This is a one shot I came up with on the spot so sorry if it's not that good.
I don't own the song or Miraculous Ladybug.
Enjoy!
Tikki sat on the window sill of her current chosen's room, knowing she should've felt triumphant, but felt only sorrow.
They had finally done it. They had saved Egypt from destruction at the hand of Black Cat. He had terrorized Egypt for seven years, but she and her chosen Ladybug had finally destroyed him.
Tikki only wished, as she stared at the silver ring sitting next to her, that it hadn't cost such a high price.
Tikki sighed as she touched the ring, and began to sing softly.
Fate has been cruel and order unkind
Even as a creature of chaos, Plagg still obeyed the laws of nature.
How can I have sent you away?
The blame was my own; the punishment, yours
As much as she hated to admit it, it was true. Eight years ago Black Cat and Ladybug had been partners, and friends. But neither kwami had warned their chosens of how people would receive each of them.
The harmony's silent today
Tikki choked on that last line. Harmony wouldn't ring for her for a very long time.
But into the stillness I'll bring you a song
The stillness that hold every kwami when they're not active, Tikki knew that Plagg was there.
And I will your company keep
Till your tired eyes and my lullabies
Have carried you softly to sleep
She could only hope that Plagg could hear her. And one day forgive her.
Once did a kwami who shone like the sun
Look out at her chosen and sigh
She smiled and said, "Surely, there is no kwami
So lucky and so well beloved as I"
Her chosens had always treated her well and she loved them for that.
So great was her luck and so brilliant her glory
That long was the shadow she cast
Tikki and Plagg always warned their chosens that Ladybug would always be more loved that Black Cat. They had always seemed to understand that, and Ladybug was always quick to comfort her partner.
But this one had hardly seemed to notice. Not because she was cruel, but because the citizens had loved him too, at least in front of her chosen.
Which fell dark upon the young partner she loved
And grew only darker as days and nights passed
With this treatment, it was only a matter of time before Black Cat snapped.
Plagg my dear kwami, goodnight heart of mine
And rest now in moonlight's embrace
The moonlight was always one of Plagg's favorite things on Earth. Tikki hoped that as he slept and dreamed, he dreamed of moonlight.
Bear up my lullaby, winds of the earth
Through cloud, and through sky, and through space
Even though he was technically right next to her, Tikki knew he was farther than the moon.
Carry the peace and the coolness of night
And carry my sorrow in kind
Kwami were always connected, except when the other half of the bond was sealed. Tikki hoped that even though they couldn't sense each other, he would still feel her sorrow over doing this to him.
Plagg, you're loved so much more than you know
Forgive me for being so blind
Kwami are influenced by the emotions of their chosens, just as their chosens are them. So until she had to fight against him, Tikki felt the same way as her chosen.
Soon did that kwami take notice that others
Did not give her partner his due
By the time that Tikki and her chosen noticed something was wrong, it was too late. Plagg and his chosen had decided to destroy Egypt.
And neither had she loved him as he deserved
Just before Black Cat had turned to the dark, Plagg and Tikki had spoken. She said hurtful things, and so did he. Tikki wished so badly now that she could take them all back.
But she hadn't.
Since neither she nor her chosen felt the need to comfort Plagg or his chosen-
She watched as her partner's unhappiness grew
She had a front row view, of Black Cat and Plagg slowly destroying themselves, and everything around them.
But such is the way of the limelight, it sweetly
Takes hold of the mind of its host
It hadn't started that way, Tikki mused.
There was a time when Ladybug would've attacked anyone who spoke down on her cat. And the citizens knew it as well. So the awful things were said when only he was around. He never spoke of it, and Ladybug never knew until it was too late.
And that foolish kwami did nothing to stop
The destruction of one who had needed her most
Plagg my dear kwami, goodnight heart of mine
And rest now in moonlight's embrace
Bear up my lullaby, winds of the earth
Through cloud, and through sky, and through space
Carry the peace and the coolness of night
And carry my sorrow in kind
Eventually it had happened that Ladybug would fight Black Cat. Neither chosen or kwami was looking forward to it. But they both knew Black Cat had to be stopped.
So the day came, ironically enough on a total solar eclipse.
Plagg, you're loved so much more than you know
May troubles be far from your mind
And forgive me for being so blind
The fight felt like it lasted for days, but had really lasted for only a few hours. Tikki cried inside her miraculous for every second of it.
But eventually it was done. Black Cat was defeated and Plagg was sealed.
The years now before us
Fearful and unknown
I never imagined
I'd face them on my own
Tikki looked out to the moonless sky, and wondered what would happen now. Plagg was sealed away from her for a thousand years.
Years she wished she could use to make it up to him, apologize over and over hoping that one day he would believe her.
May these thousand winters
Swiftly pass, I pray
I love you; I miss you
All these miles away
Tikki prayed to the moon, for sometime ago it had become her symbol of Plagg even when they were unable to be together.
May all your dreams be sweet tonight
Safe upon your bed of moonlight
She was more than sure that in his dreams, Plagg's bed was not an empty blackness, nor a bed of cheese, but of the softest moonlight.
And know not of sadness, pain, or care
And when I dream, I'll fly away and meet you there
Tikki knew for the next thousand years she would only dream of one person.
Sleep...
Tikki let the final word drop into the night sky. Finally letting her tears flow, Tikki cried softly for her other half.
Drifting off to sleep, Tikki didn't see or sense the ring she was curled around begin to glow.
