You talked to him more about his werewolf studies… I am telling you brother they don’t exist and the reason the cut is gone is because I had it disinfected and cleaned.”
“Then why isn’t there some evidence of the wound?”
“I don’t know… maybe it was only a scratch or maybe….”
“Or maybe Doctor Deckard is right.”
“I’m sure he is wrong.”
“Okay then let’s find out today, right now.”
“And how do you propose we prove you are a werewolf?”
“Go with me to the zoo. There is one way to know for sure”
“What?”
“Go with me to a zoo now. If Deckard is wrong I will know and if Deckard is right, I know I will definitely need your help.”
“I was planning to check in at the office and then go to the funeral home….”
“Do this for me please sis.”
Elizabeth could see the deep concern in the eyes of her brother.
“I’ll get my coat and you are going to explain to me on the way, what werewolves have to do with any kind of test at a zoo.”
“I will sis. I will.”
Chapter 7 A Field Trip
Carl was driving the limousine while Elizabeth and Tom sat in the back. Elizabeth was on her laptop and Tom kept studying a map. She closed the window between the back seat and the driver and looked at her brother.
“What are you looking at?”
“Oh this… it is a layout of the zoo.”
“And just how do you propose we do this test of yours?”
“Simple. Carl will pull up to the south entrance and drop you off. You are going to the ‘cat house’. There you will find a bench and have a seat. I’ll call you and explain the next step in my plan.”
Elizabeth looked at the layout of the zoo.
“It would be quicker if you dropped me off at the north gate.”
“No dear sister. The direction of the wind is out of the west and I want to enter the zoo through an entrance that is downwind from the animals on exhibit.”
Carl pulled up to the entrance and Elizabeth began to exit the vehicle. She leaned back in.
“Oh, you have an email from Doctor Deckard senior.”
“Hey sis, I just want you to know how much I appreciate you doing this for me.”
Elizabeth smiled.
“I would do anything to get you beyond this obsession… I love you and I am sure this test will prove that you have nothing to worry about. I’ll call you just as soon as find a nice quiet place to sit.”
She shut the door and went to the gate to pay her admission as Carl parked as close as he could in order to return with Tom in a few minutes. Meanwhile, Tom logged into his email and read the short message from Deckard and wrote down a note. His sister knew he had an email because Tom’s phone beeped an ‘email arrival’ tone while he was studying his zoo literature.
