He stood in her balcony, the wind tugging his hair. Adrien held her earrings in his palm. He had spoken to Master Fu earlier. Now that they had recovered the moth miraculous from Felix's hands he was to return all the miraculouses.
But before he did, he was to speak as Chat Noir at Marinette's funeral. The whole city of Paris was in mourning, after their beloved hero had passed.
Felix had been taken into custody, and was awaiting trial.
Sassha, Cassie, and Vex had disappeared into thin air. As if they had never existed.
When he had awoke he found Alya and Nino weeping as they kneeled next to Marinette.
He still remembered how strangely angelic she looked. lying on the tile floor, with her hair splayed out. The two miraculouses held tightly within her hands.
She had given her life for him, despite knowing the consequences.
Perhaps one day he would be able to look himself in the mirror, and not see what a cool he had been. If only he had been faster, or stronger. If instead he had lunged for Felix instead of Ladybug. If he had only done something different.
Maybe then, she'd still be alive. Maybe then he wouldn't be where he was today; cursing himself everyday. If only he could find a way to end the pain.
He clenched the earrings tightly, letting them dig into his skin. He looked back down at the street below, at the cars passing silently. For a quick second he could almost see himself jumping.
"Hey Adrien?" Alya asked, opening the trapdoor behind him. "You coming?"
"Yeah."
