Nino's Perspective

The ride to the hospital, besides the mice flying around and talking, was relatively quiet. Alya rested her head on my shoulder the whole way there and when we were ushered out, i found that there were hot tears on my shirt. The black flying thing said to tell them that Mari fell and hit her shoulder and head. The akuma was, after all, at school and there were no cameras to check. The students were at gym, and were not allowed to bring their phones. Sure, word could travel but without the authorities seeing Mari with the earrings, there would be no proof. Adrien, on the other hand, needed to come up with another plan for his ring.

A few hour later one of the nurses came and told us she was stable but still under examination. She wasn't awake yet, but we got clearance to see her. Apparently, Mari had been here often for scrapes,cuts, and even a break. Her parents, however, were in Germany to help with a wedding of their friends and left their daughter at home.

We all entered the room and sat down, but i could not stop staring at Adrien. I mean, come on!

"Adrien?" I heard Chloe wimper, the one person out of place. Why was she even here? She hates Marinette to the core!

"What is it?" he replied roughly.

"Why didn't you tell us?" Alya interrupted. Chloe was taken aback from her boldness, wanting to clearly say it in a lighter tone.

"Alya, babe...he wasn't allowed to. You know that." I said, hugging her as the heart monitor beeped in the background.

"You don't think I know that? I, of all people in Paris, searched the most. I even thought CHLOE was Ladybug. I barely even considered Marinette as an option!" She said, voice barely under a yelling tone. At this, Chloe started to cry.

"We hated each other so much...but i can't even count how many times she saved me. I can't believe it." She gasped between sobs, drawing out sympathy from even me. That, of course, was when we heard it.

"Mom? Dad? Where am I, who are you people?" the voice said, resonating from the bed.

Crap.

Please review, more to come.
