Hey everyone! I had received a review saying that you can't have two butterfly miraculouses. Well, I have a reason for why Adeline is a holder of a butterfly miraculous. Well, I have an idea for this, and I need you guys to be patient for when you find out why there is 2 butterfly miraculouses out in the world. Also, I don't remember what his Kwami's name is. So, if any of you can clarify in the review what Hawk Moth's Kwami's name is, please, I'd be grateful if you could. But enough of this idea! I also want to apologize for all the type-o's in the last chapter. Like I said, I was in a hurry to get it out before work that day, and I didn't have time to read it over. So, sorry about that. Anyway, enjoy Chapter 4! P.S, in case you couldn't guess, but Serena's father during the Silver Millennium had black hair...just saying.

Marinette flew into the alley near her home, and changed back into her civilian form before walking up to the front door, and walked in. She walked up to her room, and sat at her desk, just looking at the blank monitor of her computer, when she felt a hand on her shoulder, making her spin around out of fear, only to see that it was Adrien right there, in his civilian form.
"Adrien? What are you doing here?" She asked, not at all surprised. He was Chat Noir after all, and he was pretty fast. So it didn't really surprise her that he was there before her. And she was too tired to even care that he was in her room at the moment.
"I came to see how you were doing." Adrien answered. "You seem to be going through so many changes right now."
"Well, duh." Marinette stated as she stood up from her desk chair, and walked to her bed.
"Learning that I'm Chat Noir...:
"...and you learning that I'm your lady." Marinette added as she sat down on her bed, with a playful smirk on her face.
"Yeah...I'm glad about that." This shocked Marinette. How was he glad it was her?
[The parts of this scene coming up, I got the idea from a comic of Miraculous: Tales of Ladybug and Chat Noir that I heard (it was a comic dub on YouTube) with a few little tweaks that I made to make it my own. I don't know who drew and wrote the comic, but whoever made it, credit goes to them.]
"Why you glad it's me?" She asked. "I mean, under the mask, I'm just a rash, careless, clumsy girl. I'm probably not the Ladybug you were hoping I'd be."
Adrien thought about this for a long time, before he sat down next to her on her bed. "Brave? Check..." He began, making Marinette look at him confused. "Witty? Check. Amazing? Check. Righteous? Check. Selfless? Check. Beautiful? Oh, boy check! Talented? Check. Kind? Check"
"What are you doing?" Marinette asked after a while, sounding a bit annoyed.
"Curious? Check." Adrien added with a wink towards her before he placed a hand under her chin to make her look up at him completely. "Adorible freckles? Definite check."
"Adrien...?"
"I'm describing Ladybug, with words that I would use to describe you, Marinette. Because, you see..." Adrien began, making Marinette feel like she was sitting on the edge of her seat. "...with or without that mask, it's the same person underneath. It's this incredibly kindhearted, beautiful, smart girl, whether she wears a red, black spotted suit, or a white, flower printed shirt. And well..."
"Well what?"
"I'm just here, wondering if she also likes the boy in the black leather get up with the dumb cat puns."
"Adrien..." Marinette began, as Adrien scooted closer to her, putting an arm around her. "...of course I do." And without warning, they leaned in and shared a long, passionate kiss. Their first kiss, as a sign of love and partnership. And as Marinette was kissing her Chat Noir, she could feel her heart flying higher than ever, and the butterflies in her stomach were going crazy. She finally got him as hers, and she couldn't believe it.
After they pulled away, they had their foreheads touching, with small grins on their mouths, and pink coloring their cheeks. "I'm glad it was you." Adrien said, making Marinette grin even more.
"Right back at ya, kitty." She said, making Adrien chuckle some as he put his arms around her, hugging her, with Marinette wrapping her arms around his torso, while placing her head into his chest.

"You IDIOT!" A female voice yelled at Hawk Moth, as the masked man looked at her by just turning his head a slight bit. "Crystal Tokyo was in my grasp!"
"It's not my fault Ladybug and Chat Noir defeated the Akuma!" Hawk Moth stated with anger lacing his voice.
"But it wasn't just Ladybug that defeated her!" The woman yelled as she walked into the light of the window, showing off her long wavy red hair with darker red highlights throughout it. It would have hit the ground it was so long, if she didn't have the double buns on the top of her head. "She saved the future Neo Queen!"
"Like I said, it's not my fault!"
"Oh, it might as well have been, you imbecile!" The lady yelled back as she starts looking at his miraculous sitting by his neck, before reaching up to it slowly, and placing her delegate fingers on gently, with her long fingernails scratching the surface. She was going to rip it off of his suit, when she felt the sting of pain hit her hand, for Hawk Moth smacked her with his cane, making her stagger back with grimaces of pain as she grabbed her injured hand.
"Why you...?!" She began to say as she created a fireball in her hand to throw at him.
"Relax, Nefari!" Hawk Moth stated. "I understand your anger! I feel that every time Ladybug and Chat Noir foil me! But that doesn't mean you have the right to take my miraculous!"
"DON'T TELL ME TO RELAX!" The girl, known as Nefari now, screamed as she shot the fireball at a butterfly, burning it to a crisp.
"Remind me why you want this place called, Crystal Tokyo?" Hawk Moth asked as he looked at the window.
"Why?" Nefari repeated as she looked at him. "My mother wanted to rule the whole solar system. All the planets in outer space, and the big one of all, the Moon Kingdom."
"Who was your mother?"
"What does that matter?! The point is, I am here during the time of Cyrstal Tokyo, before it's begun...and I am able to stop it from happening." Nefari looking at a photo of her mother, with her red hair blowing all about, and her purple dress as well. "I'd rather follow in my mom's footsteps, then be my own kind of villain. I'd rather, be the ruler of Cyrstal Tokyo myself."
"I see..." Hawk Moth began. "...you want to be like your mother who is...who exactly?"
"You really want to know?"
"Absolutely!"
"Fine!" Nefari yelled as she showed him the photo she was looking at in her hand. "Her name...was Queen Beryl."

"Pluto, what will happen if we don't find my future Aunt?" Rini asked as they all sat in the hotel room, with Rei comforting Serena in her time of weakness. She was just akumatized, of course she'd be a basket case.
"Do you really want to know?" Setsuna asked.
"I know I do." Leda responded.
"Same!" Mina exclaimed.
"I wouldn't mind knowing." Amy added, as she set down the book she was reading.
"Same here! I want to know who this mystery princess is!" Rei yelled with anger and curiosity in her voice.
"Serena?" Setsuna asked, as the future queen looked up at her, and nodded her head. The older sailor scout sighed as she held up her Pluto Rod.
(SONG: "Rumor in St. Petersburg" – Anastasia)*
Setsuna let the sphere glow on her Pluto Rod, taking them back to the remains of the Moon Kingdom before Crystal Tokyo. It was a ruined neighborhood that looked like it had all the people of the Moon Kingdom growing old and living with others. It was sad to see, even for the future Neo Queen Serenity.
"Whoa. This is Crystal Tokyo?" Serena asked, sounding like she was feeling bad for everyone there.
"Yes...before you show up." Setsuna answered with a monotoned grin on her face.
CITIZEN 1: The Moon Kingdom is gloomy
CITIZEN 2: The Moon Kingdom is bleak
HOBO: My underwear got frozen standing here/all/week.
ALL: Every since that deadly battle/our lives have been so gray/thank goodness for the gossip/that gets us through the day! HEY! Have you heard/there's a rumor in the Moon Kingdom/have you heard/what they're saying on the street?
CZAR MARS: All though the queen did not survive/one daughter maybe still alive
ALL: The Princess Andromeda!
CZAR MARS: But please do not repeat.
ALL: Its a rumor/a legend/a mystery/something whispered in an alleyway or through a crack/it's a rumor/that's part of/our history!
GYPSIE: They say our future Neo Queen will pay a royal sum
ALL: To someone who can bring her sister back!
Everyone was rushing to work or home, as others just stood around with newspapers, and children sitting on benches, waiting for a meal. Serena couldn't bare to see this anymore.
That's when Serena and the others noticed two people walking along the road. One was a black male with headphones hanging around his neck, and wearing a suit and tie, while the other was a white male wearing something they all remembered Darien wearing when he was Prince Endymion, only in black black and white instead of dark blue and white [It looked dark blue to me]. And he had blond hair and dark electric green eyes. Something about him brought Serena a sense of familiarity. She had seen him before somewhere.
CLERK 1: A ruble for this painting/it's Moonview/I swear
CLERK 2: King Jackson's pajamas/comrades, buy the pair
CLERK 3: (To the blond male and black male) I got this from the palace/it's made with real fur
ALL (CLERK 3, BLOND MALE, AND BLACK MALE): it could be worth a fortune/if it belonged to her.
Serena noticed the boy with blond hair buy the coat that looked familiar. It was dark gray wolf fur on the outside, and lined with red fabric on the inside. Why would that boy buy a jacket like that? Other than that he looks like a prince of some kind. She thought to herself, as she continued to watch the prince looking boy, and the suit and tie black boy walk to a little hide out, having the scene change in front of them, showing what they were planning.
The blond male was looking at a photo of what the Scouts assumed to be Princess Andromeda Moonview on the Moon Kingdom. Her black hair up in tiny low pigtails and her blue bell eyes made this man melt every time he stared at the photo. Even her smile, so radiant, so full of life. Here's hoping he could find the right girl.
"What do you suppose we do now, Atlas?" The black male asked as he sat down near the man now known as Atlas. He looked over at his friend as he picked up the photo of Andromeda before placing it in his satchel, and taking off his princely top, only to throw on a normal black tank top and a black button up shirt, leaving the buttons undone at the neck.
"We find the right girl." Atlas said as he rolled up the sleeves of his shirt to his elbows. "Just think, Vulcan. We'll finally be noticed again. You, known for being a director of movies, and me..."
"...the Prince of the Moon, Prince Atlas Noir." Vulcan finished for him with a smile as he threw off his suit and tie, replacing it with a baggy top, and normal blue jeans and sneakers.
ATLAS: It's the rumor/the legend/the mystery/it's the Princess Andromeda who will help us fly/you and I friend/will go down/in history/we'll find a girl to play the part/and teach her what to say/dress her up/and take her to Paris/imagine the reward our dear old Neo Queen will pay/who else can pull it off but you and me/we'll be rich!
VULCAN: We'll be rich!
ATLAS: We'll be out!
VULCAN: We'll be out!
BOTH: And the Moon Kingdom will have some more to talk about!
That was when Atlas and Vulcan left the hide out, and the scene changed back to outside, with everyone now dancing to the music. But The Scouts, Luna, and Rini saw girl wearing a brown cloak, with the hood over her head so no one could see her face or hair color, running through the crowd like it wasn't hard at all. But Serena noticed black hair, with a slightly blue tint to it peeking through.
ALL CITIZENS: Shhh! Have you heard/there's a rumor in the Moon Kingdom/have you heard/what they're saying on the street/HEY! HEY! HEY! Have you heard/there's a rumor in the Moon Kingdom/have you heard/comrades, what do you suppose/a fascinating mystery!
ATLAS: The biggest con in history!
ALL CITIZENS: The Princess Andromeda/alive...or...dead...!
CLOAKED GIRL: (Stops running and looks at the group) Who knows...shhh!
(End of song)
The time stopped, and they were all sent back to the present time. Setsuna looked at the younger scouts, waiting for their reactions.
"That's it?" Rei asked.
"Not just that. As time goes on, Neo Queen Serenity shows up to her palace, and is then married to her king..." Setsuna began, making Darien come out of Serena's room. Everyone forgot he was in there. "...then, the man you see as Atlas, gives up after a while. And Princess Andromeda is never found."
"Then we have to find her." Darien said. "For Serena, and the future of Crystal Tokyo."
"I agree." Setsuna began with a grin. "And I think I know where to start.

A young blond male was hanging with his friends, helping people from the recent attack on the castle, when his one friend pointed something odd out.
"Atlas, look!" She yelled, making the man known as Atlas look over to see a girl lying unconscious on the ground, with her red gown flowing all around her, and her black flats peeking out from underneath it.
"Thanks, Alya!" He yelled to her, before running up to the unconscious 10 year old. He was 10 as well, but he grew up quick with his family being what it was. So, he was helping with his friends who were the same age.
"Hey, kid. Can you hear me?" He asked her as he flipped her over, and saw the compact by her in her right hand. The first thing he noticed about the compact was the fact that it had the Moon Kingdom's symbol on the lid, making the young kid sigh in defeat. "The Moon Kingdom has fallen." He said, before the image changed of him at 15, and as Adrien Agreste.
Adrien looked around the kingdom, seeing many faces, but stopped at the sight of the princess he found years ago staring at him, and wearing just a normal outfit of a pink mini-skirt and white top, holding the same compact as she did back then.
Then, her look changed to that of the Ladybug suit. But one thing was missing, and that was the mask. She looked at him, with soft eyes, as a gold crescent moon glowed on her forehead, and shot a piece of light at Adrien, hitting him the forehead as well. That was when...he remembered.
Adrien woke up in the middle of the night, and looked at the recent photo of him, Adeline, and Marinette, his new girlfriend, all sitting the park after finding out who they were, and after Marinette and him shared their first kiss. He was the one who took the photo with his phone, and then just uploaded it to his computer, printed it out, and put it in a picture frame to set on his nightstand so he'd wake up to Marinette's smiling face every morning.
As Adrien stared at the photo, he kept seeing the crescent moon on Marinette's forehead, which made him sit up in surprise. "No way..." He began. "...Marinette's the girl from then...she's the young Princess I tried to help."
XXXXXXXXXX
The following day was the same old thing. Marinette woke up, grabbing her book bag, and running to school, almost late. But she managed to get there on time, only to stop at the sight of the same girl from the park the other day.
"Serena! Let's go!" Rini whined as she was leaning against the staircase railing.
"In a minute Rini. Setsuna needs to find someone important." Serena replied.
"You mean your long lost sister?"
"She'll be your aunt, Princess Rini." Setsuna stated, before noticing Marinette looking at them. There you are.
Marinette took a deep breathe before walking up to them, and smiling. "Hi...I'm Marinette Dupain-Cheng. Can I help you find someone?" She asked.
Serena looked over at her, and immediately, her heart sang. Marinette had the same look as Ladybug, well feature wise. But she also reminded Serena of when she was 15.
"Actually...we were looking for you." Setsuna stated.
"Me? Why?" Marinette asked, confused.
"Be..." Setsuna began, but was interrupted by a perky blond.
"We were told by a source that you could show us around Paris. We're from Japan and have never been here before." Serena said with a smile on her face.
"Oh, I'd love to! I just have to go to school today. Maybe later tonight when I'm done. My friends and I will show you all our favorite places!" Marinette answered with a smile of her own, which freaked out Rini...they looked identical.
"Oh, merci!" Serena declared in French.
"Vous êtes les bienvenus! (You are welcome!)" Marinette replied before hearing the bell go off. "I better get going. Class will start soon. See ya after school!" And before they knew it, the young black haired girl ran into the school, with Adrien holding out his hand for her when she got to the top of the stairs. She took it, and they both walked to the classroom together.
"And now, our plan is set in motion." Serena stated.
~END OF CHAPTER~
Sorry for the long wait. Haven't been motivated to write in a while. But I'm back and ready to take on this story once more. So thank you guys for reading, and I hope to get Chapter 5 done sometime over the weekend. I'm going to be busy tomorrow, and on Friday and Saturday.
