A week after Seimei confides to his younger brother his real name, he is found dead - murdered.
Ritsuka, Seimei's younger brother, transfer's school's and tries to make a new start.
On his first day of school, he meets in his class a girl named, Yuiko. He thinks she has big boobs and looks dumb. She bombards him with many questions. Getting annoyed he asks her why ask all these trivial questions and she says because the other classmates told her to talk to him and so she did. Ritsuka says something harsh to her and makes her cry.

Later when Ritsuka is rushing out of the school he is stopped by a man with no ears. A weapon named Soubi. At first he is terrified but when he learns this man was his brother, Seimei's, friend, he gets all excited and decides the two should make memories by taking a bunch of pictures. Ritsuka is scared of being forgotten.

While in the park with Soubi, they are attacked. But, wait! Soubi can cast spells with words!?
Soubi turns out to be Ritsuka's brother's fighter unit and now he is telling Ritsuka he is his and will do anything for him because he loves him. The other fighter units do not like this. A fighter can not have two masters and Soubi is forced to fight alone against Breathless.

It seems the fighter unit fights the battle but the fighter units master takes the damage. The master is the sacrifice. Is this what happened to Beloved?

Soubi saves Ritsuka and then leaves.

Ritsuka is now at a doctor, one that deals with his lost memories and switched personality. He has two personalities and his mother hates him for not being her "Ritsuka".

Ritsuka and Soubi find Seimei's will on the computer. The note mentions who he was killed by and how he's giving his fighter unit to him.

Breathless finds Loveless at school and they battle. Beloved fighter wins and Loveless decides to become friends with Yuiko.

Soubi is constantly confusing Ritsuka by saying "I love you" all the time, and then surprising him with the fact that he's a college student and giving him a cell phone as a present to call him anytime he's feeling lonely.

At that same moment Soubi is feeling a little scared as well because he must start Loveless' training soon. He's decided to start him off by making Loveless pierce his (Soubi's) ear. Soubi then leaves but Loveless stops him and gives him an umbrella and orders him to leave and not catch a cold.
Soubi is also conflicted with his feelings towards Ritsuka. He was told to go to him by Seimei, but now he actually loves him.

In the end Ritsuka, Yuiko and Yayoi all decide to hang out on their day off and make memories.
