The clone doesn't speak. He might notice it's starting to flake away on the edges.

...Hm.

What happens if he keeps running away.

It chases him.

Does it continue flaking?

Slowly, yeah.

He isn't able to keep away from it before it finishes flaking, and reluctantly says, "Fine. Do you want me to help get Hisame?" when he runs out of breath.

It nods.

"If we don't let on that you caught me, she'll try to ambush me again to go after you together. I can let her ambush me, then you can grab her."

Nod.

And he goes to find his sister, letting her find him in turn -

She tackles him, apparently falling for the bait.

And the real Elieyha swoops down upon her.

She goes down shrieking, but presumably real Elieyha doesn't turn to sand upon being hit very hard.

She does not, no.

Sasuke helps hold Hisame down.

"I give!" she says, laughing.

"I think that means I win."

Hisame jumps to her feet. "Yeah!"

"You're good."

"Thanks."

"Next time we should start me and Sasuke versus you."

"That might be more fair."

"Maybe we'll beat you."

"You can try."

"It's not good to underestimate your opponents, you know!"
