Where did you go?

29~ It's you

A/N: For the best experience while reading this chapter, I recommend playing the song, "As the world caves in" by Matt Maltese on repeat.

(Adrien's POV)

I can't move because of how hard this robot is squishing me, I feel like my ribs are getting crushed. It hurts so bad.

What hurts, even more, is seeing Ladybug right now. I can tell that she's in full panic mode. She's frantically squirming and trying to get out of the grasp, but it's no use.

(Marinette's POV)

This robot is gripping Cat Noir and me so hard, I can't help but panic for a second while the robot continues stomping through Paris, ruining some of its perfect buildings.

I can't do anything. I can't move. My lucky charm is not working.

I look over to see Cat Noir and he looks pale because of how hard this thing is grabbing us. He looks tired, poor kitty.

"Let us go!", I yell.

Robostus ignores me and continues walking. Where is he taking us? To Hawkmoth? Does this mean that we'll finally figure out who he is?

The large robot finally slows down and stops in front of the Agreste mansion.

What?

I look over to Cat Noir but he just has a blank expression on his face.

While still carrying us in the very tight grip, the robot crushes the gate and kicks open the window leading to Gabriel Agreste's office.

"W-What are we doing here?", Cat Noir yells.

"What do you think", the robot says while crushing the large house to get inside of the office. It doesn't take him long since the roof of the office is high.

He said that he was taking us to Hawkmoth but we're at the Agreste's mansion... does that mean?...

Robostus steps inside of the room and jumps down with a lot of force, making the floor collapse, making the robot fall about 2 stories down into a basement. Since we're in the robot's hands, we fall with it and take the impact of the fall.

I feel so dizzy.

The robot starts to get up back into it's feet again and I take a look around to look at the giant basement. The vibe of the room feels dark and there's something off about it. Far in the corner I see a little patch of grass... and what looks like... a coffin?

I make a weird face and look over to Cat Noir, who at this point, is frantically squirming. He looks almost... traumatized. I gave up already. I don't have enough strength to move anymore.

"Where are you Hawkmoth?", Robostus yells.

We hear noise behind us and he turns around. We see Hawkmoth in the flesh, right there.

"Robostus, what are you doing?", he demands.

"You wanted the miraculous, so I brought them to you!", he says back.

(Adrien's POV)

I don't know what to do.

Why is Hawkmoth in this house?

Was I really that blind for so long?

Could it have been my own father?

Why do things like this always have to happen to me?
