Dr Leonard McCoy had to admit to himself that just having Kirk here was enough to make things seem a little better. Of course, it didn't change the fact that they were trapped in an incredibly primitive world, even beyond what he was comfortable with, with no hope of rescue. But at least he wasn't alone, at least there was someone else who really knew what it was like to be taken from their universe. Although he was still a little confused about where they actually were. It seemed most likely a planet somewhere, but he just wasn't sure about anything.

He'd felt better about everything, but when he'd woken up, everything had changed again. It seemed almost like a daily thing, and, to him, it was getting very old. He would prefer it if things would stay the way they were, for the most part. Not that he was upset to get rid of the giant board games or the laser tag. They had been fairly odd, and it was no loss to see them gone.

But it didn't seem to him like this new one was any better. Emerging from his room in the morning, he saw that it was all different once more, and he swore loudly. This was definitely getting on his nerves at this point. Everywhere he looked, there was stuff that was just completely incomprehensible to him. He wandered about, looking into tents, watching the dancing with a sardonic little smirk on his face, just looking at everything. In the end, none of it made the slightest bit of sense to him. What was the purpose to all this?

The doctor ended up, just by virtue of curiousity, by a strange scene indeed. Two of the strange little creatures, mounted on animals that Bones recognized from his childhood as horses, running at each other and apparently trying to knock each other from their perch. It looked incredibly dangerous, and he watched intently, just in case his medical services were needed.

"I'm starting to think this really is an incredibly stupid place." He remarked out loud, not to anyone in particular, and took a quick sip from his hip flask.

She was in her element. She could almost forget that she was in a foreign land talking to people in funny uniforms. And then he had to go and mention alien life forms of which she'd never heard the likes. She glanced up at him, her blue gray eyes skeptical and doubting his sanity. She didn't say anything, except, "Not human... either." She glanced back down at the bones. They were far to small to be human, even a human child. They had the structure of a fully grown being. The spurs on the bones and the other anomalies, such as the lack of marrow, completely baffled her.

She glanced up again when he mentioned that there were no signs of life. She merely nodded and then looked at the spot he pointed out. He was right, there was a tiny skull poking through the dirt. The sockets were full of soil, but she brushed it away easily enough. The bones hadn't been there long enough for the dirt to be compacted, only long enough to completely decompose. She pulled the skull free of the dirt carefully, the small lower jaw was no longer attached, but she could see where it did. There were strange bony structures on the skull that were not present in humans. She wondered if it was the result of some tragic plastic surgery, but highly doubted it. No one in their right mind would do such a thing to themselves.

"We need a box. Something that will keep the bones from touching each other. A bag is too destructive." She stood from her crouch, hips aching. It was a good ache, though, one she missed. She didn't go out on digs nearly as often as she'd like now that she worked so closely with the FBI. She pulled the latex gloves from her hands and balled them up in her palm. "I'm sure there is a box around here somewhere." She took a look at him. "Right?"
