Children of Diana - Part 2

Part 1 | Masterpost

Diana had not intended to reveal the existence of her children so soon. But thankfully, Daniel and Dante seemed to agree that it would not be too troublesome for her colleagues to know of them.

She is grateful, at least, that no one suspects Diana Prince to be a mother of three. Instead, the world knows only that Wonder Woman has taken on two young male apprentices. The distinction, while subtle, grants her a measure of control over the narrative. It is, admittedly, a confusing time for some—especially her fellow heroes.

As expected, Batman is the first to approach her.

“You have partners?” he asks, his tone softer than usual, lacking the usual gruffness.

Diana smiles, tilting her head. “Yes. Though from what I understand, they are younger than your Robin.” She pauses, recalling the bright, determined child who first wore the mantle. “The older one is close in age to when Robin first came to be.”

Batman nods, understanding. “Do you require any assistance or advice on the matter? I am willing to offer guidance on mentoring young vigilantes. Though I must admit, I will be lacking in the powers department.”

Diana appreciates the offer. Even she struggles to fully anticipate the depths of Dante and Daniel’s abilities—so fluid, so unbound by the laws she has known. But she appreciates the helping hand nonetheless.

“Thank you, Batman.” She grins. His identity remains elusive, but she respects his privacy. More than ever, now that she has children of her own, she understands why he chooses to remain an enigma when so many of their colleagues have unmasked.

“It’s no problem.” He shakes his head, his cape shifting slightly with the motion. “You may bring them to the Watchtower at some point. Preferably once they’ve received enough training.”

Diana arches a brow, smirking. “The same way you brought Robin?”

Because, of course, Robin had not been formally introduced. The boy had snuck in, startling many before being caught by Kal—moments before he nearly ambushed his own mentor.

Batman grunts, displeased yet faintly amused by the memory. “Hopefully not.”

“I will try,” Diana laughs.

She eventually finds herself back home, where Dante and Daniel are suffering as per usual, trying to wrangle their adventurous infant of a sister to not float out the window. Like usual.

Diana steps into the room just in time to hear the chaos unfolding.

“Hi, Di!” Danny greets, far too cheerfully for someone currently wrangling a two-year-old with the strength and determination of a seasoned warrior. His eyes flicker green before he turns back to the little troublemaker currently biting the windowsill. “Can we borrow your lasso?! Or buy a leash?!”

Diana raises a brow.

“Ellie, stop biting the damn furniture! You’re too young to be traveling the world, damn it!” Dante shouts, trying to pry his sister away from the open window.

Ellie, utterly unbothered, swats at him with surprising force. “No! Wanna go to Greece! Lemme go!”

“You’re not going into the ocean, dammit!” Dante snaps back, only to yelp when Ellie plants a solid kick to his face.

Diana watches, unimpressed but unsurprised, as Dante stumbles. That moment of lost balance is all Ellie needs—wiggling free, she makes a determined beeline right out the window.

Diana sighs. Enough of that.

She catches Ellie by the waist with ease, pulling her back into the penthouse before she can so much as dangle a foot into open air. “Not yet, little one,” Diana says, tone firm but gentle. “As your brother said, you are far too young. Perhaps when you are eight, like Daniel, I shall permit it.”

Ellie whines loudly, puffing out her cheeks and attempting to push against Diana’s hold. It’s adorable, really—her tiny hands barely make an impact against Diana’s chest. Realizing resistance is futile, Ellie huffs and goes limp in her mother’s arms, a dramatic display of defiance.

Diana is unfazed. With one arm, she holds Ellie effortlessly, and with the other, she reaches out to help Dante up.

“Did I take too long?” she asks, amused.

“If you did, she’d already be by the coast,” Dante grumbles, rubbing his face and glaring at Ellie, who resolutely avoids his gaze.

Diana chuckles. It is never dull in this household.

Wraith and Phantom make their entrance as they always do—silently, effortlessly, and unmistakably theirs. They do not linger in the shadow of the League as sidekicks often do, nor do they stand beside any other hero. They are with her and her alone.

The League, naturally, takes notice.

Their presence is striking, their power undeniable. Even their attire contrasts sharply with Diana’s own. Where she stands adorned in gold, red, and blue, they are shrouded in black and white, their cloaks shifting like the cosmos itself. Danny—Phantom—wears the void, an expanse of endless cold that seems to devour the light around it. Dante—Wraith—holds within his cloak the heat of a dying star, the fury of a sun on the brink of collapse.

And then, of course, there are their abilities.

Dante calls forth fire from the earth with a mere flick of his wrist, the ground obeying his command as flames rage in his wake. Danny summons ice from the sky, turning the battlefield into his frozen domain. Opposites in nearly every way, yet when they fight, it is seamless, an unrelenting force that none can withstand.

Barry whistles, watching as Wraith effortlessly hurls the latest villain skyward, only for Phantom to snatch them mid-air and slam them back into the ground with a force that rattles the street. "Okay, lady, you've got two concerningly powerful kids there," he laughs, though the nervous edge in his voice betrays his unease.

Batman, ever observant, merely nods. "Exceptional technique," he notes. "Did you train them yourself?"

Diana crosses her arms, watching as Phantom and Wraith move with fluid precision, their synergy as natural as breathing. "Somewhat," she admits. "They had exceptional mentors before arriving in this world, but I had to reteach them certain things after their transition."

Superman drifts closer, eyes narrowing slightly as he watches the two finish subduing their opponent. Yet their work is not done—Phantom immediately turns to the civilians, kneeling to comfort frightened children, his expression softening. Wraith, meanwhile, sets to repairing the damage they’ve left behind, a flick of his hand mending fractured pavement.

"Amazing," Clark murmurs. "So they’re from another world?"

"Another dimension," Diana corrects, carefully choosing her words. "They were sent here for their well-being. It would be best if you do not pry into their origins. It has been... difficult for them. Leaving home was not their choice."

A quiet understanding passes between them.

After a beat, Batman hums. "Would it be beneficial to introduce them to the others? The Titans, perhaps? They are younger than most of our younger heroes, but it may help them to have peers outside of us."

Diana watches as Wraith floats down beside Phantom, producing a small, unharmed kitten from seemingly nowhere and handing it to a tearful child. The girl’s sniffles quiet as she clutches the creature, Phantom ruffling her hair with an encouraging smile.

A rare warmth spreads in Diana’s chest.

She considers Batman’s words, then smiles. "That would be nice," she agrees. "It would make my day knowing my apprentices are given the chance to make friends."

Althought the prospect would solely depend on the boys' decision. Ellie would join in the vigilantism soon enough but for now...

"Παιδιά! Ελάτε εδώ!" (Kids! Come here!) Diana beckoned them towards her and the two half-ghosts were quick to move. Wraith floated towards her while Phantom slipped into a portal appeared at her side.

"Batman suggested I introduce you to the younger heroes. The Titans—they are led by Batman's protoge, Robin."

"The colorful one?" Phantom's face was hidden but Diana could tell his face was already scrunched up.

"Yes," she sighed, "The colorful one."

"I wanna meet them!" Phantom eagerly said, "Isn't your sister there? Can we meet her too? Ooh! And a speedster!"

Again, Dante looked utterly aghast when the speedster was mentioned.

Alas, this will do.

So there was a problem.

It turned out Ellie had become more unstable, and ended up having to retreat into her core. Frostbite explained to him how he had to carry her in himself, similar to human pregnancy, but a little more Eldritch.

Having a de aged Dan thrown in the mix, since Clockwork had de aged him to almost two years old, and his parents kicking him out after finding out about him being a halfa? Everything was a mess. Thankfully, clockwork was able to arrange for him to go to school in Gotham, even arranging fake records for him and Dan, now known as Dante, and enrolling him in school while Dante would be babysat by Lady Gotham. Now known as Danny Mortem, he was enrolled in Gotham Academy, and ready to attend until Ellie was born.(Clockwork promised him he’d only have to take a week off, that would be easily explained by the flu.)

Damian was very suspicious of his new classmate.

I adore how Dante just oozes little bro energy. Like, take this page from the Visions of V manga, which happens after Dante has been pestering Vergil to pay attention to him:

Vergil stomps him into the ground so hard he starts bleeding from his mouth. Vergil slammed his foot into his chest not his face, which means Vergil probably hit him hard enough to cause some serious internal bleeding if there's blood coming from his mouth.

And Dante's only reaction is "Yes, excellent, big brother is finally doing exactly what I wanted >:D"

SEE YOU TOMORROW 𓂃 ࣪˖ ཐིཋྀ

── DANTE X F!READER

To say Vergil was suspicious of Dante would be not odd thing considering the same Dante who would give random excuses when ask to babysit Nero was now suddenly taking him daily for walk.

While Dante was a good uncle and took interest in his nephew, he wasn't much interested in playing or doing anything that required his physical moment.

"Okay Nero, it's time for walk with uncle. Say bye to your daddy." Dante waved from one of little boy's hand who give his daddy blank stare. Vergil wondered if he should enquire his doubts or not but his decision took so long and Dante was already gone.

"Now, now let's see if your aunt reached or not?" Dante narrated to the baby Nero who give him a disinterested look and move his gaze around the park: watching some ladies talk: kids playing; then his gaze fall on you.

"What is it little man?" Dante questioned Nero's gibberish words and then follow the moment of his hands─oh it was you.

"So you approved her, right?" And without much hesitation Dante walk towards where you were but acting like he didn't see you and was focused on handling Nero.

"What's all this excitement is for?" He laughed holding him mid air as Nero still stare and move his hands towards you which you catch your attention and you pass him a smile as you started to walk towards him much to happiness of both Nero and Dante.

"Hello baby." You cooed to Nero who was giggling on the sight of you,"Damn boy you be taking all attention now, huhh." Dante playfully complaint as you give him an amused look.

"Isn't your uncle even more baby then you, baby?" You said to Nero but your eyes were focused on Dante. Dante grinned today you were being respond to his hints, was he finally progressing with you.

Nero started to pull his hands towards you, indicating he wanted to be pick by you to which you happily obliged and he quickly snuggled into your arms once Dante hand him over.

"Let's walk around a bit." You suggested to which Dante happily agreed, feeling the stars on his side today,"Wow what good deeds am I getting rewarded for today?" He said as you both started to walk side-by-side,"I don't know maybe being a good uncle." You joked as you rub your cheek against Nero who in response laughed and grab your cheeks.

Dante grinned, thankfully for the day Vergil forced him to take Nero out for walk as it was what that lead him to the woman who stole his heart.

Dante still remember how he was getting tired up holding Nero in arms; not physically but rather mentally so he just put the little guy down so he could move his body a bit.

One moment he was observing Nero and his funny steps next moment he was surrounded by ladies─who question him one after and other and when he was able to escape them, Nero wasn't in his sight anymore.

A panic rise in his chest as his eyes started to searched for his little body. He was barely taking a step before? Where did he go in just a second? Did someone took him? His blood ran cold on mere thought of it.

"Is he yours?" He turns face to face with you, holding Nero in your arms and the said boy being all comfortable there like he did not give his uncle almost a heart attack.

"Sure is. Come on buddy." He open his arms with a exhausted smile but hide his face in your neck and refused to leave your for next one hour and now you were suck holding him and simultaneously chatting with his talkative uncle.

That one hour was blessing to Dante. He could never believe he would meet a woman he would be so attracted to. From the way you talk about society to way you would match his humour and that's how daily uncle-nephew walk started.

Through you initially were wary of Dante, the first time you were stuck with him due to Nero but soon you find yourself being interested in his jokes and his humourous flirting.

Before now you often act like you weren't expecting the uncle-nephew duo but now you felt it was right time to show you were also starting to look forward for them or especially him - Dante. (Don't tell Nero tho)

That day was supposed to be your one time reconnecting with nature but thanks to them now it was a daily occurance.

Both of your feelings were there yet you both treat them lightly and just enjoy the moment.

Maybe one day there will be confession. Maybe there won't be.

You just know that even tomorrow you guys will be meeting here.

"Shouldn't you leave a goodbye kiss?" You rise a eyebrow on hearing the bold suggestion from Dante,"To Nero." He quickly added with a grin like he was messing with you,"Or it could be me too." You pass him a flirtatious smile but still rejected the later statement, saying you prefer the more cuter guy here, who was Nero.

Dante pretend to be hurt but his eyes still stare at you with that dazzling look as he hold the Nero in middle as both of you lean in to kiss his chubby cheeks.

"See you tomorrow. . .Nero." You both simultaneously kissed his cheeks as he let out a delightful noise.

"I think she meant that last statement for me." Dante grinned as he look at your figure which was getting farther and farther to which's response Nero pulled his cheeks like he did not like Dante's assumption.

"I am seeing how aggressive you are getting for that woman to your own blood. How will your dad feel that you choose her over your blood?" Dante cried to Nero in dramatic way who give him a blank blink.

"Let's come again tomorrow."

[terriblechickenhousebuilder]

do you think dante was scared to fall in love. he felt it happening and it terrified him. but he couldn't stop it.

everyone who he ever loved left him. he'll never forget the unfamiliar look in his mama's eyes when he saw her for the last time. the scornful his expression his father wore and a 'stranger' disrupting his day. or the day lord aphmau disappeared, taking his brothers-in-arms too. he waited, and they returned, but they weren't the same people he once knew.

so when he falls in love with nana, he thinks she'll leave too. it's not a question of if, but when. it takes years until he finally begins to get over the fear. a daughter, and later a son, and dante is finally, at last convinced that maybe, this time will be different. the world wont forget him.

and the day gene comes, the day she asks "do i know you?" proves everything he ever feared. he begs and pleads with her, the same way he did his parents, the same he did with irene each night to just bring his friends back, please

dante's destiny is to be forgotten
