representatives. It is against the law of humanity."
"What do I care about your law of humanity? He is my servant and therefore only obeys my commands. As for your question: He was born on the date that I treasure so much and that I have waited for years!"
"The 6.6. 666 ... no.", Echoed the newcomer.
"Yes," grinned Satan, "my dearest God."
~~~~~~~~~~~
Kagome had tried to call Inuyasha a few times. But he hadn't reacted to it. The miko didn't know what to do, except to run into the devil's aura ... but that was asking too much. But on the other side there was the woman and Inuyasha ... someone had to help them! And it didn't look like God or even Satan was going to do anything.Satan would probably be fine if the woman died there.
Kagome was in a bind. She could easily turn around ... but ... the woman! Inuyasha! She hadn't been able to prevent this young man from growing to her heart. He had done what only her family had been able to do: talk to her normally. With respect, yes, but normal. Inuyasha had been like her.
Kagome made a fist. She didn't care what kind of aura the devil had! The well-being of their fellow human beings was the top priority! Defiantly she threw her head back and stepped over the border ...
... the border between black and white.
~~~~~~~~~~~
"I should have stopped it," muttered God.
"But you didn't do it. All these years you said that you would not let a brat come into the world on this wonderful date. And yet it did happen - three of the four children were killed. One was not. And this is exactly what is alive now still. When his earthly time is over, I will bring him to me. "
Satan grinned. He knew that God was not infallible. Just like his people. How did you say so beautiful? The apple never falls far from the tree.
God winced. He noticed Kagome preparing to touch Satan's servant.
"NO!"
~~~~~~~~~
Kagome flinched. Startled, she stared at the pure aura of God, for her human eyes were still useless. "Wh ... why ...?", She breathed questioningly, the hand that was just outstretched pressed against her chest.
"Don't touch him," said God quietly. "You both would pass away."
Kagome stared at that white aura for a few seconds before turning her face back to Inuyasha's aura. "But ... the woman ... Inuyasha ..." she stammered unhappily.
"Take the woman out of his arms. But don't touch him," said God quietly.
The miko snorted. "And how ?! I can't see anything!And the woman's aura is almost gone ... "
Nobody said anything until Satan spoke up, “Pretty bold, your little virgin, dear God.” It should sound mocking and it had.
"Come back," the Almighty ordered softly. "You can't do anything. Satan shouldn't be here, but our contract allows him to bring people to him. He's right, even if he's here. Come back, Kagome."
~~~~~~~~
The miko didn't move. She didn't want it. She didn't want to just leave Inuyasha and the woman to their fate. This woman was carrying a child. And Inuyasha had grown dear to her. He was like her. How could she take responsibility for abandoning the only kindred soul?
... so what should she do ...
~~~~~~~~~
God looked down on his virgin. She disobeyed him. She remained seated next to Beelzebub's servant. It did not please the Almighty. How could she defy him?
Good and bad should live past one another, not one another. And yet he had been unable to prevent the event that night. Little did he know what made Kagome venture outside on that rainy night. All he knew was that she had broken away from him then. Kagome had felt the evil. Just as Satan's servant is good. They weren't able to coexist. Actually, they should never have met ... well, Beelzebub's boy was smarter than he had thought ... and immortal too. What was it about him that made Satan choose him as his eternal servant?
~~~~~~~~
Inuyasha could not see anything, his whole existence consisted of only the color black. Black ... yes, that was the color of his life. Right from the start. His hair was black, he dressed in black. Wasn't black also the opposite of white? Wasn't black to blame while white proclaimed innocence? Yes ... black was a bad color.If it were up to God, everything would be warm, soft and wonderful. A cursed illusion ...
When had it been again where the devil had first seen him? Up until that day he had felt completely normal. Now he knew ... and wished he was ignorant. To die…
--- It had rained that day. The sky had been gray and dreary, and yet he had ventured out into the street. The inn where he had worked as a kitchen boy had burned down some time ago. Since then he has slept on the street and relied on the hospitality of his fellow human beings. Often enough he ate the edible garbage he found on the street. He had actually believed in the miracle and a childless widow would take care of him. Well, a miracle had happened, his life had improved ... but in a different way.
Inuyasha had strolled through the alleys, dripping wet. He had just said to himself that he would have a cold tomorrow when he suddenly felt hot and cold at the same time.
"Inuyasha."
The boy had paused. He hadn't been able to move, not a single muscle had obeyed him. And also to reply something that he hadn't been able to do. Inuyasha could only stand there and stare forward with wide eyes.
"I am Satan."
Oddly enough, that hadn't surprised or shocked him. In a way he had already suspected it ... but it was still up to him to answer, to say something. So he had to keep silent.
"Do you know what I'm doing here? Do you know what I want from you? Turn around, boy. I want to look at you."
And finally, finally Inuyasha's wet and cold body did what it wanted again. Slowly he turned around slightly. "No, I don't know. But since you've already asked, you will surely tell me, huh?" Inuyasha was a polite person, but he couldn't say "your" to Satan.It ... it just didn't work. The hell they said you. It was like an unwritten law.
"Quite right. Inuyasha, you will be my representative. You will proclaim Hell on Earth. Many have done it before you since the earth has turned. And you will be by my side when I call through the Hellhorn for the final battle . "
Inuyasha was silent. Satan had no visible body, there was only his dark aura. "You are talking about Ragnarök? And anyway: Why should I become your servant? You have no right to decide over me. You will only receive that after my death."
"A good question, really. You really haven't fallen on your head. That's good, little one. Regarding your little question: It is determined, neither I nor you nor anyone else can determine that. If the predecessor dies, he will Successor to whoever will be born on this date. Don't wonder who made it up, it's just like that. You don't have much choice, my boy. It's nothing big you have to do. Just what I tell you I will not ask for massacres of you. Only that you lead a few people off the right path every now and then. It will not be difficult. Trust me. "
He no longer knew the reason, but he had driven around to see Satan.
The street behind him had been empty. ---
And yet Inuyasha knew it had never been a dream. Because since that day he could no longer die. No matter how long he hasn't eaten or how badly he was injured. The next day everything was back to normal. At one point he had cursed this ability. He saw people come into the world, live, age, die. But Satan had not listened to his request to finally let him die, if he had noticed it at all.
When would he finally find the salvation he longed for?

"Come to me, Kagome," God commanded more urgently. The servant of Satan reminded him of the serpent in Paradise who had seduced Eve.If he was the serpent, and Kagome was Eve, then who was Adam?
"She won't do it," remarked the devil soberly. It pleased him to see that his servant had seduced a saint. Inuyasha had been smart from the start. Certainly he was a wooden head, and impulsive, but also clever. This was one of the reasons Satan had lured into immortality in Inuyasha. And the hollow head had wanted to get rid of her! People always wanted eternal youth. And no sooner did they have them than they started to complain. Huh! They didn't know what they wanted either.
"I'm not allowing a second snake. Not even here on earth," growled God. Satan noticed the Creator's anger. Oho, could he get mad? That was really something new. "Without the serpent the earth would not exist. You would never have banished Adam and Eve." But God did not even notice Satan's words. He wouldn't allow Eva to be lost again!
~~~~~~~~~~
Kagome sensed the ruler's anger, but that didn't matter. Inuyasha, Inuyasha! Why didn't he wake up? He had to ... the woman ... Miko felt tears run down her cheeks. How could it be that Inuyasha had grown so close to her heart? Just because he was treating her normally? No, there had to be more. She had never cried before. What did he do to her? What had changed for her? "Inuyasha," she whispered. "Inuyasha."
~~~~~~~~~~
God was still holding back. It was a long time since he saw that he was not in Paradise, so many years ago. He only saw Eve and the snake seducing the naive woman. He would never allow something like that again! People, they hadn't learned anything. They had had time, and everything had been fine that long. And now? Now the whole magic started all over again.
Now the devil felt something like discomfort. God and mad? Wasn't it enough that he had flooded the earth before? As a result, he hadn't had any new residents for a long time.Again and again the devil's gaze wandered to the miko and his servant. Inuyasha and Kagome had spoken true: there was a connection between them that no one previously recognized or wanted to admit. Almost something like pride rose in Satan. He wondered what knowledge was still stuck in Inuyasha's head. Everything the kid
