Akira looks on calmly as Yasu jumps back and takes out her tanto, ready to attack. In a few moments, however, she seems to realize that he has no intention of attacking her. After she speaks, he simply shrugs his shoulders. "There is a reason that I've given up the ninja life. I grew tired of the endless and unnecessary violence that is associated with being a ninja. I am still not free of the guilt that comes from murdering a human being. I am sure you know how it gnaws at your very being. Or you might be so used to it by now that it doesn't make a difference anymore. I cannot say." He smiles at her.

As she tells him to give her his arm, he removes the crude bandages he has tied around his arm to let her put the ones she has, which are undoubtedly better. He holds out his arm steady. "I don't think they'll find out, though. The Koga clan lives quite far off and I was actually thinking of going under an alias." He looks up at her, wondering if she'll give an opinion.
