Chapter Text
"Hey girl" Alya said, climbing up the ladder to Marinette's room. As soon as the trap door shut, the blue hair girl shoved the fox miraculous in her face. "Marinette I-"
"Take it for now, chat said he cant come to the next couple of battles. Honestly there is something he's not telling me but I don't have time to figure out what. He also asked me to tell you to make illusions of him at the next few battles, so only help from a distance and stay out of sight. Ill get Viperion and carapace to help me."
Alya stared at the girl who was now panting from explain that really fast. "Alright-"
"Great! Now lets do our homework!"
To say Alya was worried is a understatement. The girl was already stressed out but now with chat noir gone for a bit, she is going to have to work extra hard. The redhead's curiosity was also wondering what chat could possibility be doing. She guessed he was maybe going on a trip or had personal matters to tend to. Maybe he just needed some time off, even superhero's need a break once in a while.
Alya glanced down at the English project their teacher assigned them. It was quite a boring one, and it was taking forever. Looking up again she looked at Marinette. She had her hand against her forehead and her eyes were unfocused.
"Marinette?" Alya gently called out. Her blue eyes snapped up to alya's brown ones. "I can finishes this, do you maybe want to go for a run and hand out the miraculous?"
She nodded gratefully, "Thanks Alya, I don't know what I'd do without you!"
Marinette ran to the miracle box and grabbed the snake and turtle miraculous, causing the two kwami's disappear.
"TIKI SPOTS ON!"
Marinette jumped out the window into the night. "Hi Alya!" Trixx said with a smile.

Luka was strumming his guitar quietly when he heard a tap on his window. "Ladybug?" he question with surprise. "Is there a Akumaa?"
The spotted superhero shook her head, handed the snake miraculous to Luka. "No, chat noir wont be able to come to the next few fights so, Luka Couffaine I grant you the miraculous of the snake. This miraculous gives you the power of second chance. Can I trust you to use it for the greater good and return it when I say?"
Luka nodded, picking up the bracelet and greeted his kwami. "You can count on me ladybug!"
Ladybug smiled, "Thanks Luka, also a heads up Rena will be making a illusion of chat to make it look like he is there, and carapace will be their also." she said before jumping out the window to deliver the other miraculous.
Once she was far enough that she could not hear him Luka whispered.
"Good night Marinette."
The snake kwami glared at his holder with shock lmao.

Adrien silently followed Nathalie to his fathers office. upon opening the door no one was in their. Then she walked up to a painting motion him to follow.
The blond tensed when the floor opened him putting them on some kind of elevator. Once it stopped Adrien saw butterflies. Hundreds of white butterflies, he felt sick but tried to hide it. How could he not of known?
One of the insects gently landed on his hand showing its ghostly wings before fluttering away. Even though he flinched a little on contact, the butterfly was beautifully. In that moment he deiced he much preferred the white version over the purple.
There was a long bridge and his father stood at the end facing a glass dome. Once he got closer he couldn't breath.
He started to shake. His father put a hand on his shoulder and causing a small whimper leave his throat suddenly the blond felt his fathers arms around him. Something he hasn't felt since style queen.
5 months ago
Shaking slightly the blond raised his trembling arms to hug back.
Gabriel guiding his son to stand in front of Emile's unconscious body. "W-why w-was s-she u-using the...the b-broken miraculous" Adrien suddenly gasped out, struggling to form a full sentence.
"I don't know.." Gabriel admitted. "Did... d-did she know this..." Adrien gestured to his mom, "would happen..?"
The oldest Agreste hesitated before responding, "yes, yes she did know this would happen."
Suddenly Adrien felt bitter. His mom willingly left him. His mom willingly left him. His breathing picked up as he looked over his whole life with his mom. Did she really love him at all?
"Adrien calm down." Gabriel demanded, sensing his sons emotions. The blond took a deep breath before walking up to the glass coffin. He put his hand on it and looked his mothers closed eyes. He silently cursed and mourned her at the same time.
He couldn't let his father get hold of the miraculous as much as he wanted to. He was chosen to be the holder of the black cat.
He was going to get the peacock and butterfly miraculous back to the miracle box.
