he rubbed the back of his head, troubled by the way this was going. of course, he'd want to help the guy, truly, but he could do nothing while the guy was being this stubborn. he shook his head and took a deep breath to calm his own thoughts, shaking off the frustratedness over his own uselessness. "den, de stream?" he replied, looking around quickly with a spin before looking to the two with a half smile, he'd just remembered how much he'd actualy known of the world he was in, "if ye be so kind as da guide, miss? I'v not a clue where dis stream be..."

Nodding to the hunched figure she moved away from Sandglass' arm, releasing him from her death clutch. Quickly turning away from the two, she tried to remember the path her grandma showed her a few weeks ago. Without warning she ran off into a direction but stopped abruptly. Turning back to the two she seemed focused on something. Running to the two she dropped down on her knees to the object of her fixation.
Gripping her violin she stood up and started running back in her original direction again, "Follow me!" she called while disappearing into the trees. Cy stopped after a few paces every so often and stared back at them, making sure they were still following her.

Sandglass took off after her. He was thankful for the pauses and breaks she was giving. He was only travelling slowly, trying not to set off his wounds too badly as he travelled. The more they travelled, the more red seemed to dribble down - more than should be healthy. The red stickiness was nothing new to him of course. Many times he'd fond himself covered in... similar such substance, not always neccesarily his own. The real problem was trying not to draw too much attention to it. It stank.

Findlay was gliding above, a trail of blue leaving off him like fire as he did. stopping now and then as he'd spotted another bird or squirrel in the branches, getting a brief closer look before remembering he'd been doing something else, getting back on track and following the two again.

Approaching her destination she sprinted out of the trees into the clearing. While it was only just a pond it was the largest body of water she'd ever seen. Once she reached the edge of the water she sat down, placing her violin beside her. Cy then took off her shoes and socks before putting her legs in the water. In less than a second she drew her legs away and shivered, shocked at how cold it was, but placed them back in the water after calming down. Softly she giggled before kicking the water up into the air, watching as the moonlight caused the droplets to shine.
The area was fairly calm, a gentle breeze pushing at the tree leaves and just enough to cause the waves to ripple. Streams were present on both Cy's far right and left. Allowing pond water to move freely downstream. The moon lit it up the water casting reflected blue lights on the surface. The animals nearby seemed to have all vanished from all the noise the five year old made.
Looking back towards her two companions she stared in awe at the blue hue following the doctor. How he managed to fly was beyond her, but it was still exciting to watch. Glancing to the other male she gasped softly at how badly his injury had become it made her stomach turn uneasily. She wasn't used to seeing this much red on anyone. Drawing her feet from the water she ran through the grass to him. Gripping his still clean hand, she helped him towards the water. Alerts went off in her head that staying to close to him would make her sick. The violinist was feeling squimish again just from the smell on blood surrounding him.

Sandglass held the hand gently as he was taken towards the water. Calmly, without removing the bandage, he made his way into the small stream. As he did, blood met water, causing a stain of red to join the blue flow, cleaning it from his body but running the liquid scarlet. He knew regrettably however, that as soon as he got out of the water, the blood would simply run down again, and he'd recieve more insistence for help. It was at this point that he had an... unusual idea. Using his free hand, and the cover of the murky water, he fumbled around till he had a collection of small grubby stones. Taking them, he slipped his hands under the bandages - keeping everything below his neck below water to prevent sight of this from the others - and poked the stones into the holes in his chest. This hurt. This hurt a lot. Even as he was doing it, he couldn't help but grit his teeth, close his eyes and wince. And yet... he let out nothing more. Not a sound to indicate how badly this hurt. He had suffered like this before - he'd suffered worse than this before. He could do this now without giving himself away too much. Once satisfied that he'd completely stemmed the bleeding, he tightened the bandage around his chest, ensuring it would not come loose as he emerged. If that occured, it would render the entire process pointless. Standing, wincing slightly as he did, he emerged clean of the blood, beyond the remainder of colour died into the bandages his shirt had created. Hopefully this would convince them to let him be now.

Findlay was floating more than a foot above ground next to the water awestruck, fire-like lights spiraling down his legs, looking around the place. "so beautiful..." he said more to himself, turning to the girl soon after, continuing with a curious honesty, "dis world always so full of life?"

Cy tilted her head and blinked at Findlay, slightly tilting her head, "Well why wouldn't there be?" she grinned and placed her feet back in the water, kicking droplets of water. The brown eyed girl was aiming her water attack for Findlay but failed. Frowning slightly she shrugged it off, enjoying the company she had. The other few times she ventured into the forest at night her only guest were the sounds of the forest. Birds usually fell asleep at this time, but the fireflies came out in the summer. She remembered spending a whole night just watching them until her grandma found her earlier that same morning.
The child did recieve a scolding for going out alone, since there could be scary people wanting to steal her in the woods. Cy found this funny now, the two before her weren't scary in the slightest. The one with long teeth was a bit scary but that was only because he was injured. Speaking of which, he was looking a lot better, "I knew the water would work!" she shouted and jumped at Sandglass in the water, arms circling around his neck.

"Nyrk-!" was pretty accurate to Sandglass' response as the leaping child send new waves throughout his body. Who knew an innocent child could be the source of such suffering. Trying not to offput her, he gave her a hugely strained smile, trying to distract from the agony coursing around his chest like some form of horrific infestation. "S-so..." he grunted, "You say... you say 'dis world' as if it's not your own...?" he questioned. It would explain the strange, exotic, almost completely unplacable accent, which sounded like it came from no country that Sandglass had ever heard of, or indeed, he suspected most people around would have ever heard. "Where do you... where do you come from... then?"

"oh no, no, no, it is me world" he assured, lowering his voice to almost unaudible as he muttered, "be it now or then, the times'v change'd considerably to what I'v recall'd" he shook his head, voicing his still lingering concern one last time, "more importantle, ye sure ye be alright now?"

"Yea, how be ye?" she asked Sandglass mimicing Findlay's odd accent. Brown eyes shined with joy as she waited patiently like he was about to tell a story. But she knew he'd be alright, the water had healed him. Taking a brief glance below her she wondered if he'd drop her into the water and frowned slightly. She didn't want her nightgown getting soaked or else her grandma would know she snuck out again. The brunette brought her gaze back to the saber-tooth mobian and tapped his tooth, "What are you mister?" curiously Cy asked in some type of trance as she continued to tap on the long teeth.

"Y-yes... yes, I'm fine..." Sandglass spoke first in response to the flying individual. The one 'not of this time'. That was... curious. It also left him to wonder if this individual was possibly from a time in which Sandglass was still a presence himself. Oh well, he couldn't really question that... it's not like this individual would know the name of every single person on the planet from their time, and even then, it would blow his cover to question it. It soon came to Sandglass attention that he was being asked another question. The young girl wanted to know what he was. "I am... a tiger, of sorts," he explained, "Sabre-toothed if you want me to be precise. Well, I'm the anthropomorphic equivalent of one anyway." This probably had the chance to lead to more questions, but it was hard to lie about. Thinking quickly, he tried to focus the direction of thought away from himself again, back towards the time traveller. "So what brings you back here?"

"I dun' think tellin' ye abou' dat woul' be a good idea." Findlay shrughed, spacing out for a moment as he recalled the things he'd seen and done, before looking back with sincere concer again, "sure, ye mae be fine nao, bu' bein' in the wa'er for long... ye two won' catch anythin' like a col' or sum', rite?"

Drawing herself from her thoughts she stared at Findlay. Cy blinked in realization before letting go of Sandglass and dog paddled her way onto the shoreline. As she pulled herself out of the water she shivered at the cold wind. But she held her breath and rubbed up and down her harms to warm herself up. Jumping to her feet energy rushed through the child as she ran around in circles, warming up her body in the process. Plopping back onto the grass she grinned happily up at the two as if she hadn't just acted like a wound up toy puppy.

Sandglass moved at a slower pace, moving onto the bank. He dripped all over, both fur and clothes being saturated in water. The stench of blood was much weaker now, most of it having being taken away by the river. Instead he now smelt more strongly of wet fur, like a dog who's just come in from the rain. "I'll be fine, haven't had a cold in a long time..." he stated calmly, "Good immune system." He was particularly immune to bullets it would seem. Not that that was particularly mentionable right now. Calmly, he glanced around the area, looking from tree to tree. It was definitely unfamiliar ground for him. "So, er, kid?" he spoke to Cy, "Know the way to the closest town or city from here...?"
