InuYasha Fan Fiction ❯ Harsh Changes ❯ Cold ( Prologue )

Harsh Changes

Cold

It was so dark. I was crying and felt nothing but burning pain through my body. Why was it so cold? My mouth filled with the metallic taste of blood, as the life-sustaining liquid ran over my lips to hit the dirt only a few inches from my mouth. I was sure I was going to bleed to death. I felt every muscle scream in agony, threatening to not support me and throw my beaten body to the ground. Why was it so cold? I tried to lift my face out of the dirt, but someone held me still with strong, relentless arms. He growled at my attempts to get away from him. I felt his hot breath against my neck, daring me to try it again. Promising me he'd hurt me if I do.

"Please." I begged him, "You don't want to hurt me."

My voice was broken and dull, almost catching completely in my bleeding mouth. He tightens his grip on my hands that lay unnatural against my back. His eyes, even though I couldn't see them, were glowing red, showed me what he wanted from me. I wanted to scream, wanted to run away. But he wouldn't let me. I felt his body pressed against my back, and I realized I was naked. Naked and exposed. I felt darkness surround my already weak mind and he put more weight on my back, my knees almost buckling under me. He growled demanding I stay still. I could not save him, my InuYasha. Why was it so cold?

"I'm sorry." I whimpered silently, my voice abandoning me in the darkness.

We were going to fall into the blackness and I closed my eyes. I couldn't fight him. I couldn't save us. Tears ran down my face and he took me.
