Wonder Woman and Wonder Girl

38

Lydia's POV

Daphne's strong hand continually drags me through the isolating woods of Theymiscara, it feels like I'm a three year old being punished from whatever foolish and careless reason

My feet were dragging themselves on the grassy and dirty, muddy surface

The sun's blinding rays peeked through the trees as the low, quiet breeze whispers through my ears

I could feel her grip tighten each step we take onto the path as my arm aches in pain from Daphne's strong grip

"Would you please release me from your captivity?" I wiggle my arm to loosen her grip,

Daphne immediately stops on her tracks and turns around to meet my eyes, her gray eyes darkening,
"I don't trust you, you'll just run away. Like a coward," she continues to walk, her hand still gripping my arm

"Would you like to explain to me why I'm being taken or no...kidnapped?" A twig snaps! underneath my foot step

"If I were to explain something that is serious, would you be afraid?"  She stops in her tracks once again,

Crows circle above, their cries and endless cawing withers among the isolated forest, their loud cries interrupted the tension between us

"Depends," I simply shrug my shoulders, "Meh, I don't really care. As long as it doesn't involve with me dying, like that girl from this one film. She died from the loss of blood after-,"

Daphne scoffs and, once again, walks with her strong grip dragging me with her

"Can we at least talk? I don't like walking through the woods when it's this quiet. My friend Cassie and I watched this one film at the movie theater, her popcorn bowl spilled everywhere on the seats because the man in a mask- out of nowhere was murdering the teenagers-"

"You're friend sounds reckless,"

"She is not...Well, sure she may be an improvident, careless, and foolish girl but she is a great friend! She bought a CDs of the Ladies Of Thunder, which I absolutely cherish with my whole life!! They're CD songs are so hardcore, I like this one song that's called 'Thinking You Were Me-"

"You talk too much,"

I roll my eyes at Daphne's ignorance,
"My apologies...hey, how come I haven't seen you anywhere or recognized you before? I've never seen you during my time here, are you new?"

"No, I'm usually with my mother. She's the prophet for our gods, and is constantly busy with her work,"

"Oh, so you work alongside with your mother?"

"Yes, I usually don't like to go out, it's a waste of an individual's time,"

A twig snaps! Daphne stops as the woods itself concludes its sound of nature: crows calling, the crash waves of the ocean from a distance, the whispering low wind, trees shaking their green leaves

I observe around to see what she was aware of as Daphne stays vigilant with her eyes watching every movement closely,

"What's-"

"Sh!" Daphne covers my mouth with a hand
