Chapter 1
The Liel Sisters: Product of Secrecy.
It was the famous Celia Liel who had cut down Shyra Elcron Malius. Adorned with a blue dress similar to the Japanese kimono, held together in the back by a big, fake flower, and with wavy, to her shoulder long dark blue hair, going barefoot, she stood at about five foot six, give or take. Going along with the standard color choice her skin was tinged blue, but only so much that it feels more of a light purple, since put with the standard Caucasian human's skin color.
As she was there were few ways to identify her as an Android. One was her complete and total lack of a need to sleep, no lessening of the bodily functions, which she indeed had, so as to be able to hound a pursuing enemy for days without stopping. Another was her incredible combat skills. Programmed to be the better than any human at close range combat, she has been known to go toe-to-toe with at least three of the best Swordsmen around, and to come out on top with few scratches.
In terms of looks there was her unique skin color, her eyes, which indeed had an iris and a pupil separated from a standard white, but the iris and pupil were technological looking, with the strange red color and the black lines and dots and circles contained within. She was designed to look like a teenager in her prime, and that she never aged was one reason her face was so widely recognized.
Celia, who stood now over the human's dead, cut up corpse, pocketed her weapon and drew a different one. The one before resembled a Tonfa, but had a blade on it.
The weapon she held now was a standard sword, and she grabbed the still energized weapon from the fallen human's hand. Following this she leapt a few dozen feet into the air in a back flip, and cut two soldiers armed with ranged weapons to death as she landed, then threw the pilfered blade before those two bodies fell and struck a third in the neck, slicing his head clean off.
Utilizing her and her sister's Radio Link, she reported, "all finished here Tella, how are things on your side?"
Tella Liel, the sister to Celia Liel, and five years her junior in time only, was more easily identifiable as an android.
Color coded yellow, she had a helmet-like head, with two long rod-like things for ears that protruded from the helmet. She was obviously a female android, but her eyes were designed for long-range sighting, so they were odd in that they were merely glowing colors underneath the visor-section.
Only about five feet, she was shorter than her sister, but Tella was what Celia wasn't, an expert at ranged weaponry. She had little artificial skin, but what she had was identifiable as Caucasian. This was the first time any human had her recorded in existence besides her creator.
She was different from her sister in that Tella often changed her design, and right now she had metallic wings folding out from extensions on her back, with energy slicing down from it so as to be able to help her remain afloat, and she had a small skirt-like piece of protective metal around her waist, and there was her bright color adorning both the skirt and the wings. The yellow mixed in with a black color, so she wasn't totally noticeable in the night.
Her entire outer structure was designed of moveable plates, black and yellow, all of which her mechanical brain could move at will. So if she so wished she could be entirely yellow, or, as she was at that moment, entirely black, hidden among the shadows of night. Most of the time she had it so that the yellow and black formed a design across her body, and Celia often stared at amazement as her sister made the colors change rapidly to create the image of a dancing human figure across Tella's chest.
As stated before, Tella had a fondness for blasting weaponry, and at that moment held a large Energy Cannon on her shoulder, and light gathered in a sphere in front of it as the energy charged, and launched out in a brilliant pillar of power heading straight for an enemy sub-camp.
Tella's mechanical face lit up in a smile as an explosion tore the place apart. She turned her own Link on and said, "just finished over here as well, is that the last of them Celia?"
The response came only a moment after, "yes, I believe so, they sent Malius to capture me - us, so they're starting to take this seriously. We can't keep your existence hidden forever Tella, come on, we have to get moving."
"But sis, my legs hurt, I've been running around and leaping and blasting people to death all night! I'm exhausted." Tella, ever the younger sister, and ever reveling in that, had a tendency to complain about any physical activity that didn't thwart threats to herself.
"Why did he give you such a troublesome personality?"
"who?" Tella wondered, having few memories, and most of them Celia's own.
"Our Creator." Celia responded simply as if it was an obvious fact, which it was.
"Was our creator a guy?"
"I think so... come on, we have to head out." If you wanted to grasp the concept of just what the Liel Sisters were, you have to think of a human, one who has every human sense and every human function, but has the ability to shut them down upon will should they become an obstacle, then has the ability to turn them back on at a moment's notice.
This human would also be capable of doing inhuman things, such as never tiring out, never wearing down, needing no sleep yet able to sleep and dream, and while this human's body would need no nourishment, it could still take in food and taste it, and use it. The person would be capable of leaping half-way up a skyscraper, and then grabbing hold of it, and climbing the rest of the way before a helicopter could reach them.
This human would also indeed be the best swordsperson in history, or be an expert with rifles and weaponry of that sort.
For at the basics, that is indeed what the Liel Sisters are.
"There's a town to the west a ways," Tella said after a moment's silence.
"I suppose we'll be able to find a place to stay... I'll go to town to see if I can find anything useful. Maybe there's a Blade store."
The new weapons which were widely used were another invention of the Liels' creator. This they were sure of. But no person alive could tell you who invented them.
And they had no name. Often they were called E-(insert weapon) or Energy (weapon), but nobody knew the intended name for the weapons, and so, that's what they were called. Some business's specialize in the close range weapons, and they are called 'Blades' by the common people, since that's what they were, blades, on many different styles of weapons, but blades they were indeed.
And so Celia led her sister to the outskirts of the town, and then they split up to look for an abandoned building. Tella spotted an old cottage outside of town, and they decided that it would be suitable for waiting out the rest of the night.
