(DOUBBBLE SHOOOOOOOCK)

A low-steady fall of footsteps could be heard throughout the streets, heavily masked by the running footsteps of the group in front of him. He quickened his pace a bit to keep up, his movements still masked by their aruptly louder ones as he slowed down near the alley entrance. Hmmm...

If he stood by the entrance, they'd notice him no matter what, and going in the alley with them seemed like an equally bad idea. He looked around for a brief moment, spotting the mandatory fire escape placed in every alleyway. It was a bit too high for him to jump on from the ground, but jumping on the dumpster then off the wall could fix that.

The problem would be not making any noise, or at least enough noise for them to notice. He lifted his left foot a bit, his shoe folding back to a bracelet around his ankle, then did the same for his right foot. His feet would make less noise, so he stepped back a bit then ran forward to execute his plan.

For the most part, it worked, though he winced a bit at the pressure on his hand. He quietly pulled himself up, walking up the fire escape stairs a bit as he then looked down the edge, just in time to catch a flash. He smirked as he stared at the group, then made a slight 'O' of surprise at the boy standing at the entrance to the alley.

When did he get there...? It didn't seem like he noticed him come up here, so it didn't really matter. Being a human he couldn't tell very well what was going on since he didn't have night-vision, but he could sitll hear fine. He chuckled a bit to himself, something which turned into a concealed cackle as he covered his mouth once several flashes occured through the alley.

He waited for his laughter to die down a bit, then looked by over the edge, a more amused grin than before watching everything unfold.
