Custom Maid

Chapter 12

It had been a few hours since Chat Noir and Ladybug left the tv studio, and they were now Adrien and Marinette on top of the Eifel Tower.

As soon as they had left the studio, Marinette called out her name, throwing her yoyo into the air, and changed everything back to how it was before Custom Maid.

It had been a few hours, and yet, no one had anything to say to anyone else.

At long, long last Nooroo had enough courage to speak up.

"Um, thank you for rescuing me, Ladybug and Chat Noir," he said to Marinette and Adrien, both of them staying quiet.

Marinette because she was still worried about Adrien's feelings, and Adrien because he was just too mad to speak.

"That's alright Nooroo," Tikki said for them, giving the Moth Kwami a big hug "We're just happy you're alright."

"Hey Nooroo," Marinette said looking to the Kwami "If you don't mind me asking... How did you get mixed up in all that just happened?" she asked trying not to mention Adrien's dad or Hawk Moth.

"He found my Miraculous," Nooroo said timidly "I was asleep when he found it so i can't remember where I was, and nor can I remember who the Great Master set me with before that. All I remember is being assigned at the same time as Penny, but I never got to work out who her human partner was."

"Who?" Adrien and Marinette asked together.

"She's the Kwami to the Peacock Miraculous," Tikki explained.

"Come to think of it..." Plagg said munching on his cheese "I think I might have an idea who had her. That is if it's the real one and not a fake like Leila's..."

"What are you talking about Plagg?" Tikki asked, always getting annoyed when he does this.

"Ok the day that Leila girl got changed into an Akumatized version of Volpina, Adrien found out his dad had a secret safe behind that big painting of his mom," Plagg explained "There wasn't much in there, just some tickets, recites, brochures', a picture of Adrien's mom, that dumb book, and a hair pin that looked like a peacock."

"And you didn't think of saying this?" Tikki asked glaring at him her arms crossed.

"Well until early this morning we were apart..." Plagg said trying to calm her down.

"So, my mum might have been the bearer of the Peacock Miraculous?" Adrien asked finally speaking once again.

"Great, just another big fat secret they kept from me..." Adrien says acting like an 8 year old and pouting.

"So if that is likely the case," Marinette said carefully "Would Adrien's dad know, or not?"

"Can we stop calling that man my dad please," the blonde boy asked looking out over the town "How about we just go to my house and get it? And while you lot are doing that, I can pack a bag of some of my things. Because there's no way I'm living in the same place as him ever again."

Agreeing and Marinette deciding to ask if he had a place to stay later, the teens both transformed, and took off towards Adrien's, soon to be, old house.

-------------------------------------

Getting to Agreste Manor, and changing back, Adrein told Plagg to show Marinette where the painting was while he went up to his room to get some things.

The painting was in Gabriel Agreste's office.

Pulling it away from the wall, the Cat Kwami unlocked it from the inside and it flung open.

As it did right away Nooroo, Tiki and Marinette saw everything that Plagg said was in there, minus the book, and right there was the hair pin said to be the Peacock's Miraculous.

Reaching out, Marinette picked it up and suddenly there was a bright bright-blue light coming off it.

Once it had died down there was a fourth Kwami floating with the rest yawning and stretching herself.

"Penny!" the other three cried out and gave her a group hug shocking her, but she quickly got over it.

"Hey guys," she said hugging them back and looking to Marinette, then spotting the earrings added "And hello to you too Ladybug."

"Um... Hi," Marinette said waving gently "It's um... Nice to meet you, Penny."

Just then Adrien came in with his bag shocking Penny and making her hide behind Marinette.

"It's ok Penny that's just Adrien, Plaggs new kitten," Tikki explained smiling.

"I take it, it was the real one then?" Adrien asked coming over to say hello.

"Seems like it," Marinette said unsure where to take this "So... Now what?"

"How about we get Penny and Nooroo back to where they came from?" he asked playing with his ring a bit.

Agreeing that that sounded like a good idea, the teenagers called out to their Kwami and transformed into their hero selves.

Once they were changed they took an extra Miraculous and Kwami each and took off to that little old Chinese shop.
