User blog:007Jamesdean/The Treacherous Cold

Lily was is the Simulator and she was wearing a fur parka.

Me, Varie, Lori, Lana & Lola, Laney and Lisa were in the Control room.

The Simulator activated and Lily found herself in the cold of Alaska.

Lily: I'm in Nome, Alaska.

Lily had a thermometer device on her arm and it said the temperature was -35 degrees.

Lily: 35 below. That's cold.

Lily walked around and saw that no one was on the streets.

She saw the local hospital and went in. Lily saw lots of children that were extremely sick and near the verge of death.

Lily: Oh man. I'm in the 1925 Diphtheria Epidemic. Good thing I've had a Diphtheria shot.

Lily went back outside and saw the famous wolf dog Balto.

Lily: Balto?

Balto: Yeah.

Lily: My name is Lily Loud and I want to do everything I can to help the children.

Balto: I had a feeling you would. Lets go.

Balto and Lily set out to find the lost sled dog team with the medicine for the children. The hospital urgently requested more Diphtheria Antitoxin from Anchorage, Alaska. They tried to send it by sea but pack ice from the Bering Sea came in and made that impossible. They tried delivering it by plane but Blizzards and Whiteout conditions made visibility zero and grounded all planes until conditions improve. The antitoxin was shipped by rail from Anchorage to Nenana, 550 miles away from Anchorage. The Sled Dog team that was sent from Nome to Nenana had to deliver it back from Nenana, 550 miles away from Nome and 550 miles back. The Sled Dog team was 100 miles away from Nome.

They walked over lots of snow and ice. The temperature was dropping the further they went.

Balto sniffed their scent.

Balto: Come on Lily. Steele and his team passed this way.

Lily: We've got to hurry.

As Balto and Lily kept going they went through blowing snow and extreme cold.

The eventually found the lost sled dog team at the bottom of an ice hill.

Lily: There they are.

Lily and Balto slid down the hill and the dogs saw them.

Star: Balto!

Nikki: Is that?

Kaltag: Balto, how did you find us and who is she?

Balto: Is anyone hurt?

Star: We're all okay but our musher hit his head and he didn't get up.

Kaltag: And he's not moving.

Lily: Oh man. I'm Lily Loud and we came to help you.

Balto: Where's Steele?

Ronul: He abandoned us.

Nikki: Steele is a traitor!

Balto: Typical. All right lets load up. Lily you be Musher.

Lily: Okay. I'll try.

Balto, Kaltag and Star load the musher onto the sled and Balto was lead dog.

Lily checked for a pulse on the musher and he was still alive.

Lily: Balto, being part wolf may have been a weakness for some. But for you it's a great gift.

Balto: Why do you say that, Lily?

Lily: Because you have the power and the strength to help and become a great inspiration. You can do it Balto. I believe in you. All you have to do is believe in yourself.

Balto then began to realize that being part wolf is not a weakness but a powerful strength.

Lily: Ready Balto?

Balto: Ready.

Lily: What about the rest of you?

All: Ready.

Lily: All right. Mush!

And off they went. They were braving the treacherous conditions of the Alaskan wilderness. The temperature was -50 degrees, whiteout conditions and blizzards almost made it impossible to see ahead of them, the wind chill was -85 degrees and it was cold.

They entered a forest and saw numerous scratch marks were in the trees.

Star: There's marks all over the trees.

Lily: It must be Steele. He's trying to throw us off the trail.

Balto was sniffing the air and he found the right road and pointed with his ear to the west northwest.

Balto: This way.

Lily: Mush!

They went on and they had to cross over the Rocky Mountains.

They crossed over an ice bridge and Lily heard the bridge cracking.

Lily: Uh oh! The bridge is cracking! Mush!

They ran and got off the bridge just in time as it fell apart.

Balto: Whew! That was a close one. Good call Lily.

Lily: Thanks guys. Lets keep going.

As they kept on going Balto accidentally tickled Star's nose and Star sneezed.

Kaltag: Gesundheit.

The sneeze triggered an avalanche of snow on a nearby mountain and Lily saw it coming.

Lily: Avalanche! Mush!

They all ran and the avalanche was closing in and Balto saw a cave entrance and they went inside it.

As they went deeper and deeper into the cave they saw that it was a big ice cave.

Lily: Wow. What an ice cave.

Balto: It truely is a beautiful sight.

Nikki: Yeah.

As they walked on a drop of water landed on Balto's head and saw that the icicles on the ceiling looked like they could fall with the slightest of noise.

Balto: Shh!

Lily: (Whispering) We have to stay quiet.

They went deeper into the Ice Cave and Lily was walking beside the sled.

The sled then made a thump as it landed off a step and it made an icicle fall and it hit the arch in the sled.

The ceiling was about to fall.

Balto: Mush!

Lily grabbed hold of the sled and got on as they ran and icicles fell and Lily used her Water Powers to swat away falling icicles from the sled and medicine.

They saw the exit and a bunch of icicles broke off and they got out just in time.

Back in Nome, everyone thought that the medicine wouldn't get there and hope was lost. Until Balto started howling.

Lily and the team came over the hill and they saw Nome up ahead and someone had created an artificial Aurora Borealis to be used as a signal beacon.

Lily: There it is. Hang on Children! We're almost there!

Balto: Jenna.

The lantern at the telegraph station was lit and all the lights in the town came on and all the townsfolk came to the track and cheered wildly as Lily and the team came in and parked in front of the hospital.

Doctor Curtis Welch came out and saw Lily on the sled.

Dr. Welch: Thank you. Thank you so much miss?

Lily: My name is Lily Loud and you must be the doctor.

Dr. Welch: Yes I am. Lily. You, Balto and the Sled dogs have saved us all.

Lily: We did what we had to do for Nome.

20 minutes later, the Antitoxin was administered to the children and a man came out.

?: Lily, Balto?

Lily: Yes?

?: I'm Rosy's dad. She wants to see you both.

He took them both into the hospital and Rosy just woke up.

Rosy: Mommy?

Rosy's mom: Rosy darling.

Rosy: I fell asleep.

Rosy's mom explained what happened and Lily was invited over.

Rosy: Are you Lily?

Lily: Yes I am.

Lily sat on Rosy's bed and Rosy hugged her.

Balto got Rosy's musher hat and brought it over to her.

Rosy saw Balto.

Rosy: Balto. I'd be lost without both of you.

Lily: I'm so glad that you're okay Rosy. We had to do what we had to do.

Rosy was so happy.

At the White House, President Calvin Coolidge awarded Lily and Balto the Congressional Gold Medal for their heroic deed in saving all of Nome from total destruction. Even though wasn't made an official state until 1959, it was still part of the US Territories.

In a local newspaper in Washington D.C. Lily saw her in the paper and purchased one.

A vortex appeared and she left and the exercise ended.

At dinner Lily revealed everything that went down and Lynn Sr. and Rita were so proud of Lily. Lily was sitting by the fireplace warming up.

Lynn Sr.: Boy I'm so proud of you Lily.

Lily: [Shivering] I h-h-had to do w-w-w-what I had to d-d-do dad. I'm so cold.

Rita: Alaska gets really cold during the winter. But you were very brave out there.

Lily: I know m-m-mom.

I walk over and put 2 blankets on her and give her a cup of hot cocoa.

Lily: Thanks J.D.

Me: No problem Lily.

Lily was shivering and really cold. But Lily is a true hero.

THE END.

Another Fanfiction Done.

I've loved the movie Balto since I was a kid. It literally was truely a masterpiece. I love Siberian Huskies, Alaskan Malamutes and Wolves. Alaska is an amazing state. I also love the Iditarod Dog Sled Races. They race 1100 miles from Anchorage to Nenana to Nome and it is truely a magnificent wonder. I brought the idea of commemorating the 1925 Serum Run and the Iditarod Races to Skycliff where I go with my friends. It is so cool.

See you next time.

Balto from 1995 is owned by Universal Pictures, Amblin Entertainment and Amblimation and Steve Hickner.
