Author's Notes:
-Really? No reviews? I'm shocked. I better get this pain-train rolling...
-While the story does have four main third-person points of view, it will briefly shift from someone from time to time. Hopefully it doesn't get too confusing...
Cat Noir jumped from rooftop to rooftop. He felt really tired. He sat down on a rooftop and tried to remember what happened. It all started five months ago, when he and Ladybug were choosing the new Miraculous wielders. The duo stood in their civilian forms in the foyer while Gabriel was at work.
"I think we should give the Miraculouses to new people." Marinette said. "Not only would it tell the people that certain Miraculouses aren't evil, but they can help us to fight Hawkmoth and his army of akumatized villains."
Adrien said. "Alright. But who are we going to give the Miraculouses to? And who will receive which Miraculous?"
"Hmm..." She put her fingers to her chin. "This is not an easy decision. We have the Turtle, Fox and Bee to work with since the Peacock's off-limits."
"First let's talk turtle." Marinette scoffed at his pun. "I say that it should be Nino. And I'm not just saying that because he's my best friend. He's kind, brave and honest. He worked with Nathaniel to find out the truth about Chloe and Lila. He told me the truth about Chloe being Queen Bee, even when it was hard for me to believe the truth. He was also willing to risk his life so that I wouldn't be condemned to living miserably under Chloe's rule. If he doesn't deserve the Turtle Miraculous, I don't know who does."
She nodded. "You make a good point. I have an idea for the Fox Miraculous."
"I'm listening."
"Nathaniel. He's brave, he's honest and he's creative. Because of his creative nature, he could come up with clever illusions to fool the enemy."
"Not to mention he successfully resisted an akuma and bravely fought against Volpina, saving Mayor Bourgeois from her wrath and her evil plan to take over Paris." He smiled. "Now for the Bee Miraculous."
"I have an idea. She'll do very well as the Bee Miraculous holder."
"Who is it?"
"Sabrina."
Adrien looked at Marinette as if she had grown two heads. "Sabrina? Why her?"
"Because she's a sweet girl. After all that she's been through, I think having a Miraculous will help her. Somehow."
"If you say so."
Adrien opened the safe and got out the three Miraculouses. They put the Miraculouses into the boxes and transformed at the same time.
"Plagg, claws out!"
"Tikki, spots on!"
They transformed and went their separate ways. Cat Noir took the Turtle Miraculous to Nino while Ladybug took the other two Miraculouses to their respective future wielders. Cat Noir followed a familiar path, as he had been to Nino's apartment once before. Once he got there, he looked through the window, only to find Nino sleeping on his bed. He opened the window and snuck into Nino's room. The young boy was snoring. He was surprised that he wasn't awake, as it was almost 12:30. He decided not to wake up the sleeping boy. He put the Turtle Miuraculous box onto his nightstand. He saw Nino beginning to stir so he ran out the window, closed it and quickly got away.
"I hope he enjoys being the new turtle miraculous wielder." Cat Noir said to himself.
He quickly returned to the foyer and waited for Ladybug to arrive. Afterwards, she detransformed back into Marinette.
"I hope we made the right decisions." Adrien said.
Marinette smiled. "I'm sure they've got what it takes."
A few days later, Cat Noir was beginning to lose faith in the heroes. He and Ladybug were fighting Darkbade for the second time, but they were being overwhelmed by the amount of knights they had to deal with. The other heroes had yet to show up.
Cat Noir struck down another knight with his staff. "Where in the world are they?"
"Have you tried calling them?" Ladybug asked.
That thought hadn't once occurred to the young cat. He was about to call one of them when suddenly the knights grabbed his arms. Darkblade spun Ladybug's yoyo around her, tied her up, spun her around making her dizzy, and one his knights tied her up. She attempted to escape, with no luck.
"Thy efforts of escape are futile, Venomous Insect!"
"Nice move, Darkblade! Now get her earrings!" Hawkmoth ordered.
He reached for the earrings of Ladybug, but at that moment, Jade Ninja arrived and threw his shield towards Darkblade, partially cutting through his armor.
"Leave her alone, you crazed landlord!" Jade Ninja ordered.
Pretty soon, before he knew it, Darkblade had been defeated. Four weeks later, while doing patrol, the quintet was on the rooftop, doing night patrol. It was obvious that Abeille was tired.
She yawned. "Remind me, why are we here again?"
"We're doing patrol remember?" Renard asked.
"I mean why do we do patrol?"
"It's done for numerous purposes. One, to make sure Hawkmoth isn't rearing his ugly head again. And second, to make sure no one else threatens this city." Ladybug answered.
"Sometimes, although rarely, we fight normal bad guys instead of akumatized baddies. But that hasn't happened since long before the Day of Rising Moon." Cat Noir added.
"Day of the Rising Moon?" Jade asked.
"That's what many people refer to as the final battle between the Lucky Duo of Ladybug and Cat Noir vs the Malevolent Duet Queen Bee and Volpina." Renard answered. "Not only could the moon be seen before the sunset on that day, but Marinette rose up to fight the supervillains after the downfall of Ladybug. Had it not been for her efforts, the Malevolent Duet would have won. Like the moon, she shone with light when all seemed lost in darkness."
Jade nodded. "That makes sense."
"I really do owe her. She was on the brink of being akumatized, and I thought she'd fall victim to Hawkmoth." Ladybug said sadly, looking away from her team. She then smiled and looked towards her teammates. "But she turned it around. She refused and obliterated the akuma, beat the stuffing out of both of them in less than five minutes and ultimately saved the city. Maybe even the world."
Cat Noir knew why she looked away. The girl who had nearly been akumatized was her. The others didn't know, but they were happy to see Ladybug smiling.
Jade got out his shield and made it hover in air. "Hawkmoth's attacks aren't as frequent as they used to be. It's been two weeks."
"This is the longest record of time in between attacks." Abeille added. "Shouldn't we be trying to relax?"
"Oh Abeille," Renard began. "You need to be prepared for anything and everything."
"Are you saying I'm not?!"
Jade looked sternly at the two arguing heroes. "Calm down you two. It looks like there's nothing there. Let's go."
The superheroes turned their backs and started walking away. They were about to disperse when Abeille suddenly pointed something out.
"Unidentified person at ten o'clock!"
The four turned her way and saw a magician pointing a wand and making buildings disappear.
Ladybug gasped. "The Magician of Misfortune?!"
"But we beat him!" Cat Noir claimed.
Jade looked at the magician. "Apparently, he's back."
"Well, look's like there's only one thing to do." Abeille said.
Renard turned to his teammates. "We have to fight him."
They all nodded in agreement. The five heroes jumped down from the roof to confront the magician.
