Disclaimer: I do not own Inuyasha. If I did, would I be writing this?
Updates: I'm really sorry people! I never meant to not update. My idiotic computer got all messed up, and wouldn't let me edit my story and profile (which still drastically needs it). I plan on posting up Chapter 5 right after I finish editing it today, just so you wonderful people don't have to wait any longer then I've already made you wait.

Lisa: Will you quit saying that? I'm not a genuis, dammit!
Anon: As much as this pains me to say it, I cannot add Davis to
my story. She seems like a blast to write! But, I'm already up to
chapter 20 for 'No Way Out,' and I don't really find the need to add
any more characters, as that would add to the already confused-ness of
the story. Maybe, if you'll let me, I can include her in the sequel
that I plan on writing?
Now, on to the story! Warning: There is some mild swearing in this chapter, and the rest to come.
No Way Out
Chapter 4 - My Ramen!
I went to grab the last ramen from above fire. When I was about to dive in and eat it, Inuyasha stole it from me.
"Inuyasha, you bastard! Give me back that ramen!" I whined.
He grinned and held it above his head before I could snatch it. I jumped up to grab it, but he raised it higher.
"Come on, I'm hungry! Give it back, Inuyasha!"
"No. I'm hungry too, y'know," he growled. I snarled at him when he pushed me back again.
"Give it back, dog-boy!" I said as I fell down. "You can't mock the short!"
He grinned and started eating it. "I can, and I will." I stared up at him, trying my best to pull off my old 'aw-you're-not-really-gonna-do-that-to-a-tiny-little-half-wolf-girl-are-you?' look. Damn. The last time I tried that must've been ten years ago, with Mama.
Too bad it didn't work.
Kagome just sat there, laughing. I felt sorry for myself, but really, for the others. It seemed that I kept waking them up by my yelling.
I jumped up and took the rest of the ramen from Inuyasha. He wasn't expecting it, I guess, because Inuyasha doesn't seem like the kind of hanyou to just give up something... I grinned to myself, happy that I got it away from Inuyasha.
I jumped into a large, nearby tree, then quickly gulped down the rest of the ramen. I realized that this was only the second meal, the other package of ramen being the first, meal that I'd had in almost 2 weeks.
Both Kagome and Inuyasha stared up at me like I was crazy. Luckily, Miroku, Sango, and Shippou went back to sleep, so they didn't see the spectacle. Kirara, the two-tail, was curled up next to Sango.
I grinned and stuck my tongue out at Inuyasha. "Ha!"
Inuyasha stared up at me. "I can't believe it."
I laughed. "Better believe it, dog-boy. You got competition!"
"Feh."
Kagome laughed softly, and climbed into what she called a 'sleeping bag.' She yawned and looked up at me, then at Inuyasha. "Be nice, you two."
Inuyasha scowled and looked the other way. I sighed and jumped down, out of the tree. "I'm going for a walk."
"Keh. Like we'll miss you." I rolled my eyes. Idiot Inuyasha... But he's probably right...
Since the group wasn't anywhere near the hot spring, I walked that way. A nice hot bath sounded perfect right about now.
As I had earlier that day, I stripped off my weapons, boots, and fur leg-warmers that were a custom of the Wolf Tribes. I glanced around to make sure no one was around before I stripped off my dress.
I quickly slid into the water to escape from the cold night air. Despite the cold night, the water in the hot spring was hotter then ever. I could only spend a little while longer in it before I got burned.
I closed my eyes and rested my head against a rock behind me. I love these hot springs... Maybe too much?
"I'd hurry up and get out of there, wolf-girl."
Whaddya think? Nice, huh? Aren't you glad I'm just gonna put up the next chapter right away? Cha!
