“Not fun! NOT FUN!” I screamed as we raced over the track. The chariot felt every bump in the road. I was holding onto the reins for dear life. I slowed the ngựa to a slow trot. The girl who was teaching me seemed to be enjoying my panic.
“Okay. bạn seem to know who to control the ngựa know. Let’s practice your turns now.” She instructed.
“YA!” I called, flicking the reins. The ngựa raced down the track. I pulled the corner with ease. I sped it up a bit and raced around the một giây corner. I heard my instructor gasp. I slowed the ngựa when we went near Hypolita.
“I think I have the hang of charioting” I smiled
“You have the characteristics of an Amazon.” She complimented “How would bạn like to train to be one of us?”
“I-I don’t know what to say” I stuttered
“It is your choice” She smiled. I was about to agree, then I thought about Robin and the team. I couldn’t leave them. I couldn’t leave him.
“Your Highness, I am truly honored, but I belong in mans world with one man in particular” I declined
“I asked bạn if bạn would like to train, not to live here and follow our code” She smiled “I knew your answer would be no if it was that”
“How?” I asked
“You talk in your sleep” She laughed
“In that case, I’d tình yêu to!” I agreed. We started the ngày off with archery, then went to foot races with hurtles, then javelin. After that I got bracelets and got to practice reflecting arrows. Finally, it was time for me to sleep. I didn’t know where to go, so I flew to the beach. I laid there and looked at the stars. There were so many.
“You know bạn could’ve just asked one of us where bạn could sleep” a voice đã đưa ý kiến from above me. I got up and saw Hypolita.
“I prefer to sleep under the stars” I đã đưa ý kiến
“They are quite calming, aren’t they” she agreed
“I wish I could tell him” I sighed
“Tell who what?” she asked
“Robin where I am. He’ll be worried sick” I explained
“Do bạn not have a communication unit?” Hypolita asked
“I do!” I exclaimed “Hello? Batman? It’s Hawk Girl”
No reply. I took it out of my ear. I examined it closely. The salt water must’ve fried the circuits.
“Athena, some guidance would be nice right about now” I called into the stars. There was no response except for a distant hoot of an owl. Then my mind started reeling with possibilities. I let out the call of a hawk and three came flying over. They all landed on my out stretched arm. I pet each one and gave them all names. The one with the white under wings was Katana, the one with the scar on its fore head was Cutie and the smallest was Killer. I looked at Hypolita.
“Hypolita, would bạn happen to have a scroll hoặc two I could have?” I asked
“Yes. There are some in the temple. But for now, rest. Tomorrow bạn will be gifted with our Amazonian strength” Hypolita told me. I nodded. As she walked away, she paused.
“Do bạn ever wonder why bạn ended up here and even though bạn had never ridden in a chariot, bạn excelled in it?” Hypolita asked me
“Yes, sometimes. Why?” I replied
“I think the Gods, one in particular, has purposely sent bạn here to be trained. It is a sign young one. bạn are supposed to be a bridge between something, though what it is, I have no idea” Hypolita walked away.

"Sir, the cloning failed. And now the girl is fully trusted bởi the others. There is no possible way to-"
"That is false. The girl is mine, and she knows that. However, with the bat and bird protecting her, it will be difficult."
"Don't forget, she has begun dating the silver boy."
"Yes. But is it worth it to own her?"
"Sir?"
"I've seen her work at a small amount of power. I wonder how destructive she can be at full power. This girl can, no, will be, the end of the Justice League."
"Of course, sir."
"Leave me." The girl nodded, her red eyes glimmering in the dark. Then she exited without a sound.
The boy stepped out from the shadows, his yellow eyes darting around the screens. Each screen had a different picture of the same girl. He reached out and picked one.
"We've waited a long time for you, deary. It's time to come home."
