On top of a tall building in Singapore, the Olympian Apollo shares some champagne with three beautiful women, idly bragging about the activities of his father. As the girls look out over the balcony to the street below, Apollo reaches out, and activates something within their minds. Somewhere on a farm in Virginia, a mysterious woman clothed only in a cape of feathers uses a sharpened scythe to slice off the head of a horse. From the opened neck-wounds emerge humanoid arms and heads, growing into monstrous centaurs.
