Instincts honed through over a decade of fighting being her life, the reaction to someone hitting being to hit back as hard as you can and see if you can buy enough time to not die. And she's already tense and on edge, so the first impact of the fist into her face results in a step back and automatic smooth flow into a crossing kick aimed at Kara's face, a fist after it.
She takes a step back after the first initial reaction, glances at Lee and steps back again, continuing to move backwards. She has no trust in them. Turning her back is not an option. ]
