In Another World (Miraculous Ladybug)

(Storyline A) Chapter 9: Allover Again

"It's Paris." Her voice was so soft yet so strong. Nino almost didn't hear her. 

"What do we do?" He squeezed her hand tightly. 

"What do we want to do?" Mari looked around her. 

"That's your home isn't it?" Edwards's voice broke the silence. 

"You two should go home, raise your baby with your families," Maryweather spoke softly. 

What about Adrien and Alya? Mari looked at him with panic.

He took a deep breath, he knew he had to be strong for his wife, We can only hope it's been at least seven years there. 

What about... Mari's hand went to her stomach. 

Alice knelt next to Mari, "You've been the best friend I could ask for Mari, but I think you need to risk it, you have to believe your baby will be fine." Alice hugged Mari, "I'll miss you though." Nino watched as Maryweather joined in on the hug. The men he'd grown to love shared a group hug. 

They were gonna go home. They waved goodbye to Dou Luna and stepped through the portal.

A white light engulfed them, and they were back in Paris, standing on the rink where they had been taken from so many years ago, if he remembered right they had left Paris in the late evening, and it was now mid-morning. The first thing Nino heard was Mari's sop, he looked over to her, and saw why she was crying, they were teenagers again. Her baby was gone, his baby was gone...

Shelly, we we're... Wait he could still hear her? This was about to be a problem. He didn't have time to answer though, they were wrapped in a group hug. 

"Thank Kwaimi it worked!" Adrien's voice filled his ears. 

"Your both okay!" Alya's voice followed. 

Adrien and Alya pulled them to close them and kissed their partners. Both Nino and Mari were stunned. Master Fu cleared his throat, "Kids give them some room, they did just come back, from who knows where." 

Is Mari's hand still sitting on her stomach, "What? How?" 

Adrien took her hands in his, "Oh my lady you would have been proud! Alya and I used your Miraculous and saved the day, and after the Ladybugs didn't bring you two back, we decided to use the wish to bring you back because Paris needs her Ladybug." 

"Can we have our Mirculaus back?" Nino was numb, he needed Wayz back and looking at Mari she felt the same. 

"Oh yes!" Alya handed them back their jewelry. 

It was the first time they'd both looked down, Nino was back in the clothes he'd turn to rags years ago. And what made him the saddest was the loss of their wedding rings, he'd worked so hard on them and they were gone. So were the many beautiful clothes Mari had made. His old clothes didn't feel right. Would that fade in time? With his bracelet back on, it was like Wayz saw everything that had happened to him, in the last "several hours". Wayz gave his young holder a hug. Tiki did the same. At least they had someone else to talk to. Master Fu gave them a look as if he understood too. 

"Look, I'd love to hear more of this story, later, but right now I want my mom, this whole thing has been a lot, can we go home?" Mari looked up at Adrien, Nino fought the urge to go and hold her, he was Alya's boyfriend again, not Mari's husband. 

"That's actually wise, we told your parents Adrien had managed to get permission for a sleepover, so going home is wise and you two probably need some space, so let's get together on Sunday?" Alya smiled and took Nino's hand, "Let me walk you home?" He could only nod.
