Thank you all for your reviews, especially the guest who commented on my current situation. Thanks for that, because you actually convinced me that what my parents are doing is for my good. I still do believe that my mom will sell my device like she said, but I know that one day, you'll see me rise up back 10 years later or so...I dunno. But again Thank you!

Marinette and Adrien walked out of the hospital hand in hand, grateful that they were finally released. Sure, it was a downer at the fact that Adriens dad was hawkmoth, but in reality, it was all meant to happen.
Adrien, was now living with Nino, since, his father no longer took over the company, and he would, as soon as he waited till married, or 18. And, he had his ideas.
"Ultimate mega strike?" Adrien asked as they entered the car. Marinette made a smirk before winking.
"Maybe so...but I wouldn't want to beat you, and then you go to Nino's crying, and all that stuff", Marinette said.
"Oh, I get it, so now that I know your identity, I am forced to accept ultimate defeat?" Adrien asked.
"Oh my Mr. Agreste...that's been happening since your first Ultimate Mega strike round with me", she said. Adrien rolled his eyes before they burst out laughing.
Oh, if you only knew Marinette...he said to himself.
"Before you get dropped off at Ninos, my mom said that she wanted you to join me for my 'welcome home' cake, that is, if you want to come?" She asked.
"Sure thing!" He said, then grabbed his phone to call Natalie. Marinette wasn't a nosy one, but she knew that something was wrong when she'd see it. Adrien seemed to notice too, when the driver (Mr. G) had stopped the car. Something odd was going on. Adrien looked at her and she nodded, confirming her thoughts.
"Excuse me, Mr. G, is there a problem?" She asked. Mr G nodded and pointed to the sky. There, stood the maulpornouse tower, a piece of it gone. Smoke came out of it, preferably from the damage, something had happened and, it wasn't normal. Marinette looked at Adrien who nodded at her to transform and help the police and fire fighters. Marinette ran out of the car without hesitation and transformed in an alleyway, heading for the tower. Mr. G didn't seem to notice but he nodded at Adrien to transform. This, wasn't a surprise to him, since the gorilla had kept his secret since the beginning. He transformed then exited the car to run after his lady.
Ladybug jumped on a police car, releasing hr yo-yo, to look at the firemen.
"What's going on here?" She asked skeptically. One of the fire fighters turned to face her, relief spread across his face.
"Thank goodness ladybug, it turns out a piece of the building is missing. Though, it would be dangerous to go inside, some say it is hawkmoth...but we are very aware that you had defeated him", he said.
"Yes, that is no Hawkmoth doing, but...I'll go take a look inside, if you don't mind" she said.
"No, please go ahead", he said. Ladybug nodded in his direction and took off towards the building. She decided to go through the front, most likely to check for any survivors. As she entered, she saw desks, and papers scattered on the floor, maybe some terrorizers? She glanced up to see lights flicker, probably from the power being messed with.
"Hello?" She asked, " its ladybug, I've come to rescue any survivors...hello?" She said. Suddenly, she heard weeping from behind a desk. She tilted her head to the side before running in that direction.
"Hello, is anybody there?" She said.
"Yes", Said the voice of a child, in a whispering voice. She moved the desk out of the way to spot a little girl, probably 5 years old crouched behind the desk in worry. She held the teddy bear close to her chest as the tears cascaded down her face. She easily wiped them away with her palm before looking back to ladybug.
"Hello", she said sniffling. Ladybug immediately grabbed her, pulling her out of harms way.
"Hi, my name is ladybug, and I'm here to help you...do you know what happened here?" She said. The little girl crouched before nodding her head.
"Yes", she said. Ladybug nodded her head, but there was an uneasiness.
"Okay, well, what's your name?" She asked.
"My name is Lily" she said. Ladybug smiled before picking her up and heading out the door.
"Well, it was nice to meet you lily, I'm going to get you out of here okay?" She said.
"No!" Lily Screamed. Gripping her bear...and looking to ladybug with more tears in her eyes.
"Wh-Why?", Marinette asked.
"Because my parents are up there, I need to save them!" She said crying.
Ladybug sat her down and looked at her skeptically...the little girl seemed afraid, and scared and she for one knew what that felt like, but if she had parents, and if they were on the top floor where most of the damage had been done, then how did she get down here?
"Okay, I'll go get your parents, now can you wait here while I go get them?l she asked.
The little girl nodded her head before Marinette turned back around and escorted her back to the doors, leaving her with a fire fighter. She ran back inside hurrying to the top floor, in hopes that Lily's parents were there. As she came to the top floor, she spotted the hide missing piece of the tower right in front of her. Her stomach fluttered at the huge drop.
"Hello?! I found your daughter and I was told to come see if her parents were here...hello?" She said. Suddenly she felt a kick to her stomach and she fell to the floor.
"Aghhh" She said grunting, she held her stomach as the pain rushed to her body. As she looked on the floor, she saw two feet of high heels clanking against the floor. She looked up to see a smirking villain. With brown hair, puled up into a high ponytail, and a dark blue mask. She had a blue dress on that reached to her knees with peacock pattering on the dress, and purple low heels.
"Why, Miss ladybug, how intriguing it is for you to join my party", the villain said deviously. Ladybug looked to her chest to see the peacock miraculous plastered right there in front of her.
"Do you like my jewelry?, It was a gift, now that I think about it, thanks to you", she said. Ladybug shivered as she looked into the villains dark olive green eyes.
"Your not Mayura"she said as she tried to get up.
"No, I'm not, you can call me Paonne, though, I think it suits me", Paonne said, then kicked ladybug once again to the floor, "you have no idea how much I wanted to do that", she said snickering. Ladybug grunted again this time pain consumed her. She rose to her feet, fully knowing that if she didn't, she'd be over with.
"Give...me, your miraculous", ladybug said panting. Paonne just cackled, a laugh similar marinette had heard before, but she couldn't put her finger on it.
"You want my miraculous? Come and get It", she said running to ladybug. Ladybug dodged it easily and swung her yo-yo at the villain, sending her cascading to the ground.
"Oh, now you've just done it", she said. She whistled before a sentimonster appeared in front of ladybug, smaller then she thought, but big enough to be destructive. Ladybug grunted and panted as she looked at it, but she needed to have luck on her side any way.
"Lucky charm!" She yelled, and a paper towel wrap was placed in her hands. Paonne cackled and looked at ladybug.
"What are you going to do with that, wipe your tears away?" She asked laughing. Ladybug smirked before running over to the sentimoster, which held a bracelet on its arm. She jumped on it, wrapping the paper on its head to cover its eyes. She grabbed the bracelet, cracking it open and snatching the feather with her yo-yo. She smiled in relief as she saw the feather fly away, but it was shortly lived when she felt the wind being knocked out of her, pain rushing into her body, but she was still standing. She looked down to see a knife plunged right into her stomach. Blood cascading everywhere. Her hands seemed fine, only because her suit was red, and so was the blood.
Marinette winced as she saw the knife. It stared at her, mocked her for not seeing it sooner. She heard the laugh of Paonne, cackling. She fell to her knees, as she felt Paonne contract the knife.
"My my, ladybug how the tables have turned", Paonne said as ladybug took her last breaths. She saw her lucky charm, screaming for her to grab it. Paonne followed her eyes to the object and smirked.
"Oh no you don't", she said pushing the lucky charm off the building. She smirked evilly, looking into her eyes, that were fluttering closed. As Paonne reached for her earnings she felt the wind knocked out of her as a baton made contact with her stomach, sending her to the ground. Chat, fearfully came with the lucky charm, willing to help his lady. He didn't hesitate as he grabbed ladybugs yo yo, tying the villain. Paonne struggled against the yo-yo, as she tried to break free. Chat ran to ladybug, seeing as she was breathing heavily on the floor. He gave her the lucky charm, urging her to say the words so that she could be healed.
"Come on Bugaboo", he said shaking her. She took a deep breath before wearily yelling lucky charm. All of the damage that had been done was fixed, and she was now healed. She took a big breath as she smiled.
"Thanks Chat" She said softly.
"No problem bugaboo", he said. He immediately turned to see if Paonne was still caged, and to his uttermost dismay, she wasn't.
"M'lady, She's gone", he said seeing the yo-yo on the ground. Ladybug picked up her tool, inspecting it closer, fury filling her,"What are we going to do?" He asked.
Ladybug sucked in a breath before narrowing her eyes out the tower.
"We're going to find Paonne, get her miraculous, and hope for the best", she said," and we need to do it quickly".
"Why so?"
"Cause she's 5x more stronger than Mayura with a knife, I must say I'm afraid of".
