Friend or Enemy? - A Miraculous Ladybug Fanfic

Chapter 3: Ladybug

"Talk to me Chat", said Ladybug into her yo-yo. It was night and she had gotten a frantic, confused message from him a few moments before.

Well, there's a Pigeon situation, but someone else is taking care of it, came the answer.

"What do you mean, 'someone else is taking care of it'?"

I think you need to see. I'm in the park.

"On my way"

When Ladybug found Chat Noir, he was on a building overlooking the park watching something intently. He wordlessly pointed toward a scuffle below between Mr. Pigeon and someone she had never seen before.

The newcomer appeared to be a girl about their age dressed in a light gray bodysuit with a white front and a shaggy tail hanging off the back. She had a gray hair in a messy bun with two pointed gray ears sticking out. Her mask faded from white in the middle to gray on the outside. She had a bow in her hand, and a quiver of arrows on her back.

"What is going on?" Ladybug asked.

"Well, when I arrived I found this girl fighting Pigeon, and I decided to just see how things went without me", answered Chat Noir.

"Any guesses as to what animal her miraculous is?"

"Are you sure she has a miraculous? I suppose her suit would suggest it, but do we know that there are more out there?"

The pair watched the girl flip gracefully to dodge a pigeon and shoot an arrow at Mr. Pigeon, which he narrowly avoided.

"I think she does have one", said Ladybug finally, "but what animal?"

"I was thinking dog maybe, but we already have a dog miraculous."

As they were watching the girl grabbed a silver arrow from her quiver and shot it into the air yelling, "Pack power!". The silver arrow split into pieces and shot ten animals around the girl, turning them into large gray dogs that formed a group around her.

"Wolf", Chat whispered. Ladybug nodded her head solemnly, this girl had a powerful miraculous.

The snarling wolf pack surrounded Mr. Pigeon as the girl shot two arrows pinning him to a tree by his suit.

The girl then said, "Lone wolf!", and the wolves turned back into their previous squirrels, crows, and pigeons. Then, slinging the bow on her back, she took Mr. Pigeon's whistle off his neck and, looking directly at Ladybug, said, "You can come down now, I have something for you."

"Just be cool", whispered Ladybug.

"Like I'm ever not!", Chat whispered back.

The two superheroes made their way down towards the mysterious girl. As they got closer Ladybug could see the girl better, she had gray eyes that Ladybug could've sworn she'd seen before. When they reached her the girl handed Ladybug the whistle, she broke it and then did her thing. The girl tapped the bottom of her quiver and all the arrows disappeared and then reappeared in the quiver.

The girl offered her hand saying, "I'm Fang, you must be Ladybug."

"That's right", said Ladybug taking it.

"And you must be Chat Noir."

Chat Noir scowled at the hand she offered and said accusingly, "How do you know who we are?"

"Well", she said with a laugh, "You are celebrities."

"We are glad to meet you Fang", said Ladybug with a glare at Chat Noir, "Welcome to the tea-"

"May I converse with you for a moment my lady? In private?"

"Please excuse us for a moment."

Ladybug followed Chat Noir behind a building. "What's up?" she asked

" 'What's up?', do you seriously not know?"

"I'm afraid not."

"Don't you remember Lila? You are seriously going to let this stranger onto our team, no questions asked? Do I have to be the smart one this time?"

Sigh "Chat, last time you got mad at me for being too close minded, I was just trying to be less of a jerk." She looked down embarrassed.

"I'm sorry I was an airhead, but that's no reason for you to let your guard down!"

"Well I think you're being a jerk, and that you should let your guard down a little more!"

"I'm sorry, that came out much more aggressive than I wanted it to. Can we compromise? How about we work with this Fang but still watch our backs?"

"OK I guess that works, but you need to not be a total jerk."

"Deal."

"Hey guys?", came Fang's voice from around the corner, "I'm about to transform back, could you hurry your consultation up?"

Ladybug and Chat emerged from behind the building. "Welcome to the team!" said Ladybug, "Forgive us if we are a little mistrustful for a while."

The girl nodded in understanding and rushed away.

Ladybug yawned and looked at her yo-yo for the time. It was 2:07.

"Shoot I need to get to bed, I have tryou-, I have something tomorrow. Catch ya later Chat!"

"Bye Princess."

P.s. sorry for the cover picture error, Fang doesn't have a mask (and she also looks like a seven year-old)
