Shout Outs-
Aaron- Geez man. How do you keep up with my stuff if you don't have an ffnet account? Oh yeah, Artemis is a badass all right. If you think Diana having a sense of humour is freaky, just wait until you see what happens in the next chapter with the Joker… And yes, Silver Swan will be making an appearance.
Icha- Thanks for reviewing. I only hope that my Wonder Woman stuff is as great as yours.
Sean Malloy-1- Geez, you won't let up with me giving back Diana the Wonder Woman name, will you? Heh.
Thanks to- Dez Howlett, todd fan.
New York-
The redheaded Amazon known as Artemis, or the new Wonder Woman to the general public, was fighting for her life against the remainders of the Vietnamese slave ring she had busted up mere minutes earlier. The girls had already made their escape. Now all that was left for Artemis were the ringleaders of the gang.
Artemis swooped down on one gun-toting scumbag and grabbed his hand, swiftly snapping his wrist. She then tossed him over the shoulder, sending him sailing through the air heading towards a stack of broken pallets and a shard that pointed outwards, prepared to impale him.
The scumbag never ended up getting skewered as a bright green catcher's mitt caught him just in time.
'Who dares…?' Artemis hissed as she dealt with the last of the scumbags. 'I am here on important business. I have no time for a… team-up, or however you people put it.'
'We're not here for a team-up.' The African-American Green Lantern known as John Stewart explained as he floated to the ground, Shayera with him. 'We just wanted to come and say hi.'
'And commend you on your good work.' Shayera Hol (formerly known as Hawkgirl) added with a nod. 'You really did a job on these thugs.'
'Is that all?' Artemis blinked, not impressed in the least. 'I do not have time for petty gossip. There are more men like these spoiling Mother Earth like a cancer. It gets worse every day, and I am the one to stop it.'
'O-kaaaay…' John blinked. 'Not that I want to rain on your parade or anything but… arrogance really isn't the way to work through this. You're trying too hard, too fast.'
The dark man in green was really starting to annoy Artemis. The Amazon regarded him with a steely gaze.
'And what right do you have to instruct me, little man?' Artemis growled. 'I have been chosen to bring the Amazon's way of life into Man's World, and nobody will stop me from doing so.'
'I'm as much into girl power as the next woman…' Shayera tried to calm down the hot-tempered redheaded Amazon. 'But geez, step back a notch. Not even Diana was this radical.'
'And that is precisely why Diana is no longer Wonder Woman.' Artemis sniffed. 'Now, I wish to take my leave of this horrid city. If you continue to bar my way, I will be forced to resort to more drastic measures to get you out of my way.'
'Fine.' John shrugged as he waved Artemis along. 'Go on your way. Just remember one thing, New York isn't just your town. Other heroes live here as well.'
'John, she's gone.' Shayera whispered.
'Only in Man's World for a fortnight and she's already doing the Batman Disappearing Thing.' John sniffed. 'I'm just glad that we didn't let her take over Diana's spot in the League.'
'But we still let her join.' Shayera reminded. 'Just what we need, another loose cannon. She'd get on great with Huntress.'
Diana's place: The next morning-
Diana groaned sleepily as she felt the sun's rays warming her face.
'Mmm, sleepy…' The Amazon mumbled as she felt the warm skin beneath her.
Diana blinked for a moment. What was she doing with a naked man in her bed?
'Morning.' The aforementioned naked man smiled gently. 'Pleasant night?'
'I think so, Bruce' Diana mumbled, rubbing her bleary eyes. 'I don't know why I can't remember though. I rarely drink nowadays.'
'Was I really that bad?' Bruce Wayne teased. 'I'm hurt.'
'Oh shush.' Diana rolled her eyes as she gently swatted Bruce on the chest. 'Can't we just lay back and enjoy the morning sun on our bodies?'
'Only if we want to get arrested for indecent exposure.' Bruce commented.
'Oh, ha-ha.' Diana groaned as she reluctantly got up out of bed. 'Now if you'll excuse me, I'm going to have a shower.'
'Just call me if you need any help washing your back.' Bruce called.
'Trust me, I will.' Diana called back.
With Diana busy with her shower, Bruce decided to get up as well and began to pull on his 'work clothes' when somebody walked in the door.
'Hey Diana, me and B're gonna head off soon. D'you want some brea… Oh my…'
Diana's younger sister, Donna, stopped mid-sentence as she saw the naked man in her sister's bedroom.
Bruce just looked back at the young Amazon with an unreadable face.
'You must be Donna.' Bruce deduced. 'I would get up to shake your hand but… I'm a little indisposed. As you can see.'
'Yeah. I kind of got that…' Donna snickered as she swiftly averted her eyes. Heh-heh. Diana had such a great taste in men. What a specimen. Whoof!
'You must be the Dark Knight that I've heard so much about.' Donna remembered as she looked up at the ceiling.
'What makes you say that?' Bruce queried as he pulled on some underwear.
'The Bat cowl thrown over the bedpost is a bit of a giveaway.' Donna explained. 'And you might want to have those rope burns seen to. They look nasty.'
Bruce looked down at his wrists. They were red from the recreational use of Diana's golden lasso. Well, actually it was Donna's lasso. Diana had just 'borrowed' it for the evening.
'Your sister certainly has a healthy appetite.' Bruce commented.
'Uch. I know.' Donna shivered. 'It's disturbing.'
'What is disturbing?' Diana asked as she dried her hair. 'Donna!' Diana yelped. 'What are you doing here?'
'I came up to offer your breakfast.' Donna snickered. 'But I guess you two are busy right now. There's toast and marmalade downstairs if you need it.'
Diana just blinked in surprise as Donna turned around and headed out of the room.
'Sometimes I think that the Gods enjoy messing around with my life like this.' Diana sighed as she tossed her towel onto a chair. 'First I lose the mantle of Wonder Woman…'
Bruce stood up and took Diana's hands in his.
'Diana, listen to me…' Bruce said, as he looked the Amazon right in the eyes. 'There is more to you than Wonder Woman. Surely you won't stop your environmental work just because you lost a contest. The world needs you Diana, Wonder Woman or not.'
'You're sweet to say so, Bruce.' Diana smiled as she gently stroked Bruce's face. 'Hera be blessed for dropping you in my lap.'
Steel City: Later-
Aqualad was lying back in the rooftop pool watching the sky above his head.
The young hero had grown bored of bickering with his fellow Titan, the young archer known as Speedy, so he decided to engage in his favourite activity. There was nothing Aqualad liked more than relaxing in the pool. One of the pleasures of being Atlantean, he guessed.
Aqualad sighed happily as he closed his eyes and let himself sink into the water.
Aqualad's peace wasn't to last as he heard a plane overhead. Whereas having planes flying overhead wouldn't necessary cause one concern, this particular plane bothered Aqualad quite a bit as it was invisible.
Aqualad popped his head out of the water as the downdraft from the plane caused a deckchair to come flying across the roof, narrowly avoiding his head.
'Oh, for Neptune's sake!' Aqualad hissed as he climbed out of the pool and grabbed a towel.
'Hello?' Aqualad called to the invisible visitors. 'This isn't a private airstrip. Go away!'
Aqualad blinked in surprise as a disembodied head appeared.
'Umm… hi?' The raven-haired head smiled sheepishly. 'I believe we're expected? We're here for the photo-shoot.'
'Oh right.' Aqualad nodded. 'Wonder Woman's sister.'
'She's just called Diana now.' Donna explained as she climbed out of her sister's invisible plane.
'Can I smell fish-sticks?' Cheetah blinked as she followed Donna out of the plane. 'Oh. It's just Aqua-Boy.'
'Aqualad!' Aqualad corrected. 'Not boy, lad!'
'Whatever you say, fish-face.' Cheetah shrugged. 'How about we get this show started? Donna? Hey Donna, you with us?'
Donna didn't answer the former villain as she was mesmerised by the appearance of a newly arrived figure. A figure with short red hair and a black eye mask.
'Homina-blubble-bloo…'
'You must be Donna.' The young archer known as Speedy smirked as he stepped up and shook Donna's hand. 'It's a pleasure to meet somebody actually related to a Justice Leaguer.'
'Hey!' Aqualad hissed. 'I'm Aquaman's adopted son!'
'But you're not an attractive young lady, are you?' Speedy responded 'Anyway Donna, Bumblebee'll be out soon. She's just getting herself prepared. What exactly have you got planned for this shoot?'
Donna just stood there slack-jawed at the vision of hotness that stood before her.
'Donna?' Speedy blinked. 'Are you okay?'
'I want your babies!' Donna blurted out suddenly. Cheetah just shook her head in shame.
Speedy blinked in surprise at the sudden outburst.
'O-kaaaay…' The young archer blinked. 'That was… random.'
Donna groaned into her hands.
'Kill me. Kill me now.'
TBC…
Next: The Joke's on You!
Donna continues with her photo-shoot with Titans East while Diana must contend with the Joker back in Boston.
