[ The element of surprise, brief as it might have been, isn't enough to throw Reyes off of his game. Jack can't say he would have expected anything else. Gabriel Reyes is nothing if not a professional, and more than that, they've got the same set of enhancements. Their spars had always been a little like this, a push and pull, evenly matched to the point that there often wasn't a winner.
Of course, this isn't a friendly spar, and Jack isn't here to play fair. He's got backup.
If Reyes had any clue who he was, this isn't how he'd be reacting. Not that Jack expects him to figure it out just like that, when he's got years of age on him and has gone out of his way to come across as a different person. If Gabriel catches sight of Ana that'll be a different issue, but she can always put her mask on in the interim before he wakes up.
So he isn't going to give Reyes the chance to see her. Jack presses forward again, continuing to apply pressure as he grabs for Gabriel's collar and then aims a full-forced punch at his face. It won't be enough to knock him out, but it could disorient him. ]
