Behind The Mask (Reader X Catnoir ff)

chapter 12

Pov Adrien:

I felt like I was trapped in a nightmare as I stood face to face with y/n as Hawk Moth ensnared her with his dark machinations. My mind was racing as I tried to find the right words to convince her.

"y/n, you have to be careful," I started, my voice calm but firm. "Hawk Moth will promise you power, but at what cost? The darkness he seeks to drag you into will only distance you further from who you truly are."

y/n looked at me uncertainly, her eyes full of doubt. "What should I do, Adrien? I don't know what to do anymore."

I gently placed my hand on her shoulder. "You are stronger than you think you are, y/n. Please, don't let Hawk Moth seduce you. Stay strong and fight him."

She bit her lip as she thought. "But what if I'm not strong enough? What if I lose myself?"

I looked her straight in the eyes. "You're not alone, y/n. We'll get through this together, no matter what."

There was a moment of silence between us as y/n took in my words. But suddenly I felt the weight of her situation come crashing down on her and she could no longer hold back the tears. "I can't take it anymore, Adrien, it's too much" she whispered desperately. "I'm so overwhelmed. It feels like everything is falling apart and I don't know how to deal with it anymore."

"I'm sorry Adrien but I can't stop it, I just can't do it..." she whispered to me

I put my arms around her comfortingly, but I knew I alone wasn't enough to save her. The darkness had already taken hold of her heart, and I feared I wouldn't be able to get her back in time.

The darkness around y/n began to pulse as an ominous change took place within her. Hawkmoth's voice appeared one last time before y/n was no longer herself "You are now Shadowheart, my student. Release your shadow control ability."

All of our classmates ran away, including Marinette and Alya, Chloe, on the other hand, was already gone for a long time and was probably hiding, Y/n will probably come after her and show her how strong she is now

I went to another place to transform, I hid myself and plagg came out of my jacket "we have to help her plagg I'm sure she doesn't mean anything bad and doesn't want to fight against ladybug and catnoir either I will help her get back to herself come" I said before I transformed

Pov y/n [Shadowheart]:

T

he night surrounded the city with darkness as I stood on an abandoned building. Suddenly I heard the distinctive sound of paws on the roof and saw Cat Noir walking next to me.

"What brings you up here, Shadowheart?" he asked me with a serious expression.

"I want revenge on Chloe," I answered firmly.

Cat Noir sighed. "y/n, this isn't the right way. I can't just let you go."

I stared at him, my resolve unbroken. "I'm not y/n anymore I'm shadowheart and you won't be able to stop me, Cat Noir."

I noticed a regretful look on Cat Noir's face as he got into a fighting stance. "Then I guess we'll have to sort this out another way."

The night enveloped the city in darkness as I and Cat Noir faced each other on the roof of an abandoned building. He attacked without a word, his staff flashing in the moonlight, but I deftly dodged and countered with a lightning-quick strike.
