[Ann doesn't need to be told twice, and she grits her teeth as she takes aim and fires— the cannon has more kickback to it than she'd expected, and she almost goes reeling backwards as a result, but manages to right herself before losing her balance completely.
That first cannonball sails forward and strikes the shark-ship just above its mouth, which wasn't exactly as planned, but the impact is enough to send its head swiveling in the other direction— enough to buy them a minute of breathing room. Another shipmate is quickly moving to reload the cannon while she holds it steady, and she looks sharply towards where Ranma is fighting.]
Can you keep them busy long enough for another shot?!
[How many of them had managed to get over here, anyway?]
