Anakin wasn't out for more than a minute, if that. But when he came to he wished he'd stayed out longer because his face was throbbing. He winced and then regretted that and groaned.
Those were his first thoughts. The next were that nothing else hurt, which was odd. He was fairly sure people don't stay standing when they black out and he must have hit things on his way down. Right?
He didn't want to open either of his eyes, because one was near all the things that hurt, but only opening one meant using muscles to keep that other one closed. This was a terrible predicament.
He finally decided he could get away with opening his eyes just a sliver. And what he saw made him recoil and open his eyes fully no matter to his detriment.
Despite his apparent vulnerability being stretched out on the ground, he had enough spunk in him to say, "You just tried to kill me with a tennis ball!" It came out more like a groan than a full bodied invective at Ahoska. "Buddhist assassin. Why are Buddhist assassins after me?"
