A story in which an akuma has the power to bring people's nightmares to life, everyone would be surprised of what Chat Noir's worst fear is... That is if they could see it.

Ladybug had found out that the akuma had the ability to bend people's thoughts and replace what people's brains were actually seeing, to seeing their worst nightmare. Adrien new he had a lot of fears but he wasn't completely sure what his worst fear was. It could easily one fear or the other. The only thing he was sure of that akuma battle was that when ladybug was a bout get shot with the akuma's beam, he had to make sure she didn't get hit, he jumped infront of her and got hit with the beam.

Adrien was in the middle of the school with all of his friends, some laughing, some grimacing, Nino was in the front laughing in his face.

"I thought you were good enough to be my friend Adrien!" Nino stated, "Bit now that I've thought about it the more I realize: you're not good enough for me Adrien! You are are worthless peice of crap!" Nino walked away laughing. Next up was Alya.

"Adrien." Alya started off calmly, "You don't deserve anyone's praise! You don't deserve the love of who ever you're trying to win the affection of!" Alya started to get more aggressive with each syllable. Next was Marinette.

"A-Adrien," Marinette started, "you are JUST like Chloe! Y-you a-are a he-eartless monster! A-a stupid no-gooder!" Marinette still was stuttering even when she was mad. To Adrien's, and everyone else's surprise, ladybug was next.

"You are worthless Chat Noir." Ladybug said while doing air quotes over Chat Noir.

"L-ladybug." Adrien gasped out with new found tears rolling down his face to join the previous ones.

"Yeah, that's right, it's me." Ladybug stated, "I would fight better without you! You are a hindrance! Just stop fighting with me! Your just another burden to deal with, like the other citizens near the battle! Except you're just there and I have to make sure you don't get hurt!" Ladybug shouted the last words. Adrien twisted his head to the side to avoid Ladybug's glare.

"If that's what you want, Ladybug. I'll stop being your partner if you feel like I'm just a hindrance." Adrien managed to choke out above the wall the ocean of tears had built between his vocal cords and lips.

"Yeah that's right! I'd rather not have a partner than to have you as one!" Ladybug yelled.

"O-ok."

~ladybug's Pov~

"L-ladybug." Ladybug heard her partner choke out, she thought he woke up from his trance. She and the akuma both turned in Chat's direction. But Chat was still slumped up against the wall, but this time with oceans of tears running down his face.

"If that's what you want, Ladybug. I'll stop being your partner if you feel like I'm just a hindrance." Her partner murmured with more tears running down his cheeks. She took her opponent's distraction to wrap her lucky charm, a dish rag, around her opponent's wrists and broke the necklace around her neck and purified the tainted butterfly and melt by her partner's side and stroked his soft hair. This elected a smile on his lips and a soft purr from the back of his throat.

"Wow." She rubbed the velvet inside of Chat Noir's cat ears, and the rumbling grew louder. "So cute." She cooed.
