One day, she was told by one of the victims that her mother was murdered by her leader, Byakurai. She tries to kill him but it fails. In an escape, Yuki meets Takashi, a member of the rebel forces. While both are betrayed by their leaders, trust and romance grow between them. Meanwhile, Byakurai is making plans to hunt down Yuki and kill her.
