Miraculous AU

Miraculous AU one shot or headcanons?

- Tumblr Anon

(How about a one shot based on some headcanons? - Queen)

Danny laid in a hospital bed, feeling extremely tired for someone who had been asleep for three days. The couch to the side was occupied with the sleeping form of his mother, her hair a mess and dark circles under her eyes.

Danny had tried to make her go home, as her and his dad had been camping out in his room since he was admitted.

(Or so Jazz told him when she kicked them out to go home and shower while she sat with Danny.)

Tucker and Sam had visited as soon as Danny had woken up, their eyes red and faces pale as they both gripped his hands.

"Thought you had died." Tucker had said.

"Something happened. You just changed." Sam had said.

Danny reached up and traced the raised skin on his forehead with his fingertips. The diadem he had jokingly put on before The Accident had disappeared. The only evidence it had existed was pink scars circling his head.

Danny let out a sigh, leaning his head back.

A soft trill came from above him.

He opened his eyes, only to be met with glowing green ones floating above him.

Danny jerked away, the heart monitor picking up his raised heartbeat.

"Shhhhh! It's okay! It's okay!"

Danny gasped at the little thing floating in front of him.

The very familiar little thing. The little bird thing he had seen before the portal came on with him inside.

It floated closer and Danny could make out the wings of the little bird against the darkness of the room.

"You were there," Danny mumbled, glancing to make sure his mother hadn't woken. "Are you a ghost?"

"I am a Kwami. My name is Huginn."

"I have no idea what that means."

Huginn huffed, "I would be surprised if you did."

He floated closer and brushed his feathers against Danny's forehead. Danny shuddered at the tingling that shot through him.

"I am sorry this happened to you. A Miraculous is meant to be a gift, a blessing."

"What did you do?"

Huginn gave him a sharp look, "I saved your life. I may have forced a transformation, but what I did was protect you. If I hadn't? All that energy would have hit you directly. Even the most positive outcome would have resulted in you dying."

Danny blanched. Huginn let out a sigh and backed away. "This is new to me too. But you are a Miraculous holder now. I sensed a good heart and chose you to be my next Raven."

Huginn must have seen something on Danny's face, fear or doubt or both, cause he said, "It isn't something that's just forced on you. You have a choice too: to accept the power or reject it and go on as you have."

The little bird patted Danny's nose, "It's your choice."

"I don't….I don't have to choose now do I?"

"Take as long as you need, I'm not going anywhere. Literally. I'm tied to the diadem and since you kinda melded it into your skin…."

Danny shot him a dirty look. Huginn shrugged, "I got the sappy, heavy talk out of the way. I'm free to fall back on my usual sarcasm. Also I eat chocolate. Tucker already tried feeding me bread and bird seeds and quickly regretted it."

"You're the one that keeps on eating Dad's fudge!"

Jake grunted in frustration as he was knocked off the ledge. He slammed an arm into the side, letting the spikes catch his decent. He kicked off the side as a staff swung down, hitting the brick where is head was.

His momentum carried him back up, and he landed on the edge kicking at his opponent. She dodged back, her staff twirling in her hand.

Jake leapt forward, brandishing his nunchucks. She met him halfway, catching his weapon on her staff. Every time she swung at him, Jake matched her blow for blow.

Then he started losing ground.

Her attacks came faster. She jabbed at his shoulder, moving to kick his side as he blocked. He grabbed her ankle and she fell back, pulling him forward. Her foot found purchase on his stomach and she flipped him into his back.

Before he could move out of the way, a knee landed on his chest and the sharp end of the staff rested on his throat.

Rose smirked and dropped a kiss onto her boyfriend. "Dead, again."

Jake stuck his tongue out, "Only cause I didn't go full dragon."

Rose got to her feet, pulling Jake up with her. "Keep telling yourself that Fire Breath."

"I for one, think Rose won fair and square," Spud said from his perch on the other side of the roof, waving his slurpee in the air as if it proved his point.

Trixie nodded in agreement, "Girl still has it."

"My own friends choose you over me." Jake put his hand over his heart in mock outrage.

Rose shrugged, a grin tugging at her mouth. "It's because I'm prettier."

"Yeah, you are." Jake agreed. Rose kissed him again.

"Booooo!" Chorused Trixie and Spud. "PDA!"

Jake flipped off his friends as Rose drew back to laugh.

Randy sat on his bed, looking thoughtfully at the ceiling. He had just gotten home from Mac Antfee's camp, and was still sore from the so called training he went through.

There was a noisy crunch coming from the ceiling fan, where Norri was happily munching on pickles as they hung from their tail. The kwami had been strangely quiet that week. Much different from the usual bouncy attitude they exhibit.

"How did-?" Randy cut himself off but caught Norri's attention anyways.

"How did what? Asking how I became so awesome?" Norri tackled to themselves.

Randy rolled his eyes. "I was going to ask how exactly Mac Antfee lost the belt."

That cut Norri's humor off, the little monkey cringing.

Randy quickly started to backtrack, "You don't have to tell me. I just wanted to know what he did so I could make sure I never did what he did. Just forget it, I'm being stupid."

Norri sighed and hopped down, setting themself onto Randy's knee. "Its not stupid. And you deserve to know. It's just…."

Norri thought over their words for a minute. "I remember every Ninja I've had. The good ones, the ones that stayed in the shadows….The ones I've failed."

It was times like this that Randy was reminded just how old the kwami was. Norri was just as boisterous and loud and giggly as Randy and Howard. It was easy to forget Norri was older than even the Nomicon.

"The thing about Mac Antfee was he started like you. He had so much potential to be good, be a great Ninja. But he let the power of the Miraculous corrupt him. He failed years of school to stay a ninja. He took shortcuts, abused his powers. Until eventually….

"A student got hurt because of him. Bad."

Randy sucked in a breath.

Norri had a weary look on their face, showing his age. "That was the last straw. So Nomicon took away the belt. Something that we should have done years before."

"And the student? The one that got hurt?"

Norri shrugged, "He missed graduation, I don't know what happened to him after high school. I don't regret much, but I do regret not having Nomicon take the belt away. If we had just done that, the poor kid would never have lost his arm."
