She expected the blocks and was trying, for her part, to think a few steps ahead, but also, through the force, trying to read his moves as well. She knows hand to hand isn't her best. Give her her sabers and she would take on who ever the heck the Sith Lord turns out to be. She's battled Anakin AND Obi-wan once and held them off pretty well. Though she had been in a near death experience trace at that point, but... still.
Here she was fast, moving swiftly, trying to dodge a kick or a hit. Feeling it graze off her side or her thigh or her arm, giving back swiftly when she could. She felt blows land, but only in the same way, where they were deflected off their target and if she didn't move fast enough she'd miss blocking a blow herself.
When one blow caught her unaware from him, it knocked her back, which she rolled with, dropping to a hand to push herself away and flip back over to her feet, graceful, fast and steady. She slide back into a stance and hands up, palms flat, an let out a huff. "You're... fast."
