much further either. He saw no choice but to use the kazaana and suck in Naraku. Fortunately for them, the Saimyosho weren't there too this time. Ultimately, only one puppet was sucked in.

Inuyasha and Kagome were lured to a cliff over a river.Naraku was already there, waiting for her. Inuyasha put Kagome down and attacked Naraku right away. He fended off Inuyasha's attacks, but always kept himself safe when Inuyasha attacked with Tessaiga. After another attack by Inuyasha, Naraku also attacked once. But his target was by no means Inuyasha, he single-mindedly attacked Kagome. Inuyasha realized it only at the last moment, and found no other way out than to throw himself in between, since Kagome was unarmed and thus completely helpless. If he did not intervene, she would be exposed to Naraku’s attack and would be lost. And there was no way Inuyasha could allow that to happen. Inuyasha got the full load. Kagome winced as Inuyasha was thrown to the ground by the force. He sagged and doubled over in pain. “Inuyasha! "Yelled Kagome and wanted to run to him. “Stay ... where you are, Kagome! “Inuyasha ordered. Kagome stopped there.She was more afraid for Inuyasha than of Naraku. She desperately searched for a solution with which she could save Inuyasha from this hopeless situation, but found none. Naraku had completely forgotten about her by now. Her only thought was to help Inuyasha. She looked around frantically, searching. At last she found what she was looking for: about ten meters from her, a bow with a handful of arrows lay on the ground next to it. She wanted to go over, but Naraku spoke up again. "Where do you want to go? He asked menacingly. Kagome felt cold and she stopped again. Inuyasha got to her feet, panting. "Kago..me ... I know what you're up to ..." he uttered. "Grab the bow and the arrows ... I'll take care of this bastard while I'm ..." Kagome looked at Inuyasha in horror. "But .. you are hurt! " called her. "That .. is nothing ... don't worry about me, Kagome .. Someone ... has to protect you from that bastard after all ... and I guess it's just me ... so do him cold...!"Inuyasha said and now straightened up completely. Kagome looked at Inuyasha. "You ... mean business ... right? She wanted to know hesitantly. "Naturally. Who and what do you think I am ?! “Inuyasha replied. “So you're still alive, Inuyasha? “Naraku laughed maliciously. “I won't die until I have watched you die! You lousy bastard ... I MAKE YOU COLD! "Inuyasha growled and pounced on Naraku. "What are you waiting for, Kagome ?! Go ahead Shred it into all its individual parts! Inuyasha yelled at Kagome. She nodded, ran to the bow and grabbed it with the arrows lying around it. “Inuyasha, aside! “Kagome called with a bowed bow in the direction of Inuyasha and Naraku. Kagome shot the arrow. Inuyasha managed to jump to safety just in time with a daring leap, but the arrow missed Naraku too. He seized the opportunity that Inuyasha was a few meters away from him and rushed to Kagome.She didn't even have a few seconds to draw the bow again. Naraku had reached her, snatched the bow and arrows from her, and gave her a nudge in the ribs that made her stagger backwards - straight towards the cliffs. Kagome stepped on a loose rock, which in the next moment slipped away from under her foot. She cried out in fear. “KAGOMEEE !!! Inuyasha roared. He ran to the cliff and tried to get hold of Kagome’s hand, but narrowly missed it. No matter how quickly Inuyasha reacted, it was too slow. "Inuyashaaaa! “Kagome fell into the raging river. Inuyasha was still kneeling at the edge of the cliff and looked in dismay at the place where Kagome had fallen into the river. “Are you waiting now to follow her into the waters? Ha! You're not mourning a simple person like this brat, are you? “Scoffed Naraku.Inuyasha straightened up. Hatred boiled in him. “You should have left it alone! That you did that will be your undoing! Your laughter will pass soon enough, I'll take care of that! Naraku, you lousy bastard, you'll pay for this! “Inuyasha was furious with Naraku. He pulled Tessaiga, and before Naraku could utter a sound, Inuyasha rushed over to him. “YOU ABSOLUTELY WANT TO GET TO KNOW MY TESSAIGA? IT WILL BE PLEASURE TO GET TO KNOW YOURSELF! “With that Inuyasha Tessaiga swung. Naraku reacted only a tiny fraction too late. Tessaiga didn't hit him with full force and had defeated him, but it hadn't quite missed him either. Naraku was, like Inuyasha, not exactly injured either. But unlike Naraku, who lost some of his strength due to his wound, Inuyasha had demon-like powers - even when he was in normal condition.He showed no mercy towards his enemy. Attack after attack, sword blow after sword blow, pelted Naraku. Inuyasha didn't let him pause for a second. Even Naraku couldn't take it long, and he finally crashed to the ground. Inuyasha struck two or three more times before letting go of Naraku, whom he had obviously brought down. Suddenly there was a sneering laugh. Only then did Inuyasha realize that he had only been dealing with a puppet. But now that he had beaten his opponent, his concern was for Kagome - he had to find her at all costs, before it was too late! So he jumped down from the cliff to the bank of the river, careful not to get into it. He searched every imaginable place where Kagome might have aborted. However unsuccessful. But Inuyasha, driven by anger, anger and fear, did not give up and kept looking.

He had already come a long way when he met Miroku, Shippo, Sango, and Kirara, who had gone in search of him and Kagome.Inuyasha explained the events and the predicament to her. "What are we waiting for?! Let's go “Called Sango. They split up, each searching a piece of the river.

Driven by the fear for Kagome that it might even be too late, Inuyasha did not rest for a minute. But gradually he too ran out of strength. He knelt on the edge of the river and wet his face with the ice-cold water when he suddenly smelled something. ’Definitely! Kagome’s smell! No doubt she was here! ’But he wasn't just sniffing out Kagome. "What? WOLVES ?! “Inuyasha couldn't believe it. Was it possible that Kouga was around? Inuyasha decided to follow the trail.

Kagome coughed out another load of water and slowly opened his eyes. She was lying in a cave, which somehow seemed familiar to her, but she couldn't say what kind of or whose cave it was. Until she heard a familiar voice.“Ah, Kagome! You are finally awake. How are you? Someone asked. However, Kagome could not assign the voice to anything or anyone. Her senses were still completely clouded. "Hm? What? Where am I? “Kagome sat up carefully. "Eh? Kouga ?! “She opened her eyes. "Hey! What shoud that?! Didn't I tell you to leave me alone, you idiot ?! “She snapped at Kouga. "What? Should I have left you by the river so that you would drown or even be eaten by demons ?! "Replied this snotty. "Uh .. no .. but ..." Kagome stuttered. "So what. “Said Kouga satisfied. Kagome tried to get up. "Where do you want to go? “Asked Kouga, surprised. “Well, get away from here. You saved my life, but my mind hasn't changed. I'm going back to Inuyasha. “As soon as Kagome stood upright, her knees gave way and she fell back to the ground.“You are still too weak, Kagome. Here, drink this, this should help. “Kouga handed her a small bowl with a liquid in it. Although Kagome didn't know what it was, she finished her drink and got up again. And as was to be expected, her legs gave way under the weight. Kouga reacted quickly enough to save Kagome from another fall. The thanks for that was that Kagome knocked him off. “Get off your dirty paws, you bastard! She yelled at Kouga and crawled away from him. Kouga just looked at her, confused. “I DON'T WANT TO STAY! ROGER THAT? “Kouga laughed at Kagome’s opinion. “But you will have to, Kagome. It can't be too long before you can no longer move. Well, then you can no longer escape either, so someone would have to come to save you. But, I hardly think this measly mutt will come. “Kouga was sure of his cause. “Who's a measly mutt here ?!“Came from the direction of the entrance. Kouga spun around. "What? How could you find us here ?! How did you shabby puppy know where my hiding place is ?! "Yelled Kouga at Inuyasha. “It wasn't too difficult. I picked up your trail and it led me right here. "Inuyasha replied triumphantly. His gaze slid across the cave. When he saw Kagome, he winced. "What did you do with her ?! “He snapped at the wolf demons. "Nothing. Don't worry, she's still alive. I wouldn't kill my wife, would I? I just made sure she didn't get away from me. “Answered Kouga. "Inu ... yasha ..." gasped Kagome. "Kagome ..." he muttered. “Hey, if you want her back, dog boy, you have to fight me and win. I won't make it easy for you. You won't be able to do it anyway, so give up and get away with it. “There was something provocative in Kouga’s voice. "Pah!You'd like that, wouldn't you? I'm not a cowardly wolf who pulls in its tail and flees at every opportunity! If you really want it that way, then we'll fight! “Inuyasha was serious. “Good as you mean. Then Kagome can watch me tear you to pieces. That's a nice consolation for you Kagome, isn't it? “Kouga smirked. You'd think Inuyasha would explode in the next instant.

They left the cave. Kagome was also carried out by the other two wolf demons so that she could see everything, but her limbs felt like lead. To make matters worse, Kouga's friends stayed with Kagome, obviously as a guarantee that she would not get away from them, which was impossible in their condition anyway.

A fierce and ruthless fight ensued between Inuyasha and Kouga. As with Naraku, Inuyasha developed demon-like powers, driven by anger, anger - and fear.Even Kouga's speed was of little help, as Inuyasha caught him almost every time. Kagome and the other wolves just watched in
