Frowning, Shun caught the piece of paper. Though, he couldn't really read it too well. He guessed it was some sort of tip off. There were a few possibilities if that was the case.
There was a decent chance Titus had some role in this. This looked kinda like his writing. Damn that b*****d. Blowing his cover and s**t.
"Just a coincidence. Being of asian decent doesn't say much," he shrugged before glancing to one of the larger boys, "I'm taking a walk. That's what parks are for aren't they? Now if you excuse me.."
---
Something strange happened then as the girl managed to pin the demon. She... kissed him?

"Then allow us to escort you on your way." Apparently they didn't buy it for a minute or if they did they didn't care. They were itching for a fight one way or another.
"Get'em!"
Selveni had ducked back out of sight, being blocked by the friend she had met up at the butcher shop while the other guys that had laid in wait advanced. They all seemed to sprint together all five of them ready to aim some sort of assault on the reaper. Individually Shun no doubt had them bested in skill but as a group they pounced like ravenous piranha not making it very possible to fight one without being wailed on by another at the same time.
---
Titus' face fell a bit at the sudden turn of events, a light blush creeping on his cheeks as he huffed and looked away. "How boring...women. Honestly."

There were quite a few opponents here and quite frankly he was losing sight of his objective now. Then again, the job was pretty much compromised the moment she had been tipped off because then her schedule was altered from what it normally would be. This called for a calculated retreat.
Narrowing his eyes, he glanced to the side before suddenly disappearing and reappearing fifty feet away, where he continued to sprint off, hoping that headstart would be enough to keep them off of him for a few.
It seemed he was forced to be on the run a fair bit as of late.
---
The two were getting a bit friendly now as they got up and started to chat.
It was hard to say what exactly happened here.

The group was a little thrown off by the sudden disappearance of the reaper, all of them looking around madly until they finally spotted him a ways off. Without hesitation they bolted after him, some a little quicker than other's as they gave chase. One bad thing for Shun though is that he would find the group had stamina. They wouldn't be shaken off so easily. Apparently the prospect of a fight was too good to pass up, though it would be less of a fight and more of a beat down.
---
Titus groaned now that the fun was over and they were chatting away merry and happy like the whole thing never happened. "Beh, why is this job so terrible?

((Distance boost))
Shun could hear various shouts behind him, though some of them died down. A quick glance over his shoulder told him that four of them had fallen behind, but there was one guy right on his tail. Gritting his teeth, he halted suddenly to drive his elbow back, in an attempt to catch the one guy off guard.
---
After a little more chatting, the demon meandered on off, continuing down the street.

Apparently one in the group was a sprinter. Despite Shun's distance advantage the boil had closed the gap with ease, swift feet bringing him right on top of the retreating reaper in no time. As soon as he was close the guy threw a punch hoping to slow down Shun for the rest of the group. Not too many were that far behind and no doubt there would be no mercy.
The elbow jab left him grunting, a hand coming to his chest since the blow was too low to hit his neck or head. For now it wouldn't slow him down but no doubt it was going to be painful later.
---
"Finally," Titus muttered as he stood to his feet again and waited for a decent gap to form before he followed. "I hope you got her number or something, Jack." For a moment Titus thought of walking over to the girl and dropping a little hint that the pride demon was just gay and toying with her but he really didn't want to waist the time. Instead he continued on following behind Alreich.

About the same time that he connected with his elbow, he took a punch to the back which caused him to stagger forth. Hissing he reached back and shifted his weight to try and throw him down. The others were still a little ways back so he wasn't too concerned. Even so, he needed to get moving again really soon.
---
Rubbing his cheek as the girl had managed to land a pretty heavy blow earlier, he stopped by a reflective window to check himself out.

"Oof," Was the noise the guy made as he hit the ground, the wind being knocked from his lungs. He still had enough energy to attempt to hang Shun up though, kicking out with his feet at the reaper's legs. All he needed was seconds and the rest of his gang would be there.
--
Titus paused with another huff. "Yeah, check yourself out pretty boy. You'll be nursing that bruise for a while."

Shun had started to run again as he felt the downed guy's legs sweep his. Grunting as he hit the ground, he gritted his teeth before scrambling back to try and get his momentum back up. However, it seemed he wasn't moving quite as quick now. The badger claw wounds were starting to get tugged at with all the movement, making it a little harder for him to get going.
---
Frowning as he saw the bruise, Alreich soon grumbled. Apparently he wasn't so happy about his little weird outing with that girl just now because of it. Rubbing the bruise some more, he kept moving down the street, shoving some random kid off to the side as he passed up.

The little bit of lag time was all the rest of the group really needed. The others descended on Shun like wolves, punching and kicking as soon as he was withing reach to do so. There were only four at the moment but the fifth was still regaining himself, finally standing so that he could join the fray.
---
And so Titus followed. He was pretty sure he needed a container for his joy. Why was his job so lack luster and boring?

That trip had cost him too much time. Find himself being assaulted, Shun felt himself take a number of blows before he managed to start retaliating. He needed to not let himself get overwhelmed if possible. The Reaper launched out two strikes at the nearest people, aiming to strike the throat and temple respectively.
----
Strolling along, it didn't take too long before the swagger returned to his step. Turning the corner, he seemed to have spotted something and started to break off into a run.

The attacks came without pause one after the other. The only thing that cut into the rhythmic beating was when Shun decided to fight back. Two well aimed hits and two of the gang members were down, one out like a light the other one gasping as he tried to catch his breath crumpling to his knees.
"You'll pay for that!"
Two down, three to go. Now the others were being a little more cautious and arming themselves a little better. They took a step back to access the situation, two of the three pulling knifes from their pockets and flipping open the blade.
---
The walk was casual enough, Titus wondered if Dim Switch was heading home. The demon was almost at ease until the pride demon took off in a run. "What the..." Trying not to hesitate too much Titus picked up his pace but was sure to stay out of sight. What the hell had gotten into him?

Gritting his teeth, Shun stumbled a bit before breaking off into a run again. It took him a little longer to pick up enough speed. Adrenaline was rushing through him now, helping him keep moving. Once they were closer to the town area, he bolted up the fire escape of one building to see if the vertical ascention would slow down his pursuers.
And hopefully they couldn't fly.
His leg was starting to complain to him, but he figured if he could get enough distance ahead, he might be able to duck away somewhere to hide for a bit.
---
Alreich continued to run down the street. It was hard to say where his destination was exactly. Eventually a group of other demons ahead paused to look at the one running towards them. The pride avarice called out to them before picking up speed.

As like before speedy Gonzalez was right on Shun's tail. The boil didn't let up even as they entered town. The rest had fallen behind but not this boil. He wasn't about to let Shun escape.
As the reaper took to the fire escape the gang member watched for a second looking almost reluctant to climb. Then, he moved to the wall, his fingers digging into the brick with ease and pulling himself up that way like a lizard across the vertical surface. He couldn't fly no but that didn't make Shun any safer as he crawled with speed up the wall throwing a jab at Shun as soon as he was close enough to do so.
"Going somewhere?"
--
Titus wasn't sure what to make of what was going on up ahead. He kept back just enough to take in the situation though close enough he could follow without too much of a risk of losing Alreich. "What are you doing, Dim Switch?" He could see the other demons up ahead and had yet to determine if they were friends or foes.

With a grunt, Shun felt a sharp jab at his side, causing him to stumble. It was a good thing he hadn't been in the process of jumping to another roof right then and there. That would have been bad.
"Yeah. But it doesn't concern you," he hissed while summoning his daggers and making a swipe at the other guy.
---
Jumping up for a moment as he reached the others, he got into a big sort of group hug with the others there. Kinda a bro type group hug. Fist bumps were done and so were various bro shakes. After awhile, the group began to move on.
