A Series of Events

Chat, Alex, and Tony hurried back to the dojo to think of a plan. The car was still moving, so they couldn't track her down at the moment. Chat ran inside, and Master Fu changed out his ring. Chat got dressed out of his tux and jumped back into his suit. He disintegrated a rock he found, and waited for the miraculous to time out.

"So I'll run in, grab her, kick ass, take names, and leave." Chat summed up as he walked in.

"More like we'll run in, sneakily grab her, and leave without making a noise." Tony corrected.

"Like hell. They took my lady. So I'll beat their ass." He said. Angrily. The group talked down a bit, and Adrien's suit timed out. He was now his normal self, but it didn't matter.

Alex went and got Plagg some cheese to recharge.

"Okay. So we know they are heading to his private headquarters. This is a good thing. Then we'll be able to pin point where he spends his time. Ladybug did a huge favor for us." Alex said, looking over some information.

"Good for us, not for her. She was already shocked. Who knows what else will happen?" Adrien pointed out.

"If you are adamant in going to save her, then I will allow you." Master Fu told him. This surprised Alex and Tony.

"But he's only 17." They said.

"And? He needs to do what he feels is correct. I have mixed feelings as well, but I think heart will save better than logic." He told them calmly. They didn't argue the point, and instead, they thought of ideas.

"Her mask will time out in about 30 minutes. That means we need to get in there quick. Quickly get in, quickly get out." Tony said. Adrien nodded. He felt pumped.

Alex paid attention to the tracker, and it finally popped up.

"She's in!" She said. She located the earrings.

"Weird. She's in the Agreste manor?" She said. Adrien looked shocked. Does his father have relations with Hawkmoth.

"Wherever it is, I'll go." Adrien said. "Plagg, claws out." Chat transformed. He now had his ears and normal ring. It seems the transformation would only last one go.

"Find a large stain glass window with multiple circles on it. She should be there. We had our doubts, but it seems the truth is out. If you sneak into the manor, you should be able to find her." Alex told her.

"Alrighty. I know that place well, so I should be quick." He said. He had his staff strapped to his back.

"Goodbye." He said. He jumped out of the window, and sprinted towards his house. He didn't even have enough capacity to think about the possibilities of why Hawkmoth was there. All he knew was that his lady was there, and is about to expose herself.

"Don't worry Mi'Lady. I'm coming."

Hawkmoth exited the car with a writhing girl in handcuffs and a bag over her head. They had to gag her mid rid because she was yelling so much.

As his bodyguards dragged her inside, Hawkmoth pointed to a little set up.

"Shackle her up there, and you can leave. I can take care of her from here." He told them. They cuffed her wrists and ankles together, and chains connected from the shackles to the floor. Even if she broke the chains, she wouldn't be able to run.

The bodyguards hooked her up, and left the room. Now it was just Hawkmoth, Ladybug, and thousands of white swarming butterflies.

"Nooroo. Transform." He said. His fake butterfly mask was replaced with a full face mask, and his normal purple tux sprouted moth accents all over.
