"Seamus" she repeated back to him. "Lovely name" she said with a smile. He was not like many Shifters she had come across before. She wasn't sure what it was about him but she was interested. When he showed interested in food and drink she began to lead the way down the street. When Seamus began speaking of where he came from she turned to look at him, giving him her full attention. But when he finished she came to a complete stop and stared at him, her mouth slightly open, the tips of her fangs just visibly grazing her pink lips. Escaped from a lab? She had never heard of any Shifter escaping from anything. 

"You...escaped from a...a lab?" she repeated, as if she couldn't understand English and comprehend what he had just said. Her face was in surprise as he obviously had given her new she had never heard before or didn't think was possible, something as grand as someone walking on water. "That's not...possible" she continued, seeing the look on her face and imaging what he must be thinking. She had so many questions for him. "I mean, how could you ever escape any facility meant to hold in Shifters? And...what did they do to you?" 

A sound down the alley way alerted Freedom to glance over her shoulder. Her eyes, seeing well in the dark, made out two figures, their police caps recognizable by shape. 

"Uh..." she said in barely a whisper. "We gotta go...like now." She grabbed Seamus by the hand and began speed walking forward. She gave a second glance behind her and realized they had been seen.
