We followed the police chief back to town and to the police station. The exterior of the imposing building was made of granite and the interior was accessed via a flight of long, wide steps up to the two front doors. We parked out front and the chief led us up the stairs and into the lobby. There was a front counter with an officer on duty, and behind him was an open room with a few desk. The left wall had a few doors, one of which was marked ‘Chief.’

It was to that office we were led. There was enough room for a desk, tall filing cabinet, and three chairs, one of which was behind the desk. The front wall that looked out on the open area had a large window. The chief lowered the blinds as we entered, then took a seat behind the desk. Orion and I took a chair in front of the desk. I swept my eyes over the room. A picture on the desk caught my eye. It was of two boys with their arms across one another’s shoulders. Both wore street clothes and were soaking wet.

I nodded at the picture. “Did you try to fish with your hands?”

Orso’s eyes flickered to Orion. “No, it was just some punk who nearly drowned me one summer, but we’re not here to reminisce.” The chief pulled out the plastic bag and tossed it on the desk. “Tell me everything you can about this fur. How’d you find it? Where exactly did you find it?”

Orion told him everything up to the point where the chief found us. Orso leaned back in his creaky chair and pursed his lips. “That’s a mighty interesting story.”

“It’s more than just a story. It might be the reason for the Sickness,” Orion pointed out. He scooted closer to the front of the desk. “What I figure is-” The chief held up his hand and nodded.

“I know, I know. The Sickness is coming from this unknown werewolf, right?”

Orion nodded. “Exactly.”

The chief leaned forward and pulled out a drawer. He pulled out four slips of paper. “These are the statement forms I need you two to fill out, both for today and last night. Sign on the dotted lines when you’re done and I’ll get my men on this.” He stood and left the room.

I glanced from the closed door to Orion, and jerked my head at where Orso had gone. “Is he always this calm when he learns about trouble?”

Orion furrowed his brow. “Often, but this is a little much.” He sighed and slid two of the papers in front of me. “But I guess we’ll fill these things out and get going. We still have your stuff to pick up at the motel, remember?”

I grudgingly filled out my statement forms, but this left a bad taste in my reporter mouth. We finished our paperwork and stepped out into the open area. The chief met us at his door. “All done?”

Orion nodded. “Yep.”

“Good. I’ll be in touch with you if anything comes up,” Orso promised.
