***Story***

Botan and Keiko are attacked by a powerfull Yokai. While both of them are trying to get up, Yusuke shows up.
Yusuke: I'll take care of him.
Botan (puts his hand in front of him, trying to stop him): No... this time, I fight as well!
Keiko (grabs Yusuke's arm): Why do you always have to fight?
Yusuke: Why...? Do I need a reason to protect you? Do I need a reason to protect my friends?
Keiko hates when Yusuke fights, but she knows that no one could stop him. So she grabs Botan's hand... telling her to stop and let him pass.

***END***

This never happened in the story. Well, not exactly like this. But Yusuke fights for his friends. Most of the times. He's a very interesting and sometimes weird character. There are some moments in the anime when it's like he doesn't give a damn about anything or anyone. And all that he wants to do is fight. He enjoys it. While Keiko hates it. Keiko knew him even since they were kids. But during the anime, they fall in love with eachother. I remember one episode. The Dark Tournament. Yusuke's opponent was too powerfull. Yusuke couldn't even hurt the guy. Keiko was there, watching... she was so shocked and scared that she couldn't even talk. They had to slap her a few times to make her react. Actualy, I think that someone punched her.

Anyway, about the drawing. I just wanted to draw Yusuke. Then I thought of drawing another character... and then I added another one. LOL. I even thought of adding his mom, but I didn't know where to put her. XD
The girl on his right is Botan, and the one on his right is Keiko. The clothes... well, the ones from the anime weren't that interesting. So I drew them how I wanted.
And damn, Yusuke's tattoos are cool.

I added some color in Photoshop... not much though. I could do a lot more. I could draw a background, make the shading even better... but my patience has a limit, and I reached it with this drawing ><. So...

Enjoy!
