Mari's POV
After a week, Alya and Lila have been insulting me. Luckily, Chloe has been there to comfort me. I still feel depressed though
Since Alya had broken my trust, I decided to take away the miraculous from her.
And today was the day
Oh, did I mention I was also going to wipe her memory about her knowing that I'm Ladybug?
Don't worry, it's only temporary.
After I'm finish mixing the magic ingredients together, I pour the solution in a bottle.
"Are you sure you want to do this, Marinette?" my faithful kwami asked
"What do you want me to do, Tikki? She may tell Lila about my identity. Then who knows what else would happen?" I countered
"Alright, Marinette," Tikki said
"Okay, I'm ready. Tikki, Spots On!"
I feel the usual wave of magic surround me. I immediately unhook my yoyo and swing into the city.
Alya's POV
I screwed up. Big time. Mari won't trust me ever again," I sigh as I pace around the floor
"Don't worry, Alya. You'll think of something. You always do," Trixx tells me.
I sigh. She's right. I will confess about what Lila had done to me tomorrow when I see Mari.
"How about a mini-patrol, Trixx?" I smile at my kwami
"Sure thing!" Trixx beamed at me
"Trixx, Let's Po-"
"Hold it right there, Alya Cesaire," I heard a voice. (Hey, it rhymed! 🙃🙃🙃)
I look up to see a red-spotted heroine looking at me
"Hello Ladybug. Do you need anything?" I ask. Smooth, Alya. Smooth.
"I believe you have something of mine," Ladybug said
"I'm sorry Ladybug, but I don't understand," I reply.
She gave me the look
Then I realize that she is talking about the miraculous
"N-No, you don't mean-"
"Yes, Alya. I mean the fox miraculous," Ladybug deadpanned
"Okay, Marinette. I know we aren't on good terms as civilians, but you don't need to..."
"Spare me the lecture, Alya. I need an ally I can trust, not a friend who stabs me in the back. And you claimed you were my best friend," Ladybug said coldly
I sigh. She's right, though. I shouldn't have betrayed her.
I take off the miraculous as I see Trixx disappear into it.
"I'm sorry I failed you Ladybug," I said as I slip the miraculous into her hand
"I'm sorry too," Ladybug said as she put the necklace into her yoyo and brought a perfume bottle out.
"Wait, what do you mean you are so-"
Before I can say anything, Ladybug sprays the contents on me. I suddenly lose my balance and faint
Mari's POV
As I detransform, I feel a wave of tears rush over me. All this wouldn't have happened if I was good enough for her. For everyone. For Adrien.
Why does no one like me?
"Marinette, it's okay. Don't cry. You always find a solu-"
"I renounce you temporarily, Tikki," I say as I pulled of the earrings and place them in the miracle box. I felt like I needed to relieve myself of the pain, so I went to the bathroom
***WARNING: SELF-HARM FOLLOWS. PLEASE IF YOU ARE NOT COMFOTABLE WITH SUCH CONTENT, YOU CAN SKIP***
As if greeting me, I saw a clean razor. Immediately, I picked the blade up and started to stroke it on my skin. Immediately I plunge into my frail body. A yelp went through me but came out as a stifle since I didn't want my parents to worry.
I plunge again and again as every word about myself leaves my mouth
"Dumb"
Plunge
"Cheap"
Plunge
"Ugly"
Plunge
"Freak"
Plunge
"Fat"
Plunge
***END OF WARNING ZONE***
After a few minutes, I stop cutting and take a very cold shower, half-hoping to freeze to death. After that, I go back to bed and cry myself to sleep
ShadowMoth's POV
I feel Marinette's emotions as I see the purple glow in my cane reach the second level of of twelve. It won't be long before Marinette will be under my power, and the miraculouses will soon be mine!
Muahahahahahahahahah!
