A/N: GULU GULU! BWAHAHAHAHA!!! Oh god that's wonderful... ::wipes tears from eyes::. Anyways, Gulu Gulu is the scientific terminology (whew big words) for wolverines.... AHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!! ::falls off chair::
**********************************
Excerpt from The Haines Junction Gazette:
... In the peacefulness of the Canadian forest a monster lurks. Already three lives have been taken to its ghastly bloodlust. Bodies found have shown signs of a struggle with an immense animal. Long sweeping claw marks have been found up and down the corpses. Traces of an unidentified metal has been found on all of the bodies, as well as a short, course, black hair.
Police have said that survivors, though clearly have been driven mad by horror, said that it was a werewolf that had attacked them. Police are puzzled, "The hair is like that of a wolverine (Gulu gulu). The claws, however, cannot be identified, they seem to be like that of a bear, only much longer and stronger, as they cut straight through bone." Later the idea that wolverines were behind this was discarded, as they have been hunted to near extinction in this area.
It is suggested that people not travel alone and without proper protection. Walking or hiking in the woods is not suggested. If you see or find any signs of this creature, please contact the Haines Junction Police...

Jubilee swung open the bar door. Men glanced over at her entrance and the barmaids and prostitutes gave her the evil eye for letting in the cold air. Jubilee chuckled for the first time in a while.
'They must be cold what with wearing the scraps of cloth they called clothes.' Jubilee thought wryly to herself. Even bundled up in twelve plus layers she was getting most of the appreciative glances that the room held.
The young Asian woman plopped her down on her normal bar stool. She ordered a soda from the barkeep and shed her plush, gore-tex winter jacket. There was no getting around the fact that even after 11 years in a less-than-warm climate, she still couldn't stand the cold. She grabbed the soda greedily and sipped the caffinated beverage greatfully. Her love of any manner of sugar or caffine was another thing left over from her SoCal Mallrat days.
Elle, a barmaid sidled up to her and took a seat. Elle was one of the few people in the little shoot-off of Haines Junction that talked to Jubes. This was strange, because Elle really didn't like anyone that much. She was one of the more desired women at the bar, but kept to herself and was known to promise bodily harm if a man got too close. She was also known to keep her promises.
"So, I was workin' the graveyard two nights ago, in comes Larry with this little blonde number and ordered champagne!" As always, Elle started off her conversation with gossip.
Jubilee played along "Larry Farstein or Larry DeLeon?"
"Larry Farstien of course! Larry DeLeon prefers the company of men If you know what I mean." Elle rolled her eyes in a 'well duh!' –like manner. "Anyways, it turns out that his wife thinks that he's out playin' pool with the guys. And I'll tell you, the way they stumbled out I doubt he was playin' 'pool' with any guys. Though he was shoving some sort of cue into a pocket if you know what I mean.
