Marinette leaned back in her seat, it had been a long, tedious day of school, but it was finally over, and after school, she was hanging with Alya at Marinette's house.
Alya poked Marinette's arm from beside her, "Race you to your house!" she said, running out the door. Marinette rolled her eyes with a smile and got out of her seat, trudging out the door.
When she got out of the school building, she heard a shrill scream. She turned to see Alya outside the bakery with someone holding her wrist.
It was the infamous criminal, Chat Noir.
Marinette ran to Alya as fast as she could and did the first thing that came into her mind, she punched Chat Noir square in the face. In response, Chat Noir let go of her scared friend and the two girls raced into the bakery and ran up to Marinette's room.
As soon as they got there, Marinette gripped Alya's shoulders and said, "Are you okay?"
Alya nodded, "But what about you girl?" she asked, "You just punched Chat Noir in the face!"
"It was the only thing I could think of to get him away from you!" Marinette shot back
Alya groaned, "I don't see why this is a fight, but thank you."
Marinette smiled proudly, "You're welcome!"

The rest of the evening the girls enjoyed themselves by watching rom-coms, looking at Marinette's sketchbook, and just talking with one another. Until, finally, Alya had to head home.
"Do you have to leave?" Marinette asked when the time rolled around
"Girl, believe me, I don't want to leave." Alya pushed back and put her hand on her forehead and said dramatically, "But I'm afraid this is how it has to be!"
The two looked at each other for a second before bursting out into laughter.
Marinette composed herself "Okay, okay, see you at school on Monday?" she asked
Alya smiled, "You know I can't get out of school no matter what, so yes."
And with that, they bid each other goodbye, and Alya head home.
After Alya left Marinette plopped onto her bed and sighed. She was so tired, from the long boring day of school, to punching Chat Noir in the face, she considered today a successful day, and drifted off to sleep. Little did she know, she was being closely watched by two acid green eyes.

Marinette woke up bright light shining in her face, which was most unpleasant.
"Marinette!" called her mother from downstairs, "Get up, I need you to run to the store to buy sugar!"
Reluctantly, Marinette got out of bed, and got ready to leave.
She hobbled down the stairs and out to the bakery where her mother was helping a customer.
"Ah, Marinette!" she said, "Thank you so much for doing this, it's a big help."
"No problem Mom!" Marinette replied as she headed out the door.
Unlike earlier in the morning, when the sun conveniently showed itself to Marinette's eyes, it was hidden behind a mess of clouds. A light breeze washed itself through Marinette's pigtails as she walked, when suddenly, something grabbed her wrist and pulled her into the alleyway she was walking past.
A leather gloved hand covered her mouth so she couldn't scream and call for help. The other hand held her wrists together so she couldn't move. She struggled against is, but it was like trying to get out of handcuffs. She looked up to bright green eyes, staring into her blue ones. Her captor smirked, showing his pearly white teeth to her.
"Hello again, Princess." said Chat Noir in a mocking tone, "Remember me? 'Cause I certainly remember you."
Marinette's eyes widened, what on earth was happening?!
Chat Noir tilted his head to one side. "Now," he said, "I think we need to go somewhere a little more private, don't you?"
With that, he picked Marinette off the ground and jumped on top of the roof of the building they were next to, and put her down.
Marinette's breathing was heavy. "What do you want?" she asked
Chat's smile grew wider, "You know, I'm glad you asked Princess. You see, yesterday you humiliated me, and I think you should pay for that."
Marinette gave him a questioning look, "How so?"
He leaned right up close to Marinette's face, "You see Princess, we're going to play a little game of Cat and Mouse. If I win, you're mine. You have to do whatever I say when I say it."
Marinette took a deep breath, "What do I get if I win?"
Chat Noir laughed, "I don't think you'll win, but if you do, I'll leave you alone."
"What are the rules?"
Chat tsked, "So many questions, but I suppose you do need to know. If I catch you three times within the next week, I win. If I don't, and you manage not to get caught, you win. That seems simple enough, doesn't it?"
Marinette nodded.
"Now, I won't count this one, because the game wasn't started yet."
Marinette took a shaky breath, "Alright, can you get me down now?"
"I guess, but first I need to know your name."
"It's Marinette."
Chat smiled, "Ah, a fitting name for a little mouse. Now, if memory serves, you wanted to get down, and only I can help you with that."
Marinette took a few small steps forward, and Chat Noir picked her up again and jumped back down into the alley.
Just as Marinette was about to get out of there and run as far away as possible, Chat grabbed her wrist and pulled her close to him.
"Oh, and, Marinette?" he asked, feeling her shudder as he purred out her name, "If you tell anyone about this, you're disqualified, and I automatically win."
Marinette's eyes widened and she took a sharp breath.
"Understood?" he asked
"Y-yes." she replied
"Good." he said, let go of her, and disappeared into the darkness.
Marinette fell to her knees.
She was on her own.
