Little Brother, chapters 17&18

Marcus and Ange decide to run away with Masha. I think that at the current point in hte story, it is kind of a good idea. That is because with the story about the prison in the middle of the bay, and about Marcus being M1k3y, he is a dead man in the eyes of the police and, more specifically, the DHS. To Marcus, running away is the only way to stay out of prison and possibly alive. The only thing that makes him hesitant is that he doesn't want his parents to have to go through him not comming home again. That's a reasonable reason to not go because I would be worried to death if my child didn't come home, even if i knew what happened to him before.
