Lost

Ranma and Ryoga! Lost Together?

Warning: Not sure if I'll actually be able to keep to their actual characters, but this is just for fun and to satisfy my need for more Ranma 1/2 fanfics about these two. 

Ranma finally looks around, she had no idea where they were. You couldn't see anything but trees and the slowly darkening sky through the canopy and dissipating rain clouds. 

"I can't believe you got me lost!" Ranma yells up Ryoga, who's a little more than a head taller than her right now. 

Ryoga rolled his eyes, "Your the one who followed me!" he growled back. 

Earlier in the day...

Ranma was bored. All the same old nonsense was getting, well old. That's when he noticed a familiar figure. 

Ranma jumps down off the fence and trots over to Ryoga. He comes up next to him and pears around to look at Ryoga's face. "Yo." 

Ryoga ignores Ranma. 

Ranma frowned at him. Soon he fell into step slightly behind Ryoga. Ranma tried a few things to catch the other boys attention but he continued to ignore him. Ranma watched Ryoga curiously, why hadn't he acknowledged him yet?

Ranma didn't noticed the gray clouds gathering ahead or that the buildings were turning to trees. He was mistakingly blinding following Ryoga. 

Suddenly Ranma froze when Ryoga looked up and quickly took out his umbrella. That's when the rain started pouring. 

Ranma's loud yelp of surprise finally made Ryoga turn around. "Your still following me?" Ryoga said in annoyance. 

The present...

"I was not!" Ranma argued. 

Ryoga glowered at Ranma. "Oh, then what would you call it?" 

"You were ignoring me!" Ranma flared her arms out trying to justify it wasn't her fault. 

Ryoga sighed, "So? I didn't feel like dealing with you today."

"Why? Have something more important to do?" She raised an eyebrow and placed her hands on her hips. 

Ryoga didn't answer instead he started to study his surroundings. He scanned the size of the area and then the trees. 

"Hey!" Ranma yelled.

Ryoga continued to ignore Ranma and set his bag next to a tree. Retrieving his tent and a few other supplies. 

Ranma tilted her head and watched Ryoga set up his tent. 

"How about instead of standing there you go find some dry firewood." Ryoga suggested with his back turned to Ranma. 

"Why don't you?" Ranma shot back. 

Ryoga turned slightly and glared at her, "because unless you want to go hungry your going to make the fire." 

Ranma huffed but left to look for firewood. She glanced up at the sky not realizing how close to nightfall it was. She wondered if any of the others even cared that she hadn't shown up for dinner yet. 

Ranma had found a few dryish sticks and was heading back to where she thought Ryoga had been. It was already much darker then earlier. 

A low growl came from behind some trees to Ranma's right. She froze and turned towards the noise. 

The creature slightly emerged from the shadows, but just enough for Ranma to see some of it's features. The sticks fell to the ground in a clatter. A loud shrilling scream cut through the forest.
