"If we are to work together remember this, we are not acquaintances do you understand" Adrien breathes out while he releases his hold on her chin
"Perfectly" Marinette grits her teeth
20 years ago King Gabriel and his forces attack Myrllis for the...
A/N : Uh heyyyyyy remember when I disappreared for a while? Yeah good times right?
warning : slight gore and anxiety attacks
Marinette sat idly at her desk constantly tapping the nip of her quill
Her report staring back at her as attempts of forming proper terms and appropriate wording seep into her brain.
Report: absolutely nothing happened today
Marinette got off her chair and left the office. She took left and right turns and stairs to reach the stables where her Best buddy of a chum/ childhood brother/platonic soulmateTM was.
Nathaniel Kurtzberg
Her lips were pulled upwards as the redhead was in a staring contest with a horse.
She slowed down and got as quiet as possible
Closer and closer until she was right behind him
"Boo"
He coiled his head back and jumped with his eyebrows widen
"WHAT THE FU-oh hi Mar"
She chuckled and spoke
"Has fate changed? Has the once scared-of-everything-Nathy finally become unfazed?"
His tone dry as he responded
"Haha very funny maybe Mari-I mean Aelin Galathynius"
She rolled out her eyes and watched the redhead smoother his uniform and closed the horse gate
"So... got anything?"
Many nights of spending time in the library and sneaking in offices and archives left her sleep and information deprived.
"No, nothing so far" she signed and looked at the view splayed at her.
The old gray walls around her in the courtyard. The walls or cages where she spent plotting her revenge to the high and mighty who claim to perform for the greater good. The dark stone walls faded to crimson.
She found herself smaller, innocent and weak as she kneeled down among the debris and corpses. The flames around her danced in a way where it was just her and māma.
The shouts, screams and laughter were everywhere.
She looks for Mama only to find-
So much blood as red as her qipao. Mama's beautiful red and pink hanfu with white cranes embedded on the top were stained in dirt crumpled and the metallic liquid blended well. Maybe redder than roses as she holds her mama in her own pool of blood where she lays in. Those dying eyes are wide and the whites are like snow as the light and life dies. Cradling and wailing Mama to wake up-
She shut her eyes tight and took deep breaths and got the image out of her head. Her eyes water and lips tremble as she wraps her arms around herself tightly to ground herself back. Her grip was so tight she felt she could figuratively snap like twigs. She takes deep quick breaths to even it out. The bile rising in her throat simmered down and the uneasiness in her abdomen faded away. She blocks the world around her and listens to the sound of her inhaling and exhaling.
Its okay you're safe he's not here everything is okay you are fine you are not alone Nathaniel is with you
Nathaniel
The boy was with her in every step. He saw her break and rebuilt herself. The times they would play together in their hideout base with other refugee children
It will and won't never be the same without him
She loves him. A lot. She would never forgive herself if something happened to him. The bond between a brother and sister is something no one can really have. Some siblings may have a fallout and never see each other again. They cling to each other.
Because we are scared to let go of the other
She opens her eyes to see the red head staring at her. He gives an understanding look and nods. She signs at him to get a move on.
Her ears pick up taps to see a young cadet jogging towards her then hands her a scroll and stands in position. She unfolds it and stares at the content
General Galathynius
The mission to investigate and retrieve the stolen fox miraculous has been granted by His Majesty.
You shall recruit a team and report to the throne room tomorrow and will leave in two days at dusk.
His Majesty
Gabriel Agreste
She rereads it and it hits her completely
She has permission
She looks at Nathaniel and smiles with glee and he exchanges it with his own. MArinette turns back to the cadet and orders him to return to his post.
"Lets fucking go!" exclaimed the redhead as they both celebrated.
Meanwhile up in the balconies a blonde with green eyes fixates on the sight below him as his subordinates were unaware.
The man stares linger a bit on the blue haired and then his lips curl upwards as a plan formulates in his head.
