Arla watched as Renata launched herself at the creature, hacking off a leg, which seemed to piss it off, and it looked like she caught a glob of acid in the process. The creature reminded her of a baneback spider except way larger.
Put your saber in its gut and leave it there! she shouted to Renata, tilting her head to the side and forming an idea. The creature would be quite unhappy about that, but that was to be expected.
Arla darted forward, narrowly clearing one of the legs jabbing at her before sliding under the creature as well and raising her hand. Green lightning burst from her hand and Arla empowered the weapon itself, turning it into a lightning rod that carried the energy inward until it dumped into the insectoid's innards, superheating them until bits of charred flesh burst out of various sides and eyes.
Arla only narrowly dove out of the way as it collapsed down where she had been only moments ago.
She let out a breath.
You good? she asked before turning to go through the same ritual to break these runes as she did before while Renata retrieved her lightsaber from under the creature.
They shattered and there was nothing left to stop the two women from going back to retrieve the kyber crystal, which was precisely what Arla did next, taking it to her ship and not looking back.
