Chapter Two
*MANDY'S POV*
After all of Mandy's classes, she was off to cheerleading tryouts. Quickly changing into a white tank top and grey sweatpants, Mandy headed towards the court. She has done cheerleading in the past so she wasn't very worried. Once Mandy arrived at the court, she saw the coach and a large group of twenty to thirty girls waiting for her. Just great, Mandy thought to herself, I'm the last one to arrive. Mandy took a seat next to the rest of the girls in the bleachers. She felt silly that she was the only one not wearing a cheer outfit.
"Hello everyone, my name is Ms. Jones. And I do not like tardiness, remember that," Ms. Jones said glancing at Mandy. There were a group of six girls standing around her while everyone else was on the bleachers, "since everyone's here, we can go ahead and start. You all will compete for the last twelve spaces left. I will make the executive decision, but these six cheerleaders will have a say in who we pick," Ms. Jones explained.
After the coach called up the first girl, Mandy started to zone, boredom making her wish she had signed up sooner. After at least thirty minutes Mandy began to wish she hadn't come at all. She was the last person on the list meaning she had to pretend to be interested in the other girls performances, while trying not to die of anticipation.
"Let's see," the coach read her list, "Mandy Owen?"
Mandy felt her stomach drop at the sound of her name. She quickly stood up and looked at the coach, "Yes?"
"You're up," the coach said sternly. Mandy walked up to the front of the court and stood in front of the girls. Taking a deep breath, Mandy performed her cheer routine that's she's been practicing since sixth grade. She did a little chant, added with some peppy attitude, kicking her foot up to her head at the end of the chant. And for the finale, she did a back-handspring with a backflip at the end then landing into the splits. While in the splits, Mandy held her hands in the air, shaking them like maracas. She heard clapping from the coach and cheerleaders, and felt her face and ears begin to heat up.
"Very good performance Ms. Owen," Ms. Jones smiled, "whoever is chosen to be on the team will be posted tomorrow in the cafeteria. Thank you for coming to tryouts."
Mandy walked over to her bag and started packing her things. She couldn't wait for tomorrow when she could see the list holding her name. At least that's what she hoped for.
"You did amazing!" Mandy looked over to see Luna and Dillon, huge grins spread across their faces, "Yeah, you're definitely gonna make the team!" Dillon said, her smile growing impossibly wider.
"You really think so," Mandy said running her hands through her hair.
"Of course we do," Luna smiled encouragingly, "grab your stuff and we'll meet you outside." As they walked away, Mandy smiled happily, excitement burning through her gut. Dillon was right. She was going to make the team. Mandy grabbed her bag and the rest of her stuff and rushed out the door. As she walked outside, she saw an old man fall to the ground. Without hesitation, Mandy immediately went to help him.
"Are you okay, sir?" Mandy asked the man. The man looked into her eyes and hugged her. It was sweet but a little awkward, since he was the height of her hips, being she was VERY tall, "Thank you miss. You have a very kind heart." Than the man grabbed his cane and walked away. Mandy smiled and caught up to Dillon and Luna. When she reached them, Dillon's phone began to rang. She snatched the buzzing object from her back pocket and rolled her eyes.
"It's just my step-douche calling," Dillon groaned and walked away. Mandy and Luna stopped and watched Dillon in awkward silence. Mandy eyed Luna.
"Her parents got divorced two years ago after you left," Luna frowned, "She hasn't been the same since." Mandy frowned too and felt her friend's arm wrap around her shoulder. They watched their friend while she spat crude words through her phone. It looked like her head was going to explode. Poor Dillon, Mandy thought.
"Well I can walk you home if you'd like, Dillon is going to want some alone time," Luna grinned, "Plus I can say hi to your family!"
"That sounds nice." Mandy agreed, trying to avoid hearing Dillon's conversation. Luna told Dillon they were leaving and headed down the street, Mandy trailing behind her.
"So . . . Why did Annie and Louis divorce?"
"I don't really know the whole story, but I do know that Louis was drunk and said things that didn't really please Annie," Luna exclaimed.
"Oh," Mandy nodded slowly, trying to understand everything.
"Funny how many things can change in 3 years huh?" Luna said breaking the silence between them.
"Yeah. I mean, Dillon has blue hair!" Mandy laughed to herself. Luna laughed as well and looked forward. It was a good thing Mandy lived close to the school, because the silence felt like it started echoing through the air.
"We're here!"
*LUNA'S POV*
They finally reached Mandy's house and walked inside. Mandy took Luna in to say hi to her parents and sister. When Luna walked in, she was amazed by how clean and tidy it was. Definitely not like her house. Walking into the kitchen, Luna saw Mandy's mom and dad sitting at the dining table.
"Hi Mr. and Mrs. Owen." Luna said with a smile.
"Luna!?" Mandy's mom got out her seat, pulling her in a giant embrace, "You've changed so much!" Luna blushed and waved at Mr. Owen. He waved back, rubbing the bread crumbs off his mustache with his napkin.
From behind, Luna felt tiny arms wrap around her waist, "Luna!" Luna turned around and smiled. "Hey Asp…. Jesus! You've grown like two feet taller!" Luna laughed and pulled the small girl into her grasp.
"Is Griffin here?" Luna asked, slowly turning the color of a peach. Griffin was Mandy's older brother, who Luna secretly had a crush on.
"I'm afraid not sweetie, he's been in college for the last couple months," Mandy's mother smiled.
"Oh," Luna said kinda disappointed, "Well it was good to see you all again but I have to get home, I got some chores to do." Luna grabbed her bag that she dropped on the floor.
"Wait before you go, I want you to meet someone." Mandy grabbed Luna's hand and ran upstairs. She pulled her into a small blue themed bedroom. On the walls were train and car decals. The bunk bed near the wall was piled with toy cars and stuffed dinosaurs. Distracted from the solid colors invading Luna's vision, Luna heard a young voice come from the floor.
"Watch out m'lady! You need to be careful or we'll be in a very 'cheesy' situation."
Luna looked down and spotted a young toddler playing with ladybug and chat noir action figures. He was so cute!
"Watch out!" the boy screamed, starting to run around the room when he noticed Mandy and Luna staring at him.
"Mandy? Who that," the boy asked embarrassed, hiding his toys behind his back.
"Thomas, this is my friend Luna. Luna this is my little brother, Thomas."
"Brother?! How come you never told me about him before?" Luna stood shocked. Mandy shrugged and picked up the boy. It was obvious those two got along the best.
As if on cue, Luna's phone buzzed. Checking her messages Luna noticed that her mother had texted her asking where she was.
"It was nice meeting you Thomas, but I need to get home," Luna smiled at Thomas whose head was resting on Mandy's shoulder.
"Bye bye," he waved with his stubby hand.
Luna left the room and walked down the stairs, almost getting lost because the house was really big!
"Bye Mr. and Mrs. Owen," Luna said as she walked down the steps.
"Bye hun." Mandy's mom smiled, taking a seat at the table. Luna grabbed her bag and walked out of the door.
*MANDY'S POV*
When Mandy went into her room, she noticed something unfamiliar in her bag. It was a small box shaped like a octagon with weird printings all over it it. Mandy picked up the box and shook it. Whatever it was, it was small. She opened the box as a flash of yellow sprang out. Mandy fell to the floor shocked, and covered her eyes. When the light disappeared, Mandy looked at the box. Floating in the air was a giant bee.
"JESUS CHRIST KILL IT WITH FIRE! AHHHHH!" Mandy screamed scooting away from the huge bug. Mandy had a deathly fear of bees ever since she got stung on her eyelid when she was really little.
"No! Shh, shh!" the bug shushed Mandy, "It's okay, it's o- HEY!"
Mandy started to throw small objects at the bee before she ran to her bathroom. Closing the door behind her, Mandy sighed.
"Hi."
Mandy looked up to see the huge bee, floating above her. Mandy screamed and lost her balance. She fell backwards, grabbing her light blue shower curtain for support, it fell down with her into the tub.
"It's okay," the bee said slowly keeping her distance, "Don't be scared Mandy."
"It.. IT TALKS!?"
The bee stared at her like she was insane.
"Now, if you can please just calm down, I can tell you everything you need to know!"
*PETER'S POV*
While Peter drank from his afternoon coffee, he heard a loud screech came from upstairs, "JESUS CHRIST, KILL IT WITH FIRE! AHHHHH!"
"What the hell is going on up there?" Peter sighed, rushing out of his chair and into the hallway.
"Mandy?" Peter asked, "You alright?"
There was no answer. Worried, he ran up the stairs, tripping over his feet. "Mandy?" Peter ran to his daughter's door and opened it, slamming it into the wall. She wasn't in her bedroom. Peter looked around and heard something fall to the ground in the bathroom.
"Mandy, for god's sake!" Peter mumbled under his breath. He went over to the bathroom and knocked on the door. When there was no answer he slowly opened the door, peeking his head inside. Mandy, with the shower curtain on her head, was laying in the bathtub.
"What are you doing?" he laughed.
"Umm . . . . I saw a bug." Mandy smiled cheesily.
"You broke the shower curtain because of a bug?" Peter rubbed his eyes.
"IT WAS A HUGE BEE!" Mandy said exasperated.
"For god's sake Mandy, you gave me a heart attack!" Peter snapped.
"Sorry dad . . ." Mandy pulled the shower curtain off her head.
"Next time, don't break anything, ok?" Peter walked out of the bathroom, "Jesus child." He sighed holding his nose, "What are we going to do with you?"
*Mandy's POV*
After her dad left the room, Mandy stepped out of the tub and opened her cabinet, where the bee had hidden.
"Phew! That was close," the bee soared into the bedroom, "I thought he'd never leave."
"Hey, watch your mouth! That's my dad," Mandy crossed her arms.
"What? You don't want to get caught talking to a huge bee like me," the bee smiled mischievously.
"Caught doing what?" Mandy raised her eyebrows.
"Oh right! Before your dad came in, I was supposed to tell you this . . ." the bee continued telling Mandy why she was here.
"My name is Yumi and I am your Kwami, and I've come here to make you a hero! You will protect the people of… Where are we? Paris?" Yumi asked. Mandy nodded as the bee continued.
"Your special power is Dazed Sting; It's when you touch someone to make them freeze, and your weapons are the daggers that will be on your belt and you will be able to fly. Dazed Sting will wear off on its victim after a couple minutes. When you use your special power, you will have five minutes before you de-transform. Got it?" Yumi asked. Mandy nodded slowly.
"Now, all you have to do to transform into your costume, is just say 'Yumi, Stripes on!'. Easy right?"
"Seems simple enough. Okay . . . Yumi, Stripes on?" Mandy closed her eyes but nothing happened.
"What happened?" Mandy asked looking at herself.
"Oh yeah! I almost forgot," Yumi said, "You have to wear this hair clip." Mandy grabbed the clip and placed it in her ponytail. "Okay," Mandy said, "Let's try this one more time! Yumi, Stripes on!"
*Luna's POV*
When the final bell rang, Luna, Mandy, and Dillon headed out the classroom door.
"Bye guys," Mandy said walking towards the court, "I'm trying out for cheerleading!"
"Good luck!" Luna said giving her a thumbs up. Mandy smiled, and rushed away. Dillon and Luna walked outside. It was bright and sunny out, which made Luna shield her eyes with her hand. It didn't bother Dillon at all.
"Don't you think we should watch her practice?" Luna asked still shielding her eyes.
"Sure, there's nothing else to do, but let's wait out here for a while. We don't want to get mixed up with the cheerleaders" Dillon said walking over to the side of the steps before sitting down. Luna followed and sat down next to her.
"Do you think she'll get in?" Luna asked.
"Of course she'll get in. It's Mandy we're talking about, she gets into everything!"
Luna laughed. It was true though; in sixth grade she got the most ribbons for being in almost everything possible.
Luna and Dillon walked quietly past Mandy and sat down in the bleachers. Once they sat down, Mandy was sitting looking bored but nervous at the same time.
After what felt like forever Mandy was finally called up to preform. When she finished with the splits, both Luna and Dillon stood up and cheered for their friend. Mandy didn't look back but she looked proud of herself. Luna grabbed her bag and walked down the steps.
"That was amazing!" Luna smiled at Mandy. Dillon came from behind Luna and agreed, "Yeah, you're definitely gonna make the team!
"You really think so," Mandy said running her hands through her hair.
"Of course we do," Luna smiled encouragingly, "grab your stuff and we'll meet you outside." Luna walked off with Dillon and waited by the front. "So have you seen your dad?" Luna asked breaking the silence.
"No, mom doesn't think I should see him anymore," Dillon said looking down.
"Why?"
"I don't know. Maybe cause he's usually drunk when I see him."
"Oh."
Luna looked behind her and saw Mandy walking down the steps. "Took you long enough," Luna smirked.
"Sorry, I got caught up in something," Mandy tightened her ponytail. Suddenly, a faint buzzing noise came from Dillon's phone.
"Ugh! It's just my step-douche calling." Dillon walked away and answered her phone. Mandy looked at Luna in confusion.
"Her parents got divorced two years ago after you left," Luna said frowning, "She hasn't been the same since." Luna saw Mandy frowning so she placed her arm over her shoulder.
"Well I can walk you home if you'd like. Dillon is going to want some alone time," Luna said smiling. Plus I can say hi to your family!"
"That sounds nice." Mandy smiled at Luna.
*THE NEXT DAY AT SCHOOL*
"Good morning students," the teacher said, "Today we will be working on a group project about, Paris's two superheroes LadyBug and Chat Noir!" Everyone in the class looked up excited.
"Each group will write thank you letters to one of the two superheros. Okay I'll be pairing, Kim and Max you will be thanking, Ladybug, Chloe and Sabrina, Chat Noir, Rose and Juleka, Ladybug" the teacher said and kept reading her list.
"I hope I'm with one of you guys," Mandy said whispering to Luna and Dillon.
"Marinette and Alya Chat Noir, Mandy and Dillon Ladybug" the teacher said still reading her list, "And Adrien and Luna, Chat Noir." Luna looked down at Adrien before giving him a big smile because she knew how ironic this was.
BRIIIIIIIING!
"Okay students, that was the bell! Don't forget to work on your project." Everyone rushed out of the classroom with their partners. Luna grabbed her bag and slowly made her way out of the classroom. Mandy and Dillon looked at Marinette. She was crossing her arms with a very unpleasant look on her face.
"Um Marienette? You okay?" Mandy said waving her hand in front of Marinette's face.
"I can't believe she got paired with Adrien! I mean, I'm the one who loves him. What if he falls for her appearance? What if he takes her and leaves me in the mud? Noooooooooo!" Marinette said overeating.
Mandy rolled her eyes and put her hand on Marinette's shoulder, "Trust me," she said, "He doesn't like Luna that way." Mandy knew Adrien and Luna were great friends.
"That's a relief," Marinette said fanning herself, "Wait! Does that mean he likes another girl!?" Dillon rolled her eyes, grabbed Mandy, and walked out the door.
"Hey Luna!" Adrien said running up to her, "Do you want to work on the project at my place?"
"Sure. It beats my house." Luna said laughed.
"Cool, want a ride?" Adrien asked pointing to the limo waiting for him.
"Sure, I've never been in a limo before." Luna said with a smile. Adrien chuckled as he put his hand out to help Luna into the car.
"What a gentleman." Luna said pretending to swoon. Adrien rolled his eyes and smiled, "Haha, very funny." Adrien said sarcastically.
When they reached Adrien's home, he showed her around. Luna was amazed. It was huge! It made her jealous just to see it.
"Wow, your place is huge," Luna spun around, looking at the giant crystal chandelier. Adrien smiled and shrugged his shoulder.
"Yeah, it's nice but it can get boring after a while." Adrien sighed. "Well you'll need to meet my father, come on." Adrien said pointing with his thumb behind him before turning around. Luna followed Adrien from one gargantuan room into another.
"Nathalie!?" Adrien yelled.
"Yes" a voice responded as she walked into the room. The woman who walked in wore a purple suit with a red turtleneck sweater grasping her neck tightly. Her hair was the color of a starless night, her bangs the color of the morning sun. Vibrant blue eyes that showed no compassion, matched the thin line that was her lips. Her eyebrows furrowed ever so slightly as she eyed Luna then Adrien.
"Adrien, who is this?" Nathalie asked, her voice showing little emotion.
"Nathalie this is Luna, Luna this is Nathalie she works for my dad." Adrien stated.
"Hi! It's a pleasure to meet you!" Luna smile, and put her hand out for Natalie to shake.
"You as well," Nathalie said shaking her hand firmly, before looking to Adrien. "What was it you needed Adrien?" Nathalie asked.
"Oh right, do you know where father is? I need to see him." Adrien said looking at Luna from the side of his vision.
"He is in his study, but I do not believe he is busy, I will go get him."
"So anything I should know before I met your dad?" Luna asked.
"Not that I know of, I just want to make sure he 'accepts you' " Adrien said.
"Hello Adrien," The man, who Luna assumed was Mr. Agreste, walked in his arms behind his back, his sharp feature matching Nathalie, cold and showed no emotion. His blonde hair was slick against his head.
"Hello father, this is Luna, Luna this is my father."
"It is a pleasure to meet you Mr. Agreste," Luna said with a large smile, putting her hand out to shake his, "My name is Luna Rees."
"The pleasure is all mine," Mr. Agreste said shaking her hand.
"Well, I'm guessing you aren't just here to talk."
"Right, let's go work on our project, Adrien." Luna said, ready to leave the awkward silence.
"Yeah," Adrien agreed eyeing his father, his eyebrow furrowed.
*Adrien's POV*
Adrien thought back to when he first met ladybug. Wait! Today is the one year anniversary of when I became Chat! And when I met the love of my life! Adrien sighed.
"Adrien are you 0k?" Luna's voice broke through his thoughts.
"What?"
"Well, you just stopped walking and I thought something might be wrong." Luna's voice sounded worried.
"Oh how sweet, the girl cares!" Adrien jokes.
"Haha very funny," Luna hit him in the arm, before her smirk fell. "But seriously are you Ok?"
" Yeah, just got a lot on my mind," Adrien sighed holding his bedroom door open for Luna.
"Like wh….. WOW! Your room is… is HUGE!" Luna said forgetting about their conversation.
"Well we might as well get started," Adrien said trying to avoid explaining himself.
*Renard's POV*
Renard was bored out of his mind and Luna's backpack was really hot.
It wouldn't hurt if I looked around for some milk. Renard thought.
He left the backpack and was immediately hit by a familiar presence. He didn't see Luna anywhere but he was sure she was still here.
Plagg is here! I can sense him. Oh yeah, Adrien is Chat Noir!
Renard hadn't seen Plagg in years! Immediately Renard went to look for milk. Plagg can wait.
Renard flew around the house. If I were milk where would I be? He looked around the room. Still no sign of milk. Renard flew farther into the house when he heard a man's voice.
"Are you sure they were all gone?"
The one who was speaking was Adrien's dad, Gabriel Agreste. Painful memories flooded back. NO, don't think like that, it's all over now, at least I hope so.
"I couldn't tell." The voice broke through Renard's thoughts.
The other one speaking looked about Luna's age. He stood tall, around six two. His light brown hair stood straight up off of his forehead.
Renard flew closer and hid behind a wall.
"Thank you for the information, Ethan."
Walking away with Ethan, Mr. Agreste closed the painting he was rummaging through.
But he didn't close it all the way. Renard glanced down the hallway and dashed to the painting.
Renard wasn't very interested in the stuff when something caught his eye. It was the beautiful peacock miraculous. He picked it up and looked at it.
He needed to get this to The Great Guardian, now! But how would he, it was a long way even if he flew, but he would have to try.
*Luna's POV*
"So what's your opinion on Chat Noir?" Adrien asked eyeing her. Luna almost laughed out loud. She had met Chat once and knew Adrien was him. At first it was their similar features, then it was their scent; they both smell like camembert and Adrien's Dad's Cologne, When Luna uses her miraculous her sense of smell, hearing, and eyesight enhanced by a thousand.
Does Chat's senses enhance? Luna wondered.
"Luna, Luna, earth to Luna do you copy?"
"Huh, oh right he's ok, too flirty for my taste." Luna said with a smirk, she heard Adrien scoff. She saw Adrien get this look on his face like he felt offended and like he wanted to reply but he couldn't.
"Anyway we better get to work so we can finish this soon."
"Ok."
Shit! I left my bag down stairs Renard is in there. Let's hope that fox stupid doesn't get caught in a trap.
"Oh I left my bag down stairs, be right back." Luna stood up, walking towards the door.
"Do you want me to come with you?" Adrien asked.
" I'm a big girl, I can handle it myself!" Luna rolled her eyes.
"Fine, but if you aren't back in five minutes I am coming to find you!" Adrien placed his hands on his hips sassy like, just like Chat Noir.
"Fine, my lady." Luna smirked while bowing like Chat Noir, before leaving the room.
Luna walked down stairs and into the dining room looking around for her backpack.
"Ms. Rees, what are you doing down here?" Mr. Agreste's voice made Luna jump.
"Hey, Mr. Agreste I just left my bag down here is all." Luna chuckled nervously.
" Well perfect timing because I have an offer for you." Mr. Agreste stated.
"An… offer?" Luna said confused.
"Yes I would like to offer you a job as one of my models, you would work with Adrien and be one of my main sources for more curvy and petite clothing. I've already emailed your parents and I should be receiving an email back soon, all that is left to do is for you to say yes."
Luna's jaw dropped, "M-me? A model!? I mean I'm not a very model-y person." Luna sputtered.
"That is what makes you the perfect candidate someone who didn't grow up a beauty pageant winner but a regular girl. You'll be amazing so what do you say?"
"Um.. I.."
"Luna!" Adrien's voice broke through their conversation. "I thought you said you could han… Father?"
"Adrien, I was just talking to Ms. Rees here, I would like to offer her a modeling job, she will mostly work with you, but will have a few solo shoots." Adrien's eye widened, he quickly look at Luna who looked just as surprised as him. He quickly grabbed Luna's arm pulling her into the corner.
"Excuse us father."
"A modeling job? Luna are you going to do it? I never saw you as someone who would be a model."
"I didn't see myself as a model either but I guess Mr. Agreste thinks I'll be a perfect model for petite, curvy clothing seeing as that is not a very wide variety of that type of clothing I guess and I don't know, what do you think?" Luna asked, shrugging.
"I mean modeling can be fun, but it's a lot of work and no play. It can get tiring, but I guess if we work together it could be fun!"
"I mean It will be nice for the pay. Plus we can play dress up for work!" Luna joked. " but really It might be a good idea I've never had a job before and this will set me up for collage. But let's not tell the others! Imagine their reaction to us on a magazine together it'll be hilarious!" Adrien chuckled at Luna's mention of them being on a Magazine together.
Marinette's reaction would be hilarious! Luna liked to mess with her because of her giant crush on Adrien, but she never did it to hurt her feelings. Her and Adrien were only friends. Plus she new they were made for eachother, Adrien likes her but just doesn't know it yet, and to be honest Luna totally shipped them, HARD.
Luna turned to Mr. Agreste, "It's a deal." Luna said putting her hand out for him to shake. He quickly grabbed her hand shaking it thoroughly.
"We will work on the details later, but I expect to see you here tom.."
BOOOOOOOM!
"AHHHH!" Luna, Adrien, and Mr. Agreste screamed. Mr. Agreste grabbed both of their arms pulling them away from the room and towards another. Luna looked behind them to see a… a … Alien?!
"Hello Adrian!" The "Alien" sneered. "You're the reason the love of my life HATES ME!" It screamed. "So now you're going to pay!" The alien ran at them. Slapping Adrien into the glass table, Luna following him, also hitting Mr. Agreste into the wall, who upon impact passed out.
Luna hit the ground hard she felt a creak and tears welled up in her eyes she looked at her shoulder and immediately knew it was dislocated. Luna's vision went blurry from the pain.
Luna heard a loud moan and looked over to see Adrien laying in a pile of glass. She ran to completely forgetting about her arm. She ran to Adrien and knew she couldn't carry him with her arm the way it was.
Luna look around she saw a large piece of wood and knew what she was going to have to do. She slammed her arm into the wood cracking it in the process. More pain flooded her body and Luna knew she was in for it now, after a few seconds the pain subdued. Adrenaline pumped through her veins, making her forget the dull numb feeling making her arm throb.
"You really are fragile!" The Alien screeched,"Now all I need is Ladybug and Chat Noir's Miraculous." The Alien did something of a smirk though it was hard to tell because of it's hideous features. It turned toward the large hole in the wall.
Luna looked down at Adrien. "Stay here and please try not to move I'll get help, Catnip." Luna wiped the hair out of his eyes.
"RENARD FOX ON!" Luna screamed as she charged at The alien creature.
Luna jumped kicking The Alien as hard as she could, before blowing into her flute, making duplicates of herself.
Luna's duplicates jumped at The Alien, it swung its claws at one but it immediately poofed into nothing.
"WHERE ARE YOU KITSUNE!?" The Alien screeched.
"Right HERE!" Luna yelled hitting him as hard as possible with her flute. The monster shook its head before screaming. The force of his scream throwing Luna across the room.
Luna stood up, wiping the blood from her nose and lip.
Suddenly out of nowhere, a large explosion threw the alien into the wall. It was Ladybug, she was finally here.
"Are you ok?" Ladybug asked eyeing Luna's busted lip and bloody nose.
"It's not me you should be worried about it's Adrien Agreste and his Father. They were both hurt by this creature." Luna said, her face filled with worry.
Ladybug's expression became serious. "Wait, where's Adrien?"
"I'll take care of him and his father for now you just keep this thing busy!" Luna throwing one last blow at the Alien.
Luna ran to Adrien, and slowly picked him up, he clung to her neck like it was the only thing keeping him alive.
"You're… Kitsune?" Adrien mumbled in her ear.
Luna sighed, "Yes."
Adrien didn't say anything after that. Luna ran into Adrien's room, sitting him up on his bed.
"I'll be right back I need to get your father." Luna took off in a run down the steps and into the room Ladybug was fighting The creature in.
"Do you need me at all?" Luna asked.
"No I think I got this one covered Kitsune, but I wonder where Chat is."
"He's…. On a family vacation." Luna lied.
"He is?"
"Yes, now if you'll excuse me I'm going to grab Mr. Agreste and go play doctor." Luna said saluting Ladybug, before running to Mr. Agreste.
*ADRIEN'S POV*
Luna was back upstairs, after what felt like forever. She had carried Adrien's father up there and had determined that he had a concussion, but she had told Adrien she was more worried about his injury.
"May I?" Luna asked as she held onto the rim of Adrien's shirt.
Adrien nodded, causing him to flinch in pain.
Adrien felt Luna pull the shirt up and pain rippled through his body making him gasp. Luna stared at him with a worried look before looking at his back and gasping in shock.
"I'm going to need to carry you to the nearest hospital. You're going to need stitches, do you think you can handle that?" Luna asked worried.
"Yeah," Adrien winced, "but what about my father and Ladybug?"
"He should be fine here and Ladybug can take care of herself" Luna picked up Adrien and took off in a run.
Once outside Luna started jumping rooftops. Every time Luna's feet hit the roof Adrien felt pain shake his body.
"Almost there. Please just stay awa…" Luna encouraged as Adrien's world started to fade….
*Renard's POV*
Renard flew through the air the Peacock Miraculous was very heavy. Renard was surprised he had held it this long until he felt himself being called back to the miraculous.
No! Was Renard last thought as he became Kitsune's power source.
*Dillon's POV*
Dillon had been walking home when she saw a beautiful hair clip on the ground.
What is this doing here? Dillon thought as she picked it up and decided she would look at it more when she got home.
Dillon finally got to her room, she carefully picked up the clip and examined it. It was blue and made of glass, she was surprised that it hadn't broke when it's old owner dropped it. She placed the clip in her hair and it began to glow.
POP!
"Gahhh" Dillon yelped.
Flying in front of Dillon was a bird, but it wasn't a bird it had its eyes closed and instead of winds it had weird nubs. Dillon backed away from the bird and slowly grabbed a book.
"It's been so.. Wait you're not her."
"You! You can talk?" Dillon asked nervously. The bird was about to answer when Dillon swatted at it with the book. The bird flew away just in time.
"Wait! Stop that! Hey!" the bird yelled, "Let me introduce myself. I am Pia, and I am your kwami." Dillon dropped the book and came closer.
"Since you're not the person I was expecting, I'll tell you everything you need to know about being a hero!"
"What? Me? No, I'm a nobody!"
"Trust me! First of all, your weapon is your beauty! All you have to say is 'Mystical Beauty'! Than you can hypnotize anyone. This will wear off when the akuma has been captured. When you use your special power, you will have five minutes before you de-transform. Got it?" Dillon nodded slowly.
"Now, all you have to do to transform into your costume is just say 'Feathers out!'. Easy right?" Dillon nodded slowly.
"Are you gonna transform?" Pia asked.
"Nah! I'll transform when I feel like it," Dillon said walking towards her closet.
"Really?" Pia asked.
"Yep," Dillon said changing into her pajamas.
"Fine. I guess I'll just have to be patient," Pia said crossing her arms.
"Looks like it!" Dillon said heading into her bed.
"Okay okay! I'll stop bugging you!" Pia said finding a place to sleep. Me? A hero? Why me? I'm just ordinary Dillon Thomson. Whatever would happen next, for the first time in forever, Dillon was scared.
