-Themyscira-
"I have been on Earth for years, yet I've never seen...a man." The woman said as the man sat up. He couched up some more water before clearing his throat. "Who are you?" The woman asked.
"My name is Bruce Banner. What's your name?" He asked back at her.
"Diana, Princess of Thermiscyra." She said confidently, placing her fists on her slender waist.
"Okay." Bruce said as if he thought she was insane. "If you've never seen a man before, can you tell me who your father is?" He asked. The woman barely cracked a smile before confessing an answer.
"Zeus." The man raised an eyebrow as if he had heard the craziest thing in the world.
"What?! Did you just say that Zeus is your father? Zeus, as in the king of the Olympian gods?" He asked.
"Yes." The woman blankly said. The man rubbed his hands through his hair, finding this very hard to believe, though he is probably the last person to doubting the existence of gods, given what he is.
"So...you're basically the daughter of a god? Is that what you're saying?" He asked trying to process this insane revelation.
Before she could answer, she could hear yelling in the distance. They both looked out to the open ocean, seeing German U-boats approaching the island. Bruce carefully stood up alongside Diana, the two staring in distress at what they saw.
"Germans." Bruce stated. Diana squinted before looking at Bruce, puzzled by what he said.
"What did you say?" She asked.
"Germans. They're...very bad people, to put it lightly." Bruce said. Diana shrugged before grabbing Bruce and leaping to the top of the cliff. "Well, that takes care of that. Except they're still coming!" Bruce yelled as he noticed the Germans making it ashore and disembarking from the U-boats.
"(Spread out! There were people on this beach! Find them!)" Diana, overhearing their dialect, looks to Bruce.
"What'd he say? Their language is unknown to me." She admitted.
"I don't know, but if I had to guess, something along the lines of, 'Find the people on the beach!'" Bruce said. "We have to do something. They are trespassing on your property." Bruce quickly pointed out. Diana simply smirked.
"Good thing I have an army of warriors." Diana said, still smirking. Bruce raised an eyebrow before Diana whistled. Much to Bruce's surprise, over three hundred women in steel armor popped out of nowhere, carrying bows, spears, and swords. They all leapt down and aimed their spears at Bruce.
"Whoa! Okay I-" Bruce started to say before being interrupted.
"Silence, mortal! Diana!" The woman yelled, looking at Diana, her eyes full of anger. "Why is a mortal man standing on the sands of Thermiscyra?!"
"He is not a villain! I saved him from being taken by the sea. He is harmless!" Diana said, trying to keep this already tense situation from getting even more out of hand.
"Did you lay a hand on my daughter?!" She loudly says to Bruce, wanting an answer immediately. "Speak, or you will taste the steel of the greatest warriors on this Earth!"
"No, ma'am. I did not touch her. I promise you...I do not wish any harm on your people. But the Germans that just arrived...well, they're monsters."
"Germans?! Here, on Themyscira?! Amazons, prepare for battle!" She loudly shouted. The other Amazons stopped pointing their spears at Bruce and thrust them into the air above them in a sign of upcoming glory. Before charging against the German army, she turned to Bruce and Diana. "Diana, I want you to keep this one safe and alive. He may have more information than he's let on. Do not endanger your life. That's an order." She commanded before charging at the Germans alongside her fellow Amazons.
Swords cut through their rifles, spears were rammed through their bodies, and arrows flung into the Germans' limbs. Soon, the tide turned. Some Germans pulled out an MG-42 and started mowing down as much as twenty to thirty Amazons within seconds, much to the horror of Diana and Bruce. Deciding to do something, Bruce stood up, his fists clenched and an enraged expression on his face.
"Bruce, what are you doing?! I have to keep you safe!" Diana yelled out.
"Diana, I can't help but feel it's my fault the Germans are here! I have to do something, otherwise they'll kill all the Amazons, including your mother!" Bruce argued with the beautiful goddess.
"But...you'll die!" Diana said as tears began to well up in her eyes as more Amazons fell to the stream of bullets coming from the MG-42.
"No, I won't. You said you were a goddess?" Bruce asked Diana, who immediately nodded her head up and down. "Well, let's just say I have a secret as well." Bruce said as he ran into the battle, slowly going through a startling transformation. He screamed loudly as his skin and eyes turned green, his body bulged and changed proportion, and his muscles became massive. He was now a giant, green skinned monster standing at around 9 feet. He stared down at the horrific massacre in front of him and charged a German that had a knife aimed at a wounded Amazon.
("Time to die! May no one remember your death!") The German said as the knife inched closer to the Amazon's throat.
"MEAN GERMAN LEAVE PRETTY LADY ALONE!" Hulk loudly roared as he grabbed and easily tugged the German off the Amazonian warrior and threw him into the sea.
"By the gods..." The wounded warrior said, amazed yet horrified by what she saw standing before her. Hulk ignored her proclamation and charged at more Germans, punching and throwing them around. The Germans taking care of the MG-42 aimed it at Hulk and fired, but the bullets literally bounced off of his green hide, as if he was wearing the densest armor ever made by man.
"You shouldn't have done that, because you just made me angry!" Hulk said before approaching the still firing turret before lifting it off the ground and tearing it apart with his bare hands. As Hulk looked down at the Germans, a multitude of them latched onto his waist and legs in an attempt to knock him down. Some even managed to leap onto his back.
"Amazons, assist that...creature!" Diana's mother commanded as a few archers fired their arrows at the men latched onto the Hulk's back. The arrows embedded into the bodies of the men on Hulk's back, forcing them to fall from their foe's rear flank. Hulk quickly dealt with the men on his waist and legs, merely gripping and tugging them off before tossing them aside. Before they could get back up, they were quickly dispatched by the Amazons. Soon, none were left. As Hulk panted heavily, Diana slowly approached the creature, inspecting its features, including its exaggerated musculature and its primal but somewhat attractive face. Her 'inspection' was interrupted by the Amazons pointing their spears and loaded bows at him.
"Seriously?" Hulk said, dropping his arms to his side. Diana got between Hulk and the spears of her fellow Amazons.
"Diana, get out of the way!" One of the Amazons demanded, her grip on her spear tightening.
"No! He saved your lives! He may appear as a monster, but he's nothing like the Germans! Please! We can give him a trial. Even if you exile me, I'll still defend him!" Diana said defiantly. Hulk's eyes widened, surprised that not only was she defending him, but that she wasn't scared of him either.
"Lower your weapons." Diana's mother ordered. "If this beast saved us, we shall see if he is friend or foe to the Amazons of Themyscira. First order of business, where is the man from before?" She asked, confused on where Bruce went, unaware that Hulk and Bruce are one and the same.
"Mother, that man is this creature. He transformed himself into it so he could help us." Diana said, the other Amazons looking at her like she was insane. Much to their amazement, Hulk suddenly started to shrink in size and muscle mass, slowly turning back into Bruce Banner. Two Amazons quickly grabbed his arms and dragged him away, despite Diana's demand for them to release him.
-Themyscira Throne Room-
Bruce was now restrained, two chains wrapped around his wrists and anchored to the ground. A collar with spikes aligned with his neck, which prevented him from transforming into the Hulk, though he was trying to avoid a fight.
"My daughter says your name is Bruce Banner. Is that your name, mortal?" Diana's mother asks while sitting on a throne with Diana standing beside her.
"Yes, ma'am. That is my name." Bruce kindly replied, trying to make a good impression on the Amazons.
"Are your reasons for helping us of noble intent?" She asked, unsure if he can be trusted.
"Yes, ma'am. I helped your people because I wanted to." Bruce said honestly.
"Do you find my daughter attractive?" She asked rather intrusively.
"Excuse me?" Bruce asked, surprised by the question.
"My daughter. Do you think she is beautiful? Answer honestly, or I'll be forced to torture it out of you." She said threateningly. Bruce immediately looked at Diana, who looked back at him with great concern.
"Yes!" Bruce yelps out his answer in a panicky tone of voice. Bruce clears his throat before speaking in a more dignified way. "Yes. I do think your daughter is a very beautiful woman, but I would never try to take advantage of her." Bruce says. Diana smiles at Bruce's confession of finding her attractive. Diana was well aware of her beauty, but she never heard a man publicly admit that he found her attractive.
"I've heard all I need to know. You will be put in one of many chambers for 12 hours. After that time passes, you will board a small vessel and return from where you came." She coldly said. Diana was emotionally hurt by this demand.
-Author's Note-
Hope you enjoyed this chapter! Next chapter will include Diana interacting with both Bruce and Hulk before pleading with her mother to let him stay. She'll most likely deny her request and leave with Bruce.
