Miraculous: The Next Guardian (Book 2)

Truth revealed

It's not every day Paris had a rest from Shadow moth. He kept sending from Akumatized villains to Sentimonsters. The swarm of Ladybugs just repaired the destroyed Eiffel Tower. Chat and Ladybug met up after the job is done.

"Pound it."

"Good job m'lady, you figured out your lucky charm pretty quickly." Chat complimented.

"If finding out my charm quickly means skipping the first period then I'm out, see you later Chat." She said before heading to school. Chat bid her farewell.

"I skipped the first period too, what a coincidence." He also headed for school."

Lunch break.

Marinette and Alya were sitting at a table eating lunch. They discussed several topics while eating. Alya's phone beeped. She opened and found Nadja Chamack. She was talking about a lollipop Sentimonster destroying buildings. Marinette had to make a quick excuse.

"Oh no, I must have forgotten my notebook in class, I will go get it, keep eating." And with that, she bolted out of the cafeteria leaving confused Alya.

"What notebook? You weren't even in the first period and slept the second."

Another swarm of Ladybug fixed the damage done by another Sentimonster, indicating the victory of our two heroes.

"Oh no, I just missed another period. Maybe I will just go home." Said Ladybug sadly.

"Hey, don't be hard on yourself,  you're the guardian, and Shadow moth has become more powerful," He could see it in her eyes. The sadness, the big responsibility, the tiredness, She had a big weight on her shoulders, but she doesn't have to carry it alone.

"It's ok Chat," But that wasn't enough for him. "I can manage all of this."

"You sure you don't want some help?" Asked Chat, concerned about her.

"No, it's fine. See you later kitty." With that, she took off using her yoyo. Chat watched her leave, sad that he couldn't be more helpful to her. But what could he do? Take the box for three days a week? He trusts Ladybug as much as Fu did, and even more.

Adrien just finished an interview with some reporters. He walked into his room and sat on the couch.

"Man, your lovers can't get enough of you, can they?" Plagg commented. Flying out of Adrien's shirt to get some cheese.

Adrien chuckled at his comment as he remembered what happened earlier this morning. His father ordered him not to go to school. He had an important photo shoot. Which took about two hours. Adrien did everything he could in this shoot. He was just glad Lila wasn't there. Then he had this interview after he finished. One reporter kept asking questions. And when Adrien was about to leave, he kept holding onto Adrien not wanting him to leave. Adrien opened the TV and saw the lollipop Sentimonster. Plagg flew up to him.

"Can't we have a break?" Plagg said. He watched Adrien grab his phone and play a piano song. He put the phone on the piano and turned to plagg.

"No time for rest, duty calls. Plagg claws out!" Chat opened his window and jumped into the streets.

Felix was walking with his phone in hand. He looked down the stairs and saw Gabriel, looking right then left. Then he walked into his office and closed the door. What are you hiding, uncle?

Felix wanted to spend some time with his cousin. But an interesting thing happened which caused him to be distracted while going to Adrien's room. The lollipop Sentimonster. He reached Adrien's bedroom. He heard the piano being played so he assumed it was Adrien practising. He knocked then opened the door. Adrien wasn't there. Guess uncle is not the only one keeping secrets, but don't worry Adrien, your secret is not my concern.
