I'm trying really hard to figure out how to interpret this result... Anyways, she'll return to her senses either as soon as you damage her or as soon as my next turn rolls around.

Cassandra HP: 42
Virus roll: 1 (virus on the brain)
Roll to hit: 11 (hit!?)
Damage: 6+8=14 (!?)

Cassandra stared in open-mouthed horror at the damage she'd wrought on her companion.

What had she done? How could she have done that? They were going to die, weren't they?

She didn't want to die!

Despite herself, tears welled up in Cassandra's eyes and she started to sob, the pain and despair finally getting to her. She didn't see Taki continue the fight, flipping up onto Nemesis and inflicting a deep wound. She didn't see Nemesis' mutations catch the kunoichi, breaking her arm and putting her in a precarious position.

When Cassandra looked up, her sobs subsided, her eyes were blank and unseeing. With a growl, she reached up and grabbed onto Taki's dangling leg, dragging herself up, her guts forgotten and dangling loosely in front of her.

And then she stabbed Taki in the back.
