Chapter 11: The Reveal

Quite a few days had passed by since the plan meeting. More specifically, 3 days. Lila had indeed made more work for me to debunk lies. To take care of that certain part of the problem, I made sure to record every single one of her lies. It's quite amusing to see how even she could mix up her own lies.

Chloe's part of the plan was done. Though, she was quite stubborn saying 'I don't need to be told about schemes from you, Quanta'.

Marinette had gotten a well-approved success from her side as well:

Marinette: Hi! I hope you are doing well these few days, but I have a girl in my class who has been spreading quite a few rumors. I was just wondering if those were true are not.

Jagged Stone: Hi Marinette. My girl! It's good to hear from you. Go Ahead, I'm listening.

Marinette: This girl, Lila Rossi, she says that you made a song about her and also saved your kitten from a plane?

Jagged Stone: I don't know any Lila Rossi. She seems to be a liar to me. I also never had a kitten. That's an offense toward Fang! I mean, that's not Rock and Roll at all! If I ever made a song about anyone it would be the best superheroes and you, Marinette.

Marinette: Thanks, Jagged! I really appreciate this by the way.

Jagged Stone: Never Fear to call out the rumors! By the way I was thinking, could you make an outfit for my next show, Marinette? After all, you are my best designer.

Marinette: I'll take up on that offer! Thank You So Much.

Jagged Stone: No Probs.

Adrien's part of the situation had been quite risky and was done the last. His father hadn't really let him out of the house enough. Adrien, however managed to do it. According to him, the whole event had been awkward. The mother was quite shocked and had not like Lila's lies. She promised Adrien to immediately take care of the situation after her conference. The whole team had decided to reveal Lila the next day.

That next morning had been very silent. We all arrived early to make sure that we had enough time before Miss Bustier could come.

Adrien was still in the eyes of good intentions, so the classmates had not scowled at him. Chloe was used to being scowled by most people. It was quite troublesome for Chloe, however, to see her best friend, Sabrina, listen to Lila as well. As usual, Marinette and I got some glares and scoffs. Nothing New.

We stood in one straight line.

"Ahem. I call forth attention to this stupid, oblivious class" I proclaimed.

That got me everyone's undivided attention.

"Excellent. I believe that we, down here, have a quite a few words to say about Lie-la."

"Adrien? Shouldn't you sit down?" Lila asked.

Adrien did not spare a glance toward her, answering the class' doubt.

"What do you all have to say?" Alix said.

"Marinette. This is too much. Seriously." Alya said.

"Dude, come on" Nino said.

"AHEM!" I shouted, spurring everyone to a silence, "I believe I said that we had a few things to say." I dared them to say anything. Not a peep came up.

"As you all know, Lila had quite a few hmmm...how should I put this….Adventures. I'm quite not sorry to say that it has come to our attention that is not the case. Chloe, if you may"

She pulled up a video of her father.

"Hello, children. I've talked to Prince Ali. She has never met Prince Ali. To further back this up, Prince Ali himself is here to say that"

In the screen, the mayor lifted another screen and showed Prince Ali.

"Do I have to do this?"

A glare came from the mayor.

"Uh..hello? I don't know a person named Lila Rossi. I've never met her."

"You payed him to say that!" Lila said, "You guys have to stop! This is getting out of hand!"

"That's not true, Lila. After all, if we called Prince Ali at this moment, would he say that he knew you?"

"Of Course!"

My mental strain snapped that moment.

"Say the Truth" I said. If looks could kill, she would be 6 feet under the ground, rot.

"I am saying the truth"

I nearly lashed myself out at her. Lila jumped back in fear. Oh, the satisfaction of seeing her in fear. If it weren't for Adrien holding me back, she would have been torn to shreds. After 3 minutes of attempting to claw at her from 5 feet away, I gave up. I glared at Adrien.

I, then, brushed my clothes and stood straight, signaling Adrien that I could restrain myself now.

"Okay, Lie-la. Next Up you know Jagged Stone, do you?"

"Yes, he even wanted to make a song about me after-"

"Shut Up."

Lila shut her mouth.

"Marinette, your turn."

Marinette, I believe was more than capable of taking care of all he guilty hearts in the room, She showed everyone the texts from Jagged Stone.

"What would you say to that, Lila" Marinette asked in a cool tone.

Lila didn't say anything but glare at the girl.

"I'm honestly surprised," Marinette continued, "That all of you have forgotten that I keep in touch with Jagged. It's like as soon as you saw that Lila was better in more ways than one, you all refused to believe in the person who was beside you and helped you".

Lots of faces fell.

At that moment had Ms. Bustier come in.

"Lila, I need you to go to the Principal's office with me. Everyone, I'm sorry to say that Lila has not been around the world at all. Instead, she was at home. For that she needs to be moved to another class to catch up on her missing works and unexcused absences"

That was the final straw for the class.

Sabrina started to wail and begged Chloe to forgive her.

Everyone in the class was apologizing to Marinette.

"We are soo sorry, Marinette. We should have listened to you" Everyone came hoarding over to her.

I, on the other side, was not satisfied, yet.

"LISTEN UP EVERYONE," I shouted, calling attention once more.

"You are all lucky to have a girl like Marinette, in your class. She has a heart of gold and doesn't hesitate to do what's right. She helped you all. You all turned your back on her, when she most needed it. Once again, you are lucky that you are apologizing to Marinette. If I were the person, you were all apologizing to...I wouldn't forgive you all, instead I would be making all of your lives hell. So take this as a friendly advice when I say, If you ever ever turn your back on Mari again, I will make you feel like Death is a mercy given upon you. Got that?"

The class nodded violently in understanding.

I smiled rainbows. "Great!"

Everyone made it to their seats and I had the back all to myself, once again.
