Sorry I haven't updated. My parents took away my computer for the long weekend cause they wanted me to do other things rather than write all day lol.
Anyways, I just wanted to say that I didn't even know the answer to last chapter's question (it was my friend's question, remember?) so I actually only found out the answer 2 minutes ago after I texted her XD.
I quote her message word-by-word, "My favorite Adrien part is ADRIFOOD! honestly, who doesnt ship that!" I'm guessing by Adrifood, she meant the Adrifood moments in Gamer. Cause those were hilarious, I literally passed out laughing when I watched it the first time haha!
people who got it right: FellowFanfictioneer, XxSlytherinDemigodxX
So I know I've gotten a few reviews that say I write super slow...and yes, I do, I completely agree. But just wanted to say (again) that I'm trying my best and I can't make this top priority because (surprise!) I have other things to focus on. ya know, just because I don't have a life it doesn't mean that people don't expect me to have one outside fanfiction XD. And also, I'm only 12. So...yeah, I'm like a young writer and occasionally I do other things too lol. Anyways, I'm not trying to be rude, I just wanted to say that because if people are expecting me to update like every 2 days or so then I'm letting you know that's a bit hard. Sometimes I do update the very next day, and sometimes it can take up to a week. so overall yes, I'm trying my very best to work on this. :)
All being said, I think you want to just read the chapter so I'm going to shut up now and you can do so. ;)
QmelZ: thanks! Not sure what you mean, could you explain?
Remzal Von Enili: Probably haha. LOL yeah that would explain it!

unicorn404: Haha yes, he needs help! Omg me too..Adrifood is amazing. AMAZING! :D I think I've watched that! I just about died watching that too XD
Rescue Wolf: Thank you! :)

Lilahaterliliater: yes, that's the goal for now! :)
JEDLILY: Thank you!
MusicalGirl88: Thanks for reading! YES, I definetely noticed that and I've been using it to prove my point that she likes him ever since then. She definetely has feelings for him, she's just trying to deny it because like you said, she's too blinded by her love for Adrien.
miraculouslover: I'm very flattered that you like the story! But please keep in mind that I am trying my best. Writing isn't as easy as reading, so it might seem like a long time but I do work on this at least a little everyday. I don't want to overwork myself, but I'm trying to update every 3-4 days or so. :)
Miraculousmylife: Thanks!
1MariChatShipper: Might be, tbh I haven't decided yet. Thanks!
SugarsCube: I see you've become fond of my OC. ;) And yes, Abby is supposed to be a relatable character to the fandom XD. I love that scene, it's my favorite! Chloe is amazing haha.
lownick67: I'll keep that in mind!
MiraculousLover2: Thanks, I'm glad you liked it! Hahaha yes Adrifood for life! :D
I hope you like the chapter!
Chapter 52: Gamer part 2
"I don't see any snuggling up and snogging so far," said Alya.
"There wasn't any!" Marinette assured her.
Scene: The streets of Paris. The Gamer's ship continues absorbing people.
Gamer: I'll be at level 2 in no time! My skills are indisputable! (his ship absorbs people and vehicles) I am unstoppable! Hahahaha! (his ship evolves into a two-legged robot) Excellent! (the robot starts absorbing people, gaining more power)
"Well, he sure does have Max's skills," said Rose.
Scene: Marinette's room. Marinette and Adrien win a round.
Adrien: Wow! We won again, thanks to you!
Marinette: Yeah, um, yes we did.
Adrien: We? That was practically all you. You're amazing, Marinette. I guess you wouldn't even need me. I'm so lame compared to you…
"That's not true at all, or we wouldn't have been partnered up!" Marinette argued.
"Hey wait!" Alya jumped in. "Remember back when we watched Bubbler, I said "You're amazing, you know that, right? And someday, Adrien will realize it too." And now, look. "You're amazing, Marinette." Coincidence?"
Adrien frowned. "No. I always thought she was amazing."
Marinette blushed. "Really?"
"Definitely," Adrien laughed.
Marinette: Um, no no no, I... No, you're so good. I mean, I'm the one who's not good. I mean... I'm lucky, that's all.
"You're too modest, dude," Nino laughed.
Tom: (opens the trapdoor) Anyone want cookies? They're hot from the oven!
(Adrien wants a cookie but he groans when he didn't take a cookie from the plate)
The class burst out laughing.
Adrien's face burned. "Okay, but-"
"No way," Alya stifled another laugh. "That was too good, Agreste. Seriously, I'm starting to get what Abby means."
"I don't love them THAT much!"
"Uh huh," Chloe scoffed. "We all saw your face light up there, Adrien. You looked-"
"You looked devastated, disappointed, destroyed, dejected, it was like you were suffering in despair-" Max began.
"No, I wasn't!" Adrien turned even redder. "I was just, um..hungry."
Marinette snorted. "Hungry? You looked like your entire spirit had been lifted off you!"
"But-"
"Admit it, you dream about croissants!" Alix pressed on.
Marinette smirked. "Are you cheating on me?"
"WHAT?! Okay, this is getting a little-"
"I think he is," Rose pretended to be worried.
"Okay, do you like croissants or not?" Alya asked.
"Yes, but-"
"Are they your favorite food or not?" Juleka smiled.
"Well...yes, but-"
"Was your smile not humongous when you saw the croissants?" Marinette smirked.
"YES, but-"
"Did you not look deflated when they were taken away?" Nino asked.
"YES, BUT-"
"Are you cheating on Marinette with croissants or not?"
"Yes, but-"
"AHA!" Marinette yelled. "I knew it!"
Realization dawned on Adrien's face. "HEY! You tricked me into saying that!"
The class died in laughter while Adrien scowled.
Marinette: Papa, we're trying to work here!
"Poor Marinette," Alya laughed. "I think even I'm dying of cringe."
(Tom exits the room)
Marinette: Actually, you know what? I've got a secret. (shows him her lucky charm) This is why I win.
"I still have it," Adrien smiled, pulling a tiny beaded strand from his pocket.
Marinette's mouth flew open. "You still carry it around."
"Course I do. It came from a very special person, after all," he winked.
Marinette blushed. "I have yours too," she said, pulling an almost identical strand from her purse. "It works pretty well."
"Mine too," said Adrien.
"Awwww!" said Alya.
Everyone stared at her.
She sighed. "I interrupted the moment, didn't I?"
Adrien: Are you messing with me?
Marinette: Try playing a match with it.
(Adrien takes the lucky charm.
"Awwwwwww, the Adrienette!" Rose squealed.
(Tom and Sabine open the door)
Alya moaned. "Noooooo, they interrupted the moment!"
Marinette giggled. "I was fed up with it too."
"I was just hoping for another pastry," Adrien admitted sheepishly.
"I could tell," said Marinette, laughing.
Sabine: How about a delicious salmon and spinach pie? You can tell me what you think of it?
Adrien: Uh, Marinette. A little snack wouldn't hurt, would it?
"Adrien can't resist it any longer," Marinette teased. "He needs to have his beautiful croissants or he'll die."
Adrien turned red. "That's not true! I told you, I was just hungry!"
"A likely story," Chloe smirked.
Scene: The Place des Vosges. Marinette and Adrien are eating a snack.
Marinette: Uh, I'm really sorry. It's impossible to get anything down with my parents around.
"I noticed," said Kim.
Adrien: That's okay. (eats his pie) I didn't know your dad made such yummy pie!
Nino whistled. "He looks like he just died and went to heaven."
Marinette: Oh, uh, I... yeah! So, shall we go back?
Adrien: Let's see if it works. (he has Marinette's lucky charm)
(Suddenly, the Gamer's robot appears. Marinette and Adrien notice it)
Marinette: Tell me this isn't some kind of publicity stunt for the tournament!
Gamer: Well, well. Marinette, let's see who's victorious this time.
Adrien: Doesn't look like a publicity stunt to me.
Alya laughed. "Pfft, look at Adrien's face and tell me it's not screaming, "You're ruining my date!"."
"It definitely is," Alix agreed.
(The Gamer's robot fires a laser at them)
Adrien: Look out! (sees Marinette) Uh, we better get outta here!
(Marinette and Adrien run holding their hands, but they separate and go their ways. Marinette runs out of the Park, the Gamer chasing her. Suddenly, the Gamer's robot stands in front of her)
Gamer: Game over, Marinette!
Marinette: How does he know my name? Max! (the Gamer's robot fires lasers at her) I guess he really did want that spot on the tournament!
"How did you figure out THAT was Max, but you can't figure out that Adrien is Chat Noir?"
Adrien: Time to transform.
[ Transformation Sequence ]
Adrien: Plagg, claws out! (Adrien transforms into Cat Noir)
(Meanwhile, Marinette still runs away from the Gamer's robot. But she falls. As soon as the robot is about to fire a laser at her, Cat Noir's staff appears and hits the robot)
Gamer: Game over!
Cat Noir: Not yet! Here comes a new challenger!
"Joke," Marinette pointed. "Counts as a pun." Adrien pouted.
Marinette: Cat Noir! Hey! Over here!
(Cat Noir rescues Marinette while dodging the Robot's lasers. He jumps from ceiling to ceiling until he reaches the Grand Paris Hotel.)
"Imagine if you knew that was Ladybug," Alya laughed.
Cat Noir: I heard Miss Video Game Champion really took down the final boss.
Marinette: Well it doesn't give him extra points to go transforming everyone. Hey, wait, Cat Noir! I left my friend Adrien at the park! He might be in danger, we have to go back!
"You're talking to him," said Mylene.
"I didn't know," Marinette shrugged.
Cat Noir: Uh... don't worry. Adrien's not in danger. He'll be fine. You'll be safe here. Just stay put. Don't worry, Cat Noir will take care of everything. I should leap and do a barrel roll!
"Were you trying to flirt with me? Again?" Marinette laughed.
"Of course I was," Adrien grinned.
Marinette: Uh, he's always so over-the top.
Tikki: If ever there was a game to win, this is it! Let's go!
[ Transformation Sequence ]
Marinette: Tikki, spots on! Ha! (Marinette transforms into Ladybug)
Scene: The streets. Cat Noir follows the Gamer's robot, and sees he is heading for a bus. Cat Noir goes to where the bus is.
Cat Noir: Get away from here! As far as you can! (sees the robot) Hurry!
(The people run away)
Cat Noir: Hey, tin can! Over here!
"I feel like he can just annoy the supervillain to death. Literally, I mean," Marinette laughed. "Without any superpower, he can be so annoying that the supervillain just gives up."
"Totally, but I wouldn't want to seem too amazing," Adrien smirked.
Gamer: My calculations indicate that your system's about to crash!
(Ladybug ties the two legs of the robot with her yo-yo)
Ladybug: You're the one crashing, robot! (pulls the yo-yo's string, making the robot fall)
Cat Noir: He's a life-size robot, from Ultimate Mecha Strike!
Ladybug: I know! And it's nearly at level 3. 4 is the highest level!
Cat Noir: Wait, you know that game?
"I don't just know it," Marinette said. "I'm good at it too!"
Adrien laughed. "Imagine if I knew it was you!"
Ladybug: Duh! Of course!
"Everybody does," Alya sighed. "Were you just trying to find flirting opportunities?"
"Yes," Adrien admitted honestly.
Cat Noir: See? You and me! It was meant to be.
"Just because we know the same video game, it doesn't mean we're meant to be," Marinette laughed. "You try too hard."
(The Gamer sees the bus. He absorbs it and evolves into level 3)
Cat Noir: Uh, I think our problem just got a whole lot bigger.
Gamer: Level 3. Hahahahahaha!
Hawk Moth: If you want to be the most powerful robot in the world, you must capture Ladybug and Cat Noir's Miraculouses. Then it really will be Game Over.
Gamer: Those Miraculouses are mine! (starts attacking Ladybug and Cat Noir. He fires lasers at them, but they run away)
"That's a pretty cool power," said Adrien. "It was a fun fight."
Ladybug: We have to get him out of here before he destroys all of Paris!
(Ladybug looks at a billboard for the Tournament)
Ladybug & Cat Noir: The stadium! (they go to the stadium)
"That's smart!" Rose exclaimed.
Scene: The Parc des Princes Stadium. Ladybug and Cat Noir appear to fight the Gamer.
Ladybug: Where has Clunky got to?
(The Gamer's robot appears behind them. Ladybug and Cat Noir throw their yo-yo and staff at him to try to defeat the robot but did it didn't work)
Gamer: Hahahaha! (his robot smashes them, but Ladybug and Cat Noir dodge. They run away from its laser.)
Ladybug: Attack the robot with your Cataclysm! It might be enough to shock him!
Cat Noir: My pleasure. Two can play this game. Cataclysm! (uses his Cataclysm to destroy the Gamer's robot)
Gamer: Nooooo!
Ladybug: Smackdown, Cat Noir!
(She gives him a high five)
Cat Noir: Cat Noir Style! Booyah!
"Copycat," Marinette teased. "Good thing I didn't notice that. If I did, then I would have thought you were either someone I knew or my dad."
Adrien laughed. "Sorry, I couldn't help myself."
(A floating red sphere appears between them.)
Cat Noir: Whoa ha ha! Check out that loot!
Ladybug: System crash, Gamer!
Gamer: Hahahaha! You've forgotten the rules. I saved my last level! (touches his glasses and a more powerful robot appears) Respawn!
Everyone winced.
"Ouch, and now you only have five minutes Adrien," said Sabrina
Adrien sighed. "I guess we could have been more careful."
Cat Noir: Aww, not the old spawn point glitch again.
Max nodded. "Oh yes, that one's pretty annoying."
Ladybug: Yeah, but did you see he pushed that button on his glasses? I bet the akuma's in there.
(Ladybug touches the red sphere and a red and black robot appears. Ladybug and Cat Noir stand on it)
Ladybug: Ha! We've leveled up too!
"A robot fight!" Kim rubbed his hands together. "Oo, this will be interesting."
Cat Noir: (his Miraculous beeps) Okay, but I only got a few minutes left.
(Ladybug and Cat Noir enter their robot's cockpit.)
Cat Noir: I'll man it, you shoot!
Ladybug: Why do you get to man it?
Cat Noir: What do you say we flip for it?
"You would not have been arguing if you knew Marinette was Ladybug," Alya laughed.
Adrien shrugged. "I wouldn't have done a bunch of other things either, but that's sorta the point. I'm not supposed to know!"
(Ladybug and Cat Noir start controlling the robot, but the Gamer's robot smashes it.)
Cat Noir: Okay, you man it and I'll fire.
Ladybug: Look out! Here it comes again...
(The Gamer's robot attacks Ladybug and Cat Noir's robot. Ladybug mans the robot)
Ladybug: We'll let it go to your head! (uses a rocket punch) Booster! (the punch knocks down the head of the Gamer's robot. The Gamer puts it back on)
Gamer: Hahahahaha! Huh? (Sees Ladybug and Cat Noir's robot still standing)
Ladybug: Round two, Gamer.
Gamer: Arrrghhh... Gamer Missiles! (his robot shoots missiles out of its shoulders)
Ladybug: Forcefield, Cat Noir!
Cat Noir: Got it. Forcefield activated! (activates the robot's forcefield, destroys the missiles) Cat Saber! (takes the robot's tail off and uses it as a saber)
The entire class stared at the screen in awe.
"Woah," said Nino. "Robot fights are interesting!"
"Much better than normal villains. It was something fun for a change," Adrien agreed.
Gamer: Gamer-Drill! (activates a drill on the robot's arm, and charges on Ladybug and Cat Noir's robot. The two are still charging)
Cat Noir: This Gamer's way powerful. He just took out our forcefield!
"Look like the real tournament was here," Max laughed.
Ladybug: We're gonna have to manage without. Lady Bombs! (shoots bombs out of the robot's shoulders)
Gamer: Laser Wall! (a laser wall appears and blocks the Lady Bombs)
Ladybug: Lady Helix! (the robot's two shields fly over to the Gamer's robot, but his robot blocks them)
Cat Noir: Bullet! (the robot's two arms fly over to the Gamer's robot, but his robot neutralizes them) Ear Thunder! (uses the robot's two cat ears to make thunder, but the Gamer's robot blocks it with its own thunder)
"At least we did our training," Adrien laughed.
Marinette smiled. "Yeah, we did. Even if my parents didn't let us train, this was some good practice!"
Ladybug: He's anticipating all of our attacks!
Cat Noir: Watch out, Ladybug! (the Gamer's robot charges at them, the two robots fight)
Alya laughed. "Do you remember that super awkward quiet scene in Marinette's bedroom?"
"Compared to this," Nino added. "If only they'd known they were the same exact people all along."
"To be fair, if I'd known, then Gamer would have won. If I had known that Chat Noir was Adrien, then I would have been a-"
"Giggly mess?" Chloe guessed.
"Yup," Marinette agreed. "So it was kind of a good thing."
Gamer: Gamer Fire! (fires a blast of energy, appears next to Ladybug and Cat Noir's robot, and pushes their robot to the energy orb. Then his robot fires an eye beam to their robot) Hahahahaha! Today I shall be victorious!
"No, you shall not," Chloe rolled her eyes.
Cat Noir: (the robot stands up, charges a blast of energy and fires it at the robot) Catouken!
"I love how the names of the powers have something to do with cats and bugs," said Alya.
(Ladybug and Cat Noir's robot slams the Gamer's robot to the floor, but the Gamer's robot disintegrates and forms again, still standing)
Gamer: I am the strongest player in the world! Hahahaha!
"More like in the school, not the world," Max frowned. "And plus, that isn't true. I would never think I'm better than everybody, that's rude!"
Cat Noir: How are we supposed to beat him if we can't even catch him?
Ladybug: We have to beat him harder and jam the system! Tatsu-Lady! (kicks the robot with a spinning kick)
"Ooo!"
Cat Noir: Catouken! (fires a blast of energy at the robot)
"This is fun to watch," said Rose.
Gamer: Gamer Crusher! (spins at Ladybug and Cat Noir's robot, but they dodge)
Ladybug: Shoryubug! (does a Shoryuken at the Gamer's robot)
Cat Noir: Catouken! (fires a blast of energy at the robot, knocking it)
(The Gammer's robot stands up. The two robots fight)
Ladybug: We've gotta get inside his cockpit!
Cat Noir: Go for it. You're in charge!
Ladybug: Take the controls, Cat Noir. I'll be right back.
Cat Noir: Right back? Where are you going?!
"Later!" Adrien mimicked. "Geez, you're getting good at ditching me."
"When did I say later?" Marinette asked.
"In the episode Evillustaror," said Alya.
Ladybug: (goes out of the cockpit) It's just us two now, Gamer!
Gamer: What are they...
Ladybug: Lucky Charm! (a graffiti can appears) Huh? Graffiti? Spray paint? Arts and crafts? (Ladybug uses her Lucky Vision, and the robot's left arm and eye flash) Bingo.
"What?" Nino asked. "I'm confused, what are you going to do?"
(Ladybug runs to the Gamer's robot. She reaches its eye and sprays graffiti on it.)
"Vandalization!" Chloe yelled. "You're under arrest!"
Everyone laughed.
"But that was really smart!" Adrien exclaimed.
"You were so casual while you did it," Alya grinned.
Gamer: Aghhh! You won't get away with this! (goes out of the cockpit, and Ladybug takes his glasses off)
"Turns out you didn't even need the robot," Kim laughed.
Ladybug: Game over, Gamer. (breaks the glasses) Game's over for you too, akuma. Time to de-evilize! (catches the akuma with her yo-yo) Gotcha! (releases the akuma, turning it into a normal butterfly) Bye bye little butterfly. Miraculous Ladybug! (Throws the Lucky Charm into the air, and everything turns back to normal. The Gamer is turned back into Max)
Max: What am I doing here?
Ladybug & Cat Noir: Pound it!
Hawk Moth: Such pitiful insolence! The moment you challenge me is the moment you seal your fate! This battle is not yet over…
"Are we just going to hear him say that for the next three seasons?" Adrien frowned. "Personally, I feel like he's getting nowhere."
Marinette laughed. "He isn't, don't worry."
Scene: The Parc des Princes. The gaming tournament is about to start.
Announcer: So remember, the High Score to beat is 24,500, so gamers, hit those consoles. Game on!
Alya: You bent over backwards to be in the team and now you wanna pull out?
Marinette: It's just that I feel so bad for Max. And well, it just wouldn't be right.
"That's so nice of you," said Rose. "You're so kind!"
"I just thought it wouldn't be right," she said. "I mean, Max had been training all year, and-"
"You still won the game," Max pointed out. "So, you didn't have to give it to me."
Marinette smiled. "I wanted to!"
Alya: (stops her) You're doing the right thing. But honestly, it's not like you get the chance to play with Adrien everyday…
"Now it was Alya urging me and me wanting to not do it," said Marinette. "Different from the beginning," she laughed.
Marinette: ...Max? I've thought about this a lot, and...
Announcer: And now, representing Françoise Dupont High School...
Marinette: Well, I think you should be playing tonight, Max.
Max: What?
Marinette: Don't get me wrong! I love gaming, but it's not my heart and soul. This is your baby. It's your tournament, Max. I don't wanna take that away from you.
"That's nice," Adrien said. "Honestly, nobody else would have had the heart to do that. You're amazing, Marinette."
Marinette blushed. "Oh..well, um..thank you?"
Nino: Dudes, make up your minds. They're waiting for you.
Marinette: I insist! (gives Max the controller)
Max: I don't know how to thank you.
Adrien: By winning the tournament... with her.
"Wow, this day is filled with surprises," Alix laughed. "Seriously, all of you are too modest. If I was Marinette or Adrien, I would have snatched up the game controller and smacked butt at the competition."
"That is the difference," Marinette laughed. "I couldn't bring myself to."
"Me neither," said Adrien.
(Adrien walk over to Marinette by putting his hand on her right shoulder and she is shocked and he gives his controller to her)
Marinette: Huh?
Adrien: Go on, Marinette. You're a hundred times better than me. You belong on the team. Win the tournament for the school. I know you can do it.
"That's so ironic!"
(Alya facepalms)
Nino patted her back sympathetically. "I get you, Alya."
Nino: Go on, dudes! They're waiting for you!
(Nino takes her by the shoulder)
Marinette: No, uh, I... only with you?
"Oh, come on," Adrien laughed. "You only participated to be with me?"
Marinette smiled sheepishly. "Basically."
Max: Let's show them who's gold.
(Marinette nods. She and Max enter the gates as the other students cheer them on.)
THE END.
"That was a good episode," said Max. "I admit, seeing myself akumatized was pretty cool."
Marinette nodded. "Should I play Reflekta then?"
"Yeah!"
Okay, so for Refleka, my friend and I were thinking...it's the first episode that kinda shows Rose/juleka's first relationship. So since I ship Roseka SO much, I was thinking maybe I could make it sail in this fanfic. Rose and Juleka are one of the cutest couples ever. Thoughts?
Question of this chapter: Do I ship Ladrien or Adrifood more?
Bug out! :)
