Found in Twilight: A Miraculous Match

The Separation of Ladybug and Chat Noir

Adrien had very little time left in Paris when he met with Master Fu. His train was leaving in just a couple of hours.

"Master... Did you know that my father was Hawk Moth when you gave me the miraculous?" Adrien had to ask this question first. If Master Fu had known, it altered their relationship, changing the way Adrien thought about his time as Chat Noir.

"No, Adrien. I didn't know Hawk Moth's identity until I saw the reports on the Ladyblog. When you helped me up and got my cane, I knew you were someone who was brave, selfless, kind and determined. I saw a young man who was willing to help others before helping himself. I know those qualities were needed to defeat Hawk Moth, and I was right... I am, however, sorry for the pain you are going through because of this."

"What do you want me to do?" Adrien asked, hoping his time as a superhero wasn't over yet. "I have to live in London until my birthday and that's three months. Do you want me to keep the ring? Do you want me to give it back to you? I've already told Ladybug I was thinking about giving it back permanently."

"Yes... She came to me that night." Master Fu admitted with a somber shake of his head.

"Do you want me to give it back? I mean, if my father was a villain, I could turn into one too..." Adrien's voice wavered as he glanced at himself in the mirror behind Master Fu. All he could see were the similarities between himself and his father.

Master Fu thoughtfully drank his tea. "Plagg, what do you think?" he asked, turning to the black cat kwami. Plagg was sitting with Wayzz, they were holding their own discussion about the events.

"I think I should stay with Adrien. I've never had a Chat Noir as nice and kind as Adrien. He is going to need a friend during this time."

"Master, no offense to Plagg, but Adrien needs a caring friend." Wayzz shot a glance at Plagg, "What if while Master Adrien is away, Ladybug and Chat Noir switched miraculous? That way Adrien would have Tikki who is much more compassionate and understanding."

"Hey!" Plagg exclaimed, as Adrien tried to restrain a chuckle.

Master Fu took another sip of his tea. "I don't know how Ma... Um, Ladybug would take that. Plus, we currently know the brooch is in Paris. If someone has it and starts using it, we will need the cleaning power of Ladybug."

"Then Adrien can use the Horse miraculous and transport home... here. Kaalki would love to be out and about with Tikki." Wayzz stated.

Master Fu turned and looked at Adrien. "How do you feel about this?"

Adrien was thinking everything through. "I mean it's only three months. Maybe we should try it, if Ladybug is willing. How soon can we talk to her about it? I only have about an hour before I have to leave."

"Wayzz"

"Yes, Master." And the tiny turtle flew out of the window.

Master Fu turned away from the window and back to Adrien. "Does anyone else know you are leaving?"

"My friend Marinette. She's the only one I've told."

Master Fu, tapped a finger against his teacup, "Marinette you say..." and he smiled, thinking of her.

"Do you know her?" Adrien asked, intrigued at Master Fu's familiarity with the brilliant Marinette.

"I, um... am familiar with all the people Ladybug has given a miraculous to, including Marinette who was the holder of the Mouse Miraculous."

"I had forgotten about that." Adrien reminisced about Kwamibuster, and how without Marinette, they wouldn't have beaten the akuma and released the kwamis.
