Becca flies the invisible plane at a great speed

Hippolyta "This vessel, it reminds me of Pegasus. Even more so than Diana described. A fabulous horse that you were lucky to meet"

Becca "Indeed"

Hippolyta then yawns and massages her forehead

Becca "You alright"

Hippolyta "Just nauseous. Centuries of riding on flying horses did not prepare me to sit in this jet. Despite your smooth flying"

Becca "Well flying is not for everyone, I have some tablets there"

Hippolyta opens it and sees a photo of Diana and Becca. A selfie of them in a cute frame where they lean onto each other. Becca looks 

Becca "We took that in a place called Winnipeg, not too far from our home. We like the quiet places"

Hippolyta "It's a beautiful photo"

Hippolyta begins to tear up and kisses the photo "We will rescue you my daughter, hang in there"

Becca "We're close, how do we approach?"

Hippolyta "The peak of Mount Olympus opens a gateway to the gods. Not everyone can access it, but with enough power, determination and strength- it acts as a portal. Circe will challenge the gods so you need to drop me near the peak so I can stop her. What you need to do is to keep the public out of our fight. Diana tells me you have saved lives like this. She would have also stressed your importance in this role and how grateful she is. So once again, humanity relies on you"

Becca nods "But what if I reach the peak and pray for Diana to return?" That can save her life and  prevents you from absorbing the Hecate. Surely that should be the way"

Hippolyta "I admire your passion but like I said, you would be lucky for the gods to even listen let alone pay attention. They have strict laws and work in mysterious ways. We need to focus on stopping Circe, freeing my daughter and keeping humanity safe. It is sad we did not get to spend much time together Becca but know this, even in my inevitable final moments, I love you like my daughter. Same sentiments with my sisters and my new little one Donna. You are a true Amazon and I am honored to have you in my life. Take care of Diana and never lose this love"

Hippolyta kisses Becca on the cheek as she tears up

Becca "Is that Circe?"

Hippolyta "It is, so we initiate our plan. Keep those hikers away and land the plane in a safe place. I shall jump and confront her head on. Once I kill her and absorb the Hecate, I'll bring back Diana and only then you must return to us. Maybe we can have a final goodbye but I need you to stay away from the battle, that is imperative"

Becca "Understood"

Becca opens the door and Hippolyta hangs out 

Hippolyta "Stay safe dear Becca"

Hippolyta jumps and lands in front of Circe

Circe "Well look at this, the queen who lost her wife and daughter"

Hippolyta "My dear Diana is not gone forever. Not if I kill you and destroy the curse of Hecate which is what I should have done centuries ago"

Circe "But you will die too"

Hippolyta "So be it!"

They engage in vicious combat. The fight goes on and on and on. Meanwhile Becca is directing people away but sees more purple zealots. She gets her gun and fires at them, but they magic bow and arrows and return fire. 

Diana is also getting wounded by Hecate and struggles to keep up with her

Hecate "Your mother and lover are in Mount Olympus, trying to hatch a devious plan to end Circe in favor of your return!"

Diana "You can stop this still. Assist me and my family, we can take down Circe in a peaceful manner. Return the daughter to her rightful mother"

Hecate "You wish to help Circe, even after what she did to you?"

Diana "Don't raise your hand at all, until you first extend it!"

Hecate "You are naive child! Even more naive than your pathetic lover, who genuinely thinks she can initiate the Prayer of Olympus to rescue you!"

Diana "You underestimate my Becca"

Hecate "Guess I need to hurry your death here!"

They fights resume. Circe and Hippolyta wounding each other whilst Diana evades Hecate's attacks. Becca has evacuated the people and shot all the zealots. She then looks up to the peak of the mountain and runs up with all her strength

Circe "Attempting to kill me is futile"

Hippolyta "Then bring back my daughter, we can do things a different way!"

Circe "Never!"

They fight as Becca makes her way to the peak. She sees a small light in the clouds and is on her knees

Becca "I come before you, a mere woman, who is ready to sacrifice it all in order to save my greatest love. I do not seek personal fulfilment but seek the return of the universe's savior. The woman who restored balance, who spread peace, who defeated the God of War. The one who you are indebted to! The one you blessed to be the truth symbol of this soil! The woman who was born from clay out of mothers love, destined to be princess of the Amazons! She has done a lot for you gods! She has given everything for humanity! Now you need to uphold your values. You have been silent for too long. You have been absent for centuries, whilst the Amazons stepped in selflessly. The very least you can do is to allow the delegates to continue their duties! Bring back Diana of Themyscira"

Becca then grabs a knife and cuts her palm offering blood

Becca "Do what you must with my life or my blood! I was never one to believe in god nor seek to serve religion but I am ready to atone for any sins for the betterment of this world! I shall do more than praying. I will be of any service you demand, all I ask is for Diana to return from Hecate's prison!"

The small light then flickers whilst Diana and Hippolyta resume their fights. Circe then grabs Hippolyta's sword and stabs it through her

Circe "Just like last time, in the same place"

Circe runs it deeper into Hippolyta's body and she collapses. Circe then grabs Hippolyta's head whilst Diana is struggling against the Hecate

Hecate "Your mother has failed and shall die very soon! Your lover has attempted to pray to the gods but like always they have abandoned you all! Now you will die here, whilst your mother dies up there. The lineage of Hippolyta will cease to exist, my daughter will remain in my arms!"

Diana begins to faint but a bright light shines on her
