Trailer playing dramatic music in background. "She's scared of demons, but powerless without this Dark Knight and this beautiful Winged Maiden."
"Huh?! That is so not true! I'm not scared of demons!"
Marinette gets annoyed watching a trailer for a new animated movie about Dragon-Phoenix and Sapphire, though she gets annoyed when the trailer says that she's afraid of Dragon-Phoenix.
'Sapphire and Dragon-Phoenix; two heroes with Cat Noir and Ladybug, the four facing their destiny. Coming soon to theaters.' The director of the movie, Thomas Astruc, announces. "The real foursome won't be able to make it to tonight's premiere, but I hope that they'll love my movie as much as we love them."
"Meh, I'll be the judge of that." Marinette huffs.
"You turned down an invitation to the premiere?" Tikki asked.
"I'm a superhero, Tikki, not a star. It's my job to protect the city, not sit around at a movie premiere."
"Well said, Marinette."
Nadja: "The premiere will be attended by many illustrious guests including the rockstar Jagged Stone, the famous fashion designer Gabriel Agreste, and his two teen idoled sons who voiced Cat Noir and Sapphire, Vanitas and Adrien Agreste."
Marinette gasps, instantly regrets turning down the invitation. " Adrien?! Adrien's gonna be there? Oh no! Ladybug so should have said yes!"
Tikki giggles
A little while later, your parents are discussing how much food they have to make for the big premiere.
"So we've got six hundred macarons plus eight hundred petit fours not to mention the Sapphire, Dragon-Phoenix, Ladybug and Cat Noir tiered cakes." Tom reads out the list to your mom.
"We should have hired someone to help us serve all these guests at the premiere." Sabine mentions.
"Do you mean the premiere for the Four Heroes animated movie?" You chimed in.
"Yes." Your dad nodded.
Marinette gasps and drops the plates in excitement. "Me, me, me! I can totally help you out with that!"
"You mean, as a server?" Tom hesitantly asks, swiftly catching plates from falling onto the floor that she had dropped.
"Yes! I'll hand the macarons out to Adrien. I mean..." Marinette drops plates and knocks over fruit bowl before managing to balance the bowl on top of the plates with a banana and two oranges. " ...to everybody, of course. Not just Adrien 'cause Adrien's not the only one who likes macarons."
"And the fact that Adrien is going to be there has nothing with it, of course." Sabine raised a brow.
"Not a thing!" Marinette lies straight through her teeth. "Like, not in the slightest! I just want to help out my wonderful sweet parents who I love so much!" she drops the plates that her father handed back to her, shattering them on the floor.
Tom and Sabine look at each other warily then to you who had a look of a frown not mentioning that you were left out of who she loves.
However, upon noticing how upset Marinette is over this, dejectedly. "You guys don't trust me. Then again, I'm such a klutz. Even I wouldn't trust me."
"Of course you're not a klutz, my darling. You're hired. We'll just—"
Marinette hugs him. "Oh, thank you! You're the best parents in the world!" she dances out of the room while singing, and crashes into something.
