One day a pack of hungry wolves ran across the forest. At the front ran

two grey leaders and one red she-wolf. They both liked the she-wolf

and snarled at her. The old one-eyed leader killed the younger leader.

Then the she-wolf and One Eye ran together. After some weeks the

she-wolf found a cave near an Indian camp and decided to stay there.

back there were little wolves in the cave. One Eye snarled at them and

went hunting again.
