Hawkmoth was a very rich man but he got all his money because secretly he was the boss of a mob. They started out by smuggling stolen artifacts but police were getting too close. So now he had his gang steal animals to sell to other countries, at first they started with common strays but soon his customers demanded cleaner, nicer, and more expensive looking pets.

"I understand Sir." Hawkmoth said on the phone. He was talking with a wealthy man from Russia. "Okay...Yes I know no stray animals." He looked out the window and spotted Tom and Sabine walking by with Marinette."Hmm..." He thought. "Natalie!"

"Yes sir!" She said.

"What kind of breed of cat is that?"

"A Turkish Angora sir and if I'm not mistaken it's a purebred. Very rare."

"Really?"

"Yes very rare and expensive."

"Interesting. Carl"

"Yes sir!"

"Tonight I want you to go out and bring me that cat."

"Boss do I have to because-" He blew smoke from his cigar in his face. "Oh boss! That cigar!" He coughed.

"Shut up! And get me that cat."

"Yes sir!" He went to get ready.

"Um...sir." Natalie said. "What is that man going to do with the cat?"

"Stuff it, shave it, eat it, who cares?"

"Well the thing is sir the Dupain-chengs have always been so nice to me and they love that cat very much maybe we should-"

"Shut up!"

"Yes sir."

Carl got in his car and drove over to the bakery, he hid and waited for the perfect moment to strike. When it got late he saw Sabine leave a bowl of milk out for Marinette and go upstairs. He quickly snuck inside and slipped something into the milk. He hid and waited for Marinette to drink from it, which she did. In few minutes she fell asleep. He picked her up and headed back to Hawkmoth's lair but on his way back he made a wrong turn and his car slid across the road causing Marinette to get knocked out of the car into the wilderness. "Oh no! The boss is gonna kill me." He quickly went to look for her. It was storming outside and thunder was loud that it was enough to shake Marinette awake.

"Oh!" She gasped. "Oh where am I? I'm not at home at all." She got up and looked around. "Hello? Is anyone here?"

"Marinette?"

"Tikki. Oh Tikki. Are you alright?" She picked her up.

"Yes I'm fine."

"What on earth happened?"

"You fell asleep and I saw a strange man take you away so I followed you." Their ears perked up when they heard Carl coming. "That's him! The man! Quick Marinette hide."

She hid in the bushes.

"Here kitty, kitty, kitty." Carl said. "Here kitty."

"Here kitty, kitty," Marinette mimicked. "Yeah not on your life chubo." She climbed up a tree and waited until he left. Then she jumped down and turned back to her human form. "Oh dear me. We're a long way from home." It started to rain, Marinette put Tikki in her sweater pocket to keep her warm then went to find shelter for herself. She found a bridge and went under it.

"What are we going to do?"

"I don't know Tikki." Marinette sighed. "Oh poor Sabine, she'll be so terribly worried when she finds me gone."

Back in Paris..

"Marinette?" Sabine said waking up. "Oh my! I had the most terrible dream about her. Thank goodness it was only a dream. What a terrible night, Marinette must be so frightened." She got out of bed and went to where Marinette's basket bed was. "Don't be scared Marinette the storm will pass." But she pulled back the blanket to find the basket empty. "Oh no! She's gone. Tom! Tom! Wake up!"

"Mmmm...Huh? What?" He said waking up. "What is it?"

"Marinette's gone!"

"What do you mean?"

"She's not in her bed." They quickly started to look around the house but she was no where to be seen. Unknown to both of them Plagg was in the cupboard doing his nightly search of camenbert.

"Man! All these people have are sweets. The only cheesy thing they have is cheesecake." He took a bite of it. "Huh...Not bad, not bad at all."

"Marinette! Marinette!" Sabine called. "Oh no! I left the door open. You don't think she'd run away do you?"

"I don't know but we better put out a search."

Tom went outside to search while Sabine grabbed a phone.

"Well this isn't good." Plagg said munching on the cheesecake. "I better tell Adrien, right after I finish this delicious cheesecake."
