Miraculous Hood

Chat Noir

[Marinette POV]

I fidgeted with my silver heart-shaped locket around my neck, sitting beside Sheriff Theo as my coach rode into Paris, my home.

I was sent away to a royal academy in one of our allying kingdoms, China.

There were only little girls and women in the academy, but I met plenty of men when I sneaked out of my dorm. Most of them were stupid and pushy, but there were a few where they were kind and considerate.

Let's just say... that men aren't on my good side.

Suddenly, the coach came to a quick stop.

"What's going on?" I asked Sheriff Theo.

"Stay in here and me and my men will check it out!" he told me.

I glared at him and crossed my arms with a pout.

Sheriff Theo hopped out of the coach and shut the door.

I sighed frustratingly.

Just because I'm a lady doesn't mean I can't do anything!!

THUD!!

The coach shook a little.

I peeked out of the window to see that Sheriff Theo and the guards were glaring above the coach.

I wondered what, or who, was up there.

"Keep your hands behind your head and come down slowly," Sheriff Theo commanded whoever was up there threateningly.

"Is that the way to greet your old pal?!" whoever was on the roof of the coach, most likely a man my age, asked casually.

Old pal?

"We were never pals!!!!" Sheriff Theo shouted at the mysterious man.

"What's wrong, Sheriff? You're unusually cheerful today!!" the mysterious man joked, making Sheriff Theo's face fill with rage.

"STOP STALLING!!!!" he shouted.

"Calm down there, Sheriff! I just need to do one more thing before you drag me to the dungeons to rot for the rest of my days!!!" the mysterious man told Sheriff Theo dramatically.

"What is that?" Sheriff Theo questioned suspiciously.

"This..."

FWEEEEEEEEEET!!

Suddenly, multiple men and women ran at Sheriff Theo and the guards with weapons and other items.

There was a woman with brown skin, fierce hazel eyes, and brown hair with white tips in a high ponytail.

She wore an orange shirt with white on the stomach, orange pants, a pair of knee-high black combat boots with orange soles and black fox paw print markings on the bottom, black elbow-length gloves, an orange mask with a white bottom half and a black mark above each eye, two orange fox ears with white insides, black tips, and black edges are attached to the top of her head, an orange sash around her waist with a sharp white end, an orange fox-tail pendant with a white end, and an orange-and-white flute in her hand.

She kinda looked like a fox.

There was another woman with pale skin with freckles around her nose, calm yellow-brown eyes, and short dark blue hair swept to the left with light blue reflections.

She wore a red shirt with the image of a black dragon's tail, outlined in yellow, curling from her left side up to her to her chest and the end of the tail curves around a symbol containing the images that represent three elements: lightning, air, and water, red pants, black knee-high combat boots, black forearm-length gloves, a red mask around her eyes with yellow and black outlining at the base of the sides, four red dragon-like horns with yellow tips with black outlining, a black choker with red lines going vertically in the middle of the black ball, and a sword with a red handle with the same symbol that was on her chest on the handle of the sword was in her hands.
