Sorry for the wait people, I forgot about this fanfic XD
Ram Paige had never felt like this before. At school she always felt pressured to copy everybody else, at home she felt like she always had to help her brother and mother. But now, as she was part of a battle that quiet literally held the future of Paris on its shoulders, she felt free. Weird how that works, huh?
Looking to her left, Ram Paige saw Tigress using her claws to scale the building, and get somehow keeping pace with her and Rena Rouge. She had to admit, she was impressed!
"Stop," Rena Rouge held out her arm to stop the girls. " This is where the others are hiding."
Ram Paige looked down to see that they had been standing on Bourgeois Hotel, and she quickly remembered Queen Bee as the infamous Chloe Bourgeois. She just hoped that the girl wasn't in a snarky mood again.
Rena Rouge jumper onto the balcony below, and Tigress and Ram Paige quickly followed. Looking inside they saw a large room surrounded by chairs. Probably the meeting room.
"Rena!" Queen Bee called, interrupting her own complaint of "where is that girl!"
Ladybug stood up and started walking to the new heroines. "Rena Rouge! You did it!" A wide smile spread on her face, and she almost looked like she wanted to clap.
"Good thing too," a solemn-looking Chat Noir- Wait, solemn Chat Noir?! This must be bad.
"I'm sorry we don't have much time for introductions, but we need to find the villain before he wrecks anymore havoc!"
Ram Paige nodded her head, and Tigress mirrored the action. Then, one by one, the hero's proceeded to slip back through the door and onto the porch. Ram Paige noticed Queen Bee was walking weirdly, carefully favoring her left foot.
"Are you okay?" Ram Paige asked, walking closer to the blond and allowing her shoulder for support.
"What are you doing?!" Queen Bee asked accusingly, but still deciding to lean on her shoulder.
"Helping," Ram Paige responded softly, a smile forming on her lips. Chloe really didn't understand helping somebody else just for the sake of helping, but that's why she has a miraculous; to help her learn.
"Er, where exactly is this villain?" Tigress asked, crossing her arms. The Miracle Team began looking around, surprised the villain hadn't been right there to greet them.
"We should split up," Ladybug said, still looking left and right for a shadowy figure. "Carapace and Rena, you head over to the louvre. Ram Paige and Tigress, you head over to the Eiffel Tower... me Chat and Bee will head over to the junior high school. After we scout out our areas, meet up back here."
Everybody nodded before heading out to their own locations, but Tigress and Ram Paige hesitated, looking to each other. Neither one really felt comfortable being in a high position, so they waited for the other to take charge: it was Tigress who finally did it.
"We should get going, but I think we should come from different directions in case he spots one us on the way down, so he won't see the other one," Ram Paige just nodded in responce, sliding her rings off her arm to show she was ready.
"Your a quiet one, aren't you?" Tigress said, folding her arms. Ram Paige decided to prove her point by wordlessly smiling.
Thus, the two girls set off to Paris's greatest landmark. All the buildings they passed by where borded up and locked down, and the world-famous city bow looked like a ghost-town.
"This is just sad..." Ram Paige muttered, subconsciously touching the light brown horns now perching on her head. Tigress nodded in agreement, but continued looking at the Effiel Tower.
"Hey, uh, what's that?" She asked, pointing at a black figure hovering right at the door of the tower. The two girls axchanged a glance. "So should we call the others?" Tigress asked, holding out her hand to reveal the communication device built into the glove. Ram Paige nodded Tigress double-tapped the screen.
"Did you find him?" Ladybug's voice came through the transmition.
"Yeah, we-" Tigress didn't finish her sentence before an icey hand smashed the glass screen with long, talon-like black nails, and snapped his hand up to her neck. The icey cold sensation running through her body was more of a shock then the sudden lack of oxygen, and even though it only lasted a second, the chill reverberated through her like a constant ring.
After recovering for a second, Tigress whipped around to see Ram Paige gripping the odd akuma cape, trying to pull him back. The akuma whipped around and started slashing at her with his long claws. Ram Paige matched his steps with her own and kept on walking backwards, only too aware of the space left on the building lessening by the second.
Tigress quickly jumped onto the akuma's back and clawed at his shoulders, trying to get a grip. Even with her own claws, she couldn't sink them into the cloth of his outfit becuase the damp material caused her to slide right back down. The villan quickly threw her off of his back, unprepared for the sliver hoop The was flung over his head and quickly shrunk to close over his arms.
The akuma let out a low growl as Hawkmoth's voice entered his head.
Phantom, you have managed to best the five great hero's of Paris: will you really let yourself be beaten by a couple of little girls?
Phantom growled, refusing to be prey to Hawkmoths taunts. So he dropped to his knees and scratched the roof of the building with his prestigious claws, creating an eerie noise that split that night. Both Tigress and Ram Paige covered their ears and squeezed their eyes shut, so Phantom took the opportunity to turn into a cloud-like substance without being pounced on, and slid out of the hoop.
By the time the girls opened their eyes, Phantom was gone.
Ram Paige let out a sigh and sat down, and Tigress rolled up next to her grasping her knees.
"You know, we still need to talk to the others, and my communication device is broken..." Tigress began, bending over and taking a seat.
"O-oh! Right!" Ram Paige quickly grabbed on of her hoops and pressed a little button on the side, and a projection popped up in her middle of the circle.
"Are you girls all right?!" Ladybug called through the transmission sounding frantic. "When you hung up we contacted the others, and none of them could see the akuma so we figured you must have found him!"
"Not really..." Ram Paige began. "More like he found us" Tigress finished her sentence for her.
"You you alright?" This time it was Chat Noir's voice.
"What do you think, my feline friend?" Tigress joked, a grin spread across of face. Ladybug audiably groaned and Ram Paige shook her head.
"Well talk to the other group and all of us will meet up at the Eiffel Tower. See you there, bug out!"
And the call ended. The two girls just sat in silence for a minuet.
Before Ram Paige let out a shriek.
