My One And Only - A Daminette Story

Chapter 19

'I do not want to find out'
————————————————————

They were in class when it happened. Miss Bustier had just began to teach about the French Revolution when an Akuma Alert sounded out. The vermillion-haired teacher had ushered the students into a back room of the school, not noticing five teenagers sneak off. Adrien was with both Alya and Marinette, looking for a place to transform, Chloe had gone somewhere else for the exact same reason and Nino had gone off in search of his girlfriend.

Alya and Adrien had transformed into their hero personas first while Marinette was rummaging through her purse, looking for the macaron she had made not too long ago.

After two full nights of moonlight, the potion was ready. Physically, it hadn't changed much other than the odd sparkly fleck that would appear at certain angles but magically, it had changed exponentially. The bluenette nearly choked at the amount of power that it emitted, it was ready to use.

"Tikki! Can't you just feel the power radiating from this?" Marinette gushed to the red kwami who appeared not long after the bluenette had gone back down to her room.

Once close enough the kwami gasped, circling the vial while making a noise of pure admiration. "Wow... this is... it's so powerful! You did amazing Marinette!"

Marinette giggled at Tikki's speechlessness before quickly thanking the kwami and going down to the bakery. She needed to make something with the potion and she wanted to try a new macaron recipe. Why not kill two birds with one stone? (Don't tell Robin)

Pulling the tray out of the oven, there were a few silver macarons baked perfectly on the flat piece of metal. She waited for them to cool before handling them, putting them into a separate box for her to use later.

"Now when Hawkmoth attacks, we'll be ready. Right Tikki?"

"We will Marinette!"

She scrambled to get the box out of her purse. Once it was securely in her hand, she opened the paper packaging, taking one of the delicate silver macarons inside. The radiation of power had not faded, in fact, it almost seemed to have gotten stronger.

When she gave it to Tikki, the kwami did glow while spinning but Tikki didn't have a new name. In fact, her appearance had barely changed. The only thing different was the silver specks that appeared on her head and trailed down her tiny arms. Marinette then transformed, her suit was more or less the same except for the silver accents. The ribbons in her hair had also changed, it faded to a metallic silver colour and there were specks of metallic cloud sprinkled in her hair, her mask was also adorned with these additions. What really changed, though, was the amount of power the suit gave her. She could feel it pulsing through her veins, the adrenaline rush was exhilarating. She felt lighter on her feet, as if she could jump as high as she wish. Her yo-yo had a redesign as well, an iridescent crescent moon was visible on one side and the string had a black holographic effect if under the correct lighting.

"Damn Girl! You look fierce!" Rena Rouge complimented the spotted heroine, Chieneux nodded to the fox's statement.

"So are you Moon Bug now or Lady Luna?" Chieneux suggested.

The heroine was thoughtful for a moment. "I'll go as Lady Luna but I really don't mind. Come on, we've got a battle to win"

The akuma was called 'Imprétique' and like it's name, it was erratic and unpredictable, making it increasingly difficult for the heroes to find the akumatized object. Though many attempts were made to get close enough to get a good look, the Akuma's moves were unforeseeable and they moved with great speed. Having no other option, Lady Luna called on her Lucky Charm.
