Trying to survive he is forced to live with the buffalo. His family now hunts him like the buffalo.Excerpt:He felt himself slipping. "Ayanah!" He screamed. "I'm falling! Slow down! Slow down! I'm falling off!"The big buffalo did not seem to hear him. Instead, he ran faster. "Please, Ayanah!" Askee pleaded.It was no use. His grip on the thick hair was giving.
