It all started with one question...
"Tikki, have you ever been friends with other humans that aren't Ladybugs?" Marinette asked in her room one night,
"there was one, Marinette, but that was in the past!" Tikki said half-avoiding the question, then a memory surfaced...
Flashback.
"Hey Tikki, I know you like sweet things so why don't you share these cookies with me?" A boy asked,
"okay" Tikki chirped,
Tikki tried them and almost did a somersault in the air, she started scarfing them down, by the time she was finished she realised something,
"I am so sorry! You didn't get to eat any cookies!" Tikki apologised profusely,
"I'm okay Tikki, it was obvious you enjoyed them" the boy chuckled,
that was the day cookies became Tikki's favourite food...
Flashback end.
Marinette responded with a "mmhm" and started drawing her latest sowing project, unaware of the magnitude that the question contained...
In Adrien's room,
"kid, I need cheeeeeese! Please i'll DIE without my sweet camembert!" Plagg begged after not being fed for a whopping two hours,
"geez Plagg have you had actual food before?!" Adrien asked in frustration while doing algebra homework,
that question made Plagg think...
Flashback
"God damn it Plagg, we have no cheese left! If you want food so bad then have other foods, like crackers, sandwiches or something that is NOT cheese!" a boy said to Plagg frustrated,"
"fine, just this ONCE though, got it? I expect cheese next time!" Plagg said while taking some crackers from the boy,
Flashback end.
"nope" Plagg lied,
"figures" Adrien said back,
Adrien arrived at school the next day and fist bumped Nino, like usual
the bell rung, right as Marinette ran in, like usual.
"settle down, class" Miss Bustier said in a sweet voice,
unfortunately for her, no-one listened except for Marinette and Adrien,
"BE QUIET!" she roared, and all heads turned her way startled,
"good" she said in her nice voice, "now today we are learning about legends, your assignment is to write a ancient legend in detail, DO NOT write one if it has little to no information about it. Now to make sure students do not copy my example, I have written about a quite obscure legend, I will read it out to you now. Years ago there was a great drought somewhere far away and with no rain came no crops, and with no crops came no food. So poverty started and poor people who couldn't afford food either died of starvation or killed other people for their food." She paused to let the tension sink in, "after ten years the drought was still going strong, but one day an old man dressed in a blue robe appeared in the middle of a dying town, his eyes glowed and torrential rain started pouring for months before the skies turned to blue once again, the end." she finished, "now questions?"
several hands shot up, and she pointed to Max,
"how is that possible? Science cannot explain it!" Max asked dazzled,
"well can science explain Ladybug and Chat Noir, or the akumas that Hawkmoth sends to terrorise Paris? She said back,
Afterwards she pointed to Adrien and said "last person"
"what is the power that the old man used called?" Adrien asked,
"it is known very vaguely as Aura, Adrien" Miss Bustier said, "now start researching class!"
Marinette was getting ready to leave for the bakery, she looked around there were no people watching so she let out Tikki and questioned "does Aura actually exist Tikki?" She asked,
"it is quite rare but yes it does" Tikki answered,
Marinette nodded, let Tikki in her purse again and started walking home, the question of what Aura actually is, still in her mind.
Unknown to Marinette, Tikki was thinking about Aura too and the only user of it she ever knew...
Flashback.
Plagg, Tikki and a boy were in a secluded street, the issue was the boy was glowing a bright purple aura (pun intended!)
"you're extremely lucky kid! Very few humans have the ability to manipulate aura!" Plagg said in a unusually cheery voice,
"Plagg's right, there's only one human recorded that has abilities even referencing to aura!" Tikki said as well,
Though the boy was confused he nodded and started looking at his body excitedly,
"can you guys teach me teach me how to use this power?" The boy asked
Tikki and Plagg nodded and the lessons started...
Flashback end.
Tikki smiled to herself and giggled at his excitement.
A boy with a hoodie walked into a average hotel,
"how much is a one bedroom apartment each night?" he asked in a husky voice,
"35 euros sir" the receptionist said,
"I'll take it" he said,
"35 euros please" the clerk said,
The boy handed him some crumpled notes and left for the elevator.
Finally, I'm in Paris. The city that Ladybug and Chat Noir protect, and wherever Ladybug and Chat Noir are, Tikki and Plagg are there too. Watch out world, Lucas White is coming.
Author's Note: First chapter done! This story uses the same idea for Aura as The Rise of the Shadow Knight if you haven''t noticed it yet. Adrien unfortunately, won't have the power of aura since this story is not linked storywise to The Rise of the Shadow Knight. I'm excited for what will hppen with this story, but now I gotta juggle The Rise of the Shadow Knight and this one sooo wish me luck! MiraculousDuels out!
