"We do not enter the field of battle lightly, neither in heart, nor body, nor mind. Nor do we exit it lightly."

They all walked silently as Hank carried Donna's body into the Tower. Everyone was grieving as they walked behind one another solemnly. Dick had his arm around Harper as she held onto him for dear life.

"We leave a piece of us behind . And sometimes the cost of defending the innocent exceeds what we could ever think to pay."

They all split up to their rooms. Harper shut her door as she grabbed a photo of her and Donna. Bright smiles were decorating their faces as Harper had her arm slung around Donna's shoulders as the girl tried to squirm out of the brunette's clutches. Harper held the photo to her chest as she stared at the photo of the group they had taken on the night of Garth's birthday. Harper placed the photo  down as she collapsed onto the bed and brought her knees to her chest. She buried herself deeper into herself as she cried in pain and sadness for her family.

"There's only one word for this. Sacrifice. And whether it be recognized in the present or in some distant time, or never at all."

It was the day they would be giving Donna's body back to Themyscira, her home. They all wore black as Dawn and Dick helped place the pristine black coffin onto a tray as Harper clutched onto Donna's Lasso, tears threatening to fall as her fingers ran over the ruff material.

Harper handed the lasso to one of the blonde Amazonians before retreating back to Dick who held her hand in his.

They all stood side by side. The survivors. As they watched the sorrowful farewell.

"This is the heroes duty "

Harper had her hand in Dick's as they approached the Amazonian blonde woman.

" Thank you" she said as she stuck out her hand. Dick had shook it but Harper didn't even have the strength to look up from the paving.

" Are they taking her back to Themyscira?" Rachel asked as she stood in front of the couple.

" They have a place for warriors like Donna. Sacred grounds."

" Look I should go with Donna. If anybody can help her it's me." Rachel said as Harper shook her head.

" We all want her back Rachel but-"  Harper grimaced before Rachel cut her off.

" You don't understand. My powers are changing. Getting stronger and, like I think I've actually been inside your head." She said as she looked at Dick. Harper furrowed her eyebrows at the girl." Like I can take your thoughts and bring 'em to life. "

" I've seen you do some amazing things. And considering what's in my head, that's pretty messed up."

Rachel chuckled as Harper cracked a small smile at his response.
