-Gotham City Streets-

Hulk stops embracing Diana and glares angrily at Circe. Diana turns around and cracks her knuckles, ready for some much deserved payback.

"You turned me into a dog. A most humiliating situation for anyone. You must die, witch!"

"You're welcome to try. Hulk, my dear. Kill these two women." Zatanna's eyes widened at Circe's demand.

"You are a fool, Circe. Why would my beloved kill us?" Diana questioned, crossing her arms.

"I never removed the obedience curse."

"Obedience curse?"

"Circe put a curse on your friend. He has to do whatever she tells him to." Zatanna says.

"You witch!" Diana exclaims.

"Hulk...kill them!" Circe commands.

Hulk charges towards Diana and Zatanna. Diana stops an incoming left punch from Hulk, struggling to keep it from hitting her.

"Hulk...stop. Try to fight this!" Diana says, struggling. She may be an Amazon, but Hulk was too powerful, even for her.

"I can't. The spell is too powerful." Hulk said as he punched Diana across the road with his other fist.

"Diana!" Zatanna cried out as she ran over to help her.

"I'm fine, Zatanna. Get Circe to remove that spell from Hulk."

"What about you?" Zatanna asked.

"I'll try to keep Hulk occupied. Now go!" Diana commanded as she leapt above Hulk, her right arm reared back for a vicious punch that knocked Hulk down. Diana straddled him, her left hand clamped on his throat. "Hulk...please! You have to regain control!"

"Diana, I can't! You have to run!" Hulk said before throwing Diana off of him, sending her flying against a building.

Zatanna shoots a fireball at Circe, who deflects it.

"Bad move, Zatanna."

"Yeah, well...you targeted my friends. Take down the obedience curse, or I'll make you." Zatanna threatens.

"Oh, that's so cute. You threatening a goddess." Circe mocks before Zatanna lands a hit across Circe's face with a fireball.

"Ooh. Stings, doesn't it?" Zatanna boasts as Circe clutches the left side of her face, screaming in agony.

"Oh...you shouldn't have done that, because now...I'm going to take great joy in causing you pain." Circe says as her face gradually heals from the burn. She summons a large stone hand out of the ground, which throws Zatanna into a wall before two small arms restrain her and a piece of metal slides over her mouth. "Good luck casting any more spells without being able to speak." Circe boasts before observing Diana punching Hulk in the face and gut, only for Hulk to stop a roundhouse kick aimed at his gut and knock her down and put his left hand around her throat while raising his right fist, ready to hit her square in the face.

"Hulk, please!" Diana pleads.

"I can't. I'm so sorry." Hulk says, tears falling from his eyes. He thrusts his fist downward, but Diana gets free and pulls out her sword and shield.

"Hulk...don't make me do this." Diana tearfully pleads, tightly gripping her weapons.

Hulk swings his right arm, which Diana ducks under and whacks Hulk across the face with her shield, making him stumble backwards. He then swings his other arm, which Diana jumps backwards from. Hulk raises both arms, only for Diana to cut him across the gut, making his attack miss. He clutches his stomach as green blood pours from his wound.

"I'm so sorry..." Diana whispers. Hulk's wound heals as he stands up. Reluctantly, Diana slashes Hulk's leg before thrusting her sword into his gut. Hulk kneels down, clutching the sword and pulls it out, his wounds healing in a matter of seconds.

"Diana...run!" Hulk thrusts his right fist towards her, but is stopped by Hulk's other hand, which firmly grips his forearm, stopping the punch from connecting with Diana's face. "No! No...I don't want to hurt you. Please...RUN!" Hulk roars out, horrified by what he was being forced to do.

"No. You didn't leave me when those Germans tortured me, or when Cheetah crudely tickled me almost to death with that vile machine. I'm not leaving you. I'm not giving up on you...because I love you."

Zatanna was finally able to wiggle free and used the same restraint tactic on Circe before entrapping Hulk's arms with magical spheres and starting an incantation to remove the obedience spell.

However, it didn't work, as Zatanna was flung off of Hulk.

"What? I don't understand." Zatanna said.

"The spell...Hulk has been under Circe's sway for too long." Diana said, tears pouring from her eyes.

Remembering what happened with Cheetah, Diana struggled to stand up and cupped Hulk's head in her hands before passionately kissing him.

After a few seconds, a dark colored energy flew out of Hulk's body before he leaned forward, his palms on the ground.

"Hulk? Are you okay?" Diana asked. Hulk slowly raised his head, smiling.

"I am now." Hulk said. Diana held him in a tight embrace. She had her friend back. "Where's Circe?" Hulk asked, revenge clearly on his mind.

"Over there." Zatanna pointed. Circe had broken free of her restraints, horrified that Hulk was free of her control.

"You tried to make me kill Diana!" Hulk roared, his voice oozing with rage as he charged at Circe. She raised a large stone shield out of the ground in front of her only for Hulk to smash through it in a single blow, his rage enhancing his strength to absurd levels. He pushes Circe to the ground and holds Circe down with his left hand, grinding his teeth in anger.

"Hulk, no!" Diana cried out. "I want to find out one thing. Tell me, Circe... Who sent you after me?"

When Circe refused to answer, Hulk squeezed tightly, making Circe scream in pain.

"Any tighter, and you'll probably lose a kidney, so I suggest you tell Diana who sent you." Hulk said.

"Ah! Hippolyta! It was Queen Hippolyta! She is envious of the two of you! She wanted me to bring her back to Themyscira so she can stand trial!"

Hulk punches Circe in the face, knocking her out.

"Mother... Even after all this, she still demands that we break apart. That will never happen. Hulk, we are bringing Circe back to Themyscira as evidence of what she did to me. It's time I had a long deserved talk with my mother.

"I couldn't agree more." Hulk said, grinning mischievously.


-Later-

Themyscira

Queen Hippolyta sits on the throne, eagerly awaiting word about Circe, completely unaware of coming events. A small group of Amazonian warriors rush into the throne room.

"My Queen!" The Amazonians cry out in unison as they kneel before her.

"Speak." Hippolyta calmly demanded.

"A small vessel approaches. The Hulk is one of its occupants...along with Diana."

"By the gods..." She mumbles to herself. "What of Circe?" She asks.

"She is on the vessel as well, but in chains."

"Let them through, but keep your weapons trained on the creature." Hippolyta sternly commands.

The Amazonians nod before walking away.


-Later-

Shores of Themyscira

Hulk and Diana park their small boat on the shore before stepping onto the sandy beaches of Themyscira. Hulk drags Circe off the boat, who grunts in pain as she hits the ground, her body wrapped in chains that prevent her from using her magic.

"Grr! You don't have to be so rough!" Circe shrieked.

"Actually, I do. You used me as weapon, and almost got me to kill the woman that I love. So...I think that gives me the right to be as rough as I want. Plus, Diana enjoys it when you get hurt."

"I sure do." Diana says, smirking. "I'll see you at the top, okay?"

"Okay." Hulk says before lightly kissing Diana on the lips. Diana then leaps to the top of the cliff overlooking the ocean, followed by Hulk leaping up as well, carrying Circe.


-Themyscira Throne Room-

Hulk and Diana stormed into the throne room. The Amazonians charged at Hulk, but he casually tossed them aside, clearly not interested in a fight.

"MOTHER!" Diana hollered angrily. "I DEMAND AN AUDIENCE!"

"You dare to speak to your mother with such improper manners?!" Hippolyta exclaims.

"Well, you should shut up and let your knockout of a daughter talk, because we have quite the story to tell." Hulk says.

"You sent Circe, sworn enemy of Themyscira, to attack us. She transformed me into a dog, then put my friend under her control, and ordered him to kill me!" Diana yelled, pointing at the restrained Circe.

"I gave you direct orders to bring Diana back, not turn her into an infantile beast!" Hippolyta yelled at Circe.

"So...you sent Circe...your sworn enemy...to separate me from my beloved... The lengths you'll go to for your own selfish endeavors never ceases to amaze me, Mother."

"I've had just about enough of your accusations, Diana! Guards, escort my daughter to her chambers. Kill this monster...for good." Hippolyta coldly commanded.

"You're really starting to tick me off." Hulk said as six Amazonians charged at him with spears. "This again? They never learn..." Hulk mumbled as he tossed Circe onto the ground and clenched his massive fists, ready for a fight.

"Ow! Do you really have to be so rough, you big green ape?" Circe questioned as she lay on the ground, unable to move.

One Amazonian leaps into the air, her spear pointed down at Hulk, but he grabs the spear and hurls the Amazon into a wall, knocking her out. A second Amazon thrusts her spear into his leg while another wraps her arms around Hulk's neck in an attempt to strangle him.

Diana broke free of the Amazons that were escorting her to her chambers, reclaiming her sword and shield. Hulk threw the Amazon that was strangling him off before kicking the Amazon that stabbed him in the leg with his other leg. Diana ran over to him, saddened to see him hurt.

"Hulk! Oh, my love. You're hurt."

"Minor setback, I can assure you." Hulk chuckled as Diana pulled out the spear and watched his wound heal as soon as the weapon was pulled from his leg. "Thanks." Hulk grunted before standing up and looking at Diana.

"Shall we deal with my mother for good, my love?" Diana asked.

"Sounds good to me." Hulk said as ten more Amazonians stood in front of the Queen.

Hulk and Diana grinned before charging, Hulk knocking them aside with devastating punches and Diana dealing with hers by slicing their legs with her sword or bludgeoning them in the face with her shield. Soon, Hippolyta was unguarded. Hulk grinned as he approached her.

"You lose, old lady." Hulk snidely remarked before Hippolyta stood from her throne, swinging a sword, which was aimed at Hulk's throat, but he was too fast, catching her wrist, stopping the sword, which was inches from touching his throat. "Too slow." He grinned before throwing her to the ground, landing right at Diana's feet.

"Daughter...please." Hippolyta begged.

"SILENCE, MOTHER! You are not fit to be Queen. You try to kill my friend, who I love, on multiple occasions, conspire with a sworn enemy of Themyscira. You once told me that I'd be Queen of Themyscira one day."

"Diana, no." Hippolyta begged.

"That day is today." Diana said.

"Don't do this."

"By the Amazon's decree...you are relieved of your position as Queen of Themyscira." Two Amazonians grabbed Hippolyta and dragged her into a prison cell before walking back into the throne room.

"Diana, you are now Queen and High Protector of Themyscira."

Diana smiled before looking at Hulk. "Hulk...I'm a queen now. You could be my king."

"Diana...I don't belong here, remember? Almost every time I step foot on the island, Amazons try to kill me."

"That changes now. I can make it so you'll be welcomed with hospitality. Stay here with me."

Hulk knew he wouldn't win this argument, so he sighed before exhaling. "Fine. If it'll make you happy...I'll be your king."

Diana smiled before leaping upwards. Hulk holds his hands under Diana's butt as the two passionately kiss, paying no attention to the Amazons watching them.

"I love you..." Diana whispered.

"I love you too..." Hulk replied before kissing her again. He finally found peace, and he couldn't be happier as he keeps kissing Diana.


-Author's Note-

WHOO! I had fun writing this chapter, but I had even more fun writing this whole story for you guys!

Diana got revenge on her mother, became Queen, and Hulk is her king.

Hulk found peace and a beautiful superheroine for a girlfriend.

Here's my idea for the sequel: The sequel will focus on the Avengers as well as She-Hulk traveling to the DC universe to bring Hulk home, but he will have no desire to go back. The Avengers will be trapped as well, and are forced to join the Justice League along with Hulk to stop a supervillain obsessed with destroying the universe. Let me know which supervillain you'd want that to be.

I'll also have other Marvel villains arrive to cause trouble, only for the heroes to stop them.

I hope you enjoyed this story!
