Ladybug had just transformed and everything was going smoothly thus far, an akuma had appeared out of nowhere, attacking citizens of Paris and taking their most prized possession, presumably the akuma had had something taken away from them.

'Presumably by Chloe', Ladybug thought.

"That's not a good thing to think Mari", Tikki scolded her.

"I know, I know, but you have to admit that she has caused a lot of the akumas these days" The blue haired girl replied.

"Well, I suppose I can't argue with that", The kwami agreed.

Just then, Chat Noir swooped in, landing gracefully next to Ladybug on an old house near Adrien's.

"And how you today, my lady?" The cat said flirtatiously.

"Fine, expect for the akuma that's currently destroying the city. What about you?" She questioned the cat sarcastically.

"I'm always doing brilliantly when I'm in your presence, my  lady" Chat smirked.

Ladybug sighed before looking over at the black cat, "Wonderful, now, would you like to do your job or are you going to continue flirting?"

"Why not multi-task" He smiled before leaping off the building, Ladybug following closely.

As they reached the battle field where the akuma was currently taking away a woman's daughter.

"I had my job taken away, my most prized possession in this world! Now that it's gone, no one can have happiness!" The akuma, AKA 'The Possessor' screamed.

Chat jumped down off the ledge he had landed on and faced The Possessor.

"Hey! That's not a very paw-sitive attitude" The kitty yelled.

"Hmm, what's this? A little kitty with it's claws out? And what's your prized possession, little kitty?" The akuma mused.

"Why would I tell you?", the black cat said, his eyes narrowing, a gentle smirk gracing his otherwise hostile feature, "That takes all the fun out of it."

The akuma noticed the glint of fear in the cat's eyes and the furtive glance towards the blue haired superhero, "Aw, so it's the little bug, huh?"

The cat looked up quickly," Don't you dare", he snarled, eyes wide, and teeth clenched.

The Possessor, however, didn't heed the boys warning, and just as Ladybug had crossed the final stretch of roof to get to Chat, she was suddenly scooped up by an unseen force and dragged towards the akuma.

"My, she's a pretty little thing isn't she, little kitty" The akuma smirked.

"Give her back, right now!" The cat sneered.

"Mmm, the kitty is hissing, isn't that mean, little bug?" The Possessor said.

Ladybug wriggled, trying desperately to escape, but she was only drawn in closer to Chole's most recent victim.

"Chat, don't worry about me, just try to find the pendant." The blue haired girl yelled to her partner.

"Hey! I never said you could talk, little bug!" The akuma sneered.

Chat Noir lunged forward as The Possessor's hand flew towards his beloved Ladybug's cheek. Just before he got there, her cheek was turned an apple red, a small cry escaping her lips.

Chat's features turned from their usual care-free, if slightly tense at the moment, resting state, into ones of sharp, piercing rage. He grabbed the pendant that held the akuma-tized butterfly and crushed it in his bare hands, but not before getting a good kick in on The Possessor.

Ladybug almost immediately fell, catching on window ledges and hanging tree branches. As it turned out, The Possessor figured out that luck was one of her most prized possessions, taking this power away from her made her ability to catch herself an in instant rather difficult. She did catch herself before she hit the ground, but not without receiving a fair amount of scratches and bruises, that was going to be hard to explain to her mom, not to mention Alya. Mid-fall she had also managed to catch the papillon, by dumb luck (not that she would admit that).
"Bye bye, little butterfly" she whispered, still trying to get over the overwhelming pain in her right arm, which she had hit and scratched more times than she could count on the way down.

Chat found her after a bit, not seeing where she had fallen as he had been to distracted by his seething rage.
"My lady, I'm so sorry..." He trailed off, anger replaced by shame.

"It's not your fault, Chat, and anyway, it's very flattering that you care enough about me that I would be used as bait against you." Mari chuckled.

Chat pulled out a bandage from one of his pockets, placing it over one of her many still bleeding cuts.

"You're my most prized partner, of course I care for you" he mumbled, a slight blush covering his cheeks.

Suddenly, Ladybug leaned in, pressing her lips against his for a quick peck, but what was a quick peck in reality felt like an eternity in nirvana in the black cats mind. Her warm, soft lips against his own felt like home, and when she finally broke the kiss he felt a sense of longing, one that felt almost like homesickness.

"Thanks, little kitty", Ladybug said, a faint blush covering her cheeks as well, before pulling out her yo-yo and flying off further into the dark streets of Paris.

Hello, mon petit papillon, I'm sorry this one took so long, I have finals coming up and I've been studying. I hope this was nothing less than satisfactory! Let me know if there's anything you'd like me to change.

Until next time,
Jess
