Pini y Kuri’i vivían en el Chaco y allí hace demasiado calor, el sol es como el fuego, andaban caminando y después se perdieron por el camino, de repente encontraron plantas de tuna y se quedaron a comer. En ese momento, escucharon el ruido de un vehículo y rápidamente Pini y Kuri’i se escondieron detrás de un árbol para espiar, vieron venir al camión grande y siguieron espiando para saber quién venía en el camión. Vieron bajar a un señor que empezó a hachear todos los árboles que había y ellos tuvieron demasiado miedo. Temblaban juntos en su escondite. "Quedate aquí, busquemos un hoyo para poder escondernos mejor," le dijo Pini a Kuri’i y éste le respondió: "no, yo tengo demasiado miedo, quedémonos aquí nomás y sigamos espiándole."

At that moment, they heard the noise of a vehicle and Pini and Kuri'i quickly hid behind a tree to spy [to see without being seen], and they saw a big truck coming and they continued looking to see who was coming in the truck. They saw a man come down and knock down all the trees with an ax and they were very frightened. They were trembling together in their hideout. "Stay here, let's find a hole to hide better," said Pini to Kuri'i. And he responded: "no, I am very afraid, let's stay and we can keep spying on them."
