English translation:dash
Explanation:
I've seen this one a lot in manga.

I usually put "dash" for this one...since the character is getting ready to quickly run off or is running off. Also, the word "dash" feels like it has a "sound" of running.

"Dash" by dictionary definition means: Run or move very quickly or hastily
