Ara scrambled for the alcove she'd hidden in a few moments before, hair streaming behind her. A stray strand of lightning arced off a nearby crate, slamming into her ankle, sending the girl stumbling forward as agonizing pain shot up her right leg.
In an effort to avoid a pain-filled scream, the girl bit down on her lip hard enough to fill her mouth with blood. She slammed her back against the wall, dragging her leg with it. The smell of burnt flesh was stronger now, she resisted the urge to glance down at the wound. It wouldn't do her any good to see the damage, for now, she was wholly outclassed and needed to find a way out.
She spat a mouthful of blood onto the floor, her lip stinging. At this rate, she'd be lucky to walk out on her own two feet.
Her hiding place led to a dead end, the only door the one she'd entered through a few minutes ago. To reach it, she'd have to cross at least ten feet of open space with a very pissed off Force User between her and escape. She listened for movement, glad for the enhanced hearing that having no low-light vision had required her to develop. She'd have to surprise him when he got close enough and then make a mad dash for the exit.
"Lightning huh, not usually a good sign in my book." She chuckled, wincing when her ribs protested the movement.
