Your question is all over the place, but I will try to address each point. Custody and emancipation are two separate issues. In the United States, emancipation is by court order only and in order for a minor to become emancipated, they must prove to the court that they have a job earning sufficient income to support themselves without any help. This would include having their own residence, paying all of their own bills, transportation costs, insurance, food, utilities, etc. For a minor to do this, they'd have to have a full time job that paid over the minimum wage.
On to custody. If the court feels the child's best interests would be served by placing him or her in the custody of a non-related emancipated minor, it might happen if neither of the biological parents or grandparents would be suitable. The state would conduct a thorough investigation and report their findings to the court before a custody order would be ruled. Otherwise, the child would be remanded to the care of the state and if that happened, regaining custody by anyone would be a long, difficult and expensive battle.

Do you need temporary custody papers to move with someone in a different state?
It is generally recommended to have temporary custody papers in place when moving with a child to a different state to ensure legal compliance and avoid potential issues.

Consulting with a family law attorney would be beneficial in understanding the specific requirements in your situation.

No. If the parent is a fugitive then the child is in danger. If the situation is brought to the attention of the court that has jurisdiction the court can issue an order that terminates that parent's legal custody. If the authorities can catch up with the child they can take physical custody away from the fugitive and kidnapping will be added to the charges.

If One parent has full custody but child wants to live with noncustodial parent?
They recently changed the laws of custody, No one parent has full custody UNLESS they see the other parent as unstable and unfit. If the parent you want to live with has been deemed unfit as a parent then it will have to be taken to court or you can contact certain child organizations to give you more details about how to leave your current home and return to the home of an "unfit parent" However if one parent obtained full custody of the child and the other parent was not deemed unfit as a parent, you may still live with them because of the recent change in custody laws, stating no one parent can have full or primary custody. (in other words, if your mom has full custody and your dad has none ((Also assuming the father hasn't been charged with being a drug addict, alcoholic, or financially unstable etc.)) you may live with the father)
Is there a difference in a parent who has custody of the children but not married vs the parent that does not have custody and is getting married and is fighting for custody of the children?
Being married or unmarried is not much of a determining factor when it comes to custody nowadays. In order to have custody changed you would need to prove that either your household and parenting abilities are substantially better than the other parent, or that their situation is detrimental to the children. Having a spouse does not necessarily mean that you are better able to care for the children, especially if the other parent has had custody for a significant length of time without the children having any problems in a single parent household.
