Author's Note: FINALLY! It's all starting to come together! You may not get it now, but the next few chapters are going to be very enjoyable to write and hopefully read. Chapter 13 will definitely be in the top 3 favourite chapters of this story, but who knows. I might end up splitting the finale into 2 or more chapters, either way expect Hawkmoth, Darkness, Relationships, and much more ahead! School was just partially cancelled and so far I am getting as much outside time as I can before it gets restricted. Enjoy the chapter!

Adrien lay on his bed, he couldn't eat, even Plagg and his gimmicks couldn't even get a smile from him. He had just dumped one of the greatest women in history because of a measly crush he had on a girl 8 years ago as a hormonal teenager. Marinette was all he could think about, her taste was familiar, Adrien had never kissed her before. As an adult, he could feel the strong connection between them. As Adrien, his trapped side, Marinette held back, as if she was hiding something. With Chat Noir, Marinette was at ease, she was calm and safe, was it his superpowers.

Adrien had no clue, the only thing he did know was that he was slowly falling for her, Ladybug's seriousness was now unattractive to him. If he had to chose to love on of them, 8/9 times he would chose Marinette. He was tempted to bolt back and kiss her again, but she probably was just confused, no one could ever be friends with both his identities and hold them close to their heart. Knocking echoed his apartment door room, thinking it was room service, he tidied his hair and put on a shirt. To his shock it was another face that opened his door.

"Myer? Is that you?"

"Evening Agreste, you talked so highly of this place and it's residents, after I was fired I thought I may as well settle down here."

"You were fired?! Why?"

"I was the worst rookie assistant in the company, I was horrible at makeup and scheduling, I was bound to be fired until you specifically chose me as your assistant as I was walking out the door with my stuff. It's been a week since you left and I've gone through 4 different people as an assistant, so I was given the boot. You were the only one to give me a chance, I'd rather stay with you than anyone else."

That last sentence was said when they were out drinking together, it was 5 years into his business trip, and it was the 10th anniversary of his mother's death. Myer was comforting him as he downed his 5th glass of whiskey, that turned to him talking about his mother, his father, to the topic of akumas and then how much he missed the adrenaline of having to save yourself. "Have you ever been akumatised?"

"No, at least I can no remember it. Ladybuph wouldef save me anywais" *stupid voice*

"Of course, you're too calm, nice and kind to be akumatised. Every one else hates me, you were the only one to give me a chance, I'd rather stay with you than anyone else if there was an akuma here."

"Thafs wery noice of you Myer."

Myer kissed him, they both went to Adrien's apartment, that was the only time he had ever fornicated with someone after Ladybug, also the last time he did have sex. It took Myer a while to realise it was a mistake, she became dull after that. Now that she wasn't Adrien's assistant it wouldn't be weird if they hooked up. "Soo... Adrien," Myer made 2 fingers walk up Adrien's shoulder towards his collar, "now that I'm not your assistant, I can love you now. Right?"

Adrien looked down, "Is that why you came to Paris? So we could be together?"

"Well, yeah. After we hooked up you said we had to be professional because we work together, well we don't work together anymore."

"I'm flattered Myer, really. But there's a reason I came to Paris too, in this city lives the women of my dreams. I'm sorry but, that just isn't you, it never was."

"I was your assistant, you never hooked up with anyone, ever. Why me then? You felt the connection."

"Do you remember why I was drinking my sorrows out?"

"No?"

"It was the 10th anniversary of my Mother's death. On the day she just disappeared, no body, no certificate, not the slightest evidence of her existing except memories. Her single set of clothes were gone, and her ring had vanished. The only thing left was her memory and some photos, and I was so drunk, I barely remembered what happened, but I know we slept together and that pretty much it."

"Goodbye Adrien."

"Myer, don't-"

She slammed the door and stormed off, she needed someone to blame, someone to hate. She couldn't hate him, she couldn't hate the magical people he admired so much. She pulled out her phone and typed Adrien Agreste child,
multiple items came up. A few stood out to her, one was a picture of a young girl with dark hair and blue eyes, Adrien was wearing a dark suit with a feather derby hat. Adrien's allergic to feathers, she thought. Another was of the same girl and it was them both dressed as Ladybug and Chat Noir without masks, for a music video. Just when she was about to give up and beat up Gabriel Agreste for reproducing, she found another photo on a designing site, Adrien was about 15-16 and was standing next to the same girl wearing matching clothes; a red beret, navy shirt with white stripes and jeans with lots of jewellery.

"Her."

Hawkmoth's window opened with it's usual robot creak. "Yes, I frequent feeling. The need for love and revenge. Easy prey for my akuma, fly away little akuma, and evilise this broken heart!"

The purple butterfly infected her phone, Hawkmoth's voice spoke to her. "A newcomer to Paris I see, greetings young soul. I am Hawkmoth, I am giving you the power to find anything you wish. A person, and object, even a strong emotion. You will become Orientator, all I ask in return of power is the jewellery of Ladybug and Chat Noir, you up for the task?"

"Yes Hawkmoth, I will find Ladybug and Chat Noir, they'll be easy to find."

She clenched her fist and a wave of purple washed over her, her suit was yellow and green. It was mostly green with some weird lightning bolts north of her body.

"Rise Orientator!"
