Rin's head throbbed. It hammered. Before she could collect her thoughts, it throbbed again. The incessant pounding in her head continued until her vision went black…again.
When the blackness faded and the throbbing ebbed, Rin didn't try to move or open her eyes for a good five minutes. She didn't want to black out again. Rin had lost count how many times she had gone in and out of consciousness.
Feeling fairly confident that she wouldn't pass out again, Rin slowly sat up and looked around. She was in the same old building as before. No surprise there. That woman from before wasn't in sight, and neither was the man Rin overheard talking with Sango. The memory came back to her suddenly, and she shivered at the thought that occurred to her.
Could that have been…Naraku?
Rin was a sitting duck. With all the strength she could find, the agent managed to get up, stumbling over to the nearest wall. Peeking her head through the doorway, she found the small space to be devoid of her captors. It looked as though they had only stepped out for a moment. The coffee cup on the table was still steaming, and the laptop's screen was lit up.
She didn't know how long they would be gone. She didn't know when they'd left. But hey, better run now.
So she did.
Thinking on her feet, Rin silently went to the window behind her. The lock had been fastened shut with what looked like…spider web?... but with a few solid kicks, it broke. Rin crawled out the window, closing it behind her. She saw some sort of road ahead of her; it was her only chance to reach civilization.
She ran without looking back.
It must have been hours by now, but the haze in her brain is preventing her from perceiving time. The darkness of night envelops her surroundings, visibility reduced to almost nothing. Rin now drags her feet along the empty, isolated highway, having run out of the energy to run a while back. Oh yeah, and the part where she couldn't see for shit.
How the fuck have I not seen any cars or lights? Where the fuck am I?! Way to go, Rin. What a stupid fucking plan.
Yeah, she's pretty pissed at this point.
It vaguely registers in the back of Rin's mind that the slightest illumination now touches the ground. A little brighter still. She looks down, confused. Brighter and brighter.
HOOOONK!
What?
And then she was blinded.
