Miraculous Fanfiction Season 5 - The Last Day

The Kwamis Choice 3

Ladybug and Cat Noir entered the penthouse in London, still in their cosmic suits. Amelie had kindly let them in. Ladybug looked around in surprise. Large panoramic windows, a white grand piano, marble floor. 

"No... unfortunately not. My son wasn't home when I woke up this morning... that was around nine," Amelie explained worriedly. "He hasn't been home for the last few days, but I thought he was with Adrien or other friends," Amelie said, running her hand through her blonde hair. "I've been worried ever since because he said he wanted to visit his uncle and cousin Adrien. The two are inseparable, you know," she added. Adrien felt uneasy at these words - hadn't Felix come home? That was strange. And had he really not been so stupid to him? "But Felix hasn't come back yet and isn't responding to my calls," she showed her cell phone. Ladybug nodded thoughtfully. 

"Have you tried to reach Gabriel Agrest?" she suggested. Amelie nodded. "He just said he hadn't seen him," Amelie replied, shivering. "But he was in Paris, I'm sure of that, I spoke to him," Ladybug noted. "Oh, Ladybug, Cat Noir, I hope nothing happened to him," the woman whispered worriedly. Ladybug and Cat Noir exchanged a glance. "Don't worry, stay calm. He'll definitely show up at his uncle's in Paris," Ladybug tried to reassure the lady. "Or... he's already on his way back to London," said Chat. "Thank you for the support you're giving me," Amelie thanked her. The large wall clock ticked in the background. Ladybug and Cat Noir floated back as the moon made the clouds shimmer. "What if we're wrong about Felix?" said Astro Cat uncertainly. "You mean he could also be a victim of Ultimoth?" Ladybug looked skeptical. 

Was Felix really a victim in this game? "I'm not sure," grumbled Cat Noir. "He was our last hope of getting some clue," hissed Ladybug. "Let's try to look for more clues. Ultimoth won't stop attacking us and we'll find out what happened to Felix," he encouraged her. "Then we have to be even more careful," she added with a smile. 

"Let's fly back. It's been a long week," she said. At home, Marinette transformed back. It was still so quiet. Marinette sighed. She would never get used to it. She put away the sewing box where the box had been hidden. "Maybe you should call Alya," suggested Tikki. "That's a good idea," said Marinette and dialed her friend. "Do you want to come over?"

Adrien jumped back through the window and transformed back. He let his gaze wander around the room. The basketball... "Do you remember when we pretended to be each other as children?" he could still hear Felix's voice. "We'll do it again," Felix had suggested. "After all, you can never say no to your father," he had said. Adrien angrily threw the ball away. "I should never have let Felix influence me like that. I should have listened to Marinette," he stomped angrily through the room. 

"Why don't you tell him you don't want to do it?" Marinette had asked. She had looked so loving and understanding. Adrien walked determinedly through the house and strutted into the room without knocking. His father was busy painting some kind of ring. "Father, I have to discuss an important matter with you...but...but I don't know how," Adrien confessed seriously. "Please tell me quickly, I'm very busy right now...but I'm all ears," Gabriel replied thoughtfully. 

"I...I...I don't want to be a model anymore!" Adrien said angrily and looked at his father. "Well, if that's what you want...of course," Gabriel said and paused briefly at the drawing. Adrien looked at his father in astonishment. Had he really just agreed with him? Had his father said yes? Without getting angry? "Anything else, Adrien?" he asked. He smiled briefly. 

"No...that's it," overwhelmed, he closed the door and went back to his room. What had made his father change his mind? As he was changing, he didn't notice Felix's small magnifying glass falling out of his trouser pocket and rolling under the bed. He still hadn't figured out what it was all about. But now his thoughts were somewhere else entirely.
