00:00In this video, we'll dive deeper into the chaotic world of Flashpoint, a universe reshaped by a single choice where familiar heroes became something far darker.
00:10This time, we'll step into the story through the eyes of Wonder Woman, the warrior princess whose path of peace was shattered by betrayal and war.
00:19The story of Wonder Woman and the Flashpoint begins in Wonder Woman and the Fury's issue one miniseries tie-in.
00:25The story begins on Femiscara. It stands apart from the world, a hidden island untouched by time.
00:32Its shores remain veiled by powerful enchantments, protecting its secrets from the outside world.
00:38The land is proud, serene, and enduring. Its ideals preserved by illusion and ancient magic meant to shield it from the city.
00:46The city rests beneath towering cliffs and marble statues, a place of wisdom and discipline where warriors and scholars coexist in harmony.
00:53Yet within this paradise of intellect and order, curiosity begins to stir.
00:59Inside the marble halls of Femiscara, young Amazons walk among towering pillars and lush gardens.
01:05The air is filled with calm and purpose.
01:07But not all who live here are content with serenity.
01:10Some look beyond the island's borders, driven by the wonder of the unknown.
01:14On the beaches of Femiscara, a young Diana races ahead to the sand, laughing as she challenges her companion to keep up.
01:21Philippus follows behind, weighed down by her golden armor, calling out for the princess to slow down.
01:28When Philippus catches up, she finds Diana near a small hidden boat.
01:33Suspicious, she asks what the princess is planning.
01:36Diana tells her that she is not acting as her bodyguard today, but as her friend, and that she must keep the secret.
01:43She says she is planning an adventure.
01:45Philippus hesitates, asking if Diana's mother knows.
01:49Diana shakes her head and gives her an order to stay silent.
01:53If anyone asks, she says, tell them she went hunting and will return by morning.
01:59When asked why she would risk so much, Diana explains that she wants to see the world beyond Femiscara.
02:04The world she has only been told about but never seen.
02:08She wants to learn of its wonders.
02:10Diana sails beyond Femiscara's hidden shores.
02:12Her small boat, carried by the open sea, the horizon stretches endlessly before her as she whispers a prayer to Poseidon, asking for its protection.
02:22While venturing into the unknown, the mist parts to reveal the vast shadow of a massive ship, its metal hull towering above her like a wall.
02:31She looks up in awe, realizing for the first time how immense the world beyond her island truly is.
02:36The ocean breeze whips through her hair as she gazes at the ship's scale, a creation of humankind unlike anything she has ever known.
02:44Her eyes widen further as a plane passes overhead, slicing through the sky.
02:49The ocean breeze whips through her hair as she gazes at the ship's scale, a creation of humankind unlike anything she has ever known.
02:57Her eyes widen further as a plane passes overhead, slicing through the sky.
03:02Without warning, the calm sea turns violent.
03:05From the depths, massive tendrils surge upward,
03:08twisting and coiling with unnatural strength.
03:10They wrap around Diana's small boat,
03:13snapping the wood apart as the water erupts around her.
03:16She struggles, gasping as the creature drags her under.
03:20The tentacles tighten, pulling her deeper into the dark.
03:24Beneath the surface, the monstrous form reveals itself,
03:28a vast sea creature with teeth like blades,
03:30its body made of living vines and scales.
03:33Diana fights to break free.
03:35Her strength was no match for the beast's grip.
03:37The creature's mouth opened wide,
03:40and she is pulled closer into its jaws
03:42as the ocean begins to swallow her whole.
03:44Then to her luck, a warrior strikes, swift and precise.
03:48His trident pierces the beast's hide,
03:51forcing it back in a surge of thrashing limbs.
03:54It was Arthur of Atlantis, moving with power and control,
03:57each motion guided by the command to see itself.
04:01He drives the creature away from Diana.
04:03Its roar muted by the depths.
04:05Bubbles rise around them as the battle unfolds in silence,
04:09the ocean glowing faintly from the clash of power and motion.
04:12The sea creature thrashes wildly,
04:15its tendrils wrapping around both Diana and Arthur.
04:18She struggles against the crushing force,
04:21twisting and striking with everything she has.
04:23The moment she frees one arm,
04:26she grabs her sword and drives it into the creature's limb,
04:29cutting herself loose.
04:31Arthur fights alongside her,
04:33breaking to the tangle of vines and tentacles that bind them.
04:36The water churns around them,
04:38filled with bubbles and fragments of the creature's body.
04:41As Diana continues to fight,
04:43determination burning in her eyes,
04:46Arthur watches her strength and resolve.
04:48Amid the chaos of the battle,
04:50he speaks to her,
04:51calling her fierce.
04:53Diana bursts to the surface,
04:55gasping for air as the sea calms around her.
04:58Arthur rises nearby,
05:00his trident still in hand.
05:02When she asks what the creature was,
05:04he tells her it was a kraken,
05:06a young one,
05:07still growing,
05:08that had spotted her from above and attacked.
05:11Arthur introduces himself,
05:13intrigued by the stranger before him.
05:15Diana,
05:16still shaken,
05:17questions how he could survive underwater,
05:20and speaks so easily,
05:21accusing him of consorting with the monsters he seems to know so well.
05:25He replies that the kraken was only a baby,
05:28though still dangerous.
05:30As the adrenaline fades,
05:32Diana feels a sudden weakness.
05:34Arthur tells her she's been stung,
05:36the creature's venom already spreading.
05:38He warns her that her heart will stop without help.
05:41Before she can respond,
05:43he moves closer,
05:45telling her to hold her breath,
05:46as he pulls her beneath the waves.
05:48Arthur says,
05:49deep beneath the ocean,
05:51Arthur swims toward the glowing domes of Atlantis,
05:54carrying Diana in his arms.
05:56The city gleams underwater like a living jewel.
05:59It's spires and walls protected by shimmering energy.
06:03Atlantean guards rush forward as he approaches the gates.
06:06One of them calls out,
06:08surprised at the sight of the unconscious surface dweller he carries.
06:12They demand to know what strange catch he has brought into their city.
06:16Arthur gives no explanation,
06:18his focus fixed on saving her life.
06:20He orders them to alert the physicians immediately.
06:23The guards obey,
06:25moving quickly as he brings Diana into the heart of Atlantis.
06:28A month passes.
06:30In a grand hall illuminated by soft light,
06:32Queen Hippolyta stands before the gathered Amazons and Atlanteans.
06:37Her expression carries both pride and relief as she addresses the assembly.
06:41She expresses her gratitude.
06:43Her daughter Diana has been returned to her after being feared lost.
06:47In honor of this,
06:49she extends Femiscara's hand of friendship to Atlantis.
06:53She speaks of the similarities between their peoples.
06:56Ancient civilizations that have lived apart from the world of men,
06:59bound by strength and tradition.
07:01She also acknowledges that both nations are warriors at heart,
07:05ever prepared for battle.
07:06As a gesture of respect,
07:08she references the earlier misunderstanding
07:10when her sister Pendicillia's forces
07:12mistook the Atlanteans for enemies upon their arrival with her champion, Artemis,
07:18has since apologized for that error.
07:20The Atlantean representative responds with dignity,
07:23saying the apology has been accepted,
07:26admitting that they too have been too ready to believe the myths about Amazonian ruthlessness.
07:30Queen Hippolyta brings the discussion to a close and turns to Diana,
07:35inviting her to speak before the gathered Atlanteans and Amazons.
07:39Diana steps forward with poise,
07:41her words carrying both humility and vision.
07:44She admits that her journey to Atlantis had been reckless,
07:47but it has revealed new possibilities for both their peoples.
07:50She speaks of the long-standing isolation of Themyscira and Atlantis,
07:55ancient civilizations that have watched the world from afar,
07:58wary of its chaos.
08:00Yet she believes the time has come for change.
08:03Together, the Amazons and Atlanteans can guide humanity,
08:07sharing their wisdom and strength for the betterment of the world.
08:09Arthur listens and adds his voice,
08:12declaring that the world above is unstable and in need of leadership.
08:16It is their duty, he says, to protect it from destroying itself.
08:20Then, before the assembly, he proposes a bold solution,
08:24the uniting of their nations through marriage.
08:26The crowd reacts in shock as Diana and Arthur stand before them,
08:30hands joined, symbolizing a new alliance between land and sea.
08:34As time goes on, the world has learned that the two ancient civilizations,
08:40Themyscira and Atlantis, were not myths but living powers.
08:43Now, dignitaries from across the globe gather on Themyscira
08:47to witness a moment that will reshape history,
08:50the royal wedding of Princess Diana and King Arthur of Atlantis.
08:54Among the crowd stands reporter Vicky Vale, covering the event live.
08:58She describes a union as both a romantic and political milestone,
09:01a marriage meant to unite two great nations
09:04and strengthen their influence on the world stage.
09:07Behind her, the temple rises in splendor,
09:11the perfect setting for such a monumental occasion.
09:14Vicky notes the rumors that not everyone supports this alliance.
09:17Both cultures are fiercely proud and martial,
09:20and some of them in their ranks view this union with suspicion.
09:23There are whispers that it is merely a marriage of convenience,
09:27crafted to solidify power rather than love.
09:29Arthur stands beside his brother Ocean Master and his allies,
09:34calm but resolute in his choice.
09:36Ocean Master leans toward him and says it's not too late to back out of this,
09:40but Arthur's expression remains steady,
09:42despite the doubts around them.
09:45The spectacle is breathtaking,
09:47a symbol of unity between two worlds that have remained apart for centuries.
09:51Arthur turns to his brother, frustrated by his coldness.
09:54He asks if Ocean Master cannot see how this union benefits both Atlantis and Demiscra,
10:00how it could bring peace to the world.
10:03But Ocean Master refuses,
10:05saying he cannot,
10:06and that Arthur's choice disappoints him deeply.
10:09Their bond as brothers shows signs of strain,
10:12divided by politics and pride.
10:14Arthur notes to himself that Garth's absence from the ceremony
10:17only confirms his discontent.
10:19Inside the palace,
10:20the guests begin to make their way to the main hall for the ceremony.
10:25However,
10:26one of the Atlantean guards leaves his post
10:28and makes his way to the higher levels.
10:30Diana prepares for the ceremony.
10:33Queen Hippolyta stands before her daughter,
10:35pride shining in her eyes.
10:37She tells Diana that she looks beautiful
10:39and that her actions have proven her wisdom and maturity.
10:43She praises Diana for showing the selflessness of a true queen,
10:46uniting nations through diplomacy and strength.
10:49But not everyone shares her mother's optimism.
10:53Diana's ampenticillia remarks
10:54that it is nothing more than a political union,
10:57while another dismisses the entire notion,
10:59declaring that Amazons do not need men.
11:02Despite their words,
11:04Diana remains composed.
11:06She carries herself with the quiet grace
11:08of someone who understands the weight of her decision,
11:10a decision made not for love,
11:13but for the future of her people.
11:14Elsewhere in the shadows,
11:16above the Grand Hall,
11:17an armored figure knocks out one of the guards,
11:20then proceeded to watch in silence.
11:23Below, rows of soldiers and guests gather,
11:26their attention fixed on the approaching moment
11:28that will define history.
11:29Among the Atlanteans,
11:31Arthur prepares himself.
11:33His brother Ocean Master
11:34turns to him with a pointed question.
11:36Does he truly love Diana?
11:38Arthur's answer is calm but firm.
11:40He says that both he and Diana
11:42understand the gravity of what they are doing,
11:44and that their union is not about desire,
11:46but the greater good of the world.
11:48As Diana enters,
11:50she takes Arthur's hand before the gathered crowd.
11:53Together,
11:54they face the assembly,
11:56ready to seal the fate of two powerful civilizations.
11:59The queen's voice echoes through the temple
12:00as she declares that the ceremony
12:02will follow the sacred traditions of Femiscera,
12:05marking the beginning of an alliance
12:06meant to unite land and sea.
12:09Arthur looks at Diana with quiet admiration
12:11and tells her she's breathtaking.
12:13Diana responds with composed grace,
12:16accepting his words with a hint of humor,
12:18a small exchange that softens the gravity of the moment.
12:21For a fleeting instant,
12:23the ceremony feels peaceful,
12:25filled with the promise of unity and hope.
12:27Queen Hippolyta then addresses the assembly.
12:31She praises the courage of the young leader
12:32standing before her
12:33and calls upon everyone to witness their vows,
12:37a solemn undertaking that symbolizes more than marriage.
12:40It is a pledge of trust
12:41between two civilizations
12:43that have long lived apart.
12:45As she speaks,
12:46movement catches her eye,
12:48an armored Atlantean figure in the shadows above.
12:51The queen's words falter as realization dawns.
12:54Her expression shifts from calm to alarm
12:56as she spots the armored figure rape,
12:59but it's too late.
13:00From the balcony,
13:01the assassin strikes.
13:03A golden trident gleams in the light
13:05as it launches through the air,
13:07aimed straight at the heart of the ceremony.
13:09In an instant,
13:11the fragile peace they fought to build
13:13begins to shatter.
13:14The ceremony descends into chaos.
13:16In an instant,
13:17from the balcony above,
13:19the golden trident pierces through the air
13:21with deadly precision.
13:22Before anyone can react,
13:24it strikes true,
13:25embedding itself in the back of Diana's mother.
13:28Diana collapses beside her mother,
13:30her hands trembling as she cries out in anguish.
13:33The queen lies motionless.
13:35The realization hits Diana like a wave.
13:37Her mother,
13:39Queen Hippolyta,
13:40has been struck down before her eyes.
13:42Arthur turns toward the chaos,
13:44demanding to know what has happened,
13:46his voice breaking through confusion.
13:49Panthesla shouts in fury.
13:51She draws her blade,
13:52calling the act an atrocity.
13:54She screams,
13:56pointing toward the balcony above.
13:58As the assassin begins to run away,
13:59the assassin begins to quickly take their helmet off.
14:02But before they can finish,
14:04the killer is knocked to the ground,
14:06sending the helmet flying off.
14:08It was then revealed that the assassin
14:09was the Amazon warrior Artemis.
14:12She turns to see that her attacker was Garth,
14:14the Atlantean warrior whose armor she had stolen,
14:18stares at her in outrage and disbelief.
14:20He said to her that she had stolen his armor
14:23and killed her own queen.
14:25His voice trembles with fury,
14:27but she doesn't flinch.
14:29Instead, she goes on the attack,
14:30kicking Garth in his throat
14:32and knocking him to the ground.
14:34Garth quickly recovered
14:35and goes to deliver a strike.
14:38But with Artemis' special training as a warrior,
14:40she was able to overpower him.
14:42After the fight,
14:43Artemis places Garth in his uniform
14:45and throws him to the crowd in the great hall,
14:48claiming that it was him that murdered the queen.
14:51Garth lies broken on the marble floor,
14:53blood pooling beneath his armor.
14:55Arthur rushes to him,
14:57disbelief written across his face.
14:59Kneeling beside his fallen comrade,
15:02the young Atlantean coughs weakly,
15:04his final words barely escaping his lips.
15:07Before Arthur can make sense of it,
15:09Penthesilia moves to strike,
15:11her rage uncontained.
15:13But an Amazon spear flashes through the air,
15:16piercing his chest.
15:17Penthesilia lifts her head.
15:19She looks at Arthur ordering him
15:21and his people to leave the island.
15:23Knowing that nothing can be done,
15:25Arthur orders his people to leave.
15:26The crowd slowly walks away
15:28as they return to the sea.
15:30Night falls over Femiscara,
15:32the once proud island now cloaked in mourning.
15:35Inside the palace,
15:37Diana lies unconscious in her ornate bed,
15:40sedated and broken by the loss of her mother
15:42in a collapse of peace.
15:44Penthesilia says Diana will sleep.
15:46She needs her strength to grieve,
15:48and they will need her strength to lead the Amazons.
15:51Philippus nods,
15:53standing guard in silence,
15:54as shadows lengthen across the marble halls.
15:56But elsewhere in the dim corridors,
15:59two figures meet under flickering torchlight.
16:02Penthesilia and another Amazon.
16:05Their voices are hushed,
16:06but the weight of betrayal lingers between them.
16:09A regrettable mistake.
16:10One mutters coldly.
16:12Hippolyta saw the light catch the armor.
16:15Penthesilia replies,
16:16her face hidden beneath shadow.
16:18She blocked the intended target.
16:20No matter,
16:21the result is the same.
16:23The union was in tatters.
16:25As she pours two cups of wine,
16:27her final words seal the fate of nations.
16:30Now it was Ocean Master's turn.
16:32The Amazons gather on a sacred platform
16:34overlooking the sea.
16:36The final day of Apollotus'
16:38three-day ritual of passage.
16:40All that remains is a ceremony
16:41to appease the gates of Tartarus,
16:44after which their queen will be gone from this world.
16:47Penthesilia's voice burns with fury.
16:49Your mother's blood cries out for vengeance, Diana.
16:52She was your sister too,
16:54and we will finish the rites before we plot war.
16:57Diana, holding a crown of roses,
17:00answers with heavy restraint.
17:02War will not wait for us.
17:04But war with Atlantis is a choice
17:05we cannot step back from.
17:07Her generals, Artemis and Philippus,
17:10argue fiercely beside her,
17:12ready to strike before reason fades.
17:14Diana's tone cuts through the fire.
17:16She tells them that was enough.
17:19Two days later,
17:20under a tense and clouded sky,
17:22the peace talks begin.
17:24Atlantean ships approach the shores of Themyscira,
17:27their sails white against the turquoise sea.
17:29The Amazons watch from the cliffs above,
17:32spears in hand,
17:33their resolve unshaken.
17:35The air is heavy with ceremony,
17:37and suspicion,
17:38inside the great marble hall.
17:40Queen Diana walks alongside her Aunt Penthesilia,
17:44their armor gleaming in the firelight.
17:46We will hear their lies,
17:47I'm sure.
17:48Penthesilia says coldly,
17:50I would prefer to hear their death screams.
17:53Diana's tone is firm,
17:54her expression calm but weary.
17:56We will hear them out,
17:58at least.
17:59Ahead,
18:00the throne room stands prepared.
18:02Guards at attention.
18:04Banners of peace fluttering,
18:05and the scent of burning oils filling the air.
18:07Are the preparations in hand?
18:09Penthesilia asks.
18:11Yes,
18:11comes the reply.
18:12Diana pauses at the steps of her throne.
18:15Her eyes narrowing toward the approaching footsteps echoing through the hall.
18:19The fate of two worlds walks through those doors.
18:22She commands to let Arthur in.
18:25Inside the towering marble halls of Famiscara,
18:28the sound of boots echoes sharply.
18:30The Atlantean delegation has arrived.
18:33Arthur,
18:34trident in hand,
18:35leads Rodan and a squad of soldiers through the grand entrance.
18:39As the Atlanteans ascend the marble steps,
18:42Queen Diana waits above,
18:44radiant,
18:44unmoving,
18:45her warriors flanking her throne.
18:48Arthur bows slightly.
18:49He offers Diana
18:50his condolences and a fervent wish for peace.
18:53A great crime has been committed,
18:56and that they must find the true culprit.
18:58Diana's eyes narrow,
19:00her voice sharp as steel.
19:02She agrees to hear him.
19:04Arthur steps closer.
19:05He tells her that they must do this together.
19:08They must rebuild trust.
19:10There was too much at stake.
19:11Diana lowers her spear just slightly,
19:14her tone cold and distant.
19:16Together.
19:17She replies,
19:18together is a strong word.
19:20At that moment,
19:21a woman speaks into her bracelet,
19:23saying the word.
19:24Now.
19:25The silence of diplomacy is shattered in an instant.
19:29A flash of red and gold.
19:30Then an explosion tears through the marble city of Femiscara.
19:34The ground splits and fire blooms across the sky.
19:38A shockwave tears through the palace.
19:41Warriors are thrown from their feet.
19:43Wonder Woman cries out,
19:44infamy.
19:45Femiscara is attacked.
19:48Smoke fills the air.
19:49Through the haze,
19:50Philippus lies motionless,
19:53struck by debris.
19:54She's dead.
19:55A soldier screams.
19:57Arthur rushes forward,
19:58eyes wide in disbelief.
20:00But Wonder Woman's grief twists into rage.
20:03Her voice cracks with fury as she turns on Aquaman.
20:06Her eyes wet with tears and fire.
20:09She calls him a treacherous bastard,
20:11she roars,
20:12punching across his face.
20:14In that single furious strike,
20:16the Alliance dies,
20:17and war is born.
20:18The sky burns above Femiscara.
20:21Explosions ripple across the island.
20:24Towers collapse.
20:25Temples crumble,
20:26and the sea boils with fire.
20:29Amongst the chaos,
20:31Ocean Master reaches for Aquaman,
20:33telling him that they need to fall back.
20:35Arthur stumbles,
20:36shielding his face from the flames.
20:38He tells his brother to cease fire now.
20:41But Ocean Master tells him that it's not them.
20:45They were under attack as well.
20:47The revelation comes too late.
20:49Another explosion hits one of Aquaman's ships,
20:52sinking into the bottom of the ocean.
20:54The Amazons ready their spears,
20:56pointing them at Aquaman.
20:58Convinced of Atlantean treachery,
21:00Arthur shouts over the roar of the fire,
21:02desperation in his voice.
21:04He calls out to Diana,
21:06telling her that they are being deceived.
21:08But she's already charging forward.
21:11She swings her sword at Aquaman's face,
21:13just slicing across his face.
21:15Smoke and fire twist around the shattered marble columns,
21:18as chaos consumes Femiscara.
21:20Be gone,
21:21or die here.
21:23My love,
21:23Diana snarls,
21:25clashing with Ocean Master,
21:26as he rushes to defend his king.
21:28Metal rings to the hall as their swords and spears clash in the intense atom sphere,
21:32as she knocks him back with divine fury.
21:35The queen's guards surge forward.
21:38Protect the queen.
21:39They roar,
21:40forming a golden wall of shields.
21:42Another Amazon grabs Diana's arm,
21:45pulling her away.
21:46Femiscara burns.
21:48The once golden island,
21:50cradle of gods and warriors,
21:52now crumbles into the sea.
21:54One Amazon was pulling Diana through the chaos.
21:57As flames consumed the marble halls,
21:59as the roar of destruction closed in,
22:01the Amazon began their evacuations,
22:04heading for their invisible jets.
22:06In a special chamber,
22:07Pentacillia orders Diana to break the seal of Tartarus.
22:11She feels that if they sacrificed the island,
22:13it would send their enemies to damnation.
22:15Diana hesitates,
22:17her heart heavy,
22:18her voice trembling.
22:20The idea of destroying their island,
22:22their home was too much to bear.
22:24Pentacillia shouts again do it,
22:26Diana.
22:27Her spear ignites in divine light.
22:29With a single strike,
22:31she breaks the sacred seal.
22:33Diana stands among the ruins,
22:35eyes hollow,
22:36believing she has lost everything.
22:38Outside,
22:39the island starts to shake,
22:41buildings that have stood the test of time
22:43begin to crumble and fall to the ground.
22:45Pentacillia voiced her answer coldly,
22:48you won the right to be a true Amazon queen
22:50and conquer the world.
22:52Pure vengeance becomes her justification.
22:54At the port of Dover,
22:56now renamed New Femiscaria,
22:58Wonder Woman oversees the Amazon fortifications.
23:01The remnants of British defenses look pitiful
23:03beside the disciplined ranks of her warriors.
23:06The Amazons,
23:07under Banner of the Furies,
23:09have turned England's coast into a fortress,
23:11but even Hawkgirl acknowledges its weaknesses.
23:14Diana's focus is absolute,
23:17with the authority of a conqueror cloaked as a queen.
23:19She approves of Hawkgirl recommendations to rebuild
23:23and strengthen the stronghold.
23:25The air smells of salt and steel,
23:27the scent of preparation for an inevitable war.
23:30She is introduced to Tara Markoff,
23:32a woman of royal blood from Markovia,
23:35cast in the shadow of her disgraced brother.
23:37Tara pledges her allegiance to the Amazon cause,
23:40seeking redemption through battle.
23:42Diana studies her carefully,
23:44weighing loyalty, strength, and purpose.
23:46The traits of a true Amazon,
23:49not by birth, but by conviction.
23:51But before the conversation can deepen,
23:53a sudden alarm cuts through the air.
23:55An Atlantean ship rose from beneath the waves,
23:58engines glowing like underwater suns.
24:01The sea boils with war once more,
24:03as Atlantis comes to reclaim what it believes was stolen.
24:07The silence before battle vanishes.
24:09The storm has returned.
24:11Wonder Woman commands her Furies with surgical precision.
24:14Hawkgirl dives through the air.
24:16There, Vixen shields a young Tara Markoff,
24:19and Artemis leads a charge at Diana's side.
24:21The Amazons fight with fury born of exile.
24:25Each strike is an answer to years of loss.
24:27Every blade a prayer for vengeance.
24:30The air crackles with heat and chaos.
24:32Flashes of energy lighting the battlefield,
24:34as cries of war echo through the docks of New Femscara.
24:38But amidst the carnage,
24:40the true purpose of the attack reveals itself.
24:43A ripple of power cuts through the waves.
24:45Deliberate, precise.
24:48This is no invasion.
24:49It's a message.
24:51Mara, Queen of Atlantis,
24:53bursts in the ocean's depths,
24:55her emerald armor glinting under the pale sky.
24:58Water surges around her like living serpents,
25:00as she launches directly at Diana.
25:03The impact sends them crashing through the air
25:05in a violent collision of might and history.
25:08For a heartbeat,
25:09the world stands still.
25:11Two queens, once allies,
25:13now enemies bound by grief and betrayal,
25:16face each other as a war that drowned the world reignites.
25:19Water and steel collide in a storm of divine fury.
25:23Mara strikes first,
25:24wielding her hydrokinesis like a living weapon.
25:27Blades of water lashing with the precision of a trained assassin.
25:31Wonder Woman meets her attack head on,
25:34bracing the impact with her gauntlets
25:35as the dock explodes around them.
25:38The Furies move to defend their queen,
25:40but Diana halts them with a single command.
25:43Her voice is cold, unshaken.
25:45The tone of a warrior who has known lost too long to flinch from it.
25:49She will face this battle alone.
25:51Across the battlefield,
25:53Mara stands defiant,
25:54her emerald armor shimmering under the fractured light.
25:58Every word, every strike,
26:00carries years of betrayal and bitterness.
26:02Love turned to ash by war.
26:05Diana once saw in Mara an equal,
26:07a kindred ruler who might share her vision of peace between land and sea.
26:11Now,
26:12she sees only the face of the woman,
26:14who took everything from her.
26:16Diana steadies herself,
26:18blood streaking down her cheek,
26:20one knee pressing against the broken stone.
26:22Her sword glints in firelight,
26:25a reflection of everything she's lost.
26:27In one brutal,
26:29final motion,
26:30Mara goes into the attack,
26:32flying to the air with her tridents and shield ready by her side.
26:36However,
26:36Wonder Woman counters the last of Mara's attack,
26:38and drives her blade forward.
26:40The world seems to still round them.
26:43A heartbeat of silence before the weight of what's been done settles in.
26:47Mara falls.
26:48The ocean queen's head was separate from her body.
26:51Her lifeless body collapses to ground.
26:54Diana walks over to Mara's severed head,
26:57and takes her helmet as a trophy over her victory.
27:00Far beneath the waves,
27:02an Atlantean vessel retrieves the lifeless body of their queen.
27:05The moment Arthur Curry sees her,
27:07the woman who had been his heart,
27:09his balance,
27:10something inside him breaks.
27:12His grief transforms into fury,
27:15so deep it trembles through the ocean itself.
27:17Ocean Master stands beside him,
27:20speaking words of caution,
27:22but Arthur no longer listens.
27:24The light that once made him a king of two worlds is gone,
27:27replaced by wrath.
27:29His voice rises,
27:30trembling with rage and loss,
27:32as he gives the order that will shatter the surface world forever.
27:36Deploy the geopost device.
27:38Sink them.
27:39Kill them all.
27:40And so begins the true cataclysm,
27:43the day the seas rose not to cleanse,
27:45but to avenge.
27:46Eight months earlier,
27:48the world began to fracture.
27:50Across Europe,
27:51the earth convulsed under the weight of an unseen force.
27:55In Venice,
27:56the ancient bell tower of St. Mark's crumbled
27:58as the ground split apart,
28:00sending citizens fleeing through the streets.
28:03In Barcelona,
28:04the towering spires of the Sagrada Familia cracked and trembled,
28:08casting long shadows over a doomed city.
28:10And in Rome,
28:11St. Peter's Square fell silent.
28:14Its sacred stones now mark the beginning of an unstoppable catastrophe.
28:18As the geopulse weapon of Atlantis tore through the continent,
28:22humanity's greatest landmarks vanished beneath the waves.
28:26Civilizations that stood for centuries collapsed in moments.
28:30The war between Atlantis and Themyscira had finally reached its breaking point,
28:34and Europe paid the price.
28:36London drowned beneath the rising tide.
28:38The Thames surges over its banks,
28:41swallowing Westminster,
28:43and breaking the bridge apart as if it were made of glass.
28:46Big Bend tilts into flood,
28:48its final toll lost in the roar of the sea.
28:50Far to the south,
28:51In Dover,
28:53the Amazons stand on the cliffs,
28:55watching the wrath of Atlantis consume the horizon,
28:58across Europe.
28:59The land itself fractures,
29:01a tremor that is not merely geological,
29:04but divine.
29:05As the seas rise higher,
29:07the Amazons realize the unthinkable truth.
29:09Atlantis is not striking to conquer,
29:12it is striking to erase.
29:13A colossal wall of water looms over the coast of England,
29:17a living mountain of the sea,
29:19its shadows swallowing the horizon.
29:21The Amazons stand helpless as the ocean rises to erase them.
29:25The final vengeance of Atlantis made manifest,
29:29but one among them refuses to yield.
29:32Terra,
29:33trembling and pale,
29:34channels the last remnants of her power.
29:37The pain is unbearable,
29:39her brother suffering echoing through her veins,
29:41yet she stands against the inevitable.
29:43As the tidal wave descends,
29:45her eyes ignite like molten suns.
29:48The earth itself answers her rage,
29:50cracking, heaving,
29:51roaring beneath her feet.
29:53She tears power from the planet's core,
29:56defying the gods and the deep alike.
29:58I will not let them drown us.
30:00With a scream that shakes the cliffs,
30:03Terra unleashes a final surge of seismic fury.
30:06The coastline fractures outward,
30:08and for a brief, blinding moment,
30:11she halts the ocean's advance,
30:13one woman holding back the end of the world.
30:15With all the power,
30:17Terra managed to raise the land higher into the sky.
30:20She presented this land as New Femiscara.
30:24Terra sits alone upon the marble steps of Buckingham Palace.
30:27Though she saved an entire nation,
30:30her eyes betray a heavy cost.
30:32The earth no longer speaks to her gently,
30:35only an echo is a pain,
30:37unaware to her inside the palace.
30:39She is being watched by Pentacillia.
30:42She thinks about how that a young girl had saved the Amazons,
30:45knowing that she is vital to their war efforts.
30:48Just then,
30:49she hears voices.
30:50As Pentacillia looks around the palace,
30:52she spots Ocean Master and Gila.
30:55The Gila turns and spots Pentacillia.
30:58In anger,
30:59Gila draws her blades,
31:00hoping to seek revenge for her sister's death.
31:03She screams in anger.
31:05The Queen's aunt,
31:06die, witch!
31:07The clash is brutal and swift.
31:10Before Gila could strike,
31:11Pentacillia,
31:12the Queen's general,
31:14meets her with divine precision.
31:16Steel meets water,
31:17and water shatters.
31:19In one decisive motion,
31:21Pentacillia drives her spear through the intruder's chest,
31:24silencing the Atlantean threat
31:26before her vengeance can be spoken again.
31:29Disappointing,
31:30she mutters coldly,
31:31as the woman falls lifeless at her feet.
31:34From below,
31:35the echo of chaos ripples through the halls of New Femiscara.
31:39Terra races through the corridors,
31:41her pulse pounding with dread.
31:42She cries out to Wonder Woman
31:44that there's been an attack.
31:47The palace erupts into alarm.
31:49Guards and warriors gather
31:50as Wonder Woman herself strides forward,
31:53fury burning behind her calm.
31:55She commands her troops to protect Terra,
31:57the girl who saved their nation,
32:00while she goes to confront the source of this betrayal herself.
32:03As Diana rushes toward the scene,
32:05her thoughts turn dark.
32:07Her and the war she thought buried beneath diplomacy
32:10may be stirring once more.
32:13The air in the royal chamber turns heavy.
32:15Diana bursts through the curtains,
32:17prepared for battle,
32:18but the sight before her stops are cold.
32:21Ocean Master,
32:23the brother of Aquaman,
32:24stands clad in that landing regalia,
32:27locked and embraced with Pentacillia,
32:29her own trusted general.
32:31For a moment,
32:32time itself seems to fracture.
32:34The war that had torn continents apart,
32:36the oceans that had devoured millions,
32:38all of it now distilled into a single betrayal.
32:41Her voice cuts through silence,
32:44like thunder calling her aunt a traitor.
32:47Ocean Master tightens his grip on his trite.
32:50His mask and ceiling neither guilt nor calculation.
32:53Pentacillia,
32:54trembling,
32:55tries to speak,
32:56but the truth is already written in the fire behind Diana's eyes.
33:00Enraged by what she has seen,
33:02Diana attacks Ocean Master.
33:04Her aunt tries to play with her,
33:06but her words fall on deaf ears.
33:08Diana points at Pentacillia,
33:10telling her to stop her lies.
33:12But still she tries to get Diana to listen.
33:15But Wonder Woman approaches her aunt.
33:17Standing close to her face,
33:19she tells her that for her people to survive,
33:21she had to make sacrifices from Pentacillia's advice.
33:25Because of her scheme with Ocean Master,
33:27millions of people have died in her name.
33:30But Pentacillia told Diana to shut up
33:32as she explained to Diana
33:33that the world didn't need a peaceful union between their people,
33:37but to create a new empire that would control the world.
33:40Even if sacrifice had to be made,
33:43Diana attacked in furious rage,
33:45asking her aunt if her mother was a sacrifice to this cause.
33:49Diana's soldiers rush in,
33:51torn between duty and fear.
33:53My queen, they cry,
33:54unsure where loyalty now belongs.
33:57Diana seizes her fallen foe and throws her down.
34:00She tells the Furies to guard this traitor.
34:03Then a voice in the corridor shatters her stillness.
34:06The Atlantean fleet has been sighted off the coast.
34:09The storm has arrived.
34:11As Pentacillia glares from her chains,
34:13her words echo in Diana's mind.
34:16Are you a diplomat or a warrior?
34:18Tears mix with the dust of battle
34:20as Diana whispers her answer,
34:22not to the room,
34:23but to herself.
34:25I am an Amazon.
34:26Wonder Woman storms in the chamber,
34:29every step echoing with the weight of betrayal and war.
34:32Her armor catches alight like a flame reborn,
34:35the symbol of an empire refusing to fall.
34:37Behind her,
34:39the Amazon stand divided,
34:41and Tara watches in silence,
34:43the gilder own survival pressing heavy on her chest.
34:46Diana's eyes harden beneath the helm.
34:49The world has seen their sins.
34:51Atlantis prepares a strike.
34:53Her aunt's treachery still bleeds in the shadows of the throne.
34:56But there is no time for judgment,
34:58only survival.
35:00For now,
35:01she growls,
35:02her voice carrying the edge of command.
35:04We have other enemies to face.
35:07In the dim chamber,
35:08Ocean Master kneels on the ground,
35:11his face unreadable beneath the shadows of his helmet.
35:14Pentacillia stands before him,
35:16composed yet cold,
35:17her betrayal complete.
35:19Ocean Master's voice breaks the quiet,
35:21asking if it's time.
35:23Pentacillia's answer comes steady,
35:25almost ceremonial.
35:27Yes,
35:28it's time.
35:29He smiles,
35:30as he presses a button on his gauntlet.
35:32Then,
35:32under the British Isle,
35:34the Atlantean fleet,
35:35begin to explode.
35:37On the streets of London,
35:38the long-waited battle between Wonder Woman and Aquaman
35:41is finally taking place.
35:43Swords and tridents clash through the streets.
35:46Diana tries one last time to convince Aquaman
35:49that they were both deceived by his brother and her aunt.
35:52Arthur refuses to listen,
35:54reminding Diana that she killed Mara.
35:57Arthur tells Diana that he could not believe that he ever loved her,
36:00but Diana was quick to respond that he never did.
36:03Then in the corner of her eyes,
36:05she notices something going on.
36:07A massive lightning storm mixed with red and yellow appears.
36:12Dust clouds begin to form around the storm.
36:14This concludes the story of Wonder Woman and the Furies.
