Luckily, Alina's glamour was enough to distract the man for a crucial few seconds. Her strike even worked as intended, leaving him off balance. However, she hadn't been counting on him to retaliate in kind.
As the wind tossed sand and dirt into her eyes, she blinked them rapidly. Unfortunately, that wasn't enough to clear them. Growling, she flew up and away as quickly as she could manage. As she beat a hasty retreat, she kicked for the blurry figure that was her opponent. She wasn't really aiming for anywhere or anything in particular, just trying to ward him off.
Once she was at what she hoped was a safe distance, she would halt in midair, hovering. Scrubbing angrily at her eyes, she'd glare down at the man.
