Author's Note: I have to make up for lost time one way or another right?

Ladybug and Chat Noir became the iconic duo they once were, the news was flooded with stories on how Chat Noir was back in town and had a relationship with Ladybug stronger than ever. He did have to get used to his new powers, the rules were that he could only use a Cataclysm every 5 minutes so his ring could recharge and didn't require detransformation. Adrien was walked down the street more merrier than ever when he was greeted by a familiar and angry face. Alya.

"Start talking Agreste."

He started to sweat. "Talk? Talk about what?"

"Ok Adrien, as your friend I can promise I have no cameras or recorders or anything. This is completely on my own accord. Now, you know what I'm here about so it's either talk now or I show you the evidence at home."

"Considering I have no idea what you're talking about I chose home."

"Good choice. I really wanted you to pick that."

She dragged him by his arm to her and Nino's place a few blocks down. "So uhh, where's Nino?"

"He's in the studio recording stuff with Jagged stone"

"Neat, so where's your evidence?"

Alya guided him to an office area closed off with a homemade sign that said; Confidential, Alya Only!

There was a cork board with pins and string along with a modern leather office chair with a laser pointer. "You know about the return of Chat Noir?"

"Yeah. He's back isn't he? News must be good for you now."

"Thanks for that."

"You should be thanking Chat Noir."

"I am. Don't play shit with me Agreste, I am Paris' greatest reporter, I'm just disappointed I didn't prove it when I first suspected it."

"Evidence Césaire."

"Ok fine, this is you a week before you left and 2 magazine clippings from back then. See that ring? You never took it off, and it has a similar shape to Chat Noir's ring of destruction. This is your first model picture in Sydney, no ring. And I checked the security cameras when you stopped by yesterday, no ring. Chat Noir appears that night, now you have that ring, you look and sound exactly like him and have the same disappearance and reappearance times. I can also vividly remember you used to talk to your bag and jacket every now and then, then Max with Markov and it just became too obvious that you would be him. Coincidence that you had 457 photos of Ladybug on your phone as a kid and now a Paw and Ladybug symbol is your lock screen."

"How the fuck did you know about..."

"One of the pros of being a prime time reporter, you get VIP access to all information past and present."

"Shit. Ok fine you got me, just don't tell anyone I just got things back on track with Ladybug."

"Wait, you actually are Chat Noir?!"

"Wait, what was this about?"

"I was only like 30 percent sure but hell yeah! I know no one is ever going to know this but woo hoo!"

"So you'll keep it a secret?"

"Of course! Can't have you fleeing again can I?"

"Now all you've got to do is figure out Hawkmoth's so all this shit can be over! And maybe Ladybug's while you're at it?"

"I didn't even think about Hawkmoth, I've never actually tried to investigate it. Huh, I guess I could help this city a whole lot if I did..."

"Seriously?! You only cared about ruining the heroes but not the villain?"

"That makes me like a mini Hawkmoth doesn't it? Wait can I meet your Kwami?"

"Oh riiight! You were Rena Rouge until Chloe went insane and had a massive fit that lasted years."

"Yours truely! So what's his or her name?"

"His names Plagg, he's a real pain if you ask me. But he does mean well, I wouldn't rather any other Kwami over him."

"Aww, Thanks Adrien!"

"Good Afternoon to you too Plagg."

"OH MAH GOOOOD, HE'S THE CUTEST GALAXY CAT I'VE EVER SEEN!"

"I like this chick Adrien, can we keep her?"

"No Plagg we are not keeping her, she's not ours to keep. She belongs to Nino."

"The dude guy? The one who smelt funny?"

"Yes Plagg, the one who smelled funny."

A timer was heard in the distance, it was for and oven. Inside was something wrapped in Aluminium foil. "Yes! Cheese is ready!"

"Alya, you just caused doom."

"CHEEEEEEEESE!"

"Plagg likes Cheese? He has good tastes, but I doubt he likes the cheese I like."

"Plagg is in love with Camembert."

"No way! Me too! That's what was in the oven at 100°F (about 40°C)"

"Nothing better than aged, runny Camembert. Adrien! Your friend has amazing taste!"

Alya's work phone buzzed, she put down the cheese and ran to it, the message read; Alya! Akuma attack at the studio only a few hundred metres away from your place, take your camera and film that Akuma!

"Oh no."

"What's wrong Alya?"

"Akuma at the studio, Nino's there!"

"We gotta run, need a lift?"

"Oh yes please thank you!"

"No problemo. Plagg, Claws Out!"
