Insta lazer projectile spawns in the middle of me?

Please encode Lua code in the Lua block code tag (look for the Lua icon in the editor).

I've already made a "Lightning bolt" which is just a long cilinder part that I've Inserted into Replicated Storage Called "LightningBolt"

Inside the Starter GUI I put this script in a local script

    local ReplicatedStorage = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage")
    local UserInputService = game:GetService("UserInputService")

    local plr = game.Players.LocalPlayer
    local Char = plr.Character or plr.CharacterAdded:Wait()
    local Remote = ReplicatedStorage.LightningEvent
    local Mouse = plr:GetMouse()

    local Debounce = true
    local Key = 'E'
    local Animation = Instance.new("Animation")
    Animation.AnimationId = 'rbxassetid://2464206362'

    UserInputService.InputBegan:Connect(function(Input, IsTyping)
    if IsTyping then return end
    local KeyPressed = Input.KeyCode
    if KeyPressed == Enum.KeyCode[Key] and Debounce and Char then
        Debounce = false
        Remote:FireServer(Mouse.Hit)
        local LoadAnimation = Char.Humanoid:LoadAnimation(Animation)
        LoadAnimation:Play()
        wait(3)
        Debounce = true
        end
    end)


And in Server Script services I put this script

local ReplicatedStorage = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage")


local Remote = ReplicatedStorage.LightningEvent
local Lightning = ReplicatedStorage.LightningBolt


local Damage = 10

local ServerDebounces = {}
Remote.OnServerEvent:Connect(function(plr, Mouse)
 if not ServerDebounces[plr] then
  ServerDebounces[plr] = true

  local Char = plr.Character or plr.CharacterAdded:Wait()

  local LightningClone = Lightning:Clone()
  Lightning.CFrame = Char.HumanoidRootPart.CFrame * CFrame.new(0,0,0)
  Lightning.Parent = workspace



  ServerDebounces[plr] = false


  local Debounce = true
  LightningClone.Touched:Connect(function(h)
   if h.Parent:FindFirstChild('Humanoid') and h.Parent.Name ~= plr.Name and Debounce then   
    Debounce = false   
    local Enemy = h.Parent.Humanoid
    Enemy:TakeDamage(Damage)
    wait(1)
    LightningClone.Effect.Enabled = false
    wait(1)
    LightningClone:Destroy()
Lightning:Destroy()
    wait(3)
    Debounce = true
   end
  end)
 end
end)

I know that there are still some things that are not needed and I can fix that latter, but I cant wrap my head around how to make the projectile that's pretty long start near me, and the other end where my curser is, this script just brings the middle of the "lazer" and places it infront of me, which isnt where I want it.

I honestly thought just taking away body-velocity and making a projectile script would work, but it seems Im not too bright

Format the other part of the code in a codeblock. xPolarium 1388 — 5y

I put it in the server script service Yonatann12 0 — 5y

Im going to assume though that I'd use raycasting to fix the issue  Yonatann12 0 — 5y
