Do you think that Nikki, Kaltag and Star are somewhat afriad of being around Steele 'cause he likes to bully others to get what he wants? Like when Balto over threw Steele for leadership of the team to take the medicine back, Star puts the harness in his mouth to give to Balto. Balto accepts his kidness but also beign respected as the new leader of the team.

Kaltag alwasy seems to switch sides too. I think at first he really was on Steele's side but after Balto overthrew Steele, he starts cheering for Balto like when he caught the medicine from falling off the cliff from Steele trying to make him loose track of where he was going. Kaltag actually cheered! He says 'That was the most amazing, phoneminal....'He was about to say but then Star says 'Thats good!' Kaltag pushes Star to the ground after that.

But Nikki on the other hand, I think he remained on Steele's side. Even though he did somewhat cheer with Kaltag and Star, I still say he is still on Steele's side since he wasn't excited about Balto becoming the new leader. Kaltag at first didnt like Balto being the new leader either but he quickly accepted his leadership. But I truly think that Nikki remains very loyal to Steele, he just didnt want to feel left out that Kaltag  and Star was cheering him.

Please tell me what you think, but I jsut had to get this off my chest. I hope nobody ever did an article like this I might post pics later to to show you what I think....

I think Kaltag actually sat on Star's head after he said "That's good."

personally I think they are afraid that Steele might hurt them if they didn't do what Steele wanted to see. As for Nikki, He said yes when Kaltag said bad things about Steele in his back. I think it's about that all of the trio hates Steele. 2 of them accepted Balto almost immediately. Nikki took longer time to accept Balto.

Pretty good article. And I noticed when I first saw the movie that Steele's team did talk a bit about him behind his back right after the "half-wolf in the side pocket" part.

I never really thought of that. And maybe Nikki is afraid too, and thats why he stayed "loyal"-so if Steele came back, he won't get hurt or any thing. well basicly I think your right.

I think that you have a pretty decent point. I mean, I think that Kaltag was "switching sides" for the same reaosn that Nikki stayed on Steeles' side: he was faraid of getting hurt if Steele came back. But after they all realized that he was gone for good, they liked Balto. Good job

I don't think that Nikki Kaltag and Star ever really liked Steele. Remember the part after the scene in the alley? After steele walks away, nikki says: that son of a-- and then kaltag calls steele malitious, obnoxious, disgusting, repulsive, ect. and star says: he's no lap dog! but they're still friends with him. idk why though.

Oh yeah they are

I agree with DT, Steele's team was talk behind his back. That brown one (Nikki? I thought he was Kaltag at first) nearly says a swear word!

Yeah, you're pretty much right about that. In the movie, they obviously followed Steele around at the beginning, but later on you see that the three of them don't actually like Steele at all. After they're done kicking snow at Balto and Borris, the three of them start talking trash about Steele after he leaves. They only hung around him to be "cool." On the other hand, it was true that both Nikki and Kaltag didn't like Balto either because of his half-wolf quality. Star, I don't think really cared about Balot's origion. He was just following the in-crowd. After Balto overthrows Steele, however, the three of them do warm up to him.
