::She blinks in amazement and drops her notebook..::
***:The scientist had stumbled in accidentally…Her eyes had quickly spotted the wolf tracks that led to this area. Strange…She had not known that another pack was present…She had traveled by many a time, but somehow the wolves had evaded her. Almost all her life she had been around wolves. Like she was now, her father had been a Biologist, studying the behavior of wolves in the wild. There had been something about them…something in their eyes that pulled at his spirit and caused him to drop his office job and pursue a career is science. After his schooling, he had gotten a job with the National Park Service and had traveled to Yosemite to study the Timber Wolves in the area. Kate had been young then…very young.. but she had followed her father and listened eagerly to what he had told her and taught her throughout the years.
They had moved around a lot…traveling all over the world to study canis lupus…the wolf, until at last their travels had brought them to the far reaches of the north to study the white, Arctic wolves there. But all that changed…There was a horrible accident…her father had been killed, and a teen-aged Kate had flown back to the states for college.
Now in her early twenties, Kate had found her niche in the scientific world… in the same profession her father had had…almost. Kate’s job was photography and writing…as a wildlife documentarien focusing on members of the canine world…Wolves in particular. She had been studying a pack not far from this one when the tracks, in the mud along a riverbank, had caught her eye. The tracks were fresh, and she had followed them here. Now she crouched, shocked and amazed at what she saw…Wolves…unlike any others she had ever seen…a scientific impossibility…or not…?
She pulls out her camera, quickly pushing a strand of her straight, dark-brown hair out of her eyes. She focuses… ‘Click..’ Her heart hammers in her chest… ‘Click…Click..’ goes the camera shutter. She blinks, her blue-green eyes sparkling in wonder… How…? How was it possible…? In all her years she had never imagined…never even dreamed…of anything like this! Wolves…with wings! ‘Click…’ She lifts a slender hand to her forehead, checking to see if she was feverish… Dizzy, yes…sick, no. She lifts the camera again.. ‘Click…Click..Click.’ She focuses on one wolf…was that the alpha..? She watched as the female stood strongly…ears and tail raised stifly in dominance…the other wolves crouching in submission… She had to be the alpha…or at least a leader of some sort…She slowly focuses on the female, adjusting the camera until the image was as clear as crystal…perfect… ‘Click..’
