[ "Getting going" sounds like a great plan. JJ is incredibly aware of how unequipped he is to deal with this kind of situation. He's just a guy, an average guy that doesn't get into fights with normal people much less thugs. It's best to leave this kind of encounter to the authorities, because he'd probably just get in the way anyway.
Except—except does Cain count as "the authorities"? He'd seemed like another civilian when JJ had met him on the beach, not that he knows what exactly the other man is doing out here, in this shady place so late at night. But then, JJ's here too.
He's sick, heavy headed and congested, but maybe he needs to stop chasing after the normality of his old life. Maybe he needs to step up to the new plate he's been handed. Besides, it's kind of outrageous that he'd just leave a friend behind.
He hasn't gotten very far when he decides to turn back, and he has no plan, can hardly keep up with what's going on, but he grabs a planter that he stumbles across all the same and swings it at one of the shady looking men, who thankfully seem to be armed with knives rather than guns. ]
Hey!
[ Though if you're in the mood to run, Cain, JJ wouldn't be opposed. ]
