Ominous black smoke billows up towards the clouds, increasing in volume by the second. It seemingly takes the shape of a giant hand, first to attract her attention and subsequently to pluck her from the sky. A fire rages below on an enormous oil tanker off the shores of Puerto Rico. An ecological disaster is imminent unless a miracle is forthcoming. Fortunately, she happens to be in the area code.
Wonder Woman flies above the Caribbean islands on her way to America. She is responding to a triple priority Justice League alert, the most critical of emergencies that requires the entire membership to address. Although her presence is vital, she will be momentarily delayed. The oil fire must be extinguished immediately and in her judgment this takes precedence over the JLA signal.
The Amazon slows her invisible plane as she arrives directly above the tanker. She disembarks from her wondrous aircraft and descends through the smoke to the deck below. Upon reaching the ship, it is now apparent what has happened. A safety patrol helicopter crash landed onto the vessel and exploded on impact. Flames are quickly spreading throughout the tanker and should soon reach the crude oil stored underneath.
Diana knows she must act fast. What remains of the helicopter is barely recognizable. Clearly no hope remains for any persons unfortunate enough to have been on board, hence there is no need to treat the craft gingerly. The super heroine whips out her glowing golden lasso. With a swiftness barely discernible to the naked eye, she snares the white-hot wreckage, pulls it free from the tanker deck and hurls it two miles away from the port side of the ship. The residual flames on the deck are easily snuffed out by a vacuum created by the Amazon's super speed.
