{--Adrien--}

I listen in on what Tikki and Plagg are yelling at Marinette about. Their bodyguards are in the room, I'm out here, probably going to be hung after this. I want to run but they put a tracker on my ankle in case I tried. "Marinette, we told you, no more breaking rules." I hear Plagg say.

"I-I know. I'm sorry." I'm not. I took her first kiss, even though it was probably for Nathanael.

"This was going to be special. Your first kiss, being with the person you were going to be with forever. Now you've ruined it." I hear Tikki scoff. They're harsh.

"I-I know I'm sorry but, but-"

"But what Marinette?" I don't hear anything. "Nothing?" Plagg laughs. "As I thought. You're just a rebellious teenager. I knew I shouldn't have let you go to school, let alone out of the castle for anything. Only rewarding bad behavior."

"I know I messed up but please, don't take away my freedom." Marinette begs.

"We're on our last resort Marinette," I hear Tikki say. "We're keeping you hear until your marriage and you are no longer dating Nathanael, we will choose your suitor," I hear her whimper. "And Adrien won't protect you anymore. He's done enough damage."

"And we will notify his parents that he will be in the castle dungeons." A shiver goes down my spine. The people listening in around me give me a sympathetic look.

"I kissed him! It's my fault! Don't blame him!"

"He took your first kiss. We have to punish him," I gulp. I'm dead. Only the worst people get sent in there. "You may not visit him and you will not leave your room unless it's for a meal or dress fitting."

"No."

"What?"

"No. I'll do what I want!" I hear Marinette yell. "I'm living my life and I don't care about these stupid rules! This is my life and I'll do what I want!"

"Not in my kingdom!" I hear Plagg yell. A shiver goes down my spine.

"Well it's going to be mine!"

"Not anymore!" Plagg yells. "And you won't be Princess either! You, Marinette Dupain-Cheng are no longer a Royal Princess!"

"Plagg!" I hear Tikki yell.

"Fine!" I hear Marinette yell and she storms out of the room, nearly knocking me over. Her eyes were yellow. They call my name to come in but I run after her instead. I chase after her down the halls and into her room. I close the door after she slammed it and she started to pack a bag on her closet floor. I walk in and see her stuffing clothes in. I walk up to her as she throws in a pair of pants.

"Marinette?" I touch her shoulder and she smacks my hand away. She glares at me. I take a step back. "Marinette, where'll you go?"

"Away. Away from here," she throws in a pair of shoes. Adrien watched as she threw things into the bag, took a few out and threw them somewhere then threw in more. "From him."

"I-I've never heard him be so-"

"Mean, brutal, heartless?" I nodded. "Get him angry enough and he'll do that." She threw in a few shirts and a dress.

"Marinette, I-I'm sorry I got you into this mess."

"No," she turned to me and threw her shirt into the pile called her suitcase. "I should be sorry. I got you into this by kissing you," she looked down. A saw a tear hit the ground. "I-It's all my fault." She holds her hands to her eyes and I hug her. She collapses to the floor and I go with her. I hear the door creek open but ignore it.

{--Tikki--}

I look through Marinettes closet door and see Adrien and her hugging on the floor. "It's all my fault!" Marinette yells. I feel bad. I see a pile of clothes behind her with a bag underneath. I glare at Plagg behind me. He doesn't see. His arms are crossed and he's facing away.

"Nothing is your fault Marinette. You break rules, that's just you. No one could hold you down and no one can, it's his fault for even trying too." I hear Plagg scoff. I roll my eyes. Adriens really a poetic person. If he wasn't a half blood I would let him marry Marinette but, we can't ruin the bloodline so he can't, unless he changes to vampire soon. My best friend, her husband was a half blood and turned pure when he changed.

"Y-You're going to the dungeon! No one comes back from there! That's my fault!"

"No, it's not," he says calmly. "It's my burden. If I go there then you'll get a chance at being happy. Sure, I might die but that's my job. Dying so you can live." He smiles and Marinette digs her head into his shoulder.

"I don't want you to die!" Marinette cries. "Everything is my fault! I should've have broken any of those rules to begin with!"

"Don't you dare say that!" I flinch and Marinette looks up at him. "Breaking rules is who you are, Marinette! It's Plagg and Tikkis fault for even putting a wall up on your freedom! Don't you dare say anything is your fault! If something makes you happy keep doing it! It can go a long way," he stands up and helps her stand. "Now, I have to go," he walks out of the closet and he looks at me. "I'm ready to go my Queen." He holds his wrists out.
