[Mariposa Spanish for Butterfly] Today was the day. The day when Marinette would tell Adrien how she felt about him. But then... It all goes wrong... Witness the fall of Ladybug and the rise of Mariposa, Princess of all Akuma's.
Tom Dupain and Sabine Cheng were just packing up the bakery when Adrien rushed in, panting slightly.
"Adrien?" Tom asked coming over to the boy to check if he was alright.
"I'm fine," Adrien said after a bit "But can I stay here until the storm outside quiets down?" he asked.
"Wouldn't it be safer for you to be home?" Sabine asked coming over with some water for him.
"Turns out, Mariposa is after me as well as Chat Noir," Adrien said taking a sip "So I doubt that heading home will be a good idea. *Not like anyone will notice that I'm missing...*" he said mumbling the last part, thinking of his dad.
"Well I believe you should at least call your father to tell him that you are alright," Tom said going over to the phone and picking it up.

At Adrien's house, Gabriel was in a state trying to work out where his son was.
It had now coming up to two days, since he went missing, and nothing had come back to him.
Just as he was about to head out and look for his son himself, the phone started to ring.
"Yes?" he asked not recognizing the number.
'Hello Father, it's me...'Adrien's voice said.
"Adrien!" Gabriel asked a mix of anger and relief coming over him. "What's been going on? Where are you? Why have you been gone for two days?"
'I'm being hunted by Mariposa, I'm at the Dupain-Cheng bakery, and I've been captured by her the last couple of days.' Adrien replied answering each question.
"What?!" Gabriel asked slamming his fist to the desk "Come home now."
'But Father...' Adrien tried to reason with him.
"NOW!" Gabriel said demandingly, before hanging up, and leaving the room.

At her palace, Mariposa was watching the many screens Lady Wifi had set up viewing everything that was happening, a small grin on her face, looking for a certain blonde teenager.
