AND THE RESULTS ARE IN! From a strong vote of 12 to 8, Danny is going to get a miraculous. But no worries, I won't make Danny too OP in the story for those who are worried about that. So yeah...

I would also like to take this time to give my thoughts out to anyone who is dealing with the corona virus or with someone who is affected by it. My school closed down for the next two weeks and being a senior it's going to be tough. Just remember to keep clean and sanitary. I would hate for any of you to suffer from the virus. So please take care of yourselves.

On another note, now that I have two weeks of no school (it could be longer for any school), I just might update a little faster. That just depends cause I do have to do school online now which is a pain. I'll try my best and you all just please be safe and try to keep out of crowded areas.

Chapter 7

Adrien watched as Marinette rushed out of the classroom the minute the bell rang. He looked to Alya who sighed. He knew Marinette was rushing out of class for the past four days now. Maybe there was something wrong!

"Is there something wrong with Marinette?" Adrien asked Alya who shrugged.

"I don't know. Everytime I ask her she dodges the question or something else comes up." Alya answered as Adrien couldn't help compare Marinette to Ladybug. The heroine had been doing the same thing as well. Leaving right after an Akuma attack and Patrol. It was really starting to worry Adrien and Chat Noir after a bit.

"Maybe I can ask her." Adrien said as Alya smirked.

"Yeah, I think she'll tell you everything." Alya said as Adrien doubted it. Marinette would always stutter or act very awkward around him. But he could at least try.

"Okay, see you tomorrow, Alya." Adrien walked over to the car where the Gorilla and Natalie were waiting. He sighed as he got into the car and looked out of the car. The car ride was silent as Adrien was left alone to his thoughts.

Phantom. He was such an anomaly. The Ladyblog was bursting wondering who this new hero was, but he hadn't shown up in any of the Akuma attacks other than the Robber. Chat Noir was right, Phantom wasn't really a hero if he didn't come to save the people of Paris.

Adrien smirked, but it didn't mean that everything went back to normal with Ladybug. Chat Noir still had a hard time trying to approach Ladybug as she was fleeing the scene. Alya had been bombarding Chat with questions about Phantom, which got on his nerves. Why was everyone so interested in Phantom? He only appeared one time!

"Adrien, we have arrived." Natalie's voice brought Adrien out of his thoughts. Gorilla opened the door for him as Adrien stepped out.

"I'll be in my room working on some homework then." Adrien walked into the spacious yet empty manor and sighed. His father was possibly working on something, too busy for his only son. Adrien walked into his room and closed the door behind him. He put his phone on the speaker and played soft piano music.

Adrien sat at his desk and looked at his mother in the wallpaper. He smiled a bit and browsed through memories of his mother. A soft smile rested on his face until a scream broke out. He swerved around to see Plagg lounging on his bed eating some cheese.

"Plagg! How many times must I tell you! No eating on the bed! The cleaner will kill me." Adrien said as Plagg flew off the sheets as Adrien fixed the creases.

"Who cares? I was having my delicious delicacy." Plagg said as he threw his cheese in the air and caught it in his mouth. Adrien gagged as Plagg swallowed it whole. "Oh, that really hits the spot." Adrien rolled his eyes as he turned to open the window.

"Enough eating, Plagg. My Lady needs my help." Adrien said as he held out his fist. "Plagg, Claws out!" Plagg sighed.

"Why can't I just take a whole day oooooofffffff?!" Plagg asked as he was sucked into the ring. Adrien smiled as he quickly transformed into Chat Noir and leaped out of his window.

Chat Noir ran over rooftops, leaping over buildings with the help of his trustful silver baton. Wind blowing through his usually neat hair, making it a bit messy. But Chat didn't care. He was free! Free from that prison house.

"YAHOO!" Chat Noir yelled as he leaped higher than he ever had before. Adrenaline talking over his body as he spotted his black and red companion. He landed next to her with a goody smile on his face. "You knight in leather armor has arrived, My Lady." Chat bowed dramatically as Ladybug rolled her eyes.

"Not today, Chat." Ladybug said, pulling her hand out of his grip. "But I think today's akuma may have something to do with Nino's little gig on TV." Chat Noir mentally slapped himself. Of course! The little game on TV this afternoon. How could he have forgotten that?!

"Of course, purrincess." Ladybug rolled his eyes. "So what's his name?" Just as those words left his mouth, a voice behind him chuckled.

"Simon Says, that's the name! Ready to play our little game?" Both miraculous holders turned around to face the akuma. To be honest, Ladybug flinched. The color design didn't match at all. Bright green and purple, wasn't meant to be clashed together unless you're the joker. Then that falls in DC's compartment.

"I love games, but not yours." Ladybug said with a smile on her face. Chat noticed her cheery behavior, much different than before. Maybe whatever was bothering her went away.

"Oh you'll love this game Ladybug as well as your little feline companion." Simon said as he held up some cards. "I think he should act like one! Simon Says, act like a cat!" The card glowed a bit as Simon threw it at Chat Noir.

"Whoa." Chat said as he sidestepped the oncoming projectile. "You gotta be kitten me!" Ladybug mentally groaned as she spun her yo-yo creating a shield.

"No time for puns, Chat! We have to find that akuma." Ladybug leapt into the air, dodging more cards aimed at her.

"Simon Says, stay still, little bug!" Simon yelled as he threw more cards at her.

"Hey!" Chat shouted as he ran on all fours to get away from the barrage of cards. "Aren't you afraid of someone getting a papercut?" Ladybug groaned as Simon smiled.

"Me? No…" Simon shook his head and ducked quickly before Ladybug could kick in him the face. "Simon Says, you are a cat." He threw the card at Ladybug who realized she couldn't move in time.

"Ladybug!" Ladybug felt herself being pushed out of the way by none other than Chat Noir.

"Chat?" Ladybug asked as she looked down to see messy golden hair.

"Mew?" Ladybug blinked as big green eyes looked back at her. They looked almost like a real cat. Chat Noir got up and sat down like a cat. Oh no…

"Chat Noir?" Ladybug asked slowly as Chat stared at her with big watery eyes.

"Meow." Simon was laughing as Ladybug stared at Chat.

"Oh, isn't that beautiful? That Black Cat has finally become an actual cat." Simon said as Ladybug frowned.

"Hiss!" Ladybug looked at Chat to see what he was staring at, but before she could do anything, she felt an arm snake around her waist and launched her into the air.

The flower that blooms in adversity is the most rare and beautiful of all

The Emperor (Mulan)

The scream startled both Danny and Marinette as they were broken out of their little moment. Danny heard Marinette sigh and turned to look at her.

"Don't worry. This is basically a regular occurrence in Paris. Akumas feed off the negative emotions of their victim." Marinette quickly explained while she bounced on the balls of her feet. Danny scribbled down on the notebook.

You okay? You look anxious. Very Anxious. Marinette gave Danny a shy smile.

"My friend, Alya, rubs our trying to get a close video of the action so I worry about her. I want to make sure she's safe." Marinette explained. That made sense.

Does she have a website or something? Marinette blinked. Wow, Danny could really read people. Marinette nodded.

"Yeah. It's called the Ladyblog based upon one of Paris's Superheroes, Ladybug." Danny nodded and wrote something on the notebook.

Well, you better get going. I can already feel that she's gotten herself in trouble already. Marinette giggled. That was definitely Alya. Marinette ran out of the room leaving Danny to himself. Danny watched Marinette leave and mentally sighed. It reminded him whenever he had to rush out of class to fight a ghost.

A smile graced his lips and stayed there, until a certain little creature flew into his face. She was a bright red with multiple black horns on her head. Her eyes were a golden hue that smoldered into Danny's blue ones. Her name was Longg and she was the dragon Kwami.

"You need to help Ladybug and Chat Noir." She stated as Danny rolled his eyes. Longg could easily get the message.

Why should I? I'm not a hero. Longg frowned. Her holder didn't seem to understand the concept of having a miraculous.

"You have to! Once you put on the miraculous, you made a promise to protect the people from all evil." Longg argued as Danny furrowed his eyebrows, silently communicating with the kwami.

It was only a one time thing that I put you on! This… Danny waved his hands around. Was never supposed to happen again. Ladybug and Chat Noir can fend well on their own. Longg pressed whatever lips she had and flew in front of Danny's face.

"I don't care if this was supposed to be a one time thing. The people need you just like they need Ladybug and Chat Noir." Longg floated down a bit. "You can return me to Master Fu after this akuma, but please protect this city." Danny stared at Longg and frowned.

He didn't understand why those two superheroes needed his help. They could figure it all out on their own, just like he did when he first got his powers. No one could help him understand or tame his powers. But… Danny sighed, then he nodded. Longg beamed at her holder.

"Yeah! You know the words!" Danny had an amused look on his face. Longg reminded him of Danielle. He wondered how he was doing. He could think about that later, for now he had to help a certain cat and bug.

Bring the Storm. Longg squealed as she was sucked into the choker on his neck. The family left it on the table and Danny took the time to put it on when Sabine wasn't looking. Danny changed into a red, black,and gold suit. Not really his style as white rings appeared around his waist and traveled vertically in opposite directions.

The suit changed into something more Phantom like and his hair turned silver. Phantom rolled his head, cracking the bone and smiled. He was ready.

He let out a deep breath and was ready to take the leap out of the window, but a burning sensation burst in his chest. He couldn't yell or whimper since Sabine and Tom were downstairs. He would just have to suck it up for now. With a hand clutched to his chest, he jumped out of the window ready to help those in need, for hopefully, the last time.

Sometimes the smallest things take up the most room in your heart.

Winnie the Pooh

Hawk moth stood in his lair, waiting and pondering. He knew that Ladybug and Chat Noir were the main two heroes in Paris, he didn't need another one. But this Phantom figure threw everything out of proportion. He had to do something.

"Nooroo, Dark wings fall!" Hawk Moth's transformation fell as a butterfly themed kwami flew out of his brooch. His face was obscured by the darkness. "Nooroo, what can you tell me about this Phantom character?" He held up a photo of the said 'hero'. Nooroo stared at it, but then shook his head.

"Nothing, Master. There is no miraculous with this suit. Plus, not being near him, I cannot sense anything at all." Nooroo explained as Hawk Moth frowned. He needed more on the boy. He rubbed his chin as he thought about his latest akuma, Simon Says.

Not the most appealing name, but it stuck. Even with the other akumas that he had thrown in the faces of Ladybug and Chat Noir, Phantom hadn't shown up. He was beginning to wonder if Phantom was only a one time thing.

As Hawk Moth pondered, one single idea came into his mind. It would be great if he could have a powerful warrior like Phantom on his side.
