      Summary: We introduce a slight modification of the usual equivariant \(KK\)-theory. We use this to give a \(KK\)-theoretical proof of an equivariant index theorem for Dirac-Schrödinger operators on a non-compact manifold of nowhere positive curvature. We incidentally show that the boundary of Dirac is Dirac; generalizing earlier work of Baum and coworkers, and a result of Higson and Roe. For Part I, see [\textit{D. Kucerovsky}, Proc. Am. Math. Soc. 129, No. 12, 3729--3736 (2001; Zbl 0982.58015)].
