Yusuke's O.P.V.

"I don't know where Keiko is. When I went over to her house last week, they, all they did was shake their heads at me, shaking their fingers, and muttering about it was my fault and everything. I am so not going back there again." I said explaining to Botan and Kuwabara. "Well, have you at least seen her?" Botan asked in her bubbly voice. "No.no.. not since .. I broke with her. Or if you count seeing her unconsionuce that day." "How many times do I have to tell you that was not Keiko, it was some kind of demon. And once again, Keiko is not a demon." Botan said tiredly like speaking to a small child. "Well, whoever she was, she was hot!" Kuwabara broke in with a silly smile on his face. "I thought you were in love with Yukina?" Botan asked. "I am, but that doesn't mean that I can't have a good look at things." He said sly. Rolling my eyes I kept on thinking on where Keiko could have gone. "Hey Yusuke, speaking of girls, what happened to you and Lina?" Kuwabara asked again smirking. "Yes, what did happen to you and her, I mean like before you used to talk about her constantly and spend all your time with her." Botan said, curiosity twinkling in her pink eyes. "I.. I.. don't really know. I mean sure things were fine, but then she started being all needy and well. she accused me of not being there for her. And. well.. I don't know." I said, sighing in defeat.

The whole truth was, that he began to think a lot about Keiko for some reason. He realized that he still loved her deeply. He had started realizing them again after he had seen a very different her at the destroyed woods. Suddenly the door opened and everybody went quiet.

In the doorway was a short girl, who was even slightly shorter than Hiei. Her long black hair with what seemed like streaks of whit, dark blue and purple were pulled up in a clip. He suddenly noticed her outfit and his eyes grew wide. They slowly moved over her slender body. Dressed in black, her tank top hugged at her chest and it showed her flat stomach. The black mini skirt clung to her waist and ended at the top of her thighs, which showed of her killer legs. Her skin seemed half tanned and half pale, if that was even possible. Her skin seemed to give off an unnatural glow. A moon pendant hung from her slender neck. He looked upward and reached her face. Her face..her face, he recognized that face even if it looked different. He had seen that face for the past sixteen years. (A/N - Just wanted to tell people if they didn't realize that they were all sixteen and in high school. Except you know Hiei, Kurama[even if he looks like a teenager] and I'm not sure about Botan if she just looks like a teenager. I think that she's like Hiei and Kurama age unknown. If anyone knows the correct answer than please tell me. Thank You! ^^) Though it looked very different, he could still recognize that small twinkle in those midnight blue eyes he had seen so many times. He saw this blue stuff sweeped across her eyelid and this black stuff which made her eyes look even more mysterious. He managed to whisper, "Keiko?"

Nobodies O.P.V. ^^

Keiko looked straight at Yusuke's eyes and felt old emotions rising to the surface. She suddenly felt breathless and tried to regain control. Though she still felt betrayed by him, that didn't mean that she hated him completey. Suddenly realizing what she was thinking of, Keiko felt guilt washing over her, she still loved Yusuke she had just realized that now but still loved.

Thankfully the teacher walked, or more likely pushed Keiko, for she was still standing through the doorway. "Please take your seat Ms. Ummmm" he said briskly walking to his desk and setting his briefcase down not even looking at her. She slowly walked down the aisle and went to the farthest seat back. Ignoring the stares and ignoring her click-klack noise of her high-heeled boots. "Well now did everyone have a pleasant summer?" The teacher asked brightly. Seeing all their bored faces, he said "Well, to begin with, we will start with roll call. Kuwabara, Kazuma." "Here" he grunted. "_________, Botan." (A/N - sorry I don't know her last name, if she even has one.) "Present!" she called cheerfully. Ukimaro, Keiko." "Here." She said quietly and calmly. He looked up and saw who the voice belonged to, so did everyone else. "I beg your pardon?" "Here." Keiko said again, her temper rising. "You are most definitely not Keiko Ukimaro." The teacher said with astonishment in his voice. "Now stop your act and tell me who you are, and for God's sake wear your uniform!" Keiko looked at the teacher and her eyes turned like ice, they stared into those brown ones and spoke out quietly again with barely controlling her temper, "For the last fuckin time, I'm Keiko Ukimaro. If you want to check go to the damn office." "How dare you speak to me like that!" The other students looked back and forth as each spoke. Botan and Kuwabara looked stunned, that was Keiko! Yusuke had a look that was half in an I-knew-it-look, and a bewildered look. Keiko sat there staring daggers at the teacher spitting out each word, "I'm Keiko." It would have rather been funny, but the way she was talking and looking at the teacher, they knew she was about ready to rip his head off. "GO TO THE OFFIICE NOW AND DETENTION FOR PRETENDING TO BE SOMEBODY!!!!!!" he spat spit flying everywhere. Keiko calmly wiped some spit that landed on her face. "I'm not going to the office and getting detention for something I have not committed." "The last time, what's your name?" the teacher asked trying to sound calm. "Keiko Ukimaro." She said simply. "GO! NOW!" he roared. "YOU NO WHAT!! YOU KNOW WHAT, I'M SICK OF LISTENING TO YOU AND HAVING TO WIPE SPIT OF MY FACE!!!!" she yelled losing her control. And with that she ran out the door and was gone from view.

Stunned nobody in the classroom spoke or moved, till the teacher said, "Now please take your seat and I'll finish off roll call." Everyone stared at him like he was a lunatic; Yusuke just stood there till he suddenly walked out and started looking for her.

Keiko climbed up the roof and laid on the roof seething at how the teacher was unfair. I make an effort to come to school and look how the teacher treated her. But then of course she didn't really blame him for reacting that way when she said she was Keiko. But still! Closing her eyes at the hurtful light, Keiko tried to calm down. "Kkkkeeeeiiiikkkkooooo" a voice whispered, but not aloud, it was in her mind. She sat up and looked around. That voice seemed too familiar. Then she saw a beautiful woman come out of he shadows. She knew she had seen her before. Her long black hair swayed back and forth, it reached the bottom of her back. Her skin was very pale, and made her eyes look like huge black bottomless pits. She walked with grace and poise. Her apparel was a black tube top and a long see through skirt with two long slits at the side. Her feet were bare. To Keiko, it seemed like she was born in the shadow, walking out for the first time. Suddenly realization hit her and she knew. A slow smile crept up on Keiko's lips and she whispered, "Hello. Sakura."
