The ninja sits there for a moment, glaring angrily at Akira, then looks over to Yusa, "And here I thought I could become the head if I took you home. Too bad this guy had to interfere with clan affairs. All you're worth to your father is your combat abilities, so you're nothing more than another weapon to him."

Yusa looks away from him, hiding her face from both of them as she cries, angry that he pointed out what she'd always suspected and just now had confirmed about her father. Quickly pulling out a kunai from a strap under her sleeve, she rushes forward and stabs the ninja in the shoulder, a look of sheer fury on her face.

"You'll never have me, Hiro. I'd rather die than be with the likes of you. And you can tell my father that anymore of our clan sent after me I will kill them. I'm taking control of my own life and tied of being the clan head's 'pet' ninja." Twisting the blade a bit as she pulls it back out, fear can be seen in the ninja's eyes. He hadn't expected her to do that. She turns her back to him, "I suggest you leave now before I change my mind."
