CHAPTER TWO - The Intruder

     In the depths of the forest a lean and yet muscular lupine stood. He was frozen in silence, and hismovement came from his ears that twitch; dialing in at every sound. The wolf was not black, nor was he white. Instead the male was a striking grey color. His visage shown with streaks of black, but where complimented by the the white tip of his tail.  The entire conversation had been over heard.
     For many days the young male had stood in this exact spot. The slowly sloping bluff joined by countless trees of different specie, that he now perched atop.

     "Lets go..."
     Soon they neared the center of the territory. The north was the larger of tribes, and had a little over thirty members. The south had about twentyfive members, but were much more organized. Five minutes past and the two wolves entered a small pathway. There they were led into a grand opening. Shrouded by thick canopy, and an immence wall of brush.Suddenly the black wolf with the yellow eyes stopped, bowed, then backed away. Confused the grey wolf glanced toward his companion, only to see him galloping away...
