Hey. Back again with another story. I've been thinking of this one for a while. Ok. This is rated PG13 because of Yusuke's mouth (obviously) and maybe Hiei's. I'm not sure yet. This is my first romance fic. Anyway on with the story!

Disclaimer: I do not own anything (especially not money -_-)!

Remembering Keiko ~ Chapter 1~ Yusuke's back!

~Keiko's POV~

It's been 6 years since I've seen him. That boss of his, Koenma I think was his name, sent Kurama and Hiei out to look for him. Yusuke never came back from that stupid mission of his. I still remember back then when I was in college, before he left.........

~~~~~~~~Flashback~~~~~~~~

"Keiko you never date anyone. All the hot guys ask you but you just turn them down. Why?" Keiko was at a dance with her friends. They had forced her to come.

"I have my reasons." She was secretly thinking of Yusuke who barely ever visited her in college. In fact he had only visited once. She still missed him dearly.

"What reasons?" Her friends were always so curious.

"Reasons."

A slow song started. All of her friends went to go dance with their boyfriends. She was left by herself.

"Wanna dance?" A guy asked her. He had gelled back hair and his voice seemed strangely familiar. Keiko looked up.

"Yusuke!" She jumped and hugged him.

"Hey," was his reply.

"Where the heck have you been you idiot!" She let go of him and slapped him hard on the cheek.

"Keiko! What the hell?! You're hugging me one second and slapping me the next!" He sat on the ground nursing his red cheek.

Everyone who was watching them seemed confused. Was this guy the reason she didn't date anyone?

"Sorry Yusuke." Keiko smiled that brilliant smile that almost sent Yusuke bonkers.

"It's ok. Keiko, I've been meaning to ask you something."

"Yeah what?"

"Come on." He pulled her onto a bench that was hidden behind bushes. "This needs to be private."

Keiko just stared at him blankly.

"Kei, I've been think about this for a while. I know this is really early to ask you but I can wait for a couple of years. I just don't want anyone to steal you away from me." Yusuke looked into her eyes.

Keiko suddenly became very nervous.

"Will you marry me?" He reached for a tiny blue box in his pocket.

She was completely caught off guard. There was a stunning ring inside the box with a blue gem in the middle of some diamonds shaped as petals. She just looked at him and stared for a couple seconds.

"Kei, you okay?" Yusuke was worried since she just froze for a while.

"Of course I will Yusuke."

"You - You will?"

"Yeah. I love you Yusuke." She smiled.

Yusuke grinned from ear to ear. Then he kissed her. Keiko felt as if this was what she was waiting for all these years. He pulled away and hugged her.

"I love you too Kei." Yusuke was so happy.

~~~~~~~End Flashback~~~~~~~

I'm twenty-five now. I'm still waiting for him to come back. Feeling the ring on my finger, I smile into the sunset. Waiting.

~Normal POV~

"Ogre what the heck happened to Yusuke?"

"I don't know Koenma sir."

"Hmmm." Koenma (in his baby form) twirled around on his chair. He had sent him to kill those stupid so called 'shinobi' demons. But he never came back.

"Better call Kurama and Hiei, Koenma sir."

"Right." Koenma picked up his phone and called them.

"Yes Kurama speaking."

"Kurama, how's the search going?"

"We found him sir."

"You did? Already?"

"Yes, in the shinobi village. They said they found him half - dead in a desert."

"WHAT! IN THE SHINOBI VILLAGE! YOU MEAN THOSE DEMON SHINOBI?"

"Yes sir. It seems that is what they are."

"Is Yusuke okay?"

"Actually sir...................."

"What is it Kurama?"

"He doesn't remember a thing."

"WHAAAAAAATTTTTTT!!!!!!!!!!"

"The shinobi said they found him blabbering his name and that was the only thing Yusuke seemed to remember. We've talked to him and he doesn't seem to know us."

"Oh God. Bring him back Kurama."

"Yes Koenma sir."

"Kurama let me speak to him." Koenma heard Hiei's voice in the background.

"What the HELL were you thinking to send Yusuke on this mission by himself. The poor bastard doesn't remember a thing! Not even Keiko! Imagine how she must feel."

"Now Hiei I had no choice."

"What do you mean 'you had no choice'? OF COURSE YOU HAD A CHOICE! Yusuke was brainwashed because of you! Idiot!" Hiei got frustrated and hung up.

"You shouldn't have done that Hiei."

Hiei glared at the fox.

"Besides why are you so angry at Koenma? I thought you cared about no one except for Yukina." Kurama smirked.

"Because kitsune, I never got to kill him." Hiei was now glaring at the ground.

"You can kill him now."

"It won't be the same. It's not him. He doesn't even know how to fight. It's sad really."

~~~~~~~~~~~

Koenma stared at the phone.

"Ogre. Get Keiko on the screen, but don't talk to her."

Jorge (or however you spell the ogre's name) pressed some buttons on the screen and Keiko showed up. She was staring at the sunset looking very sad indeed. Koenma sighed. It was his fault. They were engaged and he basically ruined their relationship.

"Sir! Kurama and Hiei are here!" One of the workers announced.

"What? Already?"

"Yes sir."

"I should have expected it with their speed. But they have Yusuke with them."

Kurama came walking up with a body on his back. Hiei following close behind.

"We're sorry sir. We had to knock him out. He wouldn't um..........."

"cooperate" Hiei interrupted. Kurama nodded and put Yusuke onto the chair.

"No worry. I have some medicine." Koenma reached for a bottle filled with blue liquid. He fed it to Yusuke.

"Tell me. Why wasn't he cooperating?" Koenma was curious.

"He was convinced that the Shinobi village was his home. Since he was living there for the past six years." Kurama looked blank for a person (or fox) with so much wisdom.

Yusuke woke up.

"What? Where am I?"

"The spirit world, Yusuke," Koenma answered quietly.

"How do you know my name?" Yusuke was still a little drowsy.

"You used to work for - "

Suddenly Keiko came bursting into the room with Botan and Kuwabara.

"I knew it! Urameshi is home!" Kuwabara had a look of utter surprise.

"Yusuke!" Keiko basically threw herself onto Yusuke. "When did you get back? Kuwabara told me he sensed you."

"Who are you?" Yusuke looked down at the woman who was on top of him (don't get sick ideas).

"What?" Keiko pulled herself away from him. "I'm Keiko," she said in total disbelief.

"I don't believe we've met before." Yusuke stared into her eyes. Somehow they triggered something in his mind.

Keiko glanced at Kurama and Hiei but they looked away sadly and then she stared at Koenma.

"He lost his memory Keiko. He doesn't remember us. He was brainwashed." Koenma was staring at particularly nothing.

"No." Keiko sunk to the floor.

A girl with raven black hair and dark eyes came up and her arm around Yusuke's shoulders. No one had sensed her. Keiko looked at her with wide eyes. Kurama and Hiei narrowed their eyes at her.

"Who are you?" Koenma was on the verge of yelling out for security.

"Miho, Yusuke's girlfriend."
