"It's no use! They just keep coming!" Volpina shouted, knocking an akuma victim to the ground with her flute.

"Hawkmoth's been busy," Ladybug muttered. "Lucky Charm!"

It was a teapot. For the second time, she knew what it meant.

"We've got to get to Master Fu!" she called to her companions.

"We've got to run!" Chat Noir answered, trying to shield himself from a particularly nasty akuma victim's storm of razor-sharp blades. "We can't do anything!"

"So we're giving up?" Carapace said.

"I'm with Chat," Queen Bee said, ducking a swipe from an akuma victim.

"I'm with Ladybug," Volpina retorted.

"Wait," Ladybug interrupted, before Volpina could continue. "What if we run, but we send our kwamis to Master Fu?"

The heroes shared a look.

"I guess we have to," Chat said. "Let's find somewhere safer."

'Somewhere safer' turned out to be Chat's bathroom. After locking the door, they all detransformed.

"What about the akumas?" Tikki said immediately.

"That's why we need your help," Marinette told all the kwamis. "My Lucky Charm is telling me to go to Master Fu's, but we've got to run. We were wondering if you could go find him and ask him for help."

"Sure thing," Tikki answered. "I'm not sure how fast help'll come, though."

"Anything is enough," Adrien said. "Just make sure it comes."

Tikki nodded. All five kwamis flew straight through the door.

"Do you think they'll manage it?" Alya asked, worried.

"I'm sure they will," Marinette said, but she wasn't completely certain.

*****Tikki*****

"Master Fu!" Tikki called as she and the other kwamis zoomed in.

He turned to them, worried. "I know. Come with me."

They hurried into another room. It was almost entirely bare, except for a tall mirror framed in quartz standing on the far wall.

"Beyond this mirror is an alternate reality," he said. "Go through the mirror. You must find the seven miraculous holders of that dimension. They will not be ready, so do not reveal yourself to them. Whatever you do, there is only one rule: do not , under any  circumstance, touch yourself. You may see and speak to your alternate self, but no physical contact in any way. Oh, and one more thing. You might encounter someone else on the other side of that mirror. Bring her back with you."

Tikki nodded, trying to keep it all straight.

"Now go!" Master Fu said, pointing at the mirror. "Your charges need you!"

The five kwamis flew towards the mirror. In a flash of white light, they were gone.

**********

So! The heroes are on the run while their kwamis have embarked on a dangerous mission to help them! What's on the other side of the mirror? Where will they find the seven miraculous holders of the other world? Who will they meet that Master Fu wants them to bring back?

I hope this fanfic turns out to be good because I've had this idea in my head for a little while.

See you!
