~THREE DAYS EARLIER~

They were sitting in the living room when they heard the news. His tea slipped from his hands and spilled as they watched the news with weary eyes.

It was of two very familiar faces being put on a stretcher and into a med truck.

Two faces that he should know.

Two faces that belong to the people he chose.

Chosen to wield the Black Cat and Ladybug Miraculous and to protect Paris.

The green kwami perched on the shoulder of the guardian grew nervous by the second.

"Master what will we do now? The hero's are in no shape to fight and another akuma has been sent out."

"I don't know." He said softly.

"What about the others?" Wayzz pried.

"We will see, but they're in a traumatic state right now. They can't fight either."

All he got was a sigh.

"It doesn't matter, does it. Without the Ladybug miraculous to purify the akuma, the situation will only get worse."

"That's why we need to lay low to think about what we will do and hope that too much damage does not get done."

Wayzz wouldn't have any of this.

"But Master! The Miraculous Ladybug cure cannot bring back the dead! It's too risky!"

"Wayzz! My decision is final!"

He resigned.

"I hope you know what your doing."

The guardian whispered to himself, too low for anyone else to hear.

"I hope so too."


24 hours passed.

In those long hours, 5 buildings burned. 25 people got injured, and one person died.

It was during those dark hours that Master Fu made up his decision, to get a temporary Ladybug and Chat Noir. But that required going to them, which was the hard part. If someone saw them, he could be reported and found out.

It was when Wayzz was rewatching yesterday's news report did he notice something strange.

"Our situation just got 100 times worse." he stated gravely.

"How?" Asked Fu.

"Their miraculous weren't on them when they were sent to the hospital."

"What do you mean?"

"I meant that look…" He stopped on Marinette's picture. "...She doesn't have her earrings on and Ladybug was reported to have been in that building."

"Your right. It must have been knocked off during one of the explosions, the same is for Chat Noir."

"So that means it's still in the school! We need to retrieve the Miraculous immediately before someone else does."

"Your right, we need to leave at once."

He locked the door, put up the 'closed' sign and left.


When they got to the sight, they immediatly ducked behind the crime scene tape and began to search.

"They were found around here, so let's split up. It will be faster."

"Be careful Wayzz."

"Of course Master."

They began searching for 30 min before Master Fu found an earring. Unfortunately, before he could call for Wayzz, he was caught.

"Excuse me sir, you do realise your in a crime scene?" A police officer shouted from a short distance as he gradually got closer.

Master Fu hid the earring and decided to play as an old man to get out. He acted more fraile, vulnerable, and put on a questioning gaze.

"Oh, really?"

The police officers face softened as he gently pulled him out of the area.

"If I may ask, what were you doing here?"

"I…" Think Fu Think. "...I saw one of my grandchildren on the news and rushed to see them. I must have not seen the tape in all the rush."

The officer's face melted completely into sympathy and pity.

"They were evacuated a couple hours ago, if you had seen them, then they have probably either gone back home or if they were injured. The hospital."

"Thank you, sir."

"Do you need any help getting back?"

"No thank you, I may look old but I can walk fine."

"If your sure?"

"Yes I am."

"Ok, well good day."

He tipped his hat and returned to work.

Fu began to walk away from the worker, and scanned for Wayzz.

He slowed down when he spotted him.

And whispered quietly so no one else would hear.

"Wayzz."

He heard him and flew into his open pocket.

"What happened?"

"I was caught as soon as I found one of the earrings."

"Whew!"

That caused him to look down and notice that Wayzz had something hidden as well.

"What did you find?"

The kwami smirked.

"The other earring."

He sighed in relief until another revelation sparked.

"What about the ring?"

He looked down in sadness.

"Nothing... I can't even sense its aura."

"What a mystery...but we need to leave before anyone suspects us."

"What! What about the ring!"

"Right now is not the time, we will return when everything settles down."

"But-"

"We leave!"

"Ok"

I think all this pressure is getting to him. Wayzz thought.

When they got back, they cleaned the earring and healed Tikki.

Ending the day with one promise.

"We will return once more tomorrow."


~NEXT DAY~

With the earrings firmly in his pocket and Tikki with Wayzz hidden inside. He walked across town to the school.

He began picking up his pace after he had to duck and hide from Blazer and all his chaos.

But they had a plan to fix this.

to the school

2. Find Plagg

3. Head to the hospital

4. Put their miraculous on them

They had to scratch the previous plan because Tikki didn't want a new holder, even if it was temporary.

The miraculous would help in many ways. Including healing them faster, then they'd transform and save Paris. The End. His thoughts broke when someone bumped into him hard, knocked the guardian to the ground, and then ran off. He was yelling for that person to come back when the kwamis tugged at him and told him that they arrived.

After a quick check that there were no akumas or officers there, they split up once more and began searching. An hour passed and they didn't find it anywhere.

Just as they were going to give up and leave, Master Fu's foot kicked something and a small metal object skipped across the place.

"The ring!" They said in unison.

Tikki flew in excitement and slowed to a stop when she got a good look at the ring.

The air suddenly grew thicker, a form of tension building upon it. But the two onlookers didn't know why it happened.

Shouldn't Tiki be happy we found the ring?

Tears began to form at her eyes as she grabbed the miraculous in such loving care.

And both the guardian and the kwamis smiles disappeared as Tikki handed the ring back.

No, not again!

"Is there any way w-we can fix it?" Cried Tikki.

Master fu hummed a sad melody as he inspected the ring.

A sad and conflicted aura poured onto him as he traced with his finger along the big, long, jagged crack on the center of the ring.

"Master, what are we going to do."

Please say there's more time.

"We can still help him, but we need to be quick."

"This hasn't happened for a long time."

"This has happened before?" Tikki questioned.

"Yes, with the peacock miraculous." They replied.

"How-"

"That doesn't matter, I'm more worried about the effects its had on Adrien."

He just changed the subject, what doesn't he want us to know, what is he -Wait.

"What effects?" Asked both Kwami's.

"Miraculous when damaged can have have effects on the holder, whether it's positive or negative."

But Tikki still had a shred of hope.

"What if he wasn't wearing the Miraculous when it broke."

"On the news, the spot on his finger where the ring should be has a burned mark."

She deflated.

"Impossible!"

"Let's just pray whatever affects he has are reversible."


They went to the hospital in a taxi, quickly put the earrings on Marinette when the room was empty and left.

He didn't visit Adrien yet because he had limited time left to heal Plagg.

Paris needed Ladybug more right now…

But he didn't realize that Adrien wasn't in the hospital at all.


A/N: Wait! Then where is he? I feel like this was the most dense chapter I've written so far. Not as dense as Adrien, duh. But I've dropped hints on him. Can anyone guess the effects on Adrien so far? If so, comment or pm me.

On a side note, Thomas Astruc (The creator of Miraculous) said that the Miraculous aren't indestructible, it is just harder to destroy. It was a mistake in the script (Said in Queen Wasp, I think). Sorry to demolish the ideas of Chat Noir getting akumatized with his akuma in his ring. Then not being able to cataclysm it to free the akuma. And poof, they can't destroy it.
