Disclaimer: Though it saddens me to say it, I don’t own anything relating to Takahashi-sensei’s Inuyasha. However, the plot and/or ideas of this drabble series do belong to me, and a nod of recognition goes to the creator of this challenge.

A/N: None. :) Update 3 of 5.

Chapter 208: Gulf Between Heaven and Hell

She didn’t even remember taking that first step forward, knees buckling, palms sweating from the slick heat of her skin.

Her sharp intakes of breath were almost painful as her pupils dilated to black pools of dread. The blue rings of her irises were nearly overwhelmed by the immense terror that gripped her heart, swollen with unspeakable darkness. Ice pressed against her on all sides as she waded into the water, pulling at her limbs, and yet was as deceivingly pliant as only clouds could be.

Gentle in its fluidity, Kagome never thought to struggle when it dragged her under.
