Chapter 2
As they pulled into the parking lot, the dozing Marinette jerked awake to find a sleeping Adrien leaning on her shoulder. She made some sort of squeaking sound, making Nino turn around in his seat.
"How are you lovebirds doing back there," Nino snickered as Alya parked the car.
Now Alya turned around snickering and said, "You should probably wake him up now, Mari."
"O-ok," Marinette stammered shaking Adrien's shoulder.
Adrien woke up to a tilted view, someone shaking his shoulder, and the snickering faces of Alya and Nino. He then sat up and sleepily asked, "Are we here already?" He then realized he had been leaning on her shoulder. "S-sorry, Mari, I guess I fell asleep," he said scratching the back of his neck sheepishly.
They all got out of the car and walked into the mall through the sliding doors. They first went over to Macy's to look at all the different styles of outfits. As they were trying on silly hats, scarves, and such they heard a crash and yelling coming from the other side of the mall. Alya and Nino run to go hide and Adrien and Marinette run off separately and nowhere to be seen.
"Plagg, this place is in trouble, people might be hurt. Plagg, Claws out!" Adrien said from his spot in a clothing rack.
"Tikki, we need to make sure that everyone's safe! Tikki, Spots on!" Marinette said from the dressing room she was in.
Ladybug swung through the mall, towards the akuma victim and heard the words she hoped not to hear.
"Chloe Bourgeois, I'm coming for you!" the akumatised victim yelled.
"God dang it," Ladybug said under her breath standing on the second level over by the akuma victim. She heard a thump next to her, which signified the arrival of Chat.
Chat came up, put a hand on her shoulder, and asked, "Hello, M'Lady, have you worked out how to fight this villain?"
"No, and I can't figure out where the object is either," she groaned. She looked at the akumatised woman, studying her. The woman had brown, tangled hair, a gray-green vest with a bright blue long sleeve shirt under it, cowboy boots with jeans covering the tops, over the jeans she wore a see-through pink skirt, and she had on red lipstick that was a bit smudged. The thing Ladybug noticed was that the only piece of jewelry the tall woman was wearing was a gold watch that she was using to zap people's clothes.
Chat looked over at Ladybug's face and she had the expression that said she had figured out where the akuma was "I guess you found where the akuma is, Bugaboo?"
"I think I did, let's show ourselves to her first, come on," Ladybug commanded.
"Right on your heels L.B," Chat said.
They jumped down to the second floor where they saw the victim zapping people's clothing into horrible outfits.
She spotted them and said, "My name is Fashion Disaster, but you can call me Fashaster for short."
"Ok then Fashaster, let's get this over with quickly," Ladybug said.
