Night watcher, I am Chloe Bourgeois! || Miraculous Ladybug

Looping like a fever dream (1)

. . . It was a dream?

'Tt wasn't.'

Void?

'It wasn't a dream.'

Void. Your voice is shaky.

'As if I can control that. This is first for me too.'

.. Let's calm ourselves down a bit together.

We took a moment of silence to stabilize ourselves before Void started.

'I don't know what happened but something has rewinded the time.'

His voice rang like a horror trumpet which made my hands tremble.

I put them under the desk and clenched them together.

. . So, tell me the truth, are we in a loop?

'Most likely.'

How? Haven't we destroyed the snake miraculous back then? Looping should not be possible.

'Exactly, it can't be, yet, that is exactly what is happening.'

Then why do I remember the last loop? It didn't happen the last time.

'Since you're not transformed, I could use my powers to my liking, naturally, I used my powers on us when we were almost sucked in the atmosphere back then.'

You didn't disappeared? Your voice faded last time.

'I just wasn't able to respond but I was still there.'

And, you are capable of not letting the loop affect us?

'Huhu~ there is a reason why I was still hidden from the rabbit miraculous and the barrow observers throughout history. I can do way more than you can think.'

Why didn't I used this back in September incident? You could have told me.

'You could have, sure~ but that may have 𝘤𝘰𝘯𝘴𝘦𝘲𝘶𝘦𝘯𝘤𝘦 in your height reducing to negative six feet~.'

I see, that makes sense. With just using a portion of his powers I ended in coma. Using this kind of power could have me killed.

. . . Wait. So you're telling me that I can use your powers without receiving 𝘤𝘰𝘯𝘴𝘦𝘲𝘶𝘦𝘯𝘤𝘦𝘴?

'There is no usage without the 𝘤𝘰𝘯𝘴𝘦𝘲𝘶𝘦𝘯𝘦𝘴. Your heavy heart beat and almost hyperventilating state earlier were the 𝘤𝘰𝘯𝘴𝘦𝘲𝘶𝘦𝘯𝘤𝘦𝘴. Even if you're calm now but isn't your mind still heavy?'

But that still didn't do much to me knowing how the actual 𝘤𝘰𝘯𝘴𝘦𝘲𝘶𝘦𝘯𝘤𝘦𝘴 works.

'Don't be so happy. The most we can do this is five times more, any time more and the chances of you getting in another coma is not far. The least that can happen is you fainting for a week.'

Wouldn't that also be called a coma?

By the way, why did your voice fade away when we were taking before? And this loop too... Is the rabbit miraculous behind this?

'That's a possibility.'

Just a possibility?

'Yes, I don't know for certain yet.'

You're right, rabbits miraculous is not the kind to loop time. It's theme is 'evolution'.

'It seems you are behind in the current affairs. The rabbit miraculous is useless right now.'

His words shocked me.

What!? What do you mean?

'The last time I sensed the existence of the barrow was at the September incident. Since then, I'm pretty sure that no one is operating it, or rather, can't operate it.'
