The cab driver took Thomas up on the offer. Cash was cash and an easy fare was an easy fare. Even with the spooky shit going on.
Daryl watched his prey get to the safety of the cab and didn't attempt to pursue from there. He was fast enough to follow, but only as a bobcat. Which would mean putting his bow away and stashing it somewhere with his clothes. Not exactly what he wanted to do while hunting.
His quarry for the evening was gone and he'd have to be satisfied he'd scared the crap outta the man. The way he dived for that cab said loads. Instead of all the extra effort that could have come from the pursuit, Daryl let the energy drain out of him slowly as he made his way to street level and into an alley. Called out to his friends and had them come near so he could thank them properly. A few with affectionate scratches. More with head rubs and purring.
All Thomas would see if he turned back to look was the group of cats moving en masse into one of the dark alleyways made all the darker by the limited brightenss of the street lamps. He could worry they were attempting to follow him to where ever the cab was dropping him off. They weren't, but he could worry about that for a while.
