Hello!

I have been trying to read a few mangas in japanese to try to enhance my reading speed.
However I'm a bit confused over the reading of some hiragana drawn in a way a bit different from what I usually read.
For the context: I am reading the scene in bleach when rukia shows her hand to Ichigo to make him understand to keep his mouth shut.

So far I understand : *ゆいだら 殺す。 (the  ゆ seems a bit strange though)
but I don't see what could be the first hiragana, it seems to be a ち with the lower part a bit flatten. but then I don't see what ちゆいだら would mean.
(It also looks very much like a ナ with an additionnal stroke)

Could you please help me with this ^^"?
Thanks you very much for your help :) !

i think that's a 士, a given name. there are several different readings, including
あきら、おさむ、かつひと、つこう、といち、まもり、まもる

Thats actually a さ in hiragana for 騒いだ(sawaida) which means to either make a fuss/act up/make a scene etc

On her hand, it reads
さわいだら (If you make a scene)
殺す (I'll kill you)

Thanks you very much both of you ^^.
I didn't expected this character to be a さ but I guess one hint was the direction of the second stroke at its beginning.
as for the わ... It is also hard to read it ^^
But It shows how some kind of handwritting can be different from others, which is really interesting.
Unfortunately it's really rare to find such kind of handwritting while learning japanese ^^" .
Anyway, thanks again both of you for the help :) .
As a comparison I've looked up how they act this scene in the anime and they directly put 騒げば :

My guess would have been さ or ち, but it is written really oddly, so is わ.

Not that I would know what it actually means though, and from the context what redmonster said makes the most sense.
