"AAAAHHH!" You yelled as you tripped down the small flight of stairs. You tumbled forward, eyes widening, you quickly cover you head as you roll down the concrete stairs, your backpack slightly helping with the fall. Small 'Oofs' and 'ow's' could be heard inside. And as soon as it started you stopped. You released your head and let your limbs spread out as you groaned out in pain.

"AHAHAHAHAHAHAH! Look everyone! The klutz fell!" A mocking french-like voice spoke. Laughter filled the area, well, more like two voices laughing, the rest were silent.

"Bloody hell, that hurt." You mumble, in English so no one could understand you obviously, and just continued to lay there. Soon a face covered the sun making you squint at the sudden change in light.

"Are you alright Aurthor?" A cool voice asked, Nino. You had become friends with everyone instantly, but Nino was one of your best friends mostly because of your same interests.

"Yeah, just didn't expect it." In reality you did it on purpose, but that was for a whole different reason. Nino chuckled.

"You going to just continue laying there?" He asked with an amused smirk and held out a hand to you. Taking it gratefully he pulled you up. Least to say a few bones popped in protest.

"Okay, ow." You say holding your back, then pushing it, giving a few more pops. "Ah~ better. Now then." You say and look over to Chloe. You don't know what her problem is, she just doesn't like you, even though you don't talk to her or mess with anything of hers. Although it could have to do with you being better friends with Adrien than her. She was still laughing, along with Sabrina her 'friend', and you....

You just walked off, Nino following you. What? You think you were going to fight her? Talk back to her? Hell no, that's not how you roll. No, you just ignore her comments, it normally works since you just block her out, which annoys her to no end.

"HAHAH! I win again! 17 to 3, you really suck at this game Nino, you need to step up your game. Or just get a better team." You say with a joking smirk as you beat Nino once more in a Pokemon battle. You and him were playing Pokemon ORAS, with a few X and Y pokemon on each other's team.

"Hey, don't hate on my awesome team! Besides, it not fair, you have an awesome team that you used throughout your entire journey!" He argued.

"Ya, but you also, not only have perfect IV's, EV trained yours, but also breed them for the right nature. It's better just to accept the pokemon you have, no matter their stats."

"Hey! I-"

"Hey Nino, Aurthor!" A new voice said, cutting Nino off. You glanced over to see Adrien walking over to the two of you.

"Hey Adrien." You said with a chill smile and closed your 3DS, after saving of course, and putting it into your backpack.

"Hey dude." Nino said, keeping his out, "What are you doing here?" He asked.

"Photoshoot for the next issue of this magazine my dad's got me working on." He said scratching his neck nervously. "What are you two up to?"

"Hanging out." You stated simply and stood with a stretch. "Although I got to head out now, homework I need to do, chores that I don't want to do, yada yada. You know." You shrug your backpack on. " The usual. Chow guys." You said, tripping over a rock, and catching yourself before you truly fell.

"You okay?" You heard Adrien ask and chuckled nervously.

"Yeah, see ya guys." You said again and started your way back to your apartment.

Opening the door to your apartment you took off your backpack and sat it on the papasan chair you had in front of your TV which stood atop your medium sized entertainment center, that also homed your many consoles, video games, and DvD's. A loud bark sounded throughout your apartment, making you look forward, as a brindled Labrador came belting up to you.

"Hey Carter!" You shouted as she jumped up on you. "Who's a good girl? Yes, yes you are!" You said in a slight baby voice to the happy dog.

"Ugh, why do you always use that voice for that fleabag?" A small voice said, coming from your backpack after opening it with his claws. Opening your pocket a small feathered reptilian kwami came flying out. "And nice performance on the stairs." He said with a sadistic chuckle.

"Why thank you dear Zulu." You said with a slight bow. "Now then." You said walking into the kitchen. "How's some lunch sound?"

"YES!" Zulu screeched happily and floated past you into the kitchen. A bark of happiness notified you that Carter agreed. You chuckled and followed the raptor kwami.

It was around 8ish and you were currently working on your homework when Zulu's head perked up and his cat like eyes narrowed as he stared out the window. You too indulged in your Homework didn't notice. "Aurthor." The small raptor said catching your attention.

'Hmm?' You hummed in acknowledgement. Not taking your eyes off your homework.

"There's an akuma." He said making you glance at the small kwami. Noticing his stare, you looked outside as well, nothing seemed destroyed.... yet.

Sighing you set your pen down, ready to take a break from your homework. "Okay, whelp, let's get going then." You said and opened your balcony door. Carter perked up and watched you as you walked out, Zulu following, and shut the glass door. She laid back down ignoring you once the door was shut. She knew you wouldn't be long since you had been living in Paris for almost a year now and was used to this.

"Okay Zulu, let's hunt." You said and Zulu was sucked into a velociraptor claw around your neck. The exhilarating feeling came as it usually did when you transformed. You could feel the usual scaled mask appear on your face, your now very short hair spike to the back, and the tight body suit. Soon you could feel the extra weight behind you as your new tail grew and grew, next was your teeth sharpening to a pin point. Opening your eyes you could feel them slit and soon your senses heightened slightly. You looked at yourself, indulging in how awesome you looked, in a mostly scaled suit, with feathers on the bottom on your arms, on the sides of your mask, and lined down your back and tail. You clicked the sharp metal claws that were attached to your fingers in anticipation. Then looked over to where you could sense the akuma.

"Let's find our prey shall we?"

You ran and jumped from rooftop to rooftop. You smiled with your sharpened teeth, enjoying the run. You might not get out much, but thanks to Zulu's power, you could run at speeds of almost 40 mph and could run a lot longer than normally. You laughed as you did a triple front flip and landed in a perfect hero's position of a crouch with on arm spread out and the other on the ground. You looked up with a sharp smirk. 'Almost there' You thought and started sprinting to the Notre dame. "How cliche." You mumbled to yourself.

"AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!! Keep trying Ladyflea and Chat annoying!" A man with stone wings and a stone mask laughed. What was odd, besides his bad name calling, was the many stone gargoyles flying around him. You looked to the ground to see Ladybug and Chatnoir fighting off a few of the stone beasts, they seemed to be having a hard time. Smirking you looked back up to the akuma and crossed your arms in front of you. You uncrossed your arms quickly, firing the sharp feathers at the akuma, and quickly ducked into an alleyway.

"ARGH! What the!?" The akuma yelled, clearly looking in the direction you fired, but you were already in another street.

"Heheheh. Okay, now then." You said looking to the two other miraculous users. As the akuma kept looking for you down the street, you quickly ran over to the gargoyle that Lady was struggling with and jumped it. Your claws instantly penetrated the stone being and destroyed it instantly.

"Raptor! Finally." Ladybug said, revealing your position to the akuma, who turned just as Lady yelled. Face palming, you glanced at Ladybug with a 'really' look.

"Help Chat. I got Stoner here." You smirked as your eyes became predatorial. The akuma glared at you.

"My name is NOT 'Stoner'. I am 'Gargoyle'!." He yelled and made his eyes glow yellow. 'Wow, such an original name'. Two gargoyles floating beside him eyes glowed the same color and darted at you. Your tail flicked in anticipation and just before the gargoyles hit you, you bolted between them and kept your eyes on Gargoyle.

You heard a crash behind you, but ignored it and jumped at him, your claws pointed at him. You could see the fear in his eyes before he flew above you and kicked your back, sending you forward. You quickly rolled and stopped yourself before you looked behind yourself. Just in time to see him punch you in the gut, sending you flying again and hit a building behind you. You looked up and saw him racing towards you once more. Quickly putting your arms up in defense, you easily blocked a punch, your arms taking most of the blow.

He recoiled and you instantly shot some more feathers and jumped above him to the building above as he was too distracted by your attack. Once he had his vision back you were already jumping down to another street and he was pounced on by Chat. Ladybug wrapped her yo-yo string around his legs and pulled, making him fall to the floor.

You, in the meantime were watching in the safety of a building nearby. Waiting for a good time to strike.

Gargoyle spread his wings, knocking Chat off him, and flew up, taking Ladybug up with him. "Lady!" Chat yelled in exasperation and started after the stone winged man.

"Seriously?" You said face palming and quickly started your way after Gargoyle. You quickly ran and jumped up from a car, swung from a lamp post, and back flipped onto a rooftop, then continued your running.

"Raptor." You heard beside you. You didn't look, but already knew it was Chat and gave a sharp smile.

"Evening Chat." You said, your eyes trained on your prey. That's when you noticed it, the slight subtle change in his speed. "He's slowing down, come on." You said and sped up. You could hear panting behind you as Chat tried to keep up with you.

Noticing a taller building closing in you quickly ran up the side of it, and jumped up firing some feathers and effectively cutting Ladybug's yo-yo string. You rolled onto another rooftop and continued after Gargoyle. Only for....

Ladybug to land on you and crush you, effectively loosing sight of Gargoyle. "Uugghh.. Didn't calculate that." You mumbled.

"Oh my gosh, are you okay Raptor?" Ladybug asked.

"I would be if you got off me." You said and she got off you. Quickly getting up you looked around. "Shit." You turned to Ladybug, and now Chatnoir, who were staring at you. "Did you see where he went?" You asked.

"I was falling on top of you." Ladybug stated.

"I just got over here." Chat said.

"UUGGGHH!!" You screeched, you tail thrashing about. "Okay, okay. Simple, just need to follow his scent." I mumbled and started sniffing the air. I jumped forward to the next rooftop to the next, sniffing every area I could. Only to come up short. I sighed and looked over to the two miraculous users as the continued looking around to see if they could spot the akuma. "Anything?" You ask getting the two's attention. They both shook their heads. You sighed and looked down to your claw necklace, about 3 shadowed ridges remained. 'Good' You thought. 'I still have time.'

"So, how about we split and search high and low?" Ladybug asked. I shook my head.

"No, that would take to much time. Better idea, I lead you two to the akuma, rest a bit, then come join you in the fight?" You said walking between the two and looked towards the Eiffel tower.

"Are you saying, you're finally going to use your power?" Chat asked in pure interest. He should be, you rarely use this power, only using it in dire emergencies when you loose an akuma you can't find. Like now.

"Yup." You said popping the 'P'. You stretched your arms in front of you, popping your fingers, then popped your neck. "Now then. Sharp Claw!" You said as light formed around your head and soon was absorbed by you. Closing your eyes, enjoying the sensation as your senses heightened even higher. You opened your eyes, knowing they were glowing a brilliant Blue as they were filled with power.

"HELP!" You heard it, ever so lowly. You quickly turned toward the direction, past the river over to the Bastille.

"Well, no wonder why he was so quiet." I mutter. "He's over near the Bastille." I state.

"That's almost across the town." Ladybug states and I look to her, smirking.

"That's never stopped us before."
