Far away in the mystical lands of Mount Paozu, as it was seemingly untouched by the ages that have come forward over time. In these region lands, there has lived an old master by the name of Gohan. One day, while he had went around doing chores he had found a lost little boy with a monkey tail in the wilderness of the forest.

At that day, Gohan had decided to raise the boy as his own and train him in the ways of martial arts. Unfortunately, death has gotten through the old martial artist and unfortunately passed away into the afterlife.

And now, the boy that was named Karna, has now remained as the sole protector of the mountain he lived and from his grandfather's most sacred possession, the Dragon Ball.

12 years have passed ever since the boy known as Karna has landed here on Earth. And at those times, the man who had found him had raised him as his own to make him survive, and have him train on the ways of martial arts. The boy had become unnaturally strong for someone his age.

As of this moment, the boy Karna, was seen on the cliffside as he was rolling a large round wood with his feet while he was standing on it all while he held large butcher saw over his shoulder. He wore an open blue gi secured with a white bow-tied obi over his waist, red wristbands, and dark blue kung fu shoes and also a blue tank top. For the past 12 years he had managed to grow taller as well and looked to be as tall as any 12 year old boy his age, and along that his hair grew with him as well.

Karna was humming to himself as he was casually sliding down on the cliffside like it was nothing to him. "Hm?" he had turned his head to look at some monkeys who were hanging onto one another on a tree. "Oh, I guess you two seem to be hanging around." Karna had joked around with the monkeys, which he made himself chuckle at that. "Well, gotta go now! Hahahahaha!" he laughed enthusiastically as he began to stride down the hill even faster, making some flips along the way so that he could get home.

"Uuuuu…." Karna had stretched out his form. It was a brief exercise he had so that he could gain the proper focus to do what he wanted. "Haaaaaa… hmph!" Karna had picked up the bigger round wood he had collected. "Nnmmmmhh…!" he had struggled somewhat to carry it with his hands as a noticeable red blush came across his face. "Hyaaaah!" That was until he had thrown the wood in the air and he leaped off the ground to ascend to great heights that should have been humanly impossible. "Haaaaah!" Karna had then kicked the wood and had broken it apart.

Karna then landed down on the ground without any type of injury on him. He turned to see that there were beam woods that were accurately placed on top of one another. "Well, I guess that's that!" Karna said, with a goofy grin splattered across his face as he wiped out his hands. That was until he heard his stomach growl. Karna looked down in surprise. "Oh, gosh. I didn't realize how hungry I was. I better go hunting for food now."

What the young boy didn't realize was that fate was soon about to approach him back again, as a visitor was coming over to the mountain regions he lived at.

There were some birds that were flying away when a car had been driving here. The car itself had then stopped as the door connected to it had been opened up, and it revealed to be a 16 year old blue haired girl as she stepped outside the vehicle she had been driving in. "Ahhh… now that feels a little better." the teenage girl said as she was stretching out her back. "Alright, now it shouldn't be too far off from here should it?" the girl then pulled out a green radar from her pocket before she pushed a button on top where it showed a yellow dot, showing that it was somewhere nearby here. "Oh yeah, there you are. You're as good as mine, you little jewel."

The girl went back inside the car before she closed the door and began to drive again.

Karna had put on his Power Pole as he sheathed it on his back while it was wrapped around his body with a strong wire that held it together. "I'm gonna go hunt for some food. I promise I won't take too long, grandpa. So just sit tight, okay?" he had told his "grandpa" who was technically a 4-star Dragon Ball that lied on top of a pillow that was supported by a small pillar.

Karna had turned around to go outside, and that was when he heard something glowing behind him. Taking this as something odd, the boy turned around to see that his Dragon Ball had glowed for the briefest of moments before it stopped. Karna had seemed a little surprised by this, as something like that never happened before. "Oh wow... I've never seen you glow like that, grandpa. Can you do it again?" he had asked.

Except that nothing had happened. "Well, alright then. You can do that later if you want to. I can wait for a while." he said before he went ahead to go outside.

Now Karna had found himself in the middle of the wilderness that he had grown accustomed to over the years where he had lived here. He kept looking around to see what he should eat for today. But there was just so much to chose from. "Man, it's so hard to decide what to eat." his stomach had then growled again. "Maybe I should go for some fish? Yeah, some fish sounds good right now."

Karna had then leaped off the ground as he had gotten his hands onto the branch of a tree, making off a flip before he let go to flow in the air. Karna then grabbed onto a vine where he was able to swing off from there before he let go and fly in the air from the momentum. He had then landed on a small pillar cliff before he hopped off and got on a tree. "But first, I'll grab a quick bite of snack to eat." the boy told himself, as he hopped on a tree branch and took an apple from it.

He had managed to eat the apple in less than two minutes, as he took bites after bites in a rapid pace from the hunger he had felt. He then threw the eaten apple at the ground and proceeded to grab another one to eat it. Except that instead of hitting the ground, the apple hit a Sabertooth Cat instead. Karna looked down on the ground and saw the animal growl beneath his position.

The angered Sabertooth Cat had jumped at the tree to get to Karna, with its mouth raised so that its fangs could strike the child. Karna on the other hand had seemed unphased by the surprise, and instead used his tail to wrap around the tree branch which the animal had completely missed him. Karna had flipped away from the branch before he landed on the ground and started running. "Come on! Catch me if you can!" he laughed energetically as the animal started chasing him.

Where as most people would have been terrified for their lives if they had encountered this animal unprepared, this strange child seemed to be having fun with this. "Come on! You're almost there! Just a little more…!" Karna had a goofy grin from the fun he was having. He turned to see he had made it on the cliff he had wanted. Karna had made it onto the edge and he had fallen down on it, and the Sabertooth Cat had done the same thing.

Except the difference being was that Karna was hanging onto himself by holding onto a tree branch connected by the cliff. The cat itself stopped in mid air before realizing the situation it was in. When it did, its eyes had cartoonishly bulged out of its sockets before it had fallen down to it's doom and hit the river that was far beneath. Karna was gonna go back, but then he heard the sounds of the tree branch snapping. "Uh oh…" Karna said, realizing it was too late to do anything as the branch snapped and he started falling to the river as well. "Uaaaaaaaaaah!" Karna had yelled out before he had hit the river as well. But then, he emerged out of the water seconds later as he was practically unharmed from the fall he had taken. "Hahahaha! That was really fun!" he exclaimed.

Karna had then found a large boulder nearby. He got on top of it and he had taken his clothes off so that he could put them down and let them stay dry. "Alright, now this should be a good time for some fish hunting." he said, as the only thing that remained on the naked boy were his red wristbands. He then used his tail to bring it through the water, but only the tip of it. "Come on… I know you little rascals want it down there…" Karna said, as he waited for the bait to happen.

In the water though, there were several small fishes that swam by and they had seemed interested in the tail that was in the water. They were planning on taking bites at it, but it wasn't until that a large, monstrous fish swam towards them. This had the other fish run away from the large size alone. The monstrous fish had seemed interested in the tail, as it seemingly then jumped out of the water so that it could eat whatever was on the surface. However, Karna had dodged the monster fish's bite and he proceeded to attack by kicking it in the face. His kick has landed directly, and the biggest fish has died with only just one blow handed to it.

"Hehehe, this is great. I didn't expect to have a fish this big but it's good enough for me! This oughta last me until dinner!" Karna exclaimed with a large grin on his face as he was walking down the road again while dragging the dead fish with his bare hands easily despite the weight it must have had.

However, it wasn't until that Karna had heard a strange noise coming towards him. "Hm? What's that noise?" he asked himself. It wasn't any noise he had ever heard before. It wasn't the noise of an animal he knew. But his questions were soon answered when he saw a car heading towards him, and it was going far too fast for it to be stopped. "Huh?! What the—"

The girl who had been driving too quickly had seen the child on the road with his fish, and she shouted in shock when she stepped on to slow down the speed as much as she could and she also turned it around seeing so that there could be less impact. Karna had tried to run away, but due to him being caught off guard it was too late as the car had made an impact on him, which the force was strong enough to send him flying by to a nearby tree and crashed his head against it.

"Oh man… please don't tell me he's dead?" the girl opened her eyes to see that the boy had crashed to a tree. There wasn't any stain of blood on him that was for sure. But she was getting very nervous that she may have accidentally just killed someone without meaning to, especially that of a child. She wanted to check out if he still had some pulse in him left, but she was surprised to still see him move around after that. "He's still alive…" she had sighed in relief.

Karna on the other hand had been on his knees, clenching his head as he had felt pain coming in his head. It wasn't really just from whatever just hit him, but it was more so from something else. Something he couldn't explain properly.

"And my name is... Ichigo Kurosaki!"

"I'm sorry… but I still don't understand. If I were in your position I would use every ounce of my power to fight the law!"

"So how exactly am I able to read your movements this time? Is it because I've grown to be more Hollow-like? Or maybe… it's because you've become more human."

"What an odd reaction… back in our last battle, you asked me why did I back away from you? And now here you are, doing the same thing. So now let me ask you, Aizen, why did you back away just now?"

"Oh yeah... I forgot that you were the first Substitute Soul Reaper. Come at me, Ginjo. It's about time we finish this."

"What the… what am I even getting here?" Karna winced as he held out his head in pain. These flashes that he got in his head… why did they seem somewhat familiar to him? Agh, that didn't matter now. He had to focus on the monster that just attacked him! So Karna turned around and gave off a glare. "So, you thought you could have finished me that easily, huh?! Well think again monster!"

Karna had gotten towards the car as he ran to it. "Hey! Hold on! What do you think you're doing?!" the girl had yelled out as the kid beneath her was starting to lift the car she was still in.

"This is for running me over!" Karna said, as he had thrown the car away from him. He had then pulled out his Power Pole against the car. "Come on! Don't tell me you used up all your power already?!"

The girl had gotten out of the war as her window had been destroyed from the throw that was handed. She held out a gun she had in her arsenal. "Not quite!" the girl had aimed her gun and began to fire at the child out of the fear she felt from him.

Karna widened his eyes at the surprise attack again as he hadn't expected something like this. The bullets came at him and hit him in the head multiple times in the row, and along with some hitting him in the chest as well. His eyes widened at the stings he felt, but more so he felt something that clicked in his mind. Karna fell down on his back as he only laid there.

Now the memories of his previous life were all returning to him. He was remembering everything who he was. He was remembering them all:

He remembered the first time he had met Rukia and got his Soul Reaper powers, he remembered his first meeting with Uryu and stopping his first Menos Grande, he remembered meeting Renji and Byakuya the first time and losing to them, he remembered how he first formed Zangetsu.

He remembered invading the Soul Society with his other friends, his first battle against Ikkaku and winning, his next battle being against Renji and just barely winning, his next battle being the gruesome fight against Kenpachi, after that it was his grueling Bankai training, the time of rescuing Rukia in Sokyoku Hill, and his final battle against Byakuya, and finally Aizen's departure.

Then came the appearance of the Arrancars, his inner struggle against the Hollow within him, the training with the Vizards, the learning of Orihime's kidnapping and the desperation to rescue her, his new added battles with Arrancars and the Espadas against the likes of Grimmjow, his torture against Nnoitra, and finally his final battle against Ulquiorra.

The following session of his brief encounter against the more powerful Yammy, his second encounter against Aizen and the miserable failure of attempts of other Captains, the truth that his life was a lie, his followed battle with Gin, the usage of the Final Getsuga Tenshou and his final battle against Aizen.

The loss of his powers for 17 months, the meeting with Ginjo and the deal of getting his powers back, the training to gain different levels of Fullbring and reaching them at its peak, the psychological torture he went through by Tsukishima, the mental breakdown he had before getting his powers back and along with his final battle against Ginjo.

Then came the Vandenreich to utterly destroy the Soul Society, his first meeting with Yhwach, his Bankai getting cut in half, the meeting with the Zero Squad, the truth he had learned about his life, his origins, and his swords, the battle against several Sternritters, the truth of Uryu being a traitor, his blade cutting down the Soul King and Yhwach becoming one himself, the meeting with Grimmjow and Nelliel, the battle against Askin, and finally the grueling last battle against Yhwach and the witness of his final dying moments.

Karna had gotten up from the ground he lied at, his eyes being as wide as dinner plates. "I... I remember. I-I remember all of it!" he exclaimed as he looked at his hands. "Wait… no way..."

There were more memories he was collecting from this life he lived in instead of the previous one. There was his birth in Planet Vegeta, and his time was mostly spent... somewhere, he didn't know where even was, along with him getting sent to Earth, his crashland here being where his "grandfather" Gohan had found him, and everything after that 12 years passed since he got here.

Ichigo had touched his face, and along with the new styled Saiyan hair he had. 'No… friggin… way. This should be impossible right now. The fact that I'm in THIS place out of all the places I could have been in… how did it end up being in this place?!' the now childish Ichigo thought to himself

The girl on the other hand was way too shocked on the fact that the child she just shot was still standing up after all that, without even so much as a scratch on him mind you. "Wha… but… you shouldn't even be alive right now, kid!" she exclaimed.

"...Hm?" Karna had then looked at the girl with a narrow look on his face. He then made a sigh as he put his pole back in the sheath. "Oh, sorry about that. I didn't really mean to lash out like that. You surprised me there so I only acted in self defense." he told her. 'This can't be real. I cannot be talking to who I think I am talking to right now.'

"Uh…" the girl was just too dumbfounded to even say anything right now.

"So, are you alright? I didn't hurt you too bad did I? I should have known not to really attack like that, especially if it was a human girl as well."

Bulma still had her eyes wide in disbelief. "What the… how are you even still alive?! You shouldn't be alive right now!"

Ichigo has shrugged it off. "Let's just say I was taught by my grandpa some martial arts, well… before he died… and that's the gist of how I'm this strong."

"That is some ridiculous strength you have for a training like that. I didn't think martial arts are supposed to improve you that much…" the girl known as Bulma said, as she had gotten out of the crashed car.

"You would be surprised to know otherwise." Ichigo had looked at the car he had ruined now. "Though it looks like your car is destroyed. So… you might have to stay with me for a while."

"Uh… s-sure?" Bulma nodded in confusion as to what she just agreed to. She saw the kid leaving to go pick up the large fish he had before. This gave her time to pick up her Dragon Radar before she pressed the button on top. To her surprise she found a Dragon Ball that was actually nearby here. 'Huh, maybe the Dragon Ball here is at this little kid's house? Well I better make sure…'.

The two of them had started walking down the road where Ichigo could lead her back to his house. However the boy himself seemed to be in deep thought. 'None of this makes any sense whatsoever. None of, where I'm at now, should be possible right now. I'm in Dragon Ball. THE Dragon Ball world! This shouldn't be happening. Dragon Ball is supposed to be some fictional Anime and Manga series that shouldn't even exist! Yet, here I am, walking with a young version of Bulma from the original series who clearly looks like a teenager. I can't believe it. I'm in the actual Dragon Ball world, hell I'm even wearing Goku's original Gi clothes as well! Though if this is the Dragon Ball world… how could I still be here? Maybe it's the Multiverse Theory? That's the only possible explanation I have now for this crazy way that I live in a world that's supposed to be fiction.'

Ichigo had looked at his hand and clenched it several times. 'No doubt about it. It seems as though that I must have been somehow reincarnated as Goku. This is supposed to be his body, but it doesn't resemble like him, nor does it resemble like mine either! Wait, so who's body is this?! Calm down… just calm down… now I'm replacing Goku's place, and he shouldn't exist in this since... I am him technically. Though if I did replace Goku… then the body I'm in and the young Bulma with me… then the time period I'm in is where Goku — I mean me… is where I'm a child. Not in a Z or Super period, but the original Dragon Ball period.' he thought.

"Hello?! Anyone in there?!"

"Huh?" Ichigo snapped out of his deepful thought trance as he looked back at Bulma as she snapped her fingers at him.

"There you are. I was asking you what was your name?"

Ichigo seemed somewhat surprised by this as he looked back at the road again. He was feeling conflicted now. "Uh…" he didn't know what to go with. The name he had in this world was supposed to be Karna. But he didn't want to lose the original name he had in his life, despite it being the previous one. "It's… well…" he was confused with what to choose. But then he got an idea… "Well… my real name is, Karna. But there were friends I knew that called me Ichigo." he told her.

Bulma seemed somewhat confused with this. "Wait, so is it Karna or Ichigo? Or is Ichigo some nickname your friends have you?" she asked.

"Yeah... I guess you could say that in a way…"

"I can see why your friends would call you that." Bulma had to admit that both names were strange. Though the name Karna was probably the more stranger one. Though the name Ichigo did seem a little funny and kinda sweet as well. The strawberry seemed to fit the brightness of his hair and the unique hairstyle he had as well. "Though uh… you don't mind if I call you Ichigo do you? Cause you do know the meaning behind it, right?"

Ichigo looked down on the ground with a saddened look on his face. "No... I don't really mind it." if this was him a few years back he would have ranted about the real meaning behind Ichigo, but honestly there was no point to it anymore. He already lost everything in his previous life. "Just as long as you don't use it in a way that I don't like, then I'll be fine with that. So uh, what's your name?" Ichigo asked, even though he already knew what her name was anyways.

"My name? Well… uh, it's Bulma."

"Hmmm… alright then."

Meanwhile somewhere else, there was a dark dungeon that looked as though it's been abandoned for a long time. There were two doors that have been opened by two strange figures named Shu and Mai, who are headed by a small blue entity named Emperor Pilaf.

"Ah, there it is at last!" the small blue man known as Pilaf had exclaimed as he had seen another Dragon Ball that lied in front that was supported on a pillar, which had also rested on top of a pillow there. To their left and right were old armors that were allied in opposite sides.

"It's kinda awfully dark in here, sire…"

"Shut up, Shu!" Pilaf had berated his ninja dog-like minion as all three of them had been walking to get the Dragon Ball without a second thought. Surprisingly enough, there weren't any sort of traps active as Pilaf had freely picked up the ball with his hands. "Ah, come to Emperor Pilaf my precious~" he was pleased that he got what he wanted. It wasn't until that some armor next to him had fallen on top of him. "Ah! Get off of me!" Pilaf had nervously pushed the armor away from him which had fallen on the ground. However that was a skull head that had fallen off and some bats came out flying out of the hole eyes.

All three of them had stood there with stunned expressions on their faces before Pilaf had shaken his head off. "Uh… anyway, enough about that! I'm ready to make my wish now!"

"Uh, sir—"

"What now?!"

"You know you can't make a wish with just one Dragon Ball, right?"

"Say what?!" Pilaf was not happy about this.

"Sir, you have to collect all 7 of them in order to make a wish. You can't make all of them with just 1 ball." Mai had stated.

"You mean I have to do more searching…?" Pilaf complained.

"But just bear with us, just imagine the glorious day when all of 7 of the Dragon Balls are collected. A beautiful burst of energy will appear in the air, and in an eternal blaze of fiery power an eternal dragon will appear for the sole purpose of granting you a single wish, whatever it may be."

"Any wish I want…" Pilaf had made a large grin on his face. "Well... I suppose I can handle a little more searching. Oh, I can just see it now… the wish that I would want would be to rule the entire world!" he exclaimed.

Ichigo and Bulma have reached the destination of Gohan's home as Ichigo had opened the doors as he had let go of the large fish he had. "You can stay here for a while till I manage to cook up the fish." Ichigo had told her before he got inside.

When he got inside, he was a little surprised to see the Dragon Ball from earlier he had before he had gotten his memories back. 'Wow… it feels kinda different when you see a real Dragon Ball in front of you instead of how they look in the show.' Ichigo thought to himself.

Bulma had noticed at how he stopped. "Hm? Hey, everything alright back there?" she had asked as she had gotten inside the small house. She looked back at the boy and looked at what he was staring at. When she saw what he was looking at, she was in shock and the feeling of ecstacy came over her. "No way! It is a Dragon Ball here!" she had pushed Ichigo out of the way before she had grabbed the 4-star ball in her hands.

Ichigo was not happy about this. "Hey! What the hell!" he had managed to snatch the ball out of Bulma's hands. "This is mine!" he exclaimed.

"Just calm down, kid. I mean don't you know what you have in there?"

"I know what it is!" Ichigo called back in annoyance. "My problem is that you just come in here, and you just take what belonged to my grandfather!"

Bulma seemed somewhat confused. "Huh? Your grandfather's?"

"Damn straight!" Ichigo felt somewhat conflicted with how he said with Gohan being his grandpa. Despite all the time he had spend with him under as Karna, the memories he had gained back had felt so real like he was with him as well. "So how about you tell me what in your right mind were you thinking about just taking it?!"

"Alright…" Bulma had searched through her purse and she had revealed two other Dragon Balls with her. "Look, the truth of the matter is that I'm looking for these things called the Dragon Balls. You know what those are?"

"Yeah, I know what they are already. They're 7 magical balls you gotta collect so that… a dragon comes out and fulfills your wish." Ichigo almost bit his tongue that he almost said the dragon's name. He wasn't sure if they knew it or not at this time period but he would like to be safe with that they didn't.

"Well good to know. Hey! I got an idea! Since I can manage to find Dragon Balls, and you seem to be pretty strong for a kid your age, so how about we partner up?"

Ichigo had scowled at this offer. He had a feeling this wasn't going where he liked it was going. "And why in the world would I want to team up with you in the first place?" now he was questioning himself how did Goku ever agree to travel with her again. Actually now that he thought about it he was extremely naive as a kid, so that was probably — wait a minute…

"Come on! I mean, didn't you ever thought about having a wish of your own you wanted to fulfill?"

"No. I find it rather pointless to do something like that unless I would want it for something really important. What would you want it for anyways?"

"It's simple! If we work together, we'll be able to get these things in just a month! And I would get the wish for a perfect boyfriend!"

Ichigo had slwoly registered tne words - no - more so the wish at hand, and when he had comprehended them in his brain, his eyes went as wide as they could and his mouth had hanged down. "You have got to be fucking kidding me…" he bluntly told his words from the shock he had felt. He could somewhat remember that Bulma's wish was never exactly the smartest, but something like this? This was just absolutely stupid in every way that was possible. "Please tell me you're joking… what you're saying is just stupid."

Bulma had seemed insulted about this. "Excuse me?!"

"Thanks for giving me another reason not to go with you! There is no way in bloody hell am I willing to risk my neck just for some wish to be as petty as that!" Ichigo yelled. What was with him now? He was feeling even more nervous, not to mention he felt jumpy as well. It's this body. This body was freaking him out. Not to mention the tail he was having. He didn't like that.

Bulma was starting to get irritated with this kid. She would have to need him in case she would have to run into any danger that she couldn't handle. However she then thought of a desperate attempt to make up his mind. "I think I know what will make you change your mind." she didn't like this but she was running out of options here.

"Huh?"

Bulma then lifted her skirt up as she had shown her pink panties. "Then how about a little trade? You give me the Dragon Ball and I'll give you a peak?"

This is where Ichigo was sweat dropped from the back of his neck, as he wasn't really impressed at all. "You want me to trade my… Dragon Ball by taking a peak inside? What are you, a prostitute? Sorry, but I don't think I'm in the mood to get diseases thank you very much."

"Hey!" Bulma shouted in insult. "I am not that far below! I never even had any sex!"

"Hmmm… you sure? Look, either way I'm not going."

"Well… maybe you could at least have the chance to explore the outside?"

"Huh?"

"Yeah, I mean I don't know who your grandpa was but I'm taking a wild guess that you've lived here your whole life and never really went anywhere did you?"

Ichigo looked down. "Well…" she had to admit she was kinda right on that. His memories as this Karna didn't really show him anything outside the forest. "As far as I'm aware, not exactly…"

"Well this could be a great start for you! I mean wouldn't your grandpa want his young grandson to go explore out the world? You can see the oceans! Travel across deserts! And other great stuff you could explore like the big cities where I'm from!"

Ichigo looked at his hands again and clenched them. To his surprise he saw that they were shaking. When he thought about it she had a good point; the old man that raised him in this did go through the trouble of doing just that. However… 'Maybe she's right. I don't know what's been with me lately… I'm getting a little shaky now. What am I thinking though? If… if I am reincarnated as Goku, then I must be a Saiyan. And one day my own Raditz might come after me — and I-I would die, I wouldn't stand 1/100,000,000 of a chance at beating him. And I just — maybe — just maybe have answers to get.' Ichigo had thought, but for some reason he was sort of starting to feel tired already. "Alright... I guess you're right."

Bulma was pleased to hear this. "That's great! I'm telling you, you won't regret this one bit!" she said.

Ichigo nodded his head as both of them had gotten out of the small house. "Let's get one thing straight here; I didn't join here because of your stupid wish, I'm only here to get some answers I need."

"I thought that you also wanted to explore the world?"

"That as well, but I'm also in need of some… some answers now. It's something personal that I gotta know right now."

Bulma seemed a little confused but she nonetheless shrugged it off. "Eh, suit yourself then." she then pulled out her Dragon Radar and checked to see where the closest one may be at. "Ah man, why did this have to be far…"

"Something wrong?" Ichigo asked.

"Let's just say this device I have allows me to locate other Dragon Balls like the ones we have. And according to this, the nearest one here is about 700 miles to the West."

Ichigo seemed slightly surprised by this. "That far? Are you kidding me?! How are we getting there?!"

"Geez... calm down, kid. Are you always this annoyed or what?" Bulma sighed as she pulled out a capsule from her metal pocket she stored up. "Since you destroyed my car, I'll have to go with something else. And luckily I was prepared in case something like that happened. So I guess we're using this for a while…" she pressed the button on top and threw it a distance away before it popped up smoke and it showed a motorcycle. "Well this should be good enough." she got to the motorcycle and sat on it. "Hop in."

"Yeah, yeah, I don't need you to tell me what to do." Ichigo grunted as sat behind her and held her hips. This felt so weird, even though he had the body of a child again - a much more stronger one at that - he still had the mentality of a teenager.

"Well, aren't you the smart one now? Anyway, let's go!" Bulma had then started driving the motorcycle at dashing speeds.

"Hey! What the hell?! Don't you think you should slow down?!"

"Relax! I know what I'm doing here!"

"You better damn know it!"

"Feeling a little scared?!"

"As if!"

"Alright, I think that should be about enough here. Let's just stay here for the night at least." Bulma had stopped riding the motorcycle, as she had been driving in the middle of the road for some time now. She and Ichigo had gotten off before she pulled out the metal pocket again and went to pick up a rather large looking capsule. She then threw it at another distance away before it poofed a Capsule house.

"Well, I guess staying here doesn't seem so bad… so is there any shower here?" Ichigo asked as he got off the motorcycle as well.

"Yeah there should be one here. You should be able to find it on your own." Bulma answered.

"Right… got it then."

Soon after this, Ichigo had gotten inside the capsule house and had quickly managed to find the bathroom for this place. He had closed the door and took off his clothes before he had stepped in the bath and had started taking a shower. And despite the warmness he had felt from the tub he was in, Ichigo's body had felt cold on the inside as his mind still wasn't able to fully adapt to the situation he was in right now. Only thing seen from the bath was Ichigo's half covered face in it as a frown was shown on him.

'I just still can't believe all of this. Being in a world you've known as an entertainment show is just one thing to be in. That's not really the worst part, the worst part is this absurd body I'm in. This looks and feels like my own but at the same time it just really doesn't. What body is this?' Ichigo had looked at his left hand again. 'Let's check... I do remember that Goku was shorter than this in the show, and I'm clearly taller than that right now. And if I'm correct then I must be 12 years old in this time period now. Ok so my body is 12 like it was in my previous life… a little weird. I mean, since I'm supposed to be a Saiyan, shouldn't I look younger or something than this? There's also my new hair, which is much longer than what I originally has. And then there's this tail…'

Ichigo turned his head to look at the brown furry tail he had on him, something he had felt noticed. The feeling part of it had him felt unnerved by this. The tail completely felt like it was another limb he had on his body. Like a third arm or a leg, but the one that he had no idea how to control or move it right. It also did not help that the tail somehow reminded him of one of the Hollowfied transformations he has went through (the one that looked like more like a lizard). And also that he couldn't control as well. Actually he never really could control any of his forms. Sure that was that one form he used again Yhwach, but even then that form was imperfected to use.

Ichigo was starting to feel more nervous when he had realized that since he has been reincarnated, there was the possibility of him being the only one here… with no-one he knew… all by himself. He was now hoping he was wrong and there may be some chance someone was with him. 'Maybe I could… hey… Old Man? Are you here with me?'

He waited to get some reply. Literally about anything. But instead all he got was the long silent answer of hearing nothing but the water running on him.

'Zangetsu? Are you here as well?'

No reply as well. He couldn't feel anything from the spirits he had inside.

The shaking Ichigo had felt before had started to increase as some small panic was starting to settle in him. Out of some last desperate attempt he tried to sense anything that was familiar to him… except he had sensed nothing. Not a single trace.

The childish Ichigo had then lowered down and curved himself to a ball. "Is anybody here…?" he asked only himself in a frightened time.

...He was starting to consider if it would have been better if he didn't get his memories back.

Hey guys! Sorry this took a while to finish, but here it is! The new chapter of: Shine of a New Miracle: Flames of a Rising Sun Storm, has arrived! Since I have multiple other stories to do here, this might take time to release chapter per chapter, like maybe about a month or less every time till I finish up one of the stories I'm working on.

So what exactly do you think of this story so far? I know I only just started but I'm genuinely curious as to what you think of this.

And another thing to know is should I call the reincarnated Ichigo well... Ichigo or should I call him Karna in the 3rd perspective story I write with? I kinda went with Ichigo in this since it felt more accurate now that his memories are back. But also let you know that the meaning of the name Karna would become pretty important later on… kind of.

So should I go with Ichigo or Karna? I also wanna know what you think goes with best.
