[ there's a long, shaky breath taken in. yuno has to prepare for what she has to do. it might be clear that this is something she doesn't want to say, to admit, but jack can take her home. yuno fully believes that. in order for her to get back to yukiteru, this is a necessary step. besides, if something happens, and jack can't use her to bring his daughter back, then he's out of luck. after the reset, then he won't remember a thing. it's safe. she convinces herself of that. ]
Back home, God is dying.
[ that sounds really hokey, she knows. silly. ridiculous. still, she is sincere; it's easy to read in her expression. ]
Because of that, there's a game. In this game, God, his name is Deus ex Machina... He's chosen twelve potential successors. I'm one of them.
[ she pauses the swallow. it's hard to keep looking jack in the eye, so she takes a second to blink away the threat of tears before continuing. admitting all of this is-- difficult, to say the least. if yukki knew, that would be the end of them. ]
If you win the game, you become God.
...Jack, I won. In order to do it, I had to kill everyone. All of them. Y...Yukki, too. I killed Yukki, and I was going to bring him back. But when I did--
[ it's all too much for her; yuno raises a hand to wipe away falling tears, and finally looks back at jack. ] I learned the hard way! I learned the hard way that I did it wrong! Because of me, Yukki was so unhappy, so I did it over. I made it all go back to before the game started...! I know what to do now, how to win, and how to bring everyone back. Back home, he's alive. Yukki is alive. I have to kill everyone again, but when I win the game, Jack...
[ for all the tears, yuno is determined to prove how serious she is here. her gaze is genuine and honest. she makes sure to make eye contact with jack. ]
I can bring her back. I know how to do it, now. I can bring them all back, if that's what you want. I just have to get home and win the game.
