Chapter I: Race and First Appearances
Nome, Territory of Alaska
January 19th, 1925
As the three-mile marker goes off into the air, a brownish-gray wolf-dog, known to Nome as Balto, is holding his friend and adoptive father, Boris, in his mouth, which of course is causing Boris to say; "Balto, get your slobbery mouth off me!" Balto lets him go, then says; "Come on. Let's go, Boris. We can cut around the back and catch the end of the race."
Balto's words cause Boris to protest, saying that, "Oh, no. No, no, no, no, no, no. I'm a delicate country bird." Whining, "I hate going into town." Balto then responds, excitedly, "Ah, come on. What's the worst that can happen?" This causes a blue-and-white wolf-dog, to state in shock; "Balto, did you just really jinx things?!"
"Oh come on Korrus, it can't be that bad." Balto replies to Korrus. Korrus is a wolf-dog like Balto, but thing is, he is also Balto's brother. Boris, in his usual manner as Korrus and Balto have experienced in the past, is screaming and muttering, "Bleh, why do I let you two talk me into these things? Aye! AAAAH!" He falls into a window that was open, squawking, then ends up on a moose antler, then spots some meat hanging from the roof. A butcher, then grabs him.
"Uh oh, Boris needs rescuing." Said Korrus, then the blue-white wolf-dog moves in quick succession, grabbing Boris and pretty much saving Boris from death. "Bring that back, you thieves!" Boris then asks, "You, are putting me down now, right, Korrus?" Chuckling, Balto replying humorously, "Whatever you say, Boris." Sighing, the goose telling the two wolf-dogs that, "Every time there's a race, you two run around like as if you're in it!"
Balto replied; "Maybe one day I will be… Korrus though, has repeatedly said he is not joining any race teams." Korrus then laughed, "Of course I'm not, brother, because I'm more focused towards Policing!" The goose looks at the blue-white wolf-dog, then says; "The Alaska Territory Troopers again? I know the reasons why, but couldn't you just wait another year? And you two, heel, I AM NOT A SPRING CHICKEN OR A PENGUIN! I mean, it's freezing out here!"
A gunshot rings out, prompting a Territory Trooper in the town to yell; "Two mile marker!" This of course results in applause, as the crowd is excited to see who wins. Balto tells his brother and Boris to follow. "Come on. We don't want to miss the finish." Boris then sarcastically states; "Oh that would be a 'tragedy'!" Screaming as the two wolf-dogs run past him, resulting in the goose to be in snow, flatly stating; "I was being sarcastic."
Nome Workshop, 2nd Street
A man, Mr Johannssen, chuckles as he unveils a sled to a family from the mainland US.
The Father thanks the man happily; "Mr. Johanssen, the sled is beautiful." His wife then adds, "We're very grateful." While the girl, known as Rosy, excitedly thanks the man as well; "Oh thank you, thank you! I love these rudders! I love this brushbow! I love this sled! Jenna, Jana! You're lead dogs!"
Laughing, the father says, "Heh, Rosy's grateful too, huh?" Johannsen replying "Yeah, so I gather."
Rosy said excitedly, laughing again, "Thank you!" which of course elects chuckles from the adults. "Watch this!" She calls out to her parents.
"Coming sweetheart!" Her mother says. "I don't know, honey. I think we should've gotten her the dollhouse." The father says thoughtfully to his wife.
Another gunshot rings out, resulting in Rosy calling out an order to her two dogs, a red-white Siberian Husky with a red bandana named Jenna and a black-white Siberian Husky with a blue bandana named Jana; "It's the one-mile marker! Mush, you two, mush! Let's win this race! Whoo-hoo!"
Rosy's mother then says; "I think she'll learn to like it."
Main Street, Location of January 19th 1925 Nome Dog Race
Rosy calls out to her dogs, "Jenna, Jana, easy girls. Whoa!" A random boy in the background states, "Dad I'm cold…" Two dogs, Dixie and Sylvie, approach the two Siberian sisters, Dixie greeting them. "Good morning, Jenna and Jana. Oughta be a close race, don't ya think? Maybe even neck and neck!" Sylvie states flatly to the two Siberian sisters; "Say something about her new collar before she gets whiplash." Obeying, Jenna asks Dixie; "Uh Dixie, what a pretty collar, is it new?"
Dixie, looks at said collar, and says, "What? This old thing? Yeah, do you think, um, Steele will notice?" Jana replies to Dixie on her opinion on Steele noticing anything; "I'm afraid the only way that Steele notices anything at all is if they're wearing a mirror." Cheering erupts as Steele's team comes around the corner, panting all the way, passing by some female dogs who swoon at the sight of Steele, Steele of course, takes it in stride with overdone pride, while people say things like, "Come on, Steele!" or, "You can do it!" and so on.
Rosy and her dogs stop a few feet away from the Finish line, ordering the two; "Stay, you two!" as cheering for Steele's team continues like as if Alaska had achieved statehood somehow. Rosy then cheers Steele on, "Come on, Steele!" … Only for her hat to be blown away by the wind. "Oh, no!" In the distance, Balto sees the hat fly and then land in the middle of the designated Race route on Main Street, with Rosy crying out, "My hat!" and tried to go for it, only to be restrained by Jenna.
Balto then looks at the hat, then at Steele's team, then in a split second, goes to get the hat, resulting in one member of the crowd watching the race to say, "Get that Stray Dog!" while another says, "He's gonna ruin the race!"
Boris then chooses this time to appear, muttering a bit before seeing Balto in the race, resulting in him screaming in shock.
Barking, Steele's team comes side to side with Balto, with Steele grunting and snarling, saying, "Outta my way, lobo-brain!" Balto ignores it and speeds up ahead of the team, and grabs the hat and moves immediately off the race route, resulting in Jenna (Presumably) gasping.
Boris sees this as Korrus arrives by his side, with Boris shrieking; "WHEN WILL YOU LEARN TO STAY ON THE SIDELINES?!"
A sled goes by, covering the two in snow, with Korrus shaking off the snow off him, saying; "Uh… I don't think he will ever learn that. I mean, we've known each other since puppyhood!"
"… Good point." Boris sighs the reply.
