*I don't own Riverdale or anything to do with Riverdale, but I do own Diana and her storyline*

Police lights, a river's edge, and a dead twin.

Not typical things a 16-year-old girl should be thinking about, but Diana was far from the average teen girl. As she shuffled through her locker, her thoughts wandered to that early Sunday Morning.

The entire town watched as the late Jason Blossom was dragged from Sweet Water River; his lifeless corpse already in a state of decomposition. In that moment, it wasn't feel that settled into the young woman's stomach. What the raven-haired girl felt was suspicion and utter dread; two feelings that almost always led back to one person.

Her father, Hiram Lodge.

"Could he have had Jason killed?" Diana grimaced at the accusation as she realized how stupid that question was.

As someone who had access to all of her father's business deals, Diana was well aware of how capable Hiram was of murdering in cold blood. So that left only one question.

Why have a 17-year-old boy assassinated?

"Business?" Diana thought as she slammed her locker shut.

But, she didn't even know the Blossom name prior to coming to Riverdale and she had gone through all of her father's dealings. As she rounded a corner, Diana was derailed from her feelings by two baritone voices.

"Is there something you want to tell me pal?" A boy asked, his tone firm in its accusation.

There was a pause before a familiar voice replied "I don't know what you're talking about". The sounds of shuffling paper quickly filled the hallway as Archie continued "I have to get to class". His steps quickly following this sentiment.

Diana waited until she heard the other voice's steps follow those of the carmine haired teen before carefully glancing around the corner, making sure that she wouldn't be caught snooping. Finding no one in the hallway, she rounds the corner.

"This town just gets odder by the day" She alleged then walked into class, completely ready for a day of distractions.

Hello again! I hope this chapter is to your satisfaction.

ALSO, HAVE YOU SEEN THE NEW SEASON OF RIVERDALE? The CW has made a mission to hurt all of the characters I love by the end of this season and I'm not cool with that at all.

Hope you continue to read on, favorite it, and leave comments.

Love Your Beautiful Faces!
