((This chapter is... *drum roll please* ...Lady Wifi!))
Okay, so I took a little break from writing before Bunhead, and I'm sorry about that, but school and volleyball kept adding up, and I couldn't find time to write. I'm on a little writing roll this weekend, though, so I'll get as much out as possible!
Read on, my dudes.
-Ballet by Night
-Alya Cesaire-
Alya took out her book and grabbed a picture of Ladybug, cutting out her face and held it up to all the girls in the class.
"I'm very please with how you all did this last assignment." Mme. Bustier says. "Some of you have really stepped up and I do appreciate it. Now it's time to move on to our next assignment."
Alya put the picture up to Chloe's face, but Chloe pointed at the teacher, who was looking right at her. She put down the picture sheepishly.
"Is Marinette still in the girl's room?" Mme. Bustier asks.
"I don't know, Madame." Alya answers quickly. The bell rings and Mme. Bustier hands out the homework. "Please see to it that Marinette receives her homework."
"Will do." Alya says, walking out of the classroom. Alya checks the girl's room, asks around, looks in her locker, but Marinette isn't anywhere. She calls, but Marinette doesn't pick up. Alya groans and walks to her locker. She notices Chloe standing at her locker as well, and watches her. Chloe puts away her (fake) ladybug yoyo into her bag.
"Chloe's Ladybug?" Alya asks herself. She calls Marinette. "Hey, Marinette, call me ASAP!"
Nino walks past her. Alya grabs his wrist.
"Nino!" Alya says.
"What's up, boo?" Nino asks, and Alya blushes a little, but stays on topic.
"Come with me." Alya says, pulling Nino over to a bench where they sit and watch the news cast on the latest akuma news. The camera shows Ladybug sheepishly smiling and waving her hand with her yoyo in it.
"I think I just found out who ladybug is!" Alya says excitedly. "Chloe!"
"Hahaha! Chloe? Seriously? She only thinks of herself, much less the world. You are cray-cray, lady!" Nino laughs.
"Whatever, Nino." Alya says, walking to Marinette's mansion to drop off her schoolbag.
-Marinette Cheng-
"Wow, fighting evil makes time fly by." Marinette commented, walking into the mansion.
"You're right." Tikki agreed. "But are you sure you're okay? You took a lot of hits today!"
"It wasn't that bad. It's better than Chat getting hit. If I had to, I'd take every one of his hits, just to help out. Besides, what he doesn't know is that cure doesn't work on me, so the less he knows, the better." Marinette says. "I only got one bad hit today though, and it's not that hard to hide. It's on my lower back, that's it."
"Whatever you say. We should go dress it though." Tikki hides in her purse as Carly comes up to Marinette.
"Alya dropped off your school bag and homework. You're too forgetful, don't make me bring this up with your mother. Because of this, I'm having your personal trainer and dietitian increase your training and health." Carly says. Marinette smiles and nods, walking up to her room.
"Ugh, for real? I thought I was eating healthy already?" Marinette says, looking at her new restrictions and menu. They're cutting more of her calorie intake.
"What's the issue?" Tikki asks, not paying attention.
"It says here that I'm getting too muscular and gained a pound, making me look bigger, a problem for modelling. They're cutting my calorie intake to 1,400 calories a day and upping my exercise in the gym another hour, plus now even more ballet rehearsals. Not to mention that I'm getting a better piano teacher, which means more sessions and harder music." Marinette complains.
"Wow, that's a lot, plus Ladybug? I'm so sorry, Marinette." Tikki says.
"It's not your fault, Tikki. Now, where's that gauze?" She asks, coming out of her bathroom with the gauze and some antiseptic wipes. Tikki helped her cover the wound and tape it up, and then Marinette took out her tablet to work on her homework. Alya had left a sticky note on it.
"Call me, I know who the real ladybug is?" Marinette read aloud. She gasped. Tikki did to.
"Do you think she knows?" Tikki asks.
"No way, Alya's always jumping to conclusions." Marinette brushed it off.
"But just in case..." Tikki says.
"Don't worry Tikki, I've got it covered." Marinette tells her kwami, calling Alya. "Dang, no signal."
"That's weird, you're mom must be doing something big." Tikki assumes.
"Yeah." Marinette agrees.
"Just work on your homework Alya gave you." Tikki suggests.
-Alya Cesaire-
Chloe gets out of her car, walking towards the school, complimenting people's outfits, sometimes saying rude things to people.
"You need to get your head examined. If she's ladybug, then I'm the Wizard of Oz!" Nino exclaims.
"She's Ladybug!" Alya says.
"Prove it." Nino rebuts.
Alya and Nino walk into the school building to see Chloe at her locker, surrounded by several people.
"Don't mess up your lines." Alya tells Nino, pushing him over towards Chloe.
"Ladybug, look over there!" Nino says, pointing behind them.
"What kind of joke is this?" Chloe asks.
"I mean, did you see Ladybug yesterday? Isn't she amazing? I wonder who she really is." Nino recovers, watching Alya sneak up behind them.
"Up too late DJing last night, Nino? You clearly didn't get your beauty sleep." Chloe comments. Alya takes a picture of Chloe's locker.
"Chloe! Alya's looking in your locker!" Sabrina says, pointing Alya out. Alya put her phone behind her back.
"That's a lie, I so was not!" Alya exclaims. Kim comes behind her and snatches her phone, pulling up the picture of Chloe's locker.
The four walk to the principal's office, and Chloe and Alya sit down.
"She's guilty of invasion of privacy! I have proof!" Chloe exclaims, showing the principal the photo Alya took.
"What? Seriously? All I did was take a measly photo!" Alya exclaims.
"I'm sorry, Chloe, but there's no school policy on invasion of privacy." Principal Damocles tells her.
"What? This is breaking and entering!" Chloe retorts.
"What? I didn't break into her locker, it was open!" Alya says back.
"And nothing was stolen then?" Principal Damocles asks Alya.
"Only my very soul! My locker is my secret garden, and her entering burglarizes my very being, takes away my life force..." Chloe walks away sobbing.
"Right. An hour of detention for you, Alya." Principal Damocles says, unimpressed by Chloe.
"Huh? Are my ears failing me? Are you giving only one hour of detention to a heinous criminal? Sabrina." Chloe snaps at Sabrina, who walks up with a clipboard.
"The school rules clearly state that any student guilty of theft shall be suspended for one full week." Sabrina reads.
"Yes, but she's hardly stolen anything." the principal states.
"I don't think my father would share your point of view." Chloe says, holding up her phone to call her father.
"I mean, Chloe, let's not bother your father, the mayor, with such a trivial thing as a locker situation." Damocles says. Chloe dials her father. "What I mean is, Alya, you're suspended for a week."
Chloe hangs up, and Alya gapes.
"What? This is so unfair! I'm so going to protest this on the school blog!" Alya says, standing up.
"The school blog is hereby suspended as well." Principal Damocles says when Chloe shakes her phone.
"Ugh, she's no superhero, she's super psycho!" Alya walks out of the office.
-Akuma-
Alya runs out of the school and slides down a concrete wall. She dials Marinette, but her phone is turned off for class. Alya sighs and puts her forehead on her arms. She didn't notice the black akuma fly into her phone in her hand.
'Lady Wifi, I am Hawkmoth. I heard that you're trying to unmask Ladybug. I'd like to help you, if you'll help me too.' Hawkmoth promises.
"No one will cover up the truth with lies. Sign me up." Alya says, transforming into Lady Wifi.
-Marinette Cheng-
"Where's Alya?" Marinette asks Nino after class.
"Chloe accused her of stealing from her locker, so she got suspended." Nino says.
"WHAT?" Marinette exclaims. "Alya would never steal."
"I know, but Chloe claims she did." Nino says.
"I'm going to go talk to M. Damocles about this." Marinette says, taking off for the Principal's office.
"M. Damocles? Sir?" Marinette walked into the office. Mr. Damocles had a pink pause button on him and wasn't moving. "Uh..."
On the screen beside his computer, Lady Wifi was talking. (She also showed up on projectors around the city, so everyone saw.
"I'm Lady Wifi, revealer of the truth! For my first exposee, Mr. Damocles would like to share something with you." Lady Wifi says, cutting to a video of Mr. Damocles.
"So, Mr. Damocles, is it true that you wrongly suspended a student named Alya today?" Lady Wifi says in the video.
"Uh, yes it is." Mr. Damocles admitted.
"So you admit you were unfair, biased, totally unjust?" Lady Wifi asks. Marinette looked closely at the phone Lady Wifi was holding. It was Alya's phone! Alya was Lady Wifi!
"Yes, I was." Mr. Damocles replies.
"Oh no! Alya! Tikki, time to transform!" Marinette exclaims.
"You're going to have to fight your best friend!" Tikki reminds Marinette.
"Nope, I'm going to have to save my best friend." Marinette replied. "Tikki, spots on!"
Ladybug looked down at her suit, thankful that it wasn't a tutu this time. She'd have to be careful about that.
"For my next scoop," Lady Wifi says, "I'll be taking you to see the girl behind the Ladybug mask. Stay connected."
"Everyone, for your own safety, go home immediately! And don't forget to read chapters 4 and 5!" Mme. Bustier says.
-Adrien Agreste-
"If Chloe's Ladybug like Alya said, then she'll be headed straight for her house!" Adrien told Plagg.
"It also means that your partner is Chloe!" Plagg reminded.
"Ugh. Plagg, claws out!" Adrien shouts. He transforms into Chat Noir and runs out of the bathroom.
Chat Noir crouches on the roof beside the Bourgeois Hotel, and pulls out his camera, zooming in on Chloe, who was dressed as Ladybug and messing around with a yoyo.
"No way!" Chat Noir says, looking at his baton. He felt something thud beside him.
"There's no way you think she's actually Ladybug, right?" Ladybug says to him.
"Haha, thank god." Chat Noir says happily.
Chloe gets up to go answer her phone, and when she does, Lady Wifi pops out of it.
"Well hello there, Ladybug." Lady Wifi says. When Chloe runs away, Lady Wifi sends a pause sign at her, causing her to stop.
"We got Wifi!" Ladybug comments, swinging over to the building.
"Well, well, looks like my hunch was correct." Lady Wifi records live. "Everyone thinks the girl behind the Ladybug mask is a little angel, but really... The real Ladybug is... Chloe Bourgeois, everyone!"
Ladybug and Chat Noir run into the hotel, catching Lady Wifi's attention.
"Who are you?" Lady Wifi asks.
Ladybug and Chat Noir look at her confusedly.
"But I thought you were Ladybug! Ugh!" Lady Wifi groans.
"Sorry to burst your news story, but next time you should double check your facts!" Chat Noir says.
"You'll be sorry!" Lady Wifi says, releasing Chloe, who stumbles and falls on her back.
"Alya?" Ladybug asks.
"Alya's been disconnected, I'm Lady Wifi." Lady Wifi announces. News flash, Ladybug, let's find out who you really are!"
Lady Wifi sends pause buttons at Ladybug, but Ladybug dodges them.
"Follow me!" Ladybug calls to Chat Noir, taking off running away from Lady Wifi.
Ladybug runs to the stairwell, running downstairs to the basement.
"What's the plan?" Chat Noir says, following her blindly.
"Her power's from her phone. We're leading her to the basement where there isn't any service." Ladybug informs her partner.
"No service no power, nice one m'lady." Chat Noir comments.
"Get ready!" Ladybug says at the bottom of the stairs, watching Lady Wifi get frustrated.
"So, what do you do when you're not Ladybug?" Chat Noir asks.
"Ugh, now's not the time. But if you must know, I play piano and dance ballet, happy?"
"Ecstatic." He comments.
"She's gone back into the hotel!" Ladybug says, running up the stairs.
"She locked all the doors!" Chat Noir replies. "Hey, I bet we know each other in normal life."
"Doubt it." Ladybug replies hastily, both running up the stairs.
"She left this door open." Chat Noir says.
"Get ready for an ambush!" Ladybug says. "1,2,...3!"
"Uh, so much for the ambush." Chat Noir comments at the empty room.
"What's with all these phones?" Ladybug asked, seeing all the phones on the table. Lady Wifi teleported through one of them. She sends pause buttons at them, which they dodge.
"Hon how brown cow!" Chat Noir says weirdly (anyone else think that line is weird?) "I thought it was you it was after!"
Ladybug sent her yoyo and grabbed Lady Wifi's arm, prohibiting her from sending more pauses at the duo. She phased away, getting away from the yoyo.
"Haha, you can't get me!" Lady Wifi taunted, teleporting all over.
"Yes I can." Ladybug retorts, walking around the room and breaking every phone. Lady Wifi runs into the kitchen with Ladybug close behind. Lady Wifi locks the door behind Ladybug, shutting Chat Noir out.
"Hold on in there, Ladybug!" Chat Noir shouts, pulling up a map of the hotel. "The service elevator!"
-Marinette Cheng-
Ladybug dodges the buttons the best she can, but gets cornered on the wall and has stop buttons on her hands, stopping her from moving. Lady Wifi puts up a record symbol to show she was recording live.
"Who is Ladybug? Is she a superhero or a superweirdo? How can we trust the girl when we don't know who she really is?" Lady Wifi walks towards Ladybug. "We have the right to know!"
Lady Wifi struggles to get Ladybug's mask off.
"Why doesn't it come off?" Lady Wifi says, exasperated.
"Uh, because it's magic?" Ladybug says sarcastically. Suddenly, there was a beep, and the service elevator opened, revealing Chat Noir.
"You're out of minutes Lady Wifi!" Chat says, running towards her.
"Aww, how romantic. Tomcat's come to save his lovebug." Lady Wifi Cooed.
"I am not his lovebug." Ladybug says.
"She isn't my lovebug." Chat Noir says.
Chat Noir got a blast into the freezer, and Lady Wifi sent a lock button there, trapping him inside. His ring flew off in the process, and Adrien set to search for it.
"Well, well, what am I going to do with both of you?" Lady Wifi ponders. "If you don't get him out fast, your crush will be slush."
"Good luck with your cat Popsicle, I have other news to cover!" Lady Wifi says, transporting out. She got rid of the locks on Ladybug's wrists, and left the recording symbol there.
"I'll get you out of there, Chat Noir!" Ladybug yells to him, banging on the door.
"T-t-t-a-a-k-k-e-e -y-o-u-r t-i-i-m-e." Chat Noir called back, shivering.
"Lucky Charm!" Ladybug calls out, getting a metal box. "What am I supposed to.. Oh!"
Ladybug drags over a microwave, putting the metal box in it. She hit start and put it next to the freezer door. Adrien had just found his ring and slid it on, calling for his transformation.
"Come on micro-thingies, jam the signal..." Ladybug mutters. The door fries, causing a mini explosion and Ladybug to fall back. Chat Noir falls out of the freezer.
"Are you okay?" Chat Noir asks when he sees Ladybug in pain. She fell right on the cut from earlier.
"Peachy." Ladybug says, getting up lazily and touching her lower back. "I have a plan."
Chat Noir covered the recording symbol with a frying pan, and the escaped using the service elevator.
"I'll fry the signal, be back in 10. K?" Chat Noir says. Ladybug nodded, and he was off.
-Adrien Agreste-
Chat Noir got out of the service elevator and ran from Lady Wifi, and head for the roof. Once he was there, he saw the Wifi tower.
"Cataclysm!" He called to his power.
"Nice idea kitty cat, but I'm not going to let you cut me off so easily." Lady Wifi teleported to the top of the telephone pole. She sent pause symbols at him, which he dodged. He sent his baton at her, where it split in two. The destroyed both of them, but only to have Chat Noir run up and cataclysm the Wifi tower.
"No!" Lady Wifi yelled. Chat Noir and Lady Wifi fought hand on hand while they waited for Ladybug to show up. Lady Wifi had Chat Noir pinned down with her phone above her, and Ladybug showed up behind them.
"I never thought I'd see you under another woman, kitty cat." Ladybug teased, sending her yoyo at Lady Wifi's arm. The phone went flying, and Ladybug caught it. She threw the phone of the ground and caught the akuma and purified it. She quickly cleansed the city.
"Pound it!" They say. Ladybug's earrings beeped the last time as the ran down the stairs to get out of the hotel. Ladybug stopped by a closet to detransform there.
"Wait, Ladybug. I wont tell, promise." Chat says.
"Sorry, no one can know, not even us." Ladybug replied.
She closed the door. Chat Noir almost opened it, but ran away instead.
As soon as he got home, he got a scolding from Plagg.
"What are you doing? You were this close to knowing who she was and you blew it!" Plagg says.
"I just followed my heart. You know, Plagg, she doesn't want me to know. I'll respect that." Adrien says, and Plagg just gags.
Heya, so I hoped ya liked... I got a 'request' from one of you to do this one, though I don't know if it was a question or a request, so here ya go... What episode do you want next?
