Character Stories for How Coyote Stole Fire

I am Chipmunk.  My instinct is also to distrust Human.  When Coyote told me that the Humans needed my help I was filled with compassion .  I wanted to help.  Like Coyote, I do not have a need for warmth because of my fur.  I was once tan all over.  But, as I was carrying the flaming stick that Coyote stole from the Fire Beings it burnt three long streaks down my back.  Now, all Chipmunks carry the same streaks on their backs.
