22 Chapter 22: Troubled Diana (1/2)

○●○●Diana's Perspective○●○●

Something odd has been happening around me for a while now. A few days ago Krius brought me back to Themyscara but then he disappeared.

I figured he went back to the mansion for whatever reason but he left his clone as a substitute. He didn't know that I could tell the difference between the real one and the clone.

The clone interacted with everyone normally, he trained with us and explored Themyscara as the real one would so no one would think that he was a clone.

My mother was acting a bit odd as well. When we first came back she seemed very angry and wanted to talk to Krius alone. As I was exiting the room, I noticed something strange. The way she was looking at Krius was really weird.

She didn't express it in her speech but it could be seen in her eyes. I thought it was just in my head and so I didn't think much of it.

But the next day I noticed something else. My mother Hippolyta was also missing and no one else noticed. Well, she wasn't exactly missing, she was there but it was the same situation as Krius. A clone was most likely.

I saw before that Krius's clones can change their appearance so that was most likely the case but why? Why would Krius pretend to be my mother? What happened to my real mother? I was getting worried thinking about such matters.

I didn't confront the clone because I knew that wouldn't be the right choice. I needed to wait for the real one to come back. I will have to confront him after making sure mother was alright.

A few days later...

I enjoyed my time with Hippolyta to the fullest but she was getting more and more worried about Themyscara every day.

These past few days I also worked on making the barrier devices but so far I had only made one them. I made it in the shape of a special kind of ring. I will get Diana to test it out first.

”Are you prepared yet?”

It was Hippolyta. She was wearing the white cloth she wore when she first got here. She decided to leave all the other clothes I had gotten her here which was understandable. It would have been very strange for the Amazons if she showed up wearing those clothes. I'm definitely going to bring her here again though.

”Yeah, I'm prepared. Let's go.” I grabbed Hippolyta by her waist and teleported to her room in Themyscara. It looked the same as it did when I came here the first time. The clones were also here.
