AGAIN I DO NOT OWN BALTO!

The bright morning light woke the wolf dog from his sleep. Jenna was still asleep beside him. " After the years we've been together she still looks beautiful..." he said to himself.

He stretched then quietly left the boat. Muk,Luk, and Boris were still asleep too.

All the years were already gone! His children were grown and no more mushing. He sighed as he seen his life go by.

"Balto?" a tired soft voice spoke before. "Morning Jenna!" he said. "I guess I should get home. I stayed here all night! Rosy may be grown but she still worries about me." said Jenna.

She was about to leave until he saw a sad faced Balto. "Balto? What's wrong?" she came back to him. he sighed and said "I'm just thinking about how fast life passed and I feel kind of old and useless."

Jenna looked at him and said "Useless? Balto you saved a town! Found a home for your daughter, saved two humans and taught your son the meaning of life. You are at the prime of your life no matter how young or old you are!"

He couldn't help but smile for what she said made him feel a whole lot better. He kissed his mate. She nuzzled him and he did back.

"That mutt! All those years with Jenna should've been MINE! said a black and white dog said near a fence. His hate was still in his youth unlike himself but he was still strong. He thought of one final plan to get back Jenna.

Jenna went back to Rosy's and Balto Went to see Duke who lets him stay there in his house anytime he wanted after he saved his life.

He was about to live until he saw Balto. "Hey boy! Wanna come with me on a delivery?" he asked. Balto jumped on him then licked his face." Well I guess that's a 'yes' huh?" he said.

Jenna was in Rosy's house. she finally old enough to buy her own house. "Jenna there you are! I bet you've been out with Balto?" she said as Jenna blushed.

"Well I got to go to work. Take care Jenna!" she said in a hurry.

Jenna was about to visit her friends until she heard a cold voice. "Hello Jenna! said a dark cold breath. "Steele!" she said with fear. "What are you doing here? I thought we banished you!" she said.

"Well surprise!"Steele said with a smile. "Balto and I will rip you to shreds if you cause any trouble for anybody!" she growled. "Jenna has a temper huh? But that's what I like-nay love about you!" he said to her chuckling.

"Get out now Steele! No one wants you around! she said. "Now Jenna that's exactly what I want to talk to you about!" said Steele.

"What lies are you spreading know?!" she shouted. He calmly says " Little... I mean big Rosy is on her own kids that you had with that mutt are grown and even that wolf dog has begun to ignore you." she stared at him.

"Do you even have a reason to stay here? With me you will never be ignored. I promise you Jenna! This if my final offer!" he said before finally running away.

Jenna looked to the ground. "Jenna!" said a hyper Dixie with a tired Slyvie walking behind her. "You okay?"asked Sylvie.

Her voice snapped Jenna out of her thoughts."Huh? Yeah I'm fine!" she said as she walked with them.

After Jenna spent time with her friends she went to see Balto in the afternoon since Rosey doesn't get off work until later that night.

She searched all over the bout but no luck."Where is he?" she asked herself. " He went with Duke for a delivery. I vought he told vou.." said Boris yawning after his long nap.

"No he didn't tell me anything. This isn't the first time he did this to me. He knows I get nervous when he rides that flying thing!"

"vhy are vou so angery Jenna?" Boris asked. Jenn sighed and said "nothing!" "Vt doesn't sound vike nothing.." he said to her.

"Its Steele! He's back!"she said. "Vhat! Vhen? how?" Boris had chills on his spine just sounding his name.

"This morning!" she said. "Vhat did he vant?" he asked. "I can't tell him it might worry him. but..'' she thought then " He of course wanted me to go with him!"she said quietly. "Vell of course your're not considering his offer vright ?" he asked but before he got a answer Balto came running to Boris.

"Balto I need to talk to about-" Balto cut Jenna off. "Not now Jenna about to go with Duke. I'll be back in two days." he said before he ran off. "But BALTO!" she screamed but he was gone. Jenna was furious! He doesn't even speak to me. Off on his grand days of adventure! Perfect!" she stormed off to Rosey's. "Jenna wait!"

"Perfect! While the wolfdog is gone Jenna will be all mine!" said Steele from the shadows.

Jenna was in Rosey's bed crying. Rosey was working overtime. Its the only reason why she was there at 8:00 at night. Her kids her human, and even her mate was tired of her! Even if most of what Steele said was true she could never be happy with him after what he did to Balto. " Jenna! Have you made your choice yet?" Its Steele!

"Balto! Oi! Balto! " screamed Boris as he saw Balto running through the streets."Not now Boris I got a-" "Yes vow! Jenna needs you now!" Balto stop when he heard Jenna's name! "What do you mean Boris?!" he asked.

"Don't vo away so vuch Jenna visses you!" said Boris."She knows I'm busy!"said Balto.

"So vusy you van't take time to have fun with your mate? sad!" said Boris leaving Balto to his thoughts. "Jenna..."

"Come on out Jenna! This is you last offer! yelled Steele. Jenna went to the door an thought "what should I do? I love Balto But he hasn't have time for me and Rosy too but.."

Pow! Pow! Steele banged the door."Tell me now! Yes or no Jenna!"
