Though it felt like his heart was already betraying his position, it certainly pounded loud enough in his ears, and so fast it sounded like an insane drummer with a grudge against tom toms.<br/><br/>He strained to listen over it, his heart sinking, though not slowing, as he heard the soldier in charge tell off two others to investigate the two disturbances. Not enough, the lady still had 5 guards, and he'd given away his position to do it.<br/><br/>He got up, carefully this time, and picked up the offending bag. He'd half considered leaving it, but a proportion of the contents were packs of mint candy, which love he shared with his hero Miles Prower, and pre-packed sushi, another favourite of his, despite the fact that he lived in Colorado.<br/><br/>There were also a couple of magazines of a top shelf nature, to supplement the April 2030 Playfur magazine he'd had in an inside pocket in his backpack. He moved off along his original escape route, forcing himself not to run or make any noise despite the fact his vivid imagination populated the open doorway with a menacing black silhouette of a combat armoured soldier, gun already raised.<br/><br/>He made his way through the darkened building towards the back alley exit, intending to head along the parallel pathway towards the group, partly because he hoped to do something else to help, but mostly because he assumed the guy in charge would be rational, and heading towards people who wanted to kill you was a nuts enough move that they wouldn't be expecting it.<br/><br/>(I don't know whether I want him to be captured, just for the comedy value of the soldiers finding the Playfur magazine, or get out of this by the skin of his teeth.)
