How Could We Do This?

Chapter Nine

I woke up to screaming.

"Adrien there's an akuma!" I screamed, only to be met with the same screaming that woke me up. Adrien was gone.

"Tikki, spots on!" I yelled, transforming into Ladybug. I had to fight. Nausea was building up, signaling morning sickness coming up.

"I have to fight!" I yelled at myself, swinging my yoyo to a near by building. I was swung through the air, hearing loud booming. I couldn't pinpoint where it was coming from. I landed, pulling out the phone feature on my yoyo

I called Adrien, getting no answer. I was getting frustrated and bile was slowly building up in my throat. More screams and booms came from somewhere but I again couldn't pinpoint it. I remembered the lady blog and pulled up the live video feed at the moment.

"We're standing at the Notre-Dame de Paris, watching the battle between Chat Noir and The Purifier." Alya said, winking into the camera. I muttered a thanks and flew into the air again with my yoyo.

When I got to the church, I saw Chat fighting the priest looking man. The man had a superhero outfit like that of a priest. I felt anger build up slightly as I saw Chat fighting for his life.

"Why didn't you wake me up?!" I yelled to chat as I swung up to fight. Chat glared at me, an annoyed look on his face.

"You're pregnant, you don't need to be woken up until the akuma needs purified." Chat said, dodging a white blast from the Purifier's crucifix. I huffed.

"I'm fine Chat. You need to learn that I can fight st..." I was cut off by puke that suddenly found its way to the surface. I unloaded my stomach onto the pavement, seeing Chat jump in front of me suddenly.

"The girl is pregnant before marriage?! This is a sin!" The priest yelled, shooting a beam of light at me, Chat blocking it. I couldn't understand what the Priest's problem was, but I ignored it, having to focus on my stomach instead.

"This is why I didn't wake you up! He could've killed you had I not been here!" Chat yelled, blocking another blast. I was angry. I pulled myself together and got prepared to fight.

"The akuma is in his Crucifix!" I yelled, trying to find an opening in this guy's defenses. Chat was angry as well.

"Marinette, stop putting our baby in danger!" He yelled, pushing me lightly in an attempt to get me to go home. I kept fighting, ignoring him as I used my lucky charm. A ladybug spotted vial of holy water fell down. I caught it, using my ladybug vision to find what I needed to use it.

I took the cork off the bottle, walking to the priest while dodging his attacks. I quickly managed to get in front of him and throw the water into his eyes, causing him to rub them in sight pain. He dropped his crucifix. I broke it with my foot, catching the akuma with my yoyo and throwing my lucky charm in the air to fix everything.

"Marinette! Why don't you listen to me?!" Chat cried, pulling me into him. I pushed him off, glaring at him as he leaned over to listen to my stomach.

"Chat I'm fine, the baby's fine and the day is saved so stop treating me like I'm a baby!" I yelled at him, pushing him onto the ground. He looked at me hurt but I had no time to console him.

"THAT'S IT!" A voice boomed over Paris. I looked around with a glare, seeing a man on a small cloud of butterflies land in front of Chat and I.

"Hawkmoth!" Chat and I said at the same time, getting in defensive positions. Hawkmoth stepped off his little army with an annoyed look.

"Ladybug, you will die and give me your miraculous!" Hawkmoth said, getting ready to fight as well. My eyes widened slightly as I put a hand on my stomach, fearful for my baby's life.
