B.ORN LEADE.R 

K.apu had decided to make a hunt for the pack. the wolf travelled on large paws and strong legs to the game trails of his territory. his nose was lowered to the ground. he smelled moose. this was good! the moose were becoming rare from some sickness. K.apu continued to sniff for more information. the moose was nearby; a young (about 4 months, which was still pretty large) calf. it was weak, orphaned and alone. and it was close. 
K.apu thrust his head into the air. he released a beautiful song, a hunting melody. he was calling the pack, telling them to gather in the central pack lands. for there, they would have a hearty feast. 
almost immediately after his solo was finished, K.apu was off. the call would have warned the calf. luckily, K.apu could smell sickness in the calf. it wasn't sick from the disease spreading in the moose currently, but it was dehydrated and had a cold. soon, K.apu had sighted the calf. it had a bad injury in its right front leg, and was barely able to run. still, it was pretty large - though K.apu could tell that he could take it down himself. the others could relax. 
the huge, grand wolf easily sped along and caught up to the calf. a fierce snarled erupted from him, and he snatched the calf's shoulder. his grip and weight caused it to stumble, but the moose wasn't going down easy. it quickly regained its balance and reared up for a moment, jerking to the left and lashing with all of its legs. it was in a wild frenzy. K.apu clenched down harder, enjoying the sweet taste of blood in his mouth. 
the black wolf tore viciously at the moose's shoulder, then released his grip. he would aim for a higher spot now. turning with the calf, following its every movement, K.apu made a fake lunge for the calf's throat. the moose was convinced that he was already attempting the kill, and swerved. this was expected, and K.apu was happy. he grabbed the calf's uninjured leg and snapped down hard. he could hear a bone breaking under his teeth. 
the wolf quickly released his hold on the cow. now that it was injured badly, stumbling along, dragging its front legs, he was ready to kill. the calf had dropped to its knees, but was still fighting for its life. it lashed out and threatened K.apu with bared teeth. the wolf wasn't convinced. the moose was still a baby. those teeth could do no harm. 
the young moose was too inexperienced, too frightened by the wolf attack to know that it should tuck its head in and protect its throat. besides, it was in shock. the moose's eyes were glazed over. even if K.apu decided to leave it here - where no wolf packs would dare to come, for it was Aspen Grove territory - it would die. but K.apu wasn't about to leave his prey. the wolf lunged for the calf's throat... and hit! 
there was a terrible cry, a few gurgling, bubbling sounds of blood, and then the moose became limp. K.apu released his hold. it was a fine kill. the wolf again lifted his head and howled, though this time it was a different song. it was a song of happiness and victory. 
lowering his muzzle, K.apu ceased his howl. he snatched the neck of the moose carcass and yanked it toward the central lands of Aspen Grove. there they would feast.
