A dizzying trap

"You should have more trust in them, okay?" Liv said, finally drawing to a pause. The walls of their new mazelike surroundings had stayed almost completely identical as they proceeded--the same endless rows of bamboo stalks. Liv reached to her belt and pulled free a knife, turning toward the wall. "Fuu knows what she's doing. And she has the whole rivers and roads navigation bullshit to keep them from getting lost."

As she talked, Liv placed a hand on the wall, bracing herself as she hacked through the top layer of bamboo. The razor sharp blade slid through easily, and she pulled away a small square only to reveal a second layer of reeds behind it, layered horizontally this time. "Gods damnit."

Liv had slipped her knife into the hole and was about to start cutting through the next layer when a sudden dizziness came over her. She felt confused, thoughtless, and warm. She hated it.

Liv jerked back, leaving her knife embedded in the lower wall. Despite her strong physical sense, the jerky motion threw her off balance, and Liv toppled over backward, landing on her butt. The blurry sensation still swirled in her mind, and suddenly felt a strange, pulsing pleasure all throughout her body. It was strangely distant, like she was watching herself have sex through a pleasant, warm fog. She grit her teeth, but when she tried to get a grip on herself, it was as if there was simply nothing to grab on to.

"Liv! Are you okay?" Liv felt a hand on her shoulder returning her to reality. She tried to climb to her feet, but lost balance and would have fallen once more if Skye hadn't been there to catcher against her chest. "If you need to sit down, that's fine--we can take a break for a bit."

"I'm fine!" Liv snarled, brushing Skye's hands away from her. Her eyes squeezed shut as she grit her teeth, just trying to focus, but she immediately lost her balance once more and went stumbling forward. She threw her hand out toward the wall for support, but it was as if the wall wasn't there. Liv fell forward and just kept falling, everything seemed to disappear, Skye, the walls, even the floor beneath her until she was simply falling into nothing, struggling desperately against the lustful confusion that tried to dominate her mind.
