WereChat

Illusion Plan

(Adrien's POV)

Here I am at school, trying to control my feline behavior before anyone suspects me. Plagg stayed hidden in my jacket while I just play it casual. Ladybug knows my identity but I don't know hers. My ring is slightly damaged but I can transform into my alter-ego.

"Utterly ridiculous! A cat creature last night is so utterly ridiculous! Cat Noir is no match for that cat! I bet he's afraid to get clawed!" Chloe hasn't changed at all, especially during our break-up friendship when she got akumatized as Queen Banana just because she wants a movie about herself instead of working as a team.

All because her half-sister got the main part. I walked past her, having enough of her nonsense.

"Hey Adrien, you heard the news of a cat creature last night?" Nino came to me.

"I saw. Impersonating Cat Noir." I said.

"I wish but it seems that Paris has a real Werecat. An akumatized victim?" Nino guessed.

"Not that I know of. Werecats don't even exist until now. And I thought werewolves and vampires are popular than werecats" I said, hiding the truth that I'm the Werecat.

"There are many were-creatures. Like weretigers but they are transformed through rituals or dark magic." Nino said.

"I heard but it's not always popular, Nino. Mostly everyone thinks werewolves are popular. Especially in movies." We head outside since school is over.

"Ladybug and Cat Noir will catch that creature. The news did say that this cat is only interested in fish, not people" Nino said.

"That's good news," I said, knowing that I did not attack anyone last night.

"He better not drink all milk in the superstores." He joked.

"I think he might. Cats like milk, fish, birds, and mice." I laughed.

"Cat Noir will surely challenge that cat creature. Like a catfight" Nino said.

I haven't thought of that. If Shadow Moth gets suspicious of my absence, he'll surely know my secret identity from my Werecat transformation. I gotta tell Ladybug to bring Rena Rouge to create an illusion of Cat Noir.

"If he can. Anyways, I'll see you later. Whatever you do, stay safe at home if that creature comes back tonight" I said, getting in my bodyguard's car.

"Got it, Adrien." Nino waved goodbye.

(Marinette's POV)

Since I know Cat Noir is Adrien, I cannot let Shadow Moth know. I can't tell Alya that too but she is good at knowing how to keep a secret but she knows I have a secret crush on Adrien.

"Marinette. I feel a tingling in me. It's Cat Noir calling" Tiki said.

"Smart thinking, Adrien. He cannot use his phone or the messages will get discovered. Tiki spots on!" I transformed into Ladybug and unlocked my phone bug to see the message he sent me. Such a dream come true to know two boys in one. Agh! Stay focus!

"Meet me at the Eiffel Tower. There's something I have to tell you" I read his message.

I replied by typing "I'll be there."

I head up to my balcony and swung my yo-yo to get from building to building to head up to the Eiffel tower. Adrien was at the top of the tower waiting for me.

It's so hard to call him by his name and alter-ego since he's both.

"Hello. I mean, nice of you to show up, milady" He said, keeping himself in character with his alter-ego.
