Another day, another issue. Why are they always hanging around Marinette? Why after I chose my side, do they decide to go against me. All I want is just the taste of popularity, to be on the popular side even if they are technically wrong. Why am I always on the bad end of the stick? Why me? Why have you chosen me? Why? WHY?  

Heavy breathing filled the room as Alya woke up from her nightmare, things weren't going according to plan. She had to do something, she needed to bring power back to Lila. A goal was set in her mind, but how? How can she give Lila the power needed to protect herself? She had to think of a plan and a way. 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Alya sat on the hotel bed she stole as she moved her fingers in a repeating motion, her mind racing to think of a way, just one way to make the castle Marinette has built fall down. As she continued, the time ticked away, but her head couldn't bring her anywhere, all she could do was something she knew only had a 50% chance of working. 

She had to try though, right? She had to, even if it's 50%, she needs to crumble Marinette's castle. She needed to regain power, she needed the taste of power that filled her with happiness. 

'Hey Lila, do you think Marinette still likes Adrien?' Alya asked Lila as they ate the delicious hotel breakfast. 

'I'm not sure, she seems to be pretty smitten with Damian,' Lila said, poking at her meal. 

'Let's test the theory out, she may still like him, if she does, we can destroy her with it, right?' Alya asked, looking to Lila for a sign of hope. 

'Alya, I don't want to use Adrien like that, and for what, a bit of self-destruction? She's untouchable now with everyone else surrounding her,' Lila said, it felt a bit more genuine compared to every other time. 

'It's alright, Lila. Let's just do it, I'm sure Adrien will want her destruction just as much as us,' Alya said convincing Lila to go with the plan. 

The two of them went to meet with Adrien who was eating breakfast. They spoke in the hall. 'Adrien, we need your help,' Lila said, twirling her hair around her fingers. 

'What do you need help with?' Adrien asked, he really didn't want to go through with whatever plan they had. 

'We want you to make Mari jealous,' Alya answered with a demanding look. 

'Why? Do you think Marinette would even be jealous for me? She's clearly over me.' 

'If you never try, then you'll never know,' Alya said, trying her best to convince Adrien. 

Adrien looked hesitant so Lila said, 'Just do it.' 

'Alright then, what do you want me to do?' 

'Here's the plan,' Alya whispered the plan to him. 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

'Whats up blondie?' Nathaniel asked Adrien as they sat in the bus that they took to Gotham Academy. 

'Send a message to Marinette and the others, Alya and Lila want to use me to make Marinette jealous,' Adrien answered as he lowered his voice. 

'They have close to zero braincells,' Max replied as he sent the message. 

'Their plan is even dumber,' Adrien said as he rolled his eyes. It was surprising for Nathaniel because even a slightly more mature Adrien would never roll his eyes, but here he was, he may be a bit smarter now. 

'What is it?' Nathaniel asked, curious to the stupid plan that Lila and Alya have thought of. 

'Just listen.'
