Her footsteps sounded louder with each step as she walked closer and closer towards the black cat. She heavily sighed to herself, why does Alya have to be such a troublemaker? Cat noir smiled to himself before jumping out in front of Marinette, raising his knife at her, "ahhhh!!!!", yelled the ravenette and immediately punched him in the face.

"Argh!", he groaned, his hand covering where she hit him. Chat looked up at the frightened ravenette, "What the h*ll!? I wasn't actually going to stab you!" Marinette cupped her mouth with her hands, "y-your Cat noir.."
The black cat got up, rubbing his cheek. Where'd she learn to hit so hard!?

Marinette started backing away slowly, "I-I'm so s-sorry, please don't hurt me...I didn't mean to-I won't tell the police..." Chat stood up, wiping off the dirt the from his leather suit. "Don't think I'm letting you off that easily princess." He looked up at her, giving her a seductive smile. He picked up his knife and placed it back into his pocket, walking slowly towards Marinette, did he just call me... 'princess'?

"Listen...I just want to go home, I-my parents will get mad if....", she got paused between her words as Chat grabbed her waist, the ravenette started blushing, feeling his warmth. "Your parents will get mad? They won't get upset if they don't find out", he smiled a bit.

Marinette took in a deep breath and removed his hands from her waist, knowing she was going to regret it. "I'm sorry, but you have no right to touch me, I find it disrespectful. Now if you can excuse me, I have to get back home ", she said looking straight into his eyes. Cat noir lifted his hands up, signaling he'd stop. "If that's what you prefer."

A small smile curved on his lips, the ravenette lifted up a curious eyebrow, "Why are you smiling at me?" The black cat tilted his head a bit, "it's not too often I come across women like you, women who know how to stand up for themselves and not let others take advantage of them. Somewhat daring of you too, knowing your face to face with one of the most wanted criminals of Paris, The leader of The Miraculers. That he can do anything he wants to a helpless girl like you..whenever he pleases."

Chat's smile then disappeared into a frown, staring at her blankly. "Anything he wants...", but this time he sounded serious. He stepped back and grabbed his baton. "I just wanted to remind you how capable I can be sometimes...well, jusqu' à la prochaine fois...princesse~" he smirked. (Translation: until next time...princess~)

Cat noir extended his baton and left, leaving the stunned ravenette alone. The cold breeze swept by her delicate skin, causing her to shiver. I should go head home, I don't know how much longer I can stand being out here, especially not after what just happened. Does...does he tend to hurt me? I never meant to cause any trouble..I just don't like being touched.

Marinette shrugged the negative thoughts away and continued a different path back home, she tried forgetting about his words, "I just wanted to remind you how capable I can be sometimes..." the ravenette finally arrived home, luckily the back door was still unlocked so she quietly creeped inside. Marinette sighed of relief and closed the door behind her, well at least mom and dad won't find out about Alya.

The whole living room was dark, meaning her parents are still probably delivering somewhere else. The ravenette sighed in relief again, but all of a sudden, a loud click was heard, someone switched on the lights. There, Tom stood in the middle of the living room with his arms crossed over his chest, while Sabine stood near the light switch with a disappointed face.

"Where have you've been? Me and your mother have been worried sick about you! I specifically told you to stay here and don't go out doing heaven knows what!?", yelled Tom. Sabine ran over and cupped her daughter's face in her hands, examining her to make sure she was ok. "Marinette we trusted you! We told you to stay here. Where did you go and why?", frowned her mother. The ravenette looked around the room, trying to come up with an excuse.

"I-I...I just went to take out the trash, and then I saw Alya, she said she needed me to help her with something at her house, but it was really important!", lied Marinette. Tom shook his head, "we called her parents already, they said Alya never invited you over, and I took out the trash earlier. Marinette I want you to tell us the honest truth, we are your parents and we deserve to know the truth. If not, your grounded."

Sabine nodded in agreement, she looked down and noticed a square outline from the ravenette's back pocket. "What's this?", she curiously asked as she reached over to the object. "What?", asked Marinette.

Her mother pulled out a gray box from her pocket, "what's in here?", asked Sabine looking up at her. Tom walked over, he noticed the box too. Marinette jumped a bit, "I-I-that isn't mine, how did it end up in my my pocket?" Mari's father took the box from his wife's hand, he slowly opened the box, and gasped.

Chat jumped through his room's window, well Adrien's. He de-transformed, no longer Cat noir, but Adrien Agreste. Plagg swirled out from his ring, "what was that all about?" The blonde boy sat down on his couch, "what was what?"

The small cat eye rolled at him, "don't play dumb with me, what was that all about with that girl? And why did you give her the ring! Idiot!" Adrien leaned back and sighed, "relax, I'll just steal another one, my plan of scaring her didn't work, so I tried a different technique, that's all."

Plagg sat on one of the couch's arms, "But did you really mean what you said back there?", asked the curious cat. Adrien looked out the window, "does it matter? I don't even know the girl." Plagg gave him a confused look, "yet you gave her an expensive and stolen ring that wasn't even meant for her!" The blonde boy smirked at his stubborn kwami, "I'm rich Plagg, I can just buy another one. Chloe's birthday is in two days, we'll be fine."

Adrien got up and walked towards the bathroom, leaving the door open for Plagg, he grabbed his toothbrush and turned on the faucet, letting the water soak his brush. The small cat floated next to him, eating a piece of Camembert, "so why did we have to steal the ring in the first place?" Adrien turned off the faucet and squeezed a bottle of toothpaste, allowing a bit of the paste to fall onto his toothbrush. "What? I can't have a little fun?",he smiled.

The blonde boy began brushing his teeth, while his kwami just decided he'd leave the bathroom. "This boy", mumbled Plagg.
