'Just keep swimming'
Rhemti hissed through the pain, even as it lessened. He felt the flow of energy from beside him, and even though Rhemti had no clue as to what exactly had happened, he knew Capris had acted to help him. There was no time to thank her, no time to stand and ready himself, for just as he started to move the sith advanced.
A pained "Oof," escaped Rhemti as he found himself flung back across the spaceport, back slamming into a stack of crates, briefly knocking the wind out of him. The sith was fast, far faster than he'd expected. It wasn't as if Rhemti was cocky about his abilities, but he found that the surprise of Nyaeli catching them off guard made him feel slightly less confident.
He stumbled, trying to collect himself, a hand pressed to his chest as his breath was haggard still. The other hand came up, waving to the civilians behind him as he barely got the words out. "Go--wheeze--evacuate. Run. We'll handle... this.." He flashed as reassuring a smile as he could at the people, which wasn't saying much with a gash in his side and a cough in his throat, but he was trying.
