I update chapter 8 so please, if you haven't, read it again. ^^
Now have fun with the next chapter.
Chapter 9: Check your WiFi
Saying Paris citizens were going crazy, was an understatement.
They were absolutely going bonkers over the revelation that famous teen model Adrien Agreste had been Chat Noir and was replaced by yourself aka. Calamity.
Wherever you go, you hear a news station or a radio station talking about it.
All the newsletters were filled with only it.
People discussed with each other.
Some were all right with Calamity, some wanted Adrien back. You have heard enough people telling these idiots that his identity was compromised so he couldn't return been Chat Noir.
Was it that difficult to understand?
Anyway, you had other problems.
Surprising since you were Calamity.
But…you couldn't reach Adrien and this made you freak out.
He didn't respond on his phone. You called the mansion, no one picked up. You wrote him an email, he didn't answer.
Fuck, Adrien was a sexual abuser, but he didn't deserve to be locked into his home without contact with the outside world. This probably made him this way, it wouldn't help if he returned to it.
Yet it seemed that Gabriel Agreste didn't take it well that his son had been moonlighting as a superhero.
Overprotective as he was, he surely had nearly a heart attack.
It was sad that it hadn't killed him.
It was the worst timing since you were nearly ready to take that asshole to court and get Adrien a loving family who would help him be a good person.
You screwed yourself over by taking the ring so early it seems.
That's when you heard how worried Sabrina was calling your name.
You were sitting with her in school, staring at your smartphone, demanding with your look that Adrien should finally call you back, while all your classmates talked all about Adrien is/was Chat Noir!
The only one besides you who didn't participate in the talking was Marinette obviously.
She had been staring at her tablet and drawing on it without any meaning as much you could tell.
You turned to Sabrina asking what she wanted.
"He still didn't answer you?", she asked also worried for Adrien.
"No…I'm scared his father locked him up in a tower like Rapunzel and throw the key away.", you admitted.
"Would you ever have guessed that Adrien was Chat Noir?", she wanted to know. "I mean, as Chat Noir he acted all different than the Adrien we know."
It seemed that someone, Kim, had listened in because he, Kim, formally yelled out to you: "Yeah, Chloe you know Adrien longer than us. Did you suspect him been Chat Noir?"
The first time everybody in your class looked not with malice but with curiosity over you.
Wow, you had missed people looking at you like you were a normal human being.
You so wanted to keep these looks, but also you needed to tell them the truth about Adrien. Marinette needed to hear it most, so she could really close this chapter in her life.
"I want to make one thing clear.", you began and tried to fix anyone with a sharp look. "Right now while you all discuss Adrien being Chat Noir, his father probably closed him in his house and took away all means to contact him. This is alarming and we need to get him out of this situation."
For that, you earned ashamed looks. All looking guilty.
Again, wow.
They agreed with you.
Today was crazy.
"Anyway, no I didn't know Adrien was Chat Noir."
Lies.
"But…in the end, it doesn't surprise me. Deep down, Adrien is a selfish person and can't seem to accept borders and no from people. I'm not surprised he is Chat Noir who practically harrassed Ladybug for her love since day one. No absolute not."
Ah, there were now the evil looks and shocked gasps.
Only Marinette stared at you with surprise in her eyes.
Alya stood up.
Of course, she has to protect her toxic ship.
"What the heck? You say this about your supposed best friend? You are an evil bully who is acting only nice. We all know, you will be back to your true self soon enough."
You also stood up, even if Sabrina hold into your arm and begged you to let Alya be.
You would not accept this kind of slander.
"I'm a huge heartless bitch who loved to make people suffer because my mother doesn't love me.", you told calmly and loudly, which not only made all look surprised but shut Alya up, before she could insult you more. "I don't deserve forgiveness or a second chance. I'm changing myself for me and only ME because I want to be better. Hate me all you want, but fucking watch your videos on the Ladyblog again and take your shitty shipping glasses off and use common sense. Then you will see what a sexually harassing asshole Adrien is!"
Before it could escalate further Monsieur Bernard enters the classroom and demands from you all attention.
He told you, that Adrien had been taken out of school by his father since Mr. Agreste is worried his son will get harassed since now all knew he was Chat Noir.
Fuck all, you fucking knew it!
After that, Monsieur Bernard started the first lesson of the day.
Okay, after school you would go to Mayor Bourgeois and get Adrien the hell out of his home!
Alya didn't understand the world anymore.
Adrien had been Chat Noir.
Chat Noir had been Adrien.
Marinette had loved Adrien, who was Chat Noir, who was in love with Ladybug.
Her fav ships Adrienette and LadyNoir were the obstacle for the other and it made her mad.
But as best friend…she needed to make Adrienette canon, even if her heart bleeds thinking about how she has to practically sink the beauty that is LadyNoir.
She was ready this morning to help Marinette get her confidence back since having Ladybug as a competition for Adrien's love was already rough, without him being absolute in love with Ladybug, only to have her best friend say that she burned all pictures of Adrien and all the gifts she made him since she had been a crazy stalker and didn't want to be like Adrien.
The brunette girl had been shocked.
Never realizing how red and puffy Marinette's eyes were.
Never seeing the remorse, shame, and disgust in them.
She only heard, what she wanted.
At it was that Adrienette sunk from alone. All her talking to Marinette to not give up and that she was exaggerating didn't interest her best friend.
She was just done with Adrien.
What?
They were soulmates!
Okay, she had said the same about LadyNoir, but her best friend's happiness was more important.
So what could Alya do?
Adrien was a prisoner in his own home it seemed. She couldn't go to him.
But maybe she could talk to Ladybug!
This Calamity may have helped her against the Akuma Chat Blanc, it was even the fasted Akuma battle ever, but she was sure Ladybug would want Adrien back.
They were partners!
She needed also to find out who Ladybug was and talk with her. Together they would get Adrien out of his home and in Marinette's arms.
Yes, this was perfect.
While Monsieur Bernard talked about a book they have to read, she cut out from a Ladybug picture the face.
She narrowed down that Ladybug must be a teenager like them, so why not look in her class for the superhero?
Analysing she put the cut-out photo over the faces of her female classmates.
No one seemed right on the body of Ladybug.
Somehow she landed on Chloe and the blond-haired bitch glared at her.
Hah, changing for the better her ass.
Chloe was still evil.
And then all her talk about that Adrien was also a bad apple.
What kind of fucked up scheme was that to have Adrien for herself?
That's when Monsieur Bernard called for her attention.
She answered him and he told her what was her analysis of the segment of the book they have read.
Oops…Alya hadn't paid attention.
Monsieur Bernard didn't like it when you didn't pay attention.
Meek, she admitted to not have listen in.
For that, she had to write a whole analysis of the first three chapters by tomorrow.
How she missed Madame Bustier.
She was way nicer than Monsieur Bernard.
The clock sounded, the hour was over.
Marinette ignored her and just walked out of the classroom.
Frustrated she walked only to the lockers.
Alya really didn't get anyone.
What was wrong with the world?
She stared at her smartphone, wishing with all she could to find out the truth.
Never seeing the little black butterfly flying into her phone.
You were just getting your books for your next lesson, when suddenly people started to scream.
What the-?!
"I'm Lady Wifi!"
Oh fuck, over what did Alya get akumatiez?
It was not like in the show where she had seen the fake Ladybug Yoyo in the original Chloe's locker and assumed she was Ladybug and then the original Chloe was her bitch-self over it like always.
"And I will find out the truth! No heroes can hide from me."
Okay, she wanted to find out the truth.
Or the truth she wanted to believe in.
Whatever, you needed to transform.
You played the scarred girl and run out of school with other teenagers, then you made a beeline for an empty alley.
Plagg was sleeping in your backback, probably dreaming about Camembert.
You hated that you had to wake him up, he looked so cute right now.
"Plagg, wake up.", you called, while you petted his head. "We have an Akuma."
He yawned cutely so that you saw his tiny fangs. You wished you could take a photo of him.
Adorable.
"Who is it?", he asked sleepily.
"Alya as Lady Wifi. I know her weak point and where she is probably going. We only need to meet up with L.B."
"Then transform so I can go back to my beauty sleep."
And you did just that.
As Calamity, you jumped from rooftop to rooftop directed at the Agreste Mansion.
Adrien was the only hero, ex-superhero, Lady Wifi knows right now the identity. She would surely try to get her information from him.
You heard how someone landed behind you and then run alongside you.
"Hey L.B.! The Akuma is the Ladyblogger.", you told her.
She signed.
"You thinking the same as me that she is going to Agreste?"
"Yup."
"Damn, I hope to not see him so soon enough, after yesterday."
"We will manage, don't worry."
Finally, you reached the Agreste Mansion and jumped into it from Adrien's open window.
What you saw…you and Ladybug and to blink twice.
Lady Wifi was looking disturbed at Adrien, while he looked like the crazy Chat Blank from the original timeline.
"My lady!", he cried. "You have seen reason and are here to get me back."
You fucking know that locking him up wasn't good for Adrien's mental health!
Sneaky you activated the record function on your Baton.
Child Service will love to see this.
"Agreste, stay calm and step away from Lady Wifi.", advised Ladybug him calmy.
"Please you can take the Akuma!", shoutes supringly Lady Wifi. "What he told me about your supposed relantenship….I'm sorry Ladybug that I was so blind to the harassment you faced!"
….This did not happen!
Lady Wifi saw alone reason?
So no Akuma battle?
Looks like it.
Even with Papillion screamin' into her ear, the butterfly light mask over her face said all, Lady Wifi stepped closer to you two and gave Ladybug her smartphone.
"Please! I don't know how long I can fight him!"
Of course, Ladybug did her thing and Alya was back to herself. Only Adrien looked still crazy.
"Oh Adrien, what did your father do to you?", Alya asked him.
You know Akuma victims normally didn't remember what happened to them, yet you had a feeling Alya remember something.
The blond boy talked like a raging river. He was so glad to let it all out.
Your wish to strangle Gabriel Agreste got only bigger.
Asshole.
Fucking bastard.
He really closed in Adrien his room. Like Gothel with Rapunzel. Took away his phone and computer so he couldn't communicate with anyone.
Him being an ex-hero was for his father like all his worst fears coming true. How the world was a dangerous place and would kill Adrien.
What was Gabriel Agreste's problem?
No seriously?
No wonder Adrien was so fucked up.
You three looked unsure at each other. You couldn't let him stay here.
"Agreste.", you said to him and ignored how he looked with such hatred at you. "Try to hold on tight. We will get you out. I know for sure if we tell your friend Chloe what is going on, you will be out of here soon."
"Why should I trust you! You took all away from me! Because of you I'm in this sitation.", he hissed.
Ladybug came to your defense.
"No, your father is at fault here. He just needed whatever reason to lock you back in. Calamity has not done anything with it."
"My lady!"
"I'm not your lady! But I won't abandon you. We will get you out of here."
With that Ladybug took Alya's bridal style and jumped out the window, you following after her.
You were back home, watching with Plagg TV.
Nadja Chamack reported about how Paris's number one prosecutor charged the famous designer Gabriel Agreste for child abuse.
Adrien had been taken in by social services and would soon be placed in a foster family.
It was unclear if he would return to your school, but he would be out of Paris till he had to speak in the court case against his own father.
All thanks to Ladybug and Calamity, who had gone to the mayor with an incriminating video and then Chloe Bourgeoise showed her own proofs for Adrien's abuse.
You did it.
You manage to make a big change in the storyline.
And with that canon said its last goodbye you were sure.
