The boy between worlds

Start from the beginning
                                    

Needless to say, she trained you as harshly as she could, sometimes you would end up bloody and full of bruises due to the warmup alone. However, you were too stubborn to just give up, so you managed to endure it one way or the other

No wonder why the Amazons have such great physique if they trained like that

As for the redhead guiding you, her name was Artemis of Bana-Mighdall. She was not from Themyscira, but still helped to train you

Of course, being as cruel as she was, she would hardly show any mercy towards you when training and would not talk to you if it wasn't important, but in time she became fond of you mostly due to your sarcastic remarks on almost every single thing once given the chance

She would later become what you could call a "best friend" and even if she didn't like to admit it, she would look up to you too

Your morning thoughts were interrupted by an always pleasant noise, a river. You saw that not so far away, a bunch of Amazons were in the river nearby, enjoying the water.

They had gotten used to your presence, in fact, some they had even come to like you. A smile grew on your face the moment you noticed them

You: Well hello to you, ladies~

You bowed to them respectfully with a smile, earning some giggled and of course, flirty responses from the women while others just scuffed or rolled their eyes

You chuckled at this, but the moment was short-lived due to some scoffing you heard. When looking for the source of that sound, you found your companion not amused by your behavior

Artemis: Are you done?

You laughed nervously at her and scratched the back of your neck

Perhaps you have spent a lot of time in Themyscira, but not everyone has the fortune of living on an island full of heavenly women

You: Right, let's go

She sighed as she turned around to lead the way yet again, but shortly after, your own curiosity brought you something to talk about

You: So, Artemis, why does the queen need me today? Another wise lesson of power and responsibility?

She chuckled at your comment but kept the same voice tone

Artemis: You're going to like this one

But then you realized something once you actually paid attention to the path you were walking

She was taking you to the Colosseum

You: (In mind): Bugger, not one of these again...

When Artemis moved a bush out of the way, the view in front of you confirmed this, the Colosseum

Acting out of pure instinct, you froze in place once you saw the building. It never did leave pleasant memories

Your friend noticed this and acted on it, putting a hand on your shoulder

Artemis: Hey, you're going to do fine, trust me. I have seen you fight

You: Then I guess you've seen me get annihilated.

Artemis: You're much better now, you can do this, Y/N. The Amazons know it, I know it, and you should too

You looked away from the building and into Artemis' eyes. You did not spot a single bit of doubt in her eyes, she was always a comforting figure once she tried to

You: *Sigh* If you say so... Then I might be up to a good match today

Seeing you embrace the upcoming event draw a smile on her face, nodding in reply
