I'm almost completely out of breath. This guy is crazy. He's so fast! Where is that stupid cat? He should have been here a half an hour ago! I can't take this guy on my own.
"Oh Ladybug. You'll never catch me. You should just give up and give me your miraculous." I don't even know what his deal is. His name is Lightspeed, which I guess means he is faster than the speed of light? I can see him, but his bright colored suit does help me keep an eye on him.
"Over my dead body!" I get out my magic yo-yo and throw it to the nearest light post. Since I don't have the upper hand on the ground maybe I'll have a chance in the sky. As soon as it hooks on, I leap off and chase him.
"Oh ladybug, you think going up will give you the upper hand?" He says, and chuckles while going even faster down the street.
"Darn it". I say. I land on a nearby roof. I need to catch my breath.
"It looks like you need my help after all." A familiar voice purrs behind me. I turn in the direction of the voice and see the face that belongs to Chat Noir, my partner.
"Where in the world were you? I have been battling this guy for, like, ever!" I yell at him.
"What? I was busy. Plus, I like watching you go solo. You look fantastic today by the way m'lady." He coos. Ugg. I can't do this now. I look away from him.
"Aww, I'm sorry. Please forgive me. I'll never do it again!" He says. He folds his hands together and give me baby doll eyes. I look into them. Curse my weakness for baby doll eyes.
"It's fine as long as it never happens again." I point at him. He smirks at me. "Your wish is my command m'lady."
"So what's up with Mr. Speedster?"
"His name is Lightspeed, he can go extremely fast, so be careful. I've almost gotten him a couple of times, but I would barely miss him."
"Where is his akuma?"
"Most likely in his shoes. The faster he goes, his shoes changes colors."
"Hmmmm. Do you think that this Light guy knows that I'm on the battle field yet?" He asks deep in thought.
"Maybe. I don't think so though." I say.
"Okay, I might have a plan. Why don't you meet me at the park? Oh, and bring Lightspeed with you. Not as like a date or anything though."
"All right." Is all I can say. I immediately spring into action, completely ignoring that last comment. I run and jump roof to roof leaving Chat behind.
As I'm running, I suddenly hear a scream coming from the park. I really hope that it's exactly what I think it is.
As I approach the park I can see a brightly colored circle. The closer I get I see that it was actually Lightspeed repeatedly circling a man in a running costume.
"Please stop!" The victim screamed.
"Never! I'll suck the oxygen right out of your lungs!" Light says. I have to act really quickly, or it might get bad. I wonder what Chat is up to. Quietly I circle around the park to the area where I can get closest to him. I release my yo-yo and jump over the man and Light. I throw my yo-yo strait at the man in the center and grab him and yanked him from the center.
"No! Curse you Ladybug!" He cries. "Fine, I now realize I can't get him unless I get you. Give me your miraculous!" He shouts. He then sped towards me and before I could blink, he was right in my face.
I scrunched my face for the impact, but there was nothing. I open my eyes to see a silver poll inches from my face. I look up and see Chat sliding down the poll. I look around and see Light not moving on the ground close nearby.
"Am I too late? Sorry, I was in a bit of traffic." He looks down at me with a smirk. When he landed, he clicked a button on his large poll and it degraded to its original size. He gave me a seducing look. I couldn't help but roll my eyes.
Chat focuses back to our foe. "Is he unconscious? He doesn't seem to be moving." He says as he creeps closer to Light.
"I think so." I say. I really hate it when that happens. It is not these people fault that they go rampaging through town. They're just victims of Hawk Moth's wants to rule the world.
Chat pokes Light with his stick. Suddenly, Chat yelps as the unconscious body moves and grabs his metal stick.
In a flash the Light was gone. On edge, Chat and I start franticly looking around for Light.
"Are you looking for something?" A bitter voice says. Me and chat slowly turn around in awe. He is so fast even faster than he was before.
Chat gets out of his shock first. "Hey! Give me my staff! Haven't you heard? Swiper no Swiping!"
"No, I don't think so. I think this tool will actually help me speed up beating you losers! Now give me your miraculous'!"
I have to think fast. If there is any time to use my lucky charm, it would have to be now.
"Lucky Charm!" I scream. I release my weapon and fling it up into the air. There was a bright flash of red and white then an object came falling down.
"A Frisbee? What can I do with a Frisbee?" I ask, more to myself.
"Oh fun! We'll get to play a game of catch, but we'll have to play it quickly." Chat said. He looked at me and gave me a quick wink. Ignoring him, I look around. What to do? Aha.
"Quick Chat, I've got an idea." I start to tell him the plan when we here a loud yawn.
"Common guys. I thought a fight with you guys would be way more animated." Light moaned.
"Sorry to keep you waiting. Don't worry, this fight will end quickly." It's a good thing I told Chat everything because he already started to run straight for Lightspeed. Sadly, his attempt to attack Light was fruitless. Lightspeed hit him with his staff really hard and sent him flailing through the sky.
"Oh Lightspeed! You're not fast at all. I bet you couldn't even catch this Frisbee." I shout ignoring the fact that my partner was just hit across the field and is now probably hurting. I immediately gain the attention of my opponent. I throw the Frisbee as hard as I can to the other side of the park. Just like I hoped, Light quickly followed.
Light caught to Frisbee. "Haha!" He exclaimed. He continued to run to make a turn around. Suddenly, a black figure shot up behind him and gave him a good trip. After a few hard tumbles, Light slid to a stop. Before Lightspeed could regain his stance, Chat was right by his side.
"Cataclysm!" Chat shouts as a black mist of destruction forms into his hands. He quickly took off the mans shoes and turned them into a pile of goo. As the shoes start to melt, the akuma fluttered out.
Before the akuma could get anywhere I whip out my yo-yo. "No more evil doing for you, little akuma!" I touch the yo-yo and it shown a bright light as it opened. I fling my yo-yo around me a few times. "Time to de-evilize!" I shout. I then release my yo-yo and catch the akuma while in mid-flight. "Gocha!"
I then touch the closed yo-yo and release the now pure white butterfly. "Bye-bye little butterfly." I say as I wave it good-bye.
"Miraculous Ladybug!" I cheer as I pick up the Frisbee and throw it into the sky. There was a flash of red and white that flew in every direction to repair everything that just happened. I look at Lighspeed as he turns back into his original self.
"Pound it" Chat and I say in union while fist bumping.
"W-where am I?" The confused man asked. I help him up to his feet.
"Are you okay? You were just akumatized. What made you so upset?" I ask him.
"W-well, you see. I was in a race earlier, and I was about to win, but another racer jumped in front of me, forcing me to trip over myself and made me completely lose the race." He says. He looks down ashamed and upset.
"Hey now, it's okay. Races are made for fun right? It's important to remember good sportsmanship."
"Yeah, that's right. Thanks Ladybug. Sorry for everything." He says before running off.
"I'm not sure if it's the run or you that just took my breath away." Chat says as I look at him. Geez, this guy. I hear both mine and his miraculous' beep.
"Oh, well it looks like it's time to go. I guess I'll catch you later." I say about to go. Suddenly Chat grabs my arm.
"Hey, so, I was wondering if I can see you again later. Like, the real you." He says.
"Chat, you already know the answer to that." I say back. Chat lets go of my arm and becomes abruptly super serious.
"Well, it's just been a long time that we've been fighting together. I think it's about time we actually got to know each other." Chat says, a small fake smile on his face.
"Chat, you know I can't do that. Our kwami's said we can't."
"But what if one of us get captured by Hawk Moth, or gets akumatized? I would like to know so I can know when I'll be working alone. Plus, what if we know each other outside of the suits? And…" Chat continues on for a bit on different what ifs and different unrealistic circumstances that won't ever happen that would need him to know my identity. I start to get anxious when I hear our miraculous's beep again. Before he started saying something else I grabbed his arms, making him immediately stop in his tracks.
I look into his emerald eyes. "Chat you know that would never happen. I appreciate it that you're worried." At this Chat relaxes his arms and looks down. Wow, he was super tense. He must be serious about this.
"It's just that, I just want to keep you safe at all times." He says. He looks back up at me, a little dust of pink on his cheeks.
"Chat…" I sigh. "You know it will only be a matter of time before one of us find the other out. Be patient." Chat doesn't react at all. I feel bad. Oh, I got an idea to cheer him up.
"How about if you find me out, I'll allow you to take me out on a date." I say. As soon as those words popped out of my mouth, I regretted it. His reaction was immediate. He had the hugest smile on his face and hope in his eyes. 'Oh boy, I'm in for it' I say to myself.
"Really you mean it?" Chat asks, grabbing my hands.
"Yeah yeah. But I don't think you ever will." I reply. I hear another beep from my miraculous. I panic. "Gatta go. I'll see you next time." Before I leave, Chat kisses my hand.
"Until next time, m'lady." He then runs in the opposite direction. I watch as he disappears down the street, then I race back to my house.
