During the middle of class, Chloe was still fuming. Shortly after, Chloe started muttering things. The red sign on her face shown that she was under Hawk Moth's command. Just as Chloe started to transform, people started whispering. Alya suddenly pointed at Chloe.
"Look! Don't worry, everybody! Ladybug and Chat Noir are going to save us!"Alya quickly grabbed out her phone.
"Raghhh! Ladybug this, Chat Noir that. Today I will crush them all and finally make Adrien realize he likes me! I am not Chloe anymore, I am the Phoenix!" Phoenix was wearing a bright dress that has been licked by flames at the ends. The two sides of her face had three bright red slashes on them. Her hair was also a bright red, styled in a long braid that reached to her knees. She had streaks of blond in them, almost reminding her of Chloe. Everyone was running out the door, including Alya, who had just ended her video early to make a quick dash for it. Marinette ran into another room when no one was looking.
"Transform me, Tikki!"Marinette said. She quickly transformed into Ladybug, live and ready for action. And just in time, too.
"Where are you, Ladybug? Come on out, wherever you are,"Phoenix coaxed.
"Oh well. I hope you know the saying don't play with fire well, because I'm coming in!" Phoenix suddenly slammed herself against the door, and the door fell down. Suddenly, Chat Noir leaped in from the window and landed next to Ladybug. He bowed and kissed her knuckles.
"Good morning, my lady. May I ask you what you were doing this early in a school? Perhaps pawing through something confidential?" There was a glint in Chat Noir's eyes.
"Come on, Chat. You know I would never do that. Besides, you are being rude to our new guest here, Phoenix." Ladybug played along.
"Oh?"said Chat Noir. He hardly spared her a glance, causing Phoenix to shake with rage. If there was one thing that Chloe and Phoenix had in common, it would be the need for attention.
"You know you're the only one for me, my lady. No one steals my poor heart like you, you naughty, naughty cat." By now, Chat Noir had his arm around Ladybug's waist and was grinning a mischievous smile. Ladybug pushed him away before he could lean in.
"Watch where you're touching, Chat. We don't want to anger our fiery friend too much. Looks like she might burn,"replied Ladybug.
"Yes, yes, I suppose you're right, my lady. Now, should we get our paws moving? Before she burns us?"Chat Noir winced as Phoenix aimed a fireball right at him. He barely had time to dodge it-this lady is fast.
"Watch where you're burning, Phoenix. Don't want to get my jumpsuit too ashy."Chat Noir continued with the puns. He looked back at Ladybug.
"Chat Noir, watch out!"yelled Ladybug. He had been so busy with his jokes he forgot to stay on guard. And now there was a fireball heading straight towards him powered by anger that he had fueled.
