Running, running, running...

It was all he could do to get away from that accursed place. Ignoring the sweat dripping down his face and the soreness in his still-human joints, the young man forced himself onwards towards the lights of civilization in the distance. He didn't know what to expect out here in the open world, but surely it couldn't be worse than being there. It was this hope that kept him moving forward in spite of the pain. He could no longer smell the acrid smoke from the burning building, no longer hear the blaring sirens at his back.

And so, he kept running...

------

Finally able to run no more, the male stumbled into a quiet neighborhood, glad for the darkness of night shadowing his presence. Panting, he hid in a clump of bushes as he regained his breath and bearings. He was so tired....

Once his breathing went back to normal, the escaped subject carefully moved out of the bushes and up towards the nearest house. Cautious, he remained still to see if anything or anyone noticed him. To his relief, the only other presence besides his own that was out at this hour was a stray cat in pursuit of a rat.

Feeling like a rat himself, the male decided he'd be much safer inside. Besides, he needed to rest.

Trying the handle, he realized it was locked. Not surprising, but unfortunate. Letting out a sigh and glancing about once more for any potential witnesses, he held his hand out to the knob. He hoped he had enough energy.
Focusing on the lock, he tried to envision the parts of the lock, the bolt keeping the door from being opened. After one failed attempt, he finally 'found' the bolt and slowly retracted it so it no longer kept him from opening the door. Turning the knob, he slipped inside and promptly locked the door behind him.

Now even more tired, the male cautiously inched through the house, pausing only upon making out a soft looking piece of furniture in one of the rooms. It looked like a bench if anything, but it was soft and bulky in appearance.
Too tired to care of look for anything else, he stumbled over and draped himself unceremoniously onto the couch, sighing at the squishy feel. Blue eyes closed almost instantly under a shaggy mop of dirty blonde hair, the male falling asleep in less than a minute.
