Disclaimer: I do not own Yu Yu Hakusho or any of its characters. This is simply out of fun for wanting to see more of each characters story through my eyes. i do not profit only hope people when enjoy it as much as I enjoy writing it! :)


Prologue:

Cracks of light piped through the blinds of the dimly lit room. Yusuke stretched his body with a morning yawn. The bedding felt so good to his well toned body. He deducted that it had to still be early in the morning. The rays of light from a full sun rise would bring much more light to his room. He lived at his usual apartment. His mother had met someone and bounced back and forth between the boyfriend's home and the one shared with Yusuke. Yusuke really did not mind it to be honest the peace was nice.

Peace.

A part of him still could not get used to being back home with so much peace. It had been already been a month since he had returned that day. A smirk took hold of his lips. It had been a good welcoming. A little lip action from Keiko and then a water fight in the ocean with all of his friends. After viewing the full sun set everyone returned to Genkai's home for a little visiting. It mainly turned into him telling every one of his adventures along with a game of twenty questions.

Nonetheless it was a fun night, a fun normal night. Yusuke even earned himself one of Keiko's famous smacks, smacks he would never admit out loud he had greatly missed, after commenting about her very see through wet school uniform. The thought alone caused another smirk to his face as he stretched out once more earning a few cracks from his popping back. Yusuke could hardly believe how sore he was. World's greatest champion and still a week of hard labor left him exhausted. Since he had been back Keiko's father had requested Yusuke run the new and second ramen shop they were opening. Keiko's parents had always adored Yusuke. How could he have possibly declined? Money did not just grow on trees right?

Keiko had matured quite a bit developing as women should. Even before that he had always known she was a beautiful, intelligent, devoted and spirited girl. Hell someone had to be like that to put up with him. Yes, he loved her very much always had. Keiko was just graduating high school. She was enrolled in the local college to become a teacher. Her internship would be beginning not to long after summer starts. Yusuke could not help but like the idea of Keiko being a teacher. She had always been on his case about school and class so it seemed fitting. Although she was going to learn real quick she could not hit the children around like she always did him. The two of them planned to get married once she got done with college. Which Yusuke had been okay with, the way he saw it they were together regardless of being married or not.

Kuwabara had seemed to adapt very well to high school life. Girls did not even run away at the site of him anymore. Yusuke smiled again. Awe he could not help but think it. No Kuwabara was an okay kind of guy. To be honest Yusuke was not exactly sure what Kuwabara's plans for college were. Getting in was just the first priority. Kuwabara often visited Yukina at Genkais shrine. He would actually spend so much time over there Genkai would have to kick him out so Yukina could continue her training. Genkai had been working with Yukina on her dormant ice powers. However, mainly she was teaching her more perfected healing techniques and spirit energy control. Yusuke was sure it was unlike what Genkai put him through. No he was sure the teacher did not go around calling the ice maiden dumb ass.

Botan had also been residing at Genkai's with Yukina. Koenma, who Yusuke had yet to see since they bided farewell, had allowed Botan to stay on the human world as a sort of vacation. Yusuke could tell she really enjoyed it. Botan often would aide Genkai in training Yukina or would help around the shrine. She ventured into town to visit and have girl's days with Keiko or Shizuru or both. No one would ever have suspected that she was once the "bingo" grim reaper.

Kurama had been the one Yusuke often found himself around. Kurama declined college much to everyone's surprise. His father had been so eager for Kurama to work at his company. As far as Kurama was concerned he knew that was where he wanted to be so what was the point of college. His father's company was right across the street from Yusuke's noodle shop. More than often Kurama would come down to the shop for lunch. If Yusuke did not catch him there it would normally be at the coffee shop before they both would go to work. They mainly would talk life.

Hiei was the only one Yusuke had not seen in awhile aside from Koenma. Kurama would keep up with him every now and then. He was working on his patrols. Since the wall between the demon world and human world had come down peace had been sustained. It was still hard to believe that Sensui had fought so hard to achieve the destruction of the barrier and now it was gone. Only certain demons were a loud to travel back and forth. The troop Hiei worked for was sure to monitor this. Hiei had still yet to tell Yukina of his identity. Kurama deducted that Hiei was still coming to the human world to check on Yukina. He would every once in awhile leave Yukina gifts anonymously. Items such as Kimonos or jewels sometimes even heirlooms of sort. Yukina in her heart knew it was her brother which often frustrated the younger demon for she wanted to know his identity very badly.

Yes life had basically gone back to normal. Yusuke had on the side even started his own detective agency. For anything weird strange or unnatural, he could solve anything. However business had seemed to be slow. Maybe the peace treaty that Enki had formed really had been strong. Yusuke knew at times he was bored but he really wanted to give the normal life thing a try. He knew he owed that to Keiko. And he was enjoying himself and having fun.

If only Yusuke knew how crazy life was about to get once again.


AN with a little Q&A:

Hello everyone! MysteriousFlame here! I just finished re watching all of Yu yu Hakusho and read the manga. Had a lot of time on my hands and it was on my list so why not. But, I was really inspired and it ended up being one of my newest favorite anime/mangas. So hell why not write a fic. Basically I am going for a pretty realistic fic here. It is going to be set after the ending of the series. I am planning to pull both elements from the anime and manga. There will be quite a few pairings and I plan on spending quite a bit of time on each character. Because Yusuke and Kurama are my favorites they probably will get a little more spot light! It will be a Keiko/Yusuke Kuwabara/Yukina pairing. Like was in the anime/manga. Like I said im keeping it real! Ive never before made an OC but am going to take a crack at it because I think Kurama needs someone pretty amazing. Still undecided upon what to do about Hiei! For anyone who has read any of my stories I love interaction with the readers. So if anyone has any suggestions or things they would like to see please please please I cannot stress anymore please send me a message, leave a comment or a review and I will get back to you! Okay with further ado let the story begin! Ja ne
