DC Gothic – Young Justice
Part 21
Mount Justice. Happy Harbour.
"Diana, wait!" Superman called out.
He took hold of her arm as part of a futile effort to make her change her mind.
"Can't we sort this out without having you fight him" the Man of Steel asked Wonder Woman "I can talk to Gothic, get him to call off this duel".
The Amazon Princess wanted to settle this matter honourably, so she would go through with the duel.
"No, Kal El" she replied "I appreciate the gesture, but I need to take care of this myself. Don't worry as Themyscira's Champion, I have proven myself to be my people's best warrior. There's no need to be concerned about me".
Wonder Woman's safety wasn't Superman's real concern, as he knew very well that she could handle herself, he was more worried about the fallout from having a member of Justice League fight a member of the Team, or Young Justice as he'd heard it be called, they were suppose to be allies. Plus in a sense Colette was his daughter as well, and this had be upsetting her.
"Diana…" Superman tried to say.
Wonder Woman turned and smiled at the Man of Steel.
"Things will turn out fine, Clark" she promised.
When Wonder Woman entered the main room of the cave she looked upon her opponent without apprehension or hesitation. He was a young looking man, a boy in her mind, who dared to think he was good enough to share a bed with her daughter. She had forbidden the partnership, yet rather than heed her wishes Power Girl had refused to listen and then Azrael, or Gothic as he was known to his friends, had challanged her to a duel.
The stakes were simple. If Wonder Woman won then Azrael would break things off with Power Girl, and even leave the team, however if he won then Diana had to withdraw her objections. The Princess had been suprised by the challange, but she had accepted because for the Amaszons trail by combat was acceptable way of settling disputes.
Next Wonder Woman took note of Azrael's arms and armour. The young hero wore an outfit made of both leather and metal, and it was held together by buckles. It was like nothing the Princess had ever seen before, but she knew it was enchanted in some way just like her own armour was.
Normally the so called Avenging Angel wore a mask and kept a hood up while on missions, today he hadn't covered in face and his hood was down.
As for his weapons Azrael carried two magical swords into battle, but today he would only use one blade just as Wonder Woman would. The terms of the duel forbade the use of any other weapons.
Once she was done with her examation Wonder Woman marched towards him and she halted several feet away from him before moving into a fighting stance. Her sword was in her hand, and she was mentally prepared.
"Are you ready?" the Amazon inquired.
Azrael raised his flaming sword up into the air and made the first move. Diana easily blocked his high blow with her sword. The strength behind the blow was more powerful than Wonder Woman had expected, but that did not cause her to worry. If anything, it pleased her as it meant this would be a fairer duel.
After a few mores Diana knew that she would not need to hold back too much while duelling with this immortal. Diana also knew she needed to remain calm and composed as she sparred with him. This was not a battle to the death, this was a honourble duel and she would not it end with too much blood.
And of course there was always the chance that she would make a mistake and actually die, even if it was unlikely. Diana was not sure how Azrael's life could possibly end, however that didn't mean she was going to strike at the young hero without a thought to his safety. She might not be able to kill him, but no one was sure how extensive his healing power was, it wouldn't do to hack off a limb and leave the boy crippled.
Once both of the warriors had made a few moves, they circled warily around each other. Then one at a time, they took turns striking, further testing the strengths behind each other's blows.
After Diana and Gothic had a better idea of the others abilities the pace of their sword fight became fast and furious. Sparks flew off their swords as they parried blows of physical might and speed. Strikes and counterstrikes were exchanged. One moment, Azrael advanced and pushed Diana him back, and the next moment, it was Wonder Woman on the offensive.
As they continued to parry and strike, the group surronding them watched the battle. Rarely had even the more experienced heroes witnessed a swordfight that lasted as long as this. Most duels between two people ended quickly when the more skilled swordsmen, or swordswoman, overwhemled his or her foe. Sometimes the outcome could be decided by sheer luck, but most of the time the better warrior defeated the lesser.
For Clark, this was somwhat like watching a well choreographed fighting scene that he had until now only seen in movies. He had never truly seen Diana, or anyone really, so skillfully use a sword against a worthy opponent such as Gothic, who had the skills of a centuries old assassin/crusader to call upon.
The entire group was transfixed with what they were watching. And each one of them silently prayed or wished that the fight would end with any real injuries.
Soon Diana and Gothic used their swords to push at each other until they broke apart. Azrael was not out of breathe, but his breathing was a little ragged. Most of the heroes figured it would be over soon and that Wonder Woman would either drive the younger warriors to surrender or disarm him. It was only a matter of time.

Mount Justice. Happy Harbour.
"I don't get what just happen" Kid Flash said as the League members left the cave "Gothic lost, but he doesn't have to break with Colette".
Given the terms of the duel I should have been forbidden from ever seeing Power Girl ever again, but it hadn't worked out that way.
"The Amazons are a warrior people" I said to Wally West "I impressed Wonder Woman by acting as a warrior, and I won her approval".
I'd not expected that to happen, but nor was I surprised. What did shock me was Colette punching me in the arm, it really hurt.
"Don't ever do that again" she demanded "You nearly got yourself killed".
Actually I hadn't.
"Or at least horribly wounded" I corrected "Really it wasn't that bad. I think you did more damage than your mother did".
Colette didn't admit that she'd been wrong to hit me, however she did rub my arm. I figured that was as close to an apology as I would get.
"So you weren't fighting for Power so much as you were fighting to prove you're worthy of her" Wally summerised "Now I get it".
That had been the point. Treating Colette as a prize to be won would have offended Wonder Woman, fighting to be worthy of her in the eyes of another warrior was a different matter.
"What would you have done if she hadn't been so nice" wondered Artemis "Were you going to leave the team?".
That was what would have happened.
"I wouldn't have had a choice" I said "and its not like we had any other options. Wonder Woman would have done something drastic to break us up".
That was when I felt Colette rubbing my arm again.
"Are you hurt?" she asked.
Wonder Woman hadn't harmed me, however I was a little sore from the fight.
"A little" I said.
She smiled and then started to drag me off to the bedroom.

Mount Justice. Happy Habour.
"What are you doing?" I asked.
Colette sat down on the couch next to me that I had in my bedroom. It was a large chamber so I had plenty of space for new stuff and I brought myself a few things recently, including a TV.
"Taking care of you" she said.
She scooted closer, and started touching my shoulder.
"Let me take of care of you" she said gently "I want to".
It seemed wise to indulge her.
"Take off your shirt," she then said
I wondered if I had bruises she wanted to kiss better or if she just liked feeling my mucsles.
"Is this some ploy of yours" I asked "Some plan to get sex?".
She smiled at me.
"Do I need any ploys?" she asked back.
No she did not.
"So do I need a doctor?" I inquired once I was topless "Or will sexy nurse Colette be able to handle me".
She giggled softly.
"No" she said "I can handle it"
She then started to kiss me in different places.
"What are you doing?" I wished to know.
It was pretty clear that she was horny so I had no idea why I questioning her actions.
"Just relax," she said patiently "You need a massage".
I agreed with that.
"Do me and I'll do you?" I offered.
She was strong but also gentle as she helped me relax.
"You know If this whole superheroine thing doesn't work out for you, you'll make a damned good masseuse" I told her.
Again she laughed.
"Go lie down on the bed" she then said.
My thinking was that she was going to touch me somewhere fun.
"Yes, ma'am," I replied.
Soon after I was lying on the bed I closed my eyes and I felt her hands get back to work. Her fingers ran down my stomach, and then even lower
"If you don't stop, I'm going to end up fucking you," I warned her "Then you won't get your massage".
She bit down on her lower lip.
"Well that was the general idea" she replied.
I pushed her off me and then I was the one on top of her.
"You are going to get it" I said.
That made her smile.
"Take off my clothes" she requested.
My hands fell to the fly of her blue jeans and I quickly had them undone. Then we both helped peel them off her legs, and her panties followed swiftly. She kicked them free as I took of my boots. The rest of my clothes soon followed as Colette took off her top to show that she wasn't wearing a bra. Which was something I was grateful for.
"We need protection" she reminded.
It took me about ten seconds to find the box of condoms I kept in my room.
"Hurry up" Colette urged "I want you inside me".
I quickly put the condon on and soon I was thrusting into her body in a sure, steady rhythm. I fucked her with a single-minded intensity that left her gasping.
"Slow down…a bit" I heard say between moans.
I really didn't want to, yet somehow I managed to control myself enough.
"Yeah…like that…" she said between deep breathes "Nice and slow…"
I think she understood that I wanted it rougher as she didn't make me keep up the slow pace for long.
"Now harder... and faster" she urged "Yes…yes…"
She dug her nails into my back as my speed increased, and soon there were screams and gasps of pleasure spilling from her throat. Hearing them drove me on and really started giving it to her.
"I'm gonna…!" she screamed.
A moment later, she did and it was loud, but I hardly noticed the volume as I too busy cumming inside her.
"Can we do that...every night…?" she asked once I had rolled off her.
Sometime passed before I could answer as it me while to get my breathing under control. Plus the condom needed to be dealt with, they were annoying.
"If you insist" I said.
That made her very happy I saw her smile before she moved to rest her head on my chest.
"I'll make breakfast in the morning" she then said "Eggs, bacon, toast, and pancakes. Lots of pancakes".
That sounded yummy.
"I am so going to fuck you again after breakfast" I told her.
That made her giggle some more.
"Promise?" she asked.
I nodded, and then closed my eyes. It wasn't late, but I really wanted to get some sleep.
