Amazon Anarchy Part 2

Wonder Woman frowned. "That's not possible."

"Actually, it is, because they're sitting right behind me." Siphon gestured to the captured Amazons.

The Amazon Princess sighed. "I'll be right up."

"Good. Hal's already on his way."

"Wonder Woman out."

Siphon sighed. It was going to be a long night.

"They are Amazons."

"Told you," Siphon muttered under his breath.

Supergirl jabbed him in the ribs. "Any idea why they'd attack us, Diana?"

"No. But I'm going to find out." With that, Wonder Woman turned to walk out.

"Just wait, Diana." J'onn grabbed her arm. "We need a plan."

"And I have one." Wonder Woman pulled her arm free.

"I'm not sure confronting Hippolyta is a good choice," Siphon interjected.

The look Diana gave him could have set him on fire. Siphon raised his hands in self defense.

"This is my business, not yours, Jamie. Please stay out."

"He does have a point though, Diana. You shouldn't be doing this on your own." Hawkgirl stepped in front of Wonder Woman.

"They are my people, Kendra."

"And we're your friends. You're not doing this on your own." Supergirl crossed her arms.

Diana sighed. "I don't have a choice, do I?"

"Nope," Kendra and Kara said in unison.

Wonder Woman sighed.

Siphon pointed a finger at her. "Don't even think about it! There's no way you can take on all of us."

The others all looked at the Amazon Princess. At that moment, Green Lantern walked in.

"Hey guys..." Hal looked at his friends. "What's going on?"

"You're not doing this on your own." Siphon's eyes narrowed. "I already got my ass kicked by one Amazon tonight. I promise you it won't happen again."

Wonder Woman smirked. "You've certainly grown into a fine warrior, Jamie, And a good friend."

Siphon crossed his arms. "Thank you."

"Kendra and Kara, you will come with me to Themyscira."

"And us?" J'onn asked.

"Keep an eye on things. If these three assassins are here, there is a good chance more are coming."

"Good to know," Siphon responded dryly.

Ten minutes after the girls left, the alert came in.

"What is it?" J'onn floated down from the higher deck.

"An entire Amazon Army..." Hal said grimly.

"Then I think we need an army of our own." Siphon grinned.

Hal and J'onn looked at their friend, puzzled.

"Which cell is Multiplex in?"

The Belle Reve guard simply stared at Siphon.

Siphon sighed and wiped his hand down his face. "I'm going to ask once more and I'll say it real slow. Which. Cell. Is. Multiplex. In?"

The guard continued to stare.

"Oh forget it!" Siphon took to the air and searched for Multiplex's biosignature.

He narrowed his search down. Multiplex's biosignature wasn't coming from a cell, but rather a break room. It wasn't the only biosignature in the room, either. A swift kick broke the lock and opened the door. Siphon's eyes narrowed as he recognized the group.

"Suicide Squad."

The team of villains turned their attention towards the new comer.

"What the hell?" Captain Boomerang looked surprised.

"Relax," Siphon said. "I need Multiplex."

Plastique folded her arms across her chest. "For what?"

"His powers. I need to borrow them."

The General stepped forward. "I don't think so."

Siphon clenched his fists. "I'm not asking for permission."

"We protect our own, Siphon, just as you do." Bronze Tiger threatened.

"Fine. But I'm not leaving without his powers."

"Wanna bet?!" General grabbed Siphon by the neck and hurled him out of the room.

Siphon slammed into the outside wall with a crunch. He'd gone straight through the room and into the hallway. He slid to the floor and shook his head to clear it. The General charged, but Siphon was too quick. He rolled out of the way before doubling back and landing a haymaker on the General.

The General flew back down the hall. Siphon wiped the blood from his lip. He saw Bronze Tiger's kick out of the corner of his eye and caught his foot. Using Bronze Tiger's momentum Siphon swung him into the wall, knocking him out.

Using Bronze Tiger's skills and the General's strength, Siphon quickly beat the rest of the Squad. Siphon dropped the unconscious form of the original Multiplex to the ground.

He stepped on the General's arm as he left Belle Reve. "You lost the bet."

Siphon met up with J'onn and Hal in San Francisco, where the Amazons were beginning their invasion.

"Sorry I'm late guys! I just had to pick something up!" With those words, Siphon began his attack.

Landing in front of the approaching army, Siphon called upon Multiplex's powers. Before his friends startled eyes, Siphon divided into an army that matched the Amazons.

"You want to attack? You gotta go through us first!" Siphon's combined voice thundered through the air .

With a combined Amazonian battle cry, the war began.

Wonder Woman, Hawkgirl, and Supergirl landed on Themyscira's beach. They were surprised to be greeted by an Amazon battalion.

"You shall not pass."

Diana's look of initial shock was matched only by her look of anger. "Artemis, what are you doing?!"

"Orders of the Queen. No one is allowed on Themyscira. Including you, Princess." Artemis pointed her sword at Diana.

Kendra swung her mace in a circle. "Wanna bet?"

"You dare challenge us?" The Amazons unsheathed their weapons.

Supergirl's eyes burned red. "Yeah, we do. Now move."

"Never."

"Then you leave us no choice!" Wonder Woman unfurled her lasso and caught Atremis' arm.

Pulling her in, Diana delivered a swift kick to Artemis' face. She twisted Artemis' arm and disarmed her before throwing her to the ground. Artemis was surprised by Diana's ferocity. Diana was very good, but usually Artemis could hold her own against the Amazon Princess. Diana dug her knee into Artemis' neck.

"Submit!" She hissed.

Meanwhile, Kendra and Kara dealt with the rest of the battalion. Kara had taken to the air and was blasting the Amazons with her heat vision. She wasn't sure if their weapons were enchanted, so she stayed out of their reach just to be sure.

Kendra just cut a path through the women with her mace. The Amazons were very good, but Kendra was better. She countered every attack, dodged every weapon. Her mace bashed and smashed as she moved across the battlefield.

Every time an Amazon seemed to gain the upper hand on Kendra, Kara would blast them from the air. The battle was over in moments.

Wonder Woman dropped a hog tied Artemis to the ground. The red headed Amazon was seething.

"You will forgive me for this later, sister." Diana picked up her lasso. "Now, what has happened? Why are the Amazons attacking Man's World?"

Artemis was compelled by the lasso to speak. "The Queen ordered the attack. She believes Man's World is a bane we have tolerated long enough, and that it is time to dispose of them."

Diana was shocked. "My mother would never-!"

"I thought the same, Princess, but she did. We are attacking Man's World now."

"We know," Kara said dryly, "the boys are holding them off as we speak."

"Then we must put an end to this." Diana untied Artemis and attached the lasso to her hip. "Do not get in our way again, Artemis."

"I will not, Princess." Artemis bowed. "You have bested me."

"Thank you sister."

With that, the trio took to the air and headed towards the palace.

San Francisco was littered with Siphon clones and Amazons. The three heroes were doing their best to contain the situation, but it was only growing. The more Amazons they defeated, the more that appeared.

"This isn't working!" Hal blasted a dozen Amazons. "They just keep coming!"

J'onn joined his teammates. "Perhaps a pen to cage them?"

"Good idea J'onn!" Siphon dashed by. "Hal! Follow my lead!"

Siphon duplicated himself further and began to use Green Lantern's energy to create a giant wall to hold back the Amazons. Green Lantern joined and soon the Amazons were penned in.

"How long can you maintain that?" J'onn questioned.

"I'm not sure," Hal answered truthfully.

"We'll hold it as long as we need to!" Siphon's determination powered the wall. "Hopefully the girls can end this soon!"

Wonder Woman, Hawkgirl and Supergirl smashed down the front gates of the Queen's palace. The sight that greeted them filled their hearts with dread.

Queen Hippolyta's eyes glowed an erie purple. Circe sat on the throne as Hippolyta bowed.

"Ah," Circe smiled, "I do believe we have guests."
