Athena and Aphrodite continued to hold hands as they walked into the throne room of the father of the Gods. Zeus was seated in his regal chair, golden, lightning bolts adorning the top of the piece. He sat back, pensively grabbing the arms of his seat. He made no sound, as he simply watched the 3 gods enter and nod reverently to his position. He shifted, and stroked his beard, apparently deep in thought.
He sat forward and his deep voice resounded in the room, "Who is going to explain why I watched as two of you became physically engaged in battle this day?"
Ares coughed as instantly he was being glared at by the women in the room. "It was a misunderstanding between Athena and me."
Athena snarled, "Misunderstanding?"
Ares backpedaled on his statement. "Well, really a miscommunication."
"You sorry sack of…"
Zeus interrupted, "Enough! Someone tell me why all three of you were seen interfering in the war in Kasnia."
Aphrodite muttered, "He started it. Athena finished it. Didn't she Ares?" The Goddess of Love sneered at her brother.
"Cram it Aphrodite. She got lucky."
"Lucky? You got your ass handed to you. Again. I can't wait to spread that one around."
"Aphrodite…" Zeus' tone carried a heavy warning.
The Goddess of Love turned her attention back to Zeus. "He incited this nonsense in Kasnia and Ruritania. He decided to physically show himself and attacked a human. We got involved at that point."
Zeus chided. "You were involved well before that. Don't think I don't know what all three of you have been doing. I had hoped that cooler heads would prevail, but clearly I gave you all far too much credit. You have been expressly warned to never interfere and all three of you broke that commandment. I want to know why. And this better be damn good."
Athena stepped forward. "I take all responsibility for my actions and Aphrodite's. I saw what he was doing, and decided to lend assistance to the Amazons."
"And why is that?"
"They are faithful followers of Hera's. In this modern world, we have few left who still hold to our worship. They are the last of their kind. It would be a travesty to allow them to come to annihilation simply to satisfy my brother's lust for war."
Zeus glared at Athena, who for her part stood tall and unwavering. "So you are telling me that you did this for Hera?"
"Liar," Ares mumbled. "She is screwing one of the Amazons."
Athena gritted, "Speak ill or disrespectfully of Alindra again, and I will make sure they are your last words."
Zeus was shocked at the statement Ares had made. For her entire existence, Athena was the paragon of purity. "Am I hearing this correctly Athena? You interfered on behalf of someone you are romantically involved with?"
"I am no longer involved with her. Ares saw to that."
"What?" The God of War barked. "I didn't even know who she was."
Athena's anger began to boil. "Because of you, and these damn rules, I didn't warn her that you were involved. She figured it out on her own. And she promptly revoked the gifts I had given her, as well as ended our relationship."
Zeus nodded. "Good. Nothing can come of a relationship with a human anyways. Nothing but bastard children. It is best that it is over."
"NO!" Athena railed. "I tried to comply with your rules, and I tried to be honorable, and look where it got me. She was right to be angry with me. I chose you and this house over her. That should never have happened, and it will not happen again."
Zeus stood and took a step towards Athena. "Did you just threaten me?"
"I am merely stating that anyone or anything that threatens her will be met with harsh punishment. And while I mean no disrespect to you Zeus, I will not hesitate to protect her."
Zeus threw his hands in the air, "This is ridiculous! She is a human!"
"She is the woman that I love!"
"And you are a Goddess! It will not work. Athena, I understand that humans catch our eyes from time to time, but there is an imbalance present in any type of relationship that we may pursue with them. They cannot comprehend what we truly are, and what we are capable of. They are not on our level."
Aphrodite spoke up, "You underestimate them, and her. No one knows what true love is until they experience it. Surely millennia of chastity and purity count for something. Athena is wise and would not break those vows lightly. How can you argue with the logic in that?"
Zeus spat, "This woman that you both seem to hold in high esteem rejected Athena, did she not?"
Aphrodite shot back, "That is not what this is about."
"Hold your tongue Aphrodite! When did you and your sister suddenly start defending each other? What is happening in this house?"
Aphrodite squeezed her sister's hand. "I love Athena. I admire her. She was placed in a terrible position, and I would and will defend her reasons. Ares started this mess. He is the one who went after war in Kasnia. He is the one who craved blood so much that he vicariously toyed with the humans we are supposed to watch over. He is the one who has put you in this position, not Athena, or I."
Zeus was shocked. "Aphrodite you defy me too?"
"If I have to. There is only one person to blame, and he is still creeping in the shadows as always." She turned to Ares, "You are a coward. At least Athena is honorable in her intentions. The same cannot be said for you."
Instantly a lightning bolt appeared in Zeus's hand and the two Goddess' took defensive stances. Just as he raised his hand in anger, another godly presence was felt. Hera appeared in a flash and was standing, eyes glaring, at her husband. "Put that away."
Zeus spat, "This is unconscionable."
Hera remained unmoved. "Put it away. You and I will speak independently of these three."
Zeus's jawline tightened. His cheeks flexed in anger, but he dropped his hand. "You three will wait in the hall. You are not to go ANYWHERE. Are we clear?"
Athena and Aphrodite relaxed and nodded. Ares grunted his response. The three exited through the door into the hall to await their fates.
Once they were gone, Hera started in. "You are my husband and the supreme head of the gods, but you are not acting accordingly. Your son stuck his large nose into business that was not his. He did so for no other reason other than he likes to stir up trouble. And I want you to think about something very carefully. If you punish Ares, Athena, and Aphrodite, then you better be prepared to punish Poseidon and Hephaestus as well."
"Poseidon and Hephaestus?"
"Poseidon gave safe passage to the Amazons, and Hephaestus forged the weapons they wielded. And before you argue that Athena made them, keep in mind what you have done in the past for the women you have had affairs with. You destroyed the kingdom of Argos as punishment for Dannae's father's mistreatment. Trouble you directly landed her in. And I know you have interfered multiple other times. You ask your children to hold fast to your rules, yet you constantly break them. How can you hold them to a higher standard than what you yourself actually are holding yourself to? Athena protected the woman she has fallen in love with. And think hard about that. When have you ever known her to be flighty with her emotions?"
Reluctantly, Zeus admitted, "Never."
"Exactly. And I will tell you that you better be prepared to punish me as well if you pursue this nonsensical course of action. Those Amazons belong to me. Had Athena and Aphrodite not done what they did, I was on the verge of interfering myself. We have tolerated Ares' behavior for far too long, and look where it has landed us today. He didn't even fight himself. He sent Deimos and Phobos after Alindra. How is that even a fair fight? Athena merely evened the odds."
"And Aphrodite?"
"Husband, look at her. She stands with Athena. Those two have never really seen eye to eye, and as much as they have bickered in the past, they have grown close as siblings should. Athena is a good influence on her. For Aphrodite to be willing to get involved speaks volumes. So, make your decision, but carefully think about the ramifications of what it will bring. I know you are wise. You did not become what you are by being otherwise. Let this go with Athena and Aphrodite. It is punishment enough that Athena has lost her love because of us. Even that is too high of a price to pay."
Zeus sat down on his throne again, and carefully weighed his wife's words. "This Amazon that Athena loves, is she worthy?"
"She is. By all that I know to be true, Alindra loves Athena. It is real, and it is pure, and it is beautiful. If there is any chance that this can be fixed, Athena should be given the opportunity. She has never once in her existence been a thorn in your side. Quite the opposite. She has held steadfast to what you have commanded, and has been eternally loyal. Do not punish her further for being in love."
"And Ares?"
"I will not stand here and defend him. He is what he is, and we have known all along. It was a matter of time before he did something to cross Athena again."
"They cannot be allowed to get away with happened today."
"Then yell, rage, threaten, but do not punish the girls."
Zeus quirked his eyebrow, "The girls?"
Hera smiled, "Yes. That is how you see them don't you? Your girls?"
Zeus chuckled, "Yes. I am only harsh to keep them from repeating my mistakes. But they are so stubborn. Especially Aphrodite."
Hera openly laughed, "She has been a handful since day one. But her intentions lately have been pure."
"Athena has been good for her."
"They have been good for each other. I pray it never changes."
"There is no other goddess that could give such good counsel. Very well. Bring them back in."
Hera swung her hand and the door opened again. As Ares walked back in, he was sporting a fresh black eye. Zeus looked at his son, "What happened?"
The God of War shifted nervously on his feet, "I- I wasn't paying attention and I walked into one of the marble statues."
Zeus looked at his daughters. Aphrodite was smiling smugly. Athena was trying hard to suppress a grin. The father of the Gods sighed, "Which one of you hit him?"
Aphrodite laughed out loud. "Define hit."
"Ares?"
"Neither. I was clumsy."
Athena nodded, "A most unfortunate accident. He should really pay attention to his surroundings."
Zeus felt his stress levels raise a little once more. "No more fighting. Ares, you will take money from your eternal coffers and you will donate a substantial sum to the relief efforts in Kasnia. And in the future you will not engage in anything that could potentially involve the Amazon nation. As you know, Hera is the patron goddess and by extension they will be afforded my protection if needed. Are we clear?"
Ares dropped his head, "Yes."
"And when I tell you substantial, I mean you better foot the bill on this one."
"I understand."
"Good. Leave. Stay away from your sisters, and Ares, I don't think I need to warn you that no harm should come to Alindra by your hand, or by anyone you would consider influencing. In fact, her safety should be a priority for you. Never give Athena cause again to act in retaliation. Next time, I will let her cleave your head."
Ares bowed, and disappeared.
Zeus turned his attention to his daughters. "You two have become quite the pair. I confess that I am worried as to who will influence who here. However, I am pleased that you have become close, although this is not how I would have had it happen. You may leave, but I am issuing you a stern warning. If for any reason you should feel that interference will be needed in the future, you will come and find me. And Athena, the human you have fallen in love with, this Alindra woman, you are not to go to her unless she specifically calls for you. If she has rejected your gifts, and your attentions, you will leave her be. Do you understand?"
Athena was solemn. "I do."
Zeus approached the pair. He leaned in and whispered, "Who hit him?"
Athena and Aphrodite looked at each other and then shrugged. "Sorry father," Athena spoke, "I have no idea what you are talking about."
Zeus looked between the two, and rubbed the bridge of his nose. "This is done now. No more black eyes."
Athena and Aphrodite bowed and disappeared. Hera moved close to her husband. "For what it is worth, I believe you handled that well."
"You are humoring me."
"It is what a wife does."
"Do you think that Alindra will call for Athena?"
"I don't know. She was hurt. She may decide that she doesn't want any part of this craziness."
"Then I am glad Athena will have Aphrodite. And now if you will forgive me, I have business to attend to."
Zeus leaned in and kissed his wife's cheek, leaving her wondering exactly what business he was referring to.
It was three days before Di was up and moving around again on her own. She had insisted that she was fine the very next day, but the doctors, with Diana standing behind them, had managed to keep her in bed.
The Amazons had seen to their dead by way of a large pyre. The mood had been somber, but Diana felt pride at the sight of Kasnians kneeling around the fire, the chaplains and local priests leading prayers for those women who had sacrificed themselves for their nation. General Urbov had offered remarks on their bravery, and Apanasenko and Lebedev had joined him. In Kasnia, the Amazons had earned an eternally faithful ally. As the days stretched on, the bulk of the women returned to their island home, leaving a very small party to march into the capital triumphantly. Artemis and Alindra had taken charge of the horses of Ruritania, teaching them to bow on command. Shayera had continued to nurse her injured wing, with Diana constantly at her side. Diana had been tender, wrapping fresh bandages every night, and closely monitoring the wound, keeping a close eye for infection. Shayera didn't complain, as she enjoyed the attention and Diana was persistent in her insistence at making sure Shayera was alright.
In the capital, Audrey had been busy preparing celebration arrangements for when the parade of the victorious armies would occur. She had been put off by Diana and General Urbov several times when she had asked to speak with Di. They had told her she was busy tending to business and would be in touch soon. But Di never called, and Audrey was beginning to worry. But the time to reflect on the situation was limited as Queen Hippolyta arrived in the capital the very morning that the armies were expected to enter the city.
Audrey paced her room. She looked all through her closet, and struggled to find something appropriate to wear. A soft knock shook her from her thoughts.
"Enter."
Silently, Helena came into the room with Dinah in tow. "Queen Audrey," she smiled, "Diana has made excellent timing, and will be here with the others by mid-afternoon. Queen Hippolyta has also recently just arrived and is seeking an audience."
"Please, bring her in immediately. Thank you."
Within moments Helena returned with the other sovereign and the two women were left alone. Audrey smiled brightly and hugged the Queen of the Amazons with fervor.
"Hippolyta, thank you. For everything you have done, and for what your sisters have sacrificed, I will never be able to express proper gratitude."
"Audrey, you have given new hope to my sisters. Several are now pregnant, and some have already given birth. I cannot express what that has meant to us. It has been so long since we were able to enjoy the pitter patter of little feet. Now we will be able to repopulate, and the women will get to experience the joys of motherhood."
"And perhaps you will be enjoying being a grandmother soon as well?"
Hippolyta smiled. "I hope so. I think that Diana and Shayera will make excellent parents."
Audrey laughed, "There has already been some discussion. But, if you would not mind, I would actually like to discuss a different matter with you. The events here have changed my outlook on a lot of things, and specifically my personal life. I do not know how to approach this subject gently, so I will just be blunt. I am going to continue to proceed with democratic reforms here in Kasnia. How far they will go will depend on the people. While I do love being their Queen, I am lonely in this palace in this role."
"You are dating my daughter are you not?"
"I-I think so. I hope so. Di is wonderful, and I would like the opportunity to see where things lead to. I wanted to give you my personal assurance that this does not change the relationship with you or with Themiscyra. The majority of the technological advances have been done with my families' patents. What I am saying is that I will personally continue to lend aide to you and your sisters regardless of my position within this government."
"You are considering abdication?"
"Not immediately. But yes, ultimately I am. You and I both know that I married for political gain. I now have a son who can inherit what I have built, and will continue to build. But I am seriously pondering what I want my future to be as well. Your daughter does play into that decision. It is still early, and even if it does not work out, I do not want to be bound to a loveless marriage. I have things that I need to make right. Regardless of what happens with Di, I will be divorcing Dmitri, and it will be done as soon as the rebuilding begins, and assuming his recovery as well. I will name him Prince-Regent and he will oversee the government in my place until Dane is ready to ascend, or until a true democracy is in place. I wish to avoid scandal, but I cannot continue with this sham. Dmitri is in love, and I want him to have a chance at true happiness as well."
Hippolyta nodded, "You have grown so much in these past few years. I wish you success. Both with your plans, and with my daughter. Which, by the way, I will need to speak to her, but it is my wish to make sure her place is secured on Themiscyra as well. Technically she is not my Diana, but in my heart she is. When we return to the island, I will ask her to allow me to make it official. I will adopt her as my own. For all intents and purposes, she already is. Perhaps," Hippolyta chuckled, "Shayera and Diana are not the only ones who could give me grandchildren."
Audrey blushed, "We aren't that far yet, but if she wanted to, then I think we would. I would be honored to be counted as family to you."
"You already are. But it never hurts to increase my chances does it?"
Audrey laughed. "No I guess it doesn't. I-I am grateful to have your blessing to pursue her. She is special, and I promise that I will cherish her for as long as she will let me. And speaking of which, I am trying to figure out what I should wear for the parade. Perhaps this is not something I should say, but I am giddy to be seeing her again soon."
Hippolyta pondered the thought, and then asked, "Can you really tell the difference between them? If they stood before you with the exact expression and clothes, would you know who was who?"
"Yes. And I imagine Shayera could do the same thing. They are identical, and yet they aren't."
Hippolyta chuckled, "Shayera…I love that Diana found her. What a brash spirit. She is quite the woman. As are you. My girls have done well for themselves."
Alindra, Artemis, and Shayera stood impatiently waiting outside the capital. Each was garbed in the traditional white and gold of Hippolyta's house. All three were waiting on Di and Diana.
Alindra laughed, "Shayera, what is taking your wife and her sister so damn long to get ready?"
"They were arguing about their clothes. Apparently they have the exact same outfit, and are squabbling about the whole thing." Shayera answered looking around for the other two women. And just as the thought was uttered, the two Diana's approached wearing the exact same thing, and wearing the exact same expression on their faces. They stopped within a few feet and stood waiting to be acknowledged.
Artemis leaned over to Alindra and whispered, "Do you know which is which?"
The blonde shrugged, "I have no idea. I sure hope Shayera does."
Shayera arched her eyebrow, "Really? Is this a test?"
Neither Diana said anything.
"Fine." Shayera smiled and walked over to the women. She looked to the left woman, and then to the right. She licked her lips and walked in front of the woman on the right. "Diana, kiss me, right now, in front of everyone."
She was met with a lascivious grin, and Diana grabbed her face and pressed her lips to her wife's.
Di laughed, "That is still disgusting to see. You two are obnoxious. But if you can pull yourself apart, I really want to know how Shayera knew who was who."
In between small affections, Shayera chuckled. "Diana is stunning, and I would know those brea-"
Di interjected, "We look exactly the same, and yet she is stunning?"
Shayera looked into Diana's eyes. "She is."
"And I am?"
"Passable I guess."
Diana laughed out loud, and Shayera was rewarded with another kiss. Di smirked, "And you were going to say something about her breasts?"
Shayera pulled back slightly, openly ogling Diana's chest. "I was going to say that I would know them anywhere."
Di looked down at her chest. "There's no difference."
"Yes there is. Diana's chest is spectacular."
"That is disgusting too. Thank the gods you knew who was who."
Diana wrapped an arm around Shayera's back, being mindful of her injured wing. "I told you she would know who was who. Audrey will too. You are being silly."
Di shrugged, "Alindra, is there something wrong with my chest?"
The blonde general nearly gagged on her response, "N-No?"
"Is that a question?"
"Princesses, with all due respect, I cannot tell the difference, nor will I study anyone's assets to figure it out either."
Artemis laughed at Alindra's response. "Very politically correct of you."
"And you would have said what Artemis?" Diana teased.
"I would have said that neither set are all that impressive. And hence the reason I cannot tell the difference either."
"Well damn Artemis. Tell us how you really feel."
"Princesses, nothing compares to Clio. I simply speak the truth."
Alindra rolled her eyes. "Love Clio, kiss Clio. Clio, Clio, Clio. Who are you?"
Artemis narrowed her eyes playfully, "Just because you pulled off the double envelopment, doesn't mean you get to tease me eternally. I will one up you."
Alindra smiled, and grabbed the other general's hand. "Come on, the quicker we enter the city and present the horses, the quicker you can go home to Clio and Antigone."
Artemis smiled. "True. Did I mention how perfect Antigone is?"
"About a million damn times."
Queen Audrey and Queen Hippolyta waited on the steps of the parliament as the parade progressed through the center of the city. The people had come out in droves and lined the streets singing, laughing, and sharing in the joy of victory with the small company of soldiers and Amazons that progressed slowly. Once they reached the parliament steps, Alindra and Artemis brought the horses forward. She and Alindra kneeled and the horses followed suit. Artemis stood, and presented a black stallion that had once belonged to General Zavtiolov to Queen Hippolyta. "My queen, a gift from Ruritania. A promise from the country that you will never be bothered by them, or their citizens. And for the Queen of Kasnia, the remaining eight, and the same promise made."
Hippolyta smiled, and nodded. Artemis and Alindra moved the horses to the side and waited as the two Diana's stepped forward. Hippolyta looked at Audrey, and the blonde queen walked up to the Diana on the right. "Princess Diana, you and your sisters were fearless. Kasnia, and I are forever grateful." She kissed each of Diana's cheeks, and turned her attention to the left.
She studied the woman in front of her. Then she leaned in and whispered, "Di, my personal protector, I wish that I could give you the kiss that I want to right now. I promise the moment I have you alone I will make it up to you." She kissed each cheek as she had done with Diana, and when she pulled back she winked. Di was elated. Audrey had known who she was without one word.
Diana leaned over to her twin. "I told you. It's because your ass is wider. I said it once, I will say it again."
Di smiled, and through gritted teeth teased, "Keep it up Diana. I will embarrass you in front of our mother."
"Keep overeating and our mother will be embarrassed."
Hippolyta shook her head at her daughters. "My children. I am so happy to see you both. You have brought honor to our nation, and I am proud of you both."
She stepped in between the two and wrapped her arms around each of their necks. They huddled in and returned the affection. Stepping back, she looked for Shayera who had worked her way to Alindra. Taking a few strides down the steps, she approached the redhead and hugged her as well. "Shayera, thank you. You are just as much a part of this victory as anyone."
"You are welcome. It was my honor to serve your interests as your daughter-in-law."
"Perhaps I can convince you to serve my interests once more?"
Shayera nodded. "Of course."
"I want grandchildren."
Shayera blushed and stammered, "Q-Queen Hippolyta, I-"
Diana crossed over, as Di stood still laughing. Diana, with a stressed look on her face, pulled her mother away, "Perhaps we can discuss this later please?"
Hippolyta nodded and then looked at Di who was still laughing. "I am not sure what you find so funny. I expect you to do the same."
Di instantly stopped laughing, her face displaying shock. "M-Mother…"
Hippolyta laughed, and raised her eyebrow. "I am not going to be told no by either of you." She turned to Alindra and Artemis, "I am still the Queen correct?"
Artemis and Alindra chuckled at the twin's uncomfortable looks. They both nodded, and in unison replied, "Of course Your Majesty."
Di and Diana looked at the two generals. "Traitors…" they both mumbled.
As the group continued the revelry on the steps, General Urbov took the opportunity to introduce himself to Queen Hippolyta and the two struck up a fast friendship. General Apanasenko corralled Shayera into taking several pictures with him, and although he hesitated at first, he worked up the courage to ask for her autograph. Shayera chuckled, but complied. He was harmless, and she was happy to acquiesce to the request. General Lebedev lingered next to Alindra and Artemis who regaled the fellow general with the story of how the Ruritanians were turned away. When she got to the part about the arrow, Lebedev's eyes went wide.
"Seriously, General Lebedev, it is easy to do. Here, let me show you." She placed her hand against his chest, and he scrambled as quickly as he could behind Alindra. Alindra rolled her eyes and playfully admonished her companion.
"Artemis, really?"
The redhead laughed. "What? He didn't seem to believe me."
Lebedev peered over Alindra's shoulder. "I believe you! I believe you!"
Illiana eventually brought Dane out and he scrambled instantly to his mother's side. She scooped him up and gave him a big kiss. He wrapped his little arms around her neck and squeezed as tight as he could. Audrey laughed though as she was quickly forgotten the moment her son spied Shayera nearby. He ran over to her and hugged her leg. "Angel," he sighed. "Fly?"
Shayera looked pained. "I am sorry little man. I can't fly right now. I promise as soon as I am better I will take you for a ride."
The little boy's face dropped. Di walked over and squatted down. "I know that I don't have wings like Shayera, but I can fly as well. Would you like me to take you for a ride?" She extended her hand and held her breath.
Instantly, Dane's face lit up and he threw himself into her arms. Di laughed. "I guess that is a yes. Ready?"
"GO HIGH!"
Di looked to Audrey. "Is this okay?"
"Of course. Have fun. Dane, hold on tightly please."
Di smiled at Audrey's son. "You want to go high? How about fast?"
The only answer she got in return was a squeal of delight. She hugged him tightly to her body, and kicked off the ground. She moved quickly through the air, and couldn't help the smile that reached her face as she heard him giggle and howl as she maneuvered around the city. She took him over buildings, and let him reach out to touch the tops of trees. They circled for several minutes. Hippolyta took the opportunity to make her way to Diana. "Think about how much fun that will be for my granddaughters."
Before she knew what she was doing, Diana nodded. "It will be."
And in another part of Kasnia, Superman was doing his own flying. He touched down at Fastad, setting Helena down with him. It took very little time for her to find Peter and his mother.
At the site of Superman approaching, Peter screamed, "Look! It's Superman!"
Very quickly, Superman was surrounded by adoring children and their families. He shook hands, played with children, and Helena stood by the side enjoying what she was seeing. Peter was doing his impression of Superman for his hero, and the dark-haired superhero laughed.
"Very good Peter. I almost believed that I was looking at myself just then. But, there is something that isn't quite right. Hmmm…what is it? Ah, I know." And he reached behind his back and removed his cape. He fastened it around Peter's neck and took a step back. "That was it. You just needed the cape. Now let's see it."
Peter pushed his hands out and zoomed around Superman and the other children who were now all chasing him. He turned and zagged around people and ran up to Helena. He hugged her waist and sighed, "Thank you."
Helena's eyes teared up a little and she returned the affection. "You are welcome. I will see you in the League one day Peter."
Peter reached into his pocket. He drew the boomerang he had been given and presented it to Helena. "Here, this is yours."
Helena shook her head, "No. Keep it. In case the flying thing doesn't work out, you will have something to fall back on."
"You are the coolest!"
"Cooler than Superman?"
Peter looked at Helena like she was crazy. He ran away and began zooming around again. Helena mumbled, "Well, Dinah thinks I am."
A/N:Hmmm...So Alindra has to call for Athena, Hera is in charge in a round-a-bout way, Hippolyta is demanding grandchildren, Audrey and Shayera know their women, and Dane loves to fly (but I think we knew that.) And let's not forget that Superman is, well, the man. But Helena is still a favorite. (And which one of them actually hit Ares?) We are nearing the end of this. Maybe only 2-3 chapters left. I have a couple of things left for you, but is there something that you simply must have before this story ends? Thank you for all the reviews...you guys have really made this a rewarding experience.
