Ch: 66 [Diana in modern world]

    [Diana''s first person pov]

    My name is Diana, the princess of Themyscira, a hidden island off the coast of Greece. My mother was the Amazon Queen, and I had been training as a warrior all my life. I was always fascinated and curious about life outside of the island, the land of men. I couldn''t imagine the kinds of freedom and opportunities available in the world outside.

    I don''t think Themyscira has anything more for me to see or experience anymore. I wanted to experience something more, something new and exciting. But before that, I had never even left the shores of the island, let alone made my way to another continent. It seemed like such a faraway, wild idea.

    My people believed that men were weak, yet they called them dangerous, and women could only achieve true strength and power with themselves. I have read the ancient texts and know the history of the Amazon race and the impact of humanity, so I felt a conflict in my heart. It had been centuries since my foremothers had fled to the hidden island and secluded themselves from the world.

    However, I sometimes wonder, why live in the past? Why do we judge all men with Hercules? Why judge all men with Gods? Didn''t their arrogance lead to their destruction and in the end were forced to leave Earth forever?

    I am a proud warrior and I respect the traditions of our sisterhood. But at the same time, doubts cloud my mind. The way I see it, there is so much beauty in the world beyond the walls of our island. And I need to see it... Experience it... I want to know if what we have been taught since our childhood is true, and if so, I shall return and accept my duty as the Princess, but if... If we have judged men wrong, and they are not the demons we have believed, then I must return and save our brothers who have been imprisoned in Mount Etna. I must save those poor souls who are killed by my sisters after copulating with them.

    Someone has to take the first step toward the future and step out of the past shadows. Maybe that someone has to be me. I will take this burden upon myself and seek the truth.

    With that thought in mind, I left the sisterhood and ventured into the outer world. But what I saw and experienced out there was beyond my imagination. Nothing could have prepared me for what happened next...

    The outside world is in chaos. They call it World War II, and hundreds, if not more, of men, women, and children are dying every day. I knew right away that I had to help. So, I dressed in my armor, concealed my identity, and joined the Allied forces. It wasn''t easy, but I was there fighting a war that wasn''t my war, but I couldn''t turn a blind eye to suffering.

    By the time the war ended, the damage was already done. Good won, justice prevailed, but at what cost? Countless lives were lost, and the world was scarred. I stayed in Europe for a while to help rebuild and heal the broken hearts and minds of those who had lost everything. Then returned back home to Themyscira.

    I told my people everything I had seen and experienced in the outside world. But they didn''t listen. They refused to believe that men weren''t all evil. They wouldn''t hear about the brave soldiers who died on the battlefield for the sake of peace. Denial was easier than acceptance. They preferred to stay in their bubble and ignore the reality around them. Mother imprisoned me in an isolated part of the island.

    As I was crossing the street, a giant truck approached me at high speed. I was about to punch it... How dare he drive like this in the middle of the city? But the driver suddenly slammed his brakes, and the vehicle screeched to a halt, inches from my face. He rolled down his window and yelled, "Get out of the way, lady! Are you trying to commit suicide or what? Go and find some other way to kill yourself. Don''t use my truck!"

    How dare this filthy drunk yell at me?

    Before I could say anything, he sped away, leaving me shocked and confused. Why does he think I want to kill myself? I was only trying to get to the other side of the road.
