Shining Rebirth {Vanitas x Reader} Vol.5

Tales of Alexandrite & Hatredar - Part 2

Meanwhile, in Marinette's room, Shadybug continues to look around for any clues or anything particularly interesting, Shadybug opens a drawer and finds Marinette's diary box, she breaks it open and starts to read the diary. She opens to a page displaying a photo of Marinette and Alya, surprising her. However her focus is drawn to Alexandrite and Claw Noir who has started to play with Marinette's dolls.

"I'm Ladybug! But my real name's Lazybug, because I'm lazy in every single dimension!" Claw Noir mocks.

"I wish you were Claw Noir because he's the real cool cat! And Alexandrite can date the pretty girl in pink!" Alexandrite mocks back.

Shadybug pulls down Marinette's Adrien board to separate herself from Claw Noir so she can read Marinette's diary. She sits on one of the wooden beam supports in Marinette's room and starts to read.

'Dear Diary, I can't believe I made such a blunder! I'll just die of shame this time for sure! I had a presentation to do with Adrien, my Adrien! And my little sister is in the way!'

Shadybug disgusted  "Eugh! How can anybody be so disgustingly sweet?..." She flips a page.

'Uh, Cat Noir, Sapphire and the new hero Dragon-Phoenix. We haven't known each other very long but it feels like we've been together forever.'

Shadybug widens her eyes in realization. "Ah! Ladybug. Of course, I should've known."

 'I mean that we've been fighting villains together right? Because there's absolutely nothing between us! He's just my partner Ah- my teammate is what I mean! Sapphire hates me because I'm a brat and Dragon-Phoenix terrifies me when she threaten to chop off my arms and my head.'

Shadybug looks over to Hatreder who crossed her arms looking at the sky, Alexandrite  just pull the head from the Ladybug doll, Claw Noir who is throwing and catching his staff periodically. She groans and flips a page.

{~With (Y/n) & Vanitas~}

"Now that I've seen your world, I know that my dream is not just a Utopia! And you can help me reach it!" Betterfly continues his speech

Marinette frowns. " You know, our world isn't all that perfect.. The one who holds your Miraculous here uses it for evil. And he just stole the Miraculous me and Sapphire have been guarding!"

Vanitas sighs. "If I can't manage to defeat Monarch to save my world, how could we possibly help you save yours?"

"Because the values you stand for are good, because you are the positive incarnations of Alexandrite and Dragon-Phoenix. It may seem like they have more power than you, but they don't have your strength, because they know nothing about trust and friendship and true love.  You, Vanitas, Marinette and Adrien smile when hearing this." I should be as distraught as you, in my world I am hunted relentlessly, no-one believes in heroes. Everyone is afraid of The Supreme .... I am so lonely.."

"Being alone isn't that bad." Vanitas crossed his arms.

"But you still have me." You chimed in.

"Alone with one woman I love to go on a honeymoon with is what I mean, Luv." Vanitas winks at you and he could tell Marinette is burning holes  in his skull and he throw a frying pan at her face as she yelps.

"So how do you keep from giving up?" You questioned

"I hold onto the one thing I have, hope. The hope for a better world, the hope that people can evolve. For a single decision that can change an entire lifetime!"

You look to Vanitas. "My guesses that the other Miraculous users are...us."

Vanitas nodded. "There is no mistake....if we were them, we would have done the same unless we have been in bad situations like what if we lost all hope and then we use that power for evil reasons before killing each other."
