Shockingly, the lawyer remembered. He knew. He understood. His mind was enlightened like a torch ignited by the wisdom of God. The secret of creation was playing like a holographic movie in front of his eyes: The bony fish evolved into amphibians. They migrated onto the land and became reptiles and then mammals. Some of the mammals became primates. They danced stupidly like monkeys around the fire. Some of the mammals became wolves. They stocked their preys and enjoyed their meals inside their dark damp caves. The primates evolved into apes and then humans. They became the janitors, the garbage-men, the construction workers, the sectaries, the cubicle dwellers and all other lower to middle class workers. While the wolves, who were much more intelligent than the primates, evolved into a complete different species. They learnt how to wear ties, to dress in suits and to carry black leather briefcases. They evolved into lawyers, to mayors and all other species of politicians. They became the Defenders. The Defenders elected by their preys.

The wind of mid September was still chilling. But the lawyer felt much warmer under the thick gray pelt he was now wearing. The wolf had disappeared in the silence of the night. The downtown buildings, the street, the pavement, the parking lot and the moon all became quiet once again. Reminiscing the sweet juice of the lamb chop, he was thinking he should probably cut down his diet on the lamp chops. It was rather hard for him to fall asleep at night.
