Her nails dig into the floor below her as a tugging Force pulled her backward. The screeching and cracking of her nails we're the only audible sound besides her rapid heartbeat. (__) felt her whole entire body drag against the concrete, her chest burned due to the lack of oxygen. She refused to breathe, she thought if she were to inhale she would lose her grip and fall back into the Shadows.

It was agony. Her chest seized, once, twice, and she held out as long as she could; until she finally let out a wheezing cough which caused her finger to loosen. Muttered laughter echoed behind her and continue to repeat as if it were a broken record player. The deadly cold hand around her ankle grip tighter, it's Nails digging into her skin. She gave a strangled cry, trying to drag herself towards the light.
