The Naked Beat

by

Jade Chen said something in Chinese and Mr. Li's henchman, the one from the back of the van, came through the front door. He backhanded Blaze to the ground. I punched him square in the jaw and thought I'd broken my knuckles.

He picked me up off the floor and threw me across the room. I slammed into the wall and slid to the floor. He started toward me.

With both hands I picked up the brass Buddha from the marble pedestal, and just as he reached me I gave Mr. Li's henchman a little enlightenment right upside his head...

    Go Jake! This is more like the old Jake we knew. Welcome back to a bit of tough guy action. Thanks, Christopher :-)

    Thank you, Neville and Drew. Jake couldn't really take the guy in hand-to-hand combat, but he definitely came out on top in Buddha-to-head combat!
