One second the kid's checking his phone, the next minute he's out of his seat and tearing down the street.  Norm's coffee-tea fusion drink is spilled as Bran's knee hits the bottom of the table when he leaps out of his chair.<br/><br/>"Hey, Junior," Norm calls out in alarm.  "Where are you--?"  It's no use.  Something seriously spooked the kid.<br/><br/>With a single glance to Miyo, Norm leaps out of his chair, and starts legging it after Bran.   It's really not a fair race, though--Bran is an experienced parkour runner and Norm has a rugby player's physique.  Well, without the missing teeth.   Still, he tries.<br/><br/>"Pardon me, excuse me, pardon me,"  he mutters, as he jogs down the sidewalk, keeping one eye on the boy when he can.   He's really not sure why he's chasing the kid, but he knows it's Important that he not lose him.  Bran is tied into all this somehow, and Norm can't let him disappear like the others.<br/>
