Summary
Normally, trekking across the tundra was something that Bato and Hakoda did with Hakoda’s father Silak as a guide. But Silak was still in recovery from a hunting accident three weeks prior, and the whole village waited in anticipation of the coming storm. The sky had gone completely gray, and it wouldn’t be long before the small flurries that were falling now would turn to much larger flakes and howling winds that would shroud the village in a thick white blanket. As a result, Bato, Kya, and Hakoda were now anxiously standing outside Kanna’s igloo, with one measly pile of sticks between them.”
“Remember, we were just gathering firewood like normal-”
“Uh-huh-”
“When we got attacked by a- um, you know- a polar bear dog-”
“But we didn’t get attacked by a polar bear dog,” said Bato matter- of -factly.
“Oh for Tui’s sake Bato you think we don’t know that? The point is that we definitely didn’t get lost trying to find Old Man Kiviuk’s magic bola.” Hakoda crossed his arms, looking back and forth between Bato and Kya. If it even existed.A 12 year old Hakoda meets his future teenage friend group and witnesses the birth of Bato's little sister. Oneshot.
