Marionettes POV
Slowly we walked towards the marble staircase that lead to master Fu's office. The journey was, until recently, in complete silence until I had tried to ask Adrien to about the whole firework thing... it didn't go well.
5 minutes ago
" erm... Adrien what was that all about... the fireworks I mean" I ask
"Well...you see... erm... I-I-I... don't know, or at least I couldn't be..."
We walked in silence after that
Now
"We're here" he said
"Oh..erm ok"
We proceeded up the marble staircase and came to a large painting, it was of a willow tree over a beck. The leaves glistened and swayed in the wind, the water gently rippling- WAIT WHAT... the paintings move... WOW. I must have gasped out loud because Adrien stared at me with a amused expression. "come on Mari... headmaster Fu is expecting us" he said, amused. still. "O-O-ok blondie" I stammered nervously
Adrien's POV
We had finally arrived in front of the willow beck painting...it had been kinda awkward on the journey hear because of the whole firework thing in Mari's room. I don't know what the fireworks were all about... well I know about the legends but there just legends right? It can't be can it?! Mari seemed in a daze when we arrived at the entrance to Headmaster Fu's office, I suppose I was the same the first time I went to see him. It is pretty impressive...
"come on Mari..." I think I must have startled her, she seemed nervous...bless "O-O-ok blondie" yup she's definitely nervous "Calm down Mari, were just here to get some answers... unless I'm right" I muttered the last part under my breath, it really can't be.
I walked over to the side of the painting and carefully pressed in the edging on the frame of the painting. slowly the painting moved backward and slid to the side revealing a statue of a ancient seer, a seer is someone who has the ability to see the future it is a very rare gift.
"password" echoed the monotone voice of the statue "Miraculous" I replied, glancing at Mari she looked like she was about to faint
the eyes of the statue glowed gold and glided backwards gracefully and turned round revolving slowly, as it turned it ascended upwards revealing a spiral staircase. Mari stood gobsmacked, but also getting more nervous by the second... I could see her shaking, sooo I slowly reached out and gently grabbed her hand. I felt her tense in shock at first but soon she relaxed and the shacking subsided... we shared a glance the ascended up the magnificent marble, spiral staircase. the walk was silent, but it was a comfortable silence, unlike before. she gasped at the large wooden doors and stated to shake again...
I turned her round so she was facing me...
"Mari, calm down" I said trying to sooth her "W-What I-I'm not n-nervous... who am I kidding I'm petrified" she admitted she is soooo cute- what wait oh and now I'm blushing. GREAT.
"Mari, its going to be ok!" I say whilst lifting up her chin with my hand- why am I acting like this.
I raise my hand and lightly knock on the ornate oak door...
