Had Marinette ever made effort to find out about Jinni or Jason. No. She was too afraid to.
Had she been aware that Jay'd been adopted by billionaire Bruce Wayne or that Jinni'd been adopted by Talia Al Ghul. No. Never enough time.
No relatives to live with. Willis Todd, a deadbeat criminal murdered by his boss because his loyalties had come questionable. And Catherine Todd, a drug addicted coward who didn't stand up for her kids when Willis beat them. She died few months later from an overdose.
And as she sat in class thinking about those three questions, and how she could have answered, Mlle Bustier entered.
"Good news Class! We've been chosen to go on a class trip to........."
Mari fidgeted with her hair. She'd been shaky all morning, and today just wan't hitting it with her.
"Gotham City!"
Mari froze in her seat. She caught eye with Chloe and the rest of the Mari Protection Squad or MPS. And she smacked her head on the desk, her eyes wide. She left it there, still frozen.
The MPS and Chloe just stared ahead. They didn't want to interfere. But of course, the liar herself, just had to step in.
"Oh my god, Mari are you okay?" Lila asked.
"Yeah...." Mari said shakingly.
"Girl you have a heart of gold, if you're worrying about Mari-trash!" Alya exclaimed
"Alya." Mari spoke. "If you're trying to make me feel better by calling me Mari-trash, you've another thing your way. Plus, I only let my closest of friends call me Mari. So do us all a favor and call me Marinette!"
Alya laughed. "Oh quiet Mari. We could still be hanging out together if you didn't bully Lila."
"I said. Don't call me. Mari." Mari snapped coldly. "And if you ever let me hear you calling me Mari again, you might not see daylight again."
Alya paled quickly, she raised her hand to her throat, now shaking. "Y..you wouldn't."
"Oh yes I would."
