There were three options at this point, Reon realized, as her new reflexes let her have the time to look thru them.<br/><br/>First was to counter it, using her old self-defense routines and send Jake flying through the air like a rag doll. He'd get to be further humiliated before the cop cuffed him and took him away but the guys with him might decide to react and she wasn't sure that it was the right way to stay low on the radar. She didn't want to let her abilities come out before it came out who she was in a more profitably way.<br/><br/>That left stepping to one side and letting Jake fumble through or taking the hit. She could step aside but that would would leave him pretty much open to avoiding the cops taser. She shifted SLIGHTLY to one side, to put Jake's fist not into her face but into the side of her head. A clipping hit that would keep him focused on her, with her more resilient body, and not on the cop who was about to REALLY spoil his day. She'd tried to be nice, and figured that Jake would feel more pain from the cop than she would from she going clipped.<br/><br/>She rolled with the blow, though to an onlooker it would look like Jake clocked her soundly on the back of her head and rolled back and tumbled onto the sand. A perfect action shot for a drama student who had enjoyed an 'A' in her action scene workshop the year before.<br/>
