Miraculous Ladybug
Chapter 1
(Eight years in the future)
It was early evening in the streets of Paris, as a large black cat jumped from building to building followed by a figure in a red suit with black spots. The two superheroes were chasing an old enemy that they had thought they had defeated already. However there was more to the problem than just the enemy. Both of the heroes had been walking in their normal forms when they came to a bench in front of the water fountain earlier that day before the attack.
"Hey Mari, do you love me?"
"What kind of question is that Adrien?" she asked a little annoyed. Everything that day had been going great until he asked that. "You know I do. Why?"
"Not just because I have money?"
"No Adrien why would you ask something like that?"
"Marinette…" Adrien started
"I mean we've been dating since tenth grade and you ask me something like that?!" Marinette asked angrily, but before Adrien could explain there was a loud collapse and the fountain began to crumble.
"What's this a lovers quarrel?" asked a figure in black. One that the two knew well.
"Shadow Walker?" Marinette asked confused. "That's not possible."
"Not quiet, after all you never did capture me. I just disappeared and you used that damn charm of yours to set everything back to normal, but you won't this time." she said smiling.
"And why is that?" Adrien asked walking standing in front of Marinette. He remembered well what Shadow Walker's powers were and he wasn't about to let anything happen to Marinette.
"Because I have something you want, Ladybug." Shadow Walker said throwing a picture on the ground. A picture of her best friend Alya.
"Leave her out of this." Marinette said
"Come get her." Shadow said and she took off, as Marinette went to transform, but Adrien stopped her before she could finish.
"Mari, wait, we can't just transform here. There's too many people." he said and she nodded knowing he was right. Though she was still angry with him, he was right. They couldn't transform in front of the public eye. Adrien sighed as the two ran to find a place to change. Something was bothering him. Alya was not only Marinette's best friend but she also had the fox Miraculous. Which meant she was also a hero. She shouldn't have been so easy to capture.
"Something wrong?" Marinette asked still angry, he could tell.
"I was just thinking that I hope this isn't a trap." Adrien told her sadly. Had Shadow Walker not interrupted, Marinette would know why he asked what he did and why. "I mean, like us, Alya has a Miraculous and she isn't that easy to capture. So how did Shadow Walker get her?"
"It doesn't matter I'm going with or without you Adrien." Marinette said crossing her arms. "TIKKI SPOTS ON!" she shouted and began to transform in to her super hero persona, Ladybug.
Adrien sighed then he shouted "PLAGG CLAWS OUT!" and also transformed into Cat Noir.
"They actually feel for it." Shadow Walker said as she watched them come to the warehouse.
'Don't fail me this time. I want Cat Noir and Ladybug's Miraculous.'
"Don't worry Hawk Moth you'll get them and I'll get rid of the two pathetic heroes that have been getting in your way."
"They'll figure it out before you can." said the fox hero as she struggled against her bonds. "And when they do you'll be sorry."
"We'll see about that Tricxy."
"SHADOW WALKER!" Ladybug shouted "Let Tricxy go now."
"Give me your Miraculous and I'll let her go."
"Don't do it Ladybug, she's going to destroy you anyway!" Tricxy shouted
"Shut up!" Shadow Walker shouted destroying Tricxy's shadow.
"No!" Ladybug shouted moving to stop Alya from disappearing, but as she did Shadow Walker grabbed her own shadow and destroyed it as well. Then she moved to get her earrings for Hawk Moth, but as she did she was met with a pole in her chest.
"Don't you dare touch her." Cat Noir said in a deep and anger filled voice, as he walked to Ladybug, turned her on to him and held her as she started to fade.
"Cat, t-take my earrings."
"No Ladybug I can't."
"P-Please take them before Hawk Moth gets them, and I-I'm sorry A-Adrien. I do l-love you for you n-not your money." Marinette said as she gave him her Miraculous.
"Mari…" he said as he began to cry.
"Well not exactly how I planned on getting the Miraculouses, but now that Ladybug is gone you have no chance." Shadow cackled as she ran off leaving Adrien to weep for his love.
"This isn't over Shadow. I will stop you, somehow." Adrien said to himself as he detransformed sometime after Shadow Walker had left. Even after all this time he didn't know what it was that caused the Akumatized victim. But he was going to find out, somehow and save Marinette.
"Adrien…?" a voice asked from behind him causing him to quickly turn around forgetting he didn't have his powers at the moment, and saw a figure dressed as if she were a wolf.
"Who are you?" he asked the figure
"It's not possible." Tikki said shocked to see the legendary Miraculous of the wolf. "I thought that the Wolf Miraculous was lost forever."
"No Tikki, I have simply been moving from time to time. I am Mirika, Adrien and I can help you save your friends and Ladybug."
"How?"
"The same way Ladybug saved you when you faced Timebreaker. You may not remember it, but when she and you faced her before you leaped in front of Ladybug in order to stop Timebreaker from defeating her."
"So that's why she said my life depended on it."
"Yes. I can send you to the past, before you faced Shadow Walker the first time, but it will be up to you to defeat her."
"What do I do?" Adrien asked standing up
"You find out what caused her to transform and if possible stop it. If you can't stop the Akumatation, find your past self and Ladybug, fight with them to stop her. But whatever you do, don't tell Ladybug or your past self what happened here. Otherwise…"
"He won't stop protecting her and he would get defeated instead."
"Exactly. Now take this Key." Mirika said handing him a key that had two wings but both were different. "This is how you get back and forth through time. Follow you heart where you want to go, and you'll get there. I'll freeze time here long enough for you to save the future, and Ladybug. Good luck."
"Thanks Mirika. But what about the Ladybug Miraculous?"
"Take them with you. This way he can't get them." Mirika told him. "Now go."
"Right PLAGG CLAWS OUT!" he shouted and transformed once more, then he held the key out and watched as it opened a portal. Adrien sighed then ran though it, as Mirika smiled.
"Good luck father." she said as she detransformed herself. "I hope I did the right think Karina."
"I think you did Mirika, besides this way they have a chance to stop this from even happening and save the world."
"I hope so." Mirika said as she gathered both Marinette and Alya in her time bubbles, then took them to her master.
"Has he left?"
"Yes master."
"Let us pray that he doesn't mess up this time." the master said as he took the two heroes and placed them in a shelter that would return them to their time as soon as it was righted again. Mirika watched as he took her mother, and she hoped her father wouldn't mess up either. If he did then she would never exist and the Wolf Miraculous would be lost forever, and that was something she couldn't let happen.
"Mirika I want you to follow him. I have the power to keep everything as it is and you need to go back to make sure that the two past versions of your parents get where they need to be."
"How?"
"I will send you back farther than Adrien went. Back to when they were in eleventh grade."
"But Cat Noir here knows what I look like."
"Yes as Mirika, your wolf form not as Nalika, your human form."
"I see master."
"Go and aid them when ever possible. But first go and see Master Fu. Explain everything and tell him what has happened."
"Yes Master." she said, and she quickly ran through a portal.
"Good luck child of Cat Noir and Ladybug." Master Fu chuckled as she ran off and he hoped that he did correctly.
