Black Blood Brothers

Jiro Mochizuki and his little brother hide on board, stowaways hoping to jump the border to safety. But they soon find their ship under attack by the Suppression Team of the Order Coffin Company, the soldiers attempting to destroy any and all illegal vampiric refugees stashed away at sea.

Making their way to shore at long last, Jiro and Kotaro are unexpectedly rescued by Mimiko, a Compromiser, another member of the Company, but this one interested in promoting peaceful co-existence rather than simply eliminating the black bloods.

The captured Jiro is interrogated by the Suppression Team, suspected of being a Kowloon Child and if so, subject to immediate extermination.Meanwhile, Mimiko and Kotaro join back up with Kelly's group just before all hell breaks loose, and this time the human soldiers will be nowhere near enough to handle the job

With great difficulty, Jiro is battling the Kowloon Children, only a few remaining. But worn out as he is, the vampire alone may not be up to the task.

Jiro and Kotaro have finally made it into the Special Zone, no small thanks to Mimiko. But they soon find their welcome less than promising.

A rogue attack on Jiro leads to an invitation to meet with Zelman Clock, leader of one of the three houses. He invites the brothers to stay and join forces with him, before they become enemies.

With Mimiko's apartment destroyed, the Compromiser joins a conference between the Company and the leaders of the various bloodlines.

Jiro decides to flee the Special Zone with his brother, even as the council is still meeting to decide his fate, for more Kowloon Children are determined to breach the barrier.

Kotaro wanders lost through the city, but is rescued by Zelman Clock before any harm can come of it. Meanwhile, Mimiko and Kelly search out the truth behind the rumor of the Eleventh Yard, but what they find is far more vexing.

The false Kelly Wong proves to be none other than Cassa, the warehouse her hideout full of infectious Kowloon blood. She seeks something in the Eleventh Yard and will not be satisfied until she finds it.

The Kowloon Children rampage throughout the city, spreading their infection amongst humans and vampires alike.

Healed and replenished by Mimiko's blood after his near disaster, the lingering resonance between Jiro and the Compromiser reveal many dark facets of his past, facts that affect the present and even the future.
