"Alright class." The teacher said. "For the next week you will all be working on a book report. Now I will assign you partners and a book."

"Oh boy." Alya said to Marinette. "Let's hope you and I get paired."

"Don't worry, if not then I'm sure will get paired with someone good." Marinette said.

"Mylene with Ivan, Max with Kim, Alix with Juleka, Nino with..."

"Please not with Chloe." He begged. "Please not with Chloe."

"Alya."

"Yes!" Alya blushed, Nino was embarrassed. "Heh...Heh."

"And Adrien with Marinette."

Marinette eeked with joy then blushed when everyone stared at her. The teacher handed out slips of paper to each of the students.

"Now as you know the library is closed for renovations so you'll have to get your books from the book shop." She said. "These sheets of paper have your books written on it and what isle they're on."

The bell rung and the students left class to go to the book store.

"Good going girl." Alya said.

"Alya...what do I do? What do I say? What if I say something embarrassing?"

"Just be yourself."

"Hey Alya!" Nino called. "We got Moby Dick."

"Cool, let's get going."

The two left together hand in hand.

"Alya wait!"

"Don't worry Marinette." Tikki called from her bag. "You'll be fine."

"Marinette?" She turned around to see Adrien behind her. "We'll be reading Of Mice and Men."

"Oh! I love that book."

"You've read it?"

"Yes. It's wonderful."

Together they went to the book store, one of the employees was a guy named Terrance. He loved fantasy novels especially ones about wizards and magic. But his employer Mr. Carleton wasn't very nice to him.

"Terrance!" He shouted.

"Yes sir?"

"Get the door!"

"Yes Mr. Carleton!" He opened the door for Adrien and Marinette. "Can I help you two?"

"Yes, we're looking for Of Mice and Men." Marinette said.

"Right down the second isle." Terrance said.

"Thank you." Adrien said.

They pulled out the book and began reading. The two them sat close together as they read unaware of how close they were.

"Wow." Adrien said. "So far this is a great book."

"I told you. I love reading, I remember when my parents would read me stories before bed."

"What kind of stories?"

"You know the ones Cinderella, Snow White, Sleeping Beauty."

"The ones that end in a kiss."

"Why not? True Love's Kiss is the most powerful thing in the world or at least that's what I always thought."

That made her think of the time she kissed Chat Noir to break Dark Cupid's spell. She never thought her kiss would be that strong enough.

"Maybe it is. Let's finish the book."

"Hey, Alya is having a reading group somewhere, wanna go?"

"Sure."

They bought the book and left. Ivan and Mylene arrived later.

"Excuse me, where are the Harry Potter books?" Ivan asked.

"On the tenth isle, follow me." Terrance said. "I just love books like that. Sometimes I wish I could be a wizard and cast spells."

"Really?" Ivan said.

"Yeah sometimes I use a fake wand like this." He pulled a sliver fake wand out of his pocket.

"Terrance!" Mr. Carleton shouted. "Stop talking and get back to work!"

"Sorry sir."

He pulled out a book and gave it to them but he accidentally knocked over a shelf. All the books fell on the floor.

"Terrance! You idoit! Look what you've done!"

"I'm sorry sir."

"That's it! You're fired."

"But..but I love this job. Please sir."

"Get out! Get out! Get out!"

Terrance left and sat on a bench somewhere.

"Stupid Mr. Carleton! I wish I was wizard then I would use my magic to teach him a lesson." He grumbled.

In the shadows Hawkmoth had heard him and was ready to take another victim.

"Angry at your boss? Well wizard I'll give you the magic to get revenge and in exchange you can get something for me."

The akuma flew on to his wand and was transformed into a grayskinned man dressed in a green cloak with dark circles around the eyes. The Wizard smiled wickedly as he raised his wand up.
