Swiftcurrent Creek one-way ticket to the sun

Yay, a thread with Gali! :)

Since the fight with those two black curs and then the pack meeting, Kaskara had kept a vigilant patrol of the borders. Morning and night, she would take a wide sweep of the entire creek territory, marking the border fresh, watching for intruders, and generally making sure things were good on the home front.

Then, between her duties as beta of accepting wolves and intercepting loners and settling any disputes that might arise, as well as hunting for the cache (which was full again, thank the stars), she would check on the border nearest the Bypass. It became habit, really, and it was something that she hoped wouldn't become a permanent one.

It was during one of these sweeps of the borders that Kaskara happened upon Galileo. She knew him by sight and name, but she couldn't remember if they had ever met or talked about anything outside pack meetings. Deciding today was the day that was going to change, she sped up and called, "Hey, Galileo! You going somewhere?"
