A flash of skirt told him his target was female.
A single flash from the other direction told him that it had been received.
The flash of pain told him his reaction hadn't been quick enough.
A flash of insight told him what to do.
The flash of anger in her eyes told him that was not the right thing to say.
A flash of intuition told her she was right.
The flashes of blazerfire from off to his right told him he had been too hopeful.
The quick, startled flash of a smile told him he'd struck home.
The quick flash as she lowered her eyes told him what he'd guessed.
Those flashes told a new tale of men of crime.
