The foremost man gave a cheesy smile and pulled out a brightly colored pamphlet depicting a sprawling 18th century mansion and several happy-looking, smiling people. On the front was...
"I am Mr.Padgeet, and the gentleman behind me is Mr.Shachtman." His companion waved non-chalantly. "And we come from West Brook Asylum."

Anthony nodded slowly thinking a moment, until it clicked. ''Oh, I see then...why is it youve come?'' He asked.
SIO! Get out of here, dont go near the front door, two men from an asylum of some sort... He muttered in his charges head, not giving anything away with his facial expression.

Mr. Padgeet's smile brightened. "We come by the request of a family friend who is worried about Miss Aoibheann and has called us to--hey!" The man's smile faded as he caught a glimpse of Siobhan's bright white blouse as she slipped out the balcony door.
Mr.Shactman, who was much bigger than his compadre, raced down the hallway, looking for a quick exit, so as to follow the fleeing Sio.

Anthony shook his finger. ''No way mister.'' He said. Suddenly, mysterious webs shot out and blocked every exiting hallway, so the only moveable space was six feet down the hall each way from Siobhan's door.
''Im afraid you two will not be taking anyone to that place.'' He said grabbing Mr.Padgeet by the throat and glarring heatedly at the other man.

Mr.Padgeet looked very much frightened. "Please, sir! If she has run, then there is no question of her sanity...we only wanted her for a few days, to see if she was in control of herself!" He said, squirming in Anthony's tight grip.
Mr.Shachtman grimaced at this and pulled a black walkie talkie from it's place on his belt-loop. "Attention! We have a runner. Siobhan Aoibheann, Female, Red hair, green eyes, about 5'2. Atempt to capture without injury to the paitent." He muttered into the device.

Anthony growled in anger and forcefully threw the man in his grip into the wall. ''You better hope they dont get to her before I do buddy.'' He growled going to the bigger man and punching him in the face right on his nose.
Sio, get into a safe place...Chee's...goto Chee's. Its a fortune telling place, a few blocks from here...tell her your a friend of mine and you need to be hidden, shell help. He said quickly hoping his charge hadnt already gotten into some deep shit.

Mr.Shachtman growled, pressing a beefy hand to his bloody face. "Sir, do not make us take you as well." He said, dark eyes glimmering.
...
Siobhan was frightened, and confused...who would have commited her? She could hear the tap of shoes on the pavement...people were following her.
And Chee's? Were...and who...?

Anthony laughed. ''Hah, take me....your a funny bloke...now, good night.'' He said punching him this time in the side of the head to knock him out cold.

Mr.Padgeet was still sitting with his back to the wall, eyes wide and breathing heavy.
His compadre fell with a heavy thump and, twitching gently, did not get up.
...
BAM!
Siobhan felt a slight stinging sensation in the back of her knee. She stopped for a millisecond, pulling the unknown missile out of her leg, then started running again.
Her vision began to get blurry, the colors of the world mixing together like a dripping oil painting, and she began to slow...

Anthony muttered something, and a moment later her was next to a falling Siobhan. He caught her and looked behind him. A dozen or so men and women followed them now. ''Oh, f*ck me and slit my wrists...''He said before he took off running with Siobhan firmly in his arms like a baby.

Siobhan could no longer see straight, but she could distinctly smell Anthony...he had a very unique scent. "Mmm...Tony?" She muttered dazedly.

Anthony glanced at her briefly as he ran. ''Yes, sweetheart..its me, your safe..just rest.'' He said. He sharply turned a corner then went down an alley, only to turn again. He veered to the left and went into a door. Cheerna's. He sighed at the spicey smell inside and walked to the back of the store. ''Sweetheart...I need some help, sorry to bother you again.'' Anthony called out.

Siobhan groaned weakly. "Wuh...where are we, Tony?" She asked.

''Madam Cheerna's...she is a friend...no worries, love.'' He replied looking up to Chee who was fixing a potion to make Sio wake back up from the drugs, and reverse whatever other effects thy might have had on her.
''An asylum...huh...interesting...you always get the odd ones hmmm lovely?'' She asked Anthony. He shrugged and looked down. ''Love em all anyway.''

Siobhan giggled dazedly and waved a hand at Tony. "Aww, hush, oinseach...." She muttered, her eyelids fluttering.
