Chapter Text
Marinette was nervously looking at the clock for the 7th ou 8th time over the last 10 minutes.
It's been an hour since she let Mellifae run alone after the Akuma, and she started to worried.
Master Fu had asked for Tikki's help with a ritual in the Book. He needed her knowledge, her memories to work on this one and it's been two days since he took the Kwami away.
At first, she didn't think it would be a problem:
-
She can go pick up Tikki at Master Fu's massage parlor anytime an Akuma shows up
-
Chat Noir had been informed of the situation.
-
He had chosen a Miraculous holder for support.
He took the Bee Miraculous for a new wielder. Chloe had given up on her Miraculous, and she was not really trustfull with superhero duty anymore.
Everything should have been under control.
But Marinette had the worst luck, and she was now stuck in her room, powerless, holding a baby.
The Akuma appeared near the school. It was a young woman, grieving after a miscarriage. She had let her sadness turn to anger after she saw a group of nannies hanging out in the park with babies all around.
Chat Noir was the first there, quickly followed by the new Bee Wielder.
Her suit looked a lot like Queen Bee's but with a helmet and roller skates.
La Mama had started to fire lightbeams everywhere, transforming people into babies she was putting in a big baby carriage.
The moment Marinette went out to find Tikki, Chat Noir get hit by one of La Mama's beams.
Mellifae managed to grab Baby Chat Noir, quickly introduced herself to Marinette before shoving the kid in her arms, commanding her to get back home and take care of the hero.
La Mama was already going away with her new babies, crying in their giant baby carriage.
Mellifae started skating after her, leaving Marinette alone with Baby Chat Noir.
Marinette sighed...
«Yayayayayayayayaya»
She looked at the baby in her arms and smiled. He was so adorable.
His cute kitten eyes were looking curiously at her.
She clicked his tiny bell and scratched gently his chin.
He started to purr...
When she first came back in her room, she had to bandage his hands, to make sure he won't hurt himself with his claws. He wasn't really happy at the beginning...
«Oooow my poor little Kitty, you must be tired of Auntie Mari, aren't you?»
She gently shifted Kitten Noir and pressed him on her chest, his little head on her shoulder. She started to hum.
Kitten Noir sigh with ease and started chewing and sucking his babysitter's t-shirt.
2 minutes later, he was sleeping, Marinette's t-shirt in his mouth.
Tikki was working with Master Fu when Wayzz told them what was happening with La Mama in the park.
Tikki was ready to leave and go find her Chosen when the Ladyblog shows the new Bee Wielder put a Baby Chat Noir in Marinette's arms.
«I think you should just go help the new hero, Tikki...»
She nodded and started to track La Mama across Paris.
Tikki found Mellifae near the Eiffel Tower. The new hero was doing well, dodging La Mama's beams, and she could be as annoying as Chat Noir without using a pun!
Mellifae used Venom to freeze La Mama and found the Akumatised item. A pregnancy bola necklace, a symbol of all the despair in the victim's heart.
HawkMoth really was an asshole...
Suddenly a big mutant beetle bug came in front of her.
«Hi, I'm Tikki, Ladybug's Kwami. She can't come right now, but I think we can handle it by ourselves.»
«Hi Tik', I'm Mellifae. Let's finish this then.»
The new hero broke the bola and the Akuma tried to escape.
Tikki caught it in a light bubble in her little paws.
«Time to de-evilize!»
The light blow up a little more in her paws and then, she throw it in the air shouting:
«Miraculous Ladybug»
The released white butterfly went away while the cure run through Paris, armies of ladybugs turning babies back to their right age.
Tikki turns towards Mellifae.
«Introduce yourself to the media, then get back home, give Pollen some honey and have some rest. Chat Noir will come and see you later. Be carefull, you only have 4 minutes left. I have to go...»
«Thanks Tik', see you!»
Mellifae waved at the Kwami and headed towards Alya.
Marinette was lying on her chaise lounge, Kitten Noir on her chest. He was sucking her t-shirt in his sleep and it was soooo cute!!
She was wondering if it was appropriate to took a picture of a vulnerable Chat Noir without his permission when the ladybug cure passes on and Chat Noir turned back to himself.
Marninette froze.
Chat Noir sat up, one arm on each side of Marinette, spitting out the t-shirt in his mouth. Realisation hit him.
«M-M-M-M-Marinette, ooooh god, I'm soooo sorry!!»
He jumped on the bed, reaching the skylight.
«I need to go. I must check on Mellifae, but I'll be back Princess, I'm sorry, sorry, sorry...»
And he was gone.
Marinette sat up on her chaise lounge.
«I should have take a picture...»
