"stop moving around so much your only going to make yourself feel more pain."
she sighed and put a hand on him, forcing dark energy into him, filling him with energy and healing him enough to sit down.

He sank back down with a groan. “I need to get back to August and the others. I was hoping I could ride it.” He glanced at the creature. Then his brow’s furrowed. “But then again, you teleported me here. I don’t have a frame of reference for where we are. Thanks, by the way. Who knew your powers could actually feel good?”

she rolled her eyes at his last comment, "Well i have never have someone respond so poorly to being shadow traveled before, you big wuss." she huffed at him.
she looked at the creature, "We were on her back the whole way here, she killed the guard.its a she, not an it." she huffed.

He actually laughed at being called a big wuss. Then it turned into a cough. He managed, “Ah, sorry, I meant that you teleported me to the experimenters’ headquarters. But true, I didn’t know how exactly we got here, to the cave. At least I know it’s possible to ride…” he paused. “Um, what pronouns does the creature prefer?”
The beast yawned. I don’t know. I think I’m a she. Or it. I’m… something. Only, I’m not familiar to myself. Strange.

"oh well it still makes you a wuss." She stuck her tongue out at him when he looked at the beast before looking at her herself. She sighed,
"she says that she's a she, bit she's not familar with herself."

“Got it,” he tilted his head at her. “How can you understand her anyway, chat noir?”
(Hhh this is all I got rn)

"I thought I told you to stop calling me that." She grumbled at him before turning to face him completely.
"I don't know how I understand it i just do okay? It spoke and I listened. Simple as that." She flicked his forehead.

“Hey!” He pushed her hand away, chuckling. “Sorry, I couldn’t resist. I’m still going to call you that though. Even if you tell me your name, which you haven’t. Anyway, that’s puzzling. Let’s leave it on the back burner for now. Do you know where we are? Like, in relation to the experimentation headquarters and the western side of District 6.”

"I have no clue." she shrugged.
"It feels weird being outside of the E H and not being on a mission, i don't know what to feel." she turned to look around the room once more.

Great, he thought. He was about to say something when he heard the creature sing a note on his right.
Where are we? We’re in my forest! We’re in the Grey Woods. My forest. Experimentation headquarters… she seemed to pause. One mile west. District 6 western wall… five miles southeast. Are you hungry? I’m hungry.

"she says were in her forest, the Grey Woods. E H is one mile west, and district 6 is five miles south east. she also wants to know if your hungry." kali said interpreting what the beast was trying to communicate to Malachi.

“Ohh, alright,” he put a hand to his chin. “We can work with that. And yes, I’m hungry.”
The creature turned her head, peering into the rain. She blinked a few times, and sang a few notes. Then she rose, swishing her tail in farewell and leaving the cave.
“So…” Malachi stared after her. “She’s gonna hunt for food.”

"Yeah, she is." she sat down against the wall, leaning against it and letting out an empty sigh. she didnt have much to talk about with him and she didnt really want to talk, but she hated the silence.
she waited for him to speak up or say something.

“But how is she going to do that exactly? I mean, she’s got a tiger’s body, but she doesn’t have tiger’s jaws, which is essential for killing prey.” He unfurled his hand from his chin, his eyebrows knitting together in fascination and confusion.
