THE CAT IN THE BAT'S CITY

CHAPTER 1

Darkness, a word that plagued her vision since forever. She wasn't blind, yet she felt like one.

It wasn't peaceful yet felt comforting. It pulled her in further and further, till she couldn't find the surface above.

   
"-rriin..... " A blurred voice rang in the silence.

"Rinn... -rinette! " It grew louder and louder.

"Marintte! ", the gruff and squeaky voice called her being.
    
       Jostling awake, marinette hand shot up to grab her bonded knife. A weapon gifted to her by the order of assasins. A unit ruled by Ra al-ghul. She didn't really like the order as they trained to kill and forced their children to carry on their legacy.

          Also for their misuse of the pits. As the weilder to the God of destruction. Her being craved the feeling of it. The destruction was stronger there, however it also left her sickened.
 
      She couldn't get over the fact that her soul felt connected to the place so corrupted. She was respected and feared, the miraculous of destruction was the reason for the existence of pits.

       At the age 16 , she was orphaned. Adopted by her honoured uncle, jagged stone.

     After the reign of hawkmoth, the existence of marinette dupain-cheng-stone dissapeared.
       Her adopted parents were devastated and tried everything to find her. She gave them a dead end each and everytime. Jagged and penny healed as a new member joined their family, they named him Marin, after her.

      Her dissapearance was news to some and information to others. Her trusted partners knew of her locations.

Felix  gram de-vanily, the former weilder of the peacock miraculous.

Kagami tsurugi, the former weilder to the dragon miraculous.

Adrien agreste, the former weilder to the ladybug miraculous.

Luka couffaine, former weilder to the snake miraculous.

Alix, current weilder to the rabbit miraculous.

     
  Marinette huffed and slowly released her grip on the blade as she saw her kwami hovering in front of her face.
She groaned and flopped back on the bed with her arm covering her eyes.
"Plagg! I told you not to do that! ", she said exasperated. Plagg narrowed his eyes at her, and crossed his arms.

" Hey, you can't say that after you knocked out for a day straight! " He gruffed out. Marinette again sat up, removing her hands and scowling at him.

" You could have done that in a softer way", she said. Plagg rolled his eyes at her.

"Like you would wake up at that. ", He mocked her and flew away to cuddle on her shoulder blade, purring quietly.

   Her fingers stroked his head and rubbed her chin against the side of his face. Plagg purred louder and louder,it reminded her of her own purring when she is in suit.

     It was a side effects she got from the miraculous, it gave her cat like feature and characters. Her nails always grew slightly pointed and her senses heightened.

           Plagg was rare to show affection, so she basked in the feeling. Maria Scott, age 26 was the alter ego she chose when arriving in gotham. Hidden CEO of  Felis designs & Co. She was successful and rich.

   Money, something that may not gain you emotions or innocence, however it gives you power.
Fake passports and make up history for every country or state she visited was hard.

  Money made it a lot easier and been backed up by magic worked wonders. She was in the city of gotham. A city known for corruption and criminalization, then again it was also known for heroes or rather Vigilants.
