Hello SonicRebelHD here bringing you another chapter of The Master Files. I just wanted to say that I'm really surprised that anyone is actually reading my story and actually putting me and/or my story on their favorites list so I wanted to say thank you all. Also thanks for the feed back, I know I'm a bad speller but I spend hours making sure that everything is spelled right. The only things that apparently aren't right are the names and some words which are spelled right on google; even the names are spelled right on google so sorry if they don't look right thats just how they spell it. Anyway enough of my rambling, and enjoy this next chapter.

Chapter 5

Jokes and Choices

(Marinette/Ladybug's POV)

Marinette was able to get out of the restaurant without being spotted and with her luck nobody was outside which made her job easier. "I can't let Jestro hurt my friends!" She stated as Tiky flew from her bag and gave her a determined look. "Alright Tiky, Spots on!" She shouted, transforming herself into Ladybug, and launched herself toward the hole that Jestro made. But when she got there, Jestro wasn't anywhere to be seen. People were starting to get off the ground as Ladybug landed trying to find any clue as to where Jestro went, and everyone just gave her a worried look like they did something bad.

She found her friends very easily as they escorting all the civilians out of the restaurant making her smile.

"Ladybug I'm so glad you're here." Alya said as Ladybug walked up to her. "Do you know where the ackumatized victim went?" She asked but Alya just shook her head. Ladybug grumbled as she saw Cat Noir make his flashy entrance then bowed to everyone, "Sorry I'm late to the party, some cat nip distracted me on the way here." He said jokingly making Ladybug roll her eyes.

"Haha very funny Cat, now do you know where Jestro went?"

"I believe I saw someone wearing purple and black while I was making my way here." Cat informed.

"Alright Kitty lead the way." Ladybug said as she followed Cat Noir, trying to catch any sign of Jestro. As they kept jumping from building to building Jestro's path became more clear to her, with some type of pie splattered on random buildings and burnt marks scattered across the ground. Soon they caught up to him, he was skipping across the sidewalk like he was in a grassy plain on a summer day.

They landed right in front of Jestro making him stop in his tracks with a surprised look on his face, making Ladybug smirk in triumph. "Jestro surrender now, you have no where to go." Ladybug said as she started spinning her yo-yo and Cat, his staff. Jestro just laughed which Ladybug wasn't expecting making her back up defensivly. "Ahh Ladybug, and Cat Noir, my master has been looking for you," He spoke making the hairs on her neck stand on end.

"He wants your miraculous but instead I want to give you a gift." Jestro said as he threw them a purple ball, which Cat caught but right as he did it started blinking. "Oh crap its a bomb!" Ladybug said making Cat panic and try to throw it but it was stuck to his hand. Jestro just laughed that their struggle making Ladybug a little irritated, "Cat use your Cataclysm." Ladybug informed as she attacked Jestro who barely douged, making his smile disappear which to Ladybug was a realif.

Jestro pulled some knives from his bag that she just noticed he was wearing and started to fight back, making Ladybug start to retreat. Cat jumped in to block a strike that would've been fatal for her which made Jestro jump away in irritaion. "Thanks Kitty." Ladybug said as she tried to see if she could pin-point the ackuma. "No problem Bugaboo but lets finish this quickly I have a afternoon grooming I have to attend to." Cat said with a wink making Ladybug roll her eyes with a small smile.

They launched themselves at Jestro attacking with everything they had but he was more limber than Ladybug had estimated; he dodged everything like he was doing a gymnastics routin, seeming to be messing with them as the battle continued. Finally when Jestro tried to attack, Ladybug grabbed his arm and threw him at a nearby wall, using enough force to crack the wall with his body. Jestro slowly slid down the wall until he was on the floor, immobile.

"Well I guess there's no mercy for the comedian." Cat commented making Ladybug flinch. "Yea sorry, he was just pushing my buttons, lets find where the ackuma is." Ladybug said as she walked up to Jestro but a cold sensation slithered its way down her back, giving her the feeling that something was wrong. All of a sudden, Jestro pulled two pies from his bag and threw them at Ladybug and Cat, which hit them and sent then flying into the wall.

Instead of sliding down the wall like Ladybug thought, they stayed put which made Ladybug's face pale. 'Oh no we're stuck.' She thought as she did everything in her power to move but to no avail. She saw Cat trying to break free but obtained the same result; Jestro just laughed at their predicament, making Ladybug clench her teeth in anger.

"Now, now what have we here?" Jestro asked as he skipped over to them. "I guess the bug and cat got caught by the pie trap, such a pity I was hoping for more of a challange." He complained making Ladybug struggle harder, her anger getting the better of her.

"Well I guess I'll take two miraculous to go S'il vous plaƮt." Jestro said as he made for her earrings but something hit his hand making him slap her face. She glared at him but he wasn't looking at her; she looked over to see who he was looking at and her eyes widened, it was Corrin holding Cat's staff in hand looking at it in confusion, 'Oh no' She thought as Jestro growled at him and lunged.

(Corrin's POV)

Corrin swallowed as Jestro lunged at him, he didn't mean for Jestro to actually attack him but it got him away from Ladybug so it would have to do. Corrin quickly slid past Jestro's attack making him stumble and almost fall on his face. Corrin had never tested his fighting ability until now and now since he was here, Corrin felt pretty confident as every attack Jestro threw at him, he seemed to be getting slower and slower.

Corrin, quickly noticing his golden glow, started to calm his nerves as the fight progressed; then as Jestro threw one of his knives at him, Corrin slid past it and smacked Jestro right in the mask with Cat Noir's staff which to Corrin's surprise made it crack! Jestro quickly retreated, feeling his mask then glared at him; Corrin didn't mean to swing so hard, to him that felt like nothing at all but as usual Corrin underestimated him and his powers. 'Note to self, my strength is stronger than I think.' Corrin thought as he took his stance but Jestro was no where in sight. Corrin sighed as he quickly ran towards the trapped heroes who were looking at him with surprise written all over their faces. "Hey guys looks like you're in a sticky situation." Corrin said as he tried to hold in a smile but failed as Ladybug giggled slightly which made Cat Noir looked at her with his mouth wide open.

"Y-you never laugh at my puns why his?!" Cat complained as Ladybug's face went to a pinkish color. "It's all about the timing." Corrin quiped as Cat Noir made a O with his mouth. "NO I was laughing at your reaction to your own pun." She said making Corrin smile with embarrassment.

"Anyway can I help with anything?" Corrin asked as he scanned the pies that they were stuck in. "Well let me see if my power can help." Ladybug said as she swung her yo-yo with her wrist and flung it into the air. "Lucky Charm!" She called making butterflies swarm around the yo-yo and out of it came a red and black chinese doll which landed in Corrin's hand.

Ladybug looked around but soon her eyes showed defeat as she shook her head. "I got nothing any ideas?" She asked as Corrin examined the doll. Corrin quickly got an idea as he opened the doll to reveal another doll which was exactly what Corrin was hoping for. He held onto the smaller one as he clicked the bigger one back together and placed it in between the two pies which quickly stuck to the doll. "See where I'm going with this?" Corrin asked as Ladybug's eyes lit up in realization.

"You're planning to use Cat's Cataclysm to destroy the shell which since it's stuck to the pies would destroy the pies as well thats incretable." Ladybug complemented as Corrin blushed. "You would of thought of it sooner or later." Corrin said as he looked at Cat expecting him to use his Cataclysm but he did nothing. "Sorry I don't have my power, I used it to destroy a bomb."

"Then how do you recharge it?" Corrin asked but was met with defensive eyes. "We can't tell you, we must keep our identities a secret." Ladybug explained. Corrin nodded as he looked around and found a paper bag which Corrin quickly grabbed made some eye holes and placed it over Cat's head. "There secret is saved," Corrin said with satisfaction as Cat laughed.

"One more thing, do you have any camenbert?" Cat asked making Corrin arch his eyebrow. "Um no wh-uh never mind I'll go find some." Corrin said as he rushed to the Age of Reason and went straight to the storage area. He quickly found the camenbert, grabed a piece and ran back in record time. "Ok now what?" Corrin asked as Cat Noir's ring started to flash.

"J-just hold the cheese behind your back and close your eyes." Cat Noir said in a rush as his ring started to flash even faster. Corrin quickly closed his eyes as a zapping met his ears. There was silence as Corrin waited for something to happen but then he felt it, something placed itself on his hand and took the cheese from his grasp. He heard the chewing get louder as he felt something climb up his arm and sit on his shoulder.

"So Corrin," A familiar whisper spoke that almost made his heart skip a beat. "Quick question before I go, are you Master Light?" It asked making Corrin's stomach feel queasy. Corrin's mind raced as he kept his eyes shut, wondering how in the world did anyone know about his past life. The voice he heard sounded almost like the kwami Plag that he saw in his memory, but that couldn't be possible 'Or was it?' Corrin thought as he finally put two and two together. 'Plag gives Cat Noir his powers!' Corrin thought as he mentally smacked himself, then nodded to Plag's question.

"Really uh I wasn't expecting that answer," Plag admitted making Corrin smile, "Ok meet us at the top of the Eiffel Tower tonight at mid-night." He finished as Corrin nodded wondering who else would be there. Corrin then felt Plag leave his shoulder making Corrin relax a little, then after hearing Cat Noir say 'Claws out!' Corrin opened his eyes to see Cat Noir back and ready for action. "Ok so I just destroy the doll and that destroys the pies as well right?" Cat asked as Corrin nodded.

"Allright here it goes, Catyclism!" Cat Noir shouted, making his hand get enveloped in dark energy. 'Yep defenetely Plag.' Corrin thought as Cat touched the doll. Instantly everything from the doll to the pies turned black then scattered to dust letting Cat and Ladybug free.

"Thank you Corrin." Ladybug said as she grabbed the small doll and lunched herself over a building.

"Yea thanks, also great fighting out there." Cat complemented as Corrin handed him his staff. But right before Corrin could say anything Cat jumped after Ladybug leaving Corrin with an interesting night ahead of him.

(Cat Noir's POV)

Cat Noir quickly caught up to Ladybug as they leaped from building to building trying to find Jestro who has seemed to vanish into thin air. He was a little upset that Ladybug laughed at Corrin and not him but Corrin did have perfect timing. Cat quickly shook that out of his mind as Ladybug stopped suddenly making Cat Noir pull a u-turn in the air to meet her.

"Darn it, I think we lost him." Ladybug grumbled as she dropped to the floor, looking frustrated. Cat wanted to go encourage her but her intense eyes told him not to as he closed his eyes trying to see if he could use his other senses. He didn't use it much but Cat's hearing and smell were greatly enhanced thanks to his powers but he was glad he had them, as he let everything else fade away, trying to listent for Jestro.

Then he heard it, a very feint wicked laugh of triumph chimed in his ears, making them perk up in alert. "He's close, come on." Cat said as he extended his staff, launching himself towards the sound. After a couple of long jumps they finally found him, as they landed and saw Jestro looking at Andre and Chloe who were pied to the wall.

"Good hearing Cat." Ladybug said as she scratched his chin slightly, which made his face heat up slightly.

"Ok whats the plan?" Cat asked as Ladybug pinched her chin with her thumb and pointer finger in thought. "We need to get Jestro away from those two," She replied as she pulled out her yo-yo, opened it up and used it as a camera, zooming in on the scene.

"I can make a great distraction my lady." Cat offered but she shook her head. "No I think we need to lure him somewhere so we can trap him."

"Ok so am I the bait?" Cat asked up she shook her head again.

After a little while, her eyes lit up like a light bulb got turned on in her head, "Ok, heres the plan," She started, as she whispered the rest to Cat. The idea was sneaky and a little risky but Cat was all about the risky plays; with the prompting of Ladybug, Cat rushed toward the Eiffel Tower trying to think of the purfect hiding place to enact Ladybug's plan.

"Should I tell Ladybug how I feel Plag?" Adrien asked as he sat on one of the beams in the Eiffel Tower, having a perfect view of the setting sun and a lookout for when Ladybug and Jestro arrive. "Well you tried once on valentines day last year and failed sooo..." Plag said munching on some camenbert before their surprise attack. "Yea I know, and I know she likes someone else but what if I tell her how I feel and that changes her mind." Adrien suggested but Plag just eating which discouraged him slightly. "Yea highly unlikly," Adrien concluded, resting his head in his hands in disappointment.

'Don't worry Adrien you have plenty of girls after you, like Kugami-"

"She's just a friend who I fence with." Adrien interupted.

"Well how about Marinette, that would be an ironic pairing." Plag commented.

"She's just a- wait, wait a minute what do you mean by ironic pairing?" Adrien asked having caught the word ironic at the last second. "Uh did I say ironic, no I meant interesting, yea interesting." Plag said with a very wide smile making Adrien glare at him. "You aren't lying to me are you?" He asked.

"Noooo, I would never lie to you, honest Adrien, cats honor." Plag insisted.

Before Adrien could press more, he saw a flash of red in the corner of his eye, making him turn towards it to see Ladybug, followed by Jestro heading their way. "Ok Plag, Claws Out!" Adrien called instantly turning into Cat Noir and got ready to strike. Ladybug and Jestro arrived soon after Cat transformed, and they weren't messing around. Jestro throwing his knives, pies and bombs at Ladybug, who dodged nimbly but looked to be having trouble.

It took almost everything Cat had not to jump in and help her, but he waited hoping she'd be ready soon. Ladybug kept getting past Jestro's advances, making Jestro look like a fool (pun intended) but then he cornered her between all of his items. Jestro smiled as he giggled in excitment, clapping his hands as he jumped from one foot to the other. "I finally got you Ladybug! Jestro wins a fabulous prize, your miraculous!" Jestro cheered as Ladybug winked at Cat, who nodded at the signal and instantly spung into action. Quickly and quietly Cat ran behind Jestro, extended his claws and slashed Jestro's bag, completely ripping it appart.

Jestro gasped in surprise as Cat slide past him, and took his stance next to Ladybug, "Oop's I thought that was a scratching post." Cat apologized as Jestro's face paled even more than it already was. Before Jestro could even speak, Ladybug flung her yo-yo at him, wrapping it around his body binding him in place.

"Now Cat!"

"On it, Catyclism!" Cat called as he rushed towards Jestro and placed his hand on Jestro's mask which blackened instantly, and it realised the ackuma. Ladybug quickly opened her yo-yo and caught the ackuma changing it back into a pure white butterfly.

"Miraculous Ladybug!" She calls as she threw her lucky charm into the air, making it burst into millions of butterflies that flew all across Paris, restoring everything back to the way it was. "Pound it!" Cat and Ladybug said in unison as they fist bumped. Ladybug's earrings started to flash indicated that she would turn back soon so it was Cat's cue to leave.

"Alright my lady, I'll see you next time." He said as he was about to jump but a golden flash blinded him making him stumble and fall on his face. "Oh gosh, are you ok?" Ladybug asked, helping Cat up who felt humiliated. "Yea I'm fine, d-did you see that golden flash?" Cat asked as he scanned the horizon but only could see the sun which gave off an orange hue. "No, what golden flash?" She asked as she looked around.

Cat just shook his head, "Never mind, see you." He sighed as he extended his staff, launching himself in the direction of his house for some relaxation and some sleep.

(Corrin POV)

Corrin's heart was pounding, as he laid on one of the iron beams at the top of the Eiffel Tower for what felt like hours. He didn't just want to leave Ladybug and Cat Noir behind to fend for themselves, so he ran after them but what happened next completely caught him by surprise. His golden armor suddenly apeared, and he started to lift off the ground all at the same time! It had freaked him out, he wasn't expecting one of his powers to be flight, but he had shrugged it off and kept following them.

He almost got caught to, even though after he noticed that a knights helm was covering his face, it almost gave him a heart attack. But after he made it to the top of the Eiffel Tower, he landed and his armor disappeared so all the excitement was over, or so he thought. Corrin had remembered that he was supost to met Plag and someone else up at the top of the Eiffel Tower, so he waited, decided to take a nap and let his mind rest. Then, feeling a little restless, Corrin opened his eyes and glanced up at the star speacked night sky. It was gorgous, completely breath taking, and it made him feel at ease. Corrin knew he messed up today, with all his friends finding out he had a job at a restaurant and a high ranking one too. The one he was most worried about was Marinette; she was way too observant for a normal high school kid, she seemed to know when he lied or didn't show the whole picture which Corrin wasn't ready for.

He had prepared for almost anything, but a super intelegent, kind, pretty girl like Marinette finding out his secrets was not one of them. Corrin shook those thoughts out of his head as he sighed, looking up at the consalations, until a familiar voice caught his attention. "Oh come on he isn't here yet." Plag's voice rang out as Corrin looked down to see the small black and red humanoids he saw in his memory.

"Plag are you sure Corrin said he was Master Light, because if he isn't then-"

"Yea, yea I know Sugercube but I swear that was what he said." Plag said with worry in his voice.

"Sugercube? Why do you call her that Plag?" Corrin asked as he hopped down startling the two of them.

"You said my name. You really are Master Light." Plag said in a hushed voice as he hovered over to Corrin.

"Really Plag, you believe him after he just said your name? Don't we need a little more proof before we actually call you by that name?" The red humanoid said who's name Corrin remembered was Tiky.

"Um maybe this will sufise?" Corrin asked as he focused on his arm and enveloped it in golden armor, making Tiky gasp.

"Y-you really are Master Light, h-how are you still alive?" Tiky asked as she rushed over to Corrin and gave him a hug.

"Yea I'd like to know that as well." Plag said as he circled Corrin's head, making him slightly dissy. "To be honest, I don't know." Corrin admitted as they both looked at them with confused looks.

"I remember my life here, in this time but my other life; most of it's a blurr, the only things I remember are you kwamis, your names, and a little bit about my power; but other than that I don't remember much." Corrin admitted as he leaned his back against the wall and slide down to sit.

"Th-that must be rough." Plag said which made Corrin laugh.

"Not really, even though I get curious at times, its a blessing not to remember the hardships that I've had to face, or the responsibilities that I carry over here." Corrin explained, "I know I have a purpose here, but even knowing little of my past, I know that its going to be full of hardship, so why should I even want to know about my past if it'll just put fear into my mind, making me not want to have this path." Corrin finished as he put his face in his hands, trying to ease his mind of his troubled thoughts.

There was silence for a little while, but Corrin felt something touch his cheek. He pulled his face from his hands to see Tiky placing her hand on his cheek in concern but with a knowing smile on her face. "You haven't changed in all these years, you still put others before yourself." Tiky commented making Corrin blush slightly.

"Have any millennium long wisdom that I could use?" Corrin asked making Tiky giggle slightly.

"I suggest that you find a way to get your memories back." Plag commented making Corrin arch his eyebrow in confusion.

"Why?"

"Well, if you're the same person as you were back then, then even with the knowledge and fear if you have any, you would charge headfirst into your problem." Plag explained as he sat on Corrin's shoulder but right when he did that, Corrin heart skipped a beat.

All of a sudden, Corrin winced as excruciating pain wracked his head making him double over. He could hear voices as he held his head, trying to calm himself but it only got worse as everything around him started to be illuminated in a golden light. Then Corrin couldn't take it anymore, he roared out an agony, releasing a shockwave that shook the Eiffel Tower! Then Corrin's vision blurred as everything around him vanished in an endless white void.
