Miraculous: The Rise of Ladybug and Cat Noir

Chapter 4

Marinette walked out through the entrance to the bakery which featured white walls with white rectangles slightly outset from the walls, outlined in gold. The windows were tinted dark black with capital letters in gold. Six of the windows which appeared in pairs had a golden design, each depicting a peel, grains of wheat, and a croissant as the logo, the logo that she herself had designed when she was four, her first ever design, before that fateful day. In the center of two of these pairs was an arch window, outlined in white. Above each arch was a small rectangular clear window. The door was styled similarly to the outside walls, with the same black window, gold lettering which Marinette noticed that the "a's" in "Dupain" had been peeled away again thus it now read "Dupin," and white outline. Above the windows and door was a white overlap with ridges, gold lettering, and a black background.

She still couldn't believe her ideas as a child, such as dreaming of tailoring a hat for the Eiffel Tower to protect it from snow. And from then on, all she wanted to do was be a fashion designer! She could then hear her twin's muffled singing of Lou Jean's "If I Believed In Me" Marinette decided to quietly sing along. Might as well complete something musical since she couldn't play her recorder to save her life.

Since her home was located on 12 Rue Gotlib in the 21st arrondissement of Paris, she could just walk to school instead of taking the bus. Out on the street. Marinette came to a pedestrian crosswalk and tried to cross the street, but a car stopped her which made her let out an "Uff..." as well as made her wait for the light to change.

Marinette was just hoping that Chloé wouldn't be in her class this year, when she saw an old man crossing the street as a bus was coming. He was about to be run over!

She let out an "Uuuhhaawh?" as she lunged forward without thinking and grabbed him by his hand and dragged him onto the other side of the street, while dropping the box of macaroons onto the sidewalk in the process.

"Thank you, miss. Oh dear, what a disaster!" the man exclaimed, as the macaroons got trampled on by pedestrians without noticing.

"Don't worry, it's alright sir, I'm no stranger to disasters! Besides, there are still a few left over," Marinette said, then handed him a macaroon.

He grabbed and ate it, and said "Mmmh. Delicious!"

"What's your name?" she asked him.

"You can call me Mr. Chan." the old man said.

"Nice to meet you, I'm Marinette," Marinette said, and smiled. "Tell me, do you believe in magic?" "I-I guess?" Suddenly the school bell rang, "Fuck! I gotta go, or I'm gonna be late! Ah, bye, have a nice day, sir!" Marinette said, and ran towards the school.

She would make a good ladybug, but then again, her luck matches that of the black cats! That Alya girl would probably be a better choice putting aside the fact that she received various Chinese treatments from me. However, there IS something about that Marinette girl that I have not seen in a VERY long time! Master Fu thought to himself as he looked at the two mini boxes containing the two Miraculi, deciding which one to give her, he then smiled as he then picked up his cane and strolled past the bakery to his next location: Françoise Dupont.

He then said softly, "Thank you very much, young lady."

As Marinette hurried to school, a huge crowd coming from the nearby subway blocked her path, causing her to land on her rear in front of civilians, embarrassing herself in front of them. She got up on her feet quickly and ran away, continuing her way to school, just missing a car arriving in front of a building. Nathalie walked toward the car to assist Gabriel as he stepped out of the car. The crowd that had previously blocked Marinette's path before suddenly started swarming the car to get a better look at Gabriel.

"Mr. Agreste!" a crowd member shouted.

"This had better be a good reason for you to drag me away from my home, Nathalie!" Gabriel growled.

"Um, well, the teams are ready for you in the showroom," Nathalie told him.

"They had better be promising, Ms. Sancoeur," Grabriel sternly told his assistant as both he and Nathalie entered the showroom. Camera shutters were heard everywhere as models posed in front of the cameras, modeling Gabriel's designs, all while Dead or Alive's "You Spin Me Round (Like a Record) played in the background through speakers.

Gabriel could hear his son's Italian photographer being his usual eccentric self "To die for! Bravo! Yes! Ahh!"

Inside the showroom were more fashion designers who were in their busy schedules organizing the photoshoots. The elevator opened as Gabriel and Nathalie stepped out.

"In other news, the show was a success in every way," Nathalie explained to Gabriel, who was only half-listening.

"I want copies of every review as soon as they come in," he told her.

"Yes, sir," she said.

"Take three centimeters off the right. Lower the hem. And get rid of that sash," Gabriel sneered at a designer.

Vincent then looked at Gabriel's critiqued dress and exclaimed, "Oh! To die for!"

Gabriel suddenly grabbed Vincent by his collar and proceeded to say in a threatening tone, "Where is my son, Vincent?" Vincent gulped before replying nervously with, "He told me that I should be here helping while he was at school, Sir."

Gabriel released Vincent and then turned to Nathalie to tell her, "Go. Find him and bring him home. I'll finish up here before walking home, understand?" Nathalie nodded.

Meanwhile, when Marinette arrived in front of the exterior of her school, Collège Françoise Dupont, she felt nervous standing before it.

What would this first day have in store for her? Was she going to make friends? She dreamt of a friend who would accept her for who she was… Before entering, she looked at the other students, her eyes shifted from side to side looking at every student around her, some of which she knew, and she had one desire: to get out! Hang in there, Marinette! she thought to herself. She then took a deep breath before heading for the entrance while still feeling anxious as she held on her backpack strap more tightly. It was then that a boy on a skateboard passed by her. It was Nino Lahiffe! Nino arrived at school with his skateboard and high-fived with Alix Kubdel who Marinette tried hiding her face from. Nino spotted Nathanaël Kurtzberg and greeted him as well, "'Sup, dude?" Nathanaël looked up from his sketchbook to wave to him, then went back to drawing while walking alongside Ivan.

Marinette could hear her previous crush Lê Chiến Kim Ature Nguyễn trying to one-up Ivan. "Working out?" Kim asked. Ivan nodded before showing his own muscle and answering with "I'm getting swole!"

Marinette, while keeping her head down so that neither Chloé, Sabrina, nor Alix wouldn't spot her, saw Max getting chased after by Alix while Marinette bumped onto a student. Then Marinette heard HER, the half American and half French girl that she had saved a full decade ago, Chloé who was wearing painfully obvious golden oversized Chloe sunglasses, Fitting for her oversized ego! Marinette thought to herself.

Chloé was over by the school's main entrance, she was performing a quick run through of her checklist with her "best friend" Sabrina Raincomprix who Marinette thought had been better off with that Cléo girl a few years back.

"Outfit?"

"Perfect."

"Books?"

"Check. Adrien?"

"I promised to show him around when he gets here. If all goes well according to plan, he'll escort me to the ball come December. Everything must go according to plan, okay, Sabrina?"

"Plan? Check."

Marinette took a deep breath and began her way toward the school, long before Nino bumped into her... all the while shouting to her, "Watch out!"

Nice timing on that warning Nino! Marinette thought to herself.

... and Marinette bumped into... Chloé Bourgeois! Oh no! A small drop of the Kopi Luwak coffee drink she was holding flew straight to her sweater. This stain put her into a black fury. - "You. Trashed. My. Agreste sweater!" Marinette no longer knew where to put herself. "I… I'm so, so…" she mumbled in a panicked tone. When Chloé grabbed her by the collar, she told her, "Marinette Dupain-Cheng! Say, why don't I walk you home? You deserve to be there rather here since you're such a disgrace to this school! You... are so— " Chloé was obviously being very clearly sarcastic, then an unknown girl, no doubt a new girl, cleared her throat brandished her phone to show that she was already recording the whole thing between them. "Oh, don't stop on my account. I'm just a fly on the wall," the new girl who was a Martiniquan Creole-French girl, told them.

That seemed to convince Chloé to leave Marinette alone for now since she then said, "....so gonna be my new best friend!" Chloé let go of Marinette and dusted off her jacket before continuing with "It's just a priceless cashmere sweater." Marinette then told Chloé, "You know Chloé, I just remembered that we gotta run!" Marinette almost tripped on the steps as she hurried into the school with Chloé calling after her, "Friends don't run from friends who HATE THEM! I just wanna have a nice screaming exchange, like two civilized teenagers!" Her savior was accompanying her inside, trying to keep up with Marinette. They ran through the central portion of the school which was an open-air courtyard where both Marinette and her savior ran past first Rose Lavillant walking with her girlfriend Jeleka Couffaine who was getting told a plan to get through the new school year by her twin brother Luka since due to a series of unfortunate events, both she and her brother got held back a year. Marinette and the new girl also ran past Mylène's father, Fred Haprèle.

Marinette could hear Chloé and Sabrina talking after both she and her savior were as far away as possible, "Come on, Sabrina," Chloé told Sabrina after she snapped her fingers while no doubt smiling forcefully. "Let's get to class. We have much to study," Marinette heard her say, no doubt trying to appease any school staff near her, and seeing as how Mr. Haprèle worked as a janitor there and could easily tell the school staff the truth that Chloé NEVER studied instead just leaving that all up to Sabrina. "I am so angry right now! I could eat… a piece of bread with butter!"

"But that's carbs and fat. You could break out!" Sabrina told her meekly.

"I know!" Chloé said exasperated which was the last thing Marinette heard her say before getting out of hearing range.

Both Marinette and the new girl ran into Missus Caline Bustier's classroom which was silent due to nobody being there yet. She walked down the aisle of desks until she came across her usual spot, then with the new girl just across from her, she sat down just as the rest of her classmates filed in taking their usual spots, especially both Chloé and Sabrina. Just when it looked like Chloé was going to bully her some more, the classroom's teacher Mrs. Bustier walked in, forcing her and Sabrina to take their usual spots, making Marinette silently breathe a sigh of relief.

"You didn't have to do that," Marinette told the new girl. "Oh, sorry!" she replied. "Should I take a ticket to queue among friends who wanna help you?" Friends ? What friends? Marinette thought to herself. She must've been frowning, because the new girl hastened to add: "I'm joking!" "Thanks, I…" “You have quite a reputation around here: a magnet for catastrophe. You don't disappoint. You have lived up to my expectations. Some people have to try to fail that hard," she explained to Marinette. Oh I see. She heard about my legendary clumsiness. Rumors spread awfully fast in school! Marinette thought to herself.

"Yeah, I try… not to. You'll probably want to stay away from me, then," Marinette told the new girl. "No way!" she replied. "Are you kidding? I live for the action shots! So I'm gonna stick to you like superglue," the new girl chuckled just as the school bell rang. "You and I are made for each other," she continued. Marinette was left speechless. She knew that she was a living disaster and yet she still wanted to befriend her? Whatever the reason, Marinette was so glad to not be alone!

"Nino, why don't you have a seat in the front row this year?" Mrs. Bustier told him. "Oh, I completely forgot to bring something, I'll be right back class, and please behave yourselves!" she said to her class as she stepped out of the classroom.

Nino got up as Marinette groaned from exhaustion.

"Marinette!" Chloé said, and slapped her hand on the desk.

"Ugh. Here we go again. What do you want Chloé?" Marinette murmured tiredly, not wanting to put up with her today.

"That's MY seat, come on, move!" Chloé fumed, expecting her to give it up, as per usual.

"But Chloé, this has always been my seat for years, I personally don't see why I have to give it up now," Marinette retorted.

"Not anymore! New school, new year, new seats!" Sabrina told her.

"Hello to you too, Sabrina. So, where’s Alix?" Marinette said dryly.

"Dropped out. Couldn’t stand their attitudes anymore," Alix explained, she was a French-Arabic teenage girl.

"Hey, Alix! Your chemical formula that turned my naturally chestnut brown hair red, has now earned me the nickname of 'Tomato-head,' thank you SO much!" Nathanaël added angrily.

Both Chloé and Sabrina's laughed before turning their attention back to Alix, "Whatever Alix. You just couldn’t stand being near someone as godlike as Chloé," Sabrina retorted which made Marinette snicker silently.

“'Godlike?' Oh, please! She’s the furthest thing from being a goddess, besides, I see that you’re still her personal slave," Alix mocked.

"So, Nathanaël, how was your Bar Mitzvah?" Marinette asked hoping to stop Chloé from answering.

"Meh," he shrugged. And then, clearly annoyed at Marinette for changing the subject, Chloé tried to explain her point by saying, "My daddy is the mayor just in case you didn’t know, so, I might as well be goddesslike."

"It’s actually godlike, but hey, I’m all down for a woman of power, baby," Kim flirted. He was a tall and muscular Vietnamese-French boy.

"I’m charmed Kim, but I’m in the middle of something right now, however, I’ll get back to you, okay?" Chloé subtly flirted back.

"Okay, you got it babe!" Kim said with a smile.

"So anyways, Marinette just go and sit over beside that new girl over there!" Chloé pointed at the new girl.

"Listen to me carefully! Adrien's arriving today, and since that's going to be his seat, I want to be near him, so this is going to be my seat. GOT IT?!" she finished as she was pointing at the seat next to Nino.

Marinette just blinked in confusion before asking, "Who's Adrien?"

It was Chloé's turn to blink, but this time in bewilderment before saying, "Am I dreaming?!" Both she and Sabrina then laughed. "Can you believe she doesn't know who Adrien is? What rock have you been living under?"

Sabrina followed suit, "Yeah, get out of your cave, Marinette! He's only a famous model."

"And I am his best friend. He adores me. So, you move… go on, move!" Chloé finished.

Well, it's not like the teachers are going to do anything about it anyways, they just would punish me because Chloé keeps on telling them threats that are empty all because the mayor can't close or cut off funding of the school but the school staff always fall for them, Marinette thought to herself.

"Hey you! Who elected you the Queen of Seats?" the new girl spoke up.

"Ooh! Look Sabrina! The new girl is trying to stand up to us, the little do-gooder! What are you gonna do, super newbie? Shoot lasers at me with your glasses?" Chloé sassed. The new girl rolled her eyes, "Wouldn't you like to know," she growled, then walked away and grabbed Marinette by the arm, dragging her away. "Come on," the new girl muttered.

"Wait, I…" Marinette tried to say but tripped and fell, spilling all but one macaroon from the box. "Sorry, sorry, sorry..." Marinette apologized.

Chloé laughed as Mrs. Bustier walked back into the classroom, her notes in hand.

"Is everybody here? Has everyone found a seat? Good, we’ll be able to start," she announced.

"It’s good, relax, girl. It’s no big deal," the new girl assured.

"Ah, I suck, I sure wish I can handle Chloé the way you do," Marinette said.

"You mean the way Majestia does it!" the new girl said as she showed her a picture of the American superhero on her phone. "She says the only thing that allows the forces of evil to triumph is the inaction of good people. Well that girl over there," she pointed at Chloé, "is evil, and we are the good people. So, we can't let her get away with it, because we don’t have the right to let it go!"

"Well, that's easier said than done, plus, she’s not evil, she’s just... complicated is all. She likes to make my life a living hell," Marinette explained, knowing full well why Chloé hated her guts because she hated being in Marinette's debt all because she saved her life all those years ago, Chloé said that Marinette was considered third-class garbage, even though they both lived in Paris, the richest part of France.

"That's because you let her, girl! You just need more confidence!" the new girl told her. Marinette then gave her a genuine smile, something she hadn't done in years, and grabbed the last macaroon from the box, broke it in half, and gave one half to the new girl who smiled back while being introduced, "I'm Marinette Dupain-Cheng."

"My name's Alya Bella Césaire. And don’t mind the glasses, I couldn’t find my contacts today. Probably got stolen by either one of my little sisters Ella and Etta, or hell, maybe they BOTH took them," Alya said as both she and Marinette shook hands.

They ate their halves and the bell rings, signaling the start of the school day.

"It’s okay, I think they look great on you, Alya," Marinette told her.

"Thanks, Marinette," Alya beemed.

"Hey Chloé, I think 'queen' suits you just fine," Kim whispered.

"Why thank you, Kim. You know, you could be my 'king' if you want," Chloé flirted.

"More than happy to," Kim said happily.

Both Alya and Marinette rolled their eyes just as Mrs. Bustier tried to get her class’s attention.

Mrs. Bustier clapped her hands to get her students' attention then said, "Now, for those of you who don't yet know me, I'm Mrs. Bustier. I'll be your teacher this year."

The day wasn't going too badly, mainly thanks to Alya. When Marinette played her flute in music class, she only produced cacophony with it and broke the ears of all of her comrades with one of them saying; "Is that a dog whistle?" and even though Alya ALSO covered her ears along with the rest, she still encouraged Marinette. Later in the gym, when Marinette tried out gymnastics, observed by both Mrs. Bustier and the Principal, Mr. Denis Damocles, only to fail as well, she tumbled down from the balance beam and hitting the ground head first and wallowed like a pancake. Luckily Alya was there too. And during chemistry class Marinette hesitantly poured a chemical from a test tube into another flask, causing an explosion that created a cloud of smoke inside the classroom. The students outside the classroom get shocked as well. Ms. Olga Mendeleiev opened the classroom's door everyone inside came flooding out.

"That is super cool!" Alya excitedly said to Marinette.

At the end of the afternoon, she hugged her. “Come on, keep your head up, Marinette!" she encouraged her. "Alright, I have to go. You call me, okay?" Alya made a telephone gesture just before she left, Marinette frowned yet again. But Alya rushed to her and gave her a tight embrace. As soon as she left, Marinette suddenly felt very alone. The other students looked at her quizzically and began gossiping about her.

"I wish I could make an explosion like that," Juleka said in her usual monotone voice. Though in spite of that, it did sound like she genuinely enjoyed what had happened which did cheer Marinette up ever so slightly. The other students however, were not as genuis.

"You're too much, Marinette!" a female student told her.

"It's like she does it on purpose!" a male student "whispered."

"She's crazy clumsy!" another female student said.

"Whatever she does, better stay away!" a third female student told a fourth female student who then asked Marinette, "Were you born clumsy?"

Marinette's infamous reputation… she hurried to get her things in her locker. Arriving at her locker, Marinette took a deep breath and opened her locker door, only to be greeted by Chloé as soon as she opened it. when Chloé appeared. "Hey, Marinella!" Chloé said as she closed Marinette's locker. "Why don't we braid each other's hair after school? Then, I can strangle you with it! How does that sound? Mmm... what do you say?" I think she really hates me! Marinette thought to herself. Quick, a diversion! She looked over her shoulder. "Wait, is that another girl wearing an Agreste sweater?" Chloé gasped. "Who dares?!" she fumed. Marinette took advantage of the fact that her back is turned to take refuge in the first room she came across. Running off, Marinette bumped into a few students, including Rose, to who she quickly said to her, "Excuse me! Sorry."

Chloé then noticed that Marinette had run off, so she taunted Marinette by saying, "Hmph, you won't escape me, Marinella!"

Marinette then pushed open the door to the library, which was almost deserted at that time of day. She ran inside to hide behind the shelves. Before the door closed, Marinette took a peek at Chloé who was already by the library door. Luckily for her, Chloé didn't see her that easily as she hid quickly. She took a quick peek again before walking out.

"There must be an exit. An emergency exit," Marinette whispered as she leaned on a shelf and softly groaned. "My life is over. I'll have to leave Paris, change my name, dye my hair, probably blue!" she quietly groaned while continuing to lean on the shelf. A little luck here, please. Marinette thought to herself.

Everything Will Be Okay

Summary: She then turned her head to Damian with the softest smile. She leaned in to kiss him. A scream left her and she collapsed backward, only held up by Damian's arms around her. The Charity Event was big, and Damian wanted to make it special by asking the big question. But things don't go to plan.

Ok, so here’s my first real angsty piece! Ya some other fics could be considered as having a little angst in them. But this is the first to be truly angsty. Anyways, I hope you enjoy this!!!!

Mari waved as Damian led her onto the stage. Bruce had just introduced her to the crowd and everyone was excited. They wanted to meet the up-and-coming fashion designer and ice skater. She went to the podium and Damian stood behind her as she smiled at everyone in Gotham and waved. “Marinette!” was shouted from all over in the crowd as reporters wanted to ask questions.

“Marinette is our guest of honor at this Charity Gala. She has done so much to help the community with what she does. There will be an auction for some items she has made. Later on, dinner will be served,” Bruce said with a smile as he looked at the crowd while Mari s leaned her head against Damian’s shoulder with a smile. “Now, a word from my youngest son, Damian.”

Damian smiled as he led Mari up with him. Mari smiled at everyone but looked at Damian confused. He led them to the side of the podium and put his hand into his pocket. He then went to one knee. Mari gasped right alongside the audience. She put her hands in front of her mouth before Damian took her left hand his in and his other hand held a small, velvet box. He smiled happily at her.

“Angel, I have no words to describe what I feel for you. You’ve done so much for through the years we’ve been together. You’ve helped me when you didn’t have to. I love you so much. Will you do me the honor of marrying me?” he asked and Mari nodded frantically.

“Yes!” she said and Damian slid the simple silver ring onto her finger. When Damian stood up, Mari flung herself at Damian.

Mari laughed happily as Damian spun her on the stage. The audience and their families were cheering for them. "My lovely fiancee," Damian whispered and Mari smiled happily at that. They turned to the crowd and Mari waved happily. She then turned her head to Damian with the softest smile. She leaned in to kiss him. A scream left her and she collapsed backward, only held up by Damian's arms around her. There was a bullet hole going through her stomach.

The whole room gasped and Damian looked around. He yelled out as a bullet went through his shoulder. Mari fell out of his grip and he fell to his knees. “Mari!" he gasped and Dick was immediately at her side pressing onto the wound in her stomach. But blood was still flowing. She whimpered in pain as Dick put all his weight onto the wound. A grunt escaped Damian as Tim pressed his hands against the through and through wound to his shoulder. "Everything will be ok, Angel," he whispered and gripped her hand tightly.

She gripped his hand back weakly. Around them, people were panicking. Gordon flipped a table onto its side to block them from any other bullets. He kneeled beside them and looked over the barricade. "Get the buses here now! We have a victim bleeding out!" he yelled and shot his gun at the broken skylight. Bruce and Jason were gone. In their places were Red Hood and Batman.

Mari gasped as her weak grip became looser, her skin was even paler. She turned her head to look at Damian. “I-I l-lo-love you….so-so much,” she whispered out. Mari’s eyes rolled back and she went limp.

“Mari! Open your eyes!” Damian called, tears were in his eyes as he gripped Mari’s hand. The ambulances finally arrived and got the two loaded up with the brothers in both ambulances, gripping their hands.

The ambulances reached the hospital and the gurneys were rushed out and into the hospital with Dick and Tim behind them. “Shooting at Wayne’s Charity Gala! Incoming are two victims, Damian Wayne and his fiancee Marinette Dupain-Cheng. Damian has a through-and-through GSW to the shoulder, take him to Trauma 1! Marinette has a GSW to the abdomen, bleeding heavily. Already lost lots of blood! Get all the O-neg you can get and meet us in OR 1! More victims are on the way!” the paramedic shouted as doctors and nurses rushed forward and ran Mari to an elevator while a few others pulled Damian into Trauma 1. Damian was frantically reaching out to the door with fear written on his face.

“Mari!” he shouted and the nurses hushed him as they got him ready to deal with the wound.

“She’ll be just fine. The best surgeons are working on her,” a nurse said. “Just grip my hand ok? Just grip it with all the fear and anxiety you have, just let it out,” she whispered and Damian gripped her hand tightly. Tears finally escaped as he thought about Mari. Dick and Tim stood in the entrance with pained looks.

Damian looked so terrified and helpless. They felt that way too. The doctors looked terrified when they saw Mari. The nurses at the station there had them walk over and walked them through the paperwork for the two. Once that was done, she led them to the staff break room to call Bruce and Sabine. Tim called Bruce and was quick to explain what happened. “The shooter is still there. Bruce won’t be here until they catch him,” Tim said and Dick nodded. He then dialed up Sabine. Sabine was sobbing when she answered the phone, probably from fear and shock.

“Sabine, Mari’s in surgery right now. Damian seems to be fine according to the doctors. I’ll keep you updated until you arrive,” Dick replied.

It took an hour but Sabine and her husband along with Bruce were at the hospital finally. They were directed to the waiting room where Dick and Tim were shown too after calling. Tom held his wife as she sobbed into his chest as she thought about Mari. Bruce was at the desk getting an update and finalizing the paperwork.

Shouting had them looking up. Damian was being carted out of Trauma One. He was unconscious. Bruce looked at his son with worry and fear plain as day on his face. “What’s happening?” he demanded and a nurse went over to him.

“The bullet left a fragment in him and it’s causing problems. We’re going up to OR 2 to get it out,” he replied and Bruce nodded slowly. The nurse at the desk led him to the waiting room and got him and the others some water. There were other people in there looking at them with sympathy. Some were even from the Gala. Jason was pacing in the corner while Tim was curling in on himself. Dick had a hand on Tim’s back but he was hunched over too. Half an hour later, a nurse came in with a small smile.

“Bruce Wayne?” she called and Bruce stood up.

“Is he fine?” he asked and the nurse nodded.

“He’s fine. He’s in recovery right now,” the nurse said and a sigh left Bruce as he collapsed back onto the seat. His other sons looked relieved too. But not fully.

“Wh-what about Mari?” Dick asked and the nurse looked down.

“She’s still in surgery, it’s touch-and-go,” she admitted and they all looked down. Sabine hiccuped into Tom’s shoulder as he pulled her into a hug.

“You can wait with Damian in recovery if you want. Once Ms. Dupainn-Cheng is out of surgery, she’ll be taken to Damian’s room,” she said and they nodded at that. So the nurse leads them out of the waiting room. Damian looked dazed when they entered. “He woke up a few minutes ago and is on pain meds right now. He’ll be out of it for a little,” she explained and they nodded before she left.

“Hey,” Bruce said softly as he sat down next to Damian’s bed. Damian gave a small smile to his family. They could see some bandages around his injured shoulder, going to his chest. “How do you feel?” he asked.

“Tired, sore,” Damian replied after a moment. “Hows-?” he asked and his brothers shook their heads.

“She’s in surgery still,” Dick replied and Damian frowned. After another half hour, Mari was still in surgery. They could only expect it would be awhile. The nurse allowed them to take Damian out for some fresh air in a wheelchair. When they got downstairs, they heard a commotion. Blocked off to make a way for ambulances were reporters. They were talking and asking questions. A doctor was giving them the best answers he could when they saw Bruce pushing Damian with Sabine and Dick behind them. Tom and the others decided to stay in the room.

“Mr. Bruce! Is it true that the shooter at your Gala was a competitor?” a reporter asked.

“How is Damian after being shot?” another asked.

“Where is Marinette?” another asked and Bruce sighed.

“I don’t know who the shooter was. Commissioner Gordon will tell me when he knows for certain,” Bruce started and looked down at Damian who looked annoyed at the reporters. “My son is recovering and we were hoping to get some fresh air in peace. As for Marinette, she’s still in surgery. Now, can you please back off and let the doctors do their work and allow me and my son to get some air in peace?” he asked and the reporters nodded. They talked to the cameras to update what was happening but left Bruce in peace.

“Thank you, Mr. Wayne. I’m Dr. Zia, I worked on Damian,” he introduced and Bruce shook his hand.

“Thank you for taking care of my son,” Bruce said and Dr. Zia nodded running a hand through his black hair.

“It’s no problem. I just wish Damian’s fiancee was out of surgery. I know how stressful this can be,” Dr. Zia admitted and both Bruce, Damian, and Sabine nodded their agreement.

"Dr. Zia Code Blue in OR 1. Repeat, Code Blue in OR 1. Dr. Zia, head to OR 1," a voice rang and the families gasped. Mari was in OR 1. And with how the hospital seemed to panic at that, they could assume Code Blue meant bad news. Dr. Zia’s eyes widened before he sprinted into the hospital and ran up the stairs.

“Please, no,” Damian whispered and Bruce went in front of Damian and crouched down, placing his hands on Damian’s knees.

“Hey, they’re doing everything they can. So don’t panic ok? Right now, Mari needs you to not panic. That won’t help either of you,” Bruce said and Damian nodded shakily. “Why don’t we go back, huh?” he asked and Damian nodded, trying to take deep breaths. Dick held his hand out and Damian gripped it tightly as he took deep breaths. When the finally reached his room, his breathing was stable. Tom, Jason, and Tom looked scared. They heard the announcement. It was startling to see Jason look so terrified.

But they couldn’t blame him. They were scared too. Damian stood up slowly from the wheelchair. Bruce was next to him, ready to catch him if he stumbled or just fell. He slowly got onto the bed with a grunt. All the could do was wait.

It felt like hours for them, when really, only an hour passed. Dr. Zia and another doctor came in looking exhausted but happy. “This is Dr. Hughes, he was the main surgeon for Marinette’s surgery,” Dr. Zia said and everyone nodded.

“She’s out of surgery now and is getting cleaned up as we speak,” Dr. Hughes started. “It was hard, the bullet did a lot of damage but we were able to repair everything. She did code a couple of times, but I’m confident she’ll recover just fine. But she won’t be able to do much for a while,” he explained and Sabine nodded with tears going down her face. “Here she is,” he said with a smile as a nurse pushed an unconscious Mari into the room.

“Hey there, look who’s here, Marinette,” the nurse whispered with a smile on her lips. “I imagine you both would want to be in the same room,” she said pushing the bed next to Damian. Damian smiled sadly at Mari and reached a hand out. The nurse smiled and put Mari’s hand into Damian’s. “If you need anything, just press that button or ask someone for me, Mollie,” she said and Damian nodded understand. With that, she walked out of the room.

“Marinette will be unconscious for at least another ten minutes if not longer. We’ll come in to check on the both of you while you’re here. To be safe, we’re holding the both of you here for a few days. After that, you can be signed out with some prescriptions for pain meds and antibacterials to prevent infections,” Dr. Zia said and they nodded understanding. “I’ll see you later,” he said and the two left the room to go deal with other patients.

“I told you, Angel, everything will be ok,” Damian whispered as Sabine and Tom sat on Mari’s other side. Bruce sat on his other side while his brothers were at the bed’s ends.

“Dick, Jason, Tim,” Bruce said and they looked over at him. “You guys go home soon to get some sleep, ok? If you want, you can wait till Mari wakes up, but after, you need to go home and rest,” Bruce said and they nodded. They then sat down on chairs to rest until Mari did wake up.

A knock sounded after a bit and Bruce looked over at the door to see Gordon there. “How are they?” he asked nodding to the couple.

“They’re resting. Though Mari hasn’t woken up yet but the doctors aren’t worried,” Bruce said and Gordon nodded understanding.

“We caught the shooter a few hours ago,” Gordon started as he leaned against a wall. “It took us this long for him to crack. He attacked the Gala ono his own. Apparently, he felt Wayne Enterprises wasn’t doing good. He planned your company for the hospital not saving his daughter. So he wanted to make you suffer by killing your son. But he wasn’t a good shot at least,” Gordon said and Bruce nodded.

“Thank you for telling me,” he said and Gordon nodded as he pushed himself from the wall.

“Of course. The man will be tried for attempted murder,” he said and left. Bruce had a soft smile as he looked at Damian holding Mari’s hand while he slept.

“Yeah, everything will be ok now,” Bruce whispered.

Ok, so here’s my first real angst piece!!! I hope you enjoyed it!!! I had fun writing it!! I also had to do a little research to make sure the hospital was slightly correct. I know that there’s probably something wrong, but I wanted to at least get some things correct. Anyways, until next time!!! -Love Willa <3<3<3

Bruce “I’m Never Going To Have A Normal Family” Wayne

@ozmav Because they made the Maribat Au

@thebookwormfairy Because their account is where I found the post

Inspired by this post

~~~

Bruce was never going to have a normal family, was he?

When Damian, the last person Bruce ever expected this from, got a girlfriend, Bruce was hopeful that maybe, maybe, this girl would bring a slight sense of normality into his family.

Yeah, those dreams were shattered pretty quickly.

When Bruce first met Marinette Dupin-Cheng, his first thought was; ‘new child.’

Black hair, blue eyes, has been mistreated; Hell yeah! New daughter!

But he resisted the urge. He could wait for Damian to propose.

Anyways, he adored the petite french girl. Smart, kind, talented, and all without having an ego or being a push over.

When the boys met her, they fell in love with her just as quickly. (Tim and Jason are still trying to figure out how the Demon Spawn got a literal Sunshine embodiment to date him.)

However, they unfortunately didn’t see her in person often as she still lived in France. But now, three months later, Mari was coming to visit Gotham.

To celebrate, Bruce decided to take the family out to dinner to a super fancy rich person restaurant.

(Marinette looked like she was about to pass out just by looking at the size of the doors and immediately felt self conscious of what she was wearing because Bruce didn’t tell them where they were eating or to dress nice so she was wearing her normal pink pants, white floral shirt, black jacket, and ballerina flats.)

Despite that, dinner went off wonderfully. Marinette told them about her newest fashion projects and how her parents were doing (Bruce and the boys noticed she purposefully avoided talking about school and all made a mental agreement to look into it later.) and the boys did the same. (They did avoid talking about their ‘nightly activities’ that the girl didn’t know about.)

However, as usual, trouble follows them. They were just finishing their meals when Killer Croc made his appearance.

He had been caught by someone while he was steeling drugs from a warehouse not that far from the restaurant. So, Croc decided to go the the restaurant and hold the people there ransom, knowing that Batman would come after him.

What he didn’t know was that Batman was already in the same room as him.

And in quite the pickle.

Bruce looked around the restaurant at the terrified patrons and then at Marinette. He and the boys where stuck between a rock and a hard place. There was no way for them to slip out and change, and even if there was, there was no way Marinette wouldn’t notice their disappearance.

What where they going to do?

Screams tore Bruce out of his thoughts.

He looked around and quickly learned that they weren’t screams of terror, but screams of shock.

Marinette, sweet, kind, SMALL Marinette had grabbed Killer Croc by his tail and pulled him out of the restaurant.

Everyone in the restaurant stared, dumbfounded, as the petite french girl with pigtails dragged one of Gotham’s deadliest villains out by the tail, which was bigger than her whole body, mind you.

The moment Marinette stepped out of the restaurant with Killer Croc, the patrons immediately called the police.

The Batfam ran out after Mari, praying that the girl was ok. What they didn’t expect was Killer Croc on his knees in front of the girl, looking like a child who’s parent caught their hand in the cookie jar, while Marinette scolded him.

For once, the boys had no idea what to do, so they just watched her with wide eyes.

By the time Gordon and the Police Force arrived, Killer Croc was crying and apologizing.

(Gordon had seen a lot of shit in Gotham, but this takes the cake. (Mmm, cake. Maybe he could request Marinette to make him some once she was done lecturing the mutated villain.))

After Croc had been arrested, Mari looked over at the boys with a smile before it dropped when she saw their stunned faces.

“What?” She questioned, genuinely confused.

Bruce groaned and held his head in his hands.

He’s never going to have a normal family.

~~~

Sorry if I screwed up Killer Croc. I don’t know as much about him as I do the other villains.

(I also know that Killer Croc doesn’t have a tail, but in ‘Son of Batman’ he was upgraded with one, so I just used that.)

Damienette arranged marriage: part 23

Credits: Miraculous Ladybug team for the elements I take from MLB show. DC for their characters, @ozmav for the AU, @maribat-archive for giving me access to so many different stories to have take inspirations from, @thyladyanput for idea for Chat Damian and me for the plot.

Part 9 Part 10 Part 11 Part 12 Part 13 part 14 part 15

Part 22

Damienette arranged marriage: part 23

----------------

“[...]Coincidence? I think not!” He screamed.

“That is indeed some revelation…” Kagami started, but Tim shushed her.

“That’s not the end. I believe that Chat Noir is now working with Hawkmoth!”

---------------------

“What!?” Was the most common reaction, coupled with drawing a very sharp weapon.

“Silence!” Tim screamed. Everyone immediately calmed down, awaiting explanation or something. Instead, he just pulled out a small pocket flask and took a deep swing.

“It was coffee, wasn't it?” Damian deadpanned.

“No Demon Spawn. It was the best brandy I could steal from Jason.” He paused for a moment. “Of course it was coffee. Do I look like some barbarian to you?!”

“Just get with the story Poirot.” Chloe urged him while shifting in her place. Inside, she was wondering if Sabine would borrow her some of those weapon of hers.

“Fine. Look. It’s either that or hawkmoth is even bigger idiot than I believed him to be, which is highly unlikely. He akumatized someone who had one thing he desired. Instead of making him hand the ring immediately, he just allowed him to run free. It doesn’t make much sense.”

“Chat got possessed by akuma many times. The always just disregarded it and wanted to take advantage of his abilities to take me out.” Marinette pointed out.

“Yes, but I already established that Akumatization distorts your perception of reality. It makes you focus only on the goal and disregard things like common sense. But hawkmoth has no such thing. He could just demand of him to give the ring and then send him after you. But he didn’t. It’s either that or he was compromised after. But the fact stood that Hawkmoth had to know who Chat was even by simple fact of what he desired. And the new upgrades around the manor. They would not allow Chat Noir or Adrien to sneak out any time and he was sighted helping people around the city several times. He just doesn’t come close to Ladybug or other heroes.”

“So he makes sure people don’t suspect a thing while keeping safe distance from us, acting like he is just throwing a hissy fit about me being married.”

“Mari-san. I still can not believe the feline learned about the marriage before us.” She motioned to her and Luka.

“Sorry. I wanted to get him of me. And it was actually a good strategy to make my secret identity safe.”

Damian nodded. “That was indeed brilliant. Marinette Dupain-Cheng was not married. They would not accuse Ladybug of lies and they would not suspect a fifteen years old girl of being betrothed to anyone.”

“Yes. But if I knew that he would act like this and… betray us, I would not disregard his feelings like that.”

“Is that self-pity I hear Mari-bug?” Chloe suddenly turned to her. “I thought I told you that you are not to do that in regard to that blasted moggy.”

“Sorry Chlo.” Marinette gave her a sheepish smile. Stephanie had to hold back a chuckle.

“Fine. Carry on Dupin.” Chloe waved her hand at Tim, who shrugged at the nickname and displayed another thing. This time it was a video of final moments of Chat d’Amour. He played it whole and then paused and backed it. He played it slowly this time, commenting in real life time.

“The video has no sound recorded and magic of the miraculous makes lip-reading impossible even with strongest software available. But look closely. First, he talks with Hawkmoth through this butterfly connection. Then, the akuma is released. Now look at his expression.” Tim paused and zoomed in, sharpening the image. “He looks disappointed. Not in regretful way. It is more in the lines of ‘I agree with the judgement’. Now one could say that he just made a mistake and was ashamed. But! He runs off in the direction of Agreste Manor instead of facing Ladybug. Think why would Hawkmoth recall his precious Akuma. It was only After Jon arrived. Chat could very well fight on or change strategy. Hawkmoth never cared about casualties in his Akumas. So why suddenly care about this one? Why take the power away and make him run. Chat is fast, agile and sneaky. He could avoid Jon and just deliver the ring. The decision was pretty much worst tactical move ever. Unless! You factor the parental instincts and the fact that he could take the ring anyway. They are working together or at least know each other’s identities!” Tim proclaimed.

“Nice work Veronica. I am actually impressed.” Chloe complimented.

“Veronica?” Sabine looked funny at the mayor’s daughter. The older woman felt a bit strange sitting in there with all the kids.

“Ugh! Veronica Mars! Seriously? It’s a classic! Ridiculous! Utterly Ridiculous!” Chloe complained.

“This is just suspicion. We can’t make a move based on suspicion.” Marinette sighted.

“We can. It is enough to justify storm on Agreste Manor.”

“If we are wrong we risk complete failure. We will alert Hawkmoth about our arrival…”

“Actually…” Stephanie grinned. “We don’t need to risk anything. We know Adrien Agreste is Chat Noir. The hero who’s gone rogue. You are the guardian Ladybug. Isn’t it your job to reign him in?”

“Yes, but…” Ladybug was still unconvinced.

“We will use this as an excuse to enter the mansion. Chat lost the privilege of being a hero long ago. He is no longer helping and to be honest he was never a good helper.” Tim commented.

“Okay. If this is for the best…”

“It is sweety. Don’t cry over the milk spilled by a moggy that will end up skinned anyway.”

“Maman!”

“Fine. But I know where he lives, so he better not try anything else with you.” Sabine threatened.

“It’s decided then. The Miraculous team will enter through the front doors while the batboys and I use the commotion to sneak inside.” Stephanie beamed.

“Yes. If Chat won’t give up his ring, we will have a fight at our hands. It is possible that Hawkmoth and Mayura also get in the fight and they might drag the Gorilla into it. We must be prepared that this is when the final battle happens…” Tim kept his emotions in check by downing another hip-flask of coffee. Where does he even keep all that?

“Papa will help us on this one. And maybe we should call the cavalry from Gotham?”

“Relax Angel. We have two to one number advantage. We can deal with them.” Damian reassured her.

‘Fine. We two weeks until we leave. It is decided then. In one week, we storm the Agreste Manor.”

The Truth about the scarf comes to light. And Natiles mistakes

Adrien learns whom made his scarf from someone you wouldn't expect. On the first real cold day in Paris Adrien pulls out his scarf to wear. But before he can get out of the house his father stops him and asks him about it. At first he is confused as it was a gift from the very man whom had gotten. As his father takes a closer look he states the he was the Miss Dupin-Chang does good work. He might have to commission her to make a few more of these. Adrien is shocked but says he will pass on the word to her.

When he gets to school he asks her about the scarf and she sighs telling him he looked so happy that his father had gotten him something other than a pin. That she couldn't take that away from him and she asks that he forgive him form keeping it from him. He tells her that is what friend do something right. She smiles and nods at that.

Later that night he talks to his father not taking Natile no he is busy for an answer he want to know why he took credit for Marinette's gift. His father is shocked to hear that question and explain he had arraigned for Photo guy to take him to pick out a camera and give him lesson as he knew his son was losing interests in modeling and taken an interest in taking picture. When told that never happened, his father asks Natile why she did not arrange this as he had told her to. It was an honest mix up on her part, she states she will fix this right away.

Once she is gone Adrien asks why he was given pins in the years before? At his fathers confused face Adrien explains the pins he was given every morning on his birthday. And to his shock his father laughs and says it was your mother's idea of a joke. When you where little you use to still my pin and she got you one for your birthday one year. And you didn't even want your real gift we had gotten for you later that day at the party. Told everyone we had given you a gift at breakfast that morning. How you had asked for the next year. She keep it up and with her gone I felt the need to do the same. But I always made sure you have a gift from us a real one that is. Is the answer he gets

Marinette in the movie has a much more harmless look and demeanor! It's understandable, because this also happened in the series, at the beginning of the first season! 🩷

Adrinette April Day 4- Hide me

@adrinetteapril

Marinette panted heavily as she sprinted away from the crowd of people chasing her. It had been less then 2 hours since her new found relationship went public by accident and already she was been mobbed my reporters and fans alike.

She had just rounded a corner when she ran into something hard. She started to fall backwards, she yelled as she squeezed her blue eyes shut, waiting for impact. It never came, instead she felt strong arms wrap around her waist, catching her.

She peaked opened her eyes slowly to see non other than Chatnoir in front of her. She opened her mouth ready to thank him, but was cut off.

“I think she went that way!” She heard a voice yell as an abundance of footsteps got closer. Her eyes widened in panic, what would the tabloids say if they saw her with Chatnoir? Expecially like this? She thought as she noticed his hands still on her waist.

“Quick, Hide me!” She yelped in panic.

“What?” He laughed, slightly confused. She heard footsteps right around the corner now.

“No time to explain!” With that she jumped into his arms, grabbing the baton from his his lower back and extending it. “Hold on!” The Pair got shot up into the air, Chat hissed a little in suprised. A shriek left Marinettes lips as they started to tip over, oh god, she hadn’t thought this through.

Her small scream of panic seemed to knock some sense of awareness into Chatnoir, he quickly tightened his grip on the black haired girl and took the lead, jumping from roof top to roof top with the aid of his baton.

Once the we’re far out of sight and safe on the top of a building, Chatnoir put Marinette back on her feet and sat down to rest, she followed his lead.

“So, what was that all about, Miss Dupin-Cheng?” He asked as he leaned back onto his hands. Marinette had to admit, it felt wrong to her her real name come out of her partners mouth and it threw her off a little.

“I was getting mobbed.” She sheepishly replied, embarrassed about the whole ordeal. Chats eyes widened in shock and worried expression crossed his masked features.

“Are you okay, Marinette?” He asked in a low and soft voice. Marinette smiled kindly at her kitty, he was so caring even to strangers. Chatnoir barely knew Marinette, only meeting her a handful of times throughout his time as a hero. Once when Nathaniel got akumatised and the other when she confessed her love to him.

“Yeah, I barely made it out with my life but I’ll be fine.” She joked but Chats face remained serious.

“It isn’t a joking matter, I personally know how rough reporters can be, some of the stuff they say it absolutely awful.” He explained, putting a hand of support on her shoulder.

“They’re just doing their jobs, my best friend is an inspiring reporter so I’m kind of used to the hard hitting questions.” She joked, chat laughed along with her a fond smile on his face. “The fans, they were a little mean though..” she sighed sadly. Chatnoir’s face dropped, the light heart expression from earlier gone.

“Fans?”

“Uh, yeah.” She awkwardly said scratching her cheek awkwardly. “I’m dating the model, Adrien Agreste now and we accidentally became public a few hour ago. I’ve been getting chased around Paris ever since.”

“Are you really Okay?”

“I’ll be fine, I just don’t want Adrien to find out.” She groaned. A frown appeared on Chatnoir’s face at that. Why didn’t she want him to know? Marinette must have noticed the confusion on his face so she explained.

“I really don’t want him to worry, you bailed me out. I’m safe, but he’s a bit off a worry wart,”

A flurry of emotions flickered over Chats face as he contemplated what she said, he decided to ignore it for know and talk about it with her as Adrien. He instead settled on a secretive smile.

“A model. Hey?” He teased, Marinette blushed slightly. “Well, I guess that means your over me?” Marinette jumped, not expecting him to say that at all.

“I’m kidding, it’s all good.” He laughed taking pity on the poor girl whose face was currently stained red. Marinette just buried her face in her hands before mumbling. Chat screwed his face up in confusion, not being able to hear what she was saying.

“What?” He gently tugged her hands way from her face, so she could speak clearly.

“It’s just,” she bit her lip, something Chatnoir has learned to be a nervous habit of hers. “His fans, even the reporters, keep questioning why me? And they’re right.. Why me? Marinette Dupin-Cheng isn’t special.” Her face looked so heartbroken. Chatnoir wanted to reach his arms out and hold her while whispering all the little things he loves about her until she felt better. Unfortunately he was Chatnoir right now not Adrien Agreste, so he forcefully keep his arms stiff at his sides and tried to use his words instead.

“Marinette, if this Adrien kid choose you, then he obviously see something that everyone who knows you sees. You’re very special! You’re one of the kindest people I know, you’re selfless, thoughtful, creative and smart. Ignore what anyone else has too say, your relationship is between you and Adrien. If he loves you then their is nothing too worry about.” He gave her shoulder a tight squeezed before shuffling a little back, he needed to put some distance between them before he kissed her.

“Thank you, Chatnoir.” Marinette smiled, she was still fidgeting, Chatnoir could tell she still had her doubts. He made a mental note to cherish her more as Adrien. “I just.” She started before cutting herself off. Chatnoir’s feline-like curiousity spiked, he urged her to go on.

“I just, really love him.” Chatnoir felt his heart beat out of control, this was the first time he had ever heard her say those words about Adrien. “It’s crazy, We got off to a bad start when we first meet.” She smiled, Chat closed his eyes and remembered the day they meet and how she thought he was putting gum on her seat. “I didn’t give him the chance to explain himself, I guess I’m pig headed like that.” He wanted desperately to tell her how much he loved that about her, her strong will.

“But, when he finally explained himself to me, everything changed. My heart gave out when he gave me his umbrella, only to be revived by the pure electricity I felt when our hands touched and since that day, it’s like it has beated only for him. That was three years ago and we have only been dating for a month.” She sighed to herself before looking out into the horizon, as the sun set. The sky bleed bright shades of oranges and pinks, that highlighted Marinette in such a way that Chatnoir couldn’t possible believe the word beautiful had a meaning before Marinette Dupin-Cheng.

His heart was beating impossible loud, he was scared she was going to hear it.

“That was..” his mouth went dry as all the moisture appeared in his eyes. He quickly collected a single teardrop that fell out of his eyes and flowed over his masked cheekbones. “That was beautiful, Marinette.” She turned her head towards him and gave him a soft smile.

“Without a doubt, I know that Agreste is the luckiest man alive.” He whispered, still completely in awe that this magnificent women in front of him was his and he was hers. He felt him felt wanting to his her again, but his identity must remain a secret.

“And if he doesn’t agree, I’ll have to kick his ass.” He joked loudly, purposely trying to kill the serious atmosphere. Marinette giggled a little at his antics.

“It’s getting late, I should get you home.” He annouced, standing up and stretching. “Come on, are you still at the bakery?” He asked,fully knowing that she was in fact living there. She nodded her head as he walked over to him, holding on tightly as he lifted them of the roof and into the air, heading towards her home.

So, I just watched ML ”Despair Bear” and....

It’s really bad. I mean really, really bad. It is probably one of the worst episode I have ever seen. Don’t get me wrong, I would have loved a Chloe redemption episode but only if its done well. This episode is the opposite of that. This episode is the opposite of all the things good in redemption episodes. It is extremly juvenil and immensly contradicting. It made me so mad that decide to make this post to exprcess how angry I am, no matter if no-one reads it.

Let me explain.

Now, there are somethings I do like. I thought that the Adrien and Marinette bits were really cute and sweet❤️

I also liked the design of the akuma. They could have simple gone with just a Teddybear but instead they decided to make it like a mini pacific rim jaeger with him inside the small teddybear controling it with string (like a reverse puppetmaster).

But all of this is ruined by how incredebly bad the rest of it is.

It begins rather well actually with Chloe being jealous of Marinette and her dad showing the class how to make macarons with the class intriguing. She tries to get ”revenge” by calling the fire-department unnesserary and blameing Marinette (I do like how the Principal refuess to let the Firefighter Captain go.) It doesn’t work and the whole school gets collectly punished .....except for Chloe, threatens to call her father.

Unsuprisingly, Adrien does not like this and threatens to stop being Chloes friend if she dosen’t start treating people nicer. This shocks Chloe and send her in to a minor crisis. Her butler tries to help her with her old teddybear. And that (Chat pun incoming) miraculously makes her remeber how to be nice.

And it is at this moment when things start going south. From here forward, we are give the expression that Chloe simple dosen’t know how to be nice. Which is the most ridiculous thing ever. Everyone knows how to be nice, even bad people. Its in our DNA. But apperantly not Chloe. She’s apperantly evil incarnated. Okey, now I am just nitpicking but it honestly feels like it. Everytime she interacts with someone in the episode she starts out mean and hurtful but is then guilt trippen by her Teddybear into being nice.

Thats not how you justicfy a bully. Thats not how justicefy her actions. ”O She don’t know to be nice. Thats why she is a bitch” Its the most childish, lazy, stupid reason in the history of fiction. The only hint at reason why she is a bully, is a 30 second glimse of her presumably mother apparantly leaving. Thats not enough. You could have a longer more clear flashback of her mother leaving or her having some kind of speech or monolog expresing it. You could have shown that reason for her MENTALY HURTING HER CLASSMATES is because of a mixture hate and hurt from being abonded by her mother and her father spoilng her with gifts and the appcitance of responsebity to cheer her up from losing her mother. BUT YOU DIDN’t

And the ending is probably one worst my eyes have seen. The person who thought that this ending was good should be shot out of a cannon on top of the Eiffeltower.

After the entire ordeal Chloe invites over Mr Dupin-Cheng to help the party gooers make their own macarons. She later tells Adrien that the reason was so nobody would be mad at her for calling the fire-departement. This should really set of enormous alarm bells. Then Adrien tells her that he knew she could be nice and they pinkie swear on remaing friends. And then THAT PISS COLOURED BITCH walks over to his friends and starts to insult them like she been bootling it all up the entire time. AND THEN Adrien (and the show for that matter) is like ”O Well looks like she will never change”. 🎼WOOAAH WOOAAH WAAAH🎼

WHAT THE ACTUAL FUCK ADRIEN. She betrayed your trust and started insult and bully YOUR friends when she knew she was safe. She made Mylene cry, for pete sake. And it was here that this entire episode became unforgivebal. You can’t have a redemption episode and not have redem herself. And then play the whole fucking thing for laughs. People are hurt by bullying, you know.

And the worst part is that it didn’t have to be this way. You could have actually had a heartful episode where we could have found out her tragic backstory. Where we could feeled a little sympathy from her and seen actual trying to be better in not a stupid, comical and juvenil fashion but actually caring and heartfelt. BUT you didn’t.
