[Going back would have brought so much lost to Rin, like her sister and all of the friends her and Ryuji left behind. She would see people she had missed for so long, be able to hug them again, and tell them how special they were to her...
There was a part of her that ached for that, so much so that she nearly considered what Zahi was trying to do as something worth doing.
But hearing Ibuki cry, hearing Ikuri stand her ground, even Colin's words of distrust and uncertainty brought her back to where she had been before all that. She shook her head, squaring her shoulders as she stood with the others.]
You can't promise anything! You can't! All you're doin' is goin' on the assumption that this is even gonna work, let alone actually let us stay here while everythin' is bein' changed!
Why are you willin' to risk so damn much on this?! You said so yourself, that the worst possible outcome is that we wind up back here! Do you even understand how much pain that would cause so many of us?!
[This time she addressed the rest of them, hoping to sway those who were still uncertain.]
How many of you have lost people you cared about here?! How many of you have watched some one you loved fall to the monsters on the skyway, to starvation and illness and everythin' else that has hit us here?! Do you really want those people to return only to suffer again?! That is this man's "worst case scenario" if his plan fails! Think about that!
