At home, Adrien had no memory of what happened when he was turned into a Werecat. It scared him that he saw the news of the Werecat running on all fours and eating fish in the seafood market.

"Could it be the cat's bite that made me into that?" He wondered, "Then that means it was no ordinary cat!" He then realized.

"You could be right but what if its bite was radioactive?" Plagg not being helpful.

"Then I'd be radiation poisoned" Adrien shook his head.

"From what I saw, you seem to transform from anger," Plagg said.

"That explains the feverish feeling. I was angry at my father" Adrien realized.

"Better not get angry again," Plagg said.

"It's not that simple, Plagg. Human emotions are hard to deal with in life" Adrien said, turning off the TV.

"We kwamis don't fall in love," Plagg said.

"No, but they got urges like us humans, like your cheese obsession," Adrien said.

"Back to the subject, it all started with that stray cat that bit you. The next, cravings for tuna fish, the next, you got a little faster" Plagg reminded him.

"Yes, and that I cringe at the water" Adrien adds.

"And you might wanna take a shower now. I can still smell that fish on you" Plagg said.

"Alright then, wait outside" Adrien goes in the bathroom to take a shower, "I can't believe I have no memory of it." He sighed and started stripping his clothes and turned on the shower. But once touching the water with his hand he flinched by the water, "Grrr! It's just a harmless water" He said to himself and tries again.

But while he showered, he grit his teeth to not flinch, and the warm water then relaxed him a bit, "Haaaaah….. better" He sighs in relief.

After showering, he got dressed. As he walked out of his bathroom, he was greeted by his cold father and the model was in no mood to see his face. Not after that rude conversation, they had earlier.

"What is it now, father?" Adrien asked.

"Just wanted to talk about the talk yesterday. Was skipping the Chinese all because of your wound?" He asked.

"Yes, and I was feeling drowsy. Right now, I'm not in the mood to talk about it, father. So please leave" Adrien said, getting a little upset with him.

"And another thing, stay indoors at night since a werecat was on the rampage last night" Gabriel then adds before leaving.

Much later at school, Adrien heard many talks about the werecat much to his annoyance. He may not remember what he was doing as a Werecat but he bet that Ladybug fought him without realizing it. Right now he has to try not to get angry or stressed to trigger a transformation.

"Seems like the werecat went viral" Adrien said.

"Are you kidding? This is a real creature!" Nino said.

"And Ladybug fought it" Adrien saw a video of the fight on the phone.

"Yeah but it got away," Nino said.

"Who knows if it might come back again. I have a feeling it's a person" Marinette said.

"A werecat?" Adrien guessed, pretending to not know.

"Maybe but werewolves are extremely popular than werecats" Marinette shrugged.

"Also there was no full moon last night" Alya pointed out in the video, seeing the crescent moon.

"That's for werewolves, Alya" Adrien corrected her.

"From what I read, weretigers are made through rituals and don't need a moon either," Alya said.

"But this creature last night is real," Marinette said.

"Yes. We better stay away from where ever it may lurk at" Alya said.

The bell rings and everyone is dismissed and Adrien felt scared if he transforms again and will not have any memory of it. He also worried if he attacks his own friends while transformed. He heads to his locker but Lila was there to fool him with her twisted lies.

"What is it now, Lila?" He asked, trying to stay calm.

"It's just that…..last night this Werecat ate my homework and I thought maybe we can study at your place" Lila tried to fool him again.

"Sorry, but my father isn't allowing guests right now. Technically, dogs eat homework, not cats" Adrien said, not falling for her dumb lies again.

"Can't he make an exception?" Lila kept trying.

"No. And I haven't forgotten what you did the last time I let you in" Adrien said coldly.

Before she could speak, Adrien walks away from her. He hated her being a pathological liar all the time just to get attention. He hopes one day she'll face the consequences because lying too much is a very bad deed.

"She's worse than Chloe now," He thought and noticed his anger is triggering his human nails to turn into claws again. He quickly tried to relax and think happy thoughts about his lady, "Think of Ladybug, think of her" He said quietly.

As soon as he calms down, his claws revert back to fingernails. He learned that anger and rage trigger his transformation and he has to be careful not to get angry, "Be cool Adrien" He said quietly to himself.

He heads outside to get to his bodyguard's car to get home, "Well, see ya, Nino. If that creature comes back, make sure Alya doesn't get too close to it for the blog." Adrien said to his best friend.

"Got it, Dude" Nino thumbs up at him while Adrien got into the limo.

"Just drive to the mansion," Adrien said to his bodyguard.

Gorilla noticed his strange behavior but decided to play along. Maybe he wasn't in a good mood or just too tired of being told what to do by his father.

On the way, Adrien tries to remain calm. He hates how his father talks to him like that which really upsets him a lot. If only his mother was still here but she's not here at all. These strict rules and limitations were slowly getting on his nerves.

They made it to the mansion and Adrien got out of the car, feeling a bit moody which he doesn't understand why. It's like his emotions are out of control. Once inside he saw that his father was busy with a phone call. Typical, always busy with everything. He headed to his room to be for himself and Plagg.

"I'm really scared, Plagg. I think I'm cursed. This can destroy my social life" Adrien slumps on his bed.

"That does not sound good," Plagg said.

"I mean it. If I turn into a werecat I might accidentally kill anyone I love" Adrien said.

"You don't even remember a single thing as a Werecat?" Plagg asked.

"I heard about the werecat attack with Ladybug at school today," Adrien said.

"I'm just glad I helped cover your tracks when you transformed back," Plagg said.

A knock on the door was heard and Plagg hides in Adrien's jacket. The model facepalmed that it was time for piano lessons again, "Alright I'm ready" He groans and goes to the piano.

Adrien started to play while his father sat nearby listening to the tones, expecting them to be the right ones. Adrien looks nervously over at times while pressing the keys from the right and then to the left and back between. But at the wrong tone, Gabriel held his hand up to stop.

"I've heard enough. Still not improved" He said.

"Heard enough, huh? I think I need some air" Adrien was not impressed with his father's approval. He leaves the room while hearing his father demanding him to come back but this time, Adrien is not gonna obey him again.

"Unbelievable!" He sighs in frustration and goes outside the mansion, "Nothing good enough for him!" He goes down the street.

"I'm so tired of being perfect for him! Why can't I just be myself?! Is that too much to ask?!" He growled angrily, nearly feeling his ribs crack to transform again, "Argh! Oh no! Not now!" He held his gut.

"Kid! Calm down!" Plagg begged.

"I can't!" Adrien screamed in pain as he transformed, hearing his clothes rip. He tore the shirt with his bare hands as he grew to six feet tall. The tail grew out and whips the ground. The shoes on his feet burst and the jeans also got torn but stayed on him.

The fur rapidly grew out as his face morphed into a cat's face, "MEEEEEEEEOWWW!" He bellowed and runs on all four.

"Oh no!" Plagg gasps as his holder run off all feral.

Werecat Adrien was scaring people in the city, smelling fresh meat everywhere. He ran inside a supermarket and lunged at the meat counter, grabbing a handful of meat to devour. With fangs built for biting and tearing, he munched on the fresh meat to eat. Everyone in the store ran outside to get away from the monster. He did not care but he did not want anyone to bother him. He heard the police sirens and ran out of the store with a chunk of meat.
