Chapter Thirty-Seven: Revelation
oooooOooooo
I pounded hard on the thick ice encasing me, knowing it would be fruitless, but unwilling to idly sit and do nothing.
The fires were gone, extinguished by what I guessed to be Sesshoumaru. Water surrounded me now, and while it brought me comfort, it was entirely too quiet. I could not see nor hear anything, and that was cause enough for worry.
"Higurashi-san?"
Smothering a sudden scream, I whipped around with one hand pressed to my thundering heart. "Wha―Izanagi-dono?"
This was . . . unexpected.
"Higurashi-san," he repeated anxiously. "You must come with me. Now."
Confusion knitted my brow, and I didn't have time to ponder how he knew my surname. "Whatever for, Izanagi-dono? What's wrong?"
His brooding golden eyes weighed on me heavily, pleadingly, before he spoke, "Sesshoumaru . . ."
"What?" I murmured as I felt my heart drop into my stomach. "What's happened to him, Izanagi-dono?"
"Nothing, Higurashi-san. He is well. However, I'm afraid if you do not stop him, he will do something he will regret for the rest of his long life."
I decided not to waste time asking more questions. "Take me to him, Izanagi-dono, and I will do what I can."
Grasping my wrist firmly, Izanagi held me close to him. "Prepare yourself, Higurashi-san. This may be . . . uncomfortable for you."
Clenching my eyes shut, I nodded. "I'm certain it will be."
He chuckled softly, and then I heard only wind rushing in my ears and the weight of the world pressing in on me.
