[CycloneKira]

Akira listens to Yusa's story, once again feeling a little sorry for her. As she begins to collapse, Akira catches her. Gently, he lays her down on the bed and pulls the sheet over her. The events of the day seem to have exhausted her.

After making sure she is properly tucked in, he picks up his sword and follows the ninja, who hasn't gone far because of his injuries. Moving swiftly and silently, he finally reaches Yusa's village. He ignores the curious looks from the villagers as he follows the other man.
