Crossword Genius

Feels panicky and runs away (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

flees

'runs away' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

'feels panicky' is the wordplay.
'panicky' is an anagram indicator (I've seen this in other clues).
'feels' anagrammed gives 'FLEES'.

'and' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for flees that I've seen before include "flies" , "Runs away" .)
