As soon as his attack was met head on, Arashi knew he'd likely made a mistake, even if instinct made him act. He had to be sure, as his blade was stopped so easily and his wrist knocked rattled, he'd easily let go of the weapon, partially because it was foolish to keep hold when he was no where near as strong as the man, but mainly because he'd already seen the attack had failed. While one arm was bound in the man's grip Sora felt open, exposed...then there pain but not in his stomach as his opponent would assume, but in his arm. Why? Because he wasnt just leaving his other arm dangling about, no, he'd thrown it in front of himself and took the bulk of the blow there. Then as though that werent enough he'd been kicked, actually he'd been kicked hard enough to go flying sideways. When he finally stopped tumbling he'd slide a few feet on his knees and stop himself with his fingers in the mud. He grit his teeth as his left arm clutched the right side of his chest, there was a pop and pain shot through his body when he tried to stand.

Ah, so that was his thing, water though he didnt feel like he got hit with water, he felt like he'd been struck with one of the trees he tried to find balance on. Sora muscled through the pain to stand, but that was it. He wouldnt even try to fight it, there wasnt enough training to make a sixteen year old kid take on a man who'd barely broken a sweat in taking down multiple bandits likely without missing a beat. On top of that, he was pretty sure something had broken inside of him and it actually made him not want to move. "Yes...yes I think I am." Sora said with a half lidded grin, "I guess if you wanted to kill me I'd be dead, you can never be too sure, know what I mean?" Look at this cheeky bastard, ragged breathing, broken rib cage and he was making jokes. "Please accept my apologies and my thanks for helping me, I'll find some way to repay you that doesnt involve me attacking you again." Hunched forward Sora applied pressure to his side and was barely able to keep standing, actually he was close to tearing up and you know what? He regret nothing.
