After the nightclub, they sneak into the school to use the shower room from the gym lockers. They always come here every night to take a shower separately. They said their detransformation words and did their thing in the gender rooms. Marinette went into the girls' locker room, and Adrien went into the boys' locker room.

After they were clean, they transformed back again to head out.

"Much better now, Kitty" Ladybug said.

"Smells like macaroons" Cat Noir joked.

"Oh, kitty. And I thought cats don't like water" Ladybug teased him.

"This one does" Cat Noir winks at her.

"Good thing you took swimming lessons" Ladybug scratched his chin.

"Yeah, and I still remember our aquatic forms" Cat Noir replied.

"Speaking of power-ups, we are nearly out of them. You remember that book the day you stole from your father?" Ladybug asked and swung out the window.

"Yeah, what about it?" Cat Noir asked.

"We might need it to make more" Ladybug said.

Cat Noir pole-vaulted next to her to the roof, "Oh, man. You want me to be the cat burglar to steal my father's book?"

"I'm sorry but we have no option," Ladybug said.

"Alright, if you insist" Cat Noir reluctantly agreed.

"Don't get caught, kitty" Ladybug kissed his cheek.

"I won't" Cat Noir headed for the mansion.

He hopes he's right and that he won't get caught on the news in the morning. He hated his father and now without a model, Lila took his place.

He saw a nearby billboard and tore it with his claws, "That's for ruining milady's life, bitch"

He pole-vaulted to the Agreste mansion and landed near the window of his father's office. He needs to take out the cameras inside, "Here we go" He cuts a hole in the window with his claws and opened it from the inside. He looks up and takes out the camera inside.

He walks to the portrait of his mother, opens it like a door, and spins the lock combination back and forth, "Bingo" He heard the click and opened the safe, finding the book there, "The lost spellbook that isn't lost." Cat Noir said and took it. He looks back and forth to make sure no one was there before leaving. He left the mansion and pole-vaulted out of here with the book in his hand.

A while later, he arrives back at their warehouse and shows Ladybug the book.

"Excellent job Kitty" Ladybug congratulates Cat Noir and kissed his cheek.

"Meow, milady is growing claws. Do I get a glass of milk?" Cat Noir smirked.

"Of course" Ladybug pours a glass of milk.

"You know tomorrow morning he's probably gonna get akumatized again. What is so important about this book? He barely touched it for months" Cat Noir said and gulped on his milk.

"That's weird. You said it's his most prized possession" Ladybug said.

"He said it was the only thing left since mom disappeared," Cat Noir said.

"I see. And let's see what he hasn't read so far" Ladybug opens the book.

"I've seen it, milady. I just thought it was illustrations but too ancient to be one. No signature and no author" Cat Noir said.

"It sure is" Ladybug read through the pages.

"My father forced me to take Chinese lessons but I never wanted it. I wanted to learn Spanish because it has such romance in it" Cat Noir sighed and finished his milk.

"Oh man, well he's not the best" Ladybug stops at a spell page.

"I barely remember what family is like, milady. Plagg was the only friend I had at the mansion to keep me sane" Cat Noir said and saw the page of the first ladybug holder.

"That must be the first Ladybug" Cat Noir read the page.

"Yup. I have a copy of that but it's at my former house. It's getting late, we need to sleep, kitty. Tikki, spots off" Ladybug transformed to Marinette.

"Yes, Plagg, claws in" Cat Noir turns back to Adrien and goes to the bed with her.

"It's been a long day, princess. For 2 years we survived and now the police are looking for us. We only have each other" Adrien said, holding her close.

"Yeah, all thanks to our lives getting ruined. You're among the few on my side now" Marinette nuzzled his chest.

"Someday we'll get our justice, princess. I still miss our former friends but I don't know how they're doing now." Adrien said, letting out his purring side.

"I'm not gonna accept their apology, they blew their second chances," Marinette said.

"Don't say that, milady" Adrien replied.

"Adrien, they believed Lila over me. They didn't listen to my side of the story, they barely check their facts but they don't, and they don't know I'm Ladybug, except Alya" Marinette said.

"That school is seriously messed up. Now let's just get some sleep" Adrien said.

"Yes, good night, Adrien" Marinette kissed him before going to bed.

The next morning, Marinette was the first one to wake up and saw her prince still sleeping peacefully like a cat. The kwamis were also still asleep outside the miracle box too.

"Aw, so cute" Marinette smiled and got up stretching her arms.

She went into the kitchen area to cook breakfast for her kitty, the kwamis, and herself before she and her kitty go out to do some robbery or fight an akuma.

Soon enough, Adrien woke up, "Good morning Princess"

"Good morning my prince. You slept like a cute kitten" Marinette giggled.

"Oh really, Bugaboo?" Adrien walks up and kissed her cheek.

"Of course. After all, we're living as if we're married" Marinette joked.

"Well, Mrs. Noir, it seems we are and we have Ladynoir as our daughter" Adrien flirted.

"As if. Well, I'm making our favorite breakfast" Marinette just chuckled.

"Alright then. I'll give Ladynoir her breakfast" Adrien goes to feed their cat.

"Meow" Ladynoir stood on her legs for food.

"Coming up, Ladynoir" Adrien pours her food.

"Perfect timing for cheese" Plagg grabs some cheese.

"Plagg, do you really have to eat that so early in the morning?" Adrien was disgusted that his kwami is a glutton.

"So? You have cheese on sandwiches" Plagg said a mouthful.

"For god's sake" Adrien groaned and poured herbal tea into his mug.

"Well, I don't mind" Tikki munched on some bread.

After breakfast, it was time to rob, even if it means being anti-heroes but it was the only way to survive. Instead of robbing the store, they'll wait for the criminals to rob the bank and then steal their work from them.

"Ready milady?" Cat Noir looks down at the bank.

"Indeed, kitty. But it's for our own good to live or die" Ladybug said.

"Let's do it!" He saw the robbers break-in.

The two anti-heroes swoop in and kick the robbers down.

"Nobody move! This is a bank fight!" Cat Noir took his staff out.

"Damn it! It's them!" The robber leader said.

"That's right. And we're claiming what's ours!" Ladybug spins her yo-yo.

"You animals are crazy!" One of the robbers said.

"Maybe but we still got justice!" Ladybug swings her yo-yo to tie up two of the robbers.

"Meow, I love a good snack of mice to eat" Cat Noir crawled on all fours.

"I'll take that" Ladybug grabs the duffle bag and whacks down the leader and three other robbers.

"Cat got your tongue?" Cat Noir headlocks the bad guy's head with his legs and fell down with him.

"AAAGH! Let me go!" The robber yelled.

"Let me think. NO!" Cat Noir knocks him out.

"Okay, kitty. That's enough mice snack" Ladybug said.

"Yes, Bugaboo. You have what we need?" He saw her carry the money-filled duffle bag.

"Of course, kitty cat. Let's go!" They ran out hearing the sirens.

At their abandoned warehouse, they saw the news that Ladybug and Cat Noir stole money from the robbers without explanation.

"On the bright side we're rich," Plagg said.

"This is not about being rich, it's about surviving," Marinette said.

"Just joking" Plagg replied.

"And no akuma so far," Adrien said.

"What the hell is he up to?" Marinette asked.

"I don't know yet Milady but I have a feeling he's plotting something," Cat noir said.
