Hello peeps! Sorry for not uploading. 😅 Check put my new story called "Wish Dragon", it's a very interesting story. Without further ado here is the next chapter!

"Tikki... why was Plagg here?" I asked uneasily. Her face was in a state of shock but that soon turned into panic. "Chat's here isn't he?" Tikki's silence was confirmation enough. My brain tried to process what just happened, if Chat was here then that means he has to be one of my classmates. Unless Plagg traveled all the way here from Paris which was highly unlikely. 

I think I know who he is~~~ 

"Be quiet Moon! I- no... he can't be one of my classmates, but he has to be!!! Argh!!!" I shouted, Tikki looked slightly worried despite trying to hide her reactions. My mind started to wonder, the only boy that had blonde hair w-was... n-no it can't be him! 

"Marinette Plagg came because I sent a magic distress call to him! When you started to act weird I sent a magically telepathy thing." Tikki quickly said nervously. 

"You can do that?!" I asked in disbelief. 

"O-oui" (Tikki can't actually do that lol, she is just lying to throw Marinette off.) 

Lier.

Moon... Tikki would never lie to me. Your just being paranoid, I trust Tikki. (Ouch Mari...) 

~Adrien's Head~

"Now since where alone, what where you yelling about?" The small cat god rubbed his hands together clearly nervous. 

"So... kid you have to listen. This place isn't safe and we need everyone to leave, that is if they value their lives. You know our conversation about ghost?" 

"Yeah... you told me they didn't existed and I was stupid for thinking they did." I replied flatly, remember the hurtful, yet short conversation with the god of destruction. 

"Well... actually ghost do exist." I stared at him in disbelief, "Yeah so... kid I didn't know they existed till now, an-"

"HA!" I interrupted, "Ghost do exist and I was right and you were wrong." I soaked in the glory of being right over the Kwami. He gave me a strange look, was it disappointment?  

"Kid I'm serious. There something happing here that's not right, it's inhuman." Plagg whispered. I didn't know he could whisper. 

"What do you mean inhuman?" 

"I can't tell y'a kid," Plagg replied flatly. 

"Why?! If something is wrong and possibly dangerous, shouldn't I know about it?! Every secret you Kwami's keep from us, the more danger and stress we are in!" I yelled out suddenly. If we knew about the Guardian earlier maybe we could have saved him. Maybe if we knew about the miraculous books and legends we could have discovered the power-ups early. Maybe if I knew M'lady's  identity we could be a stronger team! The hole reason the Guardian lost his memory was because of SECRETS! 

~Marinette's/Moon's Head~

This is so~ STUPID! Just let me take control! I can make all your problems go away! Your dearest friend Tikki has lied to us! Don't believe me? If Tikki always been able to send a 'magical distress beacon' then why has she never done it before? 

Moon your just being paranoid. Tikki has kept secrets from me before, but she doesn't lie. She would never do that to me. Besides Chat Noir can't be in my school, remember when I was Multi-Mouse. He thought my school was a elementary school. He can't be one of my classmates and besides if he was that would mean h-he's... I shuddered. 

You've tried so hard to not figure out his identity, the miraculous can't block you from figuring it out anymore. 

What do you mean by, 'anymore'? 

The magic in the miraculous conceals your identity physically, but it also does it mentally. It stops people from making the connection that your ladybug. The same goes for Chat Noir, but since I have become active again, you are no longer effected by the Miraculous's power. 

How do you know this? 

It's a theory. If this isn't true then all you are very stupid, and I mean VERY stupid. 

That hurts. I'm going with your first theory, but I doubt it's the truth. 

"MARINETTE!" Tikki yelled. 

"Oh dang sorry Tikki. I was talking- I mean thinking." I internally winced at my mishap. Tikki caught on to it as expected. 

"Talking to who?" Tikki whispered. 

"I wasn't t-talking to anyone." 

Your in trouble now~ 

"It's the other you isn't it?" I winced at her remark which was conformation enough for Tikki. She sighed then continued, "How long?" 

"Ever since... Ever since Micheal first found out I was Afton. He must have activated my program through voice command. Just like how my dad did." I spat out the word 'dad' out with as much venom as I could. 

"Voice command?" 

"Yes... I'm Project 59967." (From chapter 4 if you didn't make a the connection lol) 

"Project 59967?" 

"Yes, though only an Afton can activate it and control me." At least I hoped it was where only Afton's can. 

"So you can talk to 'other you' still?" Tikki asked. 

"Yes I can still talk to Moon, but don't worry she isn't gaining control." I reassured Tikki. 

Not yet.
