[ A big, big chance. And with Steph off of him and back on the ground, Zack's scrambling to make fast work of some distance between them. A scramble that does get him out of reach of her.

At least up until he hits some kind of wall behind him. With a curse, he starts to hurry along it as quickly and quietly as he can. It pains him to know she's hurting- but it'll be worse if she still manages to hurt him in the process of this. The guilt of hurting the people you care around this place or even attacking them... Best to minimize it if he can. ]

[ She tries to crawl after him, but once he gets far enough away the urge dissolves. She lays there on the ground, wondering what to do. She knows better than to call Zack back to her. No doubt she would just want to kill him again... or maybe he would want to kill her.

She calls out to the area at large. ]

Hello?

[ Finally she rolls over onto her back and stares miserably into the darkness. She has no way of knowing if any of the nearby lights are even in the same room as her. And if the monsters are? She's totally screwed.

Better not to know. ]
