Ladybug
Ladybug swung into Adrien's bedroom. Empty.
She would have to be stealthy now, she couldn't afford to be caught.
She snuck down the stairs and turned the corner to head to Gabriel's office.
Adrien was sitting there. His back was to her.
She snuck up closer and was about to grab him and demand what he was thinking when she was knocked sideways.
She rolled to her feet to see Silencer. "You shouldn't believe everything you hear." He said in Adrien's voice.
Ladybug looked over at Adrien. She noticed that he was tied to the chair. He looked over at her in fear and mouthed something.
She snapped her head over to where Silencer was. He was rushed at her.
She dove out of the way. And tripped him in the process. She reached towards his helmet, then paused, how was she supposed to break it?
She called her Lucky Charm. It was an electric drill. Maybe this would work.
It was nice that her lucky charms had a more straightforward use recently. They really were getting lucky,
She drilled into his helmet, careful not to get too far in.
The Akuma flew out of the little hole in the helmet.
She captured it and threw the drill in the air. Adrien's voice was back.
"Ladybug, you have no idea how glad to see you!"
His face morphed to horror, "look out!" Her Miraculous beeped, indicating only one minute left until she detransformed. She sensed someone behind her and jumped. She landed and found Hawk Moth was standing there.
She spun her yo-yo, this wasn't good. She could see Luka out of the corner of her eye. He was disoriented but was slowly realizing what was going on.
"Surrender your Miraculous, Ladybug."
"Never, surrender yours Hawk Moth!"
He laughed, "what position are you in to be making demands? You only have seconds before you detransform, then you will be powerless against me!"
He was right. She had to get out of there, and she had to get Luka and Adrien out of there, too.
She realized that she had left Adrien tied to the chair. She didn't have time to untie him. Adrien seemed to understand that.
"Go, get Luka out of here!"
She wanted to argue but she had to leave him.
She ran and grabbed Luka then yo-yoed to Adrien's room and out his open window.
She landed and told Luka to run, and he left, leaving her in the middle of the street, alone and as Marinette. He hadn't seen her detransform.
She fed Tikki some cookies. She had to get back in there, who knew what was happening to Adrien.
She didn't think Hawk Moth would hurt him, but she needed to get him out of there.
"We're going to need everyone for this," she told Tikki
"Yeah," Tikki's usual positive disposition was gone, "we do."
Marinette ran for Master fu.
