[As Rosetta lay there, shivering from the cold, her mind is for several moments even more of a mess than before. Rikka had hurt her.
Rikka had hurt her. In spite of that attack being one that was supposed to purify, its freezing effects were still quite pronounced.
...wait, purifying... the lack of that stuck out to her.
...no, there was nothing to purify, her mind was clear, it was focused, she knew what she had to do...
And as the sounds of battle raged, slowly she tries to move again. The ice cracked, feeling a weakness from just not that, but as her own selfish feelings rose again...
But the ice still broke. She still rose, though shaking.]
Rikka-chan, how could you...
[As she speaks, she sees who she speaks of, and deep within her mind... there is a voice that screams internally. The sight of Rikka, bleeding, down on the ground... Regardless of where her thoughts are, it's a sight burned into Yotsuba Alice's mind forever. In that moment, she can't even tell if she's alive or dead.
Outwardly, though, Rosetta begins to move sluggishly. Towards Rikka. One way or another, it needs to be verified.
Even as that voice just faintly screams in in head, its drowned out by the other voice. The promise that she is much closer to what she needs to do.
That everything will be alright, if she can just finish this task...]

It'll all be over soon, Rikka-chan...
