Scene 24 - *Gabriel Alone in the Agrest Mansion
Gabriel stood alone in his home. He had given Nathalie and his driver the day off. He had told Nathalie that Adrien would be spending the day with his friends. She cared so much for his son. She didn't need to know that the boy was a traitor this whole time.
He went over the plan in his mind again. In a few hours, he and Ephemeral would corner Marinette in the cinema. Ephemeral would speed up her de-transformation, and Gabriel would be free to easily take her miraculous. She would be no match for him while he wielded three miraculous.
He had wanted to go to the Dupain-Cheng bakery last night, as soon as his son had revealed Ladybug's identity. But he was exhausted, and he needed his strength and focus to make the Wish. This way was better. Her defeat would be away from prying eyes, so there would be no interference from other heroes or the kwamiis she guarded.
He looked over at his own trio of Kwamiis. They sat silently on his desk, just as he had instructed. Plagg had been upset by his sudden change in masters, but ultimately Gabriel had no trouble forcing him to obey.
Gabriel looked up at the portrait of his wife. This would be his last day alone.
