He Saved Me

Chapter Fourteen

"What am I going to do?" Adrien repeated multiple times in panic as he sat at the top of the Eiffel Tower, digging through his brain to come up with a solution.

"Calm down, we'll think of something", Plagg reassured.

"No, I can't calm down! I failed at protecting her. Look where she is, she's in the hands of Hawkmoth directly and I'm sitting here at the top of Paris racking any solution possible when I don't have much time to come up with a solid plan. This was my worst fear from this whole situation, and I'm living through it. I believed it when I told myself it wouldn't happen, but I shouldn't of been so naive. I should've had a plan", Adrien stressed.

"Stop, you didn't know", Plagg sat on his shoulder.

"Why are you defending me? I was so stupid", Adrien ran a stressed hand through his hair. "And it doesn't help that Ladybug isn't picking up and has no idea what's going on."

Plagg lifted from Adrien's shoulders. "I just wish we knew where the miracle box was. We could use the help."

Adrien's eyes widened and turned to Plagg, an idea striking his mind. "The miracle box, you're right. Plagg, you know who Ladybug is, right?"

"Yeah, but I'm not telling you", Plagg sassed.

Adrien let out a small laugh. "No, no, that's not what I'm asking. Since you know who she is, you can find her for me. She's the miraculous holder so she'll have the miracle box. And, you can tell her while your at it to get her ass over here."

"I'll see", Plagg faked a smile, knowing she couldn't, in fact, get her ass over here.

Plagg flew away from Adrien, down the Eiffel Tower, and back to where Marinette was. He went through the walls of the building and hid where Hawkmoth couldnt see him. Luckily, Hawkmoth wasn't paying attention, so Plagg took his chance.

"Marinette", Plagg whispered.

Marinette gasped and took a quick glance at Hawkmoth before speaking. "What are you doing here? Where's Chat Noir?"

"Well, about that. He needs the miracle box", Plagg sighed. "And Ladybug."

"I can't! I'm trapped here!" Marinette whisper-shouted.

"Well, duh!" Plagg rolled his eyes. "I just need to know where the miracle box is."

Marinette thought for a moment. "It's in my room, in a drawer. The key is on the shelf. But", Marinette paused. "Be careful, please. Guard it with your life and also be wise about who you choose to help you."

Plagg let out a silent laugh. "I don't think we're gonna need anyone else."

Marinette mouthed "what?" when Plagg starting flying out backwards, his eyes planted on Marinette's with a grin.

"Here it is", Plagg set it down on Adrien's desk when he got back. "So, what are you planning on doing with this exactly?"

"Putting on all miraculouses, duh", Adrien began grabbing the jewelry from the box.

"Wait, you're planning on using all of them? I thought you were only using mine and another", Plagg flew in front of his face to block the view of the miracle box.

"No, I'm using all of them. I need all the help I can get", Adrien gently pushed Plagg out of the way.

"If you need help, why don't you ask - I don't know - other people to help you?" Plagg suggested, clearly disagreeing with Adrien on the current situation. 

"I don't know who the miraculous holders were."

"I can tell you", Plagg shrugged.

Adrien stopped fiddling with the box. "That would go against Ladybug. Plus, she's not picking up and I don't know what else to do."
