The Evillustrator

"No! Stop!" Chloe was yelling, running around the library as the large black hair dryer knocked over book cases.

You hopped on top of a book shelf and assessed the situation the best you could. You kept one hand on your holstered nunchucks, ready for anything.

Suddenly, a girl in a red suit with black dots jumped out and landed on the hairdryer. "Run and hide!" she told Chloe, who quickly ran off.

This must have been Ladybug. She had a mask that matched her skin-tight suit and red ties around her short, black pigtails. She had a yo-yo tied around her waist, and blue eyes.

"I got wind that you were being blown away by a hairy situation," said a boy who pounced in onto another shelf. He wore a black leather suit with padding and a belt for a tail. He had black ears in his hair and a golden bell around his neck. His mask was black and made his eyes green and catlike, the same way yours were orange.

"Fewer puns, more action!" Ladybug said, rolling her eyes as she continued to struggle. Chat Noir whipped out his staff and tried to hit it, but it was too fast.

Ladybug threw her yo-yo and the string wrapped around a pole. She went around a few times, knocking shelves over, but when she finally managed to knock it to the ground you swooped in, diving down and gliding with your arms out. When you landed on the ground you pulled out your nunchucks and hit the hairdryer, making it disintegrate.

"Well, that guy looks pretty sketchy!" Chat Noir said when he finally saw the Evillustrator over the railing on the second floor. He had a zigzag pattern on his suit, with the three primary colors on his chest. He also wore a drawing pad on his forearm, with a pencil at the ready.

The pair began to jumped towards the Evillustrator, but he quickly put his pen to his pad a doodled a wall that knocked both of them back, and when they looked up he was gone.

"Where'd he go?" Ladybug asked. She clutched her yo-yo as she scanned around the library.

"I don't know, but he sure has a way of illustrating his point," Chat Noir said cheekily.

Ladybug groaned, but you snickered and they both looked at you. For a moment you had almost forgotten that you weren't all new to the team and you were the one who didn't belong. They scanned you up and down, then Ladybug spoke up.

"Who are you?" Before you could respond she got into a defensive stance and began to twirl her yo-yo. "Are you another Akuma victim?!"

Chat Noir was behind her, but didn't follow her lead. "Hawk Moth can only akumatize one person at a time," he reminded her, but she didn't stand down.

"I'm Batwing." You said nothing else, but you stood there until Chat Noir nudged Ladybug's shoulder.

"If she's here to help, let her. She probably has a Bat Miraculous or something. If she is bad we can take her down." You nodded to Chat Noir. You didn't want to speak more than absolutely necessary because they would no doubt be able to tell you weren't French and more would unravel from there.

"Fine, though she didn't do much while we were trying to fight," Ladybug growled. She holstered her yo-yo and took off through a window. Chat Noir immediately followed her, and with no idea where you were going you followed Chat Noir.

To your surprise you arrived at Le Grand Paris Hotel; which was where you were staying. Ladybug and Chat Noir had just perched themselves on Chloe's balcony, and began talking, but they weren't waiting on you.

You landed next to Chat Noir and looked at Ladybug. "The plan?" you asked impatiently. It bothered you how they just left you behind, without warning and without explanation, but as you thought about it, you realized it was what Ladybug had done to Chat Noir.

"The villain seemed to be targeting Chloe Bourgeois, and I want to ask her why. This gives us clues as to who they are and where the Akuma might be," Chat Noir explained as Lasybug was peering through the window.

You had to bite your tongue, fighting off the urge to ask Chat Noir what the word 'clues' meant. Instead you just nodded. He smiled mischievously to you.

"I see her!" Ladybug said. She began to knock on the glass. Chloe moved her curtain back and when she saw Ladybug she smiled and bounced up and down. She quickly slid her glass door open and wrapped Ladybug in a hug.

"Oh my gosh! Ladybug is in my bedroom!"

Ladybug quickly pushed her off and crossed her arms. "We actually need to talk to you."

Chloe skipped off to the living room area and sat down in her couch. The three of you followed her, and surrounded her to listen. It actually confused you that she was fawning over Ladybug and not over the fact the Chat Noir was one of the hottest people you had ever seen.

You blushed at the thought and forced yourself to listen to what Chloe had to say.

Ladybug sat cross-legged on the armrest of one of Chloe's couches and frowned with her hand in her fist.

"Seems this Evillustrator's targeting you specifically, Chloé. Any idea why?" Chat Noir asked.

"No. Everyone adores me." Chloe smirked to herself triumphantly.

But, Ladybug rolled her eyes and looked away. "Yeah, because you're sooo adorable," she said sarcastically.

Chloe jumped up as squealed, "Yeesss! Ladybug just said I'm adorable!" She pulled her phone out of her back pocket. "I totally need a picture of the two of us together!" She smiled and snapped a picture of an angry Ladybug.

"Ugh!" Ladybug said when Chloe finally released her. "That was unpleasant." She stood up and walked away from Chloe.

"Well, I look great, of course, but your smile is all wonky. I'll take another!" Chloe snapped another picture, but Ladybug looked even angrier.

"Sorry, I'm just a little camera shy." She continued to walk away.

"Looks like somebody's got a fan!" Chat Noir snickered, following her with a smirk. He nudged you in the arm, and you chuckled.

"Yeah, great."

"So what's the deal?" he asked, taking her off to the side. "Why are you acting so weird? Come on, you gotta admit that having this girl worship you is pretty awesome." Chat Noir was starting to look annoyed at her.

"I'm over this! Let's go!" Ladybug muttered as she looked over to a drawing of what you recognized to be Nathaniel and Marrinette. She picked it up and her face turned bright red. She pulled her yo-yo out and prepared to swing it at a building.

"Are you kidding me? And what if the Evillustrator attacks her again?" Chat Noir raged. "And what about (Y/N)? She's staying here, too! She could be in danger."

"Fine! You two stay! Later!"

"What do you mean later?" you asked, stepping forward. "You're leaving again?"

"I don't care about her either!" Ladybug paused. "I mean, you guys are the ones who want to protect them, but you don't need me. So, later!" She swung away, leaving the three of you alone. But, Chloe ran out to her balcony, yelling out for Ladybug.

Chat Noir spun around to look at you and grabbed you by the shoulders. "Please," he begged, clearly in grief. "I need you to watch over Chloe, I need to go protect (Y/N) across the hall."

You assumed he knew about you because as soon as you came off the airplane you were bombarded by paparazzi and people begging to take your pictures. Everyone was interested in the "poor foreigner the Mayor of Paris took under his wing", though you rarely saw him.

"I can do that." You gulped. "Trust me." There was no way you could let him find out you weren't in your room.
