Protect the Child - Lily's Angels: Run From The Arcade

The Story

Lily Hunter has been kicked out of her home by her conservative Christian parents right after coming out as trans, and right before learning that she's a shapeshifter.

You are a group of monsters that visit the local arcade regularly, and Lily has run here to ask for help. The police are on the look for the creature she turned into when she nearly caused a car accident, so now you're sneaking out the back of the arcade, trying not to get caught by anyone looking for trouble.

Will you get this kid out of town before shit hits the fan?
