She was pinned to the floor, her hair yanked back by unforgiving fingers that tangled themselves deep in the raven hue. Her shirt and bra were already gone, and the flesh on her back was again exposed to the white haired male.
"I see you're still not quite healed from last time, hm?" Inuyasha asked casually, as if speaking about the weather. Kagome whimpered under his weight, as he was sitting on the backs of her legs so she couldn't try to escape. She was already fearing the touch of cold steel against her scarred and bruised skin, the crimson lines that would appear and drench the floor.
"Well, let's get started then, shall we?"
Kagome had sworn that she wouldn't allow herself to make a sound, but as the first line was carved, she couldn't help but scream.
She didn't know how long she had lain there after he had left, the world spinning around her in technicolor, tears and heaving sobs escaping her bruised lips.
Finally, she dragged herself along the floor until she came to her jacket, where her cellphone had been when she'd first come in.
Blindly, she fumbled with the screen until she clicked the number, and waited for someone to answer.
"Moshimoshi?"
Kimiko. She couldn't help but let out a relieved whimper.
"Hello?" Kimiko's voice was slightly vague and far away. Kagome forced herself to speak, to force out the words that needed to be said.
"Kimiko..it's Kagome. I need help."
