Down in a forest road... two Knights stood guard at the large iron gate that led to Vars, the Floating Castle capital of the world.. All of them dressed in full cybernetic armor, Star Blades sheathed at their sides.
As they stood there.. a dark shadowy cloud entered their vision.
"What's that?" said one knight, drawing his sword.
The shadow flowed in, and then began twisting itself into shape until it had formed into Violet, wearing her usual goth clothing and holding her parasol.
Violet smiled darkly. "Why, hello there."
"A Super Human." said the other knight. "Get back girl. No Super Human is a match for a knight."
"My my." said Violet. "Such a harsh response.. and you great strong knights must be so tired guarding this gate all day. I think maybe you could use some company."
"What do you-oh!?" The Knights stopped mid sentence and stared as Violet unlaced her skirt and clothes.. and walked up, wearing fancy black spider-web designed lingerie.
"Oh, don't be so shy." said Violet walking closer, and closer, and...
"SHIIIIN SHIIIIINNNNNN!!!" a large shadow tendril erupted from behind the knights and slashed into them, causing them to fall to the ground, unconscious.
"REALLY!?" Mizo jumped out of a bush, looking incredulous. "Did you have to take off your clothes!?"
"Well, I had to be convincing." said Violet as she put her clothes back on." Frankly, they're right, each Knight is powerful enough to decapitate a mountain, lay waste to a country, their power is almost insurmountable, my normal fighting methods would be useless. It's a good thing I laced my shadows with sleeping serums or they'd shrug off my attacks as if it were nothing."
"They're that strong?" Mizo said.
"Yes, and there is no exaggeration. " said Violet. "When we get in, we're there to sneak them out, not fight. If we dare to even try a fight, we'll lose."
"It's just, Violet-chan, you and Big Sis are just so powerful, it's hard to believe that there are non super humans stronger than you two, how do they do it?"
"They wield a force called Horizon." said Violet.
"Horizon?"
"Long ago, doing the early 22nd century, when the World Government was considering a Monarchy as a means of government. " said Violet. "The first king was almost killed by one of the world's most notorious villains, Vorgon the Devastator. And so, the world government knew that they needed to have an enforcing power that not only matched the most powerful Super Human, but outmatched it as well. And it just so happened, at the same time a large meteor had been discovered on the Mars Colony that's known now as-"
"Darkholm City!" said Mizo. "I always wanted to go there, but Space Shuttle Tickets are so expensive."
"Yes, it was Darkholm city before it became a residential area instead of a scientific colony." said Violet. "Inside the meteor, they found a yellow stone. The stone was called Horizon because of it's clear visible color, and one scientist figured out how to liquefy the stone, and inject it into the human body."
"What happened?" Mizo asked.
"The serum created granted a human control over life energy itself. By controlling their own biological energy, Knights have increased strength, agility, senses, and self control." said Violet. "However, the power is hard to control, very difficult, it takes years of training to even master a fraction of the vast power it gives." said Violet. "The Star Blades, which are traditionally forged by Knight Initiates to signify their graduation, are weapons designed to help them channel their power for easier control... much like wands in Harry Potter. The best way to overpower a Knight, is to take away their sword, but even then, their hand to hand combat can wrestle down a Giant Turborantula in two blows.. and that's just the rookies."
