Rayna noticed the crowd thinning as she walked, and fought the urge to smile. The other political prisoners were starting to fall apart from the group, and she needed to get away from the throng of inmates before they started targeting people. As far as Rayna could see, the chain-link fence didn't end for another few blocks. Even if she wanted to walk that far, she was certain there were be an ambush of inmates to welcome the newcomers. She looked from side to side, checking how many men stood on the other side of the fence on each side. One particular man leaned against the fence and grinned at her, but she didn't hear his words. It was probably just another unoriginal catcall.<br/><br/>Deciding on her choice, Rayna lunged for the left fence, climbing halfway up before anyone noticed what she was doing. She vaulted over the top, making the decision to fall instead of trying to climb down. She almost immediately regretted the decision when pain went shooting up her shins. She could still walk, however, and jogged away from the fence and away from the crowds. A few of the men saw her, and chased after her, making comments about how she obviously didn't know how things worked in this part of the city. Rayna chanced a look behind her and saw two men, both larger than her. She hissed through her teeth. She could have fought off one, but she couldn't manage two on her own. She needed to get to high ground and find a hiding place to plan her next move, but she wouldn't have time unless she at least slowed the two men down.<br/><br/>She ducked into a small alley and stopped, knowing she had to move fast before any more of the men  who had been surrounding the fence decided to follow her. She waited for one man to run past the alley, and stuck out her arm so that his neck struck it. When he fell to the ground, she turned to the next man running towards her and aimed for his nose with the bottom of her palm. By the time he groaned and reached for his face, the second man was getting to his feet, and Rayna whirled around to aim for his groin. He jumped backwards in time to miss her blow, and she stumbled. He used that to his advantage, and reached out with one hand to grab her neck. Rayna felt a moment of panic as he touched her, but triumph also, as she knew how to break that hold. She held up one arm, grabbing her wrist with the other above the man's elbow, bringing both hands down to loosen his grip on her neck. Rayna then went for the groin, hoping the first man was still on the ground and she hadn't lost her chance to flee.<br/><br/>She ran before looking, knowing that if the first man was up and mobile, he would have a broken nose and hopefully, tears blurring his vision. She grinned as she moved through the narrow city alleys, thankful that she had signed up for a basic self-defense class before moving to Gotham. As respected as the Batman was, she still felt the need to be able to protect herself. Rayna heard a yell behind her, and turned her head, seeing the man whose nose she had broken up and following her. The second man was still lying on the ground, and hopefully he wouldn't be a problem. Rayna turned back to look for an escape route, not wanting to take her chances in case her limited fighting knowledge failed her. She turned a corner, seeing a fire escape on a building back the way she had come. She hoped that she could get up it without attracting the attention of the nearby crowd.<br/><br/>She was running too fast, and thinking too quickly to stop when she saw the man, and barreled into his back. He was standing farther from the crowd than most, and all Rayna saw was dark hair and tattoos before she crashed into him. She nearly cursed, knowing that her flawed plan had more holes than she had foreseen.
