Chapter 26: Super Soldier and the Amazon Queen
Hey everyone I'm back with a new chapter, sorry about the wait. I'm glad so many people liked the surprise and now here's the answer to last chapter. I hope you like what I have planned. Please Review and Enjoy.
Needless to say Diana and Jaden were shocked by the news from Hippolyta.
"M-My father? But you always said that you sculpted me from a lump of clay." Diana said.
"Well I may have had an extra set of hands helping me." Hippolyta blushes as she looks at Steve who takes off his mask.
"I-I have a daughter?" He said surprised.
"How is this possible? When did you two meet?" Jaden asks.
"It's a long story." Steve said.
"Well I've got time." Diana nods.
"So who is this guy? Your boyfriend?" Steve asks pointing to Jaden.
"Boyfriend?" Diana blushes at the thought before shaking her head. "Don't try and change the subject. Explain."
"Well it all started during World War 2. I was fighting off against Hydra when I got word that they had gathered these strong warriors for experimentation." Steve said.
"When in actuality they had kidnapped some of my amazons. With the help of Artemis, she and I went to the Hydra Base in hope that we could rescue them in time." Hippolyta said.
Flashback:
In the war zone of Germany, we find ourselves at a heavily guarded HYDRA base. On the outskirts a young Hippolyta and a red haired amazon with a bow and arrow strapped to her back were waiting for the coast to clear, this was Artemis.
"Are you sure they're in there?" Hippolyta asks.
"I am certain my queen. The men that attacked us had that symbol on them." Artemis said.
"Then we better move fast." Hippolyta said as they waited for the right moment and then ran to the fence and leaped over it.
Little did they know on the opposite side of the base Captain America and his best friend Bucky Barnes were waiting behind some trees when some HYDRA agents on patrol walked by them.
Acting quickly, they grabbed them and yanked them into the bushes as the sounds of punches and kicks echoed before the smashing of a shield ended it.
Running across the base Captain America and Bucky stopped when they reached the building and Bucky took out his rifle.
"Alright Bucky I'll go in first and you cover me." Captain America said.
"Try not to draw too much attention Steve." Bucky smirks as they made their way inside.
As Captain America and Bucky enter through one door Hippolyta and Artemis enter through the other door.
Sneaking through the base the two soldiers enter a lab where they saw multiple chained up and unconscious amazons.
"What the?" Captain America said confused.
"Those are some tough-looking women." Bucky said as Cap made his way towards one and checks her pulse.
"They're alive but barely." He said as Bucky walks over.
"Though what's with the weird outfits? Are they some weird kind of showgirls?" Bucky asks.
"I don't know but if HYDRA is experimenting on them it can't be good." Captain America said when the door opened to reveal Hippolyta and Artemis.
"Get your hands off them!" Hippoylta said getting their attention.
"Yeah something tells me they're not showgirls." Captain America said standing up. "Look I don't know what's going on, but we're not here to hurt them. We're here to help."
"Lies! You're with them!" Hippolyta drew her sword and charges forward.
Raising his shield Captain America blocks her attacks as she pushes him back.
"I really don't want hurt you." Bucky said facing off against Artemis.
"Don't worry it'll be over quickly." Artemis said throwing a punch, but Bucky blocks and judo flips her to the ground.
"Well maybe not too quickly." He smirks as she picks herself.
"Listen we're not with HYDRA, we're trying to stop them!" Captain America said as Hippolyta continued her attack before he rammed his shield into her knocking her backwards while Artemis had pinned Bucky to the ground. "Bucky!" Throwing his shield, it knocks Artemis off him allowing Bucky to stand up.
As it flew back to him, Hippolyta kicks Captain America knocking him to the ground. Groaning Captain America looks up to see Hippolyta pointing her sword at his face.
"Now I'll say it only once. Release my amazons." She orders.
"Amazons?" He said confused.
"Hold it!" Turning to the side they saw Bucky pointing a gun at Artemis. "You drop your sword right now and step away from him or else."
"Don't do it my Queen! We need to save our sisters." Artemis said.
"Bucky wait! We don't need to do this. I don't think these ladies are our enemy." Captain America said turning to Hippolyta. "Let me show you that we're here to help. Trust me."
Hippolyta looks into his eyes and saw that he was speaking the truth and lowered her sword.
Soon Captain America was picking the locks holding the amazons and with Hippolyta, Artemis and Bucky's help they loaded into a car.
"Is that all of them?" Captain America asks.
"Yep, time to get these ladies to a doctor." Bucky said climbing into the driver's seat with Artemis right behind him.
"Why are you helping us? Even though I attacked you." Hippoylta asks.
"Do I really need a reason to help people in need?" He chuckles.
Hippolyta looks at his smiling face and for some reason she felt herself drawn to it when suddenly an alarm went off alerting all the people in the base.
"Uh we better go." Bucky said quickly.
Captain America and Hippolyta nod in agreement. As they ran to the car bullets were being fired at them.
"Bucky drive!" He yells as Bucky floored the gas and they drove ahead.
"What are you doing?! They're not with us!" Artemis said.
"Don't worry if I know my buddy he'll be right behind us!" Bucky said.
Running across the rooftops Captain America and Hippolyta were dodging bullet fire.
"What is going on here?!" Hippolyta asks.
"Where have you been the past few years that you don't know about this war?!" Captain America asks.
"Themyscria!" She said as they reached the end of the roof. "What do we do now?"
Captain America looks around and saw a rope nearby. Thinking quickly he picks it up.
"Do you trust me?" He asks offering his hand.
Not sure why but Hippolyta nods taking his hand. "Yes."
"Then hang on!" He yells as he pulls her in close as they swing off the roof.
Screaming Hippolyta held onto him for dear life as they let go of the rope and landed right on the roof of the car Bucky was driving.
"How did—" Artemis said blown away.
"Told ya." Bucky smirks as they escaped the HYDRA base.
"I don't suppose this would be an inappropriate time to ask you for your name?" Captain America asks.
"I'm Hippolyta, and who might you be?" She asks as he took off his mask to reveal his blonde hair and smiling face.
"Captain America, but you can call me Steve." He smiles.
Flashback end:
"And after that day the amazons became allies to fight against Hydra." Hippolyta said.
"It was thanks to Hippolyta and them we were able to stay one step ahead of them." Steve smiles.
"That's amazing." Jaden said blown away.
"Mom, how come I never heard this story before?" Diana asks.
"Was it because of my crash?" Steve asks and she nods.
"The scariest day of my life was when I thought I lost you. You had promised that after the war you would marry me." Hippolyta said.
"You were?" Diana asks turning her father.
"Before my last mission I had used whatever money I could get and bought Hippolyta a ring to propose with, I promised that after I stopped Red Skull I would come back for our wedding on Themyscria, but…well you know the rest." Steve sighs.
"You were frozen until Diana and I found you." Jaden finished.
"Kinda ironic that my own daughter would be the one to find me." Steve smiles.
"Well I didn't do it alone. Dad, this is Jaden." Diana introduced.
"It's an honor to meet you Cap." Jaden said holding out his hand which he returned.
"Likewise." Steve said before noticing the shield on Diana's back. "So, was it your doing for why she has that weapon?" He asks turning to Hippolyta who giggles.
"Nope she picked it all on her own. She's her father's daughter." Hippolyta said.
"I'm sorry I missed out on so much of your life Diana." Steve said.
"I'm just happy I got to know you." Diana said.
"Well you could have me in your life more often…that is if Hippolyta will take me back. Although I wouldn't blame you if you moved on." He said.
Hippolyta then reaches to her neck and pulls out a chain, wrapped around it was a wedding ring causing their eyes to widen.
"You kept it after all this time?" Steve asks.
"I never let it out of my sight since you proposed." Hippolyta smiles.
Taking the ring Steve bends down on one knee surprising Diana and Jaden.
"Hippolyta will you marry me?" Steve asks causing her to smile.
"Of course, I will." Leaning in she kisses him on the lips.
The next time they kissed was on Themyscira with all the amazons and Diana clapping for their queen and new king. Jaden was allowed to come since he had helped bring him back.
That night as Jaden was relaxing in the baths after the wedding.
"Man for a race of all female warriors they really know how to throw a wedding." Jaden sighs when suddenly he heard footsteps coming in his direction.
"Uh can I help you?" Jaden calls out when Diana walks in wearing only a towel wrapped around her body. "D-Diana?"
"Room for one more?" She smiles.
"I guess." Jaden said nervously as Diana took off her towel and climbed into the water next to him. "So how does it feel to know you're the daughter of a legend?"
"I'll admit it's something new, but I'm really glad I found him." Diana said as she scoots closer to him. "I would have enjoyed it if I could dance with you at the party."
"I would have too but some of your friends were glaring at me and it made me nervous." Jaden admits causing Diana to giggle.
"Hey Jaden, you remember back in the artic when we you know?"
"Yeah I remember." Jaden said.
"And how I thought we were gonna die and I confessed to you." Diana blushes. "You never said how you felt about me. J-Jaden, do you like me?"
Jaden looks to see Diana lean in close to him to hear his answer.
"Diana, you are amazing. I-I do like you, I like you a lot." Jaden said causing Diana to lean in and kiss him on the lips.
As the two of them made out Diana sits in his lap and wraps her legs around him refusing to let go.
This wedding day had quite the aftermath but not just for the bride and groom.
Soon they were back at Super Hero High, as Spider-Man made his way to Principal Waller's office where inside Principal Waller was sitting down with Nick Fury on screen and Phil Coleson standing next to her.
"Uh am I in trouble?" Spider-Man asks.
"Spider-Man as you know you are the only student here who is part of the Avenger Initiative. With Captain America back we want to make the Avengers an official team." Phil said.
"Really? Sweet so what does that mean you're gonna recruit more members?" Spider-Man asks.
"No, you are." Fury said surprising him.
"We would like for you to build the team from students you can trust to fight alongside. S.H.I.E.L.D has been generous to bring in some teachers to train you and your choices to help prepare them." Waller said.
"You mean like agents?" Spider-Man asks.
"Nope we mean experienced Avengers like Captain America." Fury said.
"But Cap is on his honeymoon right now, who's gonna train us while he's away?" Jaden asks.
"That would be me." Turning around Jaden saw man with black hair, glasses, a mustache, a goatee and a business suit. This was Tony Stark, CEO of Stark Industries. "So you're the famous Spiderling? Crime fighting Spider? You're Spider-Boy?"
"Spider-Man." He corrects as Tony brings up a video on his phone of Spider-Man swinging from webs and fighting criminals.
"Wow look at you go. I can see why Fury has an interest in you." Tony said sitting down next to him. "Hey Amanda, still looking fine as hell."
"I'm also still married." Waller narrows her eyes.
"For now." Tony shrugs.
"So uh Mr. Stark, you're an Avenger?" Spider-Man asks.
"In a way, but you can call me by my other name…I am Iron Man."
