Needless to say, both crewmen and passengers alike were left completely horrified by what they just witnessed. Erica paid them all no mind however as she wiped her mouth clean with the back of her hand, unaware of the woman she'd just ate. Instead she was more focused on her opponent or lack there of.
"Where are you?" She asked aloud. One minute they were engaged in a test of strength and then the next they were underwater trying to drown one another. She managed to make it back to the surface so did that mean the black-clad giantess was still lost beneath the waves? She hoped that was the case.
It was in this moment of thought that Erica heard what sounded like bubbles at her side. She quickly whipped her head around to see multiple air bubbles rising to the surface. So her opposition was still underwater and trying to surprise her.
"Nice try!" Erica snapped before raising her foot as high it could go and slamming it down.
Miraculously, the resulting shockwave on the water's surface didn't capsize the ship but it did rattle it and everyone on board. Anyone not leaned against the wall or holding onto a rail was sent flying whether they be on the upper deck or down below. Some passengers and crewmen were even sent overboard.
"Man overboard!"
"Woman overboard!"
The poor unfortunate souls in the dark water were trying desperately to stay afloat against the waves which proved difficult given their loaded state.
Erica meanwhile grunted in annoyance when her foot found nothing but solid ground. "Where the hell are you?"
The air bubbles had ceased as well.
That's when Sara finally made her move. She popped out of the water like a monster performing a jump scare. She had plenty of experience holding her breath and used it to her advantage. Erica was caught completely off guard and couldn't brace herself before the giant Asian beauty gave her a powerful shove that sent her careening backwards.
An even darker shadow fell over the vessel as the remaining crew and passengers knew what was about to happen next. Almost immediately the desperate ones began to jump overboard in a vain attempt to escape certain death but it was all for naught. Erica was far too large to avoid and all that could be heard were hundreds of tiny screams that were soon silenced by the giantess's massive back.
There a loud splash an then there was nothing.

"No!" Beth covered her moth in shock.
Steve turned away. He couldn't look any longer.
Fresh tears began to streak down the blonde's face as she watch Sara stir the water with her foot. "We failed them! We couldn't save any of them!"
The tiny scientist couldn't exactly disagree. Growing Sara to fight Erica was proving itself to be more of a con than a pro. She was more focused on winning than actually protecting innocent lives.
"I never should've called her. This is all my fault." Steve spoke. "I should've listened to you Beth."
"Don't say that. It's not your fault." Beth tried to comfort her mentor.
"Isn't it though?" He countered. "At least if you'd been out there you would've tried to minimize damage. Sara is just a wrecking ball meant for demolition."
Neither of the pair said another word and let the silence hang in the air.

Just outside of the impact zone, a jet ski pushed forward. On it was captain Long John Silver who said a silent prayer for the loss of his vessel and crew. Even the drunk passengers who spent their trust funds and ill-gotten gains. They may gave been rich snobs but none of them deserved to die... most of them didn't deserve to die.
He made a mental note to retire from the sea life once he reached the mainland.
