"Here" I held out the black and red box to her.

"Uh, Marinette, I don't know if now is the best time to be giving presents, not that I don't appreciate it but-"

"Just take it Alya!"

She took the box out of my hand and opened it

"Wow, it's really-" she stopped suddenly when a small fox like creature appeared out of nowhere making Alya scream and drop the box on the ground.

I bent over an picked up the box and handed it to Alya.

"What is that thing?" Alya asked, horrified

The fox kwami puffed up her chest and zipped around Alya

"That's hardly the way to talk to a magical super power giving creature." The fox kwami said in defense and then found herself sitting leisurely on Alya's shoulder.

"Magic what?" she turned to me, "What is she talking about?"

I opened my jacket and turned to Tikki, "You're probably better at explaining this than I am."

Tikki floated up and turned to Alya.

"I am Marinette's Kwami, I give her the ability to turn into Ladybug, this is Trixx, she is your kwami."

Trixx sat up and smiled at Tikki, "Hey, Tikki, it's been what, a few hundred years? How have you been?"

Tikki sniffed and ignored her and folded her arms.

"Listen Alya, I know thisis weird but, I need help. It's gotten harder to protect Paris, you must have noticed. Ladybug and Cat Noir... they can't do it alone anymore, we need help, an I can't think of anyone else I'd rather have at my side than you."

she smiled and took the neecklace out of the box an fastened it aroound her neck,

"What do you need me to do?"

"Well let's take this one step at a time , all you need to do to start out is to transform."

"Well, how do I do that?" she asked.

"Watch and learn," I said with a smile. "Tikki, Transform me!"

Tikki flipped around, her essence being drawn into my earrings, I felt the magic tingle down my spine and the Ladybug costume formed down my skin.

When I was finally fully transformed, I turned to Alya, "There, see, nothing to it."

"Alright then, transform me Trixx!"

Just like that the kwami jumped to her necklace. I watched in awe, I'd been through a transformation but I'd never actually seen one before, it was pretty cool.

Her face was covered by a magical aura which went away revealing a mask andit spread down her body covering her in a suit. The transformation finally finished, leaving her there with a look of bewilderment and holding a flute.

She finally blinked herself out of her initial stage of shock and she looked down at herself.

"This is... SO COOL! I'm now officially a super hero, like you, kicking bad guys buts and saving people!"

I laughed as she squealed, one thing I was always right about, Alya would make a much better super hero than me.

"I'm not too thrilled about the tail though." she said holding the fluffy thing in her hands. Her hair fell over her shoulder and she absent mindedly pushed it away before grabbing it and eyeing it weirdly.

"Is my hair white?" she asked in a incredulous tone.

"No." I answered her, "It's only white on the tips, the rest is about your usual color."

She squealed happily again and spun around.

I smiled but turned back towards the entrance to the elevator shaft, we have work to do.

"I see that you've depraved me from a dashing rescue."

I turned quickly in shock to see Cat Noir on the building's edge behind me. He stepped closer and crossed the building until he was standing right in front of me, his eyes searching mine.

I stepped back a little, giving us distance, and when I did his eyes finally caught Alya's and he stepped in front of me, holding his baton threateningly.

"Volpina, I thought that we already took care of you."

I rolled my eyes and grabbed his tail, pulling him back.

"easy kitty, you don;t know the full story."

I stepped in front of him and put a hand on Alya's shoulder.

"this is..." I died out, not knowing what to call her, I certainly couldn't call her Alya.

"Rena rouge, I'm a new acquaintance of Ladybugs' and a long time admirer of the both of you, I am ecstatic to meet you Cat Noir."

Alya held out her hand in a friendly manner but Cat Noir squinted his eyes suspiciously and then turned back to me.

"Master Fu told me you had been taken by Azure Wings, how did you escape."

"Rena helped me, I was captured with the reporter in a cage when she came in and got us out. We sent Alya home but we need to go back and face Azure Wings, she's just going to keep kidnapping people if we don't stop her."

"Alright," Cat Noir said moving to my other side, as far away from Alya as he could. "What's the plan?"
