Alex had his moment of screaming before gaining his composure. The noise choked off in his throat and he quickly turned, tripped over his own feet, then scrambled to escape toward a nearby alleyway. There he saw a group of men standing-- but did that matter? Alex figured that a hooded man with a weapon in his hands was far more dangerous than a bunch of weird looking dudes. Alex picked up speed and planned on leaping over the trio if they didn't move out the way... 

Of course, Alex realized how this looked-- like a giant predator beast was about to charge the three down-- hopefully they decided to flee rather than attack him. Hopefully.
