A/N: This is my first fanfic now rewritten in the past tense.

In a place far, far up in the sky, Mitsuki sighed as she waved her hand slowly back and forth in the clear water of her pond, sending ripples in the water.

"Why did I have to be the daughter of the Goddess of Light and the Emperor of Darkness?"

The little princess of 13 rolled onto her back, letting her bare feet slip into the translucent water. She started to hum a sad song with her beautiful voice. I guess fate isn't as cruel as I thought…at least I still have my voice.

Mitsuki was at the age where she should be carefree and have fun, but yet, she wasn't happy at all. From the moment of her birth, she has been destined to make the toughest decision of all time. This has never happened before: for the first time in the history of the higher existence, had the Goddess of Light and the Emperor of Darkness fallen in love.

Aoi Koga, aka Dark Lord is in charge of the underworld including all the Shinigamis. Even though he is titled the Dark Lord and is suppose to be evil and heartless, Aoi was quite the opposite of that. Although he was the heir to the throne, he dreaded his job and position and still does. Later, he met Hazuki, the Goddess of Light, and fell in love with her at first sight. Hazuki was a beautiful goddess and is in charge of all the angels in heaven. After he and Hazuki had their first born named Mitsuki, Aoi suddenly made a decision to leave both Mitsuki and his wife.


12 years ago…

Hazuki pulled Aoi aside one day to talk. She knew that her husband was still faithful to her and that he had to have an explanation for what he was doing. "Why are you doing this to us?" Hazuki cried with the still infant Mitsuki in her arms, "Why are you leaving Mitsuki and me? She needs a father. Think of the child!"

"It saddens me to leave the ones I treasure most; but it has to be done," Aoi replied solemnly. "Believe me, this is a hardest decision in my life but it is for the best. Do you want our dear Mitsuki to be like me, forever miserable in the underworld, sending minions to collect souls?"

Hazuki took a look at the sleeping Mitsuki and sighed and after a moment of silence, she said, "Even though you have a point, but you forgot one important detail." Aoi looked up in surprise as Hazuki smiled and continued, "She isn't only the heiress to the underworld, but also to the heavens. We should let Mitsuki decide what SHE wants when she is of age. Who ever said that the heiress had to follow in her father's footsteps?."

And with that, Aoi stayed with his wife and daughter.


Twelve years passed quickly and one day, Aoi watches his precious daughter from the window of the grand mansion in the Heavens, where the family currently dwells. By staying up in the heavens instead of the underworld, Aoi hoped that Mitsuki would be happy and choose the path to be the next Goddess of Light. Ever since Mitsuki was young, she had an odd fascination with death. It must be fate.

Everyone in the Heavens was happy and without worries. Crime wasn't an issue up there so children can play happily on the sidewalks, not afraid that they will be harmed in any way.

There was only one person unhappy, and that is, you guessed it, Mitsuki. Because she was a princess, Mitsuki wasn't allowed to play with the commoners. But even so, no one would play with her anyway because everyone knows that Mitsuki was the daughter of the Dark Lord. Most people already knew that Aoi was a great father and was very nice to the city folks; but many were still dubious so Mitsuki never had any real friends. Occasionally white bunnies and unicorns would play with her but it wasn't the same…

Aoi became very worried and motioned his wife to come over and talk.

"What is it Aoi? What's wrong?"

"I'm afraid Mitsuki is really lonely and unhappy here Hazuki. She will be 16 in a little over two and a half years. We need to do something fast."

"What do you reckon we do Aoi?" Hazuki questioned.

Aoi pondered for awhile while walking in circles. Suddenly an idea sparked up and he said excitedly, "Well why don't we let her go down to Earth and see if she likes the humans which she will someday rule over. There may be a slight chance that she will grow fond of them and decide to become a Goddess of Light. It is better than letting her stay here where she will be unhappy for sure."

"I believe you are right," Hazuki glanced at Mitsuki sadly, "We have to let her go…it will be for the best."

"Alright now that this is settled," Aoi clapped his hand twice and two servants dressed in white with large wings came to his side, "We need to arrange for her a place to stay."

"Yes, your highness?" they asked humbly and gave a bow.

"Please send me Fuzuki and tell her it is urgent." Aoi said. "Also call the princess back in. I would like a word with her."


"Huh? Father likes to speak with me you say?" Mitsuki was truly puzzled. I wonder what he wants to talk about…


Back inside the grand mansion, Mitsuki started fidgeting on a red leather couch that had bass bolts on the side. She also subconsciously fiddled with the brass bolts and King Aoi smiled when he saw his daughter's nervousness.

Not long after, there a knock is heard and an old lady about 65 walks in slowly. Fuzuki is Mitsuki's maid and has watched over Mitsuki since she was a baby.

"Ah, Fuzuki, you're finally here. Take a seat if you will." Aoi gestured to the seat next to Mitsuki's.

"It has become apparent to me that my daughter Mitsuki is quite unhappy staying here." Mitsuki looked up quickly and stared at her father with her big brown eyes.

"So my wife and I," Aoi said as he turned to look at his wife and locked his hand with hers, "have decided to let Mitsuki live in Earth for 2 years. During that period, we would like you to play as her grandmother."

Fuzuki noded and smiled, "It would be my honor your highnesses."

Aoi then turned to Mitsuki and said softly, "Do you have any problems with that? Your mother and I only wanted you to experience what the people you someday will rule over are like. We want you to be close to them before you make your big decision."

Mitsuki sat in silence… will it make a difference? This world is so lonely, will I really like Earth? Well, it doesn't hurt to try right?

"I have no problem with that Father," she answered, "although, I will miss you both during this time."

"Don't worry honey," Hazuki smiled sadly, "we'll still keep in touch."


The next day, Mitsuki waved to her loving parents as four angels escorted Mitsuki and Fuzuki to the portal.

This will be a great experience. I wonder if I will finally make friends…
