              "I can't let this happen!" I whispered to myself as I watched Adrien get pulled into a slow dance with his excuse of a girlfriend, Chloe. The Bubbler was looking away searching through his disks.
            I climbed up on top of the outer brick wall circling the giant front of the mansion. No one had seen me yet. After glancing around quickly, it suddenly struck me that Cat Noir was no where to be seen.
I can handle this on my own.
            Focusing all my concentration on my hands, I felt the ice cold energy plowing up inside me. I threw my hand back, and thrashed it forward, my left leg kicking up in the air. A shock of electric blue ice crystals shot forward and made a loud crash! as it wrecked the DJ equipment.
            Everyone glanced up to see who had just saved their lives, and once they saw me, they got huge smiles of relief on their faces. Adrien had a confused glance, though. Shaking the thought out, I looked up at the Bubbler who was scowling at me.
           "What's your damage, dude?" Bubbler asked, his voice the exact same trace as Niño's.
           "You took all the adults away," I said in as smooth of a voice as I could manage, snapping my fingers, which created swirls of snow. "and you have to bring them back." My voice changed to a more menacing tone.
            "Party's over, Bubbler!" I shouted and jumped down from the wall, my feet landing on an ice platform that I had created.
            Everyone started running as the Bubbler pulled out his bubbler wand. I watched in bewilderment as he drew his bubble wand past me, creating millions of little neon green bubbles. I struck more ice cycles at them, the ice shards popping the bubbles to nothing. The Bubbler tried to knock me off my feet by swirling his wand around and hitting my legs, but missed as I flew into the air and did a backflip.
             Bubbler blew another attack at me, only this time, I wasn't quick enough. Ice was having trouble shooting through the blue gloves.
            I watched, trying not to show my terror as the bubbles came shooting at me. I lifted my arm up to cover my face and waited for the impact to come, but it didn't.
          "Looks like I got here just in time." I opened my eyes and was greeted by Cat Noir smiling at me, in his battle position, his stick in hand.
Aww, he saved me. I thought quickly, before snapping my fingers and accidentally shooting some ice onto his nose. His eyes went big at the sudden chill.
           "Thanks," I said sweetly. "but I had it under control."
     The Bubbler let out a big grunt and encircled me and Cat Noir in a cloud of sticky bubbles. I tried to brush them off and Cat tried to scratch them off. They encircled faster and faster until Cat and I were trapped in a giant green bubble together.
          The bubbler laughed as I tried to poke the bubble.
     "Did you honestly think I would let you defeat me so easily?" The Bubbler asked. I shook my head.
        "Why do you even want those stupid adults back anyway?" The Bubbler said.
    "Because kids need to be safe!" I shouted at him.
       "Wrong, kids need fun, freedom!"
     "But they also need protection. What happens if some kid just walks out onto the streets and a car is speeding at them? Then what?"
       Cat Noir said something under his breath I couldn't hear.
"You must bring the adults back!" Cat said menacingly.
       "You know what, since you two care about these adults so much, you can just go join them in the sky!" With one quick movement, Cat and I were being sent up into the air, foot by foot.
        Cat tried hitting the bubble open, my arm wrapped around his chest. It was a small bubble, okay?
         "Your Cataclysm!" I said, the idea forming in my head. "You couldn't have thought of that 500 feet ago?" Cat asked teasingly.
         "Well, we can't stay in this bubble together forever!" Cat smiled and winked at me. I shook my head and laughed.
         Cat shouted, "Cataclysm!" And placed his darkening paw on the floor of the bubble, making us free fall into the air.
         "What now, Blue?" Cat asked me, using his nickname for me. "You want to see if you can land on your feet this time?" I asked hopefully.
         "No thanks!" I could barely hear hiss voice. "Hold onto me!" I cried out to him and he wrapped me into his arms. Even though I was thoroughly enjoying this, we were going to become cat and snow mush if I didn't act fast.
          "Pegasus!" I cried out, signaling my inner core to change my form into Pegasus Snowdrop. Before we knew it, Cat was on my back and I was flying, my now four legs running across the air as I made my way back down to Earth.
           As I landed, Cat climbed off and I transformed back into human form. Cat glanced at my necklace and his ring. "We have to act fast." He said quickly, knowing that we would change back soon. Even though we both wanted to know who we really were, it just wasn't possible.
             We made our way to the Eiffel Tower where the Bubbler was standing admiring his work as the adults flew up, up, up in his malicious bubble compartments. "The akuma should be in his bubble wand." Cat whispered to me.
           "Good eye, kitty," I said, using my nickname for him. "I need you to distract him while I try to sneak up on him and grab his wand from him." Cat nodded at my plan.
           After snapping my fingers, an ice path shot from my fingers and I held it as steady as possible as I stepped carefully onto it. Cat Noir was distracting the Bubbler by making him shoot bubbles at him, trying to catch him.
         I wiggled my fingers, making sure the ice path was steady and started walking forward, the ice path continuing in front of me, and disappearing behind me as I walked along the air about ten feet high above them.
         After glancing at my necklace, I knew I had only little time left. Opting my time, I watched as Cat got him in just the right position.
        "Hey, Bubbler!" I cried. And as soon as he turned around I leapt from the ice platform and tumbled through the air, hitting him like a bowling ball, making us both fall over. Bubbler groaned in pain, and I shook my aching head, and grabbed the wand.
        Cat ran over and smiled at me.
     I broke the wand in two with my knee and threw it on the ground.
     "Time to de-evilize!" I cried and watched as the akuma flew out of the wand.
       My arms thrust out and I pulled the akuma to me using a rope made of snow, and attracted the moth into my hands. I clasped my hands together and focused on putting the light energy back into the akuma.
         After letting go, the butterfly flew away and everything else returned back to normal as Cat and I watched Niño transform back. "Dude..." Niño whispered in confusion.
         "Pound it!" Cat and I said, bumping fists.
BEEP BEEP! "Uh, oh!" I said.
       "Gotta fly." But before I could run, Cat grabbed my arm. "See you later?" Cat asked, his eyes full of hope.
       "Sure, kitty." I smiled and leapt away into hiding where I could transform back. The only thing that I thought was bad about today was that my heart had been beating so loud I almost swore Cat could hear it.

................. ..................

          "What exactly is this for?" I asked Niño, running my finger along a loose streamer hanging from the dark ceiling. We were in the party room where all of the special parties took place, and also where Savannah had concerts. Her special talent was singing.
         Niño shrugged and secretly smiled to himself. "I don't know, dude. I told you, all Alya told me was to take you here at five." I shook my head and stared out at the dark stage. All the lights had been turned off and we were the only ones here.
         "Maybe-" but before I could even finish my sentence, suddenly, the lights switched on, a bunch of LED lights sparking on, and neon lights lit up the ceiling. I watched in bewilderment as all of my friends came dancing through the double doors, their shirts saying, "HAPPY BIRTHDAY, ADRIEN!" Which is exactly what they cried once they saw me.
         A playlist made entirely with Avril Lavigne and Cascada songs came on. I looked around the room and smiled, everyone was here... Except Savannah...
         "Surprise, dude!" Niño said, smiling widely, then danced away to Alya. After enjoying the party for a while, I found Marinette who was watching the dance floor.
        She got a surprised look when I walked up to her. "Hey Marinette," I said calmly. "Do you know where Savannah is?" Marinette smiled once she heard me say that.
       "Don't you know, Adrien?" She asked. "Savannah is the one who threw you this party! Now go out and enjoy it!" Marinette pushed me back into the circle of my friends.
        I stood there for a moment, letting what Marinette said sink in. Savannah threw ME this amazing party?
    Suddenly, all the lights turned off, and the stage light turned on. What is it with all the lights? Then everyone started cheering. I didn't understand. At least I didn't until Savannah walked onto stage wearing the most beautiful outfit I've ever seen on her.
          Just seeing her made me smile.
     Her white blonde hair was braided and was draped over her left bare shoulder. She wore a midnight blue dress that sparkled in the lighting, and her combat boots were traded in for black platform flats. Her makeup was barely noticeable, but still lit up her face.
          She looked down at me, and grabbed the microphone.
     "Happy birthday, Adrien," she smiled. "I hope you're enjoying the party that yours truly pulled." Everyone clapped and I couldn't help but smile.
          Then the lighting changed a little bit, and Savannah broke into one of my personal favorites she sang at her concerts that I always went to, Hands of Time by Rachel Diggs.
        Her voice rang smoothly and solidly through the microphone making everyone start dancing. I started dancing along with everyone else, letting the beat of Savannah's glorious voice sink in.
        "Life is a carousel,
                  Dancing round the mirrors we go up and down...
            So let the music take away the hurt
                    You've come to know so well,
               Let it go cause'"
"You can't turn back the hands of time," everyone sang along. "Just let it go and you'll be fine..."
          I smiled to myself one last time. This was just what I had pictured my birthday party to be like, and Savannah was definitely a great party planner.

             BLOOPER EXCLUSIVE: Savannah's Obsession

            "STARBUCKS!" I watched in horror as Savannah leapt from the limo, the giant cup of Starbucks still in her hand and ran into the school, screaming, "I HATE ANYONE WHO HATES STARBUCKS!"
           Before I could run after her, Marinette and Niño came up to me.
   "Dude, what did you do to Savannah? The lady's crazy." Niño said to me right before we heard Savannah scream at Chloe, "Just because I'm not nice doesn't mean I'm not, you idiot!"
"All I did was give her Starbucks..." I whispered in bewilderment. Alya gasped. "You gave her Starbucks! Adrien, no! When she has Starbucks she goes-"
"I HATE FLYING MONKEYS!" Savannah screamed at Kim who looked about ready to punch her.
"Insane..." Alya finished her sentence right before running away when Savannah came running to me. Niño dashed behind Alya. I was left with this crazy lady...
"Adriekins, hi!" Savannah cried, her eyes huge. "Do you like dogs?" I hesitated, unsure what answer she would take as wrong.
"N-n-no?" I answered.
Savannah's eyebrows arched, and I knew it was now or never. I started sprinting and pretty soon me and Savannah were chasing one another around, Savannah screaming, "GET BACK HERE YOU ADORABLE FLUFFY KITTY!"
