry for the wait. Well, here's the next chapter. Hope you enjoy.

Sora had been woken up by the bright sun. He looked around the Old Mill, only to see that Balto and Jenna were the only ones inside.

"Good morning, Sora." Jenna said.

"Good morning." Sora said, "Where's everybody else?"

"They left." Balto said, "They have to go and deliver mail."

"Oh yeah." Sora said, "Dogs transport the mail to different towns by sleigh, right?"

"That's right." Balto said, "Come on, we can say good-bye to them before they leave."

Sora followed Balto and Jenna to the post office. There, he saw Kodi, Dusty, Ralph, Kirby and other dogs strapped to a sleigh.

"Hey, Sora." Dusty said when she saw him.

"Hey guys, so this is what a dog-sled is suppose to be." Sora said.

"You bet, now you're going to see how fast we can go." Kodi said proudly.

The musher was tying the mail down to his sleigh when he spotted Sora.

"Hello." He said to Sora.

Sora looked at him.

"Hi." Sora replied.

"You must be the kid that scared those wolves away last night."

"Yeah, that's me. My name's Sora."

"I'm Charlie." The Musher said, holding out his hand.

Sora shook it.

"So, what are you doing here, Sora?" Charlie asked.

"I just wanted to see your dog-sled team." Sora said, "They seemed really capable."

"Yeah, they're the best dog-sled team in Nome." Charlie said proudly.

"Yeah, Kodi, Dusty, Ralph, and Kirby seem like they can handle anything." Sora said.

"How do you know my team's names?" Charlie asked.

Sora stopped. He just realized that he was the only one that can talk and understand the dogs in Nome.

"Uh…I heard a lot of people saying their names." Sora said, laughing a little.

Charlie seemed suspicious but he bought it.

"Yeah, that must be it." He said, "Well, I better tie the rest of the mail. Nice meeting you, Sora."

"Nice meeting you, Charlie." Sora said.

When Charlie left, everyone let out a sigh of relief.

"That was close." Sora said.

"No kidding." Balto said.

"So dad, you and Sora are gonna search for Nava?" Kodi asked.

"Yes, we are." Balto said, "I just wanted to see you before you leave. I don't know how long we'll be out there."

"Just come back in one piece." Kodi said.

Balto nodded.

"When you come back, you can tell me your amazing stories out there." Kodi said.

"I'll be looking forward to that, son." Balto said.

Kodi smiled. Charlie was finished tying all the mail to the sleigh. Jenna licked Kodi good-bye. Sora rubbed Kodi's head and whispered: Good luck out there.

Thanks Sora. Kodi whispered back.

"Mush!" shouted Charlie.

The dog-sled team started running, pulling the heavy sleigh. Sora waved good-bye to Charlie and to the dogs until they too far to be seen.

"So, I guess we can leave now." Sora said to Balto and Jenna.

Before any of them can reply, someone shouted: Mom, Dad, there he is! It's Sora! He's with Balto and Jenna!

The little girl from last night ran up to Sora, along with her mother and father.

"Hi there." Sora said.

"Hi Sora, we were worried about you." said the little girl, "We thought those dark wolves have gotten you and Balto."

"Oh no, we're both fine." Sora said, "We manage to drive those Heart—I mean dark wolves out of town."

"Well, that was very brave of you, Sora." said the father.

"Would you like to join us for some breakfast as our thanks to you?" asked the little girl.

"Sure." Sora said.

"Oh, I don't think you know my name yet. My name is Rosy.

"Well, nice to meet you, Rosy." Sora said.

"Nice to meet you too, Sora." Rosy said.

Sora followed Rosy and her parents to their house. Jenna was next to Rosy, barking happily, Rosy giggled. Sora whispered to Balto.

"Is she the little girl that you saved?"

"Yeah." Balto whispered back, "She was the first human to trust me."

When they got to the house, Rosy's mother fed them oat-meal and some coco. Sora thought that this was the best oat-meal he ever had.

"So Sora, when did you see Balto and Jenna?" asked the father.

Balto and Jenna were lying in a basket next to the warm ferniest.

"Oh, last night." Sora replied, "It was cold outside, so I went to the Old Mill and that's where they were. They were very nice dogs. They didn't mind me staying there."

"Well that's Balto and Jenna alright." Rosy said proudly, "They are the greatest dogs you'll ever meet."

Sora smiled.

"Yeah, especially Balto." said the father, "He saved Nome from that inferno disease, a long time ago."

"Oh yeah, I've heard of the story." Sora said, "That was very brave of him, risking his life to save the children of Nome. He's really amazing."

Balto grinned when he heard that.

Sora finished his breakfast.

"Well, that was an excellent breakfast." He said, "Thanks."

"You're leaving?" Rosy asked.

"Yeah, I've got something very important to do." Sora said.

"Well, good luck to whatever it is." Rosy's father said, shaking Sora's hand.

After saying good-bye to Rosy and her family, Sora waited outside until Balto and Jenna came out.

"I guess you two we'll be going then?" Jenna asked.

"Yeah, I'll try not to stay out too long." Balto said.

He and Jenna licked each other's face.

"I love you." Balto said.

"I love you too, bye." Jenna said.

When they stopped, Sora petted Jenna.

"Bye Jenna." He said.

"Bye Sora, it was great meeting you. Could you do me favor? Look after Balto for me? I'm afraid he might get hurt if he runs into the Heartless."

Sora smiled and nodded. Then Him and Balto left.
