The Phoenix: An MLB story!

Chapter 1: Marinette

It was a normal day for Paris, at least, it was for Marinette. She had just finished battling Mr. Pigeon for the 73rd time, something that really shouldn't be happening again...

"You know, Tikki, one would think by how many times Mr. Ramier has been Akumatized that we would have built a sanction for his pigeons..." Marinette remarked in annoyance, sitting on her bed looking at the red and black poka-dotted Kwami, named Tikki.

"I don't know Marinette... Maybe you can ask Mr. Bourgeois to make a special spot for them!" Encouraged Tikki, flying up to Marinette's shoulder.

"Maybe..." Marinette mumbled, sitting at her desk, looking through some papers of the Grimoire, trying to figure out the latest thing on these pages. "Hey, Tikki, was there any Phoenix Miraculous? If I translated this right, there should be..."

Tikki fell silent, deep in thought, before slowly nodding her head, "There is a Phoenix Miraculous, which is the Miraculous of Imagination. I'm not allowed to tell much, but there's only been one Holder for it, and they created the entire universe, and Kwamis. This Holder is also the Mage that created the Miraculouses in the first place!" Tikki exclaimed, with a smile.

"And..." Tikki was quiet for a moment, before adding, "It can very much be more powerful then the Ladybug and Cat Miraculouses combined. Which is why it should stay with it's current holder. And why I'm not allowed to say much about that Miraculous."

Marinette looked stunned at what Tikki just said, before blurting out in surprise, "IT'S WHAT?! Y-You mean to tell me that there is something more powerful then the Kwamis of Creation and Destruction?!" She said quickly, stuttering over her words.

Tikki sighed and nodded, "Yes, there is Marinette. It's important that you don't tell anybody, the Holder has been keeping their identity a secret for years, to where us Kwamis don't even know. The only person that can know is the Celestial Guardian, since the Holder trained him."

Marinette was just flabbergasted. A new Miraculous? One that is more powerful then Gimmi? How does that even exist-

"Girl! Guess what~!" Exclaimed Alya, coming into Marinette's room without warning, "The International Popstar Maria is coming to perform in Pais! Can you believe it? I'm hoping I might be able to interview her on the Ladyblog!"

Marinette screamed in surprise, somewhat perching on her chair now like a bird due to Alya's sudden entrance. Which, in turn, caused Alya to laugh at Marinette due to her... "Goofy" tendencies.

"Wait, what did you just say, Alya?" Asked Marinette as she obviously didn't hear Alya's statement through her own screaming.

"Girl, I said the International Superstar Maria is going to be performing in Paris soon! Aaaannnd..." Alya pauses dramatically, pulling something from out of her bag, "I got us tickets! And Nino one. Also, supposedly Adrien is going to be there, since the Agreste's are having a partnership with her." She said matter-of-factly, waving the tickets around, before Marinette snatched them.

"Wha- what! She's coming to Paris? And Adrien is going to there! Aaaahhh!" Screeched Marinette in excitement, obviously having a huge emotional roller-coaster ride in a minute of time. "Wait- Adrien is going to be there?!"

Alya chuckled at her friend, with a smile, "Yes, your love bird is going to be there, and so is his father, honestly I'm surprised he's even attending in-person..."

"Wait- his Father? He's coming?" Complained Marinette, since then she wouldn't be able to get close to Adrien.

"Don't worry, girl! I'm sure you'll figure something out, you do all the time!" Alya encouraged her best friend.

"Yeah, but that's as Ladybug, when I'm Marinette I mess everything up!" Marinette whined, placing her head on the desk, and accidently shifting some papers. To which, being the curious thing she is, Alya picked up on of the papers.

"What's this, Marinette.." Alya asked, tilting her head as she read part of the translated version of the Grimoire.

"Aaahh! Alya, don't read that! Uhh..." Marinette struggled to get the papers from her friend, and ended up face first on the floor.

"Woah! There is a Phoenix Miraculous? And you never told me?" Alya exclaimed, her eyes going wide as she read the paper.

"And that's because the less people that know about that particular Miraculous, the better." Said Tikki, crossing her little arms, flying up to Alya's face, "You can't tell anyone, and by technicalities only the Guardians are supposed to know about it."

"O-Oh..." Said Alya, gently setting the papers down on Marinette's desk, "Sorry, I won't tell anyone." She whispered to Tikki, letting out a nervous laugh.

Tikki just sighed, and went into Marinette's bag to grab a cookie, since she felt a bit hungry.

Marinette and Alya sat in silence, it being an awkward one, before Marinette mustered up the courage to speak.

"So, Alya, you said you got tickets?" Marinette asked, with a smile.
