A quick dash coming at him and Smoker twisted to the side to let Rinali run right through where he'd been or at least so he could check her reflexes and ability to turn and adjust accordingly. Speed was all well and good but without control it was useless.

Although technically their current resting spot made it easier to grab the jitte but he wouldn't do that without weapons to repel.
