In the few times that she faces off against Chat Noir, Marinette often finds that each face off is a little different.

A hateful Chat was still childish and immature, and in some strange twisted way, still very respectful, Ladybug noting that he didn't strike her when she put away her yo-yo; far more alarmed that she wanted to kiss him.

Puppeteer, Chat behaved as a kid, being all over the place and childish, echoing Puppeteer herself.

And caught up in Princess Fragrance perfume, he was elegant and song filled, serenading for her miraculous, trying to fight her gracefully. It was very half hearted effort from him in that little episode.

Now Chat Noir as an akuma, as Cheshire, this was a whole new level.

Even more so when she was facing him as Marinette.

She was just having an argument with Chloe when he appeared, Marinette just catching a mad smile on his lips as he moved. She didn't have time to react before Chloe disappeared before her.

Marinette gaped at the open space before her, then jerked as the akuma dropped down before her, gasping to see that for once, he was maskless.

"A-Adrien?" she whispered, wide eyed at the cat based akuma. No wait, that, that was more Chat with the hair, or, or is this—

With a broad smile, the akuma corrected, "Actually it's Chesire, Princess."

She jumped when he took her hand, bringing it up and pressing her knuckles to his lips in a lazy kiss. "Sorry for the fright," he murmured with a coy, lazy smile, purple eyes locked on her. "But Ladybug and I are going to be playing a bit of a game today. Would hate to see you caught in the crossfire."

"Uh," was all Marinette could utter before the world shifted around her. She squealed as the ground was sudden gone under her feet, grunting as she dropped on her plush bed. She laid still for a moment, gaping.

She was suddenly in her room.

Her home being a good twenty minutes away from where she was before.

"Ti-Tikki?" Marinette uttered, slowly sitting up, shaky.

The kwami darted out, frowning and equally troubled. "Was, was that…"

Tikki shook her head. She met Marinette's startled gaze and said, "This is another akuma Marinette. Someone you're going to save."

Marinette's eyes narrowed, then she nodded. "Let's do this," she agreed.

She was going to save… Adrien?

Chat?

No matter, she was going to save him.
