Chapter 14


That's when they heard it. There was the sound of a big crash outside the bakery.

Everyone went to go check it out except for Adrien who was still recovering and Marinette who stayed with him. Tikki stayed as well to look over Marinette as well as the unconscious Plagg.

"What do you think that was Marinette?" Tikki asked worriedly.

"I don't know Tikki.."

With the rest..

The group made it down stairs and out into the streets to see the unimaginable.

Cars were tossed around and knocked over in the wake of destruction. Building were half destroyed and there was fire spreading.

"This is terrible!" Alya yelled in horror.

"Who could've done this!" Luka said in anger.

Suddenly they heard the sound of laughter from above.

"Why if it isn't the miraculous holders...how was the illusion of victory you tasted?"

They looked up in the sky to see Felix hovering above them.

"Felix!" Nino yelled up to him. What on earth happened to him? Why was he floating! Many questions were running inside his head.

"You thought once you separated me from Adrien that was it!" he cackled loudly as he hovered lower until he rested on top of a flipped car.

"My essence merely grasped on to this vessel. It took a minute but eventually I was able to take control." he said before he started to inspect himself.

"It's not like my last vessel but it'll have to do."

"Get out of his body!" Mr. Agreste demanded. He wasn't close to any other members of his family since he fell off with them but he definitely didn't want to see any Agreste be toyed with.

"Ah Gabriel..first your son now your nephew." Felix gave out another cruel laugh.

"I'll have fun crushing you all...but for now I'll let you live." He said before getting up and flying off.

Alya looked towards the rest and spoke the question on everyone else's mind.

"What are we going to do now?"


Back with Adrien and Marinette

Tikki kept vigil over Plagg while Marinette caught Adrien up on things he missed out on for the past two years.

" So what happened to Chloe?"

"She moved to the States. She said she couldn't be in a place where you weren't." Marinette told him. At the time Marinette had been jealous Chloe had the chance to do so. She wanted so badly to leave Paris behind when Adrien was dead to the world.

"Ah...I see." he said a bit distraught. Chloe was his first friend. She left because he was wrongly considered dead. He had to get in contact with her one day and get her to come back.

"So what else has happened? Hawk Moth still around?"

That made Marinette take pause and unfortunately for her Adrien noticed when she hadn't spoken after awhile.

"Marinette you okay?"

"Um yeah! I'm fine Adrien…Hawk Moth isn't a problem anymore."

"Well that's purrfect!..." 'Wow..I haven't made a cat pun in awhile' he thought.

Apparently his pun was actually funny to her as she broke out into unrestrained laughter.

"Hehe.. I guess my jokes are funny huh purrincess."

"Haha no Kitty...it's just I didn't realize how much I missed them." she said as she wiped her tears away and smiled at him.

"Hey you guys Plagg is moving!" Tikki said to gain their attention.

They both moved quickly to the black Kwami that was starting to move.

"Plagg!Plagg!" Adrien called to his friend.

"Agh..Adrien that you?" Plagg mumbled tiredly. He hadn't opened his eyes yet.

"Yes Plagg it's me. I'm here buddy."

"Me too Plagg!" Tikki spoke.

"Tikki?"

Plagg opened his eyes to see that Adrien,Tikki and Marinette were around him looking with worried looks.

"Ugh..woah am I hungry.."

Plagg then looked around and noticed their surroundings.

"I suppose since we're not dead means my plan workkk." He yawned out.

"Your plan?" Adrien questioned.

Plagg gave him a curious look," You don't remember, do you?"

"No I don't...I can remember a few things but everything feels like a dream." Adrien told him as he rubbed his head.

"Plagg what do you mean?" Tikki asked.

"How do you think we survived. You were going to become the vessel to the Kuroi Sora with no way of reconnecting with your body. If it wasn't for my quick intervention you wouldn't have been able to separate."

"What did you do?" Marinette asked.

"Well I would tell you buuut this kitten is on empty." he said as he plopped down and started rubbing his stomach with his tiny limbs.

"Ugh… how about Plagg, you tell us what's up and I'll get you your favorite Camembert." Adrien said before leaning to whisper in Marinette's ear.

"Do you have Camembert?"

"Hehe yes my Papa ordered some recently."

Plagg sat up slightly and made some motions as if he was thinking over the whole deal. You could tell he was already hooked but this was Plagg. He loved messing around.

After about two minutes Plagg agreed to their terms.

"Okay so I'm not going to make you relive some epic tale like others like to do. I'm gonna give you the short version simply because I want my cheese."

"Ok." They all said.

"Sooo basically when Adrien was being turned into the big bad they had him in costume. They wanted to absorb me and him at the same time. That was their mistake. I of course fused myself with Adrien's Soul which prevented us from being completely absorbed."

"Plagg that's taboo!" Tikki said in shock.

"Well it was either that or—" he started to say but he was interrupted when the others came rushing into the room.

"We have a problem!" Nino said as he was the first one into the room.

Adrien rose up from where he was laying to respond.

"What's wrong?"

"It's Felix..he's been possessed like Adrien was!"

"How is that possible, I thought we stopped that?" Marinette questioned as she turned her gaze to Master Fu.

"I don't know...I had thought as well."he spoke softly.

"Well for right now we can't do anything about it. He ran away once we saw him."

"He must need time to recover...we did deal him a serious blow today." Marinette said.

"Correct you are.. for now it's best you all go to school and act like everything is normal. Stay vigilant and don't go anywhere alone from here on out." Master Fu said.

"Alright." Everyone said.

They stayed at the bakery for a little while longer before everyone went their separate ways. Buddied up of course.


Sunday Morning

It was Sunday morning at 8:45 when Adrien rolled to the side of his bed to received a text message on his new phone from Marinette. Marinette had given him her number while Plagg was filling up on his cheese before he had left her bakery. She said it was because so they could make sure the other was safe at all times and he couldn't help but to think how smart she was for that. Who knew when they were going to get attacked next. It didn't help that their identities were known to their enemy.

He opened his phone to read the text message.

From: Bugaboo(he still couldn't believe she was his Lady)

To: Adrien

Good morning kitty (^.,.^)

He let out a laugh at her text of a kitty face.

Good morning m'Lady~ how'd ya sleep.

I slept ok...doesn't feel weird, like now that our secret identities are known to each other..it just feels weird talking to you.

Adrien read the text she sent and almost immediately panicked. What was she saying? She felt weird talking to him? Did that mean she didn't want to anymore?! No no no he was overreacting.

However, he couldn't help but go down that road with his next text.

Do you not want to talk anymore :(?

He sent the text with a sad face and anxiously awaited for her to text him back. It was a couple moments before he got it though.

NO WAY! Where would you get that idea silly kitty O,O

He let out a sigh of relief at her response. He had to admit he kinda jumped the gun there.

Uh well you said it feels weird talking to me hehe..

Well I meant like I don't know what to expect from you. The Adrien you is sweet and kind while the Chat you is corny and flirty. I honestly still can't believe you're the same person.

Hold up! His jokes and puns weren't corny!...they weren't. I mean who else could come up with Clawsome puns. No one that's who.

First my puns are amazing. Second I was thinking the same thing… Marinette you're so different from Ladybug. You're shy and—

Sent.

Holy Catserolles! He accidentally pressed the send button because he was typing too fast. He tried to add on the next part of his text but she responded too quickly.

Oh...I see

Dang it. He had to be quick.

Sorry I accidentally pressed the send button before I got my message across.

Marinette you're so shy and cute while Ladybug is confident...actually now that I think about it you weren't so different from your alter ego. There were times as both Adrien and Chat I witnessed you break from your shell and save the day. You were like a whole new person...you were like Ladybug.

It got me sometimes when you would act differently with others and Chat. Every time I was Adrien I just figured you didn't like me when you shut down.

He sent the paragraph text to her. He hoped the ending was okay and that she would realize he wasn't insulting her or anything.

Ooh okay :) I understand.

And um...the reason why I acted differently around you was because...I had the biggest crush on you.

Adrien eyes nearly popped out of their sockets when he read the text. His Lady was crushing on him? Was she still? He had to find that out.

You had feelings for me? Do you still?…

Adrien sat there in another panic as he awaited her response. It felt like hours as he waited and waited for Marinette's text.

He nearly jumped when he heard the ding of his phone going off. He hadn't realized he was holding his breath the whole time.

..yes..

His phone dinged again as she sent another text after that. It was longer though.

It's completely okay if you don't feel the same way! I'm not crying or anything—I mean I won't cry! Like it's just a crush not like I love you or anything!

That threw him off.

He could bet it must've took everything from Marinette to build up the confidence to admit her feelings.

Haha it's okay Marinette I get it ;). And yes I do furrl the same.

Really!? Um I was wondering… I don't think it's possible but you know the annual Christmas ball? Well I was wondering if you would go with me…

He couldn't believe it. Marinette was asking him out! He remembered the annual ball, he had to admit he forgot about it.

Sure, when is it?

That's the thing...it's tonight at 7:00

Hmm..that was a problem. He was Adrien Agreste and Chat Noir… but he needed Adrien. His dad would have something for him to wear tonight.

I'll be there Marinette ;)!

With Marinette

I'll be there Marinette ;)!

Marinette let out a squeal as she read Adrien's text message. She couldn't believe everything was going so well. It was only the morning but this was the best day ever and nothing could ruin it.

She texted Adrien a goodbye before she began texting Alya the good news.

Let's just say Alya was just as happy as her.

Later that day

Marinette had just finished the last touches to her dress and was trying it on. She had to admit it was perfect for her. It was a short V-neck Chiffon with red and white stripes along it.

Tikki flew off the bed to praise her friend.

"Marinette! Your dress is perfect!"

"Thanks Tikki!"

"Adrien's gonna love it!"

"I hope you're right.."

Marinette then heard her mama and papa calling for her in the bakery.

"Marinette, your dates here!" she heard her Papa yell.

"Coming!"

Marinette made her way downstairs into the bakery to find her parents standing next to her da—

"Luka!?"


A/N: Oh my god. R.I.P Marinette you got yourself into a kitty situation xD.(I tried with the puns hehehe.

Till next time my guys!
