Chapter 1

This story is completely from my imagination and hold no known true facts.

 Dakota as Chief
Dakota's father was chief of the wolf clan. He died in battle along with all the other adult males of their clan against one of the tribe's many enemies. Dakota was his only child and just became an adult. His mother soon after hearing of her husband's death, took her own life, leaving Dakota an orphan and chief all in a weeks time.
The clan had very little to start off with, it was Dakota's duty and responsibility to repopulate to replace the warriors that were slain. He had his 2nd in command, Cameron, his 3rd in command Cheveyo, his betrothed Shanna, and their Shaman Claire. Dakota started finding goods to trade with other nearby clans for logs, supplies, and anything he thought would be useful. He did this with the help of the Shaman. Clan life was quiet, with no battles raging and no worries, but the Shaman warned him that this would not last for long.
-His Betrothed-
Dakota was unsure how to court his betrothed, Shanna, he was never taught the ways of a woman and a man so he came off a little shy and unsure of himself, which apparently was a turn off for his woman. She often left him standing, dumbfounded,confused and lost. One day when he came back from gathering wood for the fire, he caught Cheveyo and Shanna kissing and heading for Cheveyo's tent. Dakota waited patiently but was very angered by Cheveyo's betrayal and even more so by that of Shanna, HIS betrothed. As soon as they emerged from the tent he had them both exhiled and made it clear they should be grateful he wasn't going to execute them.
-Speaking with the Shaman-
Claire was like a mother to Dakota, she told him all things that she saw, and he often sought her out to help him sort out his troubles. Claire kept nothing from him, even the most troubling of visions. She told him that Cameron his his 2nd in command would rival him to become chief because he thought he was better suited. Dakota told her he would head the warning and watch Cameron closely.

Claire would also take trips to the other clans in search of a woman to become Dakota's wife. Claire was very peculiar about what sort of woman to bring back, and in time she found one, Nokomis. She wasn't the most beautiful on the outside, but she had a beautiful soul, and a kind heart.
Meanwhile, her prophecy about Cameron came true. Dakota headed him talking behind his back at a Tribal Counsel meeting, about how he didn't blame his betrothed for betraying him. When Dakota heard this his blood boiled, and it took everything in him not to say something then and there. But Tribal Counsel meetings were not a place to settle Clan disputes, so he waited until they were back in the village to settle tho matter.
-The Fight-
Clan law states that if another male who is not of the previous chief's blood, wishes  to be chief he must beat the current cheif twice in a row. 
Dakota having no woman to distract him had been sparring and wrestling with the other males of hereby clans, shop he felt ready to defend his honor and his birthright. Cameron on the other hand, was lazy and ogled any female that wondered by. An outsider who didn't care either way was the referee. On the count of three the match started, at first it was anybody's fight. Cameron would throw a punch, Dakota would fall, bit he would get right back up and Cameron a taste of his own medicine. Soon when Cameron would throw a punch, Dakota would dodge and counter with a punch and a kick to Cameron's stomach. Cameron was soon winded and with one last blow from Dakota, Cameron was down. They're was a brief intermission between fights so that both parties could catch their breath, settle their nerves and fought somewhat refreshed. The second round didn't last that long, Dakota won with a good solid punch to Cameron's face and knocked him flat on his back, Dakota stood over him and told him to leave and never show his face around his clan again!
