This sounds like some rp scenario tbh
but,id take water.If I can hear it, that should mean its running, and if im not making too much noise, it could he muffle sounds.I can also hear it, and see if it leads to anything overly dangerous just by hearing it.(like a ledge for example)and also, sewers (sounds gross but..)sewers have exits and that could be a possible escape.Light could maybe be a trap, but they could also probably see me and run more after me,so thats out.And complete darkness isn't good, no sight can slow me down,and I wouldn't be able to tell if theres a cliff or something at the end.
