He listens for the sound of the assassin's padded footsteps amidst distant sounds of shoes and running. And when he has a direction - towards the weapons, he waits... waits for his moment, the instant he hears the sound of metal scraping on cement, the weapon being retrieved, presuming the assassin must be picking it up - he knows where he is, and when the man is without weapon.
In that moment, he does not need eyes. He turns, coming to his feet, and lunges.
