[She says that first, plainly, holding out her hands and staring down at them.]
I hate hurting people. And I know the Savior sacrificed so people wouldn't have to fight. But I can't lie to myself and pretend that the world's gonna just let me continue being weak and passive because I'm a kid--I have to be stronger to protect everyone. I'll protect my idiot womanizing father, I'll protect the people that tell me my mother's dead, I'll protect every living thing that feels weak or scared.
