[Not Cut Out for Babysitting Blunders: Successfully escape the area]
Ah, there's the main problem. Mizuki scurries towards the bush, gesturing at the others to follow her through the shrubs and trees where the guards won't take notice of their passing silhouettes. The cat nuzzles against Jake's chest as he runs, often distracting him in his attempt to escape. If Garden and Olive weren't tagging along, there's no way she'd be able to control this kid on her own.
They stop only once they're in front of Jake's house back in the neighbourhood, a part of the street where there aren't any guards.
Not particularly because they're suspicious, rather Mizuki can't take the adrenaline of hanging around any more guards. Her previous endeavours still weigh deep on her conscience, each detail of the night stuck with her from the climbing till the… argument.
