Art 5- Painting: Liberty Leading the People

[READ THE AUTHORS NOTE PLEASE!]

The raven-haired beauty approached the little girl. The girl looked at the beauty and said with glimmering eyes, "Cool. You are Wonder Woman."

"My name is Diana." Said Wonder Woman, the raven-haired beauty, to the little girl while crouching down and match her sight. "Mine's Hannah Grace." Said the little girl licking her ice cream.

"Thank you for speaking with me, Hannah. You are not afraid of me." Diana said to the little girl. "No, I wanna be like you when I get big." Hannah said with admiring eyes. "I will welcome your sisterhood Hannah. What are you eating?" Diana asked Hannah with interest at the strange food.

"Ice cream." Reply Hannah. "Is it good?" Diana asked with slightly hungry eyes. "It's the greatest food in the world if you ask me." Said Hannah with honest thoughts, however, as she licked once more, the ice cream fell down. Hannah could only sigh sadly.

"I will try some ice cream." Diana said while pointing her sword at the ice-cream man, "And another for my friend Hannah." Added Diana, if someone saw the scene, they would likely point out that it was robbery.

"W-whatever you said, lady." Said the ice-cream man and give her a cone, "Just don't, you know, take my arm with it." Seeing the Hannah, he give her a cone too. "huh, here."

After Diana licked the ice cream, with widen eyes shouted, "Ice cream is wonderful!" Hannah looked at her with a proud look as if the ice cream was her invention, and said, "Told you so."

"You should be very proud of this achievement." Diana said with her sword pointing at him as if a knight under her was kneeling after defeating a general of the enemy side. "Umm, thanks?" The ice-cream man said.

In S.T.A.R. Labs, Dr. Stone was in sorrow, watching Victor inside the machine he said, "I lost him. I promise his mother I'll protect him, but I failed." Dr. Stone continue mourning when suddenly the machine started to contract. The scientist were in shock as they see how a blue tissue started to spread over the machine. The vitals of Victor are stable, meaning he is alive. His father is still in deep shock and in thoughts, processing what is happening.

"Diana!" A blonde-haired man called Diana. "Steve, have you ever had ice cream?" Diana asked Steve, the blonde-haired man. "This cook is truly blessed!"

"You need to come back to the White House!" Said Steve to Diana who currently was licking the ice creams with trepidation. "You sound like my mother." Diana with annoyance in her voice told him.

"I grew weary of waiting for him, so I left." Said Diana annoyed at the reminiscent of her waiting. "This is Hannah".

"Very pleased to meet you." Said Hannah to Steve. "Could you excuse us Hannah?".

"You can't walk out like that, Diana. You are a political envoy." Trevor said while walking a little far from the ice-cream man and Hannah. "I am a warrior."

"With responsibilities. Besides, I happen to know where they make the best homemade ice cream in D.C. If you are interested." Said Steve trying to bait Diana accepting the meeting and her political position.

"Oh! I could compel you to disclose this secret." Said Diana to Steve. "Or I could just take you there." Steve told her.

Suddenly, the creatures behind the kidnapping rushed out of the White House, causing chaos among the people. They destroyed the ice cream stand and went towards Diana.

"There is my true responsibility, combat! Leave them to me." Told Diana to Steve and the others before rushing at the creatures, excited to combat them.

As Diana continue slicing and grabbing them with her lasso, in the sky, at an airplane to be more precise, the president saw the creatures flying and started to attack the airplane. They enter the airplane and even if the private agents of the president were shooting them, it did not do anything.

The creature were about to pounce on the president and his wife before Diana sliced them off. "Mr. President, it's nice to finally meet you." Said Diana wiping out the creatures blood. "I am Diana, but you may call me—".

"Wonder Woman, thank goodness." Said the wife of the president before she saw Diana grabbing her lasso and behind them get hold of a creature that by then was thrown towards another coming to them.

Slicing one after another, the creatures keep coming, seeing the president and his wife getting hold, she threw her sword and sliced 3 creatures amongst them the one holding the president's wife. Rushing behind Diana so she can feel safe, as she saw Diana rushing and hitting them with bare fists.

Killing the creatures and finally saving the president from the creature that was holding him, unbeknownst to them, the creature fell down and got on turbine of the airplane. Blasting it and making the plane lost and engine, clearly it is going to make the plane crash.

The president fell through a hole made by the creatures, Wonder Woman quickly follow to save him. Grabbing him with his lasso and bringing him into the plane, saving him successfully. The pilots seeing the land as they were going to crash, got a glimpse of a red shadow, before the plane stopped suddenly.

They were confused and the couple behind Wonder Woman too. Diana then saw in one the screens Superman holding the plane while shooting his laser at the creatures. Diana deeply in thoughts `It reminds me of him. … Are you also fighting? Gin…´

Painting: `Liberty leading the People´ by Ferdinand-Victor-Eugène Delacroix (1798-1863).

Commemorating the July Revolution of 1830, which toppled King Charles X of France, Liberty Leading the People has become synonymous with the revolutionary spirit all over the world. Combining allegory with contemporary elements, the painting is a thrilling example of the Romantic style, going for the gut with its titular character brandishing the French Tricolor as members of different classes unite behind her to storm a barricade strewn with the bodies of fallen comrades. The image has inspired other works of art and literature, including the Statue of Liberty and Victor Hugo's novel Les Misérables. Well, adding another meaning for my perspective it fits Diana, as she often led the Amazons and sometimes the Justice League to the battle.
