Even in an Alternate Lifetime

Where it all Began ~ Part III

"Hurry Marinette, it's time to transform. The words are 'Tikki, Spots On' and the guide should be in your bug-phone! You can do this," she replied quickly.

"Thanks Tikki. Tikki, Spots on!" I shouted.

Adrien's POV:

  As I opened the mysterious box, a bright light shines from within it. Suddenly, a black figure flew out from the box.

"Woah, that's sick! What are you? A genie?" I asked the mysterious creature.

"No. Even better, a kwami. Genies are lame compared to moi. I grant you the power of destruction, when you wear this ring," the kwami answered in a cocky tone.

"What's that? What do you mean by 'you grant me' the power of destruction? Why couldn't you choose my friend Nino, instead?"

"Ptf, that would be a death threat," he said, laughing.

"Hey, watch it!" I reply, defending Nino.

"I'm Plagg, nice of you to ask. Not that you asked, but I hope you're aware about the fact that I love cheese and all delicious stinky food. Anyways, you're now a superhero of Paris, which by the way you fight alongside your partner, Ladybug. You cannot, what so ever tell anyone about your identity; unless you want to jeopardize your family. Finally, the transformation words are, 'Plagg, Claws Out' and everything else is in a guide on your baton," Plagg finished saying, out of breath.

"That's a lot to take in-" I get cut off by the news playing on my computer.

"Don't be Bemused, it's Just the News! This is Nadia Chamack, and on today's news we have a villain taking over Paris. According to what's being shown on screen right now, everyone's being hypnotized! If you're to be touched by-" Nadia began before being interrupted.

"Nadia! That's no way of speaking about me. You looked stressed, how about we hug it all out, hm?" said Hypnotizer.

"I can recognize that voice, anywhere. Ugh, obviously that dumb bitch got turned into a villain. Although she deserves it, I have to help her, don't I?" I asked Plagg with a pout.

"Don't look at me, kid. If you want, I can cataclysm her whenever you'd like," he replied with a smirk.

"What do you mean by...cataclysm?" I asked the kwami, confused.

"Talk to me when you've found out. Now, go save Paris, kid," he said, ending the conversation.

"Plagg, Claws Out!" I shouted.

"AHhHHHHhh!" yelled Ladybug, in fear.

"Woah! Gotcha," shouted Chat Noir, as he caught her from falling out of the sky. He never imagined this to be the way he met his partner, but it sure was compulsive.

"Sorry! I'm still trying to get the hang of this," she replied, flustered.

"No sweat, clumsy girl. So, you're Ladybug? he began to ask, not letting Ladybug answer. "I'm Chat Noir. Yeah, Chat Noir."

"Well, nice to meet you. I still feel uncertain about the whole 'superhero of Paris' thing, you?" asked the lady in red.

"Honestly, I think I look insanely good in this costume. I think I'll get used to it," he began. "We should find a way to stop that villain soon, though. Before it causes some kind of catastrophe"

"Right," replied Ladybug, quickly. She's never felt so flustered around a guy before, but Chat Noir seemed to be the one who can make that feeling spark.
