A/N: Hello Miraculous Fans! I'm also a Miraculous Ladybug fan, I just been reading fanfics and haven't written any in this fandom… So, I'm going to give this my own spin! So, yea, I.O.N means I own nothing… Also I cannot spell for the life of me…
Welcome To the Future!
Adrien's/Chat Noir's p.o.v
I don't want to be here. This photo shoot is even more boring than the others, and that's saying something! Alya and Marinette haven't miraculously appear out of nowhere like they usually do. Whenever they appear, I will wave at them then watch as Marinette doesn't stop waving then Alya tackles her to get her hand down.
"That's it! That's the smile we need!" and I'm drawn back to the present. Gah! I really don't like photo shoots. When I graduate from school, I'm getting a different job. Losing my smile, I quietly wish Hawkmoth will send out an akuma so I can escape this torture.
Almost as if he heard my thoughts, a police officer came running up to us.
"There is an akuma heading this! Everyone get to cover now!" the officer yelled as he herded everyone to safety. Quickly, I slip behind a bush, where my kwami Plagg is hiding.
"Here I was thinking that an akuma attack would be better than Father's photo shoot!" I exclaimed excited for the chance to save all of Paris.
Plagg rolled his eyes, "Yea yea, just say the magic words already, your lady is waiting."
I grinned, "Plagg, Claws Out!"
Transforming into my alter ego, Chat Noir, I jumped onto a nearby roof. My cat like ears picked up the sound of people screaming of fear. I quickly made my way over to where they were coming from. It wasn't long until I found the akuma.
I couldn't tell the gender, it looked like a black blob with a single red circle in the center for an eye. I raised my eyebrow at it.
"Hawkmoth got to be joking, right? What can it do any way, other than smother us to death?" I asked the masked angel that just arrived behind me.
"Not gonna ask how you knew I was behind you, oh and the akuma is called Gourou du temps." Ladybug spoke as she slipped into the spot next to me.
"So, Blob does what? Smother time? Slow down time?" I asked with a raised eyebrow.
Ladybug laughed, "I wish! He shoots red beams out of his eyes that if they hit you, you freeze up and don't notice what is happening around you!"
I smirked, "So, blobby is freezey instead? What's the plan bugaboo?"
Half an Hour later…
Milady's plan would have worked if Gourou du temps didn't throw Ladybug into a gutter. Her foot got stuck.
"Chat Noir, Use your cataclysm on the gutter!" Ladybug requested.
"Cata…" I never finished when a red beam struck both of us. I immediately blacked out, knowing the same is happening to Ladybug…
"Chaton!" I woke up to Ladybug shaking me awake while shouting my name.
"Uh? Where are we?" I asked as I pushed myself up. Looking around, I didn't recognize any buildings.
"Still Paris. I can see the Eiffel Tower." Ladybug pointed out the landmark.
As quickly as we can, we made our way to the famous tower. Arriving, I noticed something was wrong. All the tourists and Parisians were calm and not panicking over the arrival of an akuma.
"Milady, I think something is wrong. There is no akuma." I pointed out worriedly.
Ladybug started to look around when a hand grabbed both of us from behind. Jumping, we turned around to see a man with messy blonde hair and sparkling green eyes. He was wearing a shirt that read Surviving This Cat-cathify, blow out jeans, sneakers held together by duct tape, and a dark blue denim jacket with a large green paw print on the back.
"Follow me please." He spoke with a confidence that someone that poorly dress shouldn't have.
I glanced at Ladybug for directions, "He might take us to the akuma. That and I don't know what to do sense that store wasn't there this morning."
Realizing she was telling the truth, I followed the man. Straight into an alleyway. I nervously glanced at Ladybug, who was behind me, when it occurred to me that this could be the akuma in disguise!
"Adrien, Marinette, you can detransform now." The man spoke suddenly.
Startled, I said "Claws in" the same time I heard Ladybug say "Spots off". I glanced at where Ladybug was standing, and there was indeed my shy classmate Marinette.
Marinette bravely took a step forward, "Who are you and how did you know our secret identities?"
The man sighed, "Not here. It's too dangerous. Before we get going, Marinette is Molly and Adrien is Matt. Got it?"
Stunned, we nodded our heads. Were our lives in danger?
"Almost forgot. Nothing wrong with the Agreste brand but if anyone seed you wearing those and they not look like they came from a thrift store, people will ask questions." The man hastily added. Insulted, I was about to ask what he was talking about when, "Plagg, can you work your magic?"
Sure enough, Plagg flew out of the man's jacket like it was no big deal. The kwami quickly touched my clothes causing them to became stained and ripped. He then flew back into the jacket. My Plagg flew out of my shirt pocket, "Wait, that's me! What's going on here!?"
The man (me?) sighed, "Plagg, I just said it's not save here. Follow me, quickly now."
He then burst into a fast walk. Startled, Marinette and I hurried to try to keep up. We passed many businesses. Some we recognized, others we didn't. It wasn't long till we arrived at a street crossing. While we wait for the light change, an older version of Chloe walked up to us.
The man flashed her a kind smile, "Good evening Cl- Miss Bourgeois."
Chloe huffed as she stuck her nose in the air, "What are you doing here!? Honestly it is days like this that a pity your wife. She deserves better than you. It's a miracle she hasn't left you yet!"
At that she kicked dirty sewer water unto my possible future self, and spat on my shoes. Luckily, the light changed right then and the man dragged us across the street. Jogging to keep up, we then followed him into the poor section of the city. Where all the buildings are rundown and the walls so thin, you can hear everything that is going on.
The man lead us up to the second floor of one of the apartment buildings. An elderly lady with hazel eyes smiled when she spotted us, "Good evening Adrien! Why, hello Molly, hello Matt. I thought I saw you go inside your apartment all ready? Gah! I'm so old me brain's playing tricks on me."
Defitenee future me returned the smile, "Good evening Ms. Cordonnier. The twins did came home after school, but Mari sent them to fetch me. Bless her heart, she just doesn't want me to get hurt on the way home."
Ms. Cordonnier smiled even bigger, "She's not the only one! Did ya hear about the latest akuma? Gave me the willies, that one did! Good thing the Sauveteurs was on the scene! Well, Ladybug and Rena Rouge was. Carapace did showed up half way through the battle, but Chat Noir only showed up in time for the team fist bump. I hope he isn't having trouble in his civilian life. That would be dreadful!"
Future Adrien laughed weakly, "I'm sure everything's fine. He probably wasn't in a place he could easily transform. Well, I need to get to my apartment. See you tomorrow Ms. Cordonnier!"
At the last part, he sounded less nervous and more upbeat. He then, stepped up to the door next to Ms. Cordonnier's apartment. He then searched his pockets for the room key only to get a really panicked look on his face. Ms. Cordonnier raised an eyebrow has he turned to us, "I think I dropped the key somewhere. Matt stay here, Molly come with me."
"No need for that Chaton, you left your key on the table again." A bright voice spoke from the doorway of my future apartment. Turning our attention there, Marinette and I noticed what had to be future Marinette. She had her long black her down and pulled back by a red bandana, and deep blue eyes still filled with innocent mystery and fiery determination. She was wearing a large t shirt with another cat pun on it, and sweatpants that had a rip on the knee. She was barefooted.
"Hey Ms. Cordonnier! Today was truly beautiful, wasn't it?" FMarinette happily started a conversation with their neighbor.
Ms. Cordonnier smiled even bigger. Okay I think she is always smiling, and how is it possible to smile that big! "Oh, yes! I was telling Adrien all about the akuma attack."
FMarinette beamed, "Well, Adrien all ready knows about today's battle, Dad told him. Well, good night! Matt and Molly have a big test in history tomorrow."
Ms. Cordonnier's smile went back to being slightly smaller, "Oh well. Don't want to keep ya'll awake all night. Come give your Auntie Coccinelle a big hug good night."
I really wish our future counterparts didn't give us the okay. We quickly hugged Ms. Cordonnier (Auntie Coccinelle?) good night and rushed into our future apartment, that we share.
FAdrien closed the door fighting laughter while FMarinette headed into the kitchen, "Alya brought us some groceries and Mom sent us some leftovers from the café. She also wants to know if we are planning on getting your cut checked from the battle with Coutelier. All the kids are either in their rooms doing homework or sleeping. Here's dinner."
She handed each of us plates filled with green beans, a slice of roast, and rice cooked in a cream sauce. It was then that I realized how hungry I was and quickly wolfed the food down. Mine and Marinette's kwamis flew out of hiding and joined their future counterparts in eating scrapings from various dirty plants.
"Thanks Marinette. This tastes great! Okay little us, you have all night to think of new names to use while you are here. Don't worry about a last name, you can use Agreste since you'll be staying with us." FAdrien informed us as he started the dishes.
I spoke up, "Why don't we use our middle names? Mine's Felix." I turned to face Marinette who blushed.
"Umm, you don't have a middle name, I do. Wait! I mean…"
FMarinette laughed at her past-self, "I don't have a middle name. Why don't my past self go by Bridgette? After all, we did found out that I'm a twin and that's my twin's name."
Marinette's, Bridgette's, eyes went round, "Wait, I'm a twin? What happened to her?"
Adrien answered, "According to Maman, she only lived for a week then died."
Marinette smiled, "Adrien calls my parents Maman and Papa now a days."
After we settled on who is who, our adult selfs headed into the master bedroom while Ma-Bridgette took the couch and I spread out on the floor. Suddenly Adrien stuck his head out of the door, "Where are my manners? Welcome to the future!"
With that he returned back to bed. I turned to face Ma-Bridgette, "How come I have a feeling we aren't going to like what the future holds for us?"
