Chapter 1

”Too bad, Saiga,” said Senzui as he snatched the detonator

Furinji Saiga and Senzui had fought over for the detonation button of the nuclear missile Yami had created. Niijima had managed to hack into the system and shut down the launch sequence, but Yami always had a backup plan.

”To be honest, if I were to detonate it here, it'll definitely mess up the targeting system. Not to mention it might just blow up right here and now,” chuckled Senzui, ”But, well I'll be dead either ways.”

The detonator had dropped right under the missile, where they fought to pick it up. If Senzui pressed it right now, then he would die without any time to escape. But to realize Yami's goal, the Eternal Setting Sun, he would proceed forward even at the cost of his own life.

”Tell me, Senzui,” spat Saiga as he tried to distract Senzui, ”How is it a man so ruthless that you kill your own comrades, let Miu go as a baby?”

Seeing Senzui pause for a second, Saiga rushed forward to try to grab it, but Senzui merely smiled and pressed the button. Seeing as he couldn't do anything, Saiga jumped away as fast as he could, barely dodging the flames. As the missile started to blast off, Senzui gave off one last statement. That he couldn't hurt the face of the two people he loved.

At the battlegrounds, they all heard the missile start its launch. Kushinada laughed, saying it was their victory. As Kenichi and the others saw it start to lift off, they heard the computers starting to beep.

”Error. Error. Missile detonation sequence unstable. Detonation imiment.”

”OH SHIT!” shouted Niijima, ”We're gonna die!”

”Kenichi!” shouted Miu.

”Miu!” shouted Kenichi in reply, knowing this would be their last moments. They dropped the honorifics to address each other as lovers before the inevitable would happen.

”Noo! I have too much to live for!” cried Niijima. Shigure quickly threw Niijima to where Miu and Kenichi were, knowing it was too late to do anything. The missile suddenly exploded in front of them.

Everything suddenly seemed to slow down for all of them. Shigure stood in front of the three teenagers, completely nude, knowing it was hopeless but hoped to at least buy them even a second of time to live so Miu and Kenichi could have their moment. Saiga seemingly appeared next to her, acting as a human shield too. Lastly, the elder Furinji, Furinji Hayato, appeared before them all to block it. He knew, even with all his ”super” human powers, there was nothing he could do except use his body as a shield to give his granddaughter a bit more time. He couldn't toss them to safety, and Niijima would most likely die from the high Gs, and Kenichi was too injured. If the missile hadn't prem_a_t_u_r_ely detonated, then he had confidence he could've stopped it easily. He himself could've escaped, but it wasn't worth living if all his friends and granddaughter died.

”Looks like we'll be seeing our family,” sighed Hayato as the flames approached them.

”Sorry about this, dad,” apologized Saiga, ”I might not go to the same place as you guys.”

”It's okay, son,” smiled Hayato.

”Noo. Niijima secret technique! Alien Barrier!”

With all his willpower and special 'powers', Niijima managed to erect a barrier around himself, Miu, and Kenichi. He had used this once while the elder Furinji had been flaunting his ki back in the Desperate Fight of Disciples to protect himself.

The explosion reached the three masters, where they were forced to see their bodies incinerated before their own eyes. The explosion kept going, cruelly burning and killing anyone within range. The group of disciples fighting at the forests were killed before they could react. The masters themselves decided to allow the flames to consume them, as they had failed and couldn't escape.

”It's not what I thought it would be, but this works,” smiled Kushinada as the flames enveloped her too.

The allied soldiers of Ryozanpaku could do nothing but helplessly let the explosion and fire wash over them, incinerating them all.

”How is this working!?” shouted Kenichi as he saw the barrier somehow hold.

”Hehehe, it's the Niijima ultimate technique,” grinned Niijima, although he wasn't quite sure how he was doing such a thing. He also wasn't sure if the barrier protected them from the radiation of the missile. Unfortunately, he saw his barrier cracking, and knew it was over.

”Kenichi...”

”Miu...”

Knowing they had but mere moments, they came together for a passionate kiss on the lips before the end.

Suddenly, a wormhole appeared at where the crack of Niijima's barrier was, and s_u_c_k_e_d all three teenagers into it.

”WHAT IS HAPPENING!” shouted Kenichi as they were whirling around space. Everything was pitch dark, lightning streaked all around them. A fierce wind was blowing across all of them.

”I DON'T KNOW?! I THINK THE SHIELD MET WITH FIRE AND RADIATION CAUSED A WORMHOLE!” theorized Niijima.

”HOW DOES THAT EVEN WORK!” cried out Kenichi.

”HOLD HANDS AND STICK TOGETHER!” shouted Miu as she managed to grab Kenichi's hand before throwing a hook to Niijima, pulling him close.

”Miu, your clothes!” shouted Kenichi, just noticing something wrong. He was stark n_a_k_e_d as they were whirling through this space. Niijima was also n_a_k_e_d, as was Miu, revealing her b_r_e_a_s_ts and perky pink n_i_p_p_l_es.

”Kyaa! Don't look!” screamed Miu in embarrassment, but she didn't let go. It was too important that they stick together. Though she was thankful due to all this spinning, they couldn't see other private parts. But she did get a good glance at Kenichi's manhood and blushed.

As they were all spinning in the space full of darkness, winds, and lighting, they felt something forcing them apart. They tried as hard as they could to keep their hands linked, but it was useless. They could feel like a force of nature was pulling them all apart.

”Kenichi!” cried Miu one last time.

”Miu! I promise I'll find you. I'll always be with you! I... love you! I'm sorry I wasn't strong enough to protect you. I'll always love you!” shouted Kenichi.

”I know you will! I'll find you, too! I'll always love you!” smiled Miu before Kenichi and Niijima were forced to let her go. She disappeared into a flash of light.

”Niijima, hold on!” shouted Kenichi as he felt Niijima's grip starting to fail.

”I still have so much to do!” wailed Niijima, ”But it looks like our time is up! I'll be sure to find you guys somehow! You're vital to part of my path for my ambitions!”

With that last statement, Niijima and Kenichi separated before disappearing in a flash of light, leaving Kenichi alone.

”Everyone...,” cried Kenichi, ”I'm sorry. I don't want to be alone.”

Then, there was a flash of light as Kenichi's body disappeared from the void.

”Everyone!”

Kenichi suddenly sat up on his bed, completely soaked with sweat. He blinked as he tried to figure out what was going on. His body felt weak, his legs didn't reach the edge of his sheets. He blinked as he looked down at his hands to find out they were smooth. Kenichi tossed the blanket aside to see his body that his masters took such painstakingly careful to build his body full of pink muscles... gone. He noticed outside his window, it was dark, signifying it was night time right now. He looked around and noticed that he wasn't in his futon back in Ryozanpaku, but rather his bed back at home. And there weren't as many manual books around him. Kenichi touched his face, pinching to see if this was real. It was.

”What the hell is going on!?” shouted Kenichi, noticing his voice also much higher.

”Son, what's wrong! Is it a monster? I have Maximillian with me!”

Kenichi's father, Mototsuga Shirihama, burst through the door, pointing his shotgun throughout the room, looking for the threat. He was a tall middle-aged man with short dark blue hair and a fairly lean figure.

”Dear, don't wave your shotgun like that!”

Kenichi's mother, Saori Shirihama, entered the room and smacked her husband on the head with a newspaper. She was a fairly tall and attractive woman with straight brown hair, fair skinned, curvaceous figure and sizable bust. Her hair was styled the way Kenichi always saw her. She was five years younger than her husband, but she still loved him very much. Even at her age, she looked younger than she appeared.

”Onii-chan, are you alright?”

Honoka Shirahama, Kenichi's little sister, appeared, rubbing her eyes as she had been woken up by Kenichi's shout. She had inherited her mother's hair, as did Kenichi, and could be counted as very cute for her age.

Kenichi noticed that they all seemed younger than he last remembered them all. Especially Honaka.

”Son? Are you all right?”

Kenichi blinked as he got out of his trance to see his father and mother looking at him with concern.

”Just a nightmare,” replied Kenichi, shaking his head before and tried to grab his cellphone that he usually put beside him.

It wasn't there.

”Umm, dad, weird question, but what's the date today?”

”Why son, it's September 22, 1992. What a funny question.”

Kenichi blinked a few times before fainting back onto his bed. As his sight blacked out, inside his mind, he screamed, 'WHAT'S GOING ON!?'

”Kenichi, it's time to wake up. It's time for school”

Kenichi slowly opened his eyes to see his mother shaking him awake. He got up and ran towards the bathroom and faced the mirror. What he imagined wasn't a lie. He was actually seven years old again.

'Does that mean everything that happened before was just a dream?' thought Kenichi. It certainly was out of this world to have such martial artists that could break down steel doors with their fists. As he quickly brushed his teeth and got ready for school, he saw the Yin-Yang pin that he always kept.

”No! I refuse to believe that was all just a dream. I don't know when or how, but I will find you again, Miu,” declared Kenichi before heading off to elementary school.

Of course, all the subjects were somewhat easy for him, which reinforced the idea that he truly had traveled back in time somehow. As he was a second grader, he allowed his mind to wander for a bit to plan out what to do.

”Definitely get into shape,” mused Kenichi, ”Even with the masters' help of reconstructing my body, they had to deal with a weak body in the first place. Maybe if I had a better base to work with, then I could get stronger and protect Miu, instead of always being protected. But how to make it so I don't screw up? Maybe a jog every day will help out. Then-”

”Shirihama!” shouted the teacher, snapping Kenichi out of his thoughts, ”I appreciate if you didn't daydream! You're not doing that well in math that you can just daydream! As punishment, come up and solve this problem!”

Kenichi took a look at the problem, which was 60-34+21*8. He went up to the blackboard, calculating it in his head, and quickly wrote out the answer 194.

”Hmph. Lucky guess. Show your work,” demanded the teacher, unable to believe Kenichi knew the answer. When Kenichi showed his work properly, the teacher paused for a second to stare at Kenichi.

”Correct... I guess you've been studying.”

Kenichi sighed and went back down to his paper, trying to plan out how he would go at this. Classes went by fast, and everything was basically review for Kenichi.

”Perhaps I'll do better in school, too,” said Kenichi as he leaned back on his chair during lunch, ”But in the end, I still need to head to Koryo High School, even if I get accepted to a better one. To meet up with Miu and the others... and unfortunately, also Haruo Niijima. My best/horrible friend. I need to head over to Ryozanpaku as soon as possible!”

When the school ended, Kenichi managed to beg his mother to take him to Ryozanpaku.

”Kenichi, honey, why do you need to go to this place?” asked Saori as he held his hands, along with Honoka.

”It's important,” said Kenichi as he led her, almost running towards it. He wanted to see them all again. When they turned the corner, though, his heart fell. For there was no Ryozanpaku. It was just an empty patch of land.

”Kenichi? Why did you bring me here?” asked Saori.

”Sorry mom,” said Kenichi with a fake grin, ”I guess I took the wrong turn.”

That night, Kenichi cried into his bed, hoping that all those memories he had weren't fake. After he finished crying, he soon made his resolve to train his body for the upcoming future.

”I swear, I'll get stronger,” declared Kenichi as he looked out to the stars, ”I'll be able to protect you, Miu! I will make my body stronger before I join Ryozanpaku again. I know it isn't fake. I just know you're out there, Miu.”

Soon, the months passed as Kenichi trained in his room in secret. He found out that ever since he learned Ki no Shouka, or rather 'Holding' of Ki, back when he fought against Kajima, he still retained on how to use it, though his Ki was very weak, as he was still in his childish weak body. All his mental functions and muscle memory were still there, just his body was unable to support it.

”Have to be careful while trying to master my Ki,” grunted Kenichi as he began his push-ups. In crafting class at his elementary school, he was able to make some makeshift weights for himself. ”If a stray Martial Arts master, or even Yami, find a kid that can utilize Ki that supposedly only Grand Masters are supposed to be able to, they might just kidnap me and force them to be their disciple. Have to find a private place soon.”

Soon enough, Kenichi was entering the third grade with distinct honors in his grades. His parents so proud of him that they increased his allowance, allowing him to buy some more exercise equipment. Not to mention, he seemed to be a bit more popular in school now. His father had gone full-out out lecture on how proud he was of him, and how his future seemed bright. It was only thanks to his mother that the lecture was cut short. However, he kept quiet to himself and tried his best not to draw attention. As he was watering the plants one day, he heard about a new student transferring in.

”Did you hear? The new student is weird.”

”Yea, he has pointy ears and some weird looking antenna on his head.”

”He looks like an alien!”

Kenichi paused at this. Could it be Niijima? But that couldn't be! He didn't meet him until middle school! Suddenly, he saw a shadow looming over him. Reacting quickly, Kenichi jumped away just in time to hear a foot stomp, followed by the shadow pounding his c_h_e_s_t with his left hand. He then brought his left hand forward, looping once in the air before putting his hand forward.

”Shinpaku!”

Silence fell in between the two boys, along with small choju giga animals of a frog, monkey, and bunny dragging dots behind them. Kenichi could slowly look up to see an 8-year-old Niijima posing in the Shinpaku salute that he had made up when they were still 17.

”Niijima?” asked Kenichi in disbelief.

”Yo, Kenichi,” grinned Niijima before cackling, ”Ready to join the Shinpaku group and bring it to new heights?”

Kenichi instinctively punched him in the stomach, causing Niijima to groan in pain.
