I wake up in the guest room of the Agrest mansion. I pull on my clothes for school and grab my bag. "Morning Agrest!" I yell at his door. No reply. "Agrest? AGREST!!" Still no reply. I open the door and walk in. "Dude? Get up!" He doesn't stir. I rip off the covers off and pull him out of bed. "WAKE UP ADRIEN!!!!!!" I shout. "GAH!" He jumps in surprise. "You don't normally sleep in?" I say in confusion. "Mmm... I don't think my alarm went off," he replies as I walk out of the room so he can change. After we're all dressed and ready to go, Natalie escorts is to the car and we drive to school. "Exited to see costumes?" I ask Adrien. "Yea actually!" He smiles. "What about you?" "My costume is literally a bunch of silver. I'm a mirror," I laugh. "Fair point. What about Bri?" He asks with a suggestive smile. "Well...it's complicated," I shake my head. "Come on! You can tell me," he grins. "Ugh. Well, I know I like one girl but I'm starting to kinda get feelings for another," I sigh. "Bri?" "Yea." "I get it. It's difficult, and it might take a while, but you have to figure out who you like more," he smiles understandingly. I laugh, "Thanks Hufflepuff." He tilts his head in confusion. A habit Honey Badger also has. "It's a term from a book. It's a good thing. In my opinion at least," I explain. We reach the school and meet Plagg and Nino at the front. "Hey dudes! Finally made it! Did you hear about what happened at Miraculous last night?" Nino asks with excitement. Of course I know! I was there, but I decide to play dumb. "No, what happened?" I ask. Plagg throws me a knowing smirk, "Two newbies totally showed up Ladybug and Chat Noir," he grins, showing his sharp canine teeth. "Crazy!" Adrien says in shock. "I've heard they're the best. Mostly Chat Noir though." I laugh. "About time to go guys." We walk up the steps and part to our different classes. Me and Adrien head to ballet and meet Bri and Mari. "Hey guys," Bri says with a wave. She wears her black leotard but I see her black Hufflepuff t-shirt and blue jeans with black lace patching the rips. Bri catches me looking at her jeans and laughs, "Mari insisted on patching them. I gotta admit though, she did a great job." I smile at her as she removes her leather jacket and cap. "Where did you get that cap?" I ask Bri, pointing to ground where her stuff is. "Erm...uh...JC Pennies?" She stammers. Totally abnormal but I dismiss it. "Students? Today we are going over our costumes and routines," Madam Bustier smiles. Sweet. She calls Mari and Bri first who gladly pull the bags off the table and take them to the changing room. Mari comes out first in a brown leotard with a white tutu and her pink ballet shoes for the first few scenes. Bri comes out in a black leotard with black lace sleeves, a high black collar, a wilting black and purple tutu, and her black slippers. "This is the shortest dress I've ever worn," she grunts as she walks over to me. "It goes to your knees?" Mari laughs. "Exactly," she says with her bored expression. Next me and Adrien are called up and I grab the costume bag. "I saw how you looked at Bri," he winks as we walk into the changing room. I pull on the silver tuxedo shirt and black pants. "Not bad," Adrien nods as I come out. "Look at yourself! Prince Charming looks good on you," I laugh. We go ad stand by the girls while we wait for the others to change. The girls receive their other costumes and change. Mari's is a white and silver leotard with a white tutu that sticks straight out and white slippers. Bri comes out in a gray and brown leotard with black leggings and a brown and gray wilting tutu. "This ones even worse! At least the other one looked good," she grumbles with a smirk. We change into our usual clothes and begin rehearsals.

After class, me and Adrien wave to the guys and climb in the car. Almost time to practice for the competition. "Have fun at rehearsals today?" Adrien laughs. "Hum? Wh-what do you mean?" I blush. "Come on! You literally couldn't say anything when she came out and she was talking directly to you!" He laughs. "Fine fine fine!" I admit. "Why is this so difficult? I'll decide who I like more then one goes and does something!" I ponder aloud. "I get it man, I'm in the same boat," he sighs. We pull up at the house and get out. "Why don't we check out the Dupain-Chang bakery?" Adrien asks. "Sounds like a plan Stan," I smile. "My name's not Stan?" Adrien throws me a perplexed look. I sigh, "It's just a saying. Let's go," I laugh. We walk up to the bakery and see the girls playing at the counter, throwing flower at each other. Mari has her usual pink, white, and black outfit and Bri has her Black and Silver Hufflepuff shirt and patched jeans. It looks like they were making a type of strudel but got distracted. "That's probably the first legit smile I've seen on her in a very long time," I whisper to a stunned Adrien. "Oh! Hey guys!" Mari chirps when she sees us. "Sorry," "We got a bit distracted," Bri laughs. There's something so familiar about that smile! I just can't put my finger on it. "No, don't be," Adrien smiles. "Any how, we just dropped by to say hi and grab a snack." Mari grins massively and elbows Bri in the side. "What can we get cha?" Bri asks after smacking Mari's elbow away. "Depends on what you're making," I smile and walk over to the counter. "Austrian strudel," Bri smiles proudly. "I-If want you wait- I mean! If you want to wait, w-we'll g-get you some!" Mari sputters. "Sure! That'll be great! Um can we get some crescents to snack on?" Adrien asks. "S-sure! I-I'll get a b-bag!" "I happen to know Bri makes a mean coffee. She can do the designs and everything!" I grin. "So I'm guessing you want one?" She asks. "Two please!" "Alright alright!" She walks over to a cappuccino machine and sets to work as Mari hands Adrien a bag. "Thanks!" He smiles. "N-o p-prob!" Me and Adrien sit at one of the tables and start snacking. "These are great!" Adrien smiles. All this kid ever does is smile! It's pretty nice, everyone at my school back home is always grumbling. "Here. Designs and everything," Bri says in an attempted bored tone but she can't hide the pride and smile in her voice. "Thanks!" I says. I look down at the cup and to a back flip in my brain. Mine is split in two, one side is the brown color of the coffee with a white badger print and the other is all white with a small dragon in brown. I look at Adrien's who's is similar, brown with white paw print, and white with brown Ladybug. "Woah. You weren't kidding Alex!" He says in a slightly nervous tone. "I-I told you so! Great job Bri!" I grin. Bri and Mari finish the strudel and bring four pieces to our table. "Mind if we sit?" Bri asks with an eyebrow raised. I nod my head and she hands out the pieces. "Cream cheese with chocolate chips," she says proudly. "Bri's an amazing baker," Mari complements. "Naw. I just follow directions. Mari knows all these amazing recipes by heart!" Bri protests. We continue talking about food until someone brings up Miraculous again. "Have you heard of it?" I ask in a whisper. "Everyone has!" Bri gasps. "But I've heard if you get caught you get expelled!" "Uh..." Mari says and whispers something to Bri who's eyes widen. "Adrien?" She asks and he shakes his head. "Trust me, I have nothing to do with that rule," he replies and the girls let out a nervous breath. "It's Mr. Agrest who enforces the rule," Mari explains. "And seeing as Adrien is his kid..." Bri continues. "Ah I see. Have you guys been?" I ask. My three friends shake their heads. "No," Bri says "but I think it would be fun." I glance at my watch at the same time Bri does, "I gotta split," we say at the same time. "Um...yea," I laugh. "See ya Bri, Mari." Me and Adrien head home and change. "Night, Agrest," I say before closing my door. "Good nigh Alex!" He replies before we head to bed. I wake up an hour later and change into my Black Dragon costume. I grab the bag sitting on my nightstand and hop out the window to the vines below it and climb down. "Good to see ya Hun," I wink when I see Badger. "Hia BD," she laughs. "I got cha somthin," she smiles and hands me a bag. "Neat! I got you something too!" I hand her mine. I open my bag and find a gold bracelet that looks like a dragon wrapped it's self around my wrist. I slide it on. "It fits perfectly!" I grin. I watch her pull out the black choker I found with a silver circle charm and a yellow badger head hanging from it. "Thanks so much! It awesome!" She smiles and puts it on. "Hey guys," Chat waves and I see a black ring glittering on his finger as he and Ladybug approach us, she's wearing red and black spotted earrings. "Hey. Wanna go straight to practice or mess around for a minute?" Badger asks and we all grin. Me and Badger are up first. "Who wants to challenge the Dragon and Badger?" Bubbler asks. He calls up a chick with ombré hair, black tank top with a purple wifi signal on it, black and purple sweatpants, and purple converse with purple face paint and another girl with black sweat shirt, dark blue sweatpants, and half blue half black face paint separated by a white lightning mark. "Stormy Weather and my girl Lady WiFi vs champs, Honey Badger and Black Dragon!" Bubbler says over the mic. Lady WiFi whispers the song to him and All Star by Smash Mouth plays. WiFi flips back and rolls through the air. Stormy does some flips too and they glance at us. Badger drops to the ground and does a well balanced windmill and stops on her side with her head on her hand and elbow on the stage. I laugh as she raises her eye brows at me with a smile before I flip over her and we start dancing together. Stormy and WiFi join us and we flip and twist around each other before the song ends with Bri in her usual upside down pose and the girls back to back. "Stormy Weather and Lady WiFi?" The crowd cheers. "Honey Badger and Black Dragon?" The crowd roars. "Badger and Dragon win again!" Bubbler shouts. Bri salute/winks and we shake hands with the girls. "Nice job guys!" LB smiles when we get back before they go up the stage to compete. "Miraculous has to win with the four of you competing," Lady WiFi grins. "Thanks! But we do need two more dancers," Badger smiles. "I'm sure you'll be one of them," I grin. She smiles and waves before taking off to videotape the match. "Do you really think we have a chance, Dragon? I mean, these are elite dancers. Trust me, I've watched them all dance," Badger asks in a worried tone. "We just got here and everyone here is relying on us, two people we barely know, and two people we've never met!" "Badger, we might not have the best coaches, we might not be the best dancers, but we've got something Hawkmoth, and BlueJay, and Alpha, and Damien don't have," I smile reassuringly. "And what is that?" She says in an unbelieving tone. "Each other." She smiles. "Thanks BD. I needed that," she gives me a massive hug. "You're my best friend. You know that?" "Yea. And you're mine B," I say softly and hug her back. "LB and Chat are heading this way," she says. "About time to practice." "We still need two more dancers," I say when we all catch up. "We think Lady WiFi would be great, but that would still leave one person," Badger sighs. "Hum..." Ladybug ponders. "Time to call in reinforcements," Badger grins and pulls out her phone and puts it in speaker. "Skeletor? Your on speaker. Call me by my alias," she tells the phone. "Okay. What's up? Why did you call?" The phone asks. "Guys, this is my friend Skeletor. Skeletor, these are my new crew mates, Ladybug and Chat Noir from Paris." "Dragon's there?" She asks knowingly. "Of course," Badger laughs. "What's the sich?" "Long story short, we're a member short and we could use your help." "No prob. I'm already there." "Cool! How far are you?" "No literally I'm right here. Like, turn around." We turn and a girl in a pink crop top, pink high top converse, pink yoga pants, a pink cap, all with white bone print and pink and white face paint waves at us. "Hey! I haven't seen you in forever!" Badger smiles and hugs her. "Guys, this is my girl, Skeletor. She observes people. Like, a lot. She knows every move ever preformed and every dancers' move patterns," Badger smiles. "Hey!" Skeletor waves, her long wavy brown hair in a pony tail. "Been a while Dragon, how's things with you know who?" She laughs, nodding her head at Badger. I blush, "Uh, s-same as always." "Alright, time to practice!" Skeletor grins. We ding Plagg and Tikki who lead us to a separate room in the warehouse. "Okay, this is cool," Badger grins, looking around the room. "Time to set to work!" Ladybug grins and plays warm up music on the radio.
