A/N: Ok, so I might update this story every two weeks because my schedule is really overloaded. However cause this is quite short chapters, I may still update every weekend. Once I finish one of my main stories, I'll probably update this a bit more cause of the extra time. I might just start waking up early and pre-writing these during the week so I can get them out on a Saturday.

Anyway, I hope you guys enjoy this chapter!

D.L.D


Marinette followed Tikki and Trixx through the maze of trees, deeper and deeper into the woods. The shade of the trees cast a warm emerald glow on the ground and she could feel a cool breeze blowing. They'd been walking for a while now and the bluenette was beginning to grow anxious.

"Where are you two taking me?" The bluenette raised a brow.

"You'll see!" Both kwamis smiled as they skipped along.

Marinette shook her head. They were always cheerful, even in the worst situations.

"Can't you two at least tell me why you're here?" The teen begged.

"We can't," Tikki answered.

"Why not?" Marinette asked.

"Because Master Fu can!" Trixx giggled.

Marinette looked ahead and spotted a familiar building stood in the middle of the clearing. It was a cottage with honeysuckle and ivy winding their way up its walls. The garden was adorned with bright flowers and various types of herbs. Outside were a group of children running about as they played together, each distinguishable by the colours they wore.

"Mr Fu, had an exact replica of his house!" The bluenette's eyes widened.

"No!" Both girls giggled.

"He used magic," Trixx explained, "We did too, but he used the most."

"No way!" Marinette's blue eyes sparkled.

"We told you that magic was real," Trixx laughed.

"And that not all witches, or people who use magic, or bad," Tikki added, "You're town is just full of stereotypical prejudice."

"I guess you're right," The teen sighed as they walked towards the cottage, "But next time don't say stereotypical prejudice, just say that they're afraid of the unknown."

"That is true," Trixx agreed, "I mean, they tried to kill us because they didn't know who our parents were. Not that we have any."

"And they tried to accuse Master Fu of witchcraft," Tikki added as she pushed open the gate, "All because he knew how to cure a cold."

"Marinette!" All of the kwamis tackled her in a hug.

"We were so worried!" Pollen cried.

"We thought they'd gotten you too!" Wayzz explained.

"Master Fu told us you'd be alright, but we were scared he was wrong," Duusu squeezed her tightly, "Which he never is..."

"Whoa, whoa, whoa," Marinette smiled, "Slow down. What do you mean you were scared they got me too?"

"The townspeople," Sass sighed, "When they burnt our cottage down, they said that they were heading for you next."

"But why? I'm not a witch," Marinette's brow furrowed.

"But they have their suspicions," Nooroo sighed, "The only thing that keeps you safe is that you're 'from a noble upbringing'."

"What do you mean?" The bluenette tilted her head to the side.

"You'll see," They all spoke.

"You must see the Master now," Wayzz spoke as the kwamis untangled themselves from her.

He then led her inside.

...0o0...

Master Fu sat at a table drinking a cup of tea. Beside him sat Tikki and opposite him sat Plagg and someone else. Wayzz paused at the doorway and opened the door a little before slipping in, leaving Marinette by herself.

"Master, she's here," The kwami spoke.

"Good," He took a sip of his tea, "We all knew this day would come soon."

"But is it wise to do it now?" Wayzz looked at the blonde who sat opposite the old man, "It's been years and they've both changed."

"They still remember each other Wayzz," The old man knitted his brow, "That means something."

"I know but-"

"Mr Fu?" Marinette opened the door the slightest bit to spot the kwami and old man in discussion.

Her blue eyes drifted over to the shaggy haired black clad kwami sitting opposite them and the blonde that sat beside him. His golden hair shone in the sunlight and she could spot two black cat's ears sticking out. Two of the features she remembered about the mystery boy from the woods. He turned and she spotted his emerald green eyes. Recognition hit her instantly as she smiled.

"It's you!" She smiled, "You're that boy who helped me a few years ago!"

"And you're that girl who got lost," He smiled.

"I see you two have met," Master Fu smiled as he saw the two, before he spotted the sun setting, "I guess I'll have to post-pone my meeting with you Marinette. Adrien, could you take her to the edge of the woods?"

"Are you sure that's wise Master?" Wayzz asked, "Nathaniel Kutzberg is going to hunt tonight."

"He'll be fine, Wayzz," The old man smiled, "If anything happens I'll send Plagg and Tikki after them."

"If you say so.." The kwami spoke as he watched the two leave the room.
