What If Marinette figured out Alix's watch is a Miraculous?
Marinette was not having a stable day, she had to watch the bakery while her parents were having their anniversary lunch, she had homework to do, and she had to be at the Trocadero to bring the banner for Alix and Kim's bet. She had to transform into Ladybug to get there on time. Alix had given her new birthday present to Alya because she didn't want it to break. Alya gave it to Marinette to film the race. Being the clumsy self she is, almost dropped it, thankfully Adrien grabbed it just in time.
Adrien: Need any help?
Marinette: Uh... yup! Thanks. Gotta be careful! Even if you are amazing.
Adrien: Uh?
Marinette: At... holding things! In your hands. (Everyone is cheering)
Max: Last lap!
Alya: Amazing at holding things?
Marinette: (chatters)
Chloé: Adrikins, whatcha got there? Some super old case or something?
Adrien: Careful, it's Alix's!
Chloé: If it's Alix's, it's probably worthless.
Marinette: Give it back to Adrien, Chloé. (Chloé opens the watch and she gasps)
Chloe drops the watch in surprise and it rolls onto the track. Alix skates over it, but it doesn't break. Instead it flies back into Alya's hand.
Alix: Yeah! Hahaha!
Kim: I call a rematch. That false start back there threw me off!
Alya: What? How did your watch not break?
Alix: What do you mean?
Alya: What I mean is, I had to film the race, so I gave it to Marinette, Mari dropped it into Adrien's hands, then Chloe snatched it, opened it, then dropped it in surprise. You then skated over it, but no dent is even seen on it. If it were a normal watch, there would at least be some dents.
Alix: WHAT?! You guys are really irresponsible for other people's things, but that's so cool. My watch is indestructible.
Marinette: *whispers* I know exactly what that means, but that would mean revealing my secret identity.
With Adrien
Adrien: *whisper* That's totally a Miraculous.
Suddenly, Marinette's phone rings. Marinette sees it's her dad.
Marinette: Uh-oh, this can't be good. (accepts call) Hello, dad…
Tom: Mrs. Chamack is outside waiting to take her cake.
Marinette: Already? *hangs up* I uh, gotta go. A family friend is at the bakery waiting for her cake, I'll be right back.
Marinette quickly transforms to get home then detransforms before Chamack could see her.
Marinette: I'm here! *pants* Here, I'll get your cake
Nadia: Where were you?
Marinette starts packing the cake
Marinette: My friends needed me, and I wasn't expecting you for another 20 minutes.
Marinette finishes the packing and hands the cake to Nadia
Marinette: I'm sorry you waited.
Nadia: That's totally fine, you weren't expecting me till later, I should've told you I was arriving earlier.
Marinette: Have a good day!
Nadia walks away with her cake.
Marinette: Time to get back to my friends.
That night
Ladybug: Hey Cat Noir?
Cat Noir: What's on your mind m'lady?
Ladybug: Today I found what might be a Miraculous.
Cat Noir: Wait? Really? I thought the only Miraculous were ours and Hawkmoth's.
Ladybug: There is a possibility that there might be more.
Cat Noir: What makes you think it's a Miraculous? It could be a regular item.
Ladybug: The owner skated over the item and it didn't even dent. A Miraculous is indestructible.
Cat Noir: Should we tell the owner?
Ladybug: Maybe, we would have some more help. We haven't been doing this for long.
Cat Noir: Alright, who is the owner?
Ladybug: I don't know her name, but she has pink hair and has two pigtails on her sides. I saw it happen at the Trocadero.
Cat Noir: I think I saw her a few times. I believe she goes to Françoise Dupont. We could try getting her attention when she's on break.
Ladybug: See you tomorrow.
Cat Noir: See you tomorrow Bugaboo.
The next day
Kim: I bet you can't climb the dining wall.
Alix: Ugh, don't you remember? I beat you, you can't make any bets for the rest of the school year.
Kim: Ugh, I forgot. I will be running laps in the courtyard.
Kim leaves the Cafeteria and Alix looks at the potential dare and sees the two superheroes peering through the window. She gets big eyed. She points at herself then them. A quick nod from Cat Noir confirms her suspicions. Alix runs out of the school and over toward the heroes.
Alix: Y-you want to see me?
Ladybug: Calm down. Just act like we are classmates.
Alix: O-okay. So, why have you come to me?
Cat Noir: We have reason to believe that your new watch is a Miraculous.
Alix is even more shocked.
Alix: You're saying that my birthday gift is a Miraculous?
Ladybug: Do you have it?
Alix reaches inside her pocket
Alix: I do.
She gives the watch to Ladybug. When the watch goes into her palm, the watch changes into Miraculous form. And a kwami shoes up.
Fluff: What time will it be yesterday? Is it tomorrow already? When it'll be the day after tomorrow, it will have been yesterday again!
Alix: Woah! What are you?
Fluff: My name is Fluff, and I am the Kwami of time. Why am I awake?
Alix: My family has had this watch for centuries. After an accident with the watch, these two *she points to Ladybug and Cat Noir* figured out that the watch is a Miraculous.
Fluff: That means that I am your kwami.
Ladybug: Cat Noir and I want you to join our team.
Alix processes the last few minutes in her mind. Her watch is a Miraculous, she has a kwami - whatever that is- and Ladybug and Cat Noir want her to join the team.
Alix: Heck yeah! This is going to be awesome!
Cat Noir: See you on patrol. By the way, patrol is at nine.
Ladybug and Cat Noir jump away leaving an excited Alix standing beside the school.
MLB transition thing.
Scene: Alix's room.
Alix enters her room after roller skating at the roller rink. Looking at the time, it's almost nine, so she brings out her watch.
Alix: Alright, can you tell me how I do these superhero things?
Fluff: *nods* Your transformation words are Fluff, Clockwise! You have an umbrella as your weapon of choice. You have the power Burrow that allows you to travel through time by drawing a circle with your finger. After you use Burrow, you have 5 minutes before you transform back.
Alix: Got it. Fluff, Clockwise!
A/N: The transformation is the same as adult Alix, just as teenager Alix.
Right after transforming, a flash of sand everywhere is seen for a few seconds. She brushes it off as hallucinating. She admires how she looks before jumping out of the window of her room. She lands on top of nearby buildings, running and jumping from one building to the next.
Alix (hero): Wow! This brings a whole new rush that I've never felt before. This feels amazing!
Cat Noir comes out of nowhere and sees the excited new hero.
Cat Noir: Well well well. Looks like someone is excited for patrol.
Alix (hero): This feels awesome!
Cat Noir: I know right, it feels so liberating.
Alix frowns at that. Did Cat Noir not feel happy at home? Ladybug is seen jumping over buildings heading over towards her and Cat. She lands next to Cat Noir in a happy mood.
Cat Noir: So, what should Bugaboo and I call you?
Ladybug's face soured at the nickname while Alix looked over her costume for a bit before looking at her bunny-like ears.
Bunnyx: Call me Bunnyx.
Ladybug: Well Bunnyx, you ready to go on patrol?
Suddenly, screams are heard to the west of the heroes.
Cat Noir: Scratch that. Are you ready for your first akuma?
Bunnyx: Of course.
A/N: Skipping the fight because I am horrible at fights.
Alix jumps into her room, then detransforms. Another glimpse was seen, but this time it was a few seconds. The detransformation light was seen in a sandy village, then the vision started walking around the village. The vision stops
Fluff: ..lix. You okay? You just stood there for a few seconds.
Alix, now fully functioning, looks to her kwami.
Alix: Yeah, I'm good.
Alix lies down on her bed, ready to get some rest. Today was a surprising day. Her best day ever.
To be Continued…
A/N: Okay, after writing a 2nd What If? I have decided to compile all my what ifs into one story. Main reason: I wanted to set up a little mystery here, but I also want to continue writing more What Ifs.
