Chapter 10
I'm aware Trixx's pronoun is a he, but since in the first fic I had used she and just when Sapotis aired and confirmed to be a he it was too late and to avoid confusion I kept it. Technically the kwamis are all genderless, so it doesn't play much of a role.
Also sorry for the late post, I had last Thursday a big exam from my course and I still had no idea how to finish this chapter.
I will now start another fanfic to when I get stuck here, I work on the other one and come back here again when I have any clue how to continue. (I actually have, I just don't know, how to put it in words somehow) I know, but if I try to write every day it shouldn't become often a problem.
In the morning Lila Rossi lied wrapped in her bedcover sleeping peacefully. On the bed beneath her feet lied the fox kwami Trixx also resting, then later she yawned and stretched her four legs like a canine, then looked up at her owner, who embraced her plush fox while she was asleep. Trixx smiled, then flew up at the girl landing on her shoulder to wake her up by pressing gently on her shoulder.
„Lila wake up, we have to meet Lady Red in front of Kevin's orphanage, " Trixx said quietly, then observed Lila stretch her arms releasing a yawn and she sat up on her bed looking at Trixx. „Did you sleep well?" The kwami questioned earning a nod from the girl.
„I'm sending her a message to be ready, then I head to the shower and dress myself up" The Italian girl told the fox kwami, afterward he pulled back the cover of her bed to get out, then walked to her desk near the entrance to her room and picked up her blanc smartphone, unlocking it and searching for Kagami's contact in the messenger application, then opened it and typed down a message and clicked on send.
„Done, now I just need to pick up my clothes and head to the shower," The fox miraculous owner said walking at her drawer, which stood in front of her bed to arrange herself clothes to wear.
Kagami sat in her bedroom reading a book on her bed with her kwami Tikki sitting on her shoulder watching her owner doing so. Next to her bed, she had a night table with a white paper lamp with a dragon vector on all four sides and next lied her smartphone, whose display turned on showing a message of someone while doing a short message tune. Kagami moved her head to look at the dark-colored smartphone to read the message, which had come from Lila, then she sent Lila back an emoji of a thumb up and got out of their chat box.
„We're going to meet her at ten at the orphanage, " Kagami said to Tikki, who nodded back to her owner.
„Great, " Tikki said watching Kagami look on her phone at her contacts, then entering into the contact of Adrien to check the last time he was online and it was at 23.17. „What are you going to do?" Questioned the red kwami, then Kagami pressed on the video camera to make a video call to the French boy.
„Asking, if he would like to accompany us to the orphanage, " Kagami said watching on her display her reflection of her face waiting for her boyfriend to attend the call.
Moments later on her screen appeared Adrien sitting inside the cover of his bed looking sleepy at Kagami.
„Morning….." Adrien said while yawning.
„You went a little late to bed, didn't you?" Asked the Japanese girl watching the boy shook his head.
„No…." Responded Adrien followed by another yawn. „Hope woke us up nearly every hour and I couldn't sleep well"
„But she's sleeping in another room?"
„Yeah but I also got a babyphone in my room to assist my parents, when they need it" Explained the blonde boy. „I was able to sleep two or three hours only
„So you can't come with us to the orphanage?"
„How long are you going to be there?" Adrien questioned the girlfriend
„Midday or around 1 PM" Replied the blue-haired girl. „You can still show up later if you like"
„If you two are okay with that" Adrien said yawning again, which made Kagami chuckle.
„I think I better hang off and let you rest."
„Thanks Kagami, " Adrien said lying back down on his back still watching Kagami on his smartphone. „See you later"
„Bye, I love you"
„I love you too, Kagami," Adrien said to Kagami, making her smile at her boyfriend, which then turned the phone off, afterward Kagami lied back on her back releasing a relieved sigh.
„Aww, " Tikki said flying up at Kagami's face watching her smile after the phone call with her boyfriend. „When are going to visit Adrien's family again?"
„Mother said this evening we were going to dinner with the Agreste's, cause Mr. Agreste had something to discuss with my mother"
„What could it be?" Questioned Tikki sitting down on the bed next to her.
„I don't know it, but it must be important….well to them"
„Do you think it's going to be something weird like an arranged marriage or something?"
„No and I hope it's not really because of that reason, they called us"
„But why wouldn't you like it?" Questioned Tikki. „You two love each other?"
„We're not ready for that step yet Tikki. We're still 17 and we're still finishing high school. I want to take it slow and so does Adrien."
„You still would love if you two would get married at some point of your lives?"
„Of course Tikki" Answered Kagami getting on her knees to put away the book she read before in the shelf over her bed. „But I want that the reason Adrien proposes me is, because of love, not because our parents want it" Kagami explained Tikki, who levitated next to Kagami's head looking at some different colored books. Kagami took out a white book, then opened it to look at the various images she had stuck in it, which were from different moments of Kagami's own life. Most of the moments are memories of happiness, the majority of these moments Kagami has witnessed them in Paris only since she had only started a year before she left Japan to immigrate to France.
„Here the day I started at the D'Argencourt fencing academy. Monsieur D'Argencourt had taken this image before the fencing class had started."
Tikki gazed at the picture, where she saw Kagami standing in front of Armand D'Argencourt along with Adrien, who had his hand placed on her shoulder while standing around them on the side building a line stood other fencing students looking neutrally at the photographer.
„When exactly did you and Adrien realize you liked each other?" The red kwami asked Kagami, that moved a page forwards to see a few used cinema tickets, Kagami had glued a while ago on her book.
„I think it was two weeks or three later when we had fencing lessons. Adrien was trying hard to defeat me and he had brought me down on the floor and lied on top of me looking at me, then….well I got lost in his eyes then my heartbeat had changed and after that incident, every time I was around Adrien I felt my heart racing"
„And now you two are together, " Tikki said earning a nod from her owner, then noted a yellow colored ticket, which was familiar to her. „Is that the ticket for that Pokémon movie?"
„Yeah" Responded Kagami. „Adrien and Nathaniel are such dorks, " Kagami said making Tikki giggle.
„It was cute how the two wore on that day a Pikachu-themed hoodie although it was like 25 degrees inside the room."
„Aww"
„I have to ask Lila to send me that picture, so I can stick it on my album"
„What about that musician you went last month?" The kwami questioned and the Japanese girl moved to the last pages on her book to show Tikki an image with an autograph of a blonde singer.
„I've got it here, " Kagami said to her kwami, which then flew across Kagami's room to the bag of the student, which hang over the door handle, then Tikki pulled out a big file folder, then carried it to Kagami.
„Check out the file for history" Ordered Tikki. „There is something you should check out"
„Okay?" Kagami said a little confused, then opened the file and run her fingers over the various pockets of the file and opened a brown-colored file to check out, what she had in there and it was an envelope with nothing written on it. Kagami took from her table a scissor and used the leg of it to rip the envelope up and took from there a picture of herself with Adrien together at the prom.
„Where did you get this?" Questioned Kagami looking at the image, where the two stood together in front of a colored canvas looking at the cameraman, who took the image. Kagami turned the image around to see a message written black on white, which Kagami could easily identify whose calligraphy it was.
„Since I and Vincent work together for my photoshoots, I could get from him a couple of pictures from the prom night. I thought you would love to frame it, or stick it or just keep it with you. I hope you enjoyed the prom night as I did, even though we had to leave earlier, because of my little sister having arrived. If you ever feel bad or sad about something like that night, where you told me about your father, you can always talk to me, no matter what time. I cherish you a lot. With Love, Adrien."
„Plagg told me when you went to the restrooms, he helped Adrien put it into your file" The red kwami answered. „He wanted you to be sure you could tell him everything"
„I know I can," Kagami said looking at the image she held with her hands. „And I'm thankful for that"
„Your mother also adores him, not only because he's as talented as you in fencing or rich. More, because he's a very dear friend to you and well-mannered."
„Yes, she really does like him," Kagami said, then she got a little sad, making Tikki look disappointed, believing she had hurt her.
„You're alright?" Tikki asked Kagami, who nodded at her kwami.
„I was just thinking about my father. He would have loved to meet Adrien." The Japanese girl explained the kwami of creation, then the creature gave Kagami a hug on her cheek.
„You're doing it good Kagami. It's better to talk with someone about it than having to deal with it alone"
„Thank you, Tikki, " The girl said grabbing the kwami carefully and holding her close on her face, feeling her tiny paws caressing her.
In front of a two-leveled building Miss Vixen stood together with Lady Red waiting for someone, they had asked to come with them.
„Where's Nathaniel?" Questioned Lady Red the fox-themed superheroine.
„He should be here any moment" Replied the brunette. „He was about to leave the house when I called him"
„Maybe he got stopped by something, " The ladybug-themed superheroine said, then heard the noise of a jet-like device and looked up along with Miss Vixen to see Super Nathan passing by the two carrying a young boy with black glasses and light brown hair, afterward he dropped the kid in front of the two heroines.
„Look what I found, " Super Nathan said introducing the girls the boy.
„Your face seems familiar, " Lady Red said observing the little boy.
„That's Chri…...the little brother of Nino, the best friend of Adrien Agreste" Responded Miss Vixen looking at the boy, who gazed up astonished at the superheroine.
„How did you know that?" Questioned the boy looking at the superheroine, that bend down her knees to be nearer to the boy.
„We happen to be very close with Adrien" Responded Miss Vixen. „Once your brother was present along with Adrien and they have mentioned you"
„Really?" Asked Chris widening his eyes in excitement, then Miss Vixen tapped the boy on the nose.
„Yeah and I didn't know, that you were this adorable" The heroine mentioned while ruffling the boy's hair making him blush. Lady Red smirked at her friend charming the little boy, while Super Nathan felt a little jealous about the situation.
„Uhm Miss Vixy, should we check, if anyone's here?" The purple-skinned superhero asked as Miss Vixen kept patting the boy on his head.
„Sure" Responded Miss Vixen. „I've gotta go, little man, Super Nathan gets a little jealous, when I pay precious little rascals like you attention"
„Uh….No I don't" Responded Super Nathan crossing his arms pretending to be innocent. Miss Vixen chuckled along with Chris as they noted on Super Nathan's body language, that he wasn't telling them the truth.
„Of course not, " Miss Vixen said rolling her eyes jokingly at Chris, then got up from the ground and walked to Super Nathan to ring on the doorbell.
„Where did you pick up the boy?" Questioned the heroine with Italian heritage her boyfriend.
„He nearly ran under a bus, as he was playing soccer with a few other kids" Responded the redhead. „I saw him running at the streets to get the ball, then he shrieked as the bus had pushed the brake and I had quickly reacted and took the boy away from there before he got hit"
„Great job Nathy, " Miss Vixen said looking flirty at the hero.
„Li…..I mean Miss Vixen…." Super Nathan said, then got closer to the ear of the superheroine. „You shouldn't be calling me like that when we're working as superheroes. People could discover, that it's us"
„Don't worry about it. Only Lady Red would understand it"
„Understand what?" A voice asked and the two looked behind them Lady Red standing behind them with her hands placed on her hips.
„About the nicknames I call him when he's a civilian" Miss Vixen explained her friend, then realized the little boy Chris was gone. „Where's Chris?"
„He went back to the park, before Nino or anyone else gets worried"
„Oh"
„And what's with the nicknames?" Questioned the blue-haired heroine looking at the two friends.
„I told Lila it wasn't a good idea to use the nicknames she calls me in private also when I'm working as a superhero" Replied the redhead.
„Well, it is a little hard, when we have to call us by our superhero names between each other in front of citizens" The vixen heroine admitted earning a nod from the other two.
The door of the orphanage opened back and a girl with short blonde hair stood there and he mouth dropped up wide as she realized, who the visitors were, that rang on the door.
„Good morning, is Madame Livre here?" Questioned Miss Vixen, making the girl yell loud.
„The superheroes are here in front of our house!" Shouted the girl making the superheroes cover their ears.
„Whoa, " Super Nathan said as the girl had started to yell, then she ran at Super Nathan to give him a hug.
„You're my favorite superhero. You're so brave and sentimentally" The girl said making the superhero blush.
„Uh thanks" Super Nathan said, making the two superheroines smile at the cuteness of the girl.
„Aww, " The two superheroines said, then looked up at the door a woman around the 40 appearing at the entrance along with a brunette girl hiding behind the woman.
„Oh good morning, how can I help you?" Questioned the woman looking at Super Nathan petting the girl on the head.
„Good morning Madame Eloise, we thought about passing by here and spend a couple of hours with the orphans, if you don't mind. We could talk with them, play, help them with their homework, anything" Offered Miss Vixen approaching together with Lady Red the owner of the orphanage.
„Really?" Questioned Eloise. „And you all don't mind it?"
„No, we discussed this yesterday as we had accompanied one of your orphans back home" Explained Super Nathan. „I think you should have a better eye on him, because of bad influences of certain other students"
„I know" Responded Eloise. „You know it's not always easy to be looking after 20 children from various ages"
„I believe that, " Miss Vixen said, then noted behind the woman the little girl hiding, then Miss Vixen went down on her knees to glance at the girl.
„Hey little girl, what's your name?"
„Erin" Replied the girl.
„That's a nice name" Miss Vixen complimented and held out her hand, making the girl tilt her head and observe the heroine smiling at the girl, waiting for her to come out. Eloise patted the young girl on the back, assuring Miss Vixen was nice, then the girl walked slowly at the superheroine and placed her hand on the dark-colored glove of Miss Vixen's tight suit, then glanced up at the girl, which smiled kindly at the young girl.
„Erin would you like to invite them in?" Questioned Eloise looking down at the petite girl, which looked back at Miss Vixen, who smiled at the girl then the young girl nodded to the owner of the orphanage.
„Come in, " Eloise said, then Super Nathan got pushed by his fangirl into the house, making Miss Vixen chuckle along with Lady Red and Eloise.
„Lisa is a big fan of him" Eloise explained. „She's got a wallpaper of him over her bed"
„Interesting" Lady Red said at the comment of the owner.
„I've got two other, that have also one of you, Lady Red" Eloise said, then Lady Red looked at the vixen heroine, which winked at the friend jokingly. „Oh walk first into the dining room, I'm going to make you two coffee, " The woman said waiting for the two heroines to enter.
„I'm fine thank you" Miss Vixen rejected friendly.
„I'm not very fond of coffee, maybe if you had any type of tea….."
„I've got plenty of favors, tea is my life!" Eloise said closing the door to head with the superheroes into another room.
