Thank you Purple Pendragon for the idea for the next few chapters. :)

Frustrated after trying to think of a good solution to her problem, Ladybug kicked the roof in her frustration, making her big toe hurt and further annoying her, she sped off into the night towards the Dupain-Cheng bakery. Not noticing a boy clad in black lurking in the shadows, watching her...

"I've been waiting to come back to this place for months since Hermes sent us here for our anniversary!" announced Percy, reaching for yet another blueberry macaroon in his mouth, prompting Annabeth to quickly smack his hand away from the plate. "Ow! That hurt!"

"Seaweed brain, Zeus didn't order for us to come here to eat pastries. Even if they are really tasty, we have a job to do."

The 9 demigods jumped as the door opened, the bell jangling noisily. To their surprise, Nico casually walked in. "That fast?" Jason asked, confusion evident on his face. "But we told you to come back after you found a demigod!" Nico smirked.

"I didn't expect to find one that quickly either. This one has a powerful aura. She's Ladybug, the superheroine of Paris."

"Oh, you mean that one? She is one hot chick-I mean (as Calypso glared at him) sh-she's not attractive at all. Uh, sure you are far prettier than her!"

" We should check if Chat Noir is a demigod too. The chances are pretty high, since they were chosen by the Guardian of the Miraculous himself." continued Annabeth. "We should get a better look at Hawkmoth to see if he looks like a threat. You can find out a lot by just a picture. And she pulled a photo out of her pocket. The others stared at it for a moment...and burst out laughing.

Tikki was worried about her holder. Marinette had screamed at her to go away when she tried to ask what was wrong and fell asleep with tears streaming down her cheeks. How long before she would crack? Take her life like previous Ladybug's had? Lila's threat had come true after all. The class had turned against her. Adrien soon could be hers. A week ago...

Marinette was just getting up to leave the cafeteria when Alya stormed up to her. "Give them back!" Alya had screamed, poking her finger in Marinette's face.

"Give wha-what back?" she had stammered. Then Alya had reached for the ladybug earrings, the miraculous. Tikki had actually been about to go to her holder's aid when the bluenette had shoved Alya away. "These are my earrings!" she had shouted back. "I can't believe you believe Lila over me, you best friend?" Alya's face turned red with rage. This was apparently the last straw for her. Marinette's best friend had yanked the friendship bracelet that she had worked so hard to make off her wrist and had thrown it to the ground, glass beads shattering into a million pieces. Her holder had ran off into the bathroom to cry, tears pouring down her face like a waterfall.

Never had Tikki seen Marinette so anguished before, her usually bright, merry bluebell eyes resembling the shattered beads of the bracelet. So vulnerable and fragile, she had worried that one single shake would break her.

Annabeth lay in bed that night, thinking about what a strange day she had had.

All of the campers were crowded around the campfire. The campfire burned bright orange, reflecting the moods of the campers, roasting marshmallows and singing. Annabeth felt a that moment the utmost content, leaning against her boyfriend Percy.

BOOM!

Hermes was suddenly standing on top of the remains of a fire. "Lord Zeus has ordered a quest!" he announced. " Annabeth Chase, Percy Jackson, Jason Grace, Thalia Grace, Hazel Levesque, Frank Zhang, Piper Mclean, Calypso, Nico di Angelo and Leo Valdez will go to Paris to help the heroes, Ladybug and Chat Noir defeat the supervillain Hawkmoth. Lord Zeus has ordered you go immediately without delay." And with that, he vanished, leaving about a hundred campers gaping in shock.

"Heroes!" Chiron shouted. " All of you, go back to your cabins except for the mentioned questers.(Questers? Is that even a word?)

And that's how Annabeth found herself and her friends catapulted into a dustbin behind the Eiffel Tower.
