ꕤ Thursday ꕤ

𝓘 don't know how many times Viperion has gone back but... at the very least—I'm updated on what to do. I decide to go into an alley way and de-transform. "TIKI—SPOTS OFF!"

Tiki comes out and I hand her a macaroon. I kept looking side by side to see if there's anything chasing me. Luckily, over here it's just garbage in the dark. But . . . I hear distant screams as a woman runs down the street away from iPhone-chargers that took a giant form like a snake trying to strangle her! I already just de-transformed, but I figured... I had to go save her.

I ran out there and distracted it. "Hey you slippery snake! What do you think you're doing? Shouldn't you be plugging your charge somewhere else?" The chargers face my direction and an electrical surge re-surfaces their attention to me. Good, this is just what I want. Tiki peaks up from my purse curious to what happens next, I look down and wink.

The woman stood in shock for a minute but then ran away to hide. I begin running down the streets in hope that the chargers don't get to me first. But at the same time, I'm confident they won't because . . . Alya will know it's me. I keep running towards the park. The more I run the more things I attract, pretty soon . . . anything you can imagine that runs on electricity, came to me. While in the mist of 'running for my life' I try to think of Viperion's plan, I'm sure he knows what he's doing, after all . . . I trust Luka. Even if, that means he can't trust me.

︵‿︵‿︵‿︵︵‿︵‿

My breathe quakes  . . . but I'm finally at the park. I understand that I must do things carefully. Consequently, a drone appears and speak to me, "Well, well, well . . . if it isn't my best-fake-friend-forever~ I'm glad you've finally come to your senses, you know as well as I do right? what're you hiding Marinette-Dupain-Cheng?!" I stare at the drone without a sudden move, my head tilts to see if Viperion's around, but I have no clue. "Alya . . . listen to me... please-" She interrupts . . . "It's Security-Of-Secrets! Gosh—you'd think someone would get it right! but not even the other foolish reporter knows too~"

I look down and look back up gripping my fists, "I understand how you feel . . . but... if you want to know what I'm hiding so badly . . . you have to forget these powers, they're not what you need." Her face appears on the drone, "What are you talking about? thanks to these powers I've got you trapped! I don't need to forget anything~ In fact, once I have the miraculouses I could be able to get all the proof that-I-need from . . . anyone!" I sigh, "No . . . you won't get what you want from me while you're like this, only Hawkmoth is getting what he wants, because I know what you really want . . ." She scoffs, "Go on?" I lift up the ladybug charm, "You want . . . your best-friend's truth, but only I can give that to my best-friend, not a villain."

The screen flickers, I stare at the drone's screen determined, "Please, I'm not asking you to let go of these powers . . . I'm begging for my best-friend to come back to me, so I can tell her . . . what she's been missing." It seems the screen keeps flickering, the sounds that come out after that is disoriented, I begin to sweat to think maybe this wasn't a good idea. Suddenly, I see Viperion on-top of this beeping-bus looking down at me, smiling. It's like a blanket of reinsurance to guide me to whatever happens next. The drone starts shaking, then gliding sideways, I watch as I start to ponder . . . could she be fighting him? is it possible for her to get out of his control?
