BEEP, BEEP, BEEP

Marinette was in her room still sleeping through her own alarm. This girl was able to spring into action on a daily basis to fight villains, so she believes that she earns the right to sleep a little more. However, Tikki was not having it. She was floating over Marinette and shook her head.

"silly girl, she is going to be late for school!"

Tikki floated over to Marinette's ear and said "Wake up!" But it was no use, she was still fast asleep. However, this was when Tikki received a sudden thought and it had brought a smile onto her face. Tikki moved closer to Marinette again and whispered the words "if you are late, you won't be able to see Adrian at his locker like he does every morning". Then after a few seconds Marinette shot out of bed with scared look on her face and accidently knocking Tikki on the floor. Marinette looked over at Tikki on the floor and said "Oops, sorry" before she went on the floor and picking up Tikki.

"Sorry again Tikki!" Marinette smiled whilst rubbing her hand through her hair.

"It's okay, now hurry up if you want to catch up to see Adrian!" Tikki had a cheeked grin on her face and floated onto Marinette's desk. Marinette rushed to grab whatever she can find in her closet that she could see as fashionably acceptable for school. She had pulled on her favourite pink trousers, white top with black jacket. Before she was about to run out of the door, Tikki had reminded her about her backpack. Marinette smiled and grabbed her school bag and tucked away Tikki inside it. The reason why Tikki comes along with Marinette just in case she needed to transform into ladybug during school hours.

As Marinette was rushing her way to school, she stopped in the kitchen first to pick up herself a croissant and then went back running her way to school whilst eating her food. Her phone buzzed and she checked it. It was a text from Alya saying that she was waiting by the school gates for her. Alya was such a great friend Marinette thought, because she was waiting for her to come to school. As Marinette arrived at the front of the school she saw Alya waving at her with her phone is her hand. Alya ran to hug Marinette and shouted "you cannot believe what happened yesterday!"

"What happened?" Marinette looked to her friend as a confused puppy.

"I finally reach 500 followers on my blog!" she shrieked and both Alya and Marinette was fangirling together. They both were discussing how awesome it was that Alya's blog reached 500 already as they were walking into the school and towards their lockers. As both of the girls was taking their books out of their bags, Marinette caught something at the corner of her eye.

It was Adrian! Marinette blushed as she continued to stare over at him. Adrian looked up from his locker and noticed Marinette looking over and gave her a little wave and a wink. Marinette swooned and shut her locker door and she was s dazed from that moment that she didn't realise where she was going.

CRASH

Marinette had fallen over on the floor besides another girl whose books had fallen out of her bag. Marinette blushed from embarrassment and held out her hand. "Heh, sorry about that!" The girl (also known as Cécile Blanc) looked over at Marinette and then to the other students around her. She had noticed them start to laugh at her, so she picked up her books/bag and scurried her away to the classroom. Marinette looked over to the girl and said "well that was awkward..."

Alya came up from behind Marinette and replied "That sure was, now let's go to class".

All the students were taking their seats in the classroom. The teacher was writing on the blackboard with a white chalk and wrote down the word 'Creative writing task. The teacher had turned around to the class and began talking. "Today students we are going to focus on our creative writing assignment and can anyone guess what the topic of the writing task is?"

Cécile was sitting at the back and had a smile on her face. She loved to write stories and poems! She was excited for this work piece. The rest of the classmates was chatting amongst themselves about what they think the topic of the creative project it.

"Romance!" Chloe shouted whilst battering her eyes towards Adrian. Adrian backed away and tried to avoid eye contact with Chloe.

"Hopefully it is fantasy" Marinette whispered to her friend Alya.

The rest of the class started to shout random answers out to the teacher.

"Horror!"

"Tragedy!"

"Adventure"

"Food!"

The teacher settled the class down and shook her head. "good try, but today you are going to focus on conflict and your stories should deal with conflicts" the teacher looked at the clock at said "you have around 10 to 15 minutes to create a short story that is based around conflict and how your character deal with this situation"

The students were busy writing down their plans and creating their stories. Cécile thought she had a good idea in her mind and began writing faster with a smile planted on her face. The teacher was wondering around the classroom and to check up on how her students was doing. She walked behind Cécile and looked down. She was impressed on what she saw so far and smiled. She continued to check on her other student's work.

"Nathanial, what did I say about doodling?" She shook her head. "Get back to work!"

"Sorry…miss!" Nathanial smiled and went back to write his story.

Marinette found it harder to create a good conflict story. She wanted to write about ladybug and chat noir in action and how they both deal with the conflict they face, but she was worried that it could give too much away of a secret identity. She rather keeps her ladybug persona separate from Marinette- the totally normal school girl.

After around 15 minutes has passed the teacher had ordered the class to stop. She asks if any of the students wanted to volunteer but surprisingly no one shot their hand in the air, so this means that the teacher had to choose a student. She looked around the room at the student's nervous faces but her eyes were focused on the girl at the back.

"Cécile Blanc" The teacher had pointed over at the girl "May you come to the front and read you story?"

The class looked over at the girl, as she slowly makes her way to the front whilst clutching onto her book and a pen in her hand. She looked at the class and realized that they are all staring at her. Her hands were shaking that caused her to drop her pen on the floor that made a thud sound. As she was getting the pen she heard a few small laughs on the left side, but she tried to ignore it.

"Anytime you are ready Cécile" The teacher smiled.

Cécile stood up and opened up her book. She took a deep breath and began to read.

"There was f-fire ever-everywhere, it had surro-ro-rounded them..." Cécile started to mumble to rest of the story without realizing. She avoids making eye contact with the class or it would make her feel worse about the situation. However, a blonde idiot was going to do something that would worsen the situation for her.

"Hey, why are mumbling, speak clearly for once!" yelled Chloe. "do you even know how to speak?"

"Maybe the cat got her tongue?" Sabrina laughed.

Marinette stood up and replied "hey, leave her alone!"

Chloe scoffed "obviously the story must be so bad, she just hiding the fact by mumbling" Chloe laughed "let me read my 'better' one instead" Some of the class members chuckled a bit with Sabrina and Chloe.

Cécile rubbed her eyes and said "it-it's not bad, I swear"

"Then why can't you read it like a NORMAL PERSON?!" Chloe snorted.

'Not a normal person'? Cécile thought. Is that how her classmates thought? She felt so stupid and idiotic. Tears began run down the sides of her cheek. The class became silent when they noticed the tears. Adrian walked up to Cécile and put his hand on her shoulder and said "hey, hey, it's okay"

She rubbed her eyes and sniffed.

"Aw is the wittle baby crying now?" Chloe laughed. (she was the only one in the class that was laughing)

"Not now, Chloe!" Yelled Adrian.

Cécile Looked down at her story she wrote. She noticed tear marks on the page. Without hesitation she ripped out the pages of her story and crumpled it up. Cécile pushed Adrian away and threw the crumpled story away in the bin whilst running straight out of the classroom. The classmates stood still and was just staring at the door.

Meanwhile Cécile was running out of the front doors of the school and sat down on the steps of the school. "Maybe Chloe was right, maybe my story did stink" She slammed her face onto her book. "Why does everyone have to be mean, screw them all…"

However what Cécile did not know that her negative energy had been picked up by Hawkmoth!
