Atton ran.
Of course he did. He was a coward. He always had been. Running was what he did best, and... and that wasn't true, was it? He wasn't running because he was a coward; he was running because he knew. Knew, from years of experience fighting beside Jedi, that they weren't Jedi-- just idiots running around with lightsabers and Force tricks. Knew that Kreia was far more powerful than she had pretended to be during their journeys. Knew that Meetra was the only one with the ability to take her down.
And so while Kreia used a combination of Force power and manipulation to take down his compatriots one by one, well, he'd fled. Because he also knew that he'd be no use there, and there were still a ton of Sith between Meetra and the woman known as Darth Traya.
Atton wasn't a Jedi, no, but he was here to protect her. And that's what he planned to do.
( Which is why when he heard ashes and flame and grit snarl, 'And I get the fool', he stopped running. )
