>You send out more arrowheads as she turns and finds her footing again. She sees them a bit too late, several of them grazing her as she tries to leap back. Still, her jump carries her back a couple yards, where she lands on her feet close to a couple of trees.

>Both; you have flats right now, though perhaps with a slightly exaggerated heel for effect.
>You close in on the brute, and see that she is moving to duck behind a large tree to the right, You haven't quite lost track of her yet, thankfully.

> Fly ourselves toward that tree, aiming to move just a bit past the tree on the other side of the tree from the brute, so we'll be able to see what is the space "behind" the tree from our current perspective (i.e. the place she is moving toward to duck behind said tree).
