	[color=fff79a]"Geez, Bowser! Careful!"[/color] Sakura chastised.

	Sakura began to sweat nervously for her friends down below.  Especially Shippy. She was connecting with some, but she didn't feel effective. Even from here she had to lead her shots and the ones around Shippy were too risky to shoot. [color=fff79a]"Shippy's hurt!"[/color] She called out. She didn't want to miss a fireball or cannon shot and blow a hole in Shippy's deck. Back home she could destroy a car with hadokens, let alone something made out of wood. [color=fff79a][i](Wood? Shippy's made out of wood, right?)[/i][/color] 

	[color=fff79a]"And- oh, my God! They're being torn apart down there!"[/color] Sakura shouted in horror, putting both hands on the railing and leaning forward as a huge gout of blood was sprayed across the deck. It looked as if Sakura was going to jump over the edge once again.

	Her eyes narrowed after a moment. [color=fff79a]"W-wait, no! Nevermind! She's doing that on purpose. Sorry!"[/color] Sakura cringed, and retook her grounded stance. 
	
	Suddenly, she found they weren't doing much better. The Abyssals took offense to Bowser's display and their attention was on the Atomos. Thanks to her stance, jolting her around was going to be difficult, but she could feel the Atomos rock from the impact. 

	[color=fff79a]"Uh oh."[/color] Sakura watched over the railing as the Abyssals came up from below and began striking at the underbelly of the Atomos. She'd been trying to defend the Atomos, but at the end of the day Bowser could just shrink and they could fly away. Shippy was trapped, alive, and being hurt.

	Sakura closed her eyes and took a breathe. [color=fff79a][i](Focus! Your Ki is stronger and more refined than ever! Use it!)[/i][/color] As she focused, there was a brief moment of swirling, black, inky energy. The moment passed and Sakura opened her eyes, seeing the situation a little more clearly. 

	[color=fff79a][i]"Hadoken!"[/i][/color] This time she fired directly for the Abyssals on and surrounding Shippy. She gauged the distance between Atomos and Shippy perfectly. A variable timed Hadoken, sped up to travel as fast as she could make it, which was a little over one hundred miles per houre. And if it missed, it was timed so that it would fizzle out in the brief amount of space between the top of an Abyssals body and Shippy herself.

	[color=fff79a]"I got it!"[/color] She shouted triumphantly as her fireball collided with one of the inhuman creatures trying to devour Shippy. 

	Sakura joined Nadia, going rigid in a similar way at the exact same time, as she heard the screech tear it's way through the sky. Her ears and tail went straight, standing on end. Sakura peaked over the top of the Atomos and saw the massive bird. 

	[color=fff79a][i]"UH OH!"[/i][/color] She shouted. [color=fff79a]"It's a big bird!"[/color] She pointed out the obvious with her index finger and the alarmed expression on her face. 

	[color=fff79a]"What are we gonna do!? Can you stop it with your burp attack!?"[/color] Sakura hopped up onto the roof of the Atomos with Bowser. Then, she jumped back down to the railing where she was just was, looking down at Shippy. Then she jumped back ontop of the roof. It was the acrobatic equivalent of frantically running around in a circle.

	[color=fff79a]"Oh, man! I don't know where to stand!"[/color] She admitted with a whine. Once again slapping the sides of her head, she lowered herself down to the railed off balcony like section and began firing her expertly timed fireballs down at the enemies eating away at Shippy's hull. Something about a living ship getting eaten alive really didn't sit well with her. If she could help prevent it, she would. Hopefully Bowser would redirect his fire if the bird got too close. And, well, she was fast enough to get anywhere on the Atomos in a matter of moments. She just needed to stop being so impulsive she tried to be everywhere at once.
