[back to looking at the invisible zack. she's quiet, like she's thinking if that's true or not.]

...one of the others must have attacked Yuffie before I found her. She was already a mess by the time she crossed my path, but she didn't even recognize me. She just saw me as a Reliver, even though...[she shakes her head.] Maybe I stopped caring, too. She was just as guilty, taking those lives for a god that isn't even real. She tried to attack me first, but she was already pretty hurt. She said she was doing it because God was saving people like them. Like me. That killing them was the only way.

[...]

I didn't mean to hit her so hard the first time. [another wash of guilt, nausea, and despair mostly.] But it didn't matter. I had her right where I needed her, and the garbage can wasn't as heavy as I thought. Once I started, I didn't stop. I had to make sure she stayed down. After the third strike, it was over.
