"Alright, lead the way."
There's no way he can write a message without her seeing, but he can leave a trail - even if it pains him to do so. He flicks one of his knives into his hand, leaves it stuck in the doorframe as they leave. He stops to rety his shoe at the car and leaves another.
As they drive, he dangles a hand casually out the window, distracting her with talk as he flicks knives into road signs to mark their way - he only has so many, so he focuses on the major ones and just hopes they're enough. Hopes that they can follow, jurisdiction or not.
By the time they get out of the car, he has one knife left - his switchblade.
This one he doesn't drop. Instead, he uses it to cut his hand, leaving a smear of blood on the car as he closes the door and then letting it drip as they walk.
