“[color=D14F43]I have some experience finding trouble.[/color]”[/quote]
Her statement to the crown princess was not a lie, that much was for sure.

In her experience there were two camps when it came to heroes and trouble. On the left you had the people who had to pursue trouble to find it; on the right you had people who just had to [i]exist[/i] for trouble to find [i]them[/i]. Diana was in the latter camp despite the occasion requiring her to be in the former. She supposed that was how herself and Superman were different than the likes of Batman and Green Arrow. Diana had always assumed it was a “power” thing because as far as she figured it— when you had powers that made the press label you a [i]god[/i] it was hard for trouble not to seek you out. 

Which was exactly what had happened here in Kaznia. Just as Wonder Woman predicted when she had her conversation with Princess Audrey. 

The warlords who profited off their attacks had not been particularly thrilled by the presence of the superheroine, as made clear by their resolve to send mercenaries to deal with her in only a few hours. But that wasn’t too surprising given what Wonder Woman had done in the past to profiteering gangs, criminal syndicates, and corrupt organizations back in the west. Diana may not have been as good of a detective as her peers but she was competent enough of a problem that criminals reacted to her poorly out of their own sense of dread. It also didn’t hurt that her lasso had the ability to [i]force[/i] the [i]truth[/i] out of those bound by it. Had Batman had a Lasso of Truth he’d probably get shit done a lot faster. A lot faster.

However, the profiteers in Kaznia were not so insanely stupid or ignorant to send simpletons with firearms at Wonder Woman. So what Diana was charging headfirst into was a bit… [i]prepared[/i]. The answer to the question of “So who do you send to deal with Wonder Woman?” was really simple. Like any other god-like hero you had a few answers: experimental weaponry, magic, or a [i]god-like enemy.[/i]

It so happened that a former acquaintance of Diana’s fit that answer quite well.

[b][color=D14F43]“This isn’t like you, Doris. You work for yourself, not senseless warmongers!”[/color][/b]

Giganta swung her foot down at the ‘Amazon’, meeting Diana’s forearms as she did so.

[b]“I’ll have you know that those ‘senseless warmongers’ have offered me a [i]lot[/i] of money to have you dealt with, Diana! More than I could’ve made on my own in Gateway City!”[/b]

Diana gritted her teeth. Even with the strength she had, Dolores had incredible strength when at her peak height; almost god-like. But therein laid the issue with them sending only Giganta to take her on. Diana wasn’t almost god-like, she [i]was[/i] god-like.

[b][color=D14F43]“Don’t—”[/color][/b]

Diana pushed her arms forward, breaking free from the force of the foot. 

[b][color=D14F43]“—think—”[/color][/b]

Pushing herself into the sky as Giganta stumbled, the superheroine turned on a dime as she drove herself upward elbow first— right into Giganta’s jaw.

[b][color=D14F43]“—it’ll be that [i]easy![/i]”[/color][/b]

Diana was not happy before Giganta showed up in Kaznia, and her new enemies hiring up one of her known enemies made her even more displeased. Doris Zuel since turning to crime involved herself more in heists, robberies, and theft; never really resorting to consorting with terrorists, especially terrorists in a country foreign to her. Was Circe behind this? Did that enchantress put this together? Is this what she meant when she taunted her? Something smelled foul and Diana was not a fan.

At the very least, Giganta would have some answers. And Diana would make sure she told all of them. Diana decided to make this as quick as possible, not only for her sake but for the city of Zvono. She wasn’t sure how she was going to make this up to the people of Kaznia, but she’d find a way.

As Giganta’s jaw met Diana’s elbow she continued to find it difficult to keep her footing but as her foot caught the ground, Diana slammed down into her body as the superheroine’s feet dug into her stomach with a zealous strike. Diana was done playing— a thought Doris came to realize alongside the fact that she hadn’t even considered how she was going to successfully get rid of Diana for her employers in the first place. She had never [i]won[/i] a fight against Wonder Woman, so the idea of [i]killing[/i] her friendly nemesis (well, currently unfriendly) was pretty damn absurd. 

[b]“Wait!”[/b] 

A few moments prior, maybe Diana would’ve hesitated. But it was too late.

[b][color=D14F43]“It’s done, Doris! [i]We’re[/i] done!”[/color][/b]

[list][b][i]CRACK![/i][/b][/list][i][h3][b]THUD![/b][/h3][/i]
Doris could feel her entire body going numb as her size began to flicker until she turned back to her normal size. 

Diana reached to her side, drawing her lasso as her brows narrowed. [b][color=D14F43]“We’re going to have that little chat [i]now[/i], Doris. Don’t struggle, it’ll just make me [i]more[/i] furious.”[/color][/b][/indent]
