AN And so I begin the story of my Next gen children! Woo!
Chapter 1
A quick shadow darts over the rooftops of Paris. Down on the streets, an armored car is speeding down the road with police cars chasing after it. The car swerves to miss a civilian before smashing through a small parked car. Debris flies everywhere and nearly hits the many civilians who are on the sidewalks, but the shadow quickly moves down and blocks the bits of the car before shooting back up to the rooftops. All the civilians just blink in confusion before cheering happily.
The armored car continues down the road increasing in speed as it passes the Eiffel Tower especially when one of the passengers spots the shadow following them.
"It's him! Hurry up!" the man yelled to the driver who slammed his foot down on the gas pedal. The shadow moves quicker to keep up with the car, but it does notice that the car is beginning to widen the distance. It jumps on the Eiffel Towel and propels itself forward at a high speed.
The people in the car smirk as they don't see the shadow anymore. "Ha! Please! These other criminals are giving Paris's so-called 'Superhero' too much credit!" the driver exclaimed while laughing. The other men in the car began to laugh as well until something hard slammed into the side of the car causing it to shake hard.
The driver gasped in shock and unconsciously slammed his foot on the brake. All the men in the car lurched forward at the sudden stop. The men in the back of the car groaned as they sat up and rubbed their necks in pain.
"What the hell! You almost gave us whiplash! What is wrong with you?!" one of them screamed as they glared angrily at the driver who was too occupied staring at the window in shock. The men diverted their attention up and gasped as they saw the shadow now revealed thanks to the street lights.
The figure was a fairly short boy who seemed to be in his teen years. He stood at around 5'1-5'2. He had short red hair with a few bangs coming down to shadow his forehead. He has a black mask covering his eyes and a gray face guard covering the sides of his face and chin. He has pale white skin that seemed to gleam in the light. He was wearing a purple suit that resembled a tuxedo with a large gray brooch on the front that resembled a butterfly. He was wearing black gloves and light purple boots. The two things that drew the most attention to the figure was the large light purple butterfly wings on his back and the burning glare coming from his hazel eyes.
The men felt a shiver go down their spines before freaking out. The passenger pulled out a gun and was about to shoot it before the boy phased his hand through the windshield and snatched the gun out of the man's hand. The other men gasped and went for their guns only to freak out as the figure pointed the gun at them.
The driver on the otherhand, began to calm down at this and smirked, "Please Hawkmoth wouldn't shoot us even if we are criminals. He's the superhero, remember?" The others began to calm down when he mentioned this. The now named Hawkmoth noticed this and sighed before bringing his finger down on the trigger shooting around the many criminals, causing them to drop their weapons. Hawkmoth smirked before bringing his free hand through the windshield, smashing it to pieces, and nabbed the driver.
"You're right. I will not shoot criminals, but I will shoot around them," Hawkmoth told him with a smirk before tossing him out of the car. Following that, he formed a fist around the gun, bending it inwards, effectively breaking it. The rest of the men quickly began to hop out of the car to try and get away only to stop at the sight of the various police officers who were standing there with large smirks on their faces.
"Going somewhere?" one of the police officers asked making the criminals pause and then collapse to the ground.
Hawkmoth tossed the gun to the side and walked over to the leader (Driver). "So usually I would say something to the lead criminal about them learning their lesson...but...it's like midnight, and I'm tired so good night!" Hawkmoth said with a large smirk as he punched the man in the face as lightly as he could, knocking him out. He then carried the man over to the officers, handed him over, and gave them a two finger salute before jumping back to the rooftops.
"Go Hawkmoth!" the officers and civilians yelled happily as he left their sight.
The hero groaned as he heard a beeping sound coming from his large brooch on his chest. He looked down and saw one of the wing shaped edges off it turn black. "I need to get home before Maman sees that I'm missing," he muttered under his breath as he finally jumped into the air and felt his wings begin to flap as they glowed brighter. He heard another beep as another edge turned black. He soared through the air as fast as he could thanks to his wings until he saw a nice looking house come into view.
He smiled as he saw the open window and with a quick look around, he soared into the room and let the transformation fall. As soon as the light that covered his body vanished, he was left in his purple pajamas with a small brooch. A small flying figure appeared and groaned, "Ginoooo...I'm huuuunnngrrryyy."
Gino chuckled as he reached into a drawer and pulled out a small pastry. He tossed it to the small creature who quickly swallowed it down. "Ahhh, it's not the best thing I've ever eaten, but it's still great. I love your pastries," the creature smiled as it flew over to Gino and nuzzled against his cheek causing him to chuckle. He looked around and saw that his room was untouched causing him to sigh in relief.
"Good, Emma didn't sneak in to bother my things like usual," Gino whispered as the small creature flew over to his desk and sat down on it. It looked over and saw a small picture of a a blond and black haired girl.
"Hey when did you put a picture of Felice up, Gino?" it asked causing Gino to freeze and quickly turn around to snatch the picture and shove it into the drawer. He sighed in relief before hearing laughter coming from behind him.
"Be quiet Nooroo, it's late, lets just get to sleep before Maman or Mamma come in here to see what is causing so much noise. I am not in the mood to see Maman's footie pajamas. I swear, for a great fashion designer, that has to be the worse thing she owns. Besides, she's an adult why does she even own them. At least Mamma has normal pajamas," Gino mutters as the image of his Maman in her footie pajamas comes to his mind causing him to groan in annoyance before sitting down on his bed.
Nooroo flew over to one of Gino's cabinets and flew through the top drawer to its bed. Gino smiled before laying down on the bed and sighing as he relaxed on his bed. He stared at the ceiling as the events played over in his mind before he closed his eyes and turned over to go to sleep.
In the room next to his, a teenage girl quietly squealed as she watched the footage of her favorite hero stop another crime. She looked over at her Hawkmoth t-shirt. It was purple with the design of his mask on the front and small, light purple wings coming out of the back. She ran over to it and hugged it tightly to her chest.
"Oh my gosh! Hawkmoth is so amazing! The way he fights, the way he moves, the way he helps people! I wish I were a hero like he was! Then I could help people like him!" the girl's eyes widened and even seemed to sparkle at the idea of her fighting crime.
"Emma please go to bed! You have school tomorrow!" she heard come from down the hall. Emma quickly yelled back, "Sorry Maman!"
The Next Morning
Gino yawned as he left his bedroom and headed towards the bathroom. He began rubbing his back to soothe the feint pain from slamming into the armored car the previous night. He was stopped; however, as a door shot open and nailed him in the face causing him to groan. The door closed, and he heard footsteps run down the hallway.
"Sorry Gino!" he heard Emma yell causing him to groan as he realized she was going to be in the bathroom for awhile.
"Yeah whatever Emma, just don't take an hour like you usually do! I want to get to school on time! Acel and Felice are meeting us there!" Gino yelled back as he made a sudden left to head downstairs to get some breakfast.
As he got to the bottom of the steps, he felt something shift under him followed by him falling forward and on his face. "Owww..." Gino groaned as he raised his head up and rubbed his face in pain. He pushed himself up and continued his way to the kitchen only to collide with someone and fall back to the ground, "Oh come on!" Gino yelled in slight annoyance as he looked up and saw a dark skinned woman wearing her hair in a bun while two strands of hair framed her face. She was wearing white sweatpants and an orange shirt.
"Sorry tesoro, you okay?" the woman asked him while leaning down to help him back up. He sighed before nodding his head.
"Yeah Mamma, I'm fine. I just need to watch where I'm going. I've run into far too much things today," Gino told his mother who just chuckled before patting his head and heading into the living room. He patted the dust off his pajamas and continued into the kitchen where he saw his other mom, his maman, sitting at the table eating cereal. She already had her short black hair nicely brushed and was wearing a suit.
"Hi Maman, you have a meeting today?" Gino asked her as he grabbed a bowl and sat down next to her to grab the box of cereal.
"Oh hey honey, yeah I have another dumb meeting today. Why didn't Adrien tell me his father had so many of these? I wish I could just stay home with you all and design clothes instead of sitting through stupid meetings about if I should let so and so store sell my clothes or if I should design a certain piece of clothing. Ugh!" she slammed her face down on the table causing it to shake and Gino's eyes to roll as he began to eat his cereal, use to his maman's over dramatic antics.
His maman, Marinette, is the top fashion designer in Paris and is what the press like to call 'The Next Gabriel Agreste,' something his Uncle Adrien likes to poke fun at. His Mamma, Lila, is a best-selling author. Her best-selling book is based on the adventures his two mothers, uncles, and aunts went on when they were Miraculous wielders or helped the wielders out. He knows this thanks to Nooroo informing him of his maman being Ladybug when she was his age and his Mamma constantly helping her keep her secret along with other things.
He hasn't told his family that he is Hawkmoth thanks to being concerned at how his mothers will react thanks to their archenemy being Hawkmoth when they started out as heroes as well as his sister's obsession with becoming a hero. Plus, his mothers haven't told them about that part of their past yet so he decides he'll hold off on his reveal as well.
Gino sighed as he began to pat his maman's back causing her to hum in approval. He sighed as he continued to eat his cereal while comforting his maman. After a couple more minutes, he finished eating and was heading back up to the bathroom so he could hurry and take a shower, but...
"Emma get out of the bathroom! School begins soon!" Gino yelled angrily. He heard water stop running plus a lot of crashing sounds before the door opened and a blur moved pass him which he guessed was his sister.
He looked in the bathroom and sighed as he saw his sister's clothes scattered all over the floor. She was such a slob when it came to cleaning up her clothes. He picked up her pajamas and...unmentionables...and quickly took a shower. As soon as he finished, he toweled off and changed into his clothes for the day (he always made sure to leave a pair hidden in the bathroom should Emma take too long like today) before running back to his bedroom.
Gino walked over to the drawer and smiled at the sleeping Nooroo. He headed over to his bed and grabbed his bag, filled with his school books, and gently placed Nooroo into a pocket away from the books so he could catch up on his sleep. There has been a recent crime spree, and while Nooroo hasn't said anything, Gino knew he was tired. Gino smiled as he grabbed his miraculous and pinned it onto his blue shirt before heading downstairs.
"Took you long enough Gino!" Emma yelled at him with a smile on her face. Gino just walked up to her and looked up into her face with an annoyed expression. Emma chuckled before grabbing his hand and pulled him out the door with both yelling good-bye to their parents. The two rushed down the streets while greeting a few people as they ran by.
As they passed by Tom & Sabine Boulangerie Patisserie, they saw a large, older man sweeping the leaves off the front sidewalk. Their smiles brightened as they rushed forward and hugged him tightly, surprising the man before he began laughing as he hugged them back. "Bon-papa!" the two teens shouted as they tightened their hug.
"Aw, there's my little grandkids! I was wondering where you two were at. Usually, you two pass by before now," Tom said as he ruffled their hair.
"Emma hogged the bathroom like usual so we didn't get to leave until just now," Gino explained causing Emma to stick her tongue out at him making their grandpa laugh.
"Well, it's getting pretty late, I'll tell your bonne-maman that you two said hi. Get going to school before you two are late like your maman always was," Tom happily told them as he patted their heads and waved good-bye while they ran towards school.
The two siblings continued on their way running as fast as possible only to stop as he heard an explosion nearby followed by a swooshing sound heading in their direction. His eyes widened before tackling Emma to the ground as a large chunk of a building came flying by.
The two looked up at it before glancing back and seeing a group of men with what looked to be explosives standing on a far off rooftop. "Where's Hawkmoth! He caused some of our men to be sent to jail last night! We're going to avenge them today!" one of the men yelled. Gino mentally groaned before pulling Emma up.
"Come on Emma lets go before those idiots cause another explosion," Gino told his sister and began shoving her so she wouldn't stand around and wait for Hawkmoth to appear. Emma began whining and struggling so she could sit back and see if she could see Hawkmoth coming only for Gino to grab her shoulders and push her to school.
Gino smirked as he saw his friends before saying, "Oh no I must have dropped my phone back there. Mamma will kill me if I don't get it. Emma go and stay with Acel and Felice. I'll be back in a few." Before waiting for her response, Gino turned and ran off causing her to pout as small tears formed in her eyes.
"Lucky..." Emma whined as she turned around and headed over to their friends.
"Hey girl! Where's Gino?" a dark skinned boy asked her. He has short brown hair with orange highlights at the front. He is wearing a pair of glasses with a small beauty mark on his chin. He took the earbuds out of his ears and put them back in his pocket while smoother out his specially designed shirt.
"Yeah where's Gino?" a tall girl with blond and black hair asked. She has blond hair with one side brushed over and covering one half of her face with the other side having three small, black bangs. She had fair skin like her father. She had on a pink shirt with a black cat on the front, a plus sign on one sleeve, and a minus sign on the other. She was wearing suspenders and had special Agreste shoes on.
"He dropped his phone so he ran back to get it. *Sigh* He gets to be near the action. If he doesn't get a picture of Hawkmoth for me, so help him..." Emma began before looking over at her friends, "Anyway, Acel, Felice, lets head in. We can listen to some of your music before class Acel."
The trio smiled as they turned and headed on into class to get ready for the day while above them, Hawkmoth smiled before flying off to stop the criminals.
Today was going to be another normal day it seems.
Down the street, a smiling boy watched the hero fly off before he looked forward at the school. "Finally, it's time I get to have some friends."
And the first chapter is done! Woo!
I hope you all liked this first chapter. If you want to see what Gino, Emma, Acel, and Felice look like, head over to my tumblr, thekitsune, where I have drawn their designs. They aren't the best, but that is what they look like. I don't have designs for Adult Marinette, Lila, etc though sorry. More next gen. kids will be drawn later.
Also, my other Miraculous fic, Fighting Over an Oblivious Heroine, will be updated soon.
