• Athena wanted nothing more than to raise Clara and live in peace after all she had endured as a hero. She had wanted to keep Clara away from being a super hero, because of all the crap she had gone through, thus she never told Clara about her past, her powers, or being a super hero. HOWEVER, when Athena finds out that Clara had been recruited and joined N.U.D.E. to become the new 8th Wonder, she doesn't confront her and force her to stop. Instead she keeps the secret for as long as she can, and even protects, supports, and guides her from the shadows (in a good way).
• At one point, Clara is facing a villain whose "power" is a special camera that glimpses the subject's past for the most embarrassing moments or juiciest secrets, and then posts them on the internet. The villain gives the ultimatum that either Clara surrenders to her (which means she herself would be photographed and exposed to the public) OR she was going to release the data for 10,000 civilians. This is one of the first times that Clara feels genuinely helpless and unsure of what she can or should do, but it also leads into some of THE most heartwarming moments of the entire series:
  • While she's contemplating her decision at school, she sees there are many girls (including her classmates) who want to protect her (8th Wonder) rather than have her surrender.
  • She then hears about how someone who was exposed by the villain already had attempted to commit suicide, but was luckily rescued and recovering in a hospital, this of course makes her feel awful, but as she's sitting down worrying about what to do, she notices that her mother had packed her some Godiva Chocolates... This leads her to her answer. She even calls Athena to tell her she appreciates her for looking out for her.
  • When she shows up to surrender to the villain, she walks like she's heading to the gallows, but then a large crowd of people (mostly women) dressed as 8th Wonder gather around her, and they ALL claim to be THE 8th Wonder, in a unanimous effort to protect the real one.
  • Including an adorable little girl that Clara had saved earlier in the series, who comes up to her and holds her hand with a huge smile on her face, and this all drives Clara to tears (of joy), knowing that she had made the right decision.
  • LASTLY, is when the villain is riiiiiight about to take a photo of the crowd, including Clara, Athena appears in full 8th Wonder attire, revealing that SHE truly is the REAL 8th Wonder.
• Athena's recounting(s) of her husband BM the Shooter are rather touching, and definitely show that she loved him deeply.
