Jess' ears perked as she heard commotion from down the street where Leam had gone. She swallowed and silently stalked after him, her eyes and ears alert and her steps quick. She turned a corner and gasped slightly, tensing up slightly. "Leam!" She gasped.

Leam whirled around, startled and confused. "Run, just go." He called to her, kicking one of the officials and turning to grab another and handcuff her to a light post. He laughed, enjoying the fun of seeing them scramble for him. A cool hand landed on his shoulder, twisted his arm back, pinned him to the ground. "Go, Jess." He grunted out, laying on the pavement.

Jess frowned, going to run, but looking around slightly. "Moon?" She called out worriedly, eying Leam and letting out a gasp of Anguish. She looked around, ready to jump in when Leam needed her, but until then... "Moon?"

Moon squeaked, looking at Jess through the broken window. "Over here." He called, not knowing if Jess could understand him.
Leam gasped out as his arm twisted farther, a large hand clamped over his mouth.

Jess heard a squeak and rushed over to Moon in the broken window, then spun around as she reached him. "Leam!" She cried out, not sure what to do. She looked at Moon with desperate eyes, trying to find what she was supposed to do in the small badger.

Moon lept to her shoulder, staring towards the fountain. "We need to go, somewhere. Get away from here before they come for me." He squeaked anxiously.
The man hefted Leam over his shoulder, tying his hands together. Leam kicked out, hard, and caught him in the back of the head. He lost his grip a little, Leam slipped and ran, his arms still tied. "Moon, Jess, come on!" He called, running as fast as he could towards them.

Jess rolled her eyes slightly, then heard Leam call and nodded. "Excuse my rudeness," She said, picking up Moon in her gentle hands and racing after Leam with speedy legs. Her eyes were narrowed in concentration as she tried to keep her steps swift and silent. "Leam, you are a fool!" She exclaimed, her hair whipping into her face.

"What?" He cried out over the wind racing through his hair. He smiled, thinking he had heard he right.
"Daft, that's what you are, daft." Moon grumbled, settling down in her hands.

Jess rolled her eyes slightly, holding Moon closely (and still gently) to her. "I said you a fool!" She said in her same calm but powerful voice, brushing the hair behind her ear and then bringing it back down to Moon in one swift movement.

Leam smiled. "I thought so."
Moon huddled against her chest.

Jess raised an eyebrow and looked silently behind her, wondering if they were still being followed. "Where are we going?" She asked, stroking Moon softly.

"Away from here." He replied, a short and quick answer. He skidded in his shoes, halting at the corner. "Candy or fruit and veggies?" He called to Moon.
"Fruit, veggies." Replied Moon calmly, licking his lips.
Leam ducked into the store and snatched a handful of apples and carrots from the rack, then ducked out just as quickly. Noone seemed to notice.

Jess watched him with narrowed eyes, following him on swift feet. "I have money you know," She growled, somewhat against stealing from the hard-working store owners.

"This is easier. If they saw me in there, man, I would be dead. They'd seal the doors shut and lock me away some where." He shot back, slowing to a trot.

Jess rolled her eyes and stroked Moon on the head. "I didnt say you had to go in," She pointed out mildly, then stretched out her arms to pass Moon to Leam, looking at the ground.
