[CycloneKira]

Akira shakes his head in disgust as the other male says his piece about Yusa, causing her to cry. Once again, he is reminded of the reason he stopped being a ninja. They are a cruel bunch and he just doesn't fit in with a crowd like that. Neither does he want to.

Then Yusa suddenly strikes, leaving Akira shocked, but then it subsides. The man had it coming, after insulting her like that. But it is not the way to deal with things. He will have to talk to her about that. And there is something else he will have to do after that. Best to do it when she's sleeping. He wonders whether she will be able to, though, after what just happened.
