     MARINETTE's alarm clock blared loudly, awaking her from her slumber. She groans, reluctantly turning it off.

Great. It's already 11am, I missed like half the day already.

"Tikki?" Marinette called her kwami sleepily, and she zipped right up to her.

"Morning Marinette!" Tikki greeted the girl cheerfully.

"Morning," she finally replied to her as she got out of bed, heading for her closet.

She had a short shift today, she needed to get the materials for the dress after, then get some things ready so Chat can come over.

Okay, easy enough.

She pulled out some basic black pants, a pink crew-neck top and a denim jacket, placing them on her bed.

Marinette left the house with a small paper in her hands, here which stated the fabrics she needed for the dress, as well as the length of the fabric and other little details like lace and such. She repeated the things she needed under her breath, so she didn't forget anything even though she had a list right in her hands.

"Marinette, there's no need to worry, you're just buying fabric," Tikki peered through the girl's purse.

"Yes, I know that, I just don't want to mess up, I'm not taking any chances!"

   Coming out of the store with a paper bag of fabric and a satisfied smile on her face, Marinette walked home.

"See, I told you everything will be fine!"

The girl chuckled. "I guess I can relax a bit before I start."

She planned on arranging her workspace before he came so she could get sewing straight away.

She walked upstairs, placing the bag of fabrics by her sewing machine. Just as she let out a sigh, a gigantic roll of thread crashed into her room, destroying half of it. On the other half, Marinette sputtered.

"What in the world was that?!" she coughed, standing up.

"Tikki, spots on!" she called, transforming into her alter-ego, Ladybug.

Ladybug zipped out of the destroyed room and onto the rooftops on Paris. Spinning her yoyo for momentum, she scanned the streets, trying to locate the Akumatized citizen.

"Meow M'lady, someone seems focused."

She didn't need to turn around to know it was Chat Noir, the constantly-punning hero.

"Have you seen the villain yet?" she asked as she stopped spinning her yoyo.

"Yeah, saw a glimpse of her around this area, don't know where she is now though."

"Let's take quick round here, see if--" Ladybug said before being cut off.

"Ladybug! Chat Noir! There you are! Your costumes look like they need some alterations, how about you hand your Miraculouses over so I can check them out?" the villain sneered, throwing a gigantic needle the heroes' way.
