Chapter 3: The First Boy

As the celebration of Diana's Birthday has ended Queen Hippolyta couldn't help but smile as she witnessed Persephone show Diana how to properly use a dagger, even if it is way too early to start training at Diana's stage, she was still proud that Diana was able to lift the dagger in the first place. Seeing how this day went already, she thought the rest of the afternoon was going to be relaxing she was staring outside the balcony which overlook Themyscira, until she heard a cry, she turned around to discover that it did not come from her daughter.

Through the door the room she was in, that was most common for celebrations, burst in Alexa, Artemis and her sister Antiope, with what Alexa holding appeared to be a baby wrapped up in a blanket. She looked at them with confusion, until she asked them both what the of the matter.

"What is the meaning of this?" Is exclaimed, but also having tried to appear calm to hide her shock.

"Its a baby your highness, we found him in a basket floating in the water, while we at the beach earlier."

"Him?" Hippolyta asked

"Yes, I've checked he is a boy." Answered Alexa

"Why have you brought him here, why haven't you gotten rid of it?" All three of the women had shocked expressions to answer Hippolyta's response.

"What were we supposed to do with the child?" Antiope spoke up.

"Leave him be or toss him back in the ocean." Antiope could not have been more enraged by her sister's answer. Until, Artemis spoke up.

"Would you like to see him?"

"Fine" Hippolyta answered reluctantly

Alexa handed her the child who was sleeping in her arms, while cuddling his toy rabbit and transferred into Hippolyta's arms. She looked at the child who she knew could not have been more than a month old. He was waking up and she saw how adorable his white hair with his brown eyes were. Her mind has changed, because what kind of a mother would she be if would throw away a defenseless child. She immediately cringe at the thought of Ares because both of them share the same hair color. But the thought went away, when she realized, she didn't know the Newborn's name.

"What is the name of this child?", she asked.

"On the basket I found him in there was the name of "Lincoln Loud" I found to be written on the side of it." Alexa answered.

"Lincoln?, what a strange name but nevertheless a name for a boy."

She turned to Alexa and asked,"Are you planning on raising this child?"

Alexa answered back, "Yes I was planning to become his mother."

Artemis spoke after saying," I will help my sister raise the child and oversee his training, when he comes of age."

"Training is out of the question, he is just and infant and you already asking when his training will start." Alexa told her sister.

The three year old Diana went to Alexa's leg and tried to get her attention, when Alexa's eyes were looking at her, Diana asked as best she could as a three year old,"Can I hold the baby?"

Alexa couldn't help but smile and responded, "Of course Diana."

Alexa handed Lincoln to Diana carefully. And while she was holding him, Lincoln was looking at her and smiling. They all looked at the two with joyful expressions on their facing until Antiope said to break the silence.

"I think Lincoln will do just fine in Themyscira."
