Marinette fell to her knees, stunned and practically in shock. Several moments past before she felt warm streams of tears flowing down both sides of her face. No. She couldn't believe it, five years of loving Adrian, she would have done anything for him… and finally, she gathers up the courage to pour out her heart and soul to him… and his answer is no. She let out a loud painful yelp, before fully collapsing to the floor, letting the fluffy carpet engulf her face and adsorbent her tears. This was true heartbreak, she always thought she understood heartbreak and sorrow. Being ladybug she handled other peoples heartache nearly on a weekly bases, she thought she understood what they were feeling, but no, this pain was nothing like what she had imagined.

When Adrian just up and left, Luka bit his lip, fearing the worst, but now hearing Marinette's cries only confirmed it. Luka balled up his fist and punched the nearest thing to him, which thankfully was just a wall. "That ass hole rejected her" he growled

Alya ran into the kitchen, grabbed a pint of ice cream out of the freezer and two spoons before darting upstairs to comfort her best friend. The other girls followed after her. "We are gonna need more than just one," Rose said before throwing her purse at Max, "Go to whatever place is still open and get more ice cream, chocolates, fried chicken, and anything else you think might help" she practically barked before vanishing into Marinette's room.

Adrian was barely halfway down the street when his phone rang. He knew it was probably Luka or Alya calling, ready to chew him out. Prepared to be yelled at he dug his phone out of his pocket and was surprised to see the caller ID read Nathalie.

"It's the middle of the night, why is she calling?" he asked himself before answering the phone "Hello?"

"It has been released, be prepared to stop her, if you have the chance to take them, do it," Nathalie instructed, hanging up immediately after finishing her sentence.

"It has been released? What is she talking about… Wait if she knows who Father really is then she must be trying to say that Hawkmoth has-" he started before hearing screams of terror come from behind him. "… Akumatized someone"

Adrian quickly darted into an alley, transforming into Chat Noir. Jumping from rooftop to rooftop soon found the source of the screaming, Marinette's house. "Oh no Marinette, she must have been so upset she was vulnerable to Hawkmoth," he said to himself as he landed on her Balcony. His feet barely touched the ground before he was sent hurling backward and crashed into the side of a nearby building.

Shadows from every dark corner of the balcony stirred, moving from their natural settings to gather together on the railing, taking the form of a person, except for it was pitch black. A black fog seemed to seep from its skin as it moved. "He was supposed to be the one!" it growled in a distorted voice before breaking out into a disturbing laugh "But he's not! And now he will pay for what he's done! I will teach him to think twice before breaking a girl's heart!"

"Marinette wait! I didn't mean to- I mean I'm sure he didn't mean to break your heart" Chat Noir tried to reason, but only ended up getting thrown back again from a slice of darkness, hurled at him from the Shadow merely moving its arm out.

"You foolish cat" it laughed "You know nothing"

"You're the one who doesn't know anything!" Ladybug called out as she landed next to Chat, reaching out her hand she offered to help him up.

"Ladybug" he smiled and reached out for her, but just before their hands touched an image of Hawkmoth flashed into his head, making his smile vanish. Pulling his hand away he stood up on his own. "Marinette had her heart broken, looks like Hawkmoth took this chance to Akumatize her," Chat reported in a cold tone, refusing to make eye contact with her.

She looked at him confused but decided not to press it, assuming he was probably just ashamed he was just getting knocked on his ass before she arrived. "I hate to break it to you, but that's not Marinette- I know because I uhm… I already helped her escape before you got here" she quickly lied "Anyway, yeah that is Luka, a close friend of Marinette's."

"Luka?" he questioned and took a closer look at the shadowy figure, noticing that it did seem to have more masculine features than what someone like Marinette would give off.

"He broke her heart! He was supposed to make her happy! He was supposed to be the man of her dreams! But all he did was lead her on for years and then break her heart! Now I'm going to break him! After taking your Miraculous, Ladybug!" Luka yelled

Chat Noir heard a small sniffle and turned his head just in time to see Ladybug wipe a tear from her eye, and try to put back on a brave face. "My lady? Are you-"

"Let's just get this over with, I am really not in the mood for this tonight," she said, cutting him off. Stepping forward he threw her yo-yo in the air, calling out for her lucky charm. A flashlight landed in her hands. "A Flashlight? Of course!" pulling out the batteries she was going to give Adrian earlier she put them in the flashlight and turned it on, pointing it at the shadow. Luka screamed and hissed in agony. "Chat Noir now, the Akuma is in the amulet around his neck" she called out, making an educated guess since that was the necklace she gave him.

"On it!" Chat said and put his hand in the air activating his cataclysmic. "wait… what am I doing" he stopped, whispering to himself as he looked down at the darkness engulfing his paw. He was supposed to be on the other side now, so why was he still working with ladybug as if nothing has changed. It was just so natural to fight beside her, for a moment there he had forgotten everything and acted like everything was normal again. He glanced back up, looking at the shadow doing its best to hide from the light, then over to Ladybug, his partner, his lady, the love of his life, holding onto a poke doted flashlight with a smile on her face knowing this battle was already won. Taking a deep breath he ran forward and right as he was about to pass her he reached out to her, destroying her lucky charm instead of going for the object the Akuma was in.

As the flashlight turned to ash in her hands, she looked wide-eyed at Chat, completely shocked, before shaking it off and jumping over to her balcony, ripping the necklace off Luka's shadowy form before he had time to recover. Tearing it apart a black butterfly flew out, and she quickly captured and purified it. As soon as Luka returned to normal Ladybug locked her eyes onto Chat. "What was that about?!" She yelled over to him, now clearly pissed off.

Chat Noir stumbled backward, as Ladybug got closer "I… I'm sorry I… I slipped" he lied horribly.

Ladybug glared him down for a moment before her eyes turned soft and she smiled again. Kneeling down she picked up the ashes from her flashlight. "It's okay, just be more careful next time. Let's just be grateful it hit the flashlight and not actually me". Throwing the ashes in the air she sent out her ladybugs, making everything return back to normal.

Chat laughed nervously "Y-yeah, sorry I'll be more careful next time… uhm, pound it?" he asked, holding out his fist.

With a big smile, she held out her fist, tapping his "Pound it"
