*About five minutes later, all three of the children were out and infront of the tower catching their breath. Eecheb points the way west, though it wouldn't be a strait line there. They would probably end up a few blocks from the peace once they got that far. With a heading to go on, and their breath, theirs once again the children are off like a shot in the night*

*As Mastema continued to "lull" Nana with his playing, Than made his way towards the barrier. He was in a quickly paced, limping walk because of his injuries* >< nng.... *The children would be able to catch up with him so long as they kept up their running pace*
Fenton: mew ._.
Than: iie... I'm fine...... *Than just prayed that Proto would be all right*

*The children would keep up their run, simply because Thanatos had a good start on them, and if they couldn't find him, then they were sunk. Back on level ninety-nine, Nana was indeed lulled and quickly becoming comforted by the toon. It was just the thing she needed to relax before her conversation to be*
Trilla: >.> Is Thanatos this way?
Eecheb: >_< Zio said so, so keep running!
Micha: . . . . . . .

*At the pace the kids were going, odds were they'd run right through the middle of the street and go right past the fallen Proto, which was lying on the sidewalk nearest them. What exactly put the robot in a disabled state was unknown*
Than: >< Almost.... just a little more..... *Than was about 100 meters from the barrier, with an opening waiting for him at the end of his run*

*The children were finally on the street Thanatos and Proto had been on. Spotting Proto they wondered if they should stop, though in doing so they might loose all changes of caching up with their brother*
Trilla: o.o Proto is hurt?!
Eecheb: >_< We can't stop or we won't catch Thanatos.
Trilla: o.o But Proto is--
Eecheb: I know!

Proto: *The fallen bot would remain inactive*
*If the children kept going it would not be long before they spotted their brother. He was now about 50 meters from the barrier and closing. If the children picked up the pace, they would spot the back of his yellow vest and his red arm in the distance, which in turn would probably encourage them to keep going*

*Eventually rounding a corner or two, they do spot their brother and what looked like a hole to outside. They had never gotten so close to the barrier wall before so this was completely new to them. They were starting to run out of breath and were about two hundred meters back. Trilla was pulled along by Eecheb to leave Proto where it was. This wasn't only Thanatos' escape, but the childrens' first real rebellion, and if they got outside, their first outting away from their home. Back in the tower, it seemed that neither Mastema nor Nana were aware of the unfolding escape of the children*

*At their current rate, the children were going between two to three times as fast as Than. So when Than covered the last 50 meters, the kids would have less than 100 to go. Within a minute, Than had reached the barrier, stopped for a moment, and then walked out. Than began his long trip to the dojo by foot*

*On a lingering note, Mastema's tune comes to a close and Mastema lets his hands rest on the key cover lightly, before pulling it down. After that, Mastema quietly got up and walked over to the bed, where he sat down besides Nana. Mastema then reached around Nana's back and lightly tugged her towards him, where she would be able to use him as a solid rest*

*The melody had made Nana somewhat placid, so she wasn't exactly going to fight Mastema. Plus it was more intimate this way, and would make it easier to talk about what she needed too. For the time being Nana's eyes were still shut, and her mind lingered on the ending note. Back on the streets, the children still had a ways to go, but with Thanatos now walking, it made things much easier. It would take another full minute before they ran straight through the opening in the barrier, keeping their eyes fixed on Thanatos. Now that they had caught up, they needed to be stealthy and thy needed to catch their breath too. Micha was again looking pale, so they would take it slow and rest when needed. Keeping a distant eye on Thanatos was their mission now, and so long as they could see him things would be ok. This new world outside of the citadel was huge and scary, and so it was just added safety not to let Thanatos out of their sight, lest they get lost. That was something they hadn't thought of in their mad rush to leave. They would follow Thanatos through the night, to his destination where ever it may be*
Micha: . . . . . . . . .

*Nana leans over slightly to place a kiss beside Mastema's lips, then nuzzles the man lightly. She was in a good mood, and ready to talk about a few things with Mastema, ranging from the lighter given to Eecheb by Orias, to questioning how some of Mastema's projects were going. To start things off how ever, Nana would start on what Thanatos had done*
--___--
So... Thanatos has finished the program already? How wonderful...! I hope Micha will thank Thanatos for his efforts.... somehow. I know, I will. He puts in so much effort for those three.

*Mastema returned the kiss and, as usual, allowed Nana to make herself comfortable against him* Indeed. I am sure Micha will express his gratitude some way. *He chuckled* Of course Thanatos does. It is part of one of his more basic philosophies. Now how did he put it? I believe it was somewhere along the lines of "If I can, then I should." It sounds simple... but I am sure there is more to it...

*Once she had found a relaxing spot to rest her head, Nana nods lightly to the remark. Indeed there was always more than simply what was on the surface, that was only natural to assume. Micha had been a little more animated at the dojo, something that was still taking place but that situation was currently unknown to Nana, though Mastema may have been aware. Soon after Nana would move onto other topics, the first of which she just needed to get off her chest*

Of course.

*Mastema was aware of Than's escape, but he'd yet to really learn that the children had followed him. His thoughts were also with his projects, like some of Nana's other thoughts* Hmm? *That was the only response he gave to Nana when hearing his name spoken*

I-- I'm sorry.
*As to what Nana was apologizing for, Mastema would just have to wait and see, unless he already had a guess. Nana seemed, slightly down trodden now, so there was obviously something weighing moderately on her mind*
