9. Based on the excerpt below, what is the narrator's primary motivation for acting as she does?
The man thing looked around. It had no gun, like the ones from the
man places do. But it picked up a heavy fallen tree branch in its
long white foot, and shoved the end of that down into our house, at
me. I snapped the end of it in my teeth and started to force my way
out, because I knew the man would kill our children if it could. But
my sister was already coming. I saw her running at the man with her
head low and her mane high and her eyes yellow as the winter sun. It
turned on her and raised up that branch to hit her. But I come out of
the doorway, mad with the mother anger, and the others all were
coming answering my call, the whole pack gathering, there in that
blind glare and heat of the sun at noon.
