To all the people that even have a slight confusion or question about the story, just ask in the review section; if there is something unsaid that I need to fix then I will do my best to fix it. Also if you go through the reviews look for my comment and it might answer some of your questions; for all the lazy ones who won't check I basically said everything I thought was a problem that I was going to fix in the finale of the story. For more info, just look for the comment. Anyways, enjoy chapter 10!
Adrien and Marinette ran inside to protect the children, the three kids began to scream as glass shattered and all things off the floor were now falling onto the floor. Adrien guided them through hallways of broken glass, when he saw the akuma; it was a giant blob of earth, getting larger and more powerful everytime it swallowed something like a car or house. Marinette began running away with her children, carrying Emma and Louis. Adrien went behind the house and transformed, just as Marinette was about to be crushed by earth Chat Noir propelled the being away with his staff, lifted up Marinette and her children and took them to Le Grand (Bourgeois hotel).
Apparently other citizens had come to the hotel to be safer and it was now in lockdown, hotel staff came up and guided the children towards the doors. "Take them to everyone else, I just need to make a private phone call."
"Yes ma'am, don't be too long."
"I won't. Thank you!"
The second she was alone she pulled out her cell phone and called Alya, "I recognise this number, is this you Ladybug?"
"Alya! I need you and Nino to step in, tell your work you are feeling sick. I'll call Nino, I have some other business that I must take care off."
"Your in charge Ladybug. I won't let you down!"
"I know you won't, goodbye Alya."
"Wait! How are we supposed to capture the akuma?"
"I'll be there in 5 or 10 minutes, I just need someone to help Chat keep the city from being flattened."
"Fair, bye Ladybug."
Marinette looked through her phone and typed Nino's number into the cell, "before you ask anything, it's me Ladybug. I'm hoping Alya gave you the turtle miraculous because I'm calling upon Rena Rouge and Carapace. Find the commotion and find its akuma, I should be there by then."
"Yeah ok, see you there."
She repeated her action with Nino and within minutes they were on the scene, if you squinted you could make out Rena amputating its head multiple times with her flute and Carapace temporarily blinding the thing with his shell. Tikki emerged from Marinette's satchel, "I thought you said no more Alya and Nino because their identities were revealed to Hawkmoth!"
"It's been almost a decade Tikki! They have their own miraculous; besides out of everyone in Paris Alya is always the most in danger and she ends out fine."
"You're not by her side every hour of the day you used to Marinette."
"Exactly why I gave her a miraculous, so she could protect herself when necessary."
"Have you ever thought that maybe Hawkmoth knew Nino had a miraculous and guessed he has one now and he'd go for someone without a miraculous close to both of them?"
"Who are you suggesting Tikki?"
"You Marinette."
As if on cue, a large metallic bang was heard behind her. Tikki hid and she slowly turned around, she stared in horror as modern day Hawkmoth stood tall over her. "Miss Dupain-Cheng, I hear you and Mrs Lahiffe are quite close. Care to join me as bait for today?"
"Yikes you really never socialise do you?"
"Do you not know who I am?"
"Oh yeah, you're the bastard who keeps causing the butterfly infestation. We've already got a pigeon problem so just take a break on the akumatising for a change? I mean it's been like 12 years and you still haven't made any progress on defeating or obtaining the miraculous of creation and destruction."
"Why are you so calm? You are standing before a magical superior being at least 2 feet taller than you who has had over a decade of experience."
"Aaaand how far has that experience gotten you?"
"I took down the last of the miraculous guardians!"
"Ok wasn't he like 200 years old?"
"Yes but he was a magical being!"
"So it took you and Mayura; two fully grown adults with miraculouses, to take down and old man in half an hour. Plus isn't Ladybug the last guardian?"
Marinette got out her phone (Marinette's trackable phone) and opened Nino's number typed in: I know you hero, Le grand, Hawkmoth is in front of me. Send help She sent the message and could see 3 heroes retreat from the villain and come hurtling towards the hotel. "Do you want to know why I'm so smug and smooth right now?"
"Yes. Please, actually. It's bothering me."
"Because I know someones always got my back!"
She shoulder-charged and tackled him over the railing, awestruck by the fact that a mortal women would even dare oppose him. He didn't bother to fight, until she was put into a green hexagon ball and was hit in the head with a flute and spanked with a staff. Being the guardian, she knew how to take down the shell; she put her hand on it and called to Wayzz, he opened the shell and she transformed. Just when Hawkmoth couldn't be in an any worse position; Ladybug yo-yo's around the corner faster than the speed of life making both her feet make contact with that dumb metal head mask.
He threw his can at Chat but he just deflected it easily, Hawkmoth was just about ready to surrender when the sand monster swallowed the entire group letting Hawkmoth escape. Not one of them could stop him cowardly running away. "Dammit we were so close!"
"Yeah, it would've been pretty cool if we beat Hawkmoth on re-recruitment day 2."
Chat stood up, "I'll do the honours of checking up on her afterward, I assume she'd be pretty shaken after a date with Hawkmoth."
"I've met Marinette before, she's pretty emotionally strong she'll be fine."
"Wouldn't that make her a target Ma'am?"
"Trust me guys, Marinette will be fine. We can all count on that!"
