In the seemingly best future on 2017, Takemichi Hanagaki gets killed at his own wedding ceremony and sent back to 2005 by Setsuna Himejima, a mysterious mafia donna who's capable to foresee the future.
In the new timeline of 2005, Setsuna sees the...
If a 14-years-old girl got pinned to the wall by a hot delinquent boy in the dark back alley, what her thoughts were supposed to be?
Of course, just like every romantic visual novel, lust and thrill would take over fear. However, as for me, I was rather confused. Because just a few hours ago, I beat the hell out of some buffy annoying guys who were harassing me. And now I couldn't move a single inch of my body, because of this lean looking guy's iron grip. Then again, I was not supposed to know what he was packing under the grey baggy jacket he was wearing. Then my eyes caught a symbol on his jacket, an angel without head. The same symbol I saw in an abandoned gaming zone few blocks away from the cafe I worked. Before I could say anything, I found myself shivered to feel his hot breath in my ear.
"You're coming with me..."
And my already messed up life turned even more chaotic as I obeyed him...
....................
Year 2003:
Before I turned 12, I never knew that my life was very similar to life in a deserted island.
I don't have any memory of my mother, as she died while giving birth of me, or so I heard. I also never knew anything about fatherly love. My father mostly talked to me only to remind that I was going to be the ladyship of his self-founded organization 'Kuro Hime'. But in order to become the dark princess of that titular organization, raising me meant isolation from the world. Papa got me homeschooling, everything I needed was either always there or used to be brought within moments. I didn't know anyone else other than my father, the bodyguards and a few staffs of the organization. I used to be allowed to go out only once in a month with our bodyguards in our luxurious black limousine. I had a phone where I was allowed to surf internet, I even had access into R18 stuffs. But my phone was restricted by firewall and was incapable to make calls or contact to outsiders other than my father and the bodyguards.

I always thought this life meant to be normal, until I saw people celebrating spring festivals and enjoying fireworks from my balcony. Although the penthouse on our 30th-storey residence "Hime Tower" provided a spectacular view of the fireworks and cityscape, yet for the first time I wished I could watch with someone else, someone... who I could talk about anything other than Kuro Hime. For the first time I realized that I was a lonely princess without a single friend.
One of my father's most trusted bodyguards was Monroe. He was the most decent person to talk in the entire Hime Tower. Monroe's main task was to monitor and distract me from any fascination of the outside world. But he was kind and always made sure that I didn't get bored in my isolated life. I will always be grateful to him for teaching me efficient fighting skills throughout my childhood, and being a second father figure for me.
Monroe was also the one who told me what Kuro Hime actually was. Shortly, it was a crime organization that used to make money mainly by black marketing, drug dealing, smuggling and other foul businesses. But he didn't say anything more than that, so those illegal terms just flew over a 12-years-old girl's head.
