Sora was being dragged away from Amira as she thrashed in the man's grip. After running for a bit she was dropped to the ground as she quickly got to her feet glaring at him and taking her stance. She couldn't stay there long, she had to get back to Amira. 
"Look I would prefer to do this without a fight, just come with me. I promise it's for your own sake Tatsuo can't protect you," He said calmly.
"Oh and Orochimaru can," Sora laughed bitterly. 
"Of course, he can. That's all he wants. I don't know what Tatsuo has told you but it's wrong," He said calmly. 
This made anger well up in Sora's chest. He had some audacity saying that. She threw shuriken at him and he deflected but as he did Sora went running at him ice surrounding her fist. He sighed dodging her attack grabbing her arm and avoiding the ice. She looked at him shocked, his movements were so smooth and effortless. She could tell what he was doing but couldn't keep up with him. She struggled in his hold but he wouldn't let go.
"Why do you insist on fighting me? I just want what's best for you," He said calmly.
"Are you being serious? Do you have any idea who Orochimaru is and what he has done? He killed your family you idiot," Sora snapped hoping her theory was correct about who he was.
"Is that what my father has told you? That's a complete lie. They died because he was weak, a group of rough nin attacked and he was helpless against them, he ran away leaving us all to die. I'm only alive because Orochimaru was around seeing the commotion and arrived in time to save me," Mituso explained
Sora looked at him in disbelief at the way he said it made her realise he believed every word of it. 
"He has brainwashed you well," Sora said.
She moved her free hand grabbing the chakram blade one change on each hip. She grabbed it slashing at him. He let go of her jumping back and avoiding the attack. He looked at her seeing the anger and hatred in her eyes. He couldn't understand why she was like this. what lies had she been told to act out in this way?
"You are the one who has been brainwashed," He said calmly. 
Her eyes narrowed as she grabbed the second blade and pushed her chakra into it. Ice surrounded them as she threw one at him. He moved his head to the side. The blades came back to her like a boomerang. She got a brief explanation about them, about how she could make them come back using her chakra to "Call" them back as long as they were in motion in the air. She threw one again but Mitsuo simply caught it the ice instantly vanishing. 
"You shouldn't be using weapons you don't know how to use," He said calmly. 
Sora glared at him, she had gotten no practice with them she was just hoping for the best and winging it. She didn't even know if she could put her chakra into the blades until that point. 
"Shut up," She growled. 
She put the one she had back on her hip hating he was right. He threw the other back at her. She caught it putting it back and looked at him confused, he had yet to attack her.
"I don't want to fight. I was so happy to learn you were alive. I can finally do what my clan has been waiting for," He said.
She knew he was earnest, which just annoyed her more. The idea he truly believed her going back to Orochimaru was best filled her with anger. 
"I will never go to that man" Sora growled. 
"Again I don't know what Tatsuo has told you but it is a lie," Mitsuo said hoping to make her see sense. 
"He told me nothing, dumbass. He saved me from Orochimaru," Sora snapped as she formed hand signs. 
"What's that supposed to mean?" Mitsuo questioned.
