This is a fic I'm writing primarily because I think it's something nice to write. It's a little detailed but hopefully in time that will be explained in the fic. It is based primarily off the Golden Age Part 1 omnibus of the first sixty William Moulton stories. It does take small things from other Wonder Woman versions. I hope you enjoy reading as well.

Chapter One: Time Changes All Things

The man in love was not a sane being some of the time. That wasn't saying something wrong about the man in love, they had a super power that most individuals didn't have and they had the power of their loved ones to support them through the hardest part. To be the man lucky enough to be loved by the Amazonian princess was something else entirely. In fact, to even be able to be so close to the Amazonian princess gave a man some strength.

To Steve Trevor, military officer, it made him feel like a prince of heaven.

Or at least, most of the time it did. He wasn't sure whether it was possible that he was actually here, seeing the impact of one life that saved billions across the globe.

It was because Wonder Woman, his wonder woman, had never died before or at least he hadn't held her when she had.

All of his time with this fantastic woman, he had thought that she was unbeatable and had tried to deny any inclination of the opposite being true. Now though, he had his hands around the woman he loved and he had her blood staining them forever.

Had he miscalculated something back there? Could Wonder Woman, Diana Prince, lived because of him? Had he killed the love of his life?

He tried to go over the battle plan in his head, he tried to go over every move and every alternative move and every alternative of the alternative move. It could have gone so differently and if he was unable to revive his princess, he wouldn't forgive himself.

"Major Trevor," Paula said as she stood behind him, "I've brought my machine. We need to move her."

Steve felt women coming towards him, but despite both Paula and Etta being beside him, he kept his arm around the woman he loved, letting his fingers run through her long black hair and cup her cheek. He felt them try to pry her away and stared in horror at the limp movements.

This was Wonder Woman gosh darn it! He didn't want them to take her away from him.

"I can hold her weight," he said as if that was the deciding factor among all others. "I've got her, I can carry Diana."

"She is Princess Diana," one of the Amazonians whispered

"She is my Diana," Steve argued before allowing himself to hold her up and bring her over to Paula who set her down on what looked like a regular bed, that was until it turned blue and showed a tunnel opened for Wonder Woman to be sent through. "What are you doing?" he asked sadly, "Where are you taking her?"

"We can't support her here, she'll be shot off to another point in space and at that time will be able to come back. She's done it before," Paula replied, "Under the great Aphrodite, I would never allow her to get hurt. She will come back."

"Under the great red, white, and blue, I have to know where she is going," Steve said before he looked down. He knew it was foolish for any mortal man to be faring off against the Amazonians, but a man in love sometimes did much different things than a man thinking logically."

Sensing that they were going to pull Diana through, Steve moved on top of her, only finding a small smile to creep over his lips when Diana held out her hand and her mouth moved slowly with one word:

"Steve."

That was it before they were shooting down in a smoky fog of blues, blacks, and greys until finally there was darkness.

Beeeeeep

"Should we announce it?" a man said as Steve Trevor finally found himself regaining consciousness, his hands reached out and touched metal. "Time of death is…"

Beep Beep Beep Beeep Beep

"Guess not," a doctor said as Steve opened his eyes.

Where on earth was he? He looked at the tiled floors, the bottom of lab coats, he pushed himself up noticing a ring on his finger and stared at it. It was something he had never seen before, but why did it look so..familiar. He got himself standing before staring around in wonder at the technology around him. This was technology right? Not magic, regular people hadn't found a way of generating magic had they?

"Where?" Steve asked as he stared at his own lab coat, he had a stethoscope around his neck, several medical devices on his person. He looked in wonder at the people who were either staring at him or staring at the body on the table. "What the devil is?"

Hearing the beeping from the machine, Steve got to his feet and his smile widened greatly as he saw that Diana was here, just in a different state. She seemed younger somehow, pretty in a different way but still his gorgeous Diana. She was in a hospital gown, but where were her bracelets, her lasso, where was her Wonder Woman outfit?

"I…" he said as he took in the women in the room, the technology strapped to his beloved, everything. Where on earth was he?

"Don't worry," an African-American doctor smiled to him, "She's going to be just fine."

"My wife?" Steve asked as he stared at the ring. Diana was the person he was betrothed to right? She was the only woman here that he loved. He looked at her hands, no rings.

"Doctor Trevor," the doctor said with a concerned spark in her eyes, "Your wife died four years ago, well unless you and Diana did get hitched without letting us know and I doubt you went to Vegas or anything else with her so busy studying and you here all the time."

Steve took a step back not sure what new piece of information to digest first.

"Holy smokes!" he said as there was a little chuckling even in this situation, "I'm not a doctor, I'm a soldier. Don't tell me that those blasted Germans have thwarted our fine soldiers and taken hold of our fine American cities."

"The Germans?" the other doctor asked, "How long ago was that? I mean, if you had said Iraq or Afghanistan or even Korea, but the Germans…"

"Italians? Japanese?" Steve asked, he looked around, "They are not our enemies."

"Not unless you've been playing first person shooters at two in the morning," a male nurse joked, "You doing okay Doctor Trevor?"

Steve looked around, "So, none of you are fighting in the second World War?" he asked wanting to get a clue on what on earth was happening around him. "Never mind, we need to help this young lady right here. This is the woman I'm seeing, Diana right?"

"Of course it's Diana," the nurse said, "I think we best get your head looked at Doctor, you might have a concussion, one that makes you think you're in a video game since there's no way you'd have been alive when we were fighting in the second world war."

"Gadzooks!" Steve said alarmed, "It's much more vital that you stop this young woman, this angel, my angel from bleeding herself to death it's much too early to make a call on the situation."

"It'd be much easier for me," the woman said as she tried to get Steve to sit down, "for you to get your head examined and then to come back here. We all know what a high profile medical case this is and not just because she's your girlfriend. I'd also really like you not upsetting her and Diana Prinz is going to be upset with all of these insults against her countrymen."

Steve's eyes widened. He flinched, his American angel couldn't be…his girl from the beautiful Paradise Islands…his intelligent and smart Wonder Woman…"Don't tell me, the Prinz you said wasn't Prince, dear god don't tell me my sweetheart is a German spy."

"Well, I'm not going to tell you she's a spy," the other doctor said.

Steve paled as he gazed over his angel. What cruel devil would do this to him? Why would they bring them here both together, well when Diana woke up they would solve this, they would get to the bottom of this and bring his glorious princess back to herself. He didn't understand what kind of ploy had been taken against him and his troops but this was a plot to get him to reveal secrets, wasn't it?

Steve looked around suspiciously as he moved forward to the woman he loved.

"S-Steve?" she asked not opening her eyes.

Steve flinched again, he could hear the change in her voice, he could hear that faint German accent. He hated to admit it, but even a German voice from her lips sounded like one of the purest and most musical things on earth.

"I'm…" Steve coughed, "I'm right here, my angel," he said as the room seemed to watch him.

Tears filled Steve's eyes, he couldn't forgive what the world had done to his poor lover. For all of the wrongs in the world, to be cursed with this new personality, new character to build into. He hadn't spoken much himself, but he knew his voice did sound a little different. He just hoped he was a true blooded American, the kind that Superman would note as his own countryman.

"S-Steve, please…" Diana continued as she reached for him, he held her hand and let her curl her fingers around it. "Please don't go," she begged with tears in her eyes.

"I promise," he said before noticing that his voice sounded like one of those New York voices. Hopefully he was a true New Yorker, he could handle that. He felt himself sniff in an unmanly way, starting to feel self-conscious with the way the room was reading him. "I'll stay right here, well first I might need a few tests, but I'll try and be here," he chuckled.

Diana seemed to be comforted by something as simple as the touch of his hand. Steve took some long and deep breaths and chuckled again. "I must seem like such a dreary fellow," he joked, "acting so unmanly in front of so many. I can not tell you how proud I am of you, my angel. Of all those beautiful things in the world, it is you who bears the most strength. Just open those beautiful eyes of yours so I can assure you are alright."

After a few more moments, Diana opened her eyes and Steve gazed into the ones he loved so dearly. He watched her and as he continued to watch her, his smile disappeared and his eyes widened in shock.

"Who are you?" she asked, "Vere am I?"

Steve felt his heart being torn into, "I'm Steve, your Steve," he tried to tell her. No matter who she was now, this was his girl, the woman he intended to make his wife.

"I don't…know a Steve," she said touching her forehead before flinching in pain. Steve stared at her, did Wonder Woman ever feel pain like this before?

"Wonder Woman saved you, surely you know her," Steve tried to prompt the woman.

"I don't know Vonder Voman either," she said as Steve stared at her as if he had been betrayed. "Vose eyes though, vose eyes I know," she reached up to him and he sank into her touch. He knew this had to be the right woman. "Who am I?" she asked

Steve sighed and managed to bring peace to his face again, "You are the woman I love, now rest, I'll tell you the rest a little later," he said. Maybe that would give him some time to find out what the devil was going on here.
