When the Cat Met the Wolf

8. Of Past & Future

"What was that?!" questioned Loup d'Argent from the floor, where she had landed on her stomach. Ladybug was about to reply, but then they heard cheers and both heroes walked to the balcony in front of them. Down below, their classmates were cheering for Alex in her bet with Kim earlier that day "Did that just happen?" asked the girl once more, in disbelief.

Had they really travelled back in time?

Timebreaker stood on the wall, and looked down, until she spotted her watch, still safe, since Chloe hadn't dropped it yet.

"My watch!" exclaimed Timebreaker, jumping down.

"Chloe!" yelled Ladybug, waving her arms up in the air to call her attention "Put the watch down!"

When Timebreaker landed, Chloe, out of fear, dropped the watch, so it ended up breaking anyway.

"Ladybug, this time it's your fault!" exclaimed Timebreaker, pointing towards Ladybug "I need more energy. I gotta go further back in time" as she said this, Alex from the past saw the watch and, said, with tears in her eyes:

"Ladybug! It's all Ladybug's fault!"

"Everyone, get out of here!" ordered Ladybug "Don't let her touch you!" that being said, everyone ran in opposite directions, leaving only Timebreaker and Alex.

 Loup landed on the park, but Ladybug stayed behind, because Marinette from the past had seen her.

As she did that, some meters away from Timebreaker 1 and 2, Arianne from the past saw her, and asked:

"Who are you?" Loup saw her, and approached her.

"Okay, this is gonna sound extremely confusing" she started to say "But I'm you, for some minutes in the future" 

"Is that even possible?" questioned Arianne 2.

"It's the truth!" Ayu spoke up, floating in front of them "I can feel that she's you"

"What is going on?" questioned Arianne 2 confused.

"It's very complicated" replied Loup patiently "But don't worry, I can handle this, you should go back home and..."

"Practice, I know" replied Arianne.

"I was gonna say 'pack'" informed the wolf, 'causing Arianne two to look at her confused.

"What for?"

"Because you are going to pay a visit to Jazmin and Thiago" replied the girl. When the impossible happened, and she travelled back in time, she decided that she definitely needed a break "You need some time off, and it's coming from me, who is you, so you should listen to yourself"

"But...I can't, I have to practice, and..." Loup grabbed her from the shoulder to stop her from talking.

"Your brain is fried" she said "You've been practicing the same song for one hour non-stop, and you don't even need to have it ready for Saturday" her eyes caught Chat Noir jumping from building to building, and she looked back at Arianne 2 "You need to leave. Chat Noir can't know who we are" Arianne nodded, and went off "And remember, take a break!"

Chat Noir landed behind her, just as Arianne disappeared behind a building. Loup was extremely happy to see him there, alright and not frozen, and would have hugged him, but it would probably be uncomfortable and confusing, so she didn't.

"Chat Noir! We have to capture her Akuma, your life depends on it!" she went straight to the point.

"Which life?" questioned the cat confidently "I've got nine!" she rolled her eyes.
