- For everyone who read the first chapter 3, i'm sorry i accidentally wrote wrong at the end and therefore changed it to make sure it stays in-character since someone gave me that tip. Hopefully it's more accurate this time. So i will put a _ _in front of where i changed so you don't have to re-read things i didn't changed and it's only at the bottom of the page ^-^ -
If you have any suggestions or ideas on how i can improve or continue the story i would be really happy!. After this one i'm thinking of writing more about Adrien and Marinette and their relationship, and her friendship with Alya. So i would really love to hear what i could use for the next chapters! ^-^
Thanks for reading :3
"Ladybug what are you doing?" Alya said when ladybug jumped and threw her yoyo on all the cables and then placed the towel, that she picked up from the floor, and placed it on the camera. "Do the same on the other two cameras! That way he can't see us, maybe hear but not see at least" Ladybug said and pointed to the cameras. While Nino and alya went to cover the cameras Adrien went closer to Ladybug "What are you doing? You should leave, you only have less than a minute now." He said and pointed to the window, but she knew that any second now she would turn back and who knows how many people are outside there. "No, i can't leave you guys alone and i swear i will protect you all even if it means i have to do this." She said and smiled a little but blushed as well and looked away.
"OMG we're finally gonna see who is under that mask! Phone, phone where is my phone!?" Alya started to scream, luckily Ladybug knew she would try to film it so she took the phone before when she had the chance. "I know you want to know who i am, but i'm begging you now i want you three to look away until i have transformed back to Ladybug." Marinette tried to plead to her friends hoping they would understand this, but to no avail not with how much Alya wants to know. "No way! I've always wanted to know who is under that mask, how can i let this opportunity slip away" She said and then looked at Ladybug who was now showing a pained expression but trying to smile. She don't want them to be in danger for knowing that it's Marinette, and how would they react if they know how close she actually was.
Adrien gripped his arm now, he want to see really badly even tho she was asking us not to. He looked at Ladybug and his heart and mind was now battling each others, his mind tells him to look and find out who she is but is heart wants to do like she says. "Ladybug, i just want to know why can't we know who you are" Alya tried to ask, but she didn't answer and now the last signal that she was about to detransform rang. "Please" She said and they turned around all three of them, "I guess we can't deny it when you ask like that" Alya said and placed her hands on her hip with her back to Marinette.
And now the transformation was gone, She looked around to make sure she hadn't missed anything. But soon something was banging on the door, we had locked it trying to keep it out it seems like the key wasn't on the other side. "I know you're in there! and i will get your miraculous! Just wait for it Ladybug!" and elektromic laughed again. They still kept their back to her, So marinette tried to whisper to Tikki "Tikki, what should we do? I forgot to bring extra food for you" She said because she had realized she didn't have any food right now. "I don't know, but i can't transform in this condition i'm sorry marinette."
Marinette was now holding her friend and looked to her other friends "What should i do tikki? I can't show them who i am, but i can't just stay here like this" Marinette said and felt panic spreading in her body and mind, what if she won't be able to and they are not able to escape. "Marinette, i know i said you can't let anyone know but you don't have a choice now. You need to somehow get away and right now you don't have anything else to depend on except them" Tikki said but was very weak from the transformation.
"I'm sorry Tikki, if i had just been more careful this wouldn't have happened" Marinette said to tikki and hugged her feeling the sorrow fill her mind and throat. "It's okay, just be careful" She said and Marinette put her back in her bag "I will tikki" And Marinette looked to her friends. she sighed and looked with determination now towards them, "I'm sorry everyone, But i can't transform right now so we have to get out of here and i... I need your help to get out. Which means i can't hide who i am anymore." Marinette said in a loud voice, she knew that she had to somehow get by elektromic without him seeing her, but she can't alone while leaving them here alone. "Why can't you transform again?" Alya asked but no one turned around, And Marinette smiled at her friends back because she knows that even tho Alya wants to know she respected her wish which she now was breaking herself.
"The thing i get my power from is to exhausted to do anything and it needs a thing i forgot at home like always" She said and started to walk around them, before she could get in their field of vision Alya commented a comment that made it easier for Marinette to do this "You remind me of my best friend Marinette, she forgets everything and is clumsy i guess you two are somewhat alike" And alya laughed a little, and then while their expression changed when they saw the person Alya talked about. "Well, i guess we are somewhat alike" Marinette was now standing in front of them, "Ma- Ma- MARINETTE!?" They all three exclaimed.
"SHHHH" Marinette said trying to keep them from screaming. "Surprised? But we don't have time for this, we really need to get out but i can't be seen because he knows it was you three and ladybug. Which means he could figure out who i am and tell Papillion. We need to get to the lobby and then away fast, hopefully Chat noir will come soon to help but before that we will do what we can while i try to get the power back to transform, I can't do it without you guys" She said and looked at them, they are still shocked but Adrien was acting kinda weird but she was to busy trying to come up with a plan since it's more important.
-Andriens POV -
Ladybug was now behind me but without her transformation, which means she's in her true form. He could hear her talking to someone which must be her Kwami, but soon he hears a sigh coming from her. Could it be that she can't transform and don't know what to do? He wants to turn around look at who she is and then just hug her as hard as he can, but he can't. "I'm sorry everyone, But i can't transform right now so we have to get out of here and i... I need your help to get out. Which means i can't hide who i am anymore." She said behind his back, what did she say?
does that means she will let us see, but He won't turn around he don't know why but it feels like he's betraying her if he did. "Why can't you transform again?" Alya beside Adrien asked, he could see that she also wanted to turn around and just find out who Ladybug is. "The thing i get my power from is to exhausted to do anything and it needs a thing i forgot at home like always" Ladybug said in a nervous tone, which was really cute which made it harder to not look right now but he still can't turn around.
"You remind me of my best friend Marinette, she forgets everything and is clumsy i guess you two are somewhat alike" Alya said and laughed a little. He could hear her walking around them, Which means soon they can see who it is. "Well i guess we are somewhat alike" She said, and he finds the voice familiar. Well it was similar to Ladybug but also someone else that he knows, And now he looks up and saw that she was standing in front of them. In plain view with no mask or costume on. "Ma- Ma- MARINETTE!?" Adrien and the other two said out loud, The expression on her faced changed for a sec to panic and she put her finger to her mouth "SHHHH" she did trying to keep them from screaming.
Adrien looked away for a sec as he had felt his cheeks blushing, what should he do he hadn't really thought it could have been her. Well he had but he didn't find much to support it, Well she hadn't been Akumatized yet like everyone else had and sometimes she is absent from school When ladybug does things. I have never seen them together either, it's always one of them or the other. They are kinda similar but he hadn't seen much because of her behavior around him. . . . "How could i have missed that?" he whispered to himself and looked up again and looked at Marinette, she has the same black hair and blue eyes.
And then she looked at him, he tensed up a little as to what she would do but she made a confused expression and went back to calming down the others. She then began to speak "Surprised? But we don't have time for this, we really need to get out but i can't be seen because he knows it was you three and ladybug. Which means he could figure out who i am and tell Papillion. We need to get to the lobby and then away fast, hopefully Chat noir will come soon to help but before that we will do what we can while i try to get the power back to transform, I can't do it without you guys" She said and started to look around in here, It's so obvious once you know because even without the mask she is still quick thinking and amazing in one way.

"If we can reach the window we can escape" Marinette said and looked at the window, but how can they reach something that is almost twice as high as them. "If we had something tall to stand on we might have been able to" Marinette continued while Alya was starring at her and walking around her in circles studying Marinette, While Nino was just standing there still shocked. But Adrien wasn't reacting like she thought he would have, he looked shocked but for some reason all she could feel was a curious stare, almost like Alya but not in the frustrating way she had in her stare. It felt almost soft, which made her only embarrassed and soon a faint blush was starting to paint her cheeks.
If she didn't get out of here soon she would die from his stare, or so that's what she felt like. "We could stand on each others shoulders but we still can't reach it." The room around them was almost empty except that one big machine. Nino started to walk around after he had started to accept what had happened, and then he waved to Marinette "Ladybu- i mean Marinette look! it's a small ladder, hidden behind this big machine. "Good job Nino!" She said and walked over there hastily and examined the ladder, it was small but tall enough for someone to almost reach the window. Which means it could get dangerous to climb but we didn't have much choice, Marinette took the ladder and unfolded it on the wall under the window.
"Tikki, how are you feeling? i'll soon get you something to eat okay?" Marinette whispered to her Kwami, and Tikki nodded to Marinette, "Okay this will be risky but it's the only way out except running into the Akumatized person" Marinette said, "You mean someone has to stand on someone else on this ladder?" Alya said in a slightly worried and nervous tone while pointing at the ladder. "Yes, it might seem scary but when one person has gotten out it can help the other up but we have to hurry before it comes back here and somehow breaks in" Marinette said, the slamming had been quiet for a while now and it worried her. "Someone has to hold the ladder while the two climbs up and then the fourth one helps the two to make sure they don't lose balance easily" She said, Adrien walks forward.
"I can stand on the bottom" He said while walking to the ladder, Marinette knew that she can't fool around and one mistake could hurt someone. "I'll be on the top then, Alya can you help me and Adrien up while Nino holds the ladder?" They nodded, So Adrien goes onto the ladder first and then Marinette, there wasn't much space so they were really close to each others. The question now was tho how Marinette get's on top of him, "um..." She couldn't say more. It was already super embarrassing for her as it was. "If i-i get on yo-your shoulder first... then stand u-up it mi-might be easier" Marinette tried to say and hopefully he wouldn't think to much about that, and he didn't and just nodded.
He stood down on his knee and soon Marinette was on his shoulders, sitting but with the help of Alya steadying him Marinette soon stood on top of his shoulders. She reached the window and opened it, fortunately the window was big enough for her to get out with plenty of room. "Yes! i'm out, now give me your hand and i'll drag you guys up" Marinette said and reached her hand out to Adrien, She smiled a little and he returned it and took her hand. She pulled him up and soon everyone was outside, But as soon as Marinette saw them all safe outside she heard a scream from the inside and something break. "You guys go and hide safe somewhere... I need to take care of this now before it get's worse" Marinette said and turned around, "Wait Marinette!" Alya said
_ Marinette turned around and smiled to Alya, "Can we take this after the Akumatized person get purified?" She said and saw Alya nod and waved to Marinette. She felt happy that Alya could understand and not push the topic right now, the other two didn't say anything so Marinette proceeded to run home to refill Tikkis strength. Once she got home and entered her room she took Tikki out of her bag and and gave her a cookie, Seeing Tikki happily eat made Marinette smile but she could feel her uselessness, If she had just acted quicker and not dragged those three into that building this might not have happened.
"Marinette it's not your fault, i told you sometimes you have to do things no matter how hard it is or how nervous you get and it's did good Marinette, i did say not to tell anyone but if it can't be helped it's okay" Tikki said and smiled with her mouth covered i crumbs from the cookie. Marinette laughed a little and picked Tikki up and gave her a hug, "Thank you Tikki, you always seem to know how to cheer me up when it's about these stuff." Marinette said and placed her hands on her knees with Tikki sitting on them.
"Well i'm not the only one that knows how to do that, You have Alya your best friend, and Adrien that can just smile to make you fly to cloud 9, well Nino can too with certain things so rely on them from now on too okay?" She said and flew up having regained her strength, Marinette smiled and stood up she was feeling reassured by what Tikki said and decided to trust them completely tho she is not looking forward to having her best friend ask her thousands of questions once this is over. "Tikki, Transform me!" She said and looked out the window, knowing she has one thing left to do before she can relax completely So she got on the roof and then started to fly away towards the place elektromic was in full speed._
