Welcome Welcome Welcome everyone, it's my pleasure to present New Horizons!

In Episode 16 of *The World Guardians*, the stakes are higher than ever as alliances unravel and new powers emerge. After Csheri’s brutal attack, Alex is left in one of her own experimental devices. Though she initially falls ill, Alex seems to make a miraculous recovery, only to discover she now possesses newfound abilities. In a shocking moment of rage, she pushes Jake across the room with superhuman strength. Realizing that this same procedure has been performed on three other women, Jake, The Siren, and Alex grow increasingly fearful. They suspect that their captive test subjects may soon manifest the same unpredictable powers, and they scramble to prevent chaos from erupting.

Meanwhile, Chase Monroe uncovers Knox’s sinister plan: she is once again collecting a team of mind-controlled superheroines. Determined to stop her, Chase confronts Knox but is met with a chilling obstacle. Knox uses Csheri (now Override Prime) and Amber (American Override) as her personal shield, daring Chase to engage them. Unwilling to fight and potentially harm fellow heroines who are unable to control their own actions, Chase is for--d to retreat. She returns to Guardian Headquarters, rallying her friends to devise a strategy to save their comrades and stop Knox’s twisted mission.

In the depths of Knox Labs, the situation grows even darker. Pyckle, ever the mad scientist, forces Trixi—now mind-hopped into her cousin Lily’s body—to aid in the development of a new generation of ocular implants, now named the *Daedalus Implants*. These implants, capable of hacking any machine, are a terrifying evolution of Trixi’s original design. To Trixi’s horror, she watches helplessly as the implants are installed into American Override, solidifying Knox’s control over her once-proud heroine.

Will Alex’s new powers be a blessing or a curse, and what will happen if their captive test subjects develop the same abilities? Can Chase and her friends find a way to stop Knox’s growing army of mind-controlled heroines without causing them harm? And what havoc will the Daedalus Implants unleash now that they’ve been activated in American Override?

The answers to these and many new questions will begin to unfold in this heart-pounding sixteenth episode of *The World Guardians - New Horizons*! Episode 16 is available for members NOW! Don’t miss out on this thrilling new chapter of action, intrigue, and heroism!
