She reaches for her sidearm. (Oh, gods, what's going on...)
"Kill him. He dies now."
He reaches for her hand, to offer thanks.
She fires. (No, what... why is there blood?)
“He has to die.”
She fires again. (Don't do this, don't do this, don't.)
"Kill him now."
She drops the gun.
She tried to kill him; she tried to miss. Her mind, her (do I have a soul?) can't process the contradiction. She reaches for the gun, she wants to end her pain. (No, *they* want that.)
A strike from the left. She's on the ground; she doesn't fight.
