I let out a yawn as I slowly start to wake up, that was a nice nap, I was about to sit up but I could feel a strange weight on my forehead. At first I thought it was Chilly since I felt something cold on my head, but I also felt it on my chest, and I could feel 5 small weights on my stomach. That meant there were 6 small magical creatures on me...wait what!? I open my eyes and look at what was on me, to my shock I come face to face with a sleeping Kwami I've never seen before! What, how, when, why!?
I picked up the ice cold Kwami on my forehead, I was use to holding cold things since Chilly was usually cold as well, so it didn't bother me to much. I held the new Kwami above me by her tail as they started to wake up, she looked down at me with bright violet eyes. She had white fur like Chilly, actually she looked almost exactly like Chilly. White fur, adorable black tipped wolf ears, and a cute white wolf tail. Surprisingly her eyes were a bright purple unlike Chilly who had blue eyes, and instead of have a light blue accent to her fur, this one had a purple accent to it.
"Hello, and who might you be." I asked her as she looked down at me and smiled.
"I'm Nelly, the White Wolf Kwami." She said excitedly before flying free from my fingers and lands on my forehead again. "Thank you for freeing me!"
"What?" I ask confused by what she meant, wait how did I know she was a girl? Questions for later.
"You freed me from your Miraculous! Thank you so much!" She said happily.
"When did I do that? And you can't be the White Wolf Kwami, that's Chilly, and how come you look like her?"
"About a week ago, when your Miraculous lit up, that was when you freed me, I wasn't able to come out before because the Wolf Miraculous didn't have enough power to let both of us out. Once you used more Kwami, the Wolf Miraculous was able to handle more power, and I look like Chilly because Chilly is my twin sister."
"Kwami can be twins?" Chilly never mentioned she had a twin.
"Yup, and I'm so happy to finally meet you in person! I wanted to thank you for taking care of my sister while I was asleep." She said nuzzling my forehead.
"No problem, wait, how do you know about me taking care of Chilly?"
"I saw everything you did when I was in the Miraculous." She said.
"Wait, everything?"
"Yes, everything."
"Chilly is the one who's been putting snowflake patterns on my clothes right?"
"Oh yeah, but she just wanted to thank you for being a good friend."
I look down at Chilly who was still on my chest sound asleep, I pet her head and saw her smile in her sleep. "So, now that both of you are out, what dose that mean for my powers?"
"Well, since you were only using one of us, you were only able to use half of the full power of the Wolf Miraculous. Now that you have both of us you'll be as strong as you should be and your Sub-Zero will be even stronger as well." Nelly explained.
"Cool, well, I look forward to getting to know you." I look at the other Kwami and notice it was still night time, "We can still get another few hours of sleep."
Nelly yawns, "That sounds nice." She replies before we both close our eyes and fall back to sleep.
Suffice to say I woke up with a teary eyed Chilly crying about how I replaced her in her sleep, but once Nelly explained everything she was happy to meet her sister. But I have to wonder, how many more Kwami am I going to have to look after? Master Fu said there were more than the ones I have already, but how many exactly? I glance at the record player for a moment before I turn away, nope, not today.
I look back at the Kwami as they were greeting Nelly, Chilly and Duusu where clinging to my arms again as I tried to think of what to do to pass the time. I watch as the 4 Kwami not clinging to my arms were talking to one another before Nelly said I should use her in addition to the other Kwami so I can get a feel for the new power I would be getting.
"Alright then, who's ready to patrol Paris?" I ask as they all raise their...what ever they have. "Sweet." I hold up my arm in front of me with the miraculous facing away from me. "Chilly, Nelly, let it snow!" My wolf outfit appears on me and I felt stronger then I normally would as Wolf, "Wayzz, protect! Trixx, mystify! Pollen, bug out! Duusu, blow them away!" The colorful additions to my outfit appear before I made my way to the roof and look around. "Let's see, where can I go?" I ask myself before I spot the Eiffel Tower in the distance, might as well.
I jump from building to building till I arrive at the tower, or more specifically the large stare case nearby, a lot of people there so I didn't want to get to close.
"Stop thief!" I turn to look where the shout came from, I spot a man running from a woman and her child with a purse in his hands. Knowing what was going on I pulled out my chakrams and threw one towards the man, the wire connecting chakrams wraps around the man causing him to fall to the ground with a grunt. He tried to get free but stopped when I walked over.
"There's no use in trying to break that wire, it's indestructible." I look at the purse in his hand, "I believe this doesn't belong to you." I grab the purse before I walk over to the woman he took it from. I return the purse to her before doing a small bow, "M'lady." She thanks me before I walk back to the man and pick him up by his shirt, several onlookers started clapping as I walked away towards a police officer who walked over. I hand the man over before wishing the officer a nice day and continuing my stroll through Paris. People kept thanking me and asking for autographs as I explored, it was kinda like my usual day in America, hope I don't accidentally sign my name instead of Wolf.
As I walked I couldn't help but notice a certain bakery from a few weeks ago, one where a certain red and black super heroine lives, I don't want to disturb her so I should probably find another way to go. I turn to walk away but I notice a group of people who were following me with cameras, don't need this kind of attention right now, I duck into an alleyway as I turn a corner. The group goes past me and I let out a sigh, I think I've been Wolf for long enough, I should save the Kwami power for when I need it. "Alright, snow fall." I say the command to get my outfit to disappear.
A few seconds pass before I realize I was still in my Wolf outfit, "Snow fall." I say again but nothing happens, "Snow fall!" I say urgently but nothing happens. What the heck is going on! "Snow Fall!" Why am I not turning back!?
I take a few deep breaths to calm myself down, freaking out won't help me. I need to figure out what's wrong, or get some help, only Master Fu isn't around to help me this time. Well, I do have another option, I glance at the bakery across the street, she probably won't be happy that I know it's her...unless I play dumb. I smirk, lets see what LB is up to on her day off.
No pov
Marinette was currently on her phone behind the counter of the bakery waiting for a customer. She stopped when she heard the bell indicating someone walking in. "Welcome, how can I help...you?" She stopped when she saw Wolf close the door behind him and turn towards her with a smile.
"Hi there!" He said happily, "Now before you say anything, yes I'm Wolf, no I will not give an autograph, and do you think Ladybug would like ladybug themed cupcakes?" He asked.
Marinette was confused to say the least, the last person she thought she would see today would be Wolf, especially asking for cupcakes for her as Ladybug. "Um, I don't-"
"Oh right!" He said realizing something, he pulled out a large stack of cash and placed it on the counter. "This should be enough, right?"
Marinette looked at the money and saw it was more than enough for what he wanted, "This is more than enough."
"Great, keep the change." He pulled out a pen and a small piece of paper and wrote down his number and gave it to Marinette, "Call me when it's ready." He said with a wink before walking out of the store and into the streets.
Marinette was still processing what happened when her phone started ringing surprising her, she tossed her phone into the air before desperately trying to catch it. Once she had a grip on it she saw the familiar image of her best friend, Alya. "Alya you're not gonna believe what just happened."
"What's up?"
"Wolf just walked in and ordered over a dozen ladybug themed cupcakes to give to Ladybug!"
". . ."
"Alya?"
". . ."
"Are you-" She was cut off when the door flew open to reveal a panting Alya and she tried to catch her breath.
"Tell...me...everything!" She said between gasps.
"Wha-"
"Everything!"
One explanation later (15 minutes)
Once Marinette finished explaining, while also making Ladybug themed cupcakes, and letting Alya catch her breath, Alya was looking at her in shock, "Do you know what this means!?" Alya asked her excitedly.
"He want's to give Ladybug cupcakes?" Marinette asked not sure what else it meant. She was putting on the red icing on the first cupcake.
"No girl, he has a crush on Ladybug." Alya stated causing Marrinetts eyes to widen.
"W-what!? No way. How can you tell from getting someone cupcakes!?" Marinette was trying to be calm and not give away the fact that she was Ladybug.
"Nobody gets someone a dozen cupcakes for no reason, especially ones themed after that person. How would you feel if someone got you that?"
"You have no idea." Marinette whispered to herself.
"Huh?"
"Oh, um, I said I have no idea. Why would someone get me cupcakes designed like me in the first place?"
"If they had a crush on you, that's why!" Alya then started to go on about how big this would be on her blog, while Marinette was getting nervous.
"Does he have a crush on me? But I'm into someone else, I can't be in a relationship, but of I tell him he'll be heart broken, and then Hawkmoth could Akumatize him!" Marinette mentally shouted at herself, she was currently imagining a black themed wolf destroying Paris with black snow and ice, "Ugh, what am I supposed to do!?" She let out a mental sigh, "Okay, I just need to tell him I'm not interested without hurting his feelings, that'll work...right?" Marinette then started to pay attention to Alyas voice again.
"What do you think?" Alya asked.
"Um, yeah totally." She replied hoping Alya would believe she was listening the whole time.
"Great, thanks girl I owe you big time for this!" Alya pulled Marinette into a hug just as she finished the last cupcake. "This interview is gonna be great!"
"I guess I have to let Alya do an interview with Wolf? Shouldn't be to hard." She put the cupcakes in a box before looking Alya seemed to realize something.
"How are you supposed to tell him their ready?"
"He gave me his number." She held up the paper and typed it into her one while it was Alyas turn to be shocked.
With Wolf
Wolf let out a sigh as he rested on top of the Eiffel Tower, "I wonder what Master Fu is up to right now?" He said to himself. "...Probably magical stuff." A moment later his Miraculous lit up, he looked at it before pressing the top gem as a holographic screen appeared showing him that he was getting a call from Marinette. "Hey Marinette, what's up?"
"Y-your cupcakes are done."
Why does she sound so nervous? He thought to himself. "You alright? You sound nervous?"
"No I'm fine."
He could tell she was lying but didn't want to pressure her, "Alright, I'll be there in a few minutes, thanks again." He hung up and jumped to his feet before leaning forwards and started free falling over the edge. Once he was halfway to the bottom he turned in the air and kicked off the side of the tower and shot towards where Marinette was, once he landed Wolf dusted himself off before walking inside. The moment he opened the door Alya was in front of him with her phone recording him.
"I'm here with Wolf, one of the three super heroes defending Paris from Hawkmoth! Anything you want to say to the people of Paris?"
Wolf blinked a few times before he realized what she had said. "Um, hey there." He said with a smile and a wave. "Nice weather we're having."
"Would you mind answering a few questions?" Alya pleaded.
Wolf thought for a moment, "Sure, I have a few minutes, but only a few for now. I have things I have to do today so we can schedule an actual interview another time of you want?" He offered with a smile.
"Sounds great!" Alya said excitedly, "So, Wolf. Tell us, why are you protecting Paris? What made you want to do it?"
"Well, I can't just stand by and do nothing when I see people in danger, and if I can use these powers for good then that's what I'll do."
"Why are parts of your outfit are different colors than a wolf, unlike Ladybug and Cat Noir?"
"I figured an all white outfit seemed weird so I decided I wanted to make it a bit more colorful, I think I made the right choice."
"Last question, what are your feeling for Ladybug?"
"She's pretty nice, and a good partner, and she's nice to be around." Unknown to him Marinette was blushing like crazy just out of his sight. "Sorry to cut this short but I really need to go." He picks up the box of cupcakes, he put his Miraculous next to Alyas phone and a notification popped up letting her know Wolf was added as a contact. "Call me when you want to set up that interview, thanks again Marinette. I have to go meet Ladybug." Wolf walked out the door before jumping to the top of a building and out of sight.
"This is big!" Alya said excitedly before she ran out the door, "I have to upload this! See you later Marinette!" She called back.
Marinette watched Alya walk away before running upstairs, her parents thankfully had come back allowing her to leave. Once she was upstairs Tikki appeared, "Hey Marinette, what's wrong?"
"I think Wolf might have a crush on me?"
"Really?" Tikki asked a bit confused, "But you two barely know each other."
"He came in and ordered a dozen Ladybug themed cupcakes and said she's nice to be around."
"Oh...maybe he does have a crush."
"Yeah, but I can't just reject him or else he might get Akumatized!" Marinette fell onto her bed.
"You just have to tell him in a way that won't hurt his feelings."
"I know, but how."
"Just tell him the truth, that always works best."
"Alright then, Tikki! Spots on!"
Jason pov
Let's see, do I tell her what's wrong first or offer the cupcakes? I sat on top of a building as I thought about what I was going to do. Ladybug should be here soon so I'll have to-"Um, Wolf?" Speak if the devil.
I turn and see Marinette now in her Ladybug outfit, I smirk, "Ladybug just the person I wanted to see."
"Oh? And why's that?"
"Well, the thing is, well...I need your help with something."
Ladybug looked confused for a moment, "Wait what? I though-" She quickly cut herself off.
"What?"
"Nothing, it's just." She pulled out her yoyo and opened it to its phone setting and showed me the Ladyblog. I look at the latest article and my eye widen, the latest story was about Wolf having a crush on Ladybug and how I was buying cupcakes for her to confess my feelings.
A few moments pass before I burst out laughing, once I calm down I wipe away the tears, "Oh, I needed that." I look up at Ladybug and hand her back the yoyo. "Don't take this the wrong way but I'm not interested in you that way. I'm not really looking for romance at the moment, we've only met a few weeks ago, and I'm more of a get to know you kinda guy." I clarify, "I got these cupcakes because I want to ask you for help and I figured something like this might helping my chances in you saying yes."
She blinked a few times before letting out a sigh of relief, "Oh good, I was worried about you getting heart broken."
"Don't worry about it, but I'll have you know that it would take more than a rejection to make me get Akumatized."
"Fare enough." She sat down next to me, "So what do you need?"
"Well, the thing is...I can't turn off my Miraculous."
". . ."
". . ."
"What!?"
"It's stuck on and I don't know how to turn it off."
"Really?"
"Yeah, check it. Snow fall!" Again, nothing happened. "See?"
Her eyes widen, "You realize you would have revealed who you were if that had worked right."
"Oh...right." Thank god that didn't happen. Wait can Kwami be considered gods cause I'm pretty sure Tikki was created when existence was created? What do Chiily and Nelly represent? More questions for later.
"So what exactly do you want me to do?"
"The only thing that might work is using up all the energy in the Miraculous, but that will cause a lot of problems if I'm not careful."
"What, why? You only have to wait five minutes before-" She stopped and seemed to realize a few times my I used my powers and didn't worry about the time limit.
"My Miraculous has twin Kwami, meaning I have an extra charge for my powers, one sub-zero would be no problem to contain, but more than that and things start getting complicated. Plus I'm pretty sure if I just started using my powers for no reason I might cause a panic and give Hawkmoth more targets for Akumas, although I guess fighting multiple villains would help." Something hits the back of my head, "Ow!" I rub the back of my head and look at Ladybug.
"Don't even think about it." She said with a stern voice.
"Don't worry I wasn't gonna."
We sat there for a few minutes trying to come up with a safe way for me to use my powers, while also enjoying the cupcakes, man these things are good.
Meanwhile
Adrian was sitting on his couch thinking about Ladybug, "I'm telling you Plagg, I think she's the one."
"Mmhm." Plagg hummed as he scrolled through a website to order some cheese.
"I can't think of anyone else I want to spend the rest of my life with."
"Cool." Once Plagg ordered the cheese he closed the website and was about to fly away but another browser caught his eye, a certain blog Adrian had been looking at earlier.
"Nothing is gonna keep us apart." Adrian declared.
"You might wanna rethink that." Plagg replied causing Adrian to stand up.
"What? Why?"
"Take a look at this."
Adrian moved over to the computer to read the latest post, Plagg could swear he heard the exact moment Adrian's heart shattered into a million pieces.
Back with Wolf and Ladybug, no pov
"Wait I think I got it!" Ladybug announces and jumped to her feet.
"What is it?"
"What if you use up all your power in one shot!?" She replies putting his hands on his hips and smiled.
"I guess that could work, but where should I aim it?" Ladybug pointed to several clouds over Paris at the moment, Wolf smirked, "Alright then, have your Lucky Charm ready, I've never done this before so I don't know what will happen." He close his eyes and focus on the energy from the Miraculous, after a few moments he could feel the presence of the 6 Kwami he had. His outfit seemed to glow white as his hair moved in an invisible wind, frost spread across the roof of the building as Ladybug took a few steps back. The temperature dropped drastically allowing her to see her breath. Wolfs eyes snap open making Ladybug flinch, his irises were glowing bright white. He raised his hands and looked up at the sky which had scattered clouds. "Sub-Zero!"
A bolt of pure white energy shot out of his hands and into the sky, once the bolt hit the cloud the energy spread across the it. Ladybug and Wolf watched nervously for anything that would be a problem, but after a few moments nothing seemed to be happening. Wolf fell to his knees and was panting, his Miraculous beeped indicating that he had five minutes left before he turned back, "Oh thank goodness that worked." He said trying to catch his breath. "That took a lot more out of me than I thought it would."
"Well, at least you'll be changing back soon." She said with a smile.
"Thanks, looks like I didn't need Lucky Charm after all."
"Don't mention it, but you're gonna have to find a way to change back without doing this every time."
"I'll ask my Kwami once I change back." Wolf got to his feet before pulling out his chakrams, "I owe you one Ladybug!" He yells out before jumping off the edge and swinging away back to Master Fu's place. Ladybug waved goodby before heading back home.
But if either of them had stayed a bit longer they might have noticed the cloud Wolf had hit wasn't moving, bolts of white energy seemed to be moving through it as well. A moment later the cloud started growing in size, the temperature around it dropping as it did so. All this was happening above an unaware Paris, but by tomorrow, things were going to be very different.
