Chapter 10: A Special Christmas
Disclaimer: I do not own Miraculous: Tales of Ladybug and Chat Noir or anything associated with it. I only own Allison, Efa, Henry and any other things associated with her.
Same rules as Cosette apply, since this episode is a Musical Episode.
If you see something that looks like this, it means that whoever the character was, they were thinking. It's be stated.
If it looks like this, they were singing... or sing-talking. (Their initials would be stated at the side to be clear.)
Allison stepped out of the plane with a small smile, running a hand through her hair.
Henry walked out beside her, patting her back. "Let's go home, so you can surprise your boyfriend."
Allison laughed, shaking her head and pulling her leather jacket closer to her body.
"Gotta say, LA Fashion does not suit well with Paris' Winter." Allison snorted.
"Because who in her right mind would go out in snow in only a leather jacket and boots." Henry snorted and shoved her forward.
Allison rolled her eyes as Henry haled a cab.
"Why can't you just walk home?" Allison asked. "It's like two streets away."
"Because I'm too lazy." Henry retorted, entering the car. "Now, go to you boyfriend."
Allison laughed as the cab drove away.
Efa poked out from inside her jacket.
"LA's fun, Ally!" Efa giggled. "When do we go back?"
"Next summer." Allison grinned. "I might try dragging Adrien along."
Efa let out a little giggle before going back inside Allison's jacket.
Allison exited the airport and started to walk to Adrien's, fumbling with her passport.
Her phone rang, and it poked out of her pocket due to Efa pushing it.
Allison giggled as she answered. "Hello?"
"Allison?"
"Oh, hi Natalie." Allison smiled, hearing the voice of the Agreste's secretary. "Happy Christmas!"
"You, too." She replied. "Listen, I know you're in America right now, but there's a problem with Adrien."
Allison stopped walking, bumping into Henry.
Henry turned around and glared, before stopping at her worried face.
"What's wrong with Adrien?" Allison asked nervously.
"He's missing." Natalie confessed. "We went to his room and found the window open, and him gone."
Allison shook her head. Must've went Chat Noir.
"Was there any reason on why he could've done this?" Allison asked as she looked around the streets.
"He was upset at his father," Natalie replied. "something about not spending holidays with him."
"I'm actually in Paris." Allison revealed. "would've surprised Adrien. I'll try to look for him."
Natalie let out a hum of agreement. "Keep in touch, Allison. If there's anyone he would listen to, It'd be you."
"Of course." Allison replied. "Stay safe, bye."
As she hung up the phone, she sighed
"He ran away again." She said to Efa who poked her head out of Allison's jacket.
"I'd be happy to help." Efa said.
"Thank you." Allison smiled. "Efa, let's fly."
Phoenix flew around Paris for a while, finally landing in central park.
"Efa, let's land." She said grimly.
Efa bounced out of her pendant, shivering slightly.
"Sorry, honey." Allison smiled sadly, wrapping Efa in her handkerchief and giving her some spare chocolate she found in her pocket.
Efa gave her a light smile and hid inside her jacket.
Allison continued walking around, freezing at the sight of Ladybug in the middle of the park.
L: The only explanation, my speculation, is that some supervillain is after Adrien.
Allison was about to step away and leave her be, but what she heard next made her freeze in place.
L: It's a good thing I'm here. I'll protect him without fear, this boy that I secretly love.
Allison's jaw dropped open in suprise as she ran to the post where Adrien's poster was supposed to be.
L: And with all of my might, I'll save you tonight. You're the boy that I secretly love.
Allison kept on staring as Ladybug twirled around the park, unaware of the eyes watching her every move.
L: If you never know what's true, I'll be there for you. You're the boy that I secretly love.
She turned her back on the post.
L: But what would you do, if you knew what's true?
She turned back and looked at the broken post.
L: That's why I so secretly love you.
"Woah." Allison said just as Ladybug finished her last note.
Ladybug screeched, taking a few steps back in surprise.
"All-Alli-son. Allison. Martin. Hi." Ladybug smiled nervously.
Allison shot her an amused smile. "Hey."
"What are you? doing? here? in Paris?"
"I was here to surprise Adrien." Allison laughed. "but he went missing, and I'm looking for him, and I see you secretly love him?"
Ladybug burst out into nervous laughter. "What? No? That's ridiculous-Are you angry?"
Allison shook her head. "It's fine. I understand, he's a celebrity."
"So are you," Ladybug said. "and he's so lucky to have such an understanding girl."
Allison shook her head with a smile.
"Now," Ladybug said, changing the topic. "who would be akumatized on a Christmas evening?"
"Akumatized?" Allison asked. "Someone's been akumatized?"
"I think so," Ladybug nodded. "Why else would Adrien be out of his house so suddenly on Christmas?"
Allison snorted. I can think of a few reasons.
Ladybug faced her. "Be careful on your search."
At Allison's nod, she threw her yoyo and swung somewhere else.
Efa poked her head out of Allison's jacket. "Why was she singing?"
Allison giggled, shrugging as she continued walking.
Allison rounded on a corner and sighed in relief as she saw Adrien walking.
He was in his normal clothes and he was wearing a Christmas cap, but he looked cold.
"Adrien!" She called out, running as she saw him.
"Allison!" He smiled, opening his arms.
Allison wrapped her arms around him as soon as she got close.
"Adrien, we were all so worried." Allison huffed as she pulled away. "Where were you?"
"I needed to cool off." Adrien smiled apologetically. "I was pretty frustrated at my dad."
"You had a bit to much cooling off." Allison muttered as she held his hands. "You're so cold."
"I'm fine." He smiled as he laid a kiss on her lips.
Allison smiled as she kissed back.
He pulled away and swung an arm around Allison. "I got to find Plagg something to eat first, though."
"I have a few more of Efa's chocolate," Allison said. "and he can stay with Efa. My jacket's kinda cozy."
Plagg shot out of Adrien's hat and into Allison's jacket.
Adrien let out a small laugh, kissing Allison's temple as they walked.
"Why are you here, anyway?" He asked. "I thought you were visiting your family in America."
"I wanted to come here for a short while." Allison said. "A surprise for you, is that okay?"
"It's perfect." He smiled, kissing her lips once more. "I missed you."
"I missed you, too." Allison laughed.
"Hohoho!"
The couple looked in front of them.
Adrien started smiling widely at Santa Claus
He, however, started frowning when kids around Santa started to insult him and his gifts.
The kids pulled on Santa's beard and throwing snowballs at the man.
"Hey!" Allison said as she ran forward with a glare, followed by Adrien. "Seriously?"
"What's wrong with you?" Adrien huffed at the kids, helping Santa up. "Even if he's not the real one, what would Santa think of your behavior?"
The kids immediately stopped, embarrassed by the fact that they're being reprimanded by two celebrities.
"The young man's absolutely right, kids. Say sorry, right now." The kid's father demanded.
They apologized and ran away.
Allison rolled her eyes and picked up the fallen Santa hat, and giving it to the man. "Are you alright, sir?"
"I'm fine." He said. "Don't worry, the two of you. I'm a tough old Santa."
"Still, it isn't right for them to do that." Allison said.
Adrien smiled over at Allison and put a hand on the small of her back.
"Now, what are you two doing out here at this time of night? Are you lost?" He asked, facing them with a teasing smile. "A small lover's stroll, perhaps?"
"You could say that." Allison giggled, looking over at Adrien, who gave her a playful glare.
Santa pulled out a big red blanket and draped it over Adrien. "You're not exactly dressed for the cold weather, young man."
Adrien smiled widely.
"Would the two of you like some hot chocolate?" Santa asked as she rummaged around his sleigh. "I've got some left."
Plagg poked out of Allison's jacket, giving Adrien a stern look.
"Well, we'd love some, sir." Allison laughed. "but do you have a slice of Camembert?"
"Well, you're in luck." Santa said, pulling out a sandwich. "I've still got some sandwich left over. One of the smelliest cheese I could come across."
He gave Allison a slice of Camembert, then turned around once more.
"That smells perfect." Allison said, grimacing at the smell of the cheese.
Allison shoved the slice over to Plagg, who ate the slice in one bite.
Santa, then, proceeded to invite Allison and Adrien over to ride in his sleigh.
They both received cups of hot chocolate.
While Adrien conversed with Santa, Allison called Natalie.
"Natalie, hey. It's Allison." Allison said to the phone. "I found Adrien, we're on our way home."
"I'll inform Mr. Agreste." Natalie said, sighing in relief. "I'll see the two of you soon."
The call ended, and Allison would've hid her phone if it wasn't for her hearing over Adrien and Santa's conversation.
"And this girl?"
"One of the best things that happened to me, sir." Adrien said, and Allison could feel his eyes on her.
At this, Allison closed her eyes and hummed, still pretending to be talking to her phone.
"Don't loose her, son." Santa said. "Seems like a great girl."
"She is." Adrien agreed. "I hope she would've met my mom."
Allison's heart melted as she pretended to hang up her phone, smiling over at Adrien.
Adrien smiled back at her.
"Well, Adrien, your father must be wondering where you are." Santa said.
"I doubt he is." Adrien said.
"He probably is." Allison butted in.
"I suppose."
Santa brightened up. "I'll take you there on my sleigh."
He jumped over the barrier and proceeded to take the reigns.
He put his cap back on, but stopped when it went limp on his head due to the melting snow.
Adrien laughed, slinging an arm over Allison.
He looked over at Allison with a questioning look, rightening up at her nod.
"Here, put this on." Adrien smiled, taking off his cap. "A friend gave it to me, she'd want you to have it."
"A present? For me?" Santa said in surprise.
"Well," Allison smiled. "everyone deserves a Christmas Present."
"Thank you." He smiled, putting on the cap.
He started to make the sleigh go, and with one last look at Adrien's smile and Allison's grin, they were off.
"Where would you be spending this Christmas?" Adrien said to Allison as she cuddled into him.
"I was hoping to spend it at yours," Allison said, looking up at him. "if it's okay."
"It's perfect." Adrien smiled widely, pecking her lips.
He looked over at Santa. "How about you, sir? Where would you be spending Christmas?"
"I have the whole of Paris. The whole world, even!"
Adrien sighed. "All by yourself, huh?"
Santa didn't reply.
"Alright, here's what we're going to do." Adrien said, putting down his cup of hot chocolate. "Take me back home, and have Christmas with us! We need you to get the Christmas spirit back into our home."
Allison looked at shocked eyes.
Her heart melted at Adrien's sincere smile. Can this boy get anymore perfect?
"Alright, then. but I can't stay for too long." Santa replied happily. "You do know Santa's very busy at Christmas time."
Adrien shot him a grateful smile. "Thank you."
Once they reached the Agreste mansion, Adrien ran over to the doorbell.
A camera appeared, focusing on Adrien's face.
"Adrien, is that you?" Mr. Agreste's voice rasped out from the intercom. "Where's Allison?"
"Right here, Mr. Agreste." Allison replied, appearing beside Adrien.
The camera focused on Santa, who stood behind them. "and, who are you?
"Me? I'm Santa Claus!"
"And I'm the Easter Bunny." Mr. Agreste laughed sarcastically. "You're here for money, I suppose? I'll get my bodyguard to deal with you!"
Adrien looked annoyed as he forced the camera back to his face.
"No." Adrien said. "You're wrong, father!"
"No, he's not!" Ladybug said, appearing behind him.
"You have got to be kidding me." Allison muttered.
"Your father's got the right idea." Ladybug said, determined. "He's a supervillain under Hawkmoth's control."
"Oh my God." Allison groaned.
"What?" Adrien asked, wide-eyed in disbelief at Ladybug.
"You're all totally crazy!" Santa shouted as he ran towards his sleigh.
"Santa, wait!" Allison shouted, but Ladybug shot her yoyo towards him.
"Ladybug, stop!" Adrien called in panic. "That man hasn't been akumatized!"
"I know when I'm looking at an akuma victim, trust me."
"No, you don't." Allison replied. "He's not akumatized."
"Yes, he is." Ladybug replied, flinching when he heard the sleigh leave.
She faced the two again. "You're safe now, go on home."
Before any of them could do anything else, she shot her yoyo and chased after the sleigh.
"Plagg-"
"Adrien, Allison."
Allison and Adrien turned around to see Natalie and his bodyguard.
Adrien growled, grasping Allison's wrist and dragging her inside.
"Where are you going, Adrien?"
"To my room, of course." Adrien muttered. "My father isn't celebrating Christmas."
"Of course he is, Adrien." Natalie said. "Your father came to see you, but you'd gone out. I'll tell him you're waiting for him."
The bodyguard went over to them, putting a hand on Adrien's shoulder.
"Just to make sure you stay in your room this time."
Adrien lay on his bed, Allison curled up beside him.
He ran his hand on Allison's hair.
Allison's head was buried in his chest as his eyes focused on the falling snow outside his window.
"He's really going to celebrate Christmas with me this year?" Adrien muttered.
"Of course, he is." Allison said, raising her head. "He's not as heartless as you think he is."
Adrien gave her a small smile. "Thank you for always being there for me."
Allison gave him a small smile, leaning in and pressing her lips on his.
Adrien put his hand on her face, maneuvering himself on top of her.
He pulled away and pressed his forehead on hers.
"I love you, Allison."
"I love you, too."
Adrien leaned down and kissed Allison once again.
Allison reached up and ran her hands through his hair.
Then, there was a loud bang.
Adrien turned around in surprise, staying still on top of Allison and caging her in.
"Santa Claus?" Allison asked, trying to get a good look.
He looked more like the grinch, with his green skin.
He had pointy teeth, which showed when he smiled maliciously.
"Not exactly." He replied as he leaned in to the couple with a small smile.
Adrien pulled Allison closer as he sat the both of them up in his bed.
Santa: I am Santa Claws. I'm a rebel with a cause.
Allison narrowed her eyes. "Is he... dabbing?"
"I think so." Adrien said in confusion. "Why is he singing?"
"Why is everyone singing tonight?" Allison muttered under hear breath.
Santa: I'll punish and I'll give you a fright.
Santa reached inside his sleigh and pulled out a red gift.
Santa: Have a horrible Christmas night!
He tossed the gift over to Adrien's bodyguard, which dissolved into a lot of spiders which crawled around.
Adrien pushed Allison away from his bed, following as he backed her away.
Adrien's bodyguard ran to a corner.
Adrien's grip tightened on Allison's waist as she looked up at Santa.
"I'll do you two no harm, Adrien. I'm in your debt!" Santa smiled. "You two gave me a present, and that I won't forget."
Allison looked up at his Santa hat, pursing her lips.
"In fact, I'll avenge the both of you." Santa said, determined as he stirred the reindeer away. "I'll avenge us three!"
Adrien's jaw was slacked open as Santa drove out of his room.
"This will be the Christmas of Revenge!"
Allison and Adrien looked at each other, then to Adrien's bodyguard who ran out of Adrien's room.
"Plagg, claws out!"
While Adrien transformed, Allison stared at the spot where Santa was.
"Why was he dabbing?" Allison blinked over at Adrien, who stood in his Chat Noir suit.
"Allison, just transform."
"Efa, let's fly!"
"So cold." Phoenix huffed as she flew over to Ladybug who was running on a roof.
"It's just the two of us, Santa Claws." Ladybug was muttering.
"Three." Phoenix waved as she flew beside Ladybug.
"Four of us, milady." Chat chuckled as he appeared, running beside Ladybug.
"Chat Noir? Phoenix? Where were you?" Ladybug asked, facing Chat Noir. "What happened to Adrien?"
"It's a long story. Cats have their secrets, too, you know?"
Ladybug nodded, shooting her yoyo towards Santa's sleigh.
Chat followed suit as he launched himself over with his stick.
Phoenix just rolled her eyes and flew over.
The three of them landed on the sleigh's back seat with glares on their faces.
"Who's gonna deliver presents to the children now, Santa Claws?" Chat asked in a monotone voice.
"There are no more presents!" Santa Claws growled. "No more spirit of Christmas!"
Santa Claws pulled out a present, throwing it over. "You should've been good!"
The present hit Chat Noir, who flailed and hit Ladybug and the both of them fell.
"I've been good all year round!" Chat called out as Ladybug simply screamed.
"Why is it always him?" Phoenix huffed as she launched herself off of the sleigh and swooped over to save Chat and Ladybug.
Ladybug held on to Phoenix's arm while Chat attached himself to her waist.
"You're too attached to your girlfriend." Ladybug rolled her eyes as she shot her yoyo to the back of Santa's sleigh.
"How about a nice little sleigh ride, my little wretched elves?" Santa asked, smirking.
Ladybug's grip tightened on Phoenix's arm just as Chat and Phoenix tightened their hold on each other.
"Here we go." Phoenix gulped.
The sleigh started to zoom every which way, in various directions and multiple loops.
They screamed even more when Santa started to throw exploding presents at them.
"I'll try to stop the sleigh." Ladybug said. "Phoenix stay put incase one of us falls. Chat, deal with Santa Claws."
The two nodded and Phoenix flew over to drop Chat.
"Wait, drop me from a few feet above." Chat said.
"Why?"
"Surprise attack."
"If this fails, I swear." Phoenix huffed and flew up a few more feet.
She dropped him and he screamed, holding his stick above his head.
He slammed the stick down on Santa, but he was deflected with a present, which turned out to be a sword.
"Oh no." Phoenix started to zoom down as Chat deflected Santa's hits.
The sleigh lurched when Ladybug landed on one of the reindeers.
Santa was about to fall, but Chat held onto his wrist.
Phoenix landed on the sleigh and held onto Santa's wrist, helping him up.
"Thank you!" Santa said and threw Chat off the sleigh.
"Everytime!" Phoenix said and jumped off after him.
Ladybug jumped after the two of them, holding their wrists and shooting towards a nearby lamp post to soften their fall.
This only made them loose their control and soar over to an open apartment, which turned out to be Alya's.
The three of them rolled around the floor until they finally stopped.
Phoenix lay down at the bottom of the heap, her back on the ground.
Chat's face was smushed on hers, Ladybug sitting on top of him in a daze.
"Chat and Phoenix are kissing!" Alya's sister screeched.
"What?" Ladybug snapped out of her daze, looking over her two allies. "Oh, they do that all the time."
Chat slowly rolled off of Phoenix. "We never did it in front of you."
"Yes, you do." Ladybug replied.
"Yes, we do." Phoenix agreed.
Chat huffed.
"Anything you'd three like to say for the Ladyblog?" Alya said excitedly videoing them.
"It's not at all what it looks like!" Ladybug says.
"Yeah, we're not just swinging around because we're bored." Phoenix says, suddenly thinking about their patrol nights where the three of them have "superhero tag". "Yeah, we never do that."
"I'm dating Phoenix." Chat says smugly.
"I think they've gathered that." Phoenix rolled her eyes.
The sleigh rushed past the window, and Chat rushed out the window.
"I hope you know that I'm not catching you again if you fall." Phoenix said.
"I'd prefer you not doing that." Chat said, winking at her. "Contrary to popular belief, falling for you is a dream."
Alya squealed and Phoenix groaned.
Ladybug chuckled and looked out the window. "We've got to do something else."
She used her Lucky Charm, and it only gave her a box.
"I hope it's not telling us to move to another city." Phoenix said.
"I'd like to move to another place with you." Chat said, slinging an arm around her waist. "Maybe London?"
"I'm not leaving my family," Phoenix huffed and shoved him off. "and not in front of the camera!"
"I love you." Chat chuckled as Ladybug surveyed her surroundings.
Phoenix only groaned.
"You two, shush." Ladybug rolled her eyes. "I need packing tape, scissors and office supplies. Do you guys have those things here?"
As everyone gathered the needed items, Ladybug perked up and put them in a sack.
She scribbled something on a piece of paper and gave it to Chat Noir.
"My Christmas List, go to the Dupain-Cheng's bakery and grab these items. Meet me back in the Eiffel Tower in a few minutes."
Chat faced Phoenix with a small smile. "Got a Christmas wish?"
"For you to follow what she says for once." Phoenix rolled her eyes.
"I've always wished of being your Santa Claus." Chat teased. "Wish granted."
he gave her a quick peck before launching himself off the terrace.
"Oh my god, I'm breaking up with him." Phoenix groaned.
"No, you're not." Ladybug laughed as she shot her yoyo to the Eiffel.
"No, I'm not." Phoenix agreed.
With a laugh and a small wave of farewell, the two superheroes set off for the Eiffel Tower.
Phoenix stood on the ground beside Chat Noir, who stood on the ledge with his arms outstretched.
A few feet away from them was a cut-out of Ladybug with a Christmas hat.
As soon as they saw Santa close to them, Chat let out a small cough, clearing his throat.
He winked over at Phoenix. "Listen to this, babe."
"Oh my god." Allison groaned again.
Santa appeared, seeing the present.
"For me?" He asked, looking over at Chat.
Chat: Santa, you're the winner. We stand down and surrender.
Santa looked suprised at this.
Chat: We fear you have defeated us so we give you our Miraculous.
He looked over at Phoenix, smiling.
"Your turn."
"Do I have to?"
"Yes."
With a roll of her eyes, Phoenix smiled up.
Phoenix: But, beforehand, here is a gift for you.
She gestured to the massive box.
Phoenix: Because on Christmas night, you have a right to that, too.
Chat assisted Phoenix as she climbed up next to him.
Phoenix and Chat: Rebel with a cause, you give us so much fright! We all have the right to a present on Christmas Night!
Phoenix smirked as she floated a little bit closer to the sleigh.
"Go on," She urged. "Open it."
Just then, the cut-out of Ladybug was blown down by the wind.
The gift box Santa was holding exploded, and out came Ladybug with a smug smile.
"Merry Christmas!" She giggled, wrapping Santa and the sleigh in her yoyo.
Phoenix swooped over and grabbed Santa's cap, throwing it over to Chat Noir.
Chat summoned his cataclysm and swiped his claw on the cap and threw it back to the air.
It disintegrated, leaving dust particles and an akuma in the air.
"Merry Christmas." Chat smiled over to Ladybug as Phoenix landed next to him.
"Thanks, Kitty." She replied, de-evilizing the akuma.
She threw the box up. "Miraculous Ladybug!"
They landed on the concrete, next to each other.
Chat Noir slung an arm around Phoenix happily, fistbumping with Ladybug.
"Pound it!"
And, everything went back to normal.
"Adrien, you understand I can't have you disappearing like that." Mr. Agreste huffed to Adrien, who stood beside him.
Allison and Natalie stood a few feet away, waiting for the discussion to finish.
"I couldn't bear the thought of losing you." Mr. Agreste muttered, looking at a surprised Adrien.
The doorbell rang.
Adrien looked over at Natalie who picked up the phone.
"It's for you." She said as she hung up.
Adrien ran over, dragging Allison out with him.
They reached the front door, trailed by Natalie.
"I called them, after Allison informed me you were safe a few hours ago." Natalie said. "They were all worried."
The both teens were surprised when the door opened to the faces of all their friends and their friends' families.
Allison smiled over at Alya and Marinette who waved.
Adrien looked over to his father. "Oh, please, father! It's Christmas!"
"Very well." Mr. Agreste nodded. "Come on in."
Everyone of their friends rushed in to hug Adrien.
Marinette and Alya stood beside Allison with open mouths due to the Agreste mansion.
"Merry Christmas, Adrien." Natalie said to Adrien, who smiled back.
Everyone sat inside the Agreste mansion, infront of the lengthy dinner table.
Santa sat at the head of the table joyfully.
Adrien sat next to Allison, who admired her boyfriend's geniunely excited face.
Everyone: Merry Christmas to all.
Allison turned around, looking at Mrs. Agreste's photo.
"Merry Christmas, Mrs. Agreste."
Adrien turned as well. "Merry Christmas, mom."
Then, he turned to Allison and kissed her forehead.
"Merry Christmas, Mr. Adrien Agreste."
Allison teased, kissing his nose.
"Merry Christmas, Mrs. Allison Agreste."
And with that, Adrien pressed a delicate kiss to her lips.
