Chapter 29)The Plan
The eight heroes sat around Marinette's room, trying to devise a good strategy. "What if Cornelia gets herself akumatized and she can probably sense where he is with her telepathy powers?"
"That's a good plan, but what if she gets out of control?" Marinette asked. "Yeah, there's no telling what she might do under Hawkmoth's control," Adrien agreed. "Oh, come on," Cornelia said, "It couldn't be that hard."
"You don't understand, Cornelia," Will said, "When he gets a hold of you, you lose all self control."
"But Matt still had a little control," Hay Lin pointed out. "Yeah, barely," Matt said. "I still don't think we should take the chance," Adrien said. "Fine," Cornelia said, waving it off.
It was at this point that Marinette noticed Taranee looking at the clear hatch in the ceiling and was drawing invisible patterns in the air with her finger. "Hey, T, what are you doing?" the bluenette asked. The girl apparently ignored her as she continued to draw. "Uh, Taranee?" Adrien asked, still not getting a response. After a few seconds of her still not responding, she suddenly jerked and grabbed her head. She then turned toward Irma and exclaimed, "Irma! Did you really have to do that?!"
"Sorry," the water guardian replied, "You weren't answering them." Taranee blinked a couple times before turning to Adrien and Marinette, "S-sorry, what did you say?"
"We were wondering what you were doing," Marinette said, "You were starting at the ceiling and doing something weird with your hands."
"Oh, I was just trying to figure something out," Taranee said. "What?" Will asked. "Well, I noticed that the butterflies that Ladybug releases after she cleanses the akumas all fly in the same direction," Taranee explained. "Yeah?" Matt asked, "What about that?"
"Well, I was thinking, what if they're all flying back to the place they were sent from?" she said. "You mean back to Hawkmoth?" Adrien asked. "Exactly," Taranee answered. "So what? You want us to follow a little white butterfly all the way to Hawkmoth?" Irma said. "Yeah," Taranee replied.
"What if Hawkmoth catches us when we're following it?" Matt said. "Not we," she answered as she stood up.
She walked by Hay Lin and put her hand on her shoulder. "Hay Lin?" Marinette asked. "We can use her special power," Taranee said. "Which is?" Adrien asked. After he said this, Hay Lin vanished before their eyes.
"What?" Marinette said out loud, "Where'd she go?"
Adrien then noticed Marinette's framed picture of him start to hover behind her, "Uhh, Princess?" Marinette turned around and nearly fell over, startled by the moving photo. "W-what the heck?!" she exclaimed. Hay Lin giggled as she reappeared in front of them, picture in hand. "Hay Lin?" Marinette asked, astonished, "How did you do that?"
"Remember how we said we have different powers from each other, apart from our normal powers?" Will asked. "Yeah, Irma has the power to manipulate a person's volition, Cornelia has the power of telekinesis, Taranee has the power of telepathy," Adrien counted out. "So yours is invisibility?" Marinette said. "Mm-hmm," Hay Lin replied.
"So what's your extra power, Will?" Tikki asked. "It's kinda hard to explain," Will said with a chuckle. "You can tell us," Plagg said. "Nah, it's not worth your ti-," Will abruptly stopped her sentence and then said, "None of your business, Alex!"
Marinette, Adrien and the two kwamis looked toward where her conversation, but became confused when they only saw Marinette's desk and computer, turned on with her background being that of her and Adrien. "Uh, who are you talking to?" Marinette asked. "Yeah, this looks a little weird, huh?" Will said, "Well, that's my power."
"What, talking to nothing?" Plagg said. "No, I was talking to the computer," Will said. "The computer?" asked Adrien. "Yeah, I have the power to talk to electric devices," the red-head answered, "You know, computers, phones, toasters, et cetera," she said. "Mmm, I think she's just crazy," Plagg said, taking a piece of Camembert and throwing it in his mouth. "Plagg!" Adrien said, "Sorry about that, Will."
"It's okay," she said, "I can prove that I'm not crazy."
"Alright," Marinette said.
"Alex, open up a picture of Marinette's class."
They watched the computer as the class photo taken on the day that Juleka was akumatized. "How the heck did you do that?" Marinette asked in slight shock. "I told you, I can talk to electronics," Will said. "Alright," Marinette said, trying to get back on track, "So you think that might work, Taranee?"
"It couldn't hurt to try," the fire guardian answered, "Now we just need to wait for another akuma attack."
"Well, that won't be too hard," Irma said, "Just have to wait for Chloé to open her mouth." They all laughed at the girl's comment. "Okay, but what about after we find his hideout? What do we do then?" Matt asked. "Easy, we get in there, beat the guy, get his Miraculous and get out," Will said. "It's not that simple," Marinette said, "Once, he created an akuma that gave him the power the create more than one akuma at a time."
"After we beat her, we went face to face with Hawkmoth, and he had a sidekick, Mayura, who we think must have the peacock Miraculous," Adrien added. "And what does the peacock Miraculous do?" Hay Lin asked. "She can create Sentimonsters," Adrien said. "What's that?" Cornelia asked. "They're creatures created by whoever holds the item that gets possessed with an amok," Tikki explained. "Amok?" Taranee said. "It's like an akuma, but instead of a butterfly, it's a feather," Plagg said. "So, to stop a Sentimonster is by breaking the item with the amok and cleansing it?" Will deduced. "Exactly," Marinette said.
Adrien's phone sounded, alerting him of a text. He pulled it out and checked it. "Oh, man," he said sadly, "I gotta go."
"Oh, okay," Marinette said, "I'll see you tomorrow." She stood up and gave him a small kiss before he and Plagg left her room. "Actually, we should get going, too," Will said, noticing the sun descending over the horizon. "Alright, see you guys tomorrow," Marinette said, waving them good-bye.
After they all left, she sat down at her desk and opened her sketchbook, beginning a new design. Tikki flew over to her and sat on the pin cushion she kept by her. "Do you really think this'll work, Marinette?" the little kwami asked. Marinette sighed and set her pencil down, "I don't know, Tikki."
"Why didn't you say something?" Tikki asked. "Because it's the only plan we can come up with for now," she replied, "Besides, nothing can go wrong, right?"
"And what if it does?"
Marinette bowed her head, "I have no idea."

A/N: As you can probably guess, I won't be including season 3 in the rest of the story, because then the story wouldn't be canon. So I hope you don't mind that. But I hope you enjoy it otherwise. Also, I'm probably going to be ending the story within the next couple of chapters. Please read, review, and share and I hope to see you all in the next chapter! MEOW!
