Dark Thoughts
[] Don't kill her. Killing... Is wrong. You've hurt her enough. No matter how angry you are, you're not a monster.

You tensed up as you managed to stop yourself from filling the Envoy to the brim with Grief. She simply continued to laugh while you held your stance above her. She didn't even struggle or resist while you were distracted. You punched her across the face in response, silencing her once and for all before you grabbed her by the hair and lifted her up as you straightened your back. The rain fell down around you before the world changed and brought you back to the rooftop you were just before.

The Envoy's world shimmered and faded away as you ended up standing before Kaguya. You dragged the Envoy with you before you both looked to the side to see a couple of Magical Girls show up.

"Lady Kaguya! Yuri's compromise- Oh what happened here..." one of the girls stared wide eyed at the beaten Envoy to were dragging by the hair.

"I'm leaving this trash to you," you told the Magical Girls as you dropped the Envoy on their feet as you ran.

"Tie her up and detain her! Separate her Gem away from her body as an added measure!" Kaguya ordered the two girls whom quickly obeyed without another word.

You and Kaguya were already rushing to the elevator. She got to your side as the doors opened before you hit the floor number to where Yuri was being contained. Just as the elevator was about to move, the entire building shuddered as you felt a huge spike of grief erupt from below. You wanted to curse but you didn't find any in your vocabulary fitting of the situation.

The elevator continued to move as you looked down at your hands. You weren't as badly injured as you thought you were but the toxins left by the Envoy's snakes lingered still. It made you light headed and clammy as you tried to see through a blurry purplish view. Kaguya moved to support you with her remaining arm and studied your expression.

"Maybe you shouldn't go see her like this. You're still hurting. She might attack," Kaguya warned you with a grim tone.

"I have to stop her even if it comes to that. Only I can stop her," you breathed as you shook your head, "I'll live. It'll take more than this to kill me."

The elevator came to a halt before the doors opened for a few Magical Girls to come piling in your way in a panic. However once they saw you and Kaguya to parted to give way while you moved past them. Kaguya nodded their way before pointing to the elevator.

"Get to safety! Quick!" she ordered as you tracked down the surge of Grief which was filling the entire floor like wild. You held up your hand to touch it in the air before Kaguya stopped by your side and pulled you with her, "Come! We don't have time!"

The two of you ran to the path where Yuri's body was being contained... Only to find that the walls had been breached and there were unconscious girls lying on the ground. You knelt down and found that they weren't tainted by Yuri's corruption. You looked up and followed the sound of wind. You and Kaguya dashed for the lounge and found that a trail of destruction was evident from the debris on the ground.

You both came upon a girl standing upon the open window she made by carving out the wall. Yuri had her back turned to you before she paused in her viewing of the outside. The afternoon skies giving way to the darkness Pandora's approach was making. She soon turned towards you, her light blue dress swaying as the winds entered the building.

The Evil Nuts were still present within her body but there was something different about her. She gave you a somber look as she turned your way entirely.

"Yukina... You look horrible," Yuri managed to say as she gave you a sad smile.

"Yuri..." you murmured as you stepped forward.

Vines of darkness erupted between you two as she gave you a hard look. She looked down at her hands and grimaced before looking back your way. Raising her hand, she dismissed the vines which she had summoned before you.

"Stay there. I'm still getting my bearings. I might accidentally kill you," Yuri murmured as she held her head, "It's been throbbing like mad. My head."

"Yuri... Is that really you?" you cautiously asked as you held up your hands.

"It's dangerous... I'm dangerous... Get away. You have to get away," Yuri said as she held her head as she endured the strain, "My thoughts... The Nuts reach into you, into the blackest pit of your mind and pulls out things you would never believe were your own thoughts. Kaguya, Yukina, you have to keep away from me. Everyone does..."

"We can help you, Yuri. Just calm down," Kaguya began as she met your creator's gaze.

"I am calm," Yuri replied as she held her head, "A girl helped me... Retain myself this time. You have to let me go. You have to let me leave. Yukina... My sister will chase me. If you keep me here, she'll ravage this city. I might lose control in her presence, I might kill you. You can't contain me. I'll break out. I'll corrupt you. Please... Let me go."

"And where will you go?" Kaguya asked with a sharp tone, "What's your plan?"

"I'll lead her away. Away from the city. Into the countryside," Yuri grit her teeth as the Evil Nuts squirmed beneath her skin, "Please... I don't want to hurt you. Even if I want to burn everything down. Even when I want to blame you for Yukina never being there for me... I don't want to hurt you. So please let me go."

You stared at her before you took another step.

A bolt of magic shot past you as one of Yuri's turrets sprouted from a dark vine on the ground. That should be what Yuri used to shoot Sai. She had precise control of it if it didn't blow a hole in your chest. You can approach her and risk being torn apart or... You can leave her be. That's what she wanted after all as she looked at you with a desperate look on her face.

Lachesis was probably responsible for this...

You moved another step before another bolt shot your shoulder. Pain lanced through your system before you staggered.

"Yukina!" Kaguya cried out before you looked back at the girl before you.

"I'll shoot you again if you don't stop," Yuri grit her teeth. She straightened her back before speaking once more, "This is an order, Yukina. Stay away from me."

You felt your joints lock up as you found yourself being compelled by her order. Narrowing your gaze her way, you shrugged it off as you clenched your hands into a fist.

[] Retreat away from her. Heal your wound now.
[] Rush her down and tackle her. She can't dodge you at full speed.

-[x] "We'll stop her, and then we'll help you. I'm not letting any of my sisters throw their lives away if I can."
 
I kinda wanna give Lachesis credit here, like tell Yuri we're not going to let Lachesis' sacrifice be in vain. We're all going to get through this, together

She's scared and trying to convince herself that she's too dangerous to keep around. I'm not convinced she is, and I think if we play thos right that facade will crumble

[] Walk towards her. You'll take her shots and see how far she'll go.

You glared at her before you took another step forward. Another bolt flew at you, striking past your face and forming a cut on your cheek. You didn't pay it any mind and took another step forward. You soon got closer and closer until Yuri grit her teeth and fired straight for your shoulder once more, taking out a chunk of your flesh before hitting your side.

"Yuri stop this!" Kaguya snapped from the back but you held out your hand as you endured.

"Stay away... I told you didn't I?" Yuri growled as she grit her teeth.

You walked forward as you were struck on another non-vital area. Grief leaked from your wounds before you tried catching your breath. You took another step as your fire arm was shot, followed by your brow.

Yuri finally blew a hole on your thigh and forced you to collapse. You struggled as you slowly pushed yourself up, your wounds healing slowly as you refused to stay down. You looked up at her with your red eyes as she stepped back.

She stopped when she realized she was standing on the edge of the hole she made.

"You won't stop, won't you?" Yuri murmured with a somber tone.

"Yuri!" Kaguya yelled.

BANG

You grit your teeth as she blew a hole on your abdomen. You fell down on your knee as you grit your teeth. You can heal this... She knew you could heal this. She made you after all. You were starting to lose consciousness.

From the fight with the Envoy to now... You can't reach her. You can-

SMACK

Homura popped in existence beside Yuri holding a golf club. It was reinforced with purple magic before she smashed the side of Yuri's face with it and sent your creator sprawling.

Dark vines shot up the ground but the Assassin was faster as she stomped on Yuri's head. Keeping her boot firmly on the side of Yuri's skull, you found that your creator had been knocked out while you were bleeding out.

Homura looked haggard as she blinked and turned your way. She glanced at you and Kaguya before keeping her foot on Yuri's head.

Facing you, she then asked, "What was your plan?"

In Time
[] "I wanted to stop her. Keep her from running."
[] "I... Trusted she wouldn't go far. I was wrong."
[] "Can you not keep your boot on her face? Please?"
[] Pass Out (Yukina will recover fully but will miss interaction with other characters. This will start the final fight.)

[X] "I wanted to stop her. Keep her from running."

It amuses me that the shonen option is borderline being called out as dumb by other characters.
 
Okay so I misread how determined she was

Still, we kept her in place long enough for Homu to come to the rescue

I'm totally claiming that was the goal

[X] "I wanted to stop her. Keep her from running."
