[ The more difficult part of this is, having only one arm, Sasuke can do little to steady himself against the brute strength of the dragon. It's wings beat haphazardly, wounded neck wrenching in a last ditch effort to shake Sasuke off. The thrashing does little but exasperate it's condition, and Sasuke does his best to keep a hold on his blade and not be flung wide. It tries to close it's mouth on him, but in shifting his grip, it only wedges his chokuto in it's mouth and impales the beast fatally.
Sasuke doesn't get out of it without injury. He releases his weapon as the dragon falls, but his mouth twists in an open expression of pain. Striking a killing blow without being bolstered by chakra means one of those massive teeth cut through part of his arm. He's certainly had worse, but it's left his sleeve torn and bloody— with his own blood and the dragon's.
He straightens, looking over his shoulder at the girl and the family through the curtain of his hair. Seeing they're both safe, he closes his eyes and sighs, then turns away to retrieve his blade from the dragon's mouth. ]
