Emma's POV:

"Well, what's your plan?" Ladybug asked very directly. I could tell she was irritated but being ladybug gave her the patience to listen.

I started detailing my plan to ladybug and chat noir, hoping that it didn't sound too far-fetched. "So..um, I think me and Louis should fight hawkmoth." The faces of sheer bewilderment were not a surprise for me; I was fully aware of how crazy my plan must sound; especially considering how little ladybug trusts me already. "Please! Let me finish.... I know it sounds like an incredible risky move to entrust me and Louis with your miraculouses when you like us so little but hear me out."

Chat noir looked at ladybug imploringly. She sighed and gestured for me to continue and in return chat's demeanour became more energised and his ears perked up.

"The plan is to let hawkmoth win."

"WHAT!" The two heroes yelled simultaneously; ladybug leading the rebuttal. "No, no, no WAY we are giving you are miraculouses. Let hawkmoth win, have you lost your MIND, EMMA!? How is this even a possibility to you, do you even know why me and chat noir have been fighting for this long? ITS SO HE DOESN'T WIN!"

"I-I k..know he can't win. I mean we let him think he's won so he lowers his guard. Then you and chat can attack him and win, except you wont be ladybug and chat noir, you'll be 'Remus' and 'dauphina'"

"Wait,waitwait, who?" Chat intrigued.

"Your hero names with mine and Louis' miraculous. Mine is a wolf and Louis's is a dolphin. I should've said that earlier."

"I didn't know Louis has a dolphin miraculous, where did he get his from." My mum leaned in, eyes narrowing as she peered at me; arms crossed to her side.

My mum is testing me -she does this all the time at home if she thinks dad is lying about letting me and Louis sneak out-. I ran any answer through my head and came to the conclusion that I had to be honest; or she will never trust me... "I don't know if I should say this but we got our miraculouses from," I paused. WHAT AM I SAYING I CAN'T REVEAL WHO I AM! "Fromaguardian. Yeah, she is very wise and has trained me and louis since we were very young."

"A guardian," she took a long pause to evaluate my answer, making frequent eye contact with chat noir. A mutter under her breath catches my attention "how is that possible?" I understand why she is sceptical, at this point no other guardian should exist other than master Fu but in the future she is the guardian. My mum is the guardian.

"She'sinhiding." I say trying to make the existence of another guardian seem plausible. "Not even Fu knows she's alive. That's why I couldn't say earlier, I wasn't sure I could trust you." Ladybug took in everything I said, albeit with a grain of salt but she was listening, that's a start. "But now this entire plan depends on our trust, so I'll share her existence with you." Making up half-truths to convince her my story was genuine, I rambled on, Ensuring that they payed attention to all of it. "We don't have a set miracle box, almost all of them were given ou- IMEAN destroyed in Master fu's mistake. She handles lost miraculouses, travelling the world and recovering the miraculouses that were created before the order of guardians existed. The ones that they could never get ahold of. Like mine, and Louis's."

Almost as if my words shifted her attitude towards me, her face lit up. "So there's another guardian." Pondering the possibly, taking in everything I've said. "That must be how you figured our identities, you've gotten use to spotting miraculouses in disguise mode because you're missions depend entirely on wether you can spot them."

I hadn't thought of that but I played along. "YesYES EXACTLY! Thatshow w..we figured it out!" The thick atmosphere between us lifted and I could tell that she was more than willing to here me out. "So, do you think we could go through with this plan?"

"Depends on the details." We chucked in sync, not that anything she had said was funny but the irony of our new-found trust coupled with the implication she might not follow my plan anyway was amusing.

"Ok." I sighed a relieved sigh and continued with my plan. It was a fairly straight-forward plan; not much was hard to prepare in advance. I would organise a meeting between hawkmoth, ladybug and chat noir. Or just convince him to turn up somewhere ladybug and chat noir would be waiting. Naturally, he would come prepared and ready for a fight which is why me and Louis will have their miraculouses instead of my parents. If we are not able to defeat him and hawkmoth triumphs, ladybug and chat noir's identities won't be revealed and we have one more chance to attack with them as Remus and dauphina. With this surprise attack the worse things can go is we flee with a few injuries and the loss of the wolf and dolphin miraculous but I can deal with that.

The only part of the plan I kept to myself is the fact that I need to seize hawkmoth's miraculous and keep it for myself. That's what we came here to do and that's my only true goal for our battle, I need it to ensure my siblings are safe. To make them safe again. To save our future. I'm going to tell Alya this part of my plan so I can have some assistant with my true intentions, as much as I would like to believe I could I don't think I could take on hawkmoth, his allies, ladybug and chat noir all at once if they discovered what I was doing so I'm going to beg Alya for her help.

That reminds me, I have to ask Louis for his help. Im sure he will, I mean, its all for our siblings.

"What do you say Louis! You ready to kick some butt and save our siblings!"

He looked at me, apathetically.

"No."
