The sound of hooves making contact against the dirt. The sound of wheels of a large wagon rolling across the ground. The only sounds that could be heard coming from a dirt trail heading into a wide open field with its destination lurking off in the distance. A wagon carrying valuable cargo. At least that is what the owner thinks. A cruel man that sits silently in front of the wagon staring forward while another sits next to him steering the horses forward. His hired help of this night. If he is to do a good job then perhaps he would become a permanent hire. After all, his cargo is very precious. Sure all of the gold hidden deep within the chest in the wagon is precious to him. Nothing is more precious to him than gold and silver. But those that make him such coins? Make him so wealthy? Well they are truly the hidden treasure. A gift that keeps on giving. He was just lucky enough to have not one not two but three of them. Three young ladies. Three sisters even. Three young sisters that were sold to him long ago. A fitting payment for what was owed to him by a small family. Sisters that slowly over time he has broken. Has used to his own benefit selling off their body to anyone with coins in their pocket. Sometimes they would be returned back to him with bruises. A sight that would often anger him and demand extra payment for their services. A service that has gone on for these past five years. Five years of these young ladies under his enslavement. Under his control. But perhaps not for long. Especially if the rumors he has been hearing about are true. Rumors that have spread like wildfire for the past month.

Rumors of two unknown warriors. The Warriors of Light. A title fitted for legends. A title given to them for their deeds. Such deeds that have made him for the first time in a long time take caution. Deeds that truly made him feel afraid. Truly afraid for his life. Truly afraid that his way of life would come to an end. Warriors that have been known for the past month to attack all those that may be known as slave owners. Attack caravans holding such precious cargo much like his own freeing all those under enslavement. But to his shock they wouldn't take anything. Wouldn't take the slave owner's gold. Wouldn't take any of their possessions. No they would just free the slaves while leaving their former owners down for the count with various of injuries. These two heroes that he looks out for on this night. This nice silent summer night. A night that feels so perfect. Almost too perfect. Especially now as he travels down this dirt path with no resistance yet. With no wandering on by bystanders on the same path. Such things that have made him on high alert as he continues to look around looking for even the slightest of movement in front of him. But if he was to look up towards the sky? Well he would see a different picture. An unbelievable picture of a lone woman hovering high up in the air over the wagon keeping up with the wagon's pace. A woman whose eyes take in the situation before silently she descends downward towards the front side of the wagon before just as she is spotted with a surge of speed Wonder Woman charges forward with her sworn drawn at lightning fast speed and with a slash cuts the ropes attached to the harness of the two horse pulling the wagon instantly making them leap up in fright with their front hooves high up in the air. Makes the front end of the wagon to come crashing down with a screech in the dirt making the two drivers lurch forward with only their quick thinking of grabbing the edges preventing them from being thrown.

Landing down directly in front of the detached wagon hearing the sound of the two horses going wild retrieving her lasso with a quick whip on their behind instantly Wonder Woman sends each of the horses running before her head snaps back when she hears the sound of a pair of boots landing down on the dirt. Boots belonging to the mercenary that quickly draws his own sword. A mercenary that stares back at her with nothing but anger before with ease she side steps him when he charges forward at her with the end of his blade pointed straight ahead. A rookie mistake she makes him pay for when with little effort she kicks the blade out from his hand sending it soaring into the darkness before with a well connected punch she smashes her right hand into the mercenary's breast plate instantly denting the armor causing him to be sent soaring across the dirt trail and land hard down on his back with a thud.

Keeping her eyes focused on the downed hired gun seeing him down for the count hearing the sound of rushing footsteps coming from behind her glancing over her shoulder instantly as she sees the slave owner quickly rushing away from the wagon heading in the opposite direction with a surge of anger running through her with a twirl Wonder Woman retrieves her lasso and sends the end soaring through the air causing the lasso to wrap around the runaway man's legs dropping him face first to the ground. A man that continues to scratch and claw his way forward before with little effort she pulls him across the dirt as he kicks and screams that is heard on deaf ears. A man the moment he gets near and turns to face her makes her drive her right boot down into his chest making him gasp for breath. This deep gasp that is followed by his hands coming up to claw at her red boot that just makes her drive her heel deeper into his chest making the motion come to a stop.

" Release them."

Letting out a scream the moment he shakes his head suddenly the slave owner's screams get louder when the end of her heel drives deeper into his chest.

" You will release them or…."

Feeling the end of her boot leaving his chest just as he opens his eyes suddenly the slave owner's eyes go as wide as saucers when he sees the shine of her blade directly in front of his eyes pointing down towards his throat.

" I will kill you right here and now and take them with me. Either way whether it's by my hands or another's justice will be served."

Staring directly into the man's eyes seeing nothing but fear within them for a split moment as she sees his eyes leave her own to look back towards the wagon following his eyes instantly Wonder Woman's eyes soften slightly when she sees three young women standing just outside of the back of the wagon. Three women with tattered and dirty clothing. Three women that are shackled together by a long chain attached to their wrists and their ankles. Such a sight that would cause intense anger to radiate through her at even the sight of it but from the scared looks across their faces she couldn't allow her anger to control her. No matter how much she wants to kill this man. No matter how much she wants to rid this world of this scum she couldn't. That would be a dangerous path to walk down. A path she wasn't sure if she could escape from once taking a step in that direction. She has fought men and women like him for most of her young life. Beings that are filled with nothing but greed. Filled with nothing but this selfness to add even more power and wealth. And this man was no different. A man much like many others she has fought this past month. Men that she would often leave battered and bloodied but never dead. Never killed. She wouldn't do such a thing. She may not be in her own timeline but that doesn't mean she would change who she is.

These young ladies much like others that she has saved this past month. Saved in so many ways. Saved from enslavement. Saved their very lives and these three would be no different as she keeps her sword trained on their owner while she sends them a friendly smile.

" Go. You're free now."

Being met with looks of disbelief just as she is about to respond a small scream coming from the youngest causes her to quickly look back down towards the slave owner and immediately catch his extended wrist with a concealed knife being held firm in his hand. This sudden ambush that makes her facial features harden and for her to tighten her hold around his wrist making him scream out loudly in pain when a few pops are heard. Make the knife in his hand drop down to the dirt causing her to release her hold making him quickly cradle his right hand to his chest before he goes still when she kicks him hard in the head making his head snap to the side and his eyes close. Returning her eyes back towards the young women that stare down towards the downed man with nothing but shock riddled across their faces scheaving her sword and lasso slowly making her way over earning the women's attention reaching out as she grabs a hold of the shackle across one of the women's wrists making her flinch with a gentle smile instantly with a surge of strength Wonder Woman shatters the shackle causing the woman's eyes to go wide in disbelief as her eyes start to get watery. A gesture she repeats on each of the other women until no shackle remains on any of their wrists or feet before she rises up to her feet and nods over towards the fallen wagon.

" I suggest you take anything of value and go to the nearest village. You should be safe there."

Instantly seeing each of the women look over her shoulder knowing exactly what they are looking at with a smile Wonder Woman glances over her shoulder back towards the downed slave owner.

" Don't worry about him. I'll dispose of him far away from here. After this night he'll never bother you again. That I can promise you."

Without waiting for a response turning on her heels making her way back over towards his downed body reaching down Wonder Woman grabs a hold of his silk shirt and lifts him up to his feet before throwing him over her shoulder and ascends up into the sky making every single women behind her stare at her back in disbelief. The same look they stare at her with until she disappears out of sight.


Carving away at the stone in front of him that shines brightly putting down his makeshift blade blowing on the ends of the stone causing dust to be blown down to the cold dirt ground down below inspecting his work finding it to be acceptable very slowly Batman lowers down the ruby looking stone down into a small slot in front of him. A slot filled with numerous empty slots. His makeshift solution to their problem. If they couldn't use the original perhaps he could create something similar. That was his theory anyways. But a solution that presented him with so many different problems. Any sort of technology was no longer at his disposal. In fact no sort of technology is available to him. All except the things that he makes using what he is provided. The various metals from numerous types of chain mail armors. From the cold steels of blades and axes. From rare stones found all across this globe. And what do all of these add up to? What is in front of him now. His version of a portal. A large metal structure leaning up close against a stone wall. A steel structure forged together from melted down weapons and armors with numerous slots for stone carved amongst the structure. He just needed to figure out the key to cause each of these precious stones to combine together and create such a portal. But such a feat of success would come with risks. If he was successful there would be no telling what the portal could lead to. Could lead them further into the past or even yet centuries into the future. A chance he knew he would have to take eventually if he is ever successful in creating such a device. But for now? For now he would make do what he has right now. And speaking of making due the sound of boots landing by the entrance of the cave makes a faint smile come across his face.

If any good has come from being thrown into the past it would be this. Without being put in this predicament perhaps he and her would never have gotten together. Perhaps they would have continued to dance around each other. But thanks to all of this neither would ever have to find out. Glancing over his shoulder finding her approaching with their meal for the night or should he say nights by how large the creature over her shoulder truly is flashing her a quick smile only to have it instantly returned turning his head back towards his device reaching out Batman picks up one of his makeshift blades and starts to carve out a few symbols into the steel with the tip of the blade as he hears the sound of a thump coming from nearby.

Dropping the dear carasses down onto the ground near a roaring fire that provides the cave with its only light taking out her sword grabbing a fist full of the deceased creature's fur raising it up as she brings her blade down Wonder Woman pays a glance over her shoulder towards Batman's way.

" Any luck?"

Without stopping his motion shaking his head causing a frown to slightly come across her face that goes unnoticed moving to another section of the metal device gently Batman starts to carve another symbol into the steel.

" And you? How did things go?"

Nodding her head keeping her focus on the task after a few moments with a pleased smile across her face slowly Wonder Woman moves her blade downward.

" Another successful rescue. He won't be bothering them again."

" Them?"

Glancing over his shoulder seeing nothing but a sight that would make almost anyone lose their stomach contents seeing her nod her head slightly returning his head back forward slowly Batman inspects his work.

" Three young women. Too young but they won't have to worry about him any longer."

Looking over her shoulder seeing that she has his full attention by the way he looks at her with a stern look knowing fully well what he wants to ask giving him a smirk turning her head back forward Wonder Woman continues her task.

" I may have dropped him off in a nearby river that was heading downstream. Don't worry though. He was very much alive when I dropped him into the water."

Picturing his look of disbelief perfectly in her mind paying a quick glance over her shoulder seeing the look she is picturing across his face quickly turning away to hide the small smile that forms across her face discarding the deer's skin off to the side reaching out Wonder Woman grabs a hold of a small metallic object off from the ground.


Even after returning here so many times over this past month. Even after saving so many women from enslavement by some of the very men that stand behind some of these very stands underneath her hood she can't help but stare at them with disgust. These shopkeepers that no matter how many of them that she meets prove to be just the same as the others. Men whose eyes are filled with nothing but greed. This look that luckily for her that she wears a hood covering the scowl across her face as she walks stride in stride with her companion through these castle walls. A companion that doesn't hide his face. Doesn't wear his usual cowl. Doesn't even wear his usual Batman suit. No what he is wearing now is quite different. A suit of black armor with the carved makings of The Batman symbol across his breastplate. A look she had to admit suits him quite well. Especially without his cowl covering his face. As for her? Well she needed to hide her face. Especially from the way all of them wanted posters that are plastered across the walls with a reward too good for anyone to pass up. Much like many of the civilians all around her. Some in which are starving to death and would do anything to survive at this point.

She was thankful they would only be here within these walls for a short time. Just long enough to hopefully find the very items they are in search of. Items that they haven't found with any such luck yet as they continue to walk through the marketplace with their eyes constantly glancing around from stand to stand. Stands littered with various items. Some consist of some new and old blades fresh off the forge. Some with various fruits and vegetables. Some even with jewelry. Those were the ones they are most focused on. Not the jewelry itself but the material they are made of. But so far with every stand they visit to inspect the hardware on top each time they leave to the next stand with a hint of disappointment in their steps.

A noisy and busy atmosphere that is suddenly broken when a loud scream erupts through the marketplace. A scream followed by many others when a large shadow forms over the ground. A shadow that many look up towards only to scream and attempt to scramble away when they see a large dragon hovering high above. A dragon whose roar echoes through the air shaking the very castle walls. Cause for archers to quickly get into positions with her bows and crossbows cocked and ready to fire away. Cause for knights and guards on ground level to quickly take out their swords with many look towards the sky with hints of fear in their eyes. Some don't even do that and instead scramble away and get lost within the retreating crowds. But if anyone was paying attention to two others they would have seen a couple share a quick look before they quickly spring into action. One that throws off their cloak and takes to the skies with her sword and shield drawn while the other shoots off a line from his grapple gun up towards a castle wall.

This magnificent beast that roars loudly spraying out waves of flames from its mouth scorching the castle walls where nearby archers once were causing loud screams to echo through the air. Cause some of the more lucky archers to take cover before they start to fire away bolt and arrow alike through at the beast. Some in which merely bounce off the creature's scales. Others that land clean against the creature's skin angering the beast even more. A beast whose eyes search around for it's attackers as it circles around through the air with its tail whipping out striking against a nearby tower sending dubree downward towards cowering peasants. That is until a red and blue blur suddenly smashes into the creature's chest making the creature let out a mighty roar as it is forced back away from the castle with blazing speed towards the open fields. A blur that causes the dragon to turn his head to look down finding Wonder Woman driving him back with her sword planted firmly into its chest making its blood spray across her clothing and face. That is until she disappears when it snaps it jaw down to bite her only to hit nothing but air.

Leaping back just being missed by the dragon's teeth circling around through the air as she hears the dragon letting out a mighty roar and rear its head back instantly Wonder Woman twirls around in the air avoiding a stream of fire that comes out of the creature's open mouth. Fire that continues to flow her as she circles around the dragon with the creature trying to keep up with her movements only to be one step behind. A scene that unknown to anyone is being watched by a cloaked figure sitting in a tree on the outskirts of a nearby forest. A figure that watches the scene with nothing but interest as she twirls around a flower effortlessly through her fingers. This cloaked figure whose green hood flows freely with the wind revealing locks of red hair underneath along with a pair of red ruby colored lips. A hood that is suddenly thrown back as she leans forward with wide eyes when she sees the mighty dragon letting out another roar when a large bolt goes soaring through the middle of the dragon's left wing completely ripping the wind apart causing the dragon to dip downward from impact. An bolt coming back from the castle where a large ballista could be seen pointing outward towards the hovering dragon. A dragon's whose angry roar echoes through the air before it takes off at high speed back towards the castle with a red and blue blur in pursuit. This scene that makes her heart beat pick up and make her leap off from the tree to make a beeline for the entrance of the forest before her hands come up to her chest when she sees a lone man leap off from the tower just in time when the dragon crashes through the castle wall and with a twirl land down on top of the dragon's head driving the sword in his hands down through the top of the dragon's head.

Ignoring the ear piercing scream coming from down below him feeling his feet being taken out from underneath him holding tightly to the end of the sword through his gloves like his life is depending on it seeing a glimpse of a red and blue blur making its way quickly towards him rearing back quickly Batman grabs a hold of his grapple gun and shots it off high into the air before instantly he feels himself being pulled off from the dragon's head and twirled around through the air by Wonder Woman until he lands down onto the ground into a roll.

Letting go of the retracting line quickly raising up her shield to block a stream of fire that is blown her way by the dragon after a couple of seconds once the fire ceases with a growl instantly Wonder Woman takes off at high speed towards the dragon with her sword pointing forward. An incoming attack that draws the dragon's attention before with a twirl she changes direction circling around to the dragon's injured wing avoiding a stream of fire. A dodge that gives her an opportunity that she doesn't hesitate in slashing her sword straight through the dragon's already injured wing slicing it clean in half making the dragon roar in pain as it comes crashing down to the ground at high speed causing a large dust cloud to form around the dragon's body from impact. A dragon that withers on the ground in pain shooting up flames high up into the air at Wonder Woman as she twists and turns avoiding the flames before she closes the distance landing on top of the dragon's head and drives her boot down hard into the sword already through its head driving it downward further until the dragon's mouth closes shut with a click.

Back flipping off the dragon's head with her shield raises up in front of her keeping her eyes locked on the downed dragon's own taking a few cautious steps forward towards the creature's head seeing nothing but the dragon staring angrily at her in a sudden move leaping up high into the air with a mighty scream Wonder Woman delivers a clean slash straight through the dragon's outstretched neck separating the creature's head from the rest of its body. Retracting her sword out of the creature's hard skin taking her eyes away from the deceased creature's eyes to look over her shoulder seeing Batman approaching her giving him a small smile putting her sword away just as she takes a step forward towards him suddenly the sound of numerous hooves rushing towards them from behind makes her snap around with her sword drawn. A sword that drips with blood as numerous knights on horseback quickly approach with their weapons already drawn. So many horsemen with some staring at the downed dragon with nothing but shock while a few others circle around them with crossbows trained on them. So many knights that make Batman and Wonder Woman go back to back as they train their eyes on the knights. That is until the unthinkable happens. That is until a gust of wind flows through the air blowing numerous fallen leaves towards them. Leaves that suddenly form together before with a flash they disappear leaving only a green cloaked figure. A figure that neither has time to process before they are suddenly grabbed and with a flash they disappear along with the cloaked figure right at the moment knights pull back on the trigger of their crossbows causing bolts it hit nothing but the dirt.
