A Sudden Return 3/3✅

Miraculous Ladybug: 24

"Sabrina, are you crying?"

Sabrina gulped as she quickly wiped away her tears. "No, I'm not." I can't let her know Lucas hurt me. She's going to probably laugh in my face, or make me feel worse.

Her mom didn't press the question any further. She was sure she saw the tears, but if her daughter decided to hide it from her, then she didn't care.

Sabrina sighed as she heard the door closing as soon her mom left.

What's wrong with you, Lucas?

Deciding that crying on her bed wasn't going to do anything, she hopped out of it.

Um, I wonder why I didn't get akumatized. Those were a lot of tears that came out. How come... Has Hawk Moth given up?

She stepped out of her small house and wandered around Paris. That's when she caught sight of Lucas, who kicked a bouncy Ball at a boy's face.

"What was that for!" The boy yelled as Lucas laughed. He turned to run off, but then he saw Sabrina.

Why would Lucas do that just now? This is so not him!

Lucas didn't come to her though, like she had expected. Instead he looked away, walking away from her with no words or anything.

Even though Sabrina knew what he had done the other day, she still wished he would have come over. Maybe talk to her what had happened, why he had suddenly changed.

I feel so hurt right now, but I'm still so surprised that I'm not getting akumatized. Hawk Moth must have really given up. So if he gave up, does that mean... No more Ladybug and Cat Noir?

-

"Where's the stupid miraculous!" One of the men yelled as he searched around again. "Ugh! What if that Ladybug lied to us?!"

Suddenly the heard the sound of police cars coming over. The biggest man in the three of them yelled out that they should run.

As the men made their moves to run away before the police caught them, they felt themselves being tied up with a yoyo.

"Going somewhere?" Ladybug smirked.

The men realized they had made a mistake ever believing Ladybug with her words. The police took them to jail.

-

He looked up. Three other men were thrown behind the bars that were right next to his. He recognized those men quickly as the ones that had also been helping Hawk Moth.

They failed too?

This made him feel even more angry and betrayed. He screamed in pain and anger, and Hawk Moth heard his cries.

There is too much going on now. All my men are been captured. Matthew isn't here yet. I've captured Alya, and and there is a broken heart. Which do I start first.

Matthew, you must find me my Moth Miraculous. There are people waiting to be akumatized. Do this before it's too late!

Matthew came running over to him. He fell as he tried to catch his breath. Hawk Moth had sent him the location of where he was. Finally he knew where the secret spot was.

"Alya has told me where Chloe is," Hawk Moth pointed at the girl who was still being tied up, but eyes shut. "We're going together, as this is where my miraculous might also be. Bring Alya along. She's going to be our bait!..."

Matthew nodded as he took Alya along, following Hawk Moth as he led the way.

-

Chloe was running out of breath. She had eaten as apple an hour ago, but that's all she had put in her mouth today. She continued to glare at Master Fu, who wandered around, trying to figure out where the other needles were.

A knock came out the door. Master Fu, thinking it was someone like Marinette, rushed to open it.

"Marinette, I'm still..." He was suddenly pushed to the floor as he wasn't able to finish his sentence.

He tried to get up, but someone held him down. He looked up to see Matthew's angry figure.

"Finally, you guys are here!" Chloe yelled as Hawk Moth tried his best to set her free. "What took you all so long?! Look how I'm sweating!"

Hawk Moth didn't care about a single thing she said as he finally got electric bars to turn off, and lifted the sack off of her.

She stretched, enjoying as Master Fu was pinned to the floor, unable to get up. "Ha! A taste of revenge!"

Finally Hawk Moth noticed the black box on the floor. He reached for it, but was unable to open it as it required the password. But soon he forgot all about that, as soon as he saw the miraculous he had been longing for, on the table.

Chloe picked it up and handed it to him. Taking off the peacock miraculous, he put on his own miraculous.

"Be prepared... Cause Hawk Moth is back!"

Yes, I know, Hawk Moth was supposed to be called Le Paon when he had on the peacock miraculous, but I just wanted to call him Hawk Moth.
