Val exhaled and was still doubled over. This was moments before the Ranger commanded her to use the fire escape. She glared at him at once, “Do I look like I’m in any condition to-” She heard the droid voices, cursing at once as she climbed onto a dumpster to reach the fire escape.
She wasn’t exactly known for her athleticism, nowhere close to a trained Ranger or soldier. Nevertheless, she was doing her best to quickly climb up. One of her designer shoes fell off to land on the Mando’s face, but she didn’t notice. She screamed as a shot went off, barely missing her. It was almost enough for her to let go and fall a bit, but she grabbed on again with one hand. If Roland was climbing up beneath her, he would get a full barefoot to the face as Val pressed off to keep climbing in a scramble.
Full blown panic set in as she climbed for her life, her heart pounding against her chest. She finally reached the top, grabbing the edge of the roof and hoisting herself up. She took a few steps and collapsed on the ground, rolling onto her back. Her eyes were wide with shock and she could still hear the droids on the ground.
“I want to go home…”
