(Awww, Lynx... That means a lot. <3 I think Karma is the one I use the most introspection with, and you can probably figure out why with what I've told you about them. I might include more things about them more often. I honestly didn't think anyone would care to read it. ^^")
"Can it wait until she gets to the hospital and can talk to her mom?" Cy quickly interjected, wincing sharply at his cousin's scream. Thinking about the pain she must be in was beginning to make him feel sick to his stomach. He hated feeling helpless... It was hard sometimes, seeing so many of his friends with powers, but it was much worse when he wanted to help someone and couldn't do a thing about it.

"Only you can believe all is lost but I know with time, nothing is lost." (OOC)
"Not everyone can step the boundaries of time like you." "The doctors will have a lot of problems if I don't start getting fluids into her now." The paramedic tried to reason with Cy, starting to get really annoyed with the two of them.

The doctors were right, of course. Even though his cousin was panicked she still needed that IV. Sighing, Cy uneasily rose to his feet and took two steps so that he was standing next to her. "Sally, it's gonna be fine. I'm right here, and your mom will be there at the hospital when we get there. But right now, you need fluids... Please, can you just let them? You can squeeze my hand if you want, and it'll only hurt for a second." He said, trying to reason with her.
Karma was still holding on to Jackson's pants leg, wondering where in the world the teen was going.

"Not everyone can step the boundaries of time like you." "No, Cy. I can't do it." Sally said softly trying to plead with him, thinking that she was winning this though she had started to calm down.

"So you'd rather risk dying than take a simple IV?" Cy asked with a sigh.

"Not everyone can step the boundaries of time like you." "Jackson has done similar things to me lately so I think I have a pretty good chance of surviving." Sally said quietly. The paramedic took the opportunity of Sally being distracted and calm to a point to give her the sedative shot.

Cy winced when he watched the paramedic sedate her, and hoped that it would be enough to keep Sally from fighting them any further.

Since Cy was unaware of her cousin's ability, or her temperature, he was helpless to stop any of that. As for the needle, he could see the fear in her eyes and tried to give an encouraging smile to Sally. There wasn't much else he could do at that point but stay out of the paramedics' way and hope for the best."Alright, I will." Dex shook Ash's hand and returned the smile. "Think about what I said. There's plenty of bad people here, like anywhere else. Not all of us are that way though, and weirdness is considered, well... normal here." With another glance around, just to ensure his brother wasn't secretly lurking in the shadows, Dexter offered a wave goodbye and started off where he'd come from. He waited until he figured he was far enough way; half hidden by bushes, Dex transformed into Freak, who shot straight up into the night air in his electric form. "Alright I'll think about it Dex" Ash said "Now get home safe" he added as he started to walk back into the forest. He hoped he could find Skaldi on his way back thinking that she may be hungry and wanting something to eat before he realized that he had forgotten to get the trail mix but figured that she most likely ate meat

"Not everyone can step the boundaries of time like you." Sally flinched and looked freaked out for a moment before the drug started to take effect, which only happened quicker because of her slightly higher than normal body temperature. "Cy... Don't let them do test on me." She mumbled now having trouble keeping her eyes open.
The paramedic sighed and started getting the IV ready again, this time not having to fight with Sally about the needle.

Skaldi was in indeed lurking around the forest, currently trying to kindle a fire to stay warm. Unfortunately, Skaldi was also a vegetarian, due to one of her abilities. It was yet another thing that made her different from the majority of her kind.
Cy wondered at the request. He felt like something was going on that he didn't know about, and decided to text his dad about it. Everything was included in the text, up and including the part about Sally not wanting the doctors to do any kind of testing. Cyrus wasn't sure what to do, or how to handle it, and mentioned that as well. He hated being in the dark about things.

"Not everyone can step the boundaries of time like you." Shaggy read the text and replied telling him to just keep sally calm and that sedatives can sometimes make people loopy. He also sent a follow up text telling him to stay with his cousin as much as possible and that he would be there soon with Aunt Maggie. He then sent one more text that said his aunt wanted him to get her to talk about summer camp.
Sally still flinched slighly feeling the needle for the IV, "I don't want anymore test done." Sally mumbled slowly.

Figures. Cy released a soft sigh, not surprised that his dad wouldn't exactly tell him what was going on, and ended up leaving him with more questions and no answers. He didn't bother texting a reply back, but rather send a thumbs up emoji and returned his phone to his pocket. After seating himself again, he looked up when his cousin spoke. "No more tests. Just relax."

Ash had shifted into his wolf form again as he picked up the bags of jerky and started to try and trace Skaldi's scent which was much harder with the jerky right in front of his nose. He finally managed to find her and let out a little yip to get her attention

"Not everyone can step the boundaries of time like you." "I want to go home." Sally mumbled and tried to move the arm with the IV attached.
"Keep her from moving that arm too much." The paramedic said and took a tool out to measure Sally's temperature.

Skaldi was sitting hunched over the small fire with her hands over it. In the time since they'd last spoken, she'd cleverly crafted a small hut of sorts, using vines, branches, leaves and anything else within easy access. A few fist-sized stones encircled the makeshift campfire. Her jacket and beanie had been carefully recycled into a temporary bed behind her. Her ears were showing, as well as what appeared to be a long, lion-like tail curled around her. Upon hearing the yip, the girl glanced up quickly, her startled expression fading into recognition and a smile. "Hello, Ash!"
Cy wasn't sure whether or not the paramedic was talking to him, but got up anyway and attempted to keep Sally's arm still. However, it was then that the ambulance hit a rut in the road, causing Cy to stumble and accidentally knock the thermometer from the paramedic's hand. "Oh, s-sorry!"

Ash padded over and dropped the bags before turning back into his human form "Thought you'd be hungry. I meant to get some trail mix since I didn't know what your race typically ate but some stuff happened and I had to leave before I got them" he said

"Not everyone can step the boundaries of time like you." The paramedic sighed and picked the thermometer back up and noticed the digital screen was broken and just glared at Cy for a moment before grabbing an older fashioned one but by then the ambulance came to a stop at the hospital which led to ER nurses to come out and help the paramedics get sally into the building.

Skaldi listened but appeared confused by something he said. "Trail mix...? Is that some kind of food?" She asked curiously. The young girl had spent part of the day foraging in the forest, and had managed to amass a collection of berries, figs, wild tubers and truffles. This was typically the sort of things she ate, with the addition of the occasional fruits, vegetables and nuts that she found or was offered. (A couple of role-players had characters that were actually gonna adopt her, but then they ended up leaving the RP XD)
Cy's expression was apologetic. He hadn't intended for that to happen, even though it probably worked well in his cousin's favor. As the doors to the ambulance opened, Cy quickly moved hopped out and moved aside so that he wouldn't be in anyone's way. Hopefully his dad and aunt would be there soon.
By the time Milo had reached the doors to the museum again, the place had been firmly locked up. His eyes narrowed. Cupping his hands around his eyes, he peered in through the glass. Laser grids. Well, that's not happening. They'd probably cut right through it. Shaking his head, as he hadn't been completely serious about taking anything from the museum, he turned and stalked off with his hands in his pockets. It was getting late and his grandmother would no doubt be missing him. Not that he cared. Unless that meant his annoying twin sister would be sent to collect him. Scowling to himself, he hurried away to another part of the city.

"Not everyone can step the boundaries of time like you." The nurses got Sally set up in an actual room before leaving to go get the paperwork started by conversing with the paramedic.
Sally still seemed out of it though was also showing signs of the sedative wearing off rather quickly. The computer she was now connected to showed a temperature of 122.

Cy hadn't noticed where they took Sally, and decided to approach the front desk and ask. "Um, excuse me?" He called out to the first nurse that looked his way. "My cousin was just brought in on an ambulance. She was... stabbed. I got separated from her, and just wanted to know where she's at, and if she's alright?"

"Cyrus Rogers." Cy blankly replied, having pulled a blond move and said his own name instead of Sally's.

"Not everyone can step the boundaries of time like you." The nurse nodded before typing at her computer. "She is in room three. So just go down the hall and it'll be on the left just before the turn.
Sally tried to force her eyes open again noticing that she was in a white room and could hear the beeping from the machines in the room. It registered what had happened and her first thought was to get the reader taken off of her finger because of her body temperature.

Cyrus nodded, and hoped the doctors had done more than just stick her in a room. She was stabbed... shouldn't that require some kind of emergency surgery? Or something? Anything? He shuffled away from the nurses' station and followed the directions. Cy knew he was getting close when he heard the beeping.

"Not everyone can step the boundaries of time like you." Sally had gotten the finger reader off and was trying to figure out how to get the IV needle out but was having trouble gripping the tape that was wrapped around it to in sure it stayed in place.

By the time Cy had reached the room, the high temperature was no longer showing on the screen. Cy saw his cousin trying to remove the IV and hurried over. "No, don't do that... Wait until your mom gets here, alright? You're gonna be fine..." He tried to sound reassuring.

"Not everyone can step the boundaries of time like you." Sally paused and looked at Cy. "No, I can't. Cy I honestly can't. Not with what changed in me." She muttered before trying again to get the IV out of her arm.
