[ The dragon is tough but Sakura's weapon isn't legendary only in name. It slices skin and cracks through the spine, arteries blown open and Sasuke ducks, swinging his chokuto up and wide. She might have been clipped by the swipe if Sasuke didn't slash over her head, deflecting the claws and skidding backwards just slightly— enough to miss the worst of the rain of blood. It splashes across his face and across his front, and while Sasuke would like to finish the job Sakura started, there's no time.
The dragon rears up, and grotesquely the weight of the head against the momentum of the body rends the third head from it's threadbare grip on the rest of the neck. ]
“It hurts… it burns…”
[ Sasuke reaches for Sakura, but even as he connects with her his head is turning to look for the third member of their party— in time to spot him hanging for dear life to the face of one of the heads of the dragon as it gives a massive beat of it's wings, preparing to lift off. ]
parkour!!
