The Runaway is a child or teenager who runs away from their home and parents or guardians. They can do this for a variety of reasons, but there are six motivations commonly used in fiction: The Circus Runaway: A child wants to run away to the circus (or some other artistic ensemble) because they feel they are not appreciated by their parents or given enough attention. If successful, becomes a Circus Brat or The One Who Made It Out. The phrase "ran away to join the circus" served as a common expression but has lost traction in at least the western first world due to the circus itself not being present, although pretty much any artistic clique can serve the same purpose to a runaway who feels more at home there than where they left. The Abused Runaway: A child or teenager who runs away from a truly abusive or unloving parent. Much more serious than the first reason, but if done in sitcom, can lead to a Very Special Episode. The Attention Seeking Runaway: Often Played for Laughs variant, in which the child merely believes they are abused and more likely a Spoiled Brat whose departure is part of a tantrum at not having things their way. Their reason for running away is specifically to get the attention and concern of those they abandon and get doted over upon their inevitable return. Some of them want more time with their parents, who are often rich businesspersons or sometimes politicians, and less time with their families' nanny. Sometimes, they end up kidnapped by gangsters who hold them ransom in exchange for money from their parents. The Orphan Runaway: A child or teenager who runs away because they have no one left, nowhere to go. Often the most tragic of runaways and can sometimes lead the story to Grave of the Fireflies territory. The Vagrant Runaway: A child who realizes that they need a good old-fashioned soul searching and decides to pack their bags and see if the world is really that cold a place and hopefully open their eyes up. The Romantic Runaway: A teenager — often a female teenager — runs away to be with their lover because their parents disapprove of their relationship and forbid them to see each other. This can lead to Elopement if they get married. The Runaway may be going to a Runaway Hideaway. This trope so heavily overlaps with Starting a New Life that they're almost inextricably linked. Especially in the case of the Circus, Abused, Orphan, and Vagrant runaways, their plan is usually to start living in a different place, often as a different person. In the cases of the second and third types it can also involve not being able to return home. For the most part, all six runaway types can also overlap with Never Accepted in His Hometown. Has nothing to do with The Runaway Guys. Compare to A Pet into the Wild for domestic animals running away. Compare and Contrast Forced from Their Home, where someone isn't in this situation by choice. See Wanderlust Song for the musical variant. Sadly Truth in Television, especially for larger countries like India and the U.S. |

Adventure Time plays this for laughs in a sort of subplot-story arc where Lumpy Space Princess runs away from home and lives out in the woods. At the current time, she is still living on her own as a vagrant. The silly thing is her parents are very caring people (admittingly, they were nastier during their initial appearance, they end up looking different and acting kinder in later episodes.) But LSP is a major drama queen who thinks they're stifling her. |

Pact: Blake Thorburn, is an Abused variant, having fled his family home due to the toxic environment of his Big, Screwed-Up Family, which had torn themselves apart in infighting over a valuable inheritance, to the extent that his mother deliberately sabotaged a college dorm and left students without a place to stay mid-semester just to inconvenience his cousin. After Blake's grandmother declared that only a granddaughter could inherit, his parents gave up on winning the inheritance for themselves, but continued to attack the other heirs and were themselves targets, until Blake, unable to deal with the stress, left to stay with friends and never came back, living on the streets of Toronto. He later notes that his parents stopped looking about a month, and had a new child a year and a half later. | |

Worm has a few instances: Taylor Hebert, the heroine, is cornered by her dad about her recent odd behavior and ditching school for weeks. Faced with the untenable choices of confessing she's a supervillain or lying to him, she avoids the problem by jumping ship. Lisa runs away from home because her parents try to exploit her superpower to enrich themselves, all while pretending that they still love her despite blaming her for her brother's suicide. Amy tries to run away from home, but between her severe personal problems and the gang of psychopaths trying to recruit her, ends up crossing her own Moral Event Horizon twice during a nervous breakdown. |

It's Not the End of the World: Karen's brother Jeff runs away and is missing for several days, apparently out of hope that it would bring his separated parents back together and force them to reconcile. It fails, as Karen's parents instead end up having one of their biggest fights ever, and Karen is forced to finally admit that her parents not only won't reconcile, but are better apart than together. | |

Prince Ironfist runs away to the circus in Might and Magic VI. It's not because he feels unappreciated or not given enough attention, he just decided that he wanted to have a closer look at the circus (being the crown prince of a kingdom whose king is missing and whose regent is a paladin, he wasn't about to be given permission, so he took matters into his own hands after being inspired by having snuck out with you for a quick visit to the circus). He's quick enough to return to the castle once you catch up with him (the circus moves around). | |

Selphie from Rune Factory Frontier. While she never outright states it, she couldn't be more heavy handed in hinting that she's the princess of a small kingdom who ran away from home. Another character will even mention that there's a small kingdom in turmoil because its princess went missing. Her motive for fleeing seems to be that she wanted to just find a quite place to read rather than always be in the political spotlight. | |

Umineko: When They Cry: Rosa tells how as a kid she tried to do this after her mother, angry both at the academic achievements and because one of her daughter's tutors confided to her a secret that Rosa had kept from her, subjected Rosa to a violent verbal outburst that reduced her to tears. So Rosa decided to run away and disappear into the witch's forest (despite her father Kinzo having forbidden both her and her older siblings to enter it) out of spite against her whole family. On her escape, she accidentally discovered a mansion where her father was secretly raising an illegitimate daughter, Beatrice, and shortly after their meeting, the two girls decided to flee Rokkenjima Island together, which resulted in Beatrice's tragic death ( happened because Rosa naively suggested she climb down a ravine) which forced Rosa to return home immediately. Nowadays, the adult Rosa deeply suffers and constantly blames and hates herself for this tragedy. | |

Sure enough, she left with him to escape an unacceptable marriage and pursue her dreams of occult scholarship, only to learn too late how much of a monster he is. We also later learn that Dunya is trans and his family would not be supportive. He changes his gender presentation, renames himself, and becomes the scribe who is recording the story. | |

In Inside Out, Riley almost becomes this when Anger, under the assumption that Riley can create new core memories if she returns to her old home in Minnesota, plants the idea in her head to run away from home. Anger eventually realizes his mistake and tries to remove the idea, but the control panel locks down, as neither Anger, Fear, nor Disgust have the ability to sway Riley from her decision. It's only the timely return of Sadness, and her ability to remove the idea, that causes Riley, already on the bus to leave, to suddenly feel pangs of guilt and return home, horrified at what she almost did. Fortunately, her parents fully understand. | |

Cassandra Cain / Batgirl II ran away from her Professional Killer father at somewhere between six and nine years of age. She was on the run until she was taken in by Barbara Gordon at age seventeen, meaning she spent anywhere between eight and eleven years on her own, a remarkable feat since she was unable to speak, read, or understand speech. Very little is known of what happened during those years on the run, aside from a brief flashback of her scavenging after wild dogs. | |

A Dovahkiin Spreads His Wings gives this as a backstory to Jon Whitewolf. After learning he actually wasn't the son of the man who raised him but his nephew, he decides to ditch Winterfell in order to seek his paternal relatives on another continent. His nineteen-years-old self acknowledges it was a terrible idea, and it led him to find himself lost in Skyrim, in which he had rather a bad time until he took several levels in badass. | |

Nikita: Although it's not delved into in detail, a key element of both Nikita and Alex's (and Amanda's) backstories is that the were both teenage runaways. While Nikita was the second type of runaway, escaping her abusive foster parents when she was thirteen, Alex was a combination of the abuse and orphan runaways: orphaned first, she was sold to sex traffickers. While she eventually escaped, she had nowhere to go and so ended in the streets until she was found by Nikita. | |

In "Franklin Runs Away," Franklin and Snail briefly become runaways after a bad day: being scolded by Mr. Owl at school for talking during reading time, chastised for supposedly not playing fair at sports, Bear getting angry at Franklin for having a library book that's almost overdue, and Mrs. Turtle getting upset at them for making a mess after they decide to make their own snack because she was too busy painting the shed to make them one. Their refuge is the treefort, but it doesn't last very long at all, as Snail quickly points out the flaws in the idea. Then, when they go back to Franklin's' place to get some supplies, they get found hiding in the closet after hiding there because Bear knocked on the door. He brought the book back, having renewed it. When Mrs. Turtle finds them in the closet, they blurt out their whole "living in the treefort" plan. | |

Harry Potter: Harry runs away from the Dursleys after he blows up Aunt Marge in Prisoner of Azkaban. In Goblet of Fire, Harry briefly considers running away from Hogwarts rather than facing the First Task. Harry considers it again in Order of the Phoenix, a bit more seriously than in Goblet of Fire. Perhaps aware that Harry is contemplating this, Dumbledore sends him a message "stay where you are", via the sarcastic messenger Phineas Nigellus. Sirius did this as a teenager and wound up being taken in by James' parents. |

Calvin and Hobbes: One early story arc had Calvin "seceding" from his family to go live in the Yukon. He got into a fight with Hobbes over who gets to lead the expedition and decided to quit, going home and leaving Hobbes in the woods. As Hobbes is, at least when Calvin's not around, actually a stuffed animal, the parents have to go out searching for him. In another arc, he decided to leave the Earth with Hobbes and go live on Mars because of how grown-ups were treating the environment. He eventually comes back home when he realizes it's also his responsibility to help fix the Earth (although whether the journey actually happened or was just his imagination is another story...). Another story arc had Calvin accidentally push the family car into a ditch, and he decides to run away from home before his parents found out. Apparently, he didn't do a good job running very far, because his mom almost immediately finds him upon recovering the car, suggesting he'd barely even made it out of the backyard. |

Samantha Fish's "Daughters" mentions this as one of the ways that "daughters break your heart". "Another broken family; Runaway and a casualty." (Curiously, her song "Runaway" has nothing to do with this trope.) | |

Robin (1993): After killing Karl at school Young El runs away from home and spends the rest of his short life on the run. While he would have been expelled for having a gun on campus a decent lawyer could have to argued the killing was in self defense since Karl pulled a gun on him and threatened him with it before he shot him. During Batman: No Man's Land Tim comes across an enclave of teenagers living in the tunnels beneath Gotham that are led by some kids from the suburbs that had run away to Gotham prior to the government closing it off. They are an odd group that he thinks are disconnected from reality and acting like they're in some fairy tale but do well enough for themselves until they run into Mr. Freeze. |

Superfudge: In the first chapter, "Guess What, Peter?", when Anne announces that she's having a new baby to Peter and Fudge, the former doesn't take it well, fearing that the new baby will be a repeat of the latter. Peter doesn't want to stay in his apartment waiting for the new baby to be born, so he packs his bags and attempts to run away to either his best friend Jimmy Fargo's apartment or his grandmother's house. When he tells Anne this, she points out that the former has a one-bedroom apartment and the latter's in Boston, visiting Aunt Linda for the week. Reluctantly, Peter stays because he's hungry and although he doesn't want to admit it to her, Anne has brought up valid points. In the third chapter, "Another Something Wonderful", when Warren announces that the Hatcher family is moving to Princeton to accommodate his new job, Peter is not happy to hear this, having had a bad experience the last time he was at Millie and George's house there. Anne telling him that he and Fudge will be attending the same school when they move to Princeton doesn't exactly help, so he considers running away once more. Anne tells Peter that he can't just run away every time he hears something he doesn't like. In the twelfth and last chapter, "Tootsie Speaks Out", Peter refuses to take Fudge on a picnic that he and his friend Alex are having. In response to this, Fudge and his friend Daniel run away to a distant bakery. Peter worries that Fudge ended up getting hit by a car or drowning in the lake, but is relieved to find him safe at the bakery. When Warren and Anne find out that Fudge and Daniel ran away without telling anybody, they are angry at them, and punish them by taking their bikes away for a month, at Peter's suggestion. |

Jem: Deirdre, one of the Starlight girls, runs away in the two part episode "The Music Awards". After Jerrica kept blowing her off, the straw came when Jerrica blew her off as Jem. Fortunately, Jerrica/Jem learned her lesson and Deirdre eventually came back home. Roxy's past isn't discussed much but we know she ran away as a teenager and has lived on her own from then on. One episode involves several of the Starlight Girls running away. They are called out on this as their foster home is amazing. In the same episode a boy ran away from his abusive dad but was told to visit a councelor instead of living on his own. |

Berserk: Isidro; it isn't exactly clear which type he is, but from what is shown, he is probably a rare case of Circus Runaway. Rosine was an Abused Runaway. Her first attempt didn't go very well, and when she came home it got worse. And then she found the Behelit. Guts himself runs away from his first mercenary band after having to kill his adoptive father, Gambino, in self defense. |

Avatar: The Last Airbender: Toph Beifong. Her parents weren't physically abusive, but were definitely cold, stifling and way overprotective. When she ran away from home for precisely that reason (and to follow Aang), they instead assumed Aang had kidnapped her, and go as far as to hire the man who actually did kidnap her that very same night to get her back. Ty Lee preferred life as a circus acrobat to life among upper-end Fire Nation aristocracy, but Princess Azula "convinced" her to come away and help hunt her brother down. Aang as well, running away from the Southern Air Temple because the monks were going to send him away. |

Doraemon: There are quite a few stories focusing on Nobita leaving home, mainly to escape his mother. Nobita being Nobita, he always chickens out at the end. One manga story (adapted into the anime episode, "Nobita Spends 3000 Days on a Deserted Island") pulls the Like You Would Really Do It card by having Nobita actually running away from home successfully, where he then ends up stranded on a deserted island for 10 years. It took a decade for Doraemon to eventually find Nobita (somehow, despite having a few dozen people-seeking gadgets at his disposal) and reunite with him, but since Status Quo Is God, Doraemon then uses the Time Cloth to de-age Nobita by ten years and travel back to the past, and the next story continues as usual. Doraemon: Nobita and the Birth of Japan has Nobita, Shizuka, Suneo, Gian, and even Doraemon leaving home together for various reasons. They time travel to the ice age and end up being entangled in an ancient clan warfare. |

The Essex Serpent: Naomi Banks is a young teen who disappears from her home. People are convinced she was taken or killed by the Serpent. It's revealed she ran away from home when she couldn't cope with her life anymore; one aspect is her ending friendship with Joanna Ransome and her knowledge of their class differences, and another her drunk of a father who's not unkind but irresponsible. She actually didn't run away far; she cut her hair and disguised herself as a boy and joined a local homeless beggar. She earned some money with her art skills and sketches. When Joanna recognises her, Naomi returns home to her father and the two girls become friends again. | |

Lilith Pleasant in The Sims 2 is in danger of becoming the abused runaway type. Her relationships with her parents and sister are so bad that it usually only takes one or two bad interactions for her to pull a Screw This, I'm Outta Here and run off. If this does happen, you have 24 hours to call the police before she's gone for good and won't return until right before she becomes an adult. Other teen Sims are also at risk of running away if their own relationships with their households are low enough. | |

In the Mystara setting's kingdom of Karameikos, it's an unspoken tradition for human youths to run away from home and live under an alias for a few months, to prove to themselves and their families that they're capable of taking care of themselves. Hard feelings aren't usually involved, and the runaways often find jobs with distant relatives who know exactly who they are, but play along with the ruse that they've hired a stranger. An even more lighthearted variant of the Circus Runaway. | |

The Gargoyles: The Goliath Chronicles episode "Runaways" is naturally about this, with Brooklyn fleeing from the Manhattan Clan after an argument with Goliath. He comes upon some teenagers who similarly ran away from home to live in the New York streets after an argument with their parents; both parties eventually realize that they were just being looked out for and return home. Later episode "A Bronx Tail" briefly has a young Amish boy running from home to see the world, but he immediately goes back once he finds out how dangerous the woods outside his home are; his parents probably didn't even know he was gone. | |

Among The Loud House fanfics, stories about Lincoln running away after getting fed up with his sisters or feeling unwanted are very common, to the point that it is starting to become a cliche. Some notable examples include Guy token, Trustworthy, What is a Person Worth? and Big Top Lincoln (which uses the "Circus runaway" variety). Not surprisingly, the (infamous) episode No Such Luck only increased the number of Lincoln-Runs-Away stories. The fic No Such Luck, No Such Love subverts this trope: Lana catches Lincoln running away in the middle of the night due to all the mistreatment he's received and tries to stop him, but fails, which sets us up to believe that the story will go down this path like the fanfics mentioned above did, but then it's revealed that it was just a nightmare that Lana was having. In Lincoln is Done, Lincoln runs away to stay with Clyde. Its parody, Lincoln is Dumb, has Lincoln run away overseas instead. Parodied in Lincoln Runs Away, where Lincoln plans to run away, but Lana gives him requests and by the time she's satisfied, he's forgotten what he wants to do. Burning Secret: Discussed when Lincoln suggests running away and living in a different state. Parodied in Project Runaway, in which Lincoln was just lost and his family thought he ran away. |

Weathering With You has a cast of runaways in the form of it’s main heroes: Hodaka Morishima is the Abused Runaway. Distraught over his father beating him up, among other possible reasons that can only be guessed at, he runs away to Tokyo in search of a better life...and it does once he falls for the story’s atmokinetic heroine. Keisuke Suga is the Attention Seeking Runaway. It is strongly implied that he was tired of living under his brother’s shadow,and, like Hodaka, he too ran away where he found his true love and gave birth to a daughter. Hina Amano and her brother Nagi are the Orphan Runaways. They are forced to make a run from the law with Hodaka when it is revealed that they are living alone. |

The Somewhat Cracked Mind Of Uchiha Itachi: The Sand Siblings are the Abused variant. Temari and Kankuro are isolated while Gaara is outright feared and hated in Suna. So when the Konoha 12 makes the effort to befriend them, they temporarily defect from Suna and side with Konoha during the Invasion. In the aftermath, they refuse to go home unless their father is ousted from power. They get by thanks to the charity of their new friends and Konoha's willingness to temporarily induct them into their ranks as thanks for aiding them. | |

Sabo from One Piece is possibly a tragic example of the abused runaway; after his boat his destroyed by a Celestial Dragon, his final fate is left vague. It was eventually revealed what occurred. He survived long enough for the Revolutionaries to take him in. He had amnesia about his life, except his hatred for his family. He regained the memory of his beloved brothers Ace and Luffy... when he read about Ace's death in the newspaper. He has appeared post-timeship in the Dressrosa arc, where he has become the second-in-command to Dragon while claiming Ace's fruit and helping Luffy, leading to a tearful reunion. | |

Pokémon: Pokémon: The Series: Pokémon: The Original Series: James ran away as a child. The rest of his past is confusing; however, the one concrete detail is that he was a rich kid with a pet Growlithe who ran away from home to avoid marrying his abusive fiancee. Pokémon the Series: Sun & Moon: Lillie temporarily runs away to Poni Island with her brother Gladion in order to find a way to save their mother. When the rest of the heroes hear about this, they go after them since they want to help save Lusamine as well. A good thing they did, as they never would've saved her without Nebby. Ruby in Pokémon Adventures ran away because his father wouldn't let him compete in Contests. Turns out Norman was going to let him do it anyway. |

It didn't work out and her friend nearly died when he tried to break through the walls. Reki was further ostracized by her former friends, which made her turn into a bitter teenager before becoming a Former Teen Rebel as an adult. | |

Darkest Dungeon 2 has a class called the Runaway. She ran away from an orphanage at an early age because the caretakers were abusive, and ended up being taken in by a kindly family. This being the world of Darkest Dungeon, things don't really end well. She accidentally starts a fire, makes it worse by trying to put it out and has to get out of the house to escape it, only to learn that by doing so, she's just abandoned her new family and left them to die by burning to death. Ouch. | |

Kodaka is understandably confused at first when she shows up, but when he asks her how she knew where he lived, Maria says the "old hag" (her sister, Kate) showed her where she lived. Kate constantly calls to check up on her, and after spending the night, Maria goes back, largely because Kobato telling her running away the night before was childish. | |

In two different Pippi Longstocking adaptations, the 1970 Swedish Pippi on the Run and 1988's The New Adventures of Pippi Longstocking, Tommy and Annika decide to run away from home, either because their parents punish them for staying out too late with Pippi (1970), or because their father dislikes Pippi and doesn't want them to be friends with her (1988). In both versions Pippi goes with them and the three have an array of adventures before they eventually go home. This doesn't happen in the books, but was an original storyline in the 1970 version, with the 1988 version drawing on the latter. | |

One story in Miss Kobayashi's Dragon Maid features the young dragon Kanna running away to New York City following an argument with Kobayashi, with her befriending fellow runaway Chloe while she's there. For Kanna, her situation isn't too bad, as she just needed some time to cool down and focuses on returning home after seeing someone who, from the back, resembles Kobayashi (it also helps that Tohru kept watch on her from the background during most of this). Chloe, on the other hand, was in New York city in the first place because, while running away from home, she was kidnapped by gang members who had an issue with her father, with her situation being much worse had Kanna not intervened (first by taking out the gang members chasing Chloe with a mere finger poke, then by going "full dragon" mode when she got recaptured). | |

The Magicians: Alice is revealed to have run away from home in order to go to Brakebills: following the death of her brother on campus, she wasn't offered the entrance exam on the grounds of possible instability, but with Alice's parents descending into self-absorbed madness, she couldn't bear to be with them any longer. As she recounts, she took as many buses and cabs as she could to reach the border of the school grounds and then walked the rest of the way before using her own magical knowledge to brake into the campus. In the end, the Dean gave her an entrance exam for lack of anything better to do with her, granting her entry on a near-perfect score. For good measure, her parents barely noticed she'd gone! | |

The video for the Pat Benatar song "Love is a Battlefield" has the main character run away from home after a fight with her parents. She ends up dancing at a sleazy club (in the original concept for the video, she was a hooker) until one of the co-workers gets mishandled by their boss; she retaliates with a fierce group dance routine and by throwing a drink into the boss' face before she and the other workers leave the club. Sadly, Philip Cruise, the boy who played Benatar's kid brother in the video, later ran away from home in real life; he grew up to become a professional actor. | |

In another MLP fanfiction Pound and Pumpkin Cake's Adventures (and Misadventures) in Potty Training, Pound Cake doesn't see the point of learning to use his potty chair if eventually he's going to have to give it up for the toilet anyway. He considers running away from home and becoming a "potty rebel", destroying all the potties and flushing everyone who disagrees, but he doesn't follow through in his threat. |

In elementary Nitori from Wandering Son attempted to run away because she felt underappreciated. She packed her bags and went to the park, but Surprisingly Realistic Outcome: her balloon flies away when she goes to the park and she drops her food. She returns home the same day and no one notices she "ran away". | |

Buffy the Vampire Slayer: Buffy runs away at the end of season two, not because her mother was unloving, however, but her mother found out she was the Slayer, she had killed Angel, and she was wanted for murder. And in "Anne", she meets Lily/Chanterelle, a Sunnydale teen who had also run away to Los Angeles. It's heavily implied that she was abused at home. |

Amphibia: It was not until "True Colors" we found out how Anne Boonchuy, Marcy Wu, and Sasha Waybright came to Amphibia. In the beginning, Marcy receives a text from her dad asking her to return home after finding an entry in a book about the Calamity Box. Her parents told her that her dad has a new job out of state and that they were moving. Marcy ran away upset when she found the Box at the Pawn Shop. Near the end, the girls found out Marcy knew about the box all along and believed Andrias when he said he would take the three of them on adventures. Marcy did all this because she wanted to runaway from her dad. | |

Long Live the Queen: Briony is initially portrayed as an attention-seeking runaway that upon further investigation overlaps with the abused variant. Her stated reason for running away to go on an adventure to the Old Forest is because she thinks it's full of ancient treasure and that everyone will praise her... but an observant Elodie might realize her true motivation is because her parents keep isolating her at boarding school and refuse to let her come home or even explain why, and she thinks this is the only way they'll stop distancing themselves from her. This is taken completely seriously: Not only is Briony's neglect a symptom of the dysfunction and trauma that plagues her entire family, but if Elodie doesn't either rescue Briony from the forest or stop her from going at all, Briony will be killed by the monsters there, and her uncle will attempt to murder Elodie in vengeance. | |

Penny in The Rescuers, though in her case, she's already an orphan. She spends the first part of the movie trying to run away (that is to say, escape) from her kidnappers, and fails each time, until the mice of the Rescue Aid Society turn up to help. The cat back at her orphanage, Rufus, also wrongly thinks she ran away from the orphanage because she was sad about not getting adopted, but Bernard and Bianca quickly realize that she was actually kidnapped. | |
