The Running Bear (Cat Noir x Reader)

Chapter 18: We Use The Power Of Dance To Avoid A Prison Sentence

"As you wish, ma reine." He bows to the guards. "Show's over! Sorry, no encore tonight!"

"And next time, think twice before putting your hands on me," Makwa growls at the guards.

Cat Noir sighs. I love it when she's intimidating.

Makwa's P.O.V.

We run into City Hall, staying vigilant in case there's more guards inside. As we make our way through the endless halls, we realize there's piles of unconscious people everywhere we look. 

But we both know there's only one woman who could've defeated over 100 guards with a yo-yo.

I raise an eyebrow at the piles we pass. "Wow. France hasn't seen this many piles of people since the bubonic plague."

"Too soon, Berry Bear."

I scoff. "It's been 663 years."

"Touche."

Suddenly, our ears perk up when we hear a loud commotion in the room down the hall to the right. We exchange glances and nod, drawing our weapons and prowling closer to the door. Once we reach it, we press against the wall on opposite sides of the door, listening. 

"Do you think this is the room the mayor's trapped in?" I whisper.

"Arrrgh! Get over here, you little shitass!"

"Chloe! Keep your head down!"

"Ugh, this is ridiculous! Utterly ridiculous! My butt is starting to hurt!"

"Chloe! Please listen to Ladybug! And Ladybug, please help us!"

I sigh. "Yup, that's them." 

Cat Noir tightens the grip on his staff. "We're going in on three, two..."

"Wait, we need a-"

"One!"

He kicks down the door, his staff drawn. "Well well, if it isn't Battle Angel Alita and Robocop."

I sigh. Always on the move.

Striding into the room, I point a dagger at the two villains, the other shielding Chloe and the mayor. "Let these two go. Surrender your akumas to us now."

Please, Mom. I don't want to fight you.

Order viciously sneers. "Don't be so stupid, little Makwa." 

Hearing Dad's nickname for me spat from a vicious villain's mouth sends chills down my spine. 

She claps her hands together and summons two steel bars, pointing one at Ladybug and Cat Noir. "You little brats should know your place, and know we're going to finish you off nice and easy." 

She points the other at me. "But you...you're coming with us."

Ladybug glares at them. "What do you want with Makwa?"

Order devilishly grins. "None of your business, insect."

I step forward. "What does Hawk Moth want with me?"
