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 4 of 5.

Chapter 54: Frantic

Kagome stumbled into the bathroom, barely catching herself on the cold edges of the sink. Moonlight spilled in from the window hanging overhead, casting an eerie glow on her skin as she stared at herself in the mirror.

A vision of wide eyes gazed back at her, pupils dilated to the point of nearly shadowing both irises. It was unnatural and frightening.

She looked like a demon.

“Where are the eye drops?” Trembling hands reached for the door of the medicine cabinet, fingers wrenching it open. “Band-aids… Tylenol…” Delicate fingertips brushed against a familiar object, and she nearly sobbed.
