The beast on fire did not give Sakura or Aqua any time to think. It rammed its body into the pair and Sakura was barely able to stop it from hurting them too much.
Her flames were not stable enough to stop the man but her anger was fueling her desperation to burn everything. And now, two places on Sakura's body ached badly.
"Tsk, if only my stomach was not out to get me as well. I would have ended your pathetic existence by now."
Sakura complained as she forced the force the beast to focus on her. There was a silent understanding between Sakura and Aqua regarding their role right now.
Aqua was nervous when she snuck around the beast and tried to cross its body. She expected the beast to turn toward her.
But the beast did not look away from Sakura's body no matter what happened. It was almost as if it had been enchanted by her looks and her powers. Sakura was able to hold its focus on her.
