It has a happy ending....right? {COMPLETED}

Chapter 6

Shelly used her shelter against the hits that came from the red yo-yo, repeatedly thrashing at the mystically material. She had managed to keep the shelter around her and Ladynoire as they escaped on a stolen motorcycle.

Their plans had been working out perfectly. They managed to deactivate the bank alarm before entering but they were somehow caught escaping by only Misterbug and Fennick, Sting nowhere to be seen. "We're almost there, then you can rest in the van," Ladynoire assured her, panic and fear in her voice. Ladynoire was almost never scared that her plans would fail, and she wasn't going to start now. She was only fearful for Alya's health.

"I-I'm trying," Sweat bullets started to form on Shelly's forehead as her body tensed while trying to keep up her power. "I am really," The way she mixed up her words and her drooping eyelids showed how exhausted she was.

"Drop the shelter!" She demanded, riding faster on the motorcycle.

"No, I got this," She lied. Shelly couldn't let herself give up. She would be weighted with guilt if they got caught.

"I said drop it!" Ladynoire exclaimed. The handles of the motorcycle started to burn her hands, but she still pushed through. As the shelter dropped and Shelly fell onto Ladynoire's back, Ladynoire sped up, seeing a ramp for a construction site.

She sped up more and more and flew across the ramp, waking Shelley up a small bit. She felt the brunette sit up suddenly, only to latch on to her waist as they hit the ground with a thud. The motorcycle lost its balance and as they turned around a sharp corner, the motorcycle slid onto its side, the metal scratching harshly against the pavement and sparks flying from underneath. The motorcycle drifted into an alleyway. Ladynoire, holding Shelly in a princess carry, hit her back on the wall as she watched the two heroes block her main way of escaping.

"It's over, Ladynoire," Misterbug seethed through his teeth. The look of horror in Ladynoire's eyes quickly faded to a mischievous grin as she reached for her staff that was attached to her back.

"Sorry, boys, but I think you're wrong on that one," She winked before extending the stick, vaulting her and Shelly into the air. Misterbug tried to follow them, assuming they would run across the rooftops but they were nowhere to be found.

Marinette released her transformation in an alleyway. The early morning sun trickling in over the horizon. She had pulled an all-nighter and wouldn't be able to sleep until the next night. She sighed, placing Alya to the side gently and taking out her phone. She found the contact titled, 'Chloe' and pressed it, calling her to give an address of where she was.

"Jesus! What happened out there?" Chloe asked, seeing the scratches on Marinette's face and the road burn on her cheek. Kagami quickly slid open the door to the back of the van.

"We almost got caught, but I managed to get us out of there quickly," Marinette explained, hoisting Alya up and began to place her in the van.

"Come on, let's get you home and I'll take care of you," Kagami assured her. As they drove, they watched as Misterbug and Fennick jumped from rooftop to rooftop, not caring if the spaces in between each building were too long for them. Kagami rolled her eyes, she now saw why Marinette seemed to hate them so much.

They always seemed to have pride in the fact that they were heroes that everyone placed on a pedestal, Paris civilians completely relied on them for safety. They seemed so arrogant and cocky whenever they talked to reporters.

When they arrived home, Alya was carried in by Chloe and Kagami while Marinette stumbled from the van, her body completely drained of energy. Her vision was blurry and she had to rest her hand on the brick wall of the entrance. The whole world seemed to be spinning and she felt like she was about to faint.

"Marinette, are you okay?" Kagami asked, placing a damp, warm towel on Alya's forehead as she slept.

"Y-yeah, I'm fine," She answered.

"Come here, you're just tired," Kagami took a hold of her arm, only for her to yank it away as she left for the office where she spent her late nights, well now early mornings.

"No, no, I'm fine, but you need to go get some rest," She smiled before retreating to her desk in the office. Not too long passed when Chloe, who was making an early breakfast in the kitchen, heard a loud sound come from Marinette's office.

She and Kagami rushed in to see Marinette, asleep on the floor. They carried her up the long staircase and into her bed.
