Hi,
thanks for the many dear pn's !!!!
I also don't know why it didn't work out with the clerks. everything was set correctly !! I already had it in another ff.
weird ... weird !!!
I hope it works this time.
it was almost impossible to upload this chapter ... it took me days. it just didn't work.

well hopefully it works this time with uploading and your clerks ;-)

Furthermore...
this chapter also reveals the identity of the black figure, please don't bother me. i thought the idea was good! it is something different than the usual from this direction!

but I don't want to bore you any longer, so let's go:

Chapter 8 Between space and time

Sango and Miroku took up fighting positions. They wanted to circle him. *This can not be! * Inuyasha thought and immediately shouted: "No, we have to attack Takuan from one point." But it was too late. While Inuyasha had called Sango and Miroku over to him and Kagome, the demon had already rushed towards Inuyasha.Since the speed of the attack was really very high, the Hanyou could no longer evade it, was thrown against a tree and lay unconscious.

Kagome went pale as death. This situation looked familiar to her! Inuyasha had said that this was how his dream went, and her dream last night wasn't really any different. Should this dream come true now? She quickly ran to Inuyasha to see what had happened to him. Meanwhile, Sango attacked Takuan. With all the power she hurled her boomerang in its direction. On the first try, he dodged and she didn't hit him. She heard him laugh maliciously. Not only with all her strength, but also with all the anger she had inside, she threw the boomerang again. This time it looked as if everything went (or rather, written, flew (?) :-P) as she wanted it to. First he flew past the demon and when he came back, Takuan was exactly in his flight path.Confident of victory, Sango began to grin. But while the boomerang was still spinning, Takuan caught it, turned once on its own axis and hurled it towards the demon hunter. She had no chance to evade. With full force, she hit her own boomerang in the stomach. She was thrown back by the force of the hit and finally fell to the ground with a loud groan.

Kagome watched with horror what was happening before her eyes. NO! Then she noticed how Miroku got ready to insert his black hole.
"NO !!!! Miroku, you are not allowed to use your Kazaana now! Trust me, you would not survive it!" Since Kagome had repeatedly been right with her statements that day, Miroku quickly covered the black hole again.

Kagome thought desperately, what should she do? It really all went as she and Inuyasha had dreamed. There had to be some way out! Inuyasha slowly stirred again.Meanwhile, Miroku tried to draw all attention from the demon.
"Inuyasha, what should we do? Everything is going as it did in a dream," Kagome's desperation gushed out. But the Hanyou wasn't that far. No matter what happened, she wouldn't let her dream experience come true!

Miroku's appearance increasingly resembled that of a man who had neither the ability to defeat his opponent nor the strength to do so. “Shippo, go and help Miroku. I have an idea!” Without paying attention to what had happened in her dream, Kagome sent Shippo into the battle to continue to distract Takuan. As if she had never done anything else, Kagome conjured up one of her arrows and placed a request in that arrow. * Don't let our dream come true, please! *
Kagome stood up and aimed at Takuan. Too late, Shippo was also thrown into a tree like Inuyasha and you could hear all the bones in his little body breaking.Everything except Miroku's injured black lot had now happened. There was no point anymore.

“MIROKU, GET OUT OF THE WAY!” At that moment Inuyasha came to completely and saw what had happened. "KAGOME, NO DO NOT DO THAT!" he called with all his might. But it was too late. Kagome shot the demon, who looked surprised. He felt what a mighty force the girl had put in her arrow, but just as quickly as the arrow flew towards him, he recovered. With the same defense as with Sango he caught the arrow, turned once around his own axis with the swing he picked up and then let go of the arrow, which was now flying towards Kagome.

Silence…

A dull sound was heard. Kagome had been pinned to a tree by her own arrow and hung her head motionless. That was too much! Inuyasha, who was only able to pull himself up slowly, noticed how the father's blood entered his veins and began to boil.Miroku, however, no longer knew what to do. Even if Kagome might be right and he wouldn't survive, he had to use his black hole! It couldn't be that all of his true friends died and he didn't do anything because he knew that this fate awaited him too. He straightened up with a determined look. After a little movement, the prayer beads rattled off his hand and the black hole was exposed. He held the pull on the demon with all his might.

"Do you really think I'll let you defeat me with a trick like that?" Takuan laughed maliciously. He was being pulled inch by inch close to Miroku, but it didn't seem to bother him that much. * Now the bastard has no chance! * Thought the monk, for the youkai was constantly being attracted. Then, suddenly he felt a sharp pain ... Miroku looked in disbelief from the side at the palm of his hand. It wasn't quite what Inuyasha and Kagome had dreamed of, but the demon had torn deep wounds in his hand with one stroke of his paw.Miroku tried to banish his Kazaana again with a disappointed and pained look at the same time. It was very difficult for him and with the last of his strength before he fell unconscious to the ground.

Inuyasha could only follow the action with his eyes. Slowly but surely, he could no longer suppress his demonic inheritance. He felt his desire to smell, feel and taste Takuan's blood grow more and more. He struggled to hold back the boiling blood in his veins, struggled to keep his mind, but his consciousness kept slipping through his fingers like sand ... It was too late. The transformation could no longer be stopped.

What was that ... ... Inuyasha had still tried to fight it inside. Now he stood abruptly a little apart from the fighting and nothing stirred anymore, not a leaf, not a branch, not a living being. He saw Sango and Miroku lying on the ground, Shippo at the foot of a tree. He could see Kagome as blood leaked from the wound on her left shoulder and slowly soaked her clothes.The demon looked like a figure made by a sculptor who was about to sprint. Inuyasha's gaze followed the direction Takuan was taking, if he could move. He was frightened, a bit away from the demon, he stood, or rather, his transformed self. Never in his life had the Hanyou thought about what he looked like as a full-fledged demon and well, he didn't like it at all.

"Where am I?" Inuyasha said to herself and went to Kagome and wanted to help her. “You can't change anything here!” The Hanyou turned around and saw the black figure in front of him, who had already helped them once and which, as he now noticed, was the figure who had spoken to him and appeared in his dream was.
“Who are you and what do you want?” The figure looked around. "I have repeatedly warned you, keep your hands off this demon. But you didn't want to hear!" Angry Inuyasha jerked her arm and pressed her against a nearby tree.He wanted to question her to maybe find a way to help the others and defeat the demon. The figure screamed, the Hanyou let go of it out of reflex. She sagged to the floor and held her left shoulder and Inuyasha could see blood. "Whatever is wrong with you, I don't care! I just want to know who you are and how I can defeat Takuan!"

"It's nice, you're still the old one! I've missed you so much!" Inuyasha looked at the figure a bit confused now. "So you didn't notice?"
"What should I have noticed?" Answered the Hanyou harshly. The figure straightened up cautiously. “Let's take a few steps and let us explain!” Inuyasha didn't want to, he was in a hurry. Kagome and his friends might still be saved. "You can give yourself all the time in the world that you want and need here! There is no time here," the figure gave him to understand when she realized that he did not want to follow her.Then she turned and went ahead. Slowly it dawned on Inuyasha. "Kagome?" it penetrated carefully to the ear of the black-clad woman.

The hanyou had thought of everything that had occurred to him. That scent so similar to his Kagome; that wound on the shoulder that seemed just as fresh as the one Kagome had from the arrow on the tree; this figure had a female body and; through this woman he went into Kagome's time and confessed his love to her. It just had to be Kagome, even if he didn't understand why.

The female figure turned around. "Yes, but not the Kagome you see there." She pointed to the tree that Kagome was hanging from. Inuyasha's confusion grew, but he decided to listen. "I've come to the past to change our future," said the woman, taking off her mask. Long black hair and a face that really looked like Kagome, only a bit older, around mid-20s, came to light. Slowly a tear made its way down her face.She took Inuyasha a few steps across the battlefield, which still didn't move.

The hanyou was excited. * What's next? * He wanted to know everything! "In my past ...", this Kagome continued, "... we never managed to confess our feelings to each other. Again and again we had these fights and we couldn't find the last splinter. Naraku, of course, had it, like you, right guess! ”Inuyasha looked at her in astonishment. That was exactly what he had thought when he said about the jewel shard.
“How did you know…?” Kagome smiled, it really was her, that smile only had his Kagome. "In your time, yesterday she only started to discover it and she had tracked you down with it. In my time I have been able to do it for a long time and I was able to try to
