Marie Van Der Veen got tired of waiting for Skye to take action. She put in a call to The Bureau of Indian Affairs, and was directed to one J.W. Blackwolf. Marie waited on pins and needles , until she saw the pickup truck, Philip's, then she became irritated. One side was Phillip, on the other side was, Katrina. Out if the back was, Junior and Kailee. A second vehicle, was revealed, out of it, came Dr. Liza Blackwolf and a tall, grizzly bear of a man. Marie's questions were answered by her son. " Mom, may I introduce you to, Jerome Wesley Blackwolf. " " Mr. Blackwolf, may I offer you, some iced tea?" The man had salt and pepper silky curls, cut very short. He was tall and strong like a great bear, a grizzly. His dark eyes were lit up with th he fire intelligence. His voice deep and filled with knowledge. He quietly studied her case and the evidence, given to her by Jack Kopus, her ex. After a bit, he spoke, "Chief VanDerVeen, you have a very strong case against the town. I can not only prove they are responsible for the dumping, but also the cases of cancer caused by the dumping. " "Can you speed up the case against the auto company?" "Speed it up, I can probably get the "ball rolling" in federal court." Marie VanDerVeen gave all the evidence, she had to J.W Blackwolf, and the info on Jack Kopus.
Three weeks past, and Skye made her move, to only be humiliated by the "surprise" guest to the council meeting. "Who are you?" The man stood, cleared his throat and introduced himself, " Hello, Look ladies and gentlemen, of the Council, my name is J.W Blackwolf. " "Jerome Wesley Blackwolf?" Skye knew him by reputation, as did many of the other tribal members. "Why are you here?" "The Chief, hired me to look into your cancer and mountain illness problem." Skye became indignant, "I am the legal council to this tribe." JW, eyed her, his voice deep and filled with knowledge, " If you spent more time, working for the interests of the tribe, then impeaching the current chief, I wouldn't be here." One older member stood up, "Skye is trying to preserve the old ways for the next generation. " JW, turned to the older member and his words turned many of the other council members, " If you don't get off your asses and help the cancer stricken people on this mountain, there will be NO one to preserve the old ways for.
