Okay before anyone kills me, I'd like to say that I think my original idea for this story was lacking. I didn't really like it and I'm sorry if there were some people out there who did enjoy it but as the writer I didn't want my work to suffer because I wasn't 'feeling' it.

So I can up with this while I was in the shower! (I listen to Vocaloids on my iPod while I shower okay?...DON'T JUDGE ME!) I absolutely adore the song Secret: Black Vow which is performed by the Kagamine twins. The PV made me cry not gonna lie (hehe rhyming ^w^) and I thought it's a good story but the only thing wrong with it is it's not MikuXKaito (It was like RinxMiku…then LenxMiku and then Kaito kinda kills her…). Then I thought some more and was like, 'AHAH!' I can make it a MikuXKaito story and it can be a bit more serious in comparison to my finished story (Another Chance [Naruto]). So I would probably watch the PV first and then start to read this or else it won't make any sense.


Chapter I

The Verdict

"Kaito Shion, please step forward."

A man, appearing to be in his early twenties, steps forward. His neat, tidy, blue hair and matching, sharp, to-the-point eyes are presented before the court.

The Heavenly Court consists of the elder angels. They were all clad in gold robes in comparison to regular angels who wore only white. Their ancient eyes were fixed on him as he stood in front of them; disappointment carved upon their faces.

"Kaito Shion, are you aware you violated one of the most sacred laws of the Heavenly Court?" The elder on the far right asked him.

Kaito nodded. "I am aware…"

"She may have been involved in a forbidden love but that didn't give you the right to kill that human that Rin was involved with. What could have motivated you to kill an innocent human?"Another elder questioned.

He suddenly felt his blood boil. Innocent! That filthy human was far from it! The woman in black had stolen his one and only love away from him and made his beloved Rin cut away her precious wings. Rin had been reincarnated into a human male to stay with that damn woman! She had soiled Rin's pure existence!

He squeezed his fists shut and stayed silent as he stared at the ground. Kaito may be hotheaded at times but he definitely wasn't stupid. He didn't need to dig himself into a bigger hole because he was in enough trouble as it was.

Suddenly Meiko burst into the room. Meiko was one of the higher ranked angels and she was assigned to Kaito's case. Kaito had to give her credit, considering they were best friends. She gave Kaito a sorry glance as she strode by him. "Um, there's been an update in the case. The woman of lacquer black is now alive. Rin exchanged her life for hers at the last moment."

Kaito suddenly looked up from his feet. "Then Rin can be reincarnated again, right?" He asked hopefully. "And I can be forgiven since the human is now alive?"

The elders exchanged looks then bowed their heads regretfully.

"Sadly, Rin was still so young and in training…"

"In that time she was still alive, she couldn't meet the criteria as that of a full-fledged angel…"

"It's an absolute miracle she was even able to rejuvenate once, considering her inexperience and breaking a sacred rule herself."

"As for you being forgiven, if it weren't for Rin the human would still be dead. Murder is murder Mr. Shion."

Kaito's face suddenly fell. "I see…"

"Now back to your matter," the elder said, getting back on track, "Are you ready accept your punishment?"

He nodded. Kaito just didn't care anymore. Without Rin, he was nothing.

"You will no longer be an angel. You'll be kicked out of the Heavenly Court and sent to the human world to live among them. What you do there is up to you. We cannot control what you do or don't do but when you die as a human your actions will be judged accordingly in the afterlife." The main elder strikes his gavel. "Court adjourned, now send someone to clip his wings and send him off safely."

Tears were trailing down Meiko's cheeks as two sentry angels came in to grab each of his arms. Kaito looked at her blankly and didn't even try to struggle when they dragged him away.


Miku sat at the forest's edge, setting a bouquet of flowers at the base of one of the trees.

"Happy Anniversary darling," the lady clothed in black whispers as tears begin to pool in her eyes. This wasn't exactly the place they had met; they met in one of the streets in town but she found this place more tranquil. She brings a gloved hand to her eyes and wipes at the wetness on her cheeks. "Can you believe it's been five years?"

"Ms. Hatsune! Ms. Hatsune!" A flustered voice calls from behind her.

She turns to look at her new servant girl and gives a shaky laugh. "Ah, Luka, what is it?"

"Your mother is looking for you…" Luka suddenly notices the position Miku is in and gasps. "M-milady! Y-your dress will get dirty!"

Miku get up and brushes herself off. "It really doesn't matter. Shall we go?"

Luka fumbles around trying to pop open the parasol she had carried with her. She catches up with Miku and shields her from the sun. "It's quiet hot today, milady, perhaps you should wear a lighter color?"

Miku comes to a halt. Luka stops too and suddenly becomes horrified. Did she say something wrong? Was she going to be fired or scolded? She had never really been good with people and she really needed this job. Luka squeezes her eyes shut, ready to face the music.

"I-I didn't always wear black." Luka eyes flap open. Miku smiles sadly. "I went through a phase where all I did wear was black though." She laughs. "Mother would get so upset with me too." Miku suddenly looks down to the ring on her finger.

Luka had noticed that her master was always fond of that ring. She never took it off and she was always looking at it with a nostalgic smile. "Is that an important ring?" Luka asked, genuinely curious.

"Yes…yes it is." Miku's eyes suddenly looked far away. "A very important person gave this to me."

Luka just leaves it at that. Her master was always one who kept to herself and Luka respected that. Out of her many jobs, she enjoyed this one the most because her current master was one of the kindest people you could ever meet.

"I've been wearing black ever since that person died…"

Luka opens her mouth to speak but a sudden crash in the forest behind them makes her jump. She looks to Miku. "Goodness! Do you think a tree could have fallen over or…" her voice trails off. Her master looks at the forest with dream-like eyes then she hikes up the skirts of her dress and runs back to the forest.

"M-milady! Please wait for me!" She throws the parasol aside and races after her.


"Does it hurt?" Meiko asks as she helps support Kaito to the edge of the cloud.

He just grunts in response. The pain in his back doesn't really affect him. "Meiko, I think I'll just kill myself as soon as I hit the human world that way I can get to Hell quicker."

Meiko suddenly gasps and she breaks into sobs. "Kaito! Please don't say that! If you forgive and forget you'll be forgiven."

Kaito gives an annoyed sigh. "I don't want to forgive and forget! I'd rather die than show remorse for what I did!"

"Kaito, please," Meiko pleads quietly as her tears continue.

He sighs again. Maybe he could be a bit more thoughtful towards her feelings. This would be the last time they'd see each other. Kaito suddenly hugs her. "I'm sorry okay."

She squeezes him harder. "Promise me you won't kill yourself. I want you to live a happy life. It's a new start, don't waste it please."

"I'll try not to." Kaito can't help the tears that slip from his eyes too.

She pulls away from his grasp and gives him small bottle of elixir. Meiko puts it in his hand and closes his fingers tightly around it. Her voice drops down to a whisper. "I shouldn't be giving you this but whenever you want to talk to me just put a drop of this on a reflexive surface and we can talk for a bit. That's all I have so try not to use all of it."

Kaito drops the bottle into one of his pockets. "I'll use it well." He balances himself at the edge of the cloud and readies himself. Kaito looks at Meiko and nods.

Meiko nods back as she takes a deep breath. "Call me as soon as you get there."

With that she pushed him forward and Kaito fell from Heaven to the world below.


Miku searched desperately throughout the forest.

It was the same thing that happened before. When she first met Rin the same golden light had appeared followed by a loud crash.

Could it be her?

She ran searching for white. Her foot caught onto a root and she went tumbling down an embankment.

Miku groaned in pain as she pushed herself up from the ground. Her eyes fluttered open and her eyes widened. She was face to face with a sleeping man dressed in white robes.

Beautiful is what came to mind when she looked over his features. He had silky hair that was falling around his eyes and his lashes were long crescents against his cheeks.

Is he an angel? Miku asked herself as she looked to his sides.

No wings.

Then what is he?

"Ms. Hatsune!" Luka's voice echoes.

"I'm down here!" Miku calls back. She looks back to the man who sleeps soundlessly. "Um, excuse me sir, are you awake?"

He stirs in his sleep. "Rin," he mumbles.

Her eyes widen. He knows about Rin…

Miku puts a hand to his forehead and frowns. He had a fever. She begins to drape his arm around her shoulder to haul him up when Luka finally joins her.

"Who's that, milady?"

"Luka, help me get him back to the house. I have some questions to ask him and I think he may be ill."

They make it out of the forest and Miku can't help but stare at the man between them.

Just who is this man?...
