The MIRACULOUS Next Generation

Chapter # 44 An astray Kitten.

Emma Agreste and her twin friends Sara and Jaden Lahiffe were walking down a street talking animatedly to themselves.

"I told you Ladybug is way cooler than Chat Noir," Jaden boosted.

"I don't think so, Chat Noir is much more cooler." Sara countered.

Emma was listening to her friend's daily banter on 'the cooler superhero' of Paris.

she rolled her eyes as they continued to throw remarks at each other.

she heard a noise coming from a nearby alley.

Emma's curious nature got the better of her and she left her friends to investigate the source of the noise.

"buddy, come here," for a moment she contemplated the mysterious voice was addressing her.

she looked around and saw a figure sitting on the dirty floor facing the far end wall.

she was startled by a noise that sounded like a sneeze.

"Hey, come here, you're making it worse!" the voice said annoyed, and it sounded oddly familiar.

she cleared her throat catching the attention of the person sitting cross-legged on the floor.

"What are you doing here?" the person looked at her brushing his brown locks from his forehead.

"I can ask you the same question,"

"before you ask, I am going to answer anyway." he motioned to the corner again.

Emma stood there as he walked towards the box, she craned her neck to look inside the article.

"I was just trying to get him out." black ears of a cat peeked from the box.

"but you see---" he was cut off by a sneeze, " I am allergic to cats." he wiped his nose.

Emma gazed at the yellow eyes of a kitten, they were beautiful and his fur was pitch black as she looked into his yellowish eyes she was reminded of another person with the same cat-like eyes but in emerald in color. she was comforted by the mere thought of those eyes.

She looked at Flint who was looking hopelessly at the small kitten as he tried to hold his sneeze.

"let me," she walked towards the kitten and picked him up with ease as he meowed in response.

"Oh my god!" the small kitten had a huge gash on his left paw from which the blood was seeping and strained her fingers.

"I forgot to give you a little detail," he picked a plastic bag and pulled out the bandages and an anti-bacterial salve which he bought from a convenience store. "here," he handed them to her.

Emma cleaned the wound and bandaged it.

"it's all done," Flint set a food can in front of the kitten.

"So, now what?" she asked, "he might need someone to take care of him,"

"I know," Flint shook his head, "but I don't think I can keep this little guy,"

she bit her lip thinking, she can't leave a little kitty in a dark alley, "I can keep him, only if you allow,"

Flint grinned at her, "Thanks, Agreste Jr."

"No problem," she gave him a bright smile.

"Where are my friends?" Emma ran outside the alley.

"Emma!" the twins approached her with worried expression etched on their faces, "Where were you?"

"Nowhere,"

"What is that?" Jaden gazed at the little kitten in her arms cautiously.

"It's a kitten, Jaden."

"I can't believe you can be that dimwitted, that you can't even recognize a feline," the twins were now aware of Flint's presence.

"What are you doing here, Joseph?" Jaden narrowed his dark eyes at the teen model. "shouldn't you be with your girlfriend?"

"Jealous, Lahiffe?" Flint smirked riling him up.

"you wish, Joseph,"

"will you guys please shut up," Sara scolded them, "Emma where did you found this little guy?"

"I didn't,"

"I found him in the alley this morning," he reminisced finding him as Chat Noir, while on his morning stroll, "I should leave," the girls waved him goodbye.

"You do know black cats are said to be unlucky," Jaden said catching their attention.

"I wouldn't go there if I were you, Jaden," Emma said in a calm voice, she does not like her friend believing in such creeds.

"I don't think it's true either," Sara stroked the kitten's black fur.

"Hey, look!" they looked where Sara was pointing at.

a red ladybug was sitting on the nose of the black kitten that tickled his nose and made him sneeze.

the girls giggled at him while Jaden smiled.

"you know what that means?" they both looked confused, "the kitten is lucky for you, now that lady of luck has approved of it,"

"I am feeling so lucky right now," Emma smiled sarcastically.

"Well, You should,"
