"Ethyn, I know you're worried about us getting found," Kye spoke up from below him. "But dude, the more you stop the more time you're giving the people looking for us to find us. And I get that it is really difficult to not stop and scan the area, but you just gotta keep moving."

"Something just feels really wrong." He sighed. "If we get caught, or if they catch up and follow protocol, you're all dead. And I don't want to lose my chance at something like a family." His voice broke.
"Well, so long as we stick close enough together and keep moving we'll be fine. Remember that purpley barrier thing from earlier? That was mine. I can create literally unbreakable force fields. Anyone close enough will be protected by them. And depending on the situation I can keep them up for a long time," Kye explained. "We just need to get across town to my buddy, he's much better a handling situations like this than I am."
"You're doing pretty well so far," Ethyn assured him. "I'm just a little high strung right now."
Ethyn swallowed. "Right, yeah. Should I go at the back?"
"Dude, I'm literally immortal," Ethyn said, blank-faced.
Ethyn smiled. "Yeah, you're right." Ethyn pulled himself up another flight.

"Wait wait wait," Ava paused for a bit to adjust Kain's position, and then continued. "You never mentioned you were immortal, " she told Ethyn.
"I just did." Ethyn grinned. "Yeah sorry didn't find the right time to say but yeah."
school
"The right time?" Ava asked. "When is there a right time to just tell someone that you basically can't die??"
"When everyone else isn't about to die, maybe?" Ethyn said.
"But you're right. I should have said something." Ethyn sighed
Kye had a small smile on his face as he followed.
They're all so innocent.
Okay, these kids are a lot of things, but innocent isn't one of them.
Comparatively speaking.
Fair enough.
You seem to like them quite a bit, I've noticed.
Who wouldn't? I mean, we have a badass girl who deserves a family, a little boy that has stolen all our hearts, a fireball of a guy, and a ninja girl. Seems like a good family to me.

"Yes, that's true. But we don't have much time to dwell on small subjects like this, let's just drop it for now," Ava sighed too, and continued on.

(Kain is smol bean who loves people but has a few issues)
Kain spoke up just a little bit "Is it a bad time to say that i can summon spirits?"
"Bad? No that's pretty awesome kid!" Ethyn said, reaching over to give Kain a fist bump.
school
Ava smiled, "No kid, it's not at all. In fact, they could give us some useful information," she remarked. Ethyn was right, that was pretty awesome, as he put it.
They reached the roof and Kye took up the lead again. Thankfully most of the roofs were connected, and if they weren't connected they were close enough together that even Kain could jump them if he had to. Kye glanced back at the people following him and had to do a double take. For a moment he thought he'd seen different people. But looking again showed only the four following him.
You still miss them.
Shut up.
You can lie to yourself but not to me.
I said, shut up.

Kain returned the fist bump and smiled summoning a small face and whispered a question in its ear
Ethyn watched the spirit with interest. "Fascinating."
group
The spirit nodded and darted away quickly and scouted the area then came back reporting that the cops were catching up
school
"Huh, can others see it?" Ava asked, wondering if it wasn't just them who could see the spirit.
Kye slowed down a little to make sure everyone was close enough for him to protect. KNowing that the people they didn't want to have catching up, were catching up, caused him to worry a bit. So he made sure they were al close enough for him to protect.
Don't be slowing down. Be speeding up, and get the others to speed up with you.
We're fine. I don't want them to start worrying because I start worrying.
If you don't start worrying more you are going to get everyone killed.
….shut up.
No, I really mean it. If you do not start actually being hard on them and getting them to where you all need to be, they are all going to die.
Shut up!
"If Crowley and the others are catching up, we should probably start running." Ethyn suggested, suddenly frowning. "I do not want to go back in a cell." He looked down and added quietly "Or to my family."
school
"Mood," Ava replied, mostly referring to the last part of Ethyn's dialogue, but at the same time, referring to the first part as well.
Ethyn gave her a sideways grin. "Bad family as well?"

Ava took a deep breath and only said, "…you could say that."
