Synopsis

Diana and her three companions arrive at the safe house but all signs point to their comrades having been slain. Suddenly her three companions are killed by the Morrigan’s Amazon thralls. Diana flees but is shot down by Artemis’s arow. A vicious Enyo appears and tells Anann and Bellona she will not be replaced by Diana. Diana evades the Morrigan’s Amazons for a bit, but then is mauled badly by Cheetah. The three Amazon killers are suddenly mind-controlled by another and are forced away from Diana. Unconscious, Diana is unaware that standing over her is none other than her savior, Dr. Psycho.
