Claws, bubble gums and flirts.
He swiftly turned around the corner, feet thumping hard against the floor as he ran across the school halls. His father's expensive limousine had got stuck in traffic today, due to which Adrien had reached school late. He had history class first today and it was about to start in two minutes.
"I hope Nino saved me a seat," Adrien mumbled under his breath, increasing his running pace.
And suddenly, he bumped into someone. The boy couldn't keep his balance, resulting him and the person to fall back on to the tiled floor with him being on top of the other. With a groan, he placed his palms against the cold floor, pushing his torso a little up from the other and that's when his emerald green eyes met steely gray ones.
She was staring at him and he stared back, arching a blonde eyebrow as she blew out a pink bubble from between her lips.
The bubble popped, Adrien blinking as some of the gum got stuck to the tip of his nose.
"Are you gonna get off me or what?!" The girl snapped, glaring visual daggers at him.
Adrien pushed himself off her, climbing to his feet. "I'm sorry," He offered an apologetic smile, holding a hand towards her. "I didn't see you there."
"Then go get your eyes checked!" The girl snarled, ignoring his hand as she got up.
Her hair was a mess of curls, fiery red locks pulled into a tight ponytail yet some of it still rolled over her pale forehead. Stormy gray eyes were glaring at him as she stood there; wearing a green tee shirt along with a blue jeans skirt.
She reached forward, a golden bracelet wrapped around her wrist as she grabbed the front of his shirt, surprising the boy as she yanked him down so he could adjust with her slightly smaller height. "Listen up, blondie." She growled, "If you ever knock me into again, you're gonna end up with a bloody nose."
Adrien stared with wide eyes, shocked when she pushed him back and then stormed off towards the other side of the hall. He wiped the gum stuck to his nose, "What's her problem?" He frowned, Plagg flying out of his bag.
"I guess she woke up on the wrong side of the bed," The kwami suggested, then smirked. "But you did knock into her very hard, Adrien."
Plagg let out a cry of protest as Adrien grabbed him and stuffed him back into his pocket.

"Good morning, class!" Miss Genevieve chirped, awarding her student a large smile that could make one's cheek ache. Once the students shifted their attention towards her, the biology teacher began again. "Today, we have a new student with us!"
She clasped her hands together, then gestured at her right. "This is your new classmate, Eleanor Steele."
The mentioned girl popped her gum, ignoring how everyone was staring at her. Adrien frowned slightly and Miss Genevieve smiled again, "Why don't you tell us something about yourself, Miss Steele?" She asked softly.
"Sure," The redhead answered, turning to her audience. "Me and my parents just shifted here from New York. My name's Eleanor but I like to be called Ellie." She stuffed her hands into the pockets of her jeans skirt, "I really like races, I sketch sometimes and I'm a black belt in karate."
She lifted her chin up, a smirk curling the corners of her lips upwards. "And if you try something funny with me, then it's probably the last mistake you're gonna make in your life." Ellie grinned cockily, punching a fist into her left hand.
Miss Genevieve stared, then smiled gently. "Er...thank you, Miss Steele. Please take a seat."
"Is it just me or does she look a little crazy?" Nino whispered to Adrien. "Try a lot crazy." Adrien corrected, rolling his eyes.
Behind the two boys, a young blue-haired girl smiled. "She sounds nice." Marinette commented, a gentle smile tugging her lips as Ayla scoffed.
"By nice if you mean absolutely rude, then yeah. She's nice." Ayla snorted, pulling out a pencil as Miss Genevieve began dictating.

"How did my lady's day go?" Chat Noir asked cheekily, smirking as he and Ladybug landed infront of Paris's old antique store.
"It was good," The red cladded heroine said tersely, Chat Noir parting his lips again when she beat him to it. "The akuma's in there." Ladybug informed, quickly jogging into the store, her partner following suit.
Chat Noir couldn't help but point out, "Since when did akuma's started stealing stuff?"
There was a sound of something breaking, followed by a mumbled curse. The two heroes exchanged knowing glances, drawing out their weapons as Ladybug stepped forward. "Who's there?"
Both of them were slightly puzzled as a young female flipped out from behind the counter, a bag filled with antiques dangling off her shoulder.
"She doesn't look like an akuma." Ladybug raised an eyebrow, taking in her appearance.
Her costume was a dull golden, numerous black spots scattered over it. The mask was quite catlike, golden and black striped, highlighting her silver gray eyes. Yellow cat ears stuck out from between her red curly locks that hung freely down her shoulders.
A smirk pulled the ends of her lips upwards and she shifted her weight to the other foot. "Allow me to introduce myself," She began nonchalantly, giving a small bow. "I am Cheetah."
Ladybug pursed her lips, slightly startled as Chat Noir took a daring step forward. "I guess it's time to put you into a cage!" He announced cockily, pouncing on the other feline.
Cheetah stepped aside, a low growl leaving her throat as he yanked the bag off her shoulder. "Looks like you're really slow for a cheetah." He taunted, smirking.
"Give that back!" She hissed, raising her hand in the air.
A yo-yo wounded around her wrist, Ladybug narrowing her eyes. "Why are you stealing antiques?" She demanded, pulling at her yo-yo's string.
Tossing her a cocky smile, Cheetah glanced at the string around her wrist. "So you wanna race with me, huh?" She chuckled, a gleam coming to her eyes.
And suddenly, she had bolted out of the store with such incredible speed that Ladybug literally flew behind her. The thief ran near a street pole before coming to a halt and smirked as Ladybug collided face first into the steel pole, groaning in pain.
Freeing her wrist from the yo-yo's string, Cheetah looked around for Ladybug's partner when someone cleared their throat. Her gaze moved towards the sound, landing on Chat Noir who smiled innocently, "Looking for me?" He sang, throwing the bag away.
He pulled out his bo-staff, twirling it expertly before whipping it at her. "Gotta say, you're really fast." The boy flung his staff in her direction.
She ducked his blow, "Thanks." Cheetah grinned, then gasped, pointing behind the boy. "Oh my God! Is that a UFO?!"
Puzzled, Chat Noir instantly whirled around, "Where?!"
He wasn't expecting it as she delivered a spin kick to his cheek. Slamming into a building's wall, he groaned, dropping down beside the antique bag. "Hey!" Chat Noir glared, "That wasn't fair!"
She placed her hands on hips, amused. "Well, duh! I'm a Cheetah." The redhead pulled out a black whip, snapping it in the air before throwing it forward, the whip coiling around his forearm.
"I'm supposed to cheat!" Cheetah grinned, tightening her other hand into a fist and yanked him towards herself. Her fist crashed into his jaw, sending him back into the wall again.
Rolling her eyes, she walked infront of him, picking up her bag of stolen goods. Chat Noir moaned softly, feeling his jaw ache when a hand gently lifted his chin up, his green eyes meeting a pair of gray ones.
"You know, now when I think about it..." Cheetah tossed him a smirk, leaning towards him. "You're purr-ety cute." And Chat Noir found his eyes widening to the size of dinner plates when she delivered a soft peck to his lips.
He stared at her, cheeks flushing red and jaw hanging slightly as she straightened up, looking over at Ladybug, the heroine slowly staggering to her feet as she rubbed her nose.
"Say hi to Lady from me," Cheetah said, throwing the bag over her shoulder.
She sent him a wink, "See you later, pretty kitty."
And with that, she was off, disappearing into the streets of Paris with inhuman speed. Wincing on feeling a sting of pain, Ladybug stalked over to Chat Noir. "She was not an akuma," She deducted, pink lips pressed into a straight line as she helped the feline to his feet.
Her eyebrows knitting together, Ladybug looked over at Chat Noir."I... I think she posseses a miraculous like us. I mean, she wasn't hurting anybody. She was just stealing." Ladybug pondered, "But if she was like us then why would she use her powers in stealing? Miraculous powers are given to people to do good. This doesn't make any sens— Chat Noir, are you even listening to me?!"
Ladybug quirked an eyebrow as Chat Noir gave her a sheepish smile, "Of course, I'm listening to you!"
Parting to her lips to state that he wasn't paying attention, something caught the young heroine's eye. "Chat Noir... Are you blushing?"
Said boy's eyes widened, cheeks flushing red even more. "What?! No! What makes you say that?!"
"Uh... 'cause your face looks like a tomato." Ladybug said flatly, crossing her arms over her chest as she waited for him to give an explanation.
"I have a fever." He made an excuse, smiling weakly.
A silent sigh of relief left his lips when she rolled her eyes, then began scolding him about how he should take care of himself.

Plopping down on her bed, Cheetah blew a puff of air from her mouth. "Time to de-transform." She said loudly, her costume instantly dissolving into a glitter that started from her feet and ended up to her head.
A small cheetah like looking cub flew out from the stone of her bracelet.
Shaking her head, Vite scowled. "If you're grandmother was here, she would've been so disappointed in you. You should be ashamed." The kwami scolded.
Ellie ignored her scolds, fishing through the bag. "You worry too much, Vite." She rolled her gray orbs, pulling out an antique vase.
She ran her fingers over its complex design, Vite flying over to her shoulder. "And what was that you did with that cat boy?" The kwami questioned, Ellie bouncing her shoulders nonchalantly.
"I was just having a little fun." She responded, fully interested in the masterpiece in her hands.
Vite shook her furry head, "You shouldn't play with people's feelings like that. The miraculous was given to you for great deeds and helping people. You shouldn't—"
"I shouldn't use it for my own interests," Ellie completed, busy in inspecting the antiques. "Yeah, yeah. I heard you." Her hand felt something and her eyes sparkled as she pulled it out of the bag.
It was a black cat's statue.
