She tries to shy away seconds too late the delay in reaction not caused by hesitation but by an old reflex to strike out rather than to recoil, her hand slicing to Ariadne's as if to reach out. She has none of her old improvised weapons though and her sleeve is caught. The break in her run and the drag on her sleeve cause her to stumble. Gravity has always been an automatic loss. There's no grace to her fall, just the trained reflex to lessen the impact. To be up and running in the least amount of time again. She is only dimly aware of where Ariadne has landed and she tries to angle her own away from her.
She does not cry out in pain and she's on her knees, turning to look at Ariadne, to evade a blow which may not come but it's safest to expect that it will.
