Heartbreak, Hero Style (Complete)

Fallen

Once he has untangled the newest hero to Paris from her own yoyo and a streetlight with short vines at the base, they carried on, trying to find where she had gone. It was getting more and more difficult, with the greenery trapping everybody in small cages and between walls of flowers. Ladybird was practicing with the yoyo the entire time, and Chat paid her no attention. He was busy in his own thoughts.

'Maybe she went back to the tower after all. I mean, she couldn't find Alya. But then did she go get her parents? No, we looked there, and they were gone. Nino? Probably not. Definitely not Chloé. ... Right?'

He scratched his head in confusion, and Ladybird looked over. "In telling you, she's probably at the tower. We've looked for her in a lot of different places already, and I've got this yoyo thing down."

It fell on her head when she yanked it, making her wince.

"Okay, enough to get by without killing myself."

"You really think she'll be there?"

"Of course, lover boy. I know my bestie and Ladybug better than myself. And by now, she's probably gathered everyone she wants close by, and can't find us. She'll be waiting for you to come and get her, but probably with some kind of trap for your miraculous... Or maybe not?" she tapped her lip.

"Alright, Cesaire, lead the way. You are the head of the team now."

She looked back up and nodded quickly, a determined grin spreading across her cheeks. She spun out her yoyo and threw it, pulling herself to the tower and leaving him to follow after.

'Let's hope you're right..'

She paced back and forth, arguing with someone out of sight through the glowing purple mask around her eyes.

"Shut up, I know Chat took them somewhere. I don't know how, but- .... That doesn't prove anything, and you know it. ... I can beat you to a pulp with no one to stop me, willing or not! .. Sure, yeah, I'm threatening you! Try me then! I can keep the miraculous for myself and you wouldn't be able to get them from me! ... Of course you can't. Look, I can easily pluck this stupid flower out of my hair at any time and be done with you. You bet I won't? ... Leave me alone!"

At that, the mask dissipated, leaving an irritated Rosalie trotting around the room, her rose's stem lengthening and twisting around her, wrapping harmlessly around her neck and eyes, forming a choker and mask with blossoms decorating the sides.

"Sweetheart, could you possibly.. Um.. Untie us? We're at the tower already, and it's a bit cramped."

She flicked her hand over to her parents without a second beat and let them loose from their bonds. Returning to her irritation, She tugged on her loose hair and ducked her head down in frustration.

"Cataclysm!"

Her head swished to the noise, and watched at her vines crumbled into dead ashes around her, falling to the pavement far below. Behind the swiftly withering stems and leaves was Chat on his staff and... Ladybug?!

"What?! Who are you? Wha- what are you doing here? Why do you have my miraculous?!" She clenched her trembling fists in rage, giving them the strongest and foulest glare she could muster. Apparently it was good, according to their reactions.

"I-I'm Ladybird! Yeah, Ladybird, and I'm here to de-evilize you! And take your akuma, and get your sweet side back!"

She groaned, throwing her hand at them and tossing the seeds out. Unluckily, they both managed to dodge, winding them up on the tower with her.
