Few hours later,
"Grrr, these bars are so hard to get out of," said Ladybug as she used all her strength to break the bars. "I see you have already transformed Marinette," said Hawkmoth standing near. "If you want my earrings so badly why don't you just take them?" asked Ladybug. "You want to know why? Your earrings are now connected to you!" shouted Hawkmoth. "What?" asked Ladybug. "I mean like I can take the earrings off but the magic would still remain in you, because you never gave up your miraculous in the first place," said Hawkmoth. "So is this why you came up with this deal?" asked Ladybug. "Of course Ladybug otherwise why would I keep you here?" asked Hawkmoth. "Well…" started Ladybug. "See what I mean? By the way, lucky charm won't help get you out of there," said Hawkmoth. "No wonder these bars are so hard," gritted Ladybug as she pulled one more time. "In the meantime, I think it is time to call your heroic Chat Noir," snarled Hawkmoth holding up his.
Meanwhile
"Ring ring," rang the school bell. "Okay children, remember to finish your French valentine letters for homework, have a good day class," said Ms Bustier as the students hurried out of the classroom. "Hey Alya, are you okay? You seemed pretty quiet today," asked Adrien with a concerned voice. "Bro have you not seen the posters stuck around Paris? Marinette is missing!" whispered Nino. "Missing? What do you think happened?" asked Adrien with a loud whisper. "Well her parents think that she has been kidnapped since she left without any trace," said Alya. "I wonder if Ladybug and Chat Noir would look for her," said Nino. "Of course they will, they are superheroes," said Alya. "Umm guys I have to go, Natalie is here," said Adrien sighing. "See you," they said as Adrien stepped into the car.
"Adrien, your father has sent you a message that he will be away for at least a week since he has a business trip to attend to," said Natalie. "Another business trip?" asked Adrien. "Yes, this time it is more important than ever, he says," said Natalie. "Hmm…" said Adrien thinking about how he would approach Ladybug on this curious mystery.
"Where is Ladybug? She is never late, well probably a few times but where is she?" mumbled Chat Noir as he walked back and forth on the roof of the building. "Ring ring Ring ring," rang his phone. "Hawkmoth?!" shouted Chat Noir as he pressed the answer button. "Hello Chat Noir," snarled Hawkmoth. "Hawkmoth, what have you done?" gritted Chat Noir forgetting all about Marinette being kidnapped. "Well lets just say that I have kidnapped your purr-ecious Ladybug," said Hawkmoth laughing wickedly. "Where is she?!" shouted Chat Noir.
"Listen up, Chat Noir, you have only one chance to find your precious Ladybug, unless you want to give up so easily," snarled Hawkmoth. "Tell me now!" Chat Noir shouted. "I will be giving you a few code words on where the lair is and in order to pass the akuma guard on the door, you must answer one question," said Hawkmoth. "What is it?" asked Chat Noir. " The question is: Who is Ladybug?" said Hawkmoth smiling at Chat Noir's pained face. "Hope you have a pen and paper ready, your first clue is a teapot," said Hawkmoth. "A teapot?" asked Chat Noir looking surprised. "Well Chat Noir, I would only give you your second clue once you figure out what your first clue is, by the meantime I am sure you would want to see Ladybug," said Hawkmoth. "Ladybug?" repeated Chat Noir. "Ladybug, don't worry Chat Noir, this isn't going to be easy for you since she has already transformed," confirmed Hawkmoth as he revealed Ladybug struggling to get out of the prison cell. "Chat?" Ladybug whispered, her eyes brimming with tears. "M'lady? Are you okay?" said Chat Noir gently. "I am okay for the moment, listen Chat, I can't use my lucky charm to get out of here since these walls are too strong, but I want help you with the first clue…" said Ladybug. "Why can't you tell me where the lair is?" said Chat Noir. "I can't, hmm the teapot, well you know the old man that owns the meditation area, I think the first clue is around that area," said Ladybug. "I never heard of that man and place," said Chat Noir. "Umm you know the old man that needed help, on the first day that school opened," said Ladybug quickly. "Umm the one with the goatee beard and the red Hawaiian shirt?" asked Chat Noir. "Yes, that's him, he owns a flat where he gives massages and Chinese treatment to patients," said Ladybug. "Good luck, Chat Noir for you will need it if you want to save purr-ecious," snarled Hawkmoth as he ended the call with a wicked laugh.
