{Adrien's POV}

This was all a mess. All my fault. This was terrible. So so bad. I was mumbling to myself as I sprinted through the streets avoiding the sparks flying through the air, causing everyone struck to tell nothing but the truth.

I skidded around a corner before transforming into my alter ego; Chat noir. "PLAGG CLAWS OUT!"

It was no use. I couldn't hurt her. I just couldn't do it. I had her pinned against a wall, exhausted, we were both panting rapidly. I saw her eyes flash to a lighter shade of blue before going dark again.

It happened again several times. Going for longer and longer at a time. Each time, her suit would flicker on and off, like a glitch. Tikki flew out of her bag, as she had been trapped inside the whole time while Marinette was in her villain costume of a purple and black, magician looking suit of similar style to her ladybug one. Her earnings were now spotted purple and black, unlike her ladybug print ones.

"Adrien" Tikki coughed. "Adrien get her to transform. She may be able to fight the akuma herself as ladybug." I was terrified. What if that made it worse. What if, what if, what if, was all that seemed to circle my head.

"Adrien it's the only way. She's just getting worse. Please. Get her to say spots on". A tear shed my eye as I lifted the pinned Marinette to be eye level with me on the wall. Once she was Marinette I spoke, hoping she would hear.

"Marinette. You have to say 'Spots on' for me. Please, Ladybug" I looked her in the eyes. "A-Adrien I-I Ca-". Mari stuttered, quickly flashing back to Lady Truth. A massive smirk crossed her face.

"What was that 'Chat Noir" she laughed, putting emphasis on my name. "Did you say, 'spots on'?" A massive grin spread over her face before she laughed an evil cackle. Her suit turned into ladybugs, yet it was now black and purple.

"Oh silly kitty" she laughed, wrapping me up in her, I mean, 'Ladybugs' yoyo. She pulled me just centimetres away from my face and used her pointer finger to tilt up my chin. I shook my head, refusing to look at My Lady like this.

"Ladybug this isn't you. Fight it Marinette please. If not for me, fight it for Alya, for your class mates, for your family. Fight this akuma away for Paris Marinette. This isn't like you at all. It's not you. Marinette?!" I looked deeply into her eyes. I saw them flicker but it was no use. It wasn't going to work. She doesn't trust me anymore.

"C'mon kitty give up the soppyness. She doesn't love 'you'. She doesn't love you at all. She's just a silly little girl who can't control her emotions. I mean, look how she ended up huh?" Lady Truth smirked viciously.

I scrambled out of the yoyo holding me and ran. I ran for my dear life, hurt and distraught. I knew that it wasn't ladybug but it looked, sounded and felt like her. And I believed her.

I found myself alone in the park where I sobbed and sobbed, thinking about what I had done and how badly it had all turned out. Now I was going to have to fight her as ladybug. My first love. My partner in crime. I was going to have to fight her to the point that I could steal and crush her earings and somehow contain the Akuma.

A sharp pain suddenly flooded through my hand. A pain I had never felt before. I could feel the pain rushing to my head before I heard a voice, a rather familiar one.

"What have we here, a stray Ally cat? Haven't you leaned Chat Noir, not to make people sad. You've seen what happens and we are still at this point. I give you a round of applause. Now, bring me your miraculous Chat Noir! And bring Ladybugs too!"
