Heart of Tensaiga
Icy Rescue
Kagome let out a shriek as her body was lifted off the ground by a large gust of snow and wind that bit into her skin like tiny daggers. As she fell she noticed for a split second that she was headed towards the river and she mentally cringed. She closed her eyes tightly as her body hit the thin sheet of ice that topped the river and cringed as tiny shards sliced through her kimono and bit into her skin.
The cold water that surrounded her caused such an intense amount of pain that instead of holding what breath she had, she let out a silent, bubbly scream. Moving as best as she could she tried to swim towards the surface but found that the underwater current had already carried her past the hole she had made in the ice.
Kagome did her best to grip part of the underside of the ice and managed to stop herself from being carried away farther downstream. Through the thoughts of being a goner once again she wondered if, unlike Inuyasha, Sesshomaru would come to her rescue this time around. She did not want to die again, to leave the group that had become closer to her in such a short amount of time. She did not want Rin devastated and Sesshomaru to hate himself for breaking his word.
With those last thoughts, her eyes started to drift shut before she felt something break through beside her and wrap around her torso.
(A/N) Alrighty, I think that's enough for one day unless someone manages to convince me otherwise! Hehe, hopefully this makes up for my lack of posting for a while. Hopefully these few chapters brought a much needed chill to those, like me, who are in miserably hot places!
