As soon as cat noir had transformed back in his room Plagg made his way to the fridge and ate his camembert. Not a word was spoken. Plagg had made it clear the moment he opened the box that Adrien wasn't worthy of his miraculous. They had not gotten off to a good start. 

Now that Adrien was not in a hurry he could finally take the time to process everything. This morning he had tried to sneak into school. He had always wanted to go to school since his mother's death but his father never allowed that. Today he had felt unusually determined and hence had tried to go to school. He had even succeeded and made it to school when an old man fell down. Adrien being the kind guy he was immediately went to help him. 

He was able to help the man but those precious minutes he lost helped Nathalie and Gorilla catch up with him. He felt really upset. Nathalie had understood and exempted him from his daily lessons. He had then locked himself up in his room and played his piano. It was then that he had seen the box.

He was curious and opened the box causing a blinding flash of green light to appear. That was Plagg and the first thing he had done was examine the room. Adrien just stood there shocked until Plagg turned to him and spoke, "You must be my holder. Frankly I am disappointed with the guardian. I mean you're a model and models are spoilt brats." The last line finally shook him out of his reverie  and he said , "I am not a spoilt brat! Anyways are you a genie?" "I met him once. So he grants wishes. Big deal! I'm way more personable! Anyways I'm hungry, now do you have anything to eat?"  Asked an impatient Plagg.  He nodded his head when suddenly a huge bang was heard. Plagg immediately got serious, gave him a few hurried instructions and then told him to transform. 

That was how it all started. He felt free for the first time ever and way more confident. He loved being Cat Noir. True, Plagg wasn't really good company but it was worth it just to be free for sometime.

He was shaken out of these thoughts when his kwami ordered him to switch on the tv, which he did. On the tv was Nadia Shamack who was describing the balls of crumpled paper lying around. He asked Plagg, "Why is this happening?"  "It's because Ladybug did not purify the amok, so if the person whose emotions created the amok gets mad or sad again. They'd start moving. For now we can't do anything." Said Plagg. "Ok then, i'd better get to school."  After saying this he took his bag and went to school. 

When he was passing through the park, Plagg came out of his shirt and asked,"Why would a spoilt model like you want to go to school?"  "First of all I am not a spoilt brat. I have always wanted to attend school like other kids. Now get inside before someone sees you."

Plagg knew he was right and obeyed. Adrien kept on running until he reached the school building.

He had just reached the steps when his car arrived, Nathalie stepped out and told him not to do this. He looked at Nathalie with pleading eyes. She finally let out a sigh and told the gorilla to take her back to the Agreste mansion. 

Adrien happily ran into the school and was greeted by his childhood best friend, Chloé. "Adrikins, you came." She shrieked gleefully and hugged him. He gently pushed her off him and told her to take him to his class. She agreed, on the way students asked him for autographs. He normally hated giving autographs but today he was in a good mood so he gave his fans autographs.

Once inside the classroom Chloé motioned to the first bench where a tan skinned  boy was sitting and said, " I saved this seat in front of me just for you."  "Thanks Chloé." After thanking her he sat there and turned to the tan skinned boy.

"Hi, I'm Adrien." After saying this he extended his hand. Nino did not take it and just said, "You're friends with Chloé, huh?"  Poor cinnamon roll was befuddled. He had never seen Chloé’s bad side. Luckily for him he got the opportunity to see that side today.
