Ok everyone sorry for the long wait I wanted this chapter out some time ago but unfortunately I got a new video game that slowed me down. Plus a convention to prepare for as well which did not make things any easier. And in a couple of screw ups and some depression and well you get the idea. Well this chapter is done longer then I thought I wanted it but the more I typed the more it made sense to add more. I hope this chapter is what people wear hoping for as this one will herald the coming of more of the plot and push it along. There will be lots of elements for future chapters teased in this one so look forward to that and I hope all of you like my take on ladybugs new look. I will admit it needs some refinement and I'm not that great of an artist so I won't draw a visual aid but if someone else wants to they can. Other then that I think that's all the pre chapter info you all need so leave a fav, follow or review sit back relax and enjoy the show….ok technically it's an Ebook but you get my point.
Chapter 5 caged hawk.
It was early afternoon ladybug could tell from the way the sun hit her face. She was currently facing a stone wall in a corner waiting for someone. Now one might ask what the parisian luck charm was doing facing a wall in a building surrounded by brick walls. When if she was to be honest should be at home with tiki staying in close proximity to adrian. But right now she had a job to do whether she liked it or not she had to do this. As for how she was able to be here without worrying about adrian that's a bit harder to explain. See last nigh...
MEOW-MEOW-MEOW-MEOW-MEOW-MEOW-MEOW-MEOW-MEOW-MEOW-MEOW-MEOW-MEOW
The previous evening.
It was late at night in the dupan-chang residence alya had already gone home for the night and her parents wear getting ready for bed. Marinette was sitting at her desk with tikki discussing something intently staying away from adrian as not to make too much noise. "Tikki I need to do this." marinette said to her kwami partner with shakened determination. While it was clear that she wanted to do something it was not with true resolve. Tikki however unsurprisingly was unconvinced by marinette words and it showed "marinette you have nothing to prove. All you would do is confirm what we already know." she said in her usual high pitched voice.
Marinette just groaned loudly pushing away from the desk irritated. "Tikki don't you think I know that." she answered back surprising the kwami at her brashness. Marinette sight putting a hand up to cover her eye's. Both the spirit and girl wear quite for a few moments before marinette lowered her hand looking back down to her partner seemingly calmed down slightly. "Tikki am sure we won't get anything out of it." she said getting a look of equal surprise and confusion. "Look tikki I don't expect to get an information we don't already know. I want to do it so I can face my fears.". Tikki's eyes widened slightly as for as long as she has know she never new marinette to admit her fears. Much less show them. She had been the pinnacle of courage for as long as they have been partners. Her only fault was her lack of confidence in the beginning which subsided over time. Now she was in her mind all but fearless like joan of arc.
Marinette seeing the intel confused look could not help but smile weakly at the energetic red ball of magic. "Tikki ever since that first day as ladybug I have been afraid of so many things. While most of those fears are gone now. There is still one fear I need to face for myself. And I need to do it as ladybug not marinette." she said with a bit more fire this time.
Quite come over the pair again as the seemed to have a proverbial staring contest of sorts. However after several long seconds. Tikki closed her eye's with a sigh "I understand" she said returning a gaze with a look of understanding. Clearly tikki herself had experienced similar trials in her past and realized that marinette needed to face her demons on her own instead of hiding from them. "Huh! Allright marinette I understand." the red spirit said much to the girls surprise. "Just know I will support you and your dission." the little spirit said quietly. It was clear that she did not think that is was such a good idea, but there were somethings you just had to do for better or for worse. And this was one of those things that just had to be done and all the spirit could do was watch over her.
Marinette was thankful that tikki relented in her act to sway her from going. 'But, that still leaves one problem.'. Looking up at her bed she could still see hear adrian's rough breathing. And even wit tikkis help it would take days or even weeks. That said she could not risk leaving adrian without magic healing encase he took a turn for the worse. And even if she did she had no idea how long it could take to do what she needed to and how long the residual magic would last. This left the poor girl scratching her head not knowing what to do.
However it was the kwami who had the answer to that already however before she gave the answer marinette needed she was going to take this chance to tease the poor girl a bit. "let me guess you want me to stay to heal adrian but you also need use ladybugs powers. Am I right?" this cased marinette cheeks to flare red with embarrassment. Tikki let out a humorous chuckle at the expression on her face "so I was right.". The spirit was very amused by marinettes reaction as no matter how long they stayed together one thing that never changed was how easy it was too embarrassed her. Something that the little kwami learned secretly from watching her parents embarrassing the girl. Laughing slightly more as she tried to regain her composure "don't worry marinette I already have a plan to help you do both" the spirit stated.
Hearing tikki say that she had a plan to both go out as ladybug and keep healing link with magic. "Ah-uh-how?" she uttered out quite stupidly but she could not help it as to her knowledge tikki could not be in two places at once. Much less use her powers in two places at once. "Its simple really. All you have to do is make a luck charm and give it my power." the little kwami answered making the bluebells eyes go wide with astonishment.
MEOW-MEOW-MEOW-MEOW-MEOW-MEOW-MEOW-MEOW-MEOW-MEOW-MEOW-MEOW-MEOW-
Back at present time
As it turned out tikki had a number of power that she could do that she hand never even tried before. The one power in particular that tikki said they should use to give adrian good luck till they got back was the lucky charm ability. And while she did not understand everything. In essence it worked like this basically you take an object that the receiver wears on there person a necklace, a ring, a scarf. Anything that the receiver would were on them all the time as their charm require physical contact with the skin to work for some reason 'even tikki did not know why". Once the item was chosen all she had to do was take in both hand clasped and give it power like she does when using lucky charm. Accepted instead of creating an object she is instead making one more powerful.
Now as powerful as this ability was there was one catch that could not be avoided. The item given to the receiver had to be hand made by the giver. That meant that marinette could not just empower something and walk away she had to make something. There was also a second hurdle she had to deal with. Not only did it have to be handmade it had to as tikki put it be "made to wear with love and care". Obvious poetry aside it meant that it had to be made with the intent of the wear wearing all the time unless the wear decided to take it off on their own. When asked why did just said "marinette you're not strong enough to just make an object and empower it. When you make something you give a piece of yourself in the process giving it a piece of your power in the process. But that's not enough it has to be made with love and care. As you know already from dark cupid love is more powerful than the strongest of dark magics. The charm you make has to be made this way. Even though through constant use of your powers over the years has increased the amount of your magic power you still don't know how to use it"
In the end this left her with few options on what to due left. So last night and this morning she took the time to craft a fine necklace for adrian which he was hopefully still wearing. The only catch is she would have to re empower it almost daily if she needed to leave for some reason as like tikki said "you don't know how to use your powers properly only reason she did not learn basicly any of them outside of the basics and passive ones every ladybug gets was because she did not make time to learn them, which she was sorely starting to regret now. When she thought about it was a real opportunity lost. As had she and cat noir had taken the time to learn and explore the full depths of their powers. Rather than just winging it all the time. Who knows. They might have even been able to beat hawk- no gabrel agrest sooner and prevent so many people from having to suffer under his power. Though if nothing else she at least did not have to worry about tiring herself out due to how much magic she had built up. The one advantage to stockpiling magic unknowingly and not using any of it. It meant she had more of it later to play with.
"BUZZ!"
The sound of an electric lock releasing got her attention but before she could even move. "Well,well,well. This is quite the surprise." a monotone voice rang out behind her and immediately she knew who it was. "Gabriel agrest." she said turning around to face the man who had hurt paris, her city mercilessly. The vary person who had tried to take her kwami and miraculous away. The man who had nearly killed both her and cat noir. The man who spread fear like a cold wind across her home. The man her knowingly hurt his own son...the man formerly known as hawk moth was standing before her.
Setting this meeting up had been far easier than she thought as when she asked chief Raincomprix. Yes he got promoted again for his service and is now in charge of running the whole department. But when asked it took less then ten minutes for people to agree to this meeting. Apparently no could get anything out of the man and even using truth serum his lips wear locked. Infected when they brought in a professional military interrogator apparently he gave up after a few days as apparently gabriel would die before he let anything slip. So when she approached and asked they though he may let slip some information in the presence of his worst enemy. And though all parties herself included believed it was unlikely it was worth a try at least.
Gabrie on the other hand had not changed much in three years the aside from the bright orange suit and the chains he look mostly the same as he did before. The only real difference was his glasses looked newer and his hair was combed back as opposed to his usual hair style. Other than that though he looked basically the same. Including his smug look of superiority. One thing that she was positive that had not changed was his attitude, the bad kind. And that attitude showed in full when he spoke. "You know." the man started as the security guard led him to a chair next to a table. "When the warden said I had a guest that I would not to see I almost did not believe him. I am glad now I considered entertaining my guest not though...as who would have thought that the might ladybug herself would be her in person to speak with me." the aged man with an almost pleased tone as the guard forced him to sit before locking the chains to the floor with a loud click.
Hearing the click nearly made her finch starting realizing how serious the whole situation was now. Gabriel seemed to notice almost smugly "Oh don't worry about this." he said motioning as best he could being bound to the floor. "The warden insisted that I be bound in chains and a straight jacket every time I am let out of my cell. Then bound to the floor by another set of chains. I even wear handcuffs in my cell .Honestly I am slightly surprised that someone has not questioned the activating as cruel and unusual. But then again I don't think anyone really cares. In fact the only reason I'm not in a jacket is because they said my guest could handle themselves. Clearly he was right." It was painfully clear that gabriel was enjoying himself if that wear possible.
Once the guard was finished making sure gabriel could not go anywhere looked at ladybug. She gave a nodded receiving one back before the guard left locking the door behind him. She knew that there was probably a full swat team ready incases he tried something. While it may seem over kill if it wear true she even admitted to the court that she was unsure of the full depth of his powers even without the broch. And when the judge asked why that was she confessed that it had been century's since a person had welded the butterfly brooch and a lot of the information about it had been lost. Poor norro even said that she was unsure what she could do her memory being a bit fickle from being corrupted after being asleep for so long.
Ladybug steeled herself shedding the nervus skin and putting a steeled expression on her face. Grunting ertible to make herself sound tough she spoke "I see you haven't changed much. You still act like you're better than everyone." she said an air of confidence about her. Gabriel just smirked amused "I'll admit that over confidence was one of my mistakes that lead to my capture. Though I do have a superior mind to most." he stated boldly obviously still thinking himself better making ladybug grown. "Though that said." gabriel started making her look at him lery "you seemed to have changed quite greatly since last I seen you. Ornamental chinese dress combined with french night wear I take it. An odd mix but it seems to work." he commented offhandedly.
While most would likely brush off his comment as a passing remark to throw her off her game, he was absolutely right she had changed greatly. Over the years of being ladybug her outfit changed with her. And not just in size or shape to accommodate her growing frame but a complete makeover. Her new appearance was quite different gone was the old suite and in with something far more elegant. Her new outfit was somewhat of a cross between a french cavalry armor and a traditional chinese style dress. Which was fitting.
The top was like a single pull over dress that went to above her knees with a slit going from her upper thigh to her the end, and a tight fidgeting neck like her old one. It had the traditional ladybug spots on the front but had a black back starting at her neck and shoulder going to the small on her back. As well as what looked like an armored breastplate in front. The new suit had no sleeves but rather what looked like long gloves to replace them with two armored parts on her wrist and elbow. On the shoulders themselves wear protective dome shaped pauldron similar to what joan of arc had on hers to coent the gloves to the main suit. Around her waist was a red ribbon style belt which if it wear a real dress would be use to keep her cloths tight around her waist. But it was magic so it was mostly there for appearances. As for her bottom part from the feet up to the knees wear solid black with what looked like streamlined armored segments on top with two pieces of armour on the left and right parts of her thighs. And as her footwear unlike most comic book heroines who wore high heels Marinette was not most people as she had viewed high heels like carrying a large metal pole in a lightning storm. Instead she had more simple chinese style slippers combined french armoured caps like on cavalry to finish off the dress itself.
Lastly wear the accessories that she had added to her look over the years. Not of course she still had her earrings and that was unlikely to change but these wear much different. the first that had changed was the addition of a chinese/french style tiara on her forehead. The second being the addition of another yo-yo. The third and the one people noticed the first was what looked to be a large red and black spotted billowy scarf tied around her neck that went down to her knees.
When she began to notice those changes and questioned tikki about it tikki said that it was not very surprising as the outfit changes with the wearer wants, likes, personality, and what they view as heroic. In short her first out fit was a skin tight onesie because that what she perceived to be a hero. When marinette was young she was never into the super hero stores and heroes in general. So when she first became ladybug and the idea of being a hero her mind went to the hero's she did sorta know from the movies. Now she was more or less doing her own thing as far as looks went as she was going with more traditional chinese inspired clothing in line with her mother's side. With some flares from french history as well taking some inspiration from joan of arc the one hero she did admire even before finding out she was a fellow ladybug.
"Truly much more appealing to the eyes then your old uniform." the incarcerated man said "though I will admit the color is too striking to the point of being painful and the scarf is too long." he finished unable to not criticize her in some fashion. Ladybugs frown then dropped even further 'just wait till he sees what I can do with these scarfs and will see if there too long.' she thought venomously. However even with as much as she hated this man she had to keep her temper in check, and with as much as she wanted to use one of her yo-yo's to strangle him she had to remain calm. "Just because my outfit changed does not change why I am hear gabriel...or do you prefer hawkmoth instead?" ladybug questioned with her most commanding voice. The voice that she had been practicing for moments just like this.
Gabriel on the other hand seemed to be ineffective as he spoke in his usual monotone voice. "You can call me hawkmoth if you insist, but I prefer my actual name. I only ever used that ridiculous code name out of necessity. If not for the fact that I needed to keep a secret identity to prevent a situation like this I would have forgone the childish name all together." he finished talking answering the question in over analytical fashion. While she was greatly annoyed by the way he talked down to like she was a small child. What he said did make scene as if you did not have to worry about secret identity's why would you pretend to be someone else in the first place. Be sides gabriel did not seem the type to enjoy theatrics much less flashy names and looks. If he could have gotten away with going as just gabriel he probably would have.
"However" the man starting gaining her attention "i sure we both know you did not come all this way just to ask me about my name. So if you please I would like you to get on with it." the waite haired man demanded sounding polite. She knew very well that he did not mean to be polite it was simple a facade he had out of habit. That aside however she new he was right as she had an important question to ask. Gabriel seemed to scenes this as well as he was the first to bring it up. "Now if you don't mind if we dispense with the pleasantries and got down to business." he stated plainly clearly starting to grow bored as the novelty of this visit was starting to wain.
Ladybug feeling a slight tremble within took a single deep breath to steady herself before approaching the table. Pulling the chair back she took a seat in front of gabriel, she could feel her fear insider herself as she looked at the man who had done so much evil. But she remained calm and did her best to ignore her fears not allowing her gaze to slip. She had let her fears of this man rule over her for too long it was time that it all ended. This was an ordinary person just like her who got ahold of a magic artifact, also just like her. The only difference was how they used these powers she used them for good he used his for evil. Other then that there was no difference between them as they both wear just people. So feeling her fears eb she took one more deep breath then said "I just have one question.". She paused after saying this and almost immediately gabriel raised an eyebrow clearly expecting something else. "Go on." he encouraged his curiosity peaked at the one person he could never out match. Ladybug seeing this chance and feeling tikki's encouragement in the back of her mind just answered by asking "was it worth it?"
This question hung in the air like dense fog as both occupants of the room wear quieted. Gabriel seemed to have been taken off guard confirming ladybugs hunch a minute ago. This was further confirmed when the man before her spoke. "Well now, out of all the thing you could ask me this was by far one that I did not expect." he admitted seeming to be genuinely surprised by this question. "Was it worth it? Now that is a good question." he mused making ladybug start to lose patience with him. "Him?" he hummed loudly as if genuinely in thought and while it was hard to tell he seemed on the surface to actual consider this question. "Was it worth it" he started again casing ladybug to suppress a groan "i would say given the circumstances my arrest aside I would say that it was very much worth it. My only complaint is that I did not finish my goals." the white haired man stated plainly as reading the morning paper.
While it did not show on her face one thing she had improved she was greatly surprised by his answer. While internally she was greatly shocked as, ok she half expected him being the narcissist he is to think all his actions to be righteous and worth it. But what she did not expect was for him to only complain about being caught. It meant he had no remorse over his action. "So you don't care that hundreds or even thousands of people suffered on account of your actions?" she asked her bitterness and anger rising with inher. The waite haired man just scoffed un concerned. "Please the city would never have had to suffer in the first place if that old fool had just given me the miraculous when i found him the first time I would not have had to resort to such extreme measures. But alas that man had to go into hiding forcing my hand to drag him out. And then you extend the city's suffering. It all would have been quite painless if you had just given hem to me so I could achieve me end and moved on" he stated coldly.
Ladybug just could not believe him not only did he not feel remorse or concern for his actions he was blaming others for his own evil by not giving into him. "You're despicable" she said venomously truly despising this man now the reason of her fear for him being forgotten. However gabriel did not even seem phased or insulted just irritated. "Please. I am far from despicable If I had just gotten the miraculous no one would have had to have gotten hurt and I would have achieved my goals with ease...but no I was forced to drag things out of necessity for your ignorance. But had I succeeded the people suffering would not have been in vain for their troubles would have lead to greatness. As once I had the miraculous I would had done what I had set out to do years ago and no one would have ever had to hear the name hawkmoth again."
The man gabriel finally finished his mini rant and even no she could feel the anger bubble up inside of her. While normally even before she became ladybug she frowned upon such senseless things. This time she had to make an exception, as not only was he blaming others for his actions but he was also trying to justify his actions by making a murder of her own people by making sound like he was going to save humanity or something. And in reality it was all for his selfish goals. However that brought up another topic that needed addressing, "so what exactly was your goal?" she asked unable to bite back the anger in her voice. Gabriel only looked smug not irritated or pretending he seemed genuinely amused by the fact that only he knew something that everyone else wanted to know. "Wouldn't you like to know miss ladybug. But alas that is something you are going to have to figure out for yourself." he admitted humorously to ladybug making her grown in irritation. "But." he started getting ladybugs attention "i will give you a hint seeing as you have given me an ample distraction today. "And your hint is that had I gotten yours and cat noirs miraculous it would have given me the ability to to change everything." gabriel gained a dangerous glint in his eyes when he spoke that made ladybug internally shiver. And to add to that fact was the dangerous look he gave her as he eyed the miraculous in her ears greedily. This left a very dangerous and tense gape of silence between the pair of hero and villain.
As quickly as gabriel's change in demeanor took place it returned to normal and he returned to his usual high and mighty stance. "That being said." he started up again after their stand off "how has your partner been I don't hear about him much anymore from the criminals her.". Ladybug had to suppress a scoff as he said criminal not counting himself among them, but ignored that "none of your business." he said dodly trying to once again sound fearless. But she did have to agree wear was cat any way it had been well over a year. She knew he was regardless of his good points a bit of a thrill seeker so it was not too much of a stretch that he was simply wondering around looking for trouble or a thrill. But it did make her wonder as even alya had heard nothing of him in quite a spell as she posted nothing about cat on the lady blog. "Well, well now someone is testy. Are those rumors about you and cat noir true." he stated passively amused inciting a growl from ladybug. Keeping herself in control was hard at time like this but necessary. As for cat noir she brushed off her worry figuring that he was fine as un like adrian he had the miraculous and could defend himself. 'After all these magic suit are conveniently bullet proof, not that I'm eager to test how bullet proof they are' she thought to herself.
However speaking of one blond parisian youth it reminded her of another blond that had occupied her bed acquired recently. And thinking about it, it brought one more question to her mind which made her ponder for answer. "Just out of curiosity what about your son? What do you think he thinks about all this?". And there it was the one question that out of all other brought forth the greatest reaction from the cold hearted man. His eyes went wide only for a second but long enough for ladybug to see it. A momentary lapse in his demeanor that showed that he still had a lingering soft spot before falling to darkness.
The breach in his character faded almost as soon as it started and the familiar and unwanted business side returned. "And how is my son exactly? In good condition I hope" he asked monotone as ever. Also the way he said condition made her blood boil as it sounded more like he was evaluating a piece of fabric not checking on the health of his son.
So taking a deep breath to keep her temper in check her out on her best cold shoulder she could muster. "Your son is fine if only just." as she spoke she watched him and while there were no outward signs she could tell he was interested. "Your son is currently with an associate of mine under my protection for his own safety." she said as she continued to watch and she could tell his attention was peaked. "Unfortunately people were not as understanding as I am when it came to your son in regards to your relation to him." she finish stating. While some might think it wise to keep as much information to themselves in interrogation. But given how even a prisoner like him is allowed a few amenits all it would take is a quick internet search. And even if he was not allowed to use the internet he could still get the information it would just take longer using either the mail which she knew he was allowed from what the warden said. Or he could just have a fellow prisoner get the info for him for a price.
Waiting for response and watching carefully as he weighed the information in his mind, regarding it to determine its value. After about a minute she watched as his lips moved in preparation to speak. "That is most unfortunate though I can not say I am surprised. Though you can not expect to make clothing without there being some scraps left over. Though I must thank you for watching him for me it was vary convenient to have you manege him as he can be difficult to detain." he stated plainly. Marinette on hearing this had to force herself calm lest she turn bright red. She could not believe the man as he was regarding his son...his own son as if he wear just a business commodity and not an actual person merely something he owned. It was frankly disgusting not only did he use his son as basicly free help in his company but even now he still thought he owned his son like he was a show pet.
This was the straw that almost broke the camel's back and it showed when she stood up and spoke venomously. "I can promise you I did not do this for your benefit. I did it for him. In fact your own son would rather never see or hear your name again." she knew she was bluffing on that last part but it would not surprise her if adrian did never want to see him again after what he went through. After all he was not only hawkmoth but also the same man who turned the city against him.
Hawk- or gabriel however did not seem discouraged he honestly seemed more disappointed if anything. "A shame." he started plainly then let out a sigh "seems I can not take this as too much of a surprise. But he will forgive once he knows what I have worked on." it was marinettes turn to be surprised now her eyes widening slightly before morphing into a deep scowl. Even now the man before believed that adrian was just a mindless commodity that was his property. Property that would return to him and when he learned what ever his true motives wear. Unfortunately judging from adrian's condition assuming he can walk again it would be a miracle if he ever forgives.
Ladybug could not help but stare at the man who committed so much evil thinking he was a hero. While she knew that there were people who viewed themselves that way the fact was seeing one was something else entirely. And seeing it made her grateful for having parents as kind and good natured as hers. While pitying adrian who had one who simply used him like an object and did not care for the boy just the body. It was unbelievable what some parents would do to there kids just for money or to take over paris in gabriel's case. While it was true that some parents would use there children like warriors or even worse It was just a hard pill to swallow when seeing it. In the end she was let with few answers and more questions as the man simply sat there looking smugly at at her as if waving a proverbial bone in her face.
MEOW-MEOW-MEOW-MEOW-MEOW-MEOW-MEOW-MEOW-MEOW-MEOW-
After their final exchange gabrial refused to say any more and was returned to his cell. Once she was alone the warden came to thank her as she got more out of him in fifteen minute then they could in fifteen months. But even then there was an obvious flaw in her mind as they still had no idea what he planned on doing with the miraculous now that he was in prison. Nor could they tell what he may do even while locked up. All she could do was take comfort in knowing that he was on camera 24 hours a day in cuffs all day and was only allowed mail to entertain himself. But in the end there was not much she could do about it as she walked back home as marinette she pondered what had just happened a mere an hour before.
Tikki was in her usual spot in her bag at her side peeking out through the opening being careful not to be noticed and have another accident like last time. That however was beside the point as the kwami looked up towards her partner in wonder. Marinette had not spoken since they left the prison and changed back to civilian form. Infacted the young woman did not even speak after having leff. No instead she relegated herself to silence merely staring ahead only looking elsewhere to check her path for dangers. This however in tikkis mind was cause for concern as she could not remember a time she had been this quiet for so long before. The somewhat vacant and ghostly look on her face did not help with these worries though.
People around them however did not seem to notice though this though either because they were not paying attention or because she had her hood up on her coat. Despite how sunny it was there was a bone chilling cold in the air that signaled the coming of winter was fast approaching. This prompted everyone to bundle up more than usual with jackets scarfs and gloves among other things. Tikki However was unaffected by the cold so long as she had energy to spare which left more energy to worry for her partner.
As tikki watched she could see the street had emptied out leaving her and marinette alone a good opportunity to talk with the bluenette. "Marinette I…" but was interrupted before she could finished. "Tikki please not now." marinette said not even looking at the kwami this greatly surprised the spirit as she had no way of knowing that she was very much aware of her surroundings. Marinette then pushed in place for a minute before looking down at tikki with a weairy smile "it was just a lot to take it. And i need some time to think it over." the girl confessed. Tikki looked at marinette for a few moments wide eyed but then relented "I understand."
tikki was truthful when she said it over the last thousand years she had seen and heard much and knew that situations like this are never easy to say the least. And marinette being a relatively inexperienced ladybug in a world which save for one or two areas of if was living in a era of peace. Well things like this wear bound to happen. While there wear always going to be bad people in the world this world had fewer of them in positions of power that could cause many to suffer as most just wanted money. So unlike most of her old ladybugs marinette was living in a land of peace and happiness and was not made to suffer like the others had.
So with that in mind she putt on a brave smile gazing up at her partner "I'll be here if you ever need anything." she stated. Marinette smiled back at her little partner. The kwami over the years had been good to her giving support and encouragement wear ever possible and even now when she was asking for some time to herself she still continually gave support to her. Reaching a gloved hand down to touch the little spirit rubbing her head gently "thanks tikki." she said kindly.
They stood there another minute when the girl thought of something thanks to her conversation with gabriel "hay tikki?" she said gaining the pleased spirits attention. "Ya?" she responded back to marinette wondering what she was thinking as she could see her mind work. "I was wondering. Later would you want to see someone who could probably use a friend?" the girl asked. Tikki just sat there looking up at the girl a moment in wonder as if trying to think about what she was up too. Then a bright smile appeared on her face "that sounds wonderful marinette." tikki responded happy that despite what happened she still thought of the good of others. Having said this after their moment of understanding the girl and her spirit went back on there way towards home. However as they made their way back they wear both unaware of the storm that was brewing in the shadows.

Ok that's a wrap on this chapter lot longer then i thought it would be. and sorry again that it took so long elda-za among other things got in my way. Or I got in my own way. Either way there will be one more chapter before we get back to adrian as I have one more thing to do before that. the plot of the story will start to show through a bit more in the next chapter which will show more of what's to come my only question is can you guess what i am going to do? Also we will see another old character return in the story next chapter round. Which one will it be well you will have to wait and see, I will say that said person will play a title roll in the story and will be a major player coming up.
Alright that's was short but there's not much more I think needs to be said. Season two is coming soon so "whoo hoo!" other than that though there is not much else. So with that done again please if you like my work leave a fav or a follow. And please leave a review I love reading about what you think of my story it help me get ideas for future chapters so please leave one. Other then that I Hope you enjoyed and Have a great day.
