I love Chloé so much. I thought it only fitting that my first Miraculous fic be about her. Also, obviously the Vider District does not exist. I needed to come up with some place abandoned for the fight to happen in. Please enjoy!

When Chloé got up that morning, she never thought she'd be where she was now. She had expected to go to school, meet Sabrina on the way there, torture Marinette Dupain-Cheng a little bit and then sit through class on her phone, letting Sabrina take notes for her. She didn't think that she would be standing in the middle of a back alley watching Ladybug get her ass handed to her by an akuma.

Apparently, it was an akuma that Chloé herself had caused, even though she didn't know it. It was an insanely powerful one too, using its mind to create a giant fist that broke through the roof of the school to rip Chloé right out of her seat. It was muttering some generic backstory and motive as it carried her through Paris.

Ladybug and Chat Noir had finally come to her rescue as they were in an abandoned part of town. It had dropped Chloé from its massive fist and she was caught by Chat Noir. She could only watch as they fought. Chloé had the urge to run away but she stayed glued in place, watching the fight helplessly. She felt awful when she saw Chat get zapped by something and fade away.

Ladybug cried out in fear, becoming nervous now that her partner had disappeared. Her yo-yo was blasted out of her hand and she only turned to look at Chloé as she ran away from the akuma, trying to grab her yo-yo. Chloé picked it up and started running towards Ladybug to return it.

"Ladybug," Chloé screamed as the akuma raised its weapon to aim at Ladybug. It zapped her and she slowly started to fade, the yo-yo along with it.

"Chloé," Ladybug yelled as she began undoing her earrings. She got them undone and threw them at Chloé, the blonde catching them. She looked up to see Marinette Dupain-Cheng slowly fading away. Her heart dropped. Marinette Dupain-Cheng was Ladybug. "Chloé, you have to find the Miracle Box in my room! Hawkmoth can't get it! We're counting on you!"

And with that, Marinette was gone. The only remains of her being the earrings in Chloé's hands. The akuma set its sight on the mayor's daughter but before it could do anything, it ran away.

Chloé breathed a sigh of relief. It was over.

Wait. No it wasn't! Hawkmoth knew who Ladybug was now! He was on his way to her house to get...whatever a Miracle Box was. Chloé may not be fond of Marinette but she knew that Ladybug needed her. So even though it pained her to do so, she turned tail and began running towards Marinette's house. It was right by the school! But she was in some other part of Paris. Chloé called her butler immediately.

"Butler Jean! I'm in the Vider District of Paris! I'm on my way to the Tom and Sabine Bakery, I need to get there ASAP! Meet me on the way there and give me a ride."

She stayed on the phone, giving her butler directions as she ran down streets, heading in the direction that she knew the bakery was. Her butler arrived, picked her up and sped towards the bakery.

On the way there, the adrenaline began to die down and Chloé really wondered what she was doing. This had nothing to do with her! She wasn't responsible for that whatever box. If Hawkmoth got a hold of it, who cared. Chloé sighed. She did. She knew that Hawkmoth was evil and she knew that she was the only one who could prevent him from getting his hands on whatever Ladybug was hiding from him.

Chloé looked down at the earrings in her hand. She let out a sad breath. Ladybug and Chat Noir were gone. Her grip tightened around the earrings and she looked up at her butler.

"Hurry Jean!"

They arrived at the bakery and Chloé stepped out quickly, walking in to the establishment and trying to appear as normal as possible. She saw Marinette's parents at the counter.

Chloé really didn't think this through. How was she going to get into Marinette's room? She swallowed her spit and fondled the earrings in her hands. Time to improvise.

"Um, hi," Chloé greeted the two adults. They looked up, clearly startled to see her. "Uh, Marinette sent me to grab something from her room."

"Marinette sent...you," Tom asked, shocked.

Well, clearly Marinette had been talking about her. Chloé tried to ignore what that could insinuate and instead gave a gruntled sigh and cocked a hip out, her attitude slipping through.

"Yeah. She...she wanted me to put these earrings in her jewelry box and get her a new pair," Chloé told them, showing them the earrings in her hand. Tom and Sabine shared a look, a very confused look. They both just shrugged at each other however and gestured for Chloé to head back.

"Her room is the one with the hatch," Sabine informed Chloé as the girl walked into the house section of the bakery. She made her way up the stairs and through the house, finding the hatch and climbing up into it.

"God, so pink," Chloé mumbled as she eyed the room, trying to find what she was looking for. What did a Miracle Box even look like? Chloé began searching through all of the drawers and hidden cubbies in Marinette's room. She didn't know what she was searching for exactly but figured she'd know it when she saw it. But after rummaging through Marinette's room and practically destroying it, she came up empty.

Chloé stamped her foot in anger and let out a loud groan.

"Geez, Ladybug, you couldn't even tell me what it looked like?! What the hell is a Miracle Box anyway?!"

"Did you say Miracle Box?"

Chloé turned around sharply to see Pollen staring at her. The Bee Kwami was floating in front of her face.

"Pollen?! What are you doing here?!"

"You know about the Miracle Box and Ladybug, my queen" Pollen asked curiously.

"Yes! Ladybug sent me to get it! She's..." Chloé trailed off, her voice cracking when she finished, "she's gone. She left me these."

Chloé held up the earrings and Pollen's eyes widened. Chloé continued. "Hawkmoth knows who she is now. She told me to get the Miracle Box from her room and that Hawkmoth couldn't get it. But I don't even know what I'm looking for!"

Chloé stomped again. Pollen giggled and then moved over to a box with Marinette's initials and signature print on it.

"I already looked there, it's just filled with containers," Chloé retorted, crossing her arms. She watched as Pollen opened it and pressed on the containers in a certain order, revealing a secret compartment with a Ladybug-patterned thing on the inside. That had to be it.

"Thanks, Pollen," Chloé encouraged. "What is it?"

"The Miracle Box is where all of the Miraculous are stored! This is where we live. Ladybug is the Guardian of it now. If Hawkmoth gets the Miracle Box, he would have infinite power and he would be able to steal the Ladybug and Black Cat Miraculous."

Chloé gulped. She was holding a big responsibility in her hands. She almost considered putting it back. But there was no way she could let Hawkmoth win. She wasn't like that anymore. Ladybug - no Marinette - was counting on her.

She heard a car screech and looked out of Marinette's window to see a limo pulling up. It was an Agreste limo. Gabriel and Nathalie stepped out.

"Uncle Gabriel? What's he doing here," Chloé asked out loud. She saw Pollen shrug out of the corner of her eye. She watched as Tom and Sabine came out to meet them. They were having some sort of conversation and everything clicked when she saw Gabriel point to Marinette's room. He looked up to see Chloé in the window. He glared at her. She knew that look. She knew that face.

"Hawkmoth!"

"We have to get you out of here," Pollen exclaimed. She pressed one of the black spots on the box and the hair comb that Chloé knew all too well came sliding out. Chloé quickly put it in her hair.

"Let's go! Pollen, buzz on!"

Three of the four adults below didn't notice Queen Bee swinging off of the Dupain-Cheng rooftop. Gabriel, however, did.
