One day, a mysterious virus that infected humans appeared and killed every human who was infected over the age of 13. At the same, time, vampires came out of the shadows and enslaved as much of mankind as possible, using children as their source of food. Yuuchirou Byakuya was one of them, and tried to escape from the vampires's territory along with other children he considered family, but all but him were apparently killed. Consumed by the guilt of having left his best friend Mikaela to die, Yuuchirou swears vengeance, but things will be more complicated than what he thinks...
