Chloe strutted towards Adrien, a hint of wickedness in her eyes.
"Hi Adrikins!" she exclaimed, as she wrapped her arms around his neck.
"What do you want?" he asked, shaking himself off of her.
"I have a new set of rules," said Chloe with an evil smirk.
"What are they?" asked Adrien sadly, looking away from Chloe.
"When that Maritrash you love is anywhere near us, you have to kiss me. When Nino asks what you are doing being with me or if you are anywhere near Nino, you have to compliment me. And when you're near Alya, you must insult Maribrat. Ok? Ok," explained Chloe.
Meanwhile...
"Can I try it out?" pleaded Marinette, forgetting the whole reason of her sadness.
"Please say yes. It'll be cool!" exclaimed Alya in agreement.
"Yeah, she'll look great!" added Nino.
"Hmm, well I don't know if it is wise," started Wayzz.
"As long as you feed me camembert everyday when I ask," said Plagg, interrupting the wise kwami.
"I have a whole cupboard full of that. We found it and mum decided to keep it in the stockroom because it was so smelly," cried Marinette, laughing at the memory. Plagg's face lit up with excitement.
"Really?" he gasped.
"Yeah. All you have to do is ask and it's yours," said Marinette with a sweet smile.
Back to Adrien...
"Plagg, I hate doing this to Marinette," said Adrien with a sad sigh. "Can I please have my ring back."
After no response, he began to grow suspicious of the kwami inside of his pocket.
"Plagg? Please don't give me the silent treatment!" whined Adrien.
He looked inside of his pocket and didn't see Plagg!
"I've lost him! Oh no! Oh no no no no NOOOO!" cried Adrien.
"You have not lost him," said a familiar voice.
"Master Fu?" gasped Adrien, turning to look behind him.
"Yes. He is not lost, but instead finding himself. And helping you to find your true self," explained Master Fu.
"Where is he then?" asked Adrien, frowning at the riddle.
"With LadyNoir," replied Master Fu
"Who's LadyNoir?"
"Plagg makes a part of LadyNoir," smiled Master Fu. "She will be the best of us. They think I don't know but I know all. For example, this time away from him will help you remember where your priorities lie."
"I still don't know who LadyNoir is," groaned Adrien, growing impatient.
Master Fu sighed and then walked away.
"WHY WON'T YOU TELL ME WHO LADYNOIR IS?" shrieked Adrien, attracting some heads being turned to give him funny looks.
Meanwhile...
The three friends and four kwamis were all having a feast in Marinette's room. Everyone was eating cookies except from Plagg. (He was obviously having camembert).
"Let's transform," cried Marinette when she finished devouring a freshly baked, chocolate-chip cookie.
Wayzz demonstrated what Tikki and Plagg had to do when she was about to transform. He then explained to Marinette what she should do.
"Tikki, spots on!" cried Marinette, lighting up with joy when her teaching was done. She looked down at her suit and began to remember what to do. She placed the cat ring on her finger.
"Tikki, Plagg... unify!" said Ladybug, holding out both her hands. A ladybug symbol and a cat symbol appeared and she merged them together.
When the transformation was completed. Rena Rouge and Carapace stared at her in awe.
"Woah Marinette," gasped Carapace.
She wore a ladybug dress, cat ears and tail, her mask was half Ladybug and half Chat Noir and her hair was in a long, plaited ponytail.
She looked at herself in the mirror.
"Wow!" gasped LadyNoir.
Adrien burst through the door to find, they had all left.
"I need help, m'lady. I don't know where Plagg is and who he is with. I'm worried. You're the only one I can trust, even if you can't trust me," he whispered before leaving.
