All right, so here's what happened...
It was very early in the morning here, the sun had barely risen and you kids were fast asleep. I had waken up, and decided to take a few moments of peace and go on a walk to plan for the journey ahead. I wasn't planning on being gone long, so I didn't worry about you guys. As I was planning on how we would travel and ways on how I could teach you to use your powers to your full potentials, I realized It would take a VERY large amount of time if I was to try and teach you individually. Then I sparked a grand idea, one that would surely make things much easier. I thought that maybe I could create temporary clones of myself made out of clouds, and then I could one-on-one with all of you individually. That would make things MUCH simpler. The only thing was, I wasn't sure if it was even possible, and I had never attempted to create another living thing before. So this was more like taking a shot in the dark, and for a long while I attempted to create clones. I was unsuccessful, and just ended up making large forms of smoke and wasting my energy. Eventually, I did it. I created a bunch of living clones of myself, relieved, I though that now everything would be running smoothly. Unfortunately, that isn't what happened. The clones I created were apparently incomplete, and their minds only inherited my darker negative thoughts and a killing instinct. All of the clones turned on me at once, and attacked...It wasn't exactly the easiest fight, but the good thing was that once they are killed they turn back into puffs of clouds and smoke. There was quite a lot of them... and many were VERY stubborn. I pretty much spent the past hour killing myself repeatedly. Once I thought I had them all, I noticed that a few of them ran off into the woods. So it took a little more time to hunt them all down. The one I destroyed here was the last of them, I'm pretty sure. If there is one or two more running around, I doubt they'll live very long...the clones are not very bright either... So clone creation needs work, which hopefully I can figure out the bug, and that's pretty much what happened here and why you saw two of me.
Does that make sense?
