Chapter 1, Part 1

LB & CN- "Pound it!"
*beep beep*
CN- "Sorry M'lady, but I must disappear before I transform back."
LB- "Oh, you'd hate that, haha."
CN- "Well, for your information I'm doing you a favour, because once you see me without my mask...you wouldn't be able to resist me."
LB- "Doubt it, anyway. See you soon cat noir."
CN- "For sure."

*at Marinette's house*
M- "Spots off."
*detransforms and throws herself on her bed*
M- "phew, home at last!"
T- "I know, that fight would've lasted at least the second half of the day!"
M- "hehe, I'm just glad we made everything right and brought everything back to normal."
T- "for now, I mean. It'll only be a short amount of time before hawkmoth will strike again with another akuma!"
M- "yeah, you're right."
T- *giggles* "come on, it's time to complete your homework!"
M- "ugh, homework. The one thing I am never looking forward to when I come home."
T- "you'll be right, I promise."

*at the Agreste mansion*
G- "where were you?"
A- "I was just out with a few friends, that's all."
G- "I suppose your friends were the ones that gave you cuts and scratches?"
A- "no! We were just hanging out and playing a small game, then I hurt myself."
G- *see's the ring* "hm, I feel like you're lying to me...is that correct?"
A- "no father! I-I promise."
G- "hm" *walks off*
P- "woah, that was a close one...hey, are you alright kiddo?"
A- "yeah, I'm fine. Thanks Plagg."
*Adrien lays down of his bed*
P- *sighs* "I'm sure everything will be fine kiddo, besides, you've got me and all my cheese buddies!"
A- "haha, thanks Plagg."

*the next day at school*
*bell rings*
Ms.B- "have a great lunch everyone and don't forget to finish your homework that must be ready for tomorrow."
M- "ok, I'm gonna do it. I'm gonna talk to him."
Alya- "yes! Go for it! Don't hold back!"
*Marinette walks over to Adrien*
M- "H-heyyyyynnnnoooooppppe!"
*Marinette runs back and hides behind Alya*
*Alya gives Marinette the "seriously?" Look*
M- "hehe, well...I talked to him...sort of, hehe"
A- *face palm* "seriously girl? You legit just walked up to him, went to say hey, then ran off!"
M- "hey, it's not as easy as it seems, I mean, I don't know why I just, stutter all over him."
A- "well you're gonna have to talk to him one way or another."
M- "hehe, you're right, one day I will, I promise...just, that one day is not today."
A- *face palms* "seriously?"
*bang*
A- "woah! What on earth was that?!"
M- "I-I don't know."
Akumatized victim- "where is Chloe?!"
M- "why am I not surprised?"
A.V- "I said, where is Chloe Bourgeois?!" *hits down the side of a building*
M- "ahh Alya, I have to go!" *runs off*
A- "no! Marinette!"
Ms. B- "everyone inside!"
*Adrien sneaks off*
P- "another Akuma attack? Seriously, didn't we just end one yesterday? I want cheese and I'm too hungry to think about akumatized victims."
A- "Plagg stop thinking about your stomach and stop complaining. It's time to save the city...Plagg, class out!"
P- *sighs* "please not agaaaiiiinnn!"

*meanwhile*
M- "why was I not surprised that there were another akumatized victim looking for Chloe?"
T- "why do you think?" *giggles*
M- "true, anyway. It's time to transform! Tikki, spots on!"

A.V- "Chloe! Where are you!"
CN- "picking on innocent ones are we?"
LB- "innocent? Since when has Chloe ever been innocent?"
CN- "well believe it or not, she has been a few times."
LB- "and you know this how?"
CN & LB- "lookout!"
A.V- *throws a car at them*
CN- "well somebody's mad that they can't use a car because of their size."
LB- *face palms*

A.V- "enough talk, let's fight!"
LB- "gladly!" *attacks with her yo-yo*
A.V- *attacks with his sword*
CN- "woah, where'd you get a samurai sword like that? I want one."
LB- *dodges a sword swing* "he's like a super trained ninja...hm, where could his Akuma be?"
A.V- "have fun trying to find it." *attacks*
LB & CN- *fight back*
LB- "his sword belt! Maybe you can use your cataclysm on that stone wall over there so he can get trapped and I can snatch his bag!"
CN- "how do you know that the akuma would be in his sword belt?"
LB- "notice how he is wearing all black and the belt is the only different coloured one?"
CN- "ah yes! Great work M'lady...Cataclysm!" *runs along the stone wall causing it to break and fall*
A.V- "No! Ah!"
LB- *walks over to the pile of stones* "we've got you now." *goes to grab the victim* "wait, what?"
CN- "ladybug, lookout!" *pulls ladybug out of the way*
LB- "woah, thanks cat, but how did he move out of the way so quickly?"
CN- "well his a ninja obviously."
LB- "hm, I think it's time to bring out the charm...lucky charm! Pepper spray?"
CN- "well, think of something."
LB- "that's it! You go and use this in his eyes. Then, I'll run behind him while he's distracted and snatch his sword belt!" *passes cat the pepper spray*
CN- "great thinking M'lady!"
*runs at him and holds up the can*
A.V- "you can't hurt me. I'm like a soldier as a ninja, nothing can stop me!"
CN- "oh yeah? Well, here's a little joke for you! What is a soldier who has survived mustard gas and pepper spray?"
*everyone stands there while ladybug face palms*
CN- "a seasoned veteran! Hahaaaa!" *runs at the ninja and sprays his eyes*
A.V- "Ah! My eyes!"
LB- "stupid choice in words but, great job kitty."
CN- "thanks M'lady."
LB- *runs behind the victim and grabs his sword belt and breaks it* "no more evil doing for you little akuma...time to de-evilize! Gotcha! Bye bye little butterfly. Miraculous ladybug!"
CN- "great job M'lady."
LB- "hehe, thanks."
A.V- "woah, what happened?"
LB- "you were akumatized but it's ok now, everything's solved."
A.V- "thank you ladybug, thank you cat noir." *walks off*

CN- "ya know, if you're not doing anything later tonight, we could always hang out, 7 o'clock? What do ya say?"
LB- "I would love to but I'm kinda busy tonight, sorry."
CN- "oh it's fine. No worries, another time?"
LB- "definitely, see you around."
CN- "bye M'lady." *runs off*
