A Reindeer and Her Furiends:

Thundering Lord: Glad you found and enjoyed it. Really? It seems there's a lot of Lukanette. Whateva, cute huh? thanks I tried. Thank Pink I was worried I didn't get Angel right. Yup, that's the Roserades for you. ALWAYS pay in gratitude. He would find Cecilia's devotion en-deer-ing?! Wonderful. Of course she would defend Angel on a text. A keeper?! OH MY DAMN CHERRY BLOSSOMS 🌸🌸🌸🌸 That's beautiful to know.

W.R Winters: Really? Not my intention. Not complaining mind you. The girls are just good friends nothing more. Yea I know Angel/Cecilia are quite the pair. More of them done the line. Don't worry. (HUGE Sweet Smile)

UnicornSecrets: Good I hoping to potray Alix and Cecilia's friendship well. Yup she is very protective huh? (Giggles) Need more we will see. Of course she sees through Angel's cold demeanor to find the wwrmth he hides. More than meets the eye indeed.


Short Fuse smirks as The Lucky Duo gets closer. "Well glad to see you rugrats understand your out matched. Never send children to do an adult's job." He taunts.

Cat Noir scowls at him, turning to his Lady she glares at Short Fuse clenching her left fist. Green cat eyes soften understandably at her demeanor, they shift back to Short Fuse staring at the detonator in his grip. 'Huh interesting turn of events after all.' Deer Heart thinks. Pale pink eyes shift to the Effiel Tower all plugged up ready to blow than back to The Lucky Duo.

Pink deer ears twitch in anticipation. "Alright enough games you two. Hand over the ring and earrings chop-chop." Short Fuse's amber eyes look to Cat Noir than he glares at Ladybug fiercer. Cat takes a deep breath mouth set in a firm line of defiance. Ever so slowly he raises hiss right paw (releasing hiss left fur-om Ladybug's right) to start taking off his miraculous. Ladybug side glances her partner. A look of pure pain envelops her bluebell eyes. 'Cat Noir I'm sorry, I failed you.'

Deer Heart's jaw drops as her legs nearly lose their sense of gravity. 'OH MY PINK!' She thinks frantic coming to a split second decision.

Gripping her black flute tighter, raises it to her lips one last glance at Short Fuse fire in pale pink eyes. Softly whispers "Sweet Song 1" a sweet melody morphed pink mist rings through the air.

Cat Noir's ears twitch he smiles scaning the area wondering where the lovely noise is coming from only for Ladybug to grab his attention.

"Cat look." Ladybug's eyes are glued to the akuma. Spotted mask eyebrows raised in complete confusion. Short Fuse's amber eyes are glazed over the whole eye is misted in pink a trance like state. He's lightly swaying as if on a boat. Ladybug approachs him staring him down, she follows his line of sight to come up with... NOTHING!

Cat Noir walks over hiss feline ears still twitching slightly that soft melody seems to grow louder. "Huh M'Lady I know your stunning but thiss is overkill."

The red mask doesn't stop the light blush on her cheeks tho she supresses it. Getting back to the unknown halt in question. Known of course to said hidden deer playing quickly losing her breath.

'HURRY UP! I can't keep this up.' As if answering her silent plea, Cat Noir actives hiss cataclysm. The destructive power visible and strong he raises his right paw to touch the helmet Deer Heart's eyes widen in wonder.

Ladybug smiles at Cat Noir tho he doesn't see it. But just an inch away from touching the helmet, the soft mysterious melody stops all togther! Being replaced by a loud terrified shrieking?

With the melody gone Short Fuse is freed. His amber eyes blink to see Cat Noir's paw hovering over him. He actives the detonator as Ladybug gasps going to grab it... too late. The Effiel Tower blows up the beams and platform goes up in smoke in front of them. The explosion is massive. A high vibration of it's fall causes The Lucky Duo to stumble on their feet.

Short Fuse's face is covered by Hawkmoth's butterfly mask. "Hold your ground. I don't know what happened they must have distributed our link some how." Short Fuse nodded. "Don't worry Hawkmoth, I still have them." He smirks as the mask fades.

The Lucky Duo regroup after getting their footing back. Out of Short Fuse's sight once again. He grumbles throwing more random dynamite sticks everywhere. Cat Noir leans on his baton releasing a sigh. "I'm sorry M'Lady, if I was quicker-" He apaw-logizes but she cuts him off smiling. "It's okay Kitty, at least we know where the akuma is now. His hard helmet, why else did he destroy the Tower?"

Deer Heart watches from the roof above the ally there hidding in feeling completely idiotic. 'Damn it. Cat almost had him. Stupid me why did that disgusting, eww-" Her thoughts are cut off at Ladybug's cry of "Lucky Charm!" What falls into her awaiting hands is... a metal detector!

"I know exactly what do with this." She claims with a smile. Cat Noir stares at the red and black spotted charm. "Let's hope his head isn't glued to it." Ladybug turns to Cat smirking. "Even if he is, dragging I will still capture that akuma." They laugh wholeheartedly. Pale pink eyes roll bored at their banter.

The Lucky Duo jump back into things. Deer Heart leaps down from the roof once their gone. She again stays low unseen. Zig-zagging through the allyways careful to avoid undesired attention.

Ladybug grips the metal detector as she ans Cat leap out to land near Short Fuse. Said akuma turns around swiftly throwing a dynamite stick at them. They jump in different directions as it goes off on the contact with the ground. Through the smoke Short Fuse looks in trying to find which way they went when he's grabbed from behind by black clawed hands. Amber eyes widen in fury turning to see Cat Noir has his arms pinned unable to grab for his satchel.

As the smoke clears Ladybug moves forward the metallic pull from the detector the hard helmet goes flying towards her. "Why thank you, yet it's not my style." She mocks pulling it off the Charm to smash it against the concrete. The akuma flies free... until "No more evil-doing for you little akuma." she says readying her yo-yo. "Time to de-evilize!" She says swing it going in for the capture, Ladybug brings it back to her hand "Gotcha!" She says opening it allowing the white butterfly to flutter free. "Bye bye little butterfly." she declares as she and Cat Noir (had released Short Fuse once the helmet was smashed) watch it fly away.

Deer Heart watches the construction worker get up from his knees confused as ever. "Huh wh- what the hell happened?" The man's voice still gruff but kinder. He turns to see The Lucky Duo "Pound it" as they turn to him. Reassuring him that everything will be alright. Ladybug throws the metal detector in the air with a shout of "Miraculous Ladybug!" Her cure repairs the damage done by all the dynamite, all the mini ladybugs swarning everywhere.

Deer Heart looks around, pink gloved hands on her light brown coated hips. Scoffing highly annoyed. "Seriously that cure over does it. Well whatever M'Lord is safe so I'm gone." With that playing her flute summons cherry blossom petals Deer Heart vanishes out of sight.


10 OR SO MINTUNES AT THE PARK...

Cecilia waits sitting on a bench. Reading a book calmy smiling to herself as a voice drags her out of her thoughts. "Cecilia glad your alright." She turns her pale pink eyes away from her page bookmarking and putting into her purse. Raises her left hand waving at Adrien.

"Yes thank you. I'm doing much better than I thought. So you said everything would be explained after that ummm... explosion loving akuma crazy." Adrien laughs nervously. As he sits down beside her.

"Yes I did. Don't worry akumas happen sadly a lot but thanks to Ladybug and Cat Noir we are always safe. Hwakmoth the one that causes the akumas, a really dangerous monster but the heroes never give up trying to stop him from hurting people." Adrien says proudly. Cecilia smiles giggling along with his explanations.

Inwardly she smirks 'Oh come on, Hawkmoth wanting the miraculous what's his endgame? Well, whatever as long as his akumas don't hurt M'Lord I don't care.' As the two continue to talk a cockroach crawls on the bench Cecilia's eyes bug out (PUN NOT INTENDED) she screams leaping into Adrien's lap on her left. "Aaahhhh! OH MY PINK! Kill that disgusting thing!" Adrien stands up suprised Cecilia's so light in his hold.

He looks down as the cockroach crawls away. He smiles turning to Cecilia only to find her eyes shut tight and she's whimpering. "Cecilia it's okay. It's gone now." Pale pink eyes stare into emerald green a light blush of embarrassment on her snow pale cheeks. "Thank Pink, sorry about this Adrien. I just loathe bugs, mainly cockroachs their just eeewww."

Adrien smiles kindly at Cecilia's scare. Understanding her better he opens his mouth, but interrupted by a throat clearing breaking the Agreste/Roserade moment. Alya stands there smug with Marinette staring in "slight" panic at the two.

Adrien smiles slowly putting Cecilia down. Her arms still wrapped around his neck until her feet are firmly balanced on her own from the scare. "Hello again you too." The strawberry-blonde says trying to get the conversation going. Alya laughs "Hey you two. Don't get out of Adrien's arms on my account. Cecilia what you fallen for our Sunshine here too?"

Marinette next to Alya looks ready to run away. Adrien laughs lighly and a sweet smile on his lips. "Alya stop teasing Cecilia please. It's not like that-" Cecilia glares subtly at Alya tho she doesn't notice. "- Not your concern if I am or not. Tho I'm not, I just met Adrien okay? I was terrified and Adrien was able to calm me down." Cecilia says with some bite in her voice.

Alya normally would have snapped at anyone talking to her like that. Yet hearing Cecilia was scared made her stop and ponder why? Marinette breathes a sigh of relief, not for the reason the 3 think. Alya has an idea why of course.

Alya smiles brightly out of nowhere. "Cecilia let me show you the statue of Paris's heroes Ladybug and Cat Noir..." She races to the statue, the 3 follow in a calmer pace. At the statue they find not only Alya but Nino chilling there too.
