What. The. Fuck?

Morgan didn’t curse. The occasional damn or hell was the limit to her foul mouth. Somehow, watching the man you were growing fond of turn into a bear before your eyes warranted stronger words than oh my gosh. The strongest and most satisfying word she could think of was fuck.

Red oozed out from under Grant. No, the bear. Shaking, she stepped back. What to do? The car keys were in his pockets, but his pockets were in a pair of jeans that no longer existed. Her brain couldn’t wrap around that. She needed to call someone, but who? A vet or a doctor?

Digging deep into the bag, she pulled out the satellite phone. Dialing the only number she could think of, she waited for her college professor to answer.

“Hello?”

“Owen?” Her voice shook.

“Morgan, is that you? It’s hard to hear you.”

“Owen,” she repeated, breathing in the cold dry air. She sat on the edge of the boardwalk with the large bear a few feet from her, praying someone would come along then praying they wouldn’t.

“Morgan, are you okay? What’s wrong?” Concern laced the older man’s voice.

“I’m fine. I think. My friend Grant isn’t, though. He just got gored by a bison.”

Owen gasped. “I’m sorry. Is he going to be okay?”

“I don’t know he is just lying there, but the bleeding seems to be stopping.”

“Wait, you are still out in the field? Did you call for help?”

She shook her head knowing darn well he couldn’t see it. “Who should I call?”

“Call the park rangers.”

“He is a man. I mean, he was a man, but now he isn’t a man. And I think I am losing my mind.”

“Calm down and put your head between your knees,” Owen’s voice demanded. After a moment, he said, “Is your head between your knees?”

“Uh huh.”

“Okay, now, tell me in a calm manner what is going on.”

She rocked back and forth, thinking if she didn’t say the words, they wouldn’t be true. She glanced up. Nope, they were still true. “One second Grant was a man, the next, poof, he’s a bear.”

“Say. That. Again.”

“I’m crazy, aren’t I? A man turning into a bear is ridiculous.”

“What kind of bear?”

“I tell you a man turns into a bear, and you ask what kind? A big furry kind that shouldn’t be in the place of a man.”

“Black or grizzly.”

This conversation was not going the direction she had thought it would. Which, to be honest, was getting her checked into a room with padded walls and jackets that allowed her to hug herself all day long. “Does it matter?”

“Yes.”

“Well, he’s brown.” All she could see was the big ball of fur at the moment. Her brain didn’t want to function.

“Black bears come in other colors than black.”

“Well, then, why do they call them black bears?” Panicked laced her voice. She didn’t want to think about bear species. She only wanted to get help.

“Morgan, this is important.”

“Grizzly, at least I think he is a grizzly.” Right now, if someone told her he was a beaver, she might believe them.
