Sapphire was running in the woods, looking for food. Her pups were in desperate need. She saw a deer and crouched. Sapphire crept closer.. and.. a wolf pounced on her. "Heh." Said the wolf. "Aw, come on, Mark!" She said. Mark was her mate. "I was hunting for the pups! Remember?" She asked. "Oh yeah.." responded Mark. "Lets get going home. I found an elk for them." He said.
