Prologue: Is It Over or Barely Begun?

A woman in dark robes stood on a beautiful beach over looking the ocean. Slowly she bent down and planted a seed into the ground. Darkness surrounded the area where the seed was. Finally it began to sprout until it was a tall tree with seven blossoms. Each bloomed to reveal a sleeping man.

The woman walked over to the first blossom and touched a man with long blue hair. Gently she placed a silver band around his hair just at the neckline. His dark blue eyes opened as he gazed up her.

Next she went over to the blossom that held a man with silver hair and a black choker around his neck. Upon his right ear she attached a silver earring. He too awakened and looked up at her with violet eyes.

Third was a blossom holding a man with brown hair with red highlights. A thick band was placed around his neck that stretched from under his chin to the base of his neck. Red eyes opened and turned to her.

Fourth she approached a blossom holding a man with long blonde hair pulled into a ponytail that fell down the back of his head. Carefully she placed a silver ring on his right middle finger. Golden eyes stared up at her in curiosity.

The next blossom held a teen with messy silver hair and a golden hoop earring in his right ear. Yet another silver band was attached to his left wrist. Slowly ice blue eyes opened and then turned to face the woman in question.

The sixth blossom contained another teen with long orange hair and two braids in front of his ears. A small band of silver was placed upon the right braid. His sea-blue eyes opened and faced her.

Finally she came to the last blossom holding a boy with long golden hair and a single braid in front of his right ear. A necklace with a red stone surrounded by a silver ring was placed around his neck. He too opened green eyes to look at her.

When all seven men were awake, she stepped back. Everything was going perfectly. Once the Prétear was out of the way nothing would stop her. Her body began to glow with darkness as did the newly given bands.

"I am your new Mistress, my Dark Knights," she said, "You will obey my every command until I decide otherwise. Remember my name now and remember it well for if you forget the name of your mistress then it will cost you dearly.

"My name is Hidoi."

Himeno sighed as she wandered the halls of the mansion. She still lived in the same mansion as her parents, after much persuasion, along with her husband. Today the entire family was going through the usual routine of attempting to locate her daughter. Sighing again she found herself face to face with her husband who was talking with Mawata, her sister.

"Have you found her yet?" Himeno asked.

Hayate shook his head, "No I've checked everywhere that I can think of. I even sent the knights out to search for her."

Mawata shook her head, "Atarashi just seems to become more rebellious as the years go by."

Kei suddenly flashed into the middle of the group, "I found her."

"Where is she?" her worried parents asked.

"Working on some project with Shin at their school."

Hayate sighed, "Well at least she's safe. I just wish she wouldn't do this to us everyday."

"You and me both," Himeno agreed, "Well who's ready for some breakfast?"

The other three laughed at the comment glad to see that Himeno still had her appetite. Together they walked downstairs to meet the rest of the family along with the other knights that Kei had gathered. Everyone ate breakfast as a large family before speeding off to go to work or to complete other tasks. No one sensed the impending danger that would end their peace.
