Chapter 10:
A/N: okay so heads up! Um I originally had the beginning for this episode, which is the Mr. Pigeon episode but I have storage problems on my phone, and the messages were deleted. Forgive me Shiro ;^; ahahaha. Enjoy!
Marinette yawned as she entered the school with Alya. Sometimes the Ladybug business drained her and Tikki. She didn't mind doing it, okay well maybe if it wasn't for being exhausted a lot, but it paid off. She actually could get through the obstacle courses without breaking everything!
"You okay girl?" Alya asked
"Designing" Marinette stated blunty as Alya shook her head "what? You know me by now Alya if I don't do something-"
"It won't come out, I know Mari" Alya said and smiled at her. "Still get a vacation, ask Adrien out, spend some free time"
Marinette shook her finger "n-no way? He's too perfect! And out of my league" she sighed as Alya shook her head and groaned.
Their conversation kept at it like that until they took their seats in class, Marinette flopped down in hers as Adrien and Leo walked in together. The models shining as brightly as ever,
Marinette pouted as they got closer "damn models for being so pretty and bright" she grumbled and Adrien and Leo paused.
They stood at her desk as Leo signed 'what was that?'
Marinette's face grew red "I said that out loud didn't I?" They both nodded and she sighed, sometimes she wasn't so lucky.
Once the final bell range Mme. Bustier and *Mr. Damcoles entered the class. He cleared his throat as Mme. Bustier calmed the class down.
"Thank you Mme, now I have come to inform you that your class was chosen to participate in a design contest held and judged by Gabriel Agreste." The class grew excited "your design will be a durby hat and will be due today in the afternoon so get working!"
He departed as the class began chatting amongst themselves. Mme. Bustier giggled to herself as she began the class.
After class
"A durby hat. Of all things a durby hat!" Marinette said as she walked with Alya "I have top hats, slim hats , bell hats, even a sombrero!"
"Chill girl" Alya said as they sat down on a bench that was in the schools courtyard "there's gotta be something in there"
"Whoa cool drawings! They're yours?" Adrien leaned over Alya as Marinette fumbled and fell to the floor.
"Uh nope! These are yours truly!" Alya motioned to Marinette who simply hid behind the bench and waved.
"They're amazing Marinette!" He awed
"Uh what? No? They're not amazing! You're amazing, I mean you're more than amazing! But" Alya kept moving her hand over her neck to silence her as Adrien raises an eyebrow
"Uh thanks? But with these I'm sure you'll win!" He waved and left to go back to Leo, who was in the same scenario as Marinette with Kim.
Alya shook her head "really girl? Even after you seemed cool with him"
Marinette groaned "anyway I'll catch up with you later, I have am idea!" Leo glanced over at her as he watched her run face first into a wall and flinched. 'Never mind on her being Ladybug then'.
Marinette now sat on some steps in front of the Eiffel Tower as she looked up and saw Mr. Ramier come sit down on the bench. She drew a few ideas but crumbled them all in frustration.
"Ah! None of these work Tikki!" She groaned
"Calm down Marinette, if you can fight Akuma them this should be a piece of cake!" Tikki said and Marinette hummed
"Hmm a cake hat...tasty and stylish!" The two looked as Marinette glanced at the pigeons. 'Hmm...feathers' she thought as she drew out a rough sketch of the durby hat, unknown to her that Sabrina took a picture of the hat and came back to Chloe.
"Got it Chloe" she smiled "we're the best!"
"We?" Chloe glared
"Um you're the best!" Sabrina laughed "so when are you making it?"
"I'm not, you are" Chloe walked away as Sabrina nodded slowly.
Marinette was now back home and just finished her hat, "perfect! Now I just need one last thing" she tapped her temple "a feather! I forgot to get one from the pigeons!"
She grabbed Tikki and the two headed towards the buses back to the tower. Marinette hopped onto a bus and half way there they stopped. She tapped her foot ams frowned
"What's going on?" She tried to look out
"Forgive me passengers but there seems to have been a traffic jam and this is as far as I can get you" the driver announced and Marinette ran off the bus and towards the front to see the damage.
"Marinette the feather!" Tikki warned and she nodded before heading the rest of the way to the steps and getting a feather.
"Hold it Tikki" she said and a shadow loomed over her as she looked up to see an army of pigeons.
"Oh no" she whispered before hiding and opening her purse "Tikki, Spots On!"
Now as Ladybug she jumped up to the roofs and followed the pigeons, when she landed on one roof she found Chat with Winter Owl next to him.
"Oh come by often My Lady-achoo!" He sneezed and rolled off the small roof and in front of Ladybug.
"Sorry I'm allergic to feathers" he said and Winter slid down
'Now what?' He signed and Ladybug motioned her head
"You know how to stop My Lady?" Chat asked
"Not how, yet, but I do know how he'll find us!" She grinned
Chat was unimpressed as he stood there at the park with a Ranger hat on as he whistled and tapped his foot. He cockes his head left and right before he started to dance.
"Chat! Please! If you do that they won't believe it" Ladybug warned behind the tree as she and Winter hid.
Winter signed 'how is this going to work Buggy Bug?'
'Great they both have nicknames for me' Ladybug thought "no matter what park, only the Park Rangers were missing" she explained.
It took a few minutes before the birds came in and swooped Chat away.
Ladybug and Winter were quick to follow Chat. He sneezed and swatted them all away as he fell onto a roof with Winter and Ladybug.
"Coo Coo!" They heard and saw the man rise up on pigeons. "I am Monsieur Pigeon and the with my help the pigeons shall rule Paris!"
Ladybug rolled her eyes with Winter and Chat.
"Let's see how you like it" he snapped his fingers and the three were caged with the pigeons prepared to launch an all out poop attack.
"Chat" Ladybug warned and said hero nodded and used his Cataclysm to set themselves free.
Winter was quick to knock down the bars as the other two got out and swung their weapons, glaring.
The pigeon man cooed again and jumped off the building as Ladybug ran over to him, "on no!" She gasped.
"Now what?" Chat asked
"I'm sorry Chat but we have to follow using that nose of yours" she said as Chat covered his nose
'Kitty please' Winter begged and held a firm stare. Now both of them were staring at him.
He groaned and ran off towards the pigeons "let's go!"
The two high five and ran after Chat, who didn't sneeze. A few more jumps and Chat sneezed. He groaned and shook his head, things I do for Paris and keeping it safe! He thought as he used his baton to jumped from roof to roof.
Ladybug and Winter followed close behind as Ladybug pulled on Chat's tail and Winter's cape.
"Ow! My- achoo- what is it? Achoo!" Chat sneezed and groaned.
"Found him" she said and pointed at the hoards of birds that surrounded a building
Winter put his arm in front of Ladybug before he sucked in a breathe and shakingly said "trap"
Ladybug froze as she looked at him "oh Winter!" She exclaimed and hugged him tightly, said boy hugged her back as he thought 'same hug and touch as Marinette too maybe I was wrong?'
Chat pushed his arm in between their faces with a deadpanned look on his face.
"Yes, yes happy moments but let's hurry" Chat looked at his ring and saw two more dots "you two go on ahead! I need to recharge!"
"Wait Chat!" Ladybug said but he was already off on his own making sure to jump behind a roof.
Adrien now stood in Chat's place as Plagg came out tired, Adrien pulled some cheese.
"Hurry Plagg we need to hurry and help them"
Plagg nodded and ate the cheese "someone seems jealous, now you know my pain with Winter and Tikki" he sighed
"Even if its Leo, its just" Adrien groaned "I mean he's not bad looking but still he seems to have My Lady all wrapped around his finger"
"Cool it kid you'll attract an Akuma like that" Plagg warned Adrien as his head snapped up
"Is that possible? Two Akuma's at once?" He asked
"If the Hawkmoth is strong enough, this isn't the first Nooroo's fall in into the wrong hands" Plagg explained
"Nooroo?" Adrien stood up
"Hawkmoth's Kwami, he's like us only it seems wanted to more often because of his ability" Plagg explained again with a frown.
"Plagg, Claws Out!" He exclaimed and jumped towards the building Winter and Ladybug headed to. He launched himself onto the roof and peered in, seeing Ladybug and Winter fighting off the pigeons.
Maybe I can sneak in and save them! Surely then Ladybug will notice how cool I am, Chat thought with a grin and opened the hatch but the pigeon smell caught him off guard as he sneezed and fell into the middle of the fight.
"Chat!" Ladybug yelled happy to see her partner "you're back!"
"Was never out of commission" he grinned and she rolled her eyes at his joke
"Great now the whole parties here!" Mr. Pigeon clapped his hands and blewn into his whsitle again
"Its his whistle Chat!" Ladybug said as she fought off the pigeons and groaned. Chat went after him and with Winter's help he launches himself towards the man while Ladybug called for Lucky Charm. A coin. Ladybug threw the coin into the vending machine and out came popcorn.
"Winter!" Ladybug threw the popcorn at him as he cut the bag open with his claws, spreading it everywhere and on Mr. Pigeon.
Through the flurry of pigeons Chat sneezed and threw the whistle at Ladybug, who caught it and slammed it on the ground. The Akuma came out as Ladybug swung her yo yo and caught it.
"Gotcha! Time to de-evilize!" She purified the Akuma and let it go "bye bye little butterfly" she said as it flapped its wings away happily
"Miraculous Ladybug!" She said and threw the coin into the air. The Park Ranger returned to their stations and Xavier came back to conscious as he looked around confused
"Pound it!" Ladybug said as she fist bumped the boys. Her earrings gave her the five minute warning as she waved goodbye and left the area.
"Later boys!" Chat and Winter waved and smiled. Chat put his arm around Winter's shoulder and Winter did the same as the walked out.
"Let's go home buddy" Chat said
"Home?" Winter asked softly and Chat nodded
"Closed school because of the Akuma attack" he explained and the two laughed and happily went home for the day.
Next Day
It was now the day of the contest and Marinette was very nervous and quite late. She grabbed the durby hat and her things and ran out of her home, kissing her mother and father goodbye, and headed to school. Alya looked around for her best friend as she tapped her foot.
"Where is this girl?" She asked herself and outside she saw Marinette running inside
"Perfect attendance as ever" Alya teased and Marinette set her hat down "whoa so cool! And so like Chloe's"
"What?!" Marinette turned to see Chloe's hat, identical to hers. "Oh that brat!"
"Want me to go?" Alya proposed as Marinette shook her head
"I got this Alya" Marinette frowned as Gabriel came around in a tablet held by Nathalie with Leo and Adrien behind her.
Leo grinned and gave her a thumbs up as Gabriel turned to hers
"Turn me back to Ms. Bourgeois" Nathalie did and turned him again
"Is this a joke?" He asked and the boys frowned
"See? She stole my design!" Chloe accused and Marinette put her hand on her chest
"Its my design allow my to prove it! See back here is my signature!" Marinette said and Chloe was caught red handed as she ran out crying.
"Good job Marinette" Gabriel smirked and dismisses himself as Marinette handed her hat to Adrien as she blushed when their hands touched.
Adrien's nose twitches as he sneezed "sorry I'm allergic to feather" he walked away with the hat in a sneezing fit as Alya and Marinette cheered.
