- CHAPTER ONE -

A relatively normal life. Consisting of a dead-end job, and mundane days that seemed to blend into the next.

The normal life of one Y/N L/N consisted of these things. He was slowly reaching his mid-thirties, and had nothing to show for it.

The man, was currently walking home from his job. His tired expression betraying his fast pace of speed. His tired eyes didn't notice the stoplight was green as he stepped in the road.

Unfortunately, it seemed the driver of a truck didn't notice Y/N either. As the large vehicle slammed into the unsuspecting Y/N, causing him to roll under the tires and meet an unceremonious end.

- Unknown, Y/N POV -

I'm dead.

There's nothing.

Only dark shadows, hiding behind even darker shadows. The shadows occasionally move, looking as though they are laughing at my misfortune. Or perhaps it's my mind playing tricks on me.

Suddenly, I'm overwhelmed. Blindings lights, loud noises, and the feeling of cold air. My skin so sensitive I feel as though I'm caught in a snow storm without any clothes.

My eyes open, and I find myself staring at a wooden ceiling. Candles lit up the room allowing me to see the room.

???: "It's a boy!"

'What?'

An older man stared down at me, before handing me over to a young woman with cyan colored hair and tan skin. A gentle but tired smile on her face and sweat dripping from her forehead.

'You've gotta be shitting me?'

The woman smiled down at me, holding my small form in her arms.

???: "What would you like to name him?

The Doctor, I presume asked my new mother. She looked down at me once again, before looking at the doctor.

Mother?: "Hajime. His name is Hajime Kashimo."

'I've been reborn!?'

Like a flash of lightning four years went by in the blink of an eye. And I was now four years old, capable of walking and speaking.

Currently, I sat on the floor. Wearing a white shirt and black pants which were a bit too big for my current size.

My body however, for the past few days had felt strange. As though I was going through puberty, but I'm only four!

Mother: "Hajime!"

The sudden yell of my mother caused me to jump, and a strange occurrence to happen, a blue and black flame covered my fist, a hint of yellow lightning flowing inside the flame. Despite this burning flame, I felt no pain, in fact it felt, rejuvenating.

Mother: "Hajime, what happened?"

"I..."

I paused, trying to find the words I wanted to use. The power was strange a new sensation to a body I was beginning to get used to.

Ichigo: "Oh, it's magic!"

Magic? This world has magic?

Ichigo: "Wow, only four years old and you've already used magic! You're so strong Hajime!"

My mother picked me up, causing the flame to vanish as she held me in the air.

Ichigo: "Amazing my baby boy is so strong already!"

Maybe this new life won't be so bad after all.
