Sequoia Coast One life

Had Osprey not been so caught up with examining the corpse thoroughly (which would make any forensic pathologist proud of her), she would have caught sight of the young wolf, frolicking around not too far away. But she did not, therefore to her great shock she noticed a tad bit too late that somebody was dashing in her direction and there was no time for either fleeing or put up an "angry face" to scare the other off. 

No, she remained standing, where she was, staring at the approaching figure with wide eyes and mouth a bit agape, while her mind frantically searched for the most proper solution to this uncomfortable situation.
