So this is a genderswap AU requested from Shiranai Atsune, one of many and I had some fun with this. I don't know how many chapters I'll do but I'll definitely try and keep up on this one. Sorry for my gap in updates on my other stories I will be trying to update them all but there is still a lot for me to do with school starting up. I do not own any characters or really this idea I just own the way I write and portray characters. I am sorry for Chat's lack of puns I'm not very good at them and I'll try harder to capture her personality in the next chapters. Hope you enjoy my take on the genderswap! :)

Magnus couldn't help but stare off into space as his teacher, Mr. Bustier explained once again what the procedure was for an Akuma attack. They went through this lecture every month now because there had been too many times that he hadn't covered his tracks and they found him missing. Andy had tried as much as he could, but there was only so much a guy's best friend could do. Besides, he didn't really have to pay attention because he was never here anyway.

"Mr. Dupain-Cheng, care to explain what would happen if the hallway to the basement is ever blocked in an attack?"

Just great, he growled to himself. "Once the path is blocked we will be forced to exit the school and head to the safe house in the stadium. If that road were to be blocked as well we will have to go to the town hall."

Mr. Bustier nods in approval, "very good. Mr. Bourgeois, what will you all do if you are separated from me?"

"Praise the Akuma and go home?" He says haughtily, getting a high five from his best friend.

Mr. Bustier rubs his temple, "you may think this is funny, Mr. Bourgeois, but we have already had far too many lost students during an Akuma attack that we can't risk anyone goofing off." Magnus felt like that sentence was directed at him, even though Cody didn't answer correctly.

"Yes, Miss Agreste?"

Magnus's heart skipped a beat as the name of his forever crush, Adaline Agreste, answered the question. "We're supposed to find the nearest adult or police officer and request their help in either finding you or getting to the nearest safe location."

Andy poked him in the ribs and wiggled his eyebrows at him, but all Magnus did was shove him away before the bell rang. "Alright class, Mrs. D'Argencourt is absent today so you will have study hall with the rest of the class in the library."

Magnus picked up his bag but almost choked when Andy wraps his arm around his neck. "Soooooo, are you going to use this chance to talk to Adaline?"

Magnus scoffs, "yeah right. The most I'll ever do with her is maybe get out a sentence without sounding like a total buffoon."

His best friend shrugs, "you never know. Me and Nina happened on accident, maybe you and Adaline will too."

"The only 'accident' I will ever get with Adaline is tripping over my big feet in front of her. She's the daughter of my favorite fashion designer Gabrielle Agreste and not only that, but she's a model, super smart, and a really great person. I could lose to literally anyone in this class seeing as I'm dumb, clumsy, awkward, and not a people person."

Andy only lets out a sigh before bringing Magnus down farther so he was near his level. "All I'm saying dude, is maybe try and speak with her. I'm not talking a full convo, just a simple 'hey' can get a girl thinkin' about ya. Just try it, try even sitting next to her during study hall. Before another Akuma attacks and ruins your timing."

Magnus groans as they walk into the library. Mrs. Damocles was in charge of the library while their librarian took a leave of absence, and that always meant a horrible seating chart where Magnus was forced to sit between Cody and Sam, two of the chattiest guys he'd ever met. "Now let's see…Nina, you sit here, Kim right next to her, Maxine across from her, Alex sit on Kim's other side, Alice next to Alex, Cody across from Alice, Sam next to him. Adaline next to Nina on this other table, Magnus next to her…" All other words didn't matter as Magnus's ears took in only the necessary information. He was going to sit next to Adaline. He felt like he was already starting to hyperventilate.

With a thumbs up from Andy and a deep breath, Magnus took his seat next to Adaline, who was reading a thick textbook that was probably assigned by her mother. All he ever got about Adaline was what he heard from Cody, who could never shut up and always talked about her. Magnus had never had the guts to say hi, especially after that embarrassing day that Adaline gave him her umbrella and it shut on top of him. The dark-haired boy stole a glance at the blonde beauty until she caught him and he looked away really quickly. "Hey," she whispers and it almost gave Magnus a heart attack.

"Y-yeah?" Magnus stutters.

"I like your earrings, not many guys I know have piercings."

Magnus touches the jewels self-consciously, his Miraculous changed into circular black jewels once he put them in, just in case anybody caught onto the fact that Magnus and Ladybug were both guys with red and black earrings. "Uh y-yeah, I just thought it would be kinda cool, ya know?"

Adaline smiles, "totally. I've never met a guy that's so comfortable with something like that. My mom would love you."

"R-really? Your mom is like, my idol!" Of course, he got too loud, so Mr. Damocles shushes him.

Adaline chuckles drily, "yeah, I get that a lot."

Magnus quickly tries to backtrack, it was going so well a few seconds ago. "No no, I'm sorry. I mean she's the reason I design, but my biggest inspiration is…the world around me." What's a good way to tell your crush that they're the biggest inspiration for doing what you do?

"Really? I've never seen any of your designs, but from the way that Andy describes them they sound really good. I'm sure my mother would be thrilled to see them." Magnus's face lights up like a storefront window.

"O-oh I don't think they're that good."

Adaline cocks her head, "don't most artists or designers think they're not good? Would you mind if I took a look at them?"

Magnus's eyes widen, "I-I don't have my sketchbook with me." Liar.

The girl smiles, "that's ok. Would you mind if I came to your house after school? You could show me then."

Alarms went off in Magnus's head. He had posters up of all of Adaline's shoots, commercials, and merchandise covering his room. Not to mention several sketchbooks of designs centered around clothes she wore. If she saw all of that, she would be mortified and think that Magnus was a creep. "I uh, I mean yeah I-I think you could but uh, I have t-to help a little in the bakery after school so uh, if you wanted to come over, oh I don't know, maybe around dinner my parents would be happy to cook for you."

Just as Adaline opened her mouth to reply, the Akuma alarms went off. Both teens' heads shot up to look at the TV's that would automatically turn onto the news when an Akuma attacked. "Breaking News, a new Akumatized villain, calling himself Warlock, is beginning to magically hold people captive to watch his magic show."

The screen flips to an image of a man in a long purple coat, purple top hat, and a cane in the background, with a scared reporter in the foreground. "Thanks, Nadia. I'm here live in Downtown Paris where the Warlock is zapping people with his cane, making them begin to levitate. We're not quite sure what his final plan is, but he claims people will finally watch him. Back to you, Nadia."

"The police have done everything they can to try and stop this villain as he makes his way through the city…" Magnus stops listening as he slowly gets up from the table and backs away into the shelves before running out the doors to the bathroom.

Once he's sure he's alone, he opens his jacket to allow Tikki to fly out. "Ok Tikki, we have to stop the Warlock in time for my date-uh I mean, hang out or whatever with Adaline tonight."

Tikki giggles, "don't worry Magnus this'll be a piece of cake. I was listening to the news, and his Akuma seems to be in his cane."

"I don't know what I'd do without you Tikki. Alright, spots on!"

In a flash of black and red spots, Magnus's normal stress clothes are transformed into a black and red suit. The suit clung to him, outlining his muscular form in a way his normal clothes wouldn't allow. The suit was red with black spots around his middle and legs, but the turtle neck was black, with the dark color flowing down his shoulders and arms. Red and black spotted gloves met the pure place at the middle of his forearm, and after ending in a deep V in the middle of his chest and back, red with black spots takes over for the majority of his middle and legs, only interrupted at his hips with a low hanging black belt and a yo-yo. His boots were pure black as well, but his domino mask was red with black spots as if anybody needed a reminder of his signature colors. His normally flat and carefully styled black hair was tousled and thrown up in a magically kept up-do. He has to admit, he looked pretty damn good in this suit, but he didn't have time to ogle himself as he took out his yo-yo and flung himself out the window.

The whole weekend had gone without incident for the first time in 4 months, and Magnus had started to question what was wrong. Now, that he was swinging and running across building tops with the wind in his hair, he couldn't help but feel a small amount of guilt over how much he missed this.

He halted on the rooftop of the Capitol, waiting for Cat Noir to show up. When she did, they would go through a possible plan on how to deal with the Warlock. "Well isn't this just a purr-fect picture?"

Ladybug huffs and turns to see the woman in the black suit leaning on his baton. Her leather suit fit her just as well as Ladybug's own latex one. Amplified every curve, especially with the tight lopsided belt that rested on her hips. A bell sat at the apex of her throat, and her long blonde hair was set high on her head, though her curls still reached the middle of her back and her black domino mask outlined her dark green eyes. She was beautiful, and Ladybug would be interested if he wasn't already in love with Adaline. "Cat Noir, glad you could join me."

The heroine slinks up to him and traces a finger down his chest as she chuckles once, "nothing could keep me away."

Ladybug pulls away as he shook his head, "you never know when to quit."

"Mhm, curiosity killed the cat, my Ladybug, but this pretty kitty's got nine lives that she would love to spend on you."

Ladybug turns away from the woman, so used to her lines that they didn't phase him anymore. "This Warlock, my kwami already suggested that the Akuma is in his cane since that's what he uses to cause the levitation."

Cat Noir sighs behind him before coming to stand equal to him on the Capitol roof's edge. "That would make sense, but if it's not, I got nips on the hat."

Ladybug huffs, "couldn't help yourself?"

Cat Noir smiles brilliantly, "how could I?"

The male hero shakes his head, "I have no idea. Alright, I have an idea, I want to see if the people that levitate can be weighed down and if they can, then we can't use them for you to get to him to grab his cane and we'll have to rely on your baton. My yo-yo can't be of much use in an open area like this, and Hawkmoth must've foreseen that. Let's get to a more hidden part of the city to test it, you ready?"

Cat Noir was already running across the roof in the opposite direction, she looks over his shoulder as her baton extends and sends her shooting through the air, "try to keep up Ladybug!"

With a chuckle, Ladybug throws his yo-yo and it flies past Cat Noir to attach to a chimney stack, and when he pulls, the yo-yo retracts and pulls him quickly over the rooftops, coming up directly behind what Cat Noir once again launches herself away from him. "Too slow!"

They treated it like a game of tag, Cat Noir always one step ahead of Ladybug as they went across the city to safely test Ladybug's theory. When they make it to a party house where the Warlock was first transformed, they find his first victims still floating. "Are you all alright?" Ladybug shouts up to them.

"Ladybug and Cat Noir! We're saved!" Yelled one of the adults, causing the crowd of people to erupt into cheering.

The two heroes glance at each other before shrugging and looking at all of the victims. Ladybug throws his yo-yo and it attaches around the legs of one of the men, while Cat Noir uses her long tail-like belt to wrap around the feet of another man. They both pull, easily guiding the people towards them. "Well, at least we got them out of the street." Cat Noir says as they unbind the citizens. "Ooh! What if we go to like a party store and get some balloon string to tie them all to the ground!"

Ladybug nods, "good idea, that way we won't have to find out if another zap from the Warlock's ray could either send them higher or send them hurtling to the ground when we fight. Here, you work on gathering everyone and I'll go and get the string."

"Aye aye, Captain." She even throws in a little salute and wink as he leaves.

When they finish tying everyone around the city down, they turn their attention to the center of town where the Warlock was still finding more people to zap. "We need to get that cane from him." Cat Noir reminds him as they once again stand on the Capitol roof.

"I know, so since I can't grab it very well, I'll have to distract him, I'll try and keep his attention without getting zapped while you sneak up behind him and grab the cane, alright? Once you break it, I'll capture it and de-evilise it."

Cat Noir dons a thoughtful look and Ladybug raises an eyebrow, "what?"

"I didn't know that de-evilise was even a word until I met you."

Ladybug groans and jumps off the roof, "just stick to the plan!" He calls as he lands easily on the pavement. "Hey! Warlock!" The villain turns and glares in the hero's direction. "Heard you were looking for a captive audience, I'll do if you want."

"Where's your little girlfriend? Too busy licking herself?"

Ladybug shivers in disgust, "ew dude don't even go there! That's so gross! I don't wanna think of my partner that way!"

Warlock narrows his eyes, "then give me your Miraculous, and you won't have to think about her ever again!" He thrust his cane at Ladybug, but before the beam of light even came, the hero was gone from his previous spot.

The villain looked around wildly before a shrill whistle drew his attention up. "I don't think that's going to happen, but I'll at least entertain you until my partner finishes up."

Warlock grits his teeth, but he straightens unnaturally as his face gains a purple tint in the shape of a butterfly. Ladybug nods once at Cat Noir and she extends her baton to try and grab the cane, but he comes out of it just in time to get her in the stomach with it. Ladybug launches his yo-yo and catches her before she hits the ground, and pulls her back to him. When the yo-yo releases, Cat Noir falls into his arms, and she's coughing and holding her stomach. "Are you alright?"

Cat Noir tries to give him a nonchalant laugh but flinches. "You know me, Bugaboo. Fight fang and claw until I win. I'll be fine."

Ladybug sets her carefully on her feet and the woman gains her breath back before straightening. "Now what kind of man hits a lady?" She calls to the villain.

"We all know you're not just a little kitten, Cat Noir." The villain retorts.

Ladybug's grits his teeth, "even for a villain you're a little too disrespectful ya know."

The Warlock scoffs, "the greatest villain in history was never nice to women, why should I be? Everyone will just be another member of my audience it won't matter what gender they are! All over the world people will watch my act and there's nothing they can do!"

"Oh, we'll see about that! LUCKY CHARM!" Black and red spots exploded from the sky as an underwater diving suit lands in Ladybug's arms. "Oh, you've got to be kidding me!"

Cat Noir looked between Warlock and Ladybug before her eyes lit up, she grabbed the suit and leaped to the next roof. "Hey, Warlock! Why don't you try that little cane out on me! I bet it's almost out of juice!"

"How dare you, you little mongrel!" Cat Noir launches herself off the roof towards the villain, and when the beam almost hits her, she uses the suit to catch it.

The force of the suit being forced upwards delayed the drag as Cat Noir jumps from the suit and tackles the Warlock out of the air. Ladybug lands right next to her and snatches the cane from the Warlock before he could recover. When he snapped it over his knee, a black and purple butterfly floated out. "No more evil-doing for you little Akuma, time to de-evilise!" After catching the little Akuma, the yo-yo opened again to reveal a pure white butterfly.

"Bye-bye, little butterfly." Cat Noir finished as she stood up next to Ladybug.

"Miraculous Ladybug!" Ladybug threw the suit into the air and ladybugs flew through the air.

Within moments, everyone had been released from the ropes and any damage the Warlock caused by misfires was rectified. "Well, all's well that ends well." Cat Noir smiles brightly.

Ladybug holds up his fist and Cat Noir bumps it with her own, "pound it."

Ladybug's earrings start to beep and he sighs, "well I've gotta go."

Cat Noir smiles and lightly nudges him in the side with her elbow, "sure thing boss, you know, I think we make a pretty fur-midable team."

Ladybug can't help but snort, "you're insufferable."

Ladybug throws his yo-yo so it launches him over the rooftops, leaving Cat Noir to watch after him. "Goodbye, my love." She whispers to the wind.
