Lila angrily walked home, fury seethed through her veins and her teeth were glitched.
"How was school?" Her mother asked.
"Horrible! Ladybug humiliated me right in front of a guy I like."
"Ladybug? Why would she do a thing like that?" Her mother asked.
"No! She was just jealous!"
"And why would she be jealous of you? She doesn't even know you."
"I don't know! She just is."
"Really? Would it have anything to do with you lying about being friends with her?"
"What? How did you know?"
"I found a video of you claiming you knew her now Lila you know that's not true, why would you lie?"
"I...don't know! But she embarrassed me!"
"And you probably deserved it! Lila you didn't really think you could lie about something like this and expect to get away with it did you?"
"No I just...I just wanted everyone to love me as much as they love her! She's definitely not as great as everyone says she is! They only reason why everyone likes her is because she has superpowers! I bet if I had superpowers everyone would love me too."
"Oh honey, I know your father and I divorcing and leaving Italy was a big step and you only want to make friends but do you want real friends who like you for who you are or fake ones who only like because of something that's not true? You don't need powers for someone to love you just give it time."
"I don't have time Mother! I want popularity! I want power! I want Adrien!"
"Adrien? Is that a boy you like?"
"Yes but he loves Ladybug. I wish I could be a superhero, one more powerful than Ladybug then he would love me."
"Darling that's not real love and I doubt you'll be a superhero because we don't have that in our family except..."
"Except what?"
"Well here, let me show you." She went in the other room and pulled out an old picture of a Russian woman who looked a little bit like Lila. "It was said on my side of the family that your great, great, great, great, great, grandmother lived in China for awhile and that she helped people. Some believed her to be some type of fox themed super hero but I think that's just an old Chinese myth."
Her mother laughed but Lila took a closer look at the picture. The woman was wearing the fox miraculous necklace.
"Mom, do we still have that necklace she's wearing?"
"Oh no I was told she gave that back to some man, what was he called? Master Fu I believe."
Lila remembered hearing about a healing man named Master Fu who lived somewhere in Paris. After months of doing research on her ancestor and talking to some people she got directions to where he lived.
"Hello?" She said.
"Hello young lady, how may I help you?" Master Fu asked. "Are you seeking relaxation?"
"No I'm actually here to ask a few questions."
"What about?"
"I have a relative who is long gone but I was told she gave a necklace to someone named Master Fu and I'm assuming you might be his great grandson or something?"
"Not exactly my dear, but this necklace you speak of what does it look like?"
Lila held up a picture of her grandmother. Fu immediately knew who the woman was and recognized the necklace she wore.
"Do you have it?"
"Um..well yes. But why do you want it?"
"Because it rightfully belongs to me."
"No it doesn't."
"Yes it does! It was my grandmother's."
"That doesn't mean you should have it. She gave it to me." Fu covered his mouth realizing his mistake too late.
"What? How is that possible? You would have to a million years old."
"Actually I'm one eighty-six."
"What the? How? You know! You know about the miraculouses don't you?"
"Very well out of respect for Natasha I won't lie to you, yes I do know about them."
"The fox miraculous belongs to me! Give it to me!"
"I'm very sorry but when your grandmother gave me that necklace I promised her I would only give it to someone worthy and you are unworthy."
"How am I unworthy?"
"Well for one thing you are not entitled to own a miraculous, it's something that chooses you. Another thing is you only want to use it for selfish reasons and I cannot allow that. Now would you like a cup of herbal tea? It does wonders for your stress."
"I deserve a miraculous!"
"You most certainly do not." He said. "Long ago I foolishly have a miraculous to someone who just like you used it for their own selfish desires and I do not intend to make that mistake twice. Now will you kindly leave? I have an appointment at four o'clock."
But Lila was determined to get what she wanted. When the old man's back was turned she pushed him down causing him to hit the shelf containing the secret box that held the miraculouses. The box opened and Lila quickly snatched the fox miraculous not noticing the other one.
Poor Fu was too weak and hurt to stop her, he could only watch as the girl walked away cackling.
"Master!" Wayzz gasped.
"Wayzz." Fu groaned. "Get help."
Lila smiled as she sat in her room fiddling with the necklace. "Now how does this thing work?"
On cue the necklace glowed and a tiny fox kwami appeared.
"Hello my name is Trixx and I- hey wait a minute you're not the one Fu chose me for."
"No! But I own you! And now you will serve me or I'll throw you into a fireplace. Understand?"
"You are a wicked girl and you're going to regret the decisions you make but unfortunately I'm your prisoner now so what do you want?"
"How do I activate my powers?"
...
Marinette was walking home from school when she heard a loud crash.
"What was that?" She thought. Wayzz had seen her coming and remembering her kind heart, he knew she'd gladly help him so he threw something hard to get her attention. She followed it into Fu's shop and found him the floor. "Oh my God! Are you alright sir?"
He didn't respond.
"Help!" She cried. "Help! Someone help!"
"Marinette?"
"Adrien?"
"What's wrong?"
"He's hurt."
"I'll call 911."
A medic brought the old man to the hospital while Marinette and Adrien walked there.
"I hope he's okay." Marinette sighed.
"I'm sure he's fine Marinette don't worry."
"Miss Dupain-Cheng." A nurse said. "The patient wants to see you, privately."
Marinette walked into his room.
"Are you okay?" She asked.
"You needn't worry about me, I maybe old but it's a lot more then a little push to take me out." He reassured. "But it seems I'll be here for awhile so I need to warn you now."
"About what?"
"Someone has stolen a miraculous."
"Hawkmoth?"
"No but someone you should fear just as much." He said. "A selfish and power hungry girl who will use the miraculous for dark intentions."
"Did you get a name?"
"I'm afraid not."
"Don't worry I'll find her and stop her."
"You can't do it alone. I plan to warn Cat Noir as well and send another miraculous holder to help you."
"Who?"
"I'm not sure yet and even if I was I can't tell you. Just be careful and don't be afraid to ask for help because you need to learn to trust others especially your friends and don't asume, always make sure you have your facts straight."
"I'll try."
"Good now send that nice young man in here I want to thank him for helping me."
Marinette did and headed home. Fu then revealed his knowledge of the miraculouses to him and gave him the same warning.
"Are you going to be okay?" He asked.
"Of course I'll be fine in a few days but be very careful about this girl whoever she is I know for a matter a fact she has terrible plans in store and I know she seeks to destroy you and Ladybug."
"Does Ladybug know?"
"Yes and she'll need as much help as she can get same to you. A word of advice things are not always as they appear, don't believe everything you see and hear because there are liars in this world. Trust your heart and not your eyes if you do you'll lose what you love most."
"Okay."
"Well you better go home. I need some rest and to take my medicine."
"Get better."
"I will."
Once he left, Wayzz flew out.
"Wayzz I need you to take my bracelet and find someone worthy of it."
"I'll try master."
