James stumbled to a stop when he realised the jungle had changed to rocks and canyons. He cursed softly, he must really be out of it not to have noticed he'd gone through an anomaly.

He turned and hurried back to the, thankfully still open, anomaly as fast as he could. He wouldn't leave Abby; she'd be waiting for him and he'd never come.

The cub whimpered and hid, and James looked up as he heard the buzz of an aircraft.

James didn't pause as he stepped back into the past. Even if this was his time, he couldn't stay.

He was certainly in the right century (or close) but James couldn't leave Abby alone and in the past.

Thanks for reading.
