"Without darkness, you can't have light. Without light, you can't have darkness…' Was etched a tree deep in a forest. Swiftly a girl ran from those words, her steps like a pin drop. Her chains that bound her to this place were released, she was finally free. Her world suddenly burned to ashes, lead astray by the world, she vanished into the night, pleading a small "Save me…"
Slowly a boy sat up wiping off the sweat form his forehead. 'What do these dreams mean?' he wondered. 'Is this what they mean by destiny?' "Destiny is unstoppable…" came the whisper of a previous life.

"It's about time we met, Shohei." Whispered the girl from the boy's dream, except she wasn't a girl anymore. She looks 15, as does the boy. She has red hair and crimson colored eyes, adorning baggy black pants tucked into her combat boots. She wore a black tank top with a white wrap around the stomach, and fishnets underneath. Her accessories were upper arm black leather bands, gloves that came up the her elbows, and a color with spells along it.
"Soon…" whispered the trench coat clad figure beside her.
"But I want to see him now." She grumbled.
"Settle, Mizuki, you and him will meet soon." He scolded, suppressing a smirk.
Slumping her shoulders, Mizuki replied, "Fine, Dark, I'll be good." Taking one last peek through Shohei's window, she jumped off the balcony and landed nimbly in the grass. Motioning for Dark, they both disappeared as if never there. "It's time to shatter the eternally-unchanging nights…"

"…Morning already?" groaned Shohei stretching.
"It's time to shatter the eternally-unchanging nights…"
"Huh?" suddenly wide awake, Shohei darted to the balcony doors where the whisper came from. "What? Are these some kind of hints? Am I supposed to know what these mean?!" he exclaimed at the open window.
"Don't turn your back on it now… shatter the nights that never change, no matter what…"
"At least it's Saturday, I need to think this over." Thought Shohei walking away

Aimlessly, Mizuki and Dark walked around the mall. They were supposed to be getting Mizuki some regular clothes but they hadn't found anything worth getting yet.
"Hey, Dark, I'm going to go che--" BAM! Stumbling backwards, only to be caught by Dark. Mizuki rubbed her forehead. "Oww!" she muttered wincing, she looked up to see who had ran into her.
"Oh crap! I just knocked someone over!' Shohei shouted mentally. "Uh… I-I'm sorry miss!" he stuttered.
"It's alright…" mumbled the girl in black.
"Are you okay?" Shohei questioned looking at the strange girl, and the scary guy glaring at him from behind her. 'Does she think she's some kind of ninja? What about the guy behind her? What's with the trench coat and dark looks? Is he gonna be me up and steal my shoes?!' thought Shohei.
"I'm fine." She replied.
"So, uh, what's your name?" he asked, his cheeks pink from embarrassment.
"Mizuki, Mizuki Ishikawa." Mizuki replied with a smirk.
'Mizuki!? Is this my Mizuki!?' unwanted memories came flashing at Shohei, but he did his best to keep his composure. "Well, I'm Shohei Sato, it was nice to meet you Mizuki."
"Likewise. C'mon Dark, I saw a store I'd like to see over there." Slowly Mizuki and Dark walked away, a smirk plastered on her face. She could sense Shohei's swirling emotions. "I walk alone on a road that always home..." Ignoring Shohei's startled cry, they continued walking.

"Hey Dark, I'm going for a different look, could you get those glasses " asked Mizuki, holding up some different clothing.
"Mizuki? Are you sure you want to go through with this?" asked Dark picking up the glasses Mizuki requested.
"Thank you, Dark." Mizuki said, then a cold, determined look took over her features, "Revenge will take place soon, then we can return home."
Sighing, Dark buttoned up his trench coat and grumbled, "Why did I have to get a master like you?"
"Well, Dark, if you weren't assigned to me, you wouldn't have any freedom."
"True, do you have all of your purchases?"
Grabbing Dark's hand, Mizuki dragged him off to the register.
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
'Why?! Why is she back?! Is Mizuki still angry with me? It was 6 years ago…' thought Shohei, his head hung low. He had been taking a long walk for about an hour now, and now he's finally returning home.
"Welcome, Master Sato." Said a servant as Shohei walked into the door. Breaking out of his trance he quickly replied, "Oh, Hello Taki, is dinner ready yet?"
"Almost, Master, but you have a visitor waiting for you in your room." Reported Taki, acting very business-like.
Feeling nervous, Shohei started his way up the stairs to his room. He was unsure of who the visitor was, and that made him more uneasy. Cautiously, he opened his door to be greeted with—
"HEY SHOHEI!!" shouted a strange lady.
Fumbling for the door handle, Shohei slammed the door. "Haruka! What are you doing here?!" he demanded.
"I'm your guardian, can't I come and see you every once in a while?" asked Haruka. She had long blonde hair, which was pulled back in a tight ponytail. She wore a pink tank top, and baggy black pants. She had a pink crystal hanging around her neck, and wore a lot of makeup.
Sighing, Shohei sat down on his bed next to her and stated, "But you never come just to talk. What's going on?"
"Fine. I'll cut right to the chase. There's another angel and their guardian around. They've been watching you."
Startled, Shohei demanded, "Wha! Seriously?! Who is it?!"
"Well, all I know is, it's a fire angel. She has a vampire guardian named Dark." Stated Haruka.
'Dark… where have I heard that name before?' "C'mon Dark…" echoed in his head. 'Mizuki?! It Couldn't be…' "Do you by any chance know them?" asked Shohei.
Pouting, Haruka replied, "I know Dark, he's a big meanie! He left me for that stupid girl! I loved him, but he only loved her!—"
Cutting Haruka off, Shohei growled, "Sorry to interrupt your sob story, but I need profiles, descriptions!"
"Geez… well, Dark has messy black hair, grey eyes, normally wears a trench coat in the human world. When you take off the disguise, he has black wings, pointed ears, and long and sharp fangs. They're normally dulled a little in his disguise."
"What about the angel?" asked Shohei.
"Hmm… I don't know much about her, but she has red hair, crimson eyes, and if you take her disguise off, she has red and black wings."
Thinking of the people he met earlier, Shohei confirmed they were Dark and Mizuki.
