The two demons

the constest

Marinette's POV

"So melody what is this conetst about?" Luka aksed me. "You need to write about yor class." "Wait you are going to write about a bunch of sheep? Maribug, I support you but I don't think that we'll be chosen." Chloe said, 'Gami joined her. "I believe you can't really lie about it either. Sorry Mari." I smirked. "Don't worry I won't lie about this. And if our class doesn't get picked. I can still get to Gottham easily, it's just that like this we have a way to stop Lie-la once and for all."

"To me it looks like there is not much time left if you want to do this. All the letters must be sent in 5 days." Alix said while looking at her phone. I knew we don't have a lot of time but it is enough for me. "Well in that case I am going to need peace, this means that I will need to keep Lila out of this."

"How are you planning to do that?" Kim asked, and I answered. "I will stay here, Lila is not allowed to set foot in this hotel, so it should work." "But won't that affect your learning?" Max asked slightly concerned. I simply stated facts. "It won't because we gratuated early, in fact I could have done it at the age of 8." "Then why didn't you?" Alix wanted to know. "Because my mother killed my teacher." I explained and three of them started laughing. "Yea, as if." Queenie stepped in. "Um... she wasn't joking." Then the laughter died.

"Mari when are you going to start?" Kagami asked, so I told her the answer. "Tommorow after breakfast, I will work every day nearly all the time, except when I'm eating or decide to take a break." 

~~Tomorrow~~

Chloe's POV

We were going to school, Mari is not with us, the last thing she needs right now is a liar and a bunch of sheep. I insisted we call this whole operation 'The two demons'. The plan is quite simple. 1. step get permission for Marinette to not come here. It should be easy enough, if she refuses I will use my secret weapon. It's possible that it is not really a secret, but it will work.

"Where is Marinette, she usually comes as early as possible." The maybe-not-the-worst teacher asked. "Actually that's what we wanted to talk to you about." Luka told her. "Why, is she sick?" I took it as my job to explain. "Marinette has a lot more responsibilities than anyone should, and in order to keep up with all of that without having a mental breakdown, she will not show up at school. And since she has graduated already she won't stay behind any school work." I explained her, and I didn't lie.

Buginette does have more responsibilities than anyone else, she can't possibly stay behind her school work and if Lila does something too much it could lead to a mental breakdown. And once that breakdown would start it most likely wouldn't end for kwami only knows how long. And that could bring the end of the world if Hawkmoth decides to akumatize her. So if the teacher will not accept the fact that Mari needs to stay home for some time, I might as well get her fired.

"I suppose she can stay home, but only because she graduated and doesn't really have anything more to learn." Oh my god turns out she can actually understand simple things. I'm impressed.

Marinette's POV

I just woke up. I haven't slept for a few days so if I were to go to school today I would be terribly late. I checked my phone and saw a message from Chloe. It said "The teacher said you can stay home. You should have more than enough time to participate in the contest."

I dressed in something comfortable, then I quickly ate, and stated working on my essey.  I just had to write about each of my classmates, and tell the reason why I want to win the trip to Gotham. It wasn't anything I couldn't manage, but I had to do my best.

I started working on the essay. To make my work easier, I first just wrote everyone's name and information. After I will find a way to explain everything, without telling about bullying.

~~After 3 days~~

So I have been getting no sleep, not that it is something new. I have time until tommorow to sent this. "And... done." I said to myself as I finally finished. It was nice to be able not to put up with Lila for 3 whole days, but this comes with a price. She had more than enough time to think of new lies about me. And as much as I hate it I have to be able to count her lies. Just so I can make sure she gets sued for it as well.

I luckily have wonderful friends, they were writing down every lie she told. As much as I want to stay home and never leave again I want to go to Gotham more, plus exposing Lila is a bonus. The trip will last until summer, and a bit more. Since I won't be spending much time in school anymore might as well make something good out of it.

Thanks to being the main heroine of Paris I know to always have a plan B just in case, so even if I don't get picked. I had more than enough money to move to Gotham by myself. Which is something I will do.  Being a famous designer and a singer has its benefits, I guess you could say like father like doughter.

Since I am the guardian, I can get to any of the miraculous at any time of the day, even the bee, dragon and snake one. The only 2 miraculous I can't use are the butterfly and the peacock. I am a very powerful guardian, one of my powers is telepathy with other kwamis, so I can ask Pollen, Sass or Longg to bring me the miraculous and if they are somewhere too far Kaalki can help.  This doesn't work with Nooroo or Dusuu because Hawkmoth and Mayura have blocked their connections to the outside world, meaning I can't get in contact with them unless Hawkmoth himself allows it.

I sent my essay and started to get ready for my pratrol. The rest of my team is sleeping, we split the patrols so everyone would have a day were they go by themselves, 3 days without patrols and then 3 days were we all go. I insisted I go everynight, because I really have nothing better to do. I mean there is no way I am going to seep so easily so patrols is the best way to spend my time.

Here is the thing that night even if I wanted to, I couldn't fall asleep, I have too many thoughts about the contest, and if I win I still won't be able to sleep, because I will be too exited, and if I don't win I still will not sleep, because I will be too angry about the fact that I have to face Lie-la and won't be able to expose her.
