Waking up in a prison cell, Gin is then told that he is being held captive for his own safety and will soon hold trial to be released into the public. During his stay in the cell, Gin meets his cellmate Kakale who, despite his kind demeanor, is a powerful vampire wanted for murder. Kakale soon swoons the vulnerable Gin and betrays him by escaping in the boy's form and leaving poor Gin in a strange land with a body that is not his own.
Nonetheless, when Kakale's lover Rakioul shows up, Gin finds out that perhaps having Kakale's body might not be such a bad thing after all.
