Don't say anything, I'll talk. And if you really need to talk, talk with a lower voice or lighter voice to prevent them from recognizing us. Plus, spread out to make sure Ladybug and Chat Noir don't go anywhere. Sophie transmitted.

Everyone nodded and quickly spread out, but that did not stop Ladybug from launching a net (which she got from her lucky charm) that trapped them.

"Why are you here?"Sophie asked, her voice deepening.

"To catch you of course. Don't think we didn't remember you from last time. You were the ones that defeated that weird fire monster, plus, you suddenly escaped into thin air when we approached you. Who are you guys? Were you sent by Hawkmoth?"Ladybug asked.

"You don't want to know. Besides, who is Hawkmoth?"Sophie replied.

Ladybug and Chat Noir shared a glance, these strange people didn't know who Hawkmoth was? He was the biggest super villain ever in Paris.

"What do you mean you don't know who Hawkmoth is? He's famous in Paris."Ladybug said, raising an eyebrow.

"Ok, we don't know who this weirdo Hawkmoth person is, but we can tell you not to mess with us."Keefe said, stepping forward and making his voice shift a few octaves higher.

Chat Noir snorted,"Why? Because you have more people than us so you guys think that you'll defeat us and run away again? Don't forget, you're totally unprepared, plus, you're trapped right now."

Sophie shook her head,"Nah, if you do any harm to any of my friends, or me, I will tell announce your identities to everyone, and I'm sure you wouldn't want that."

Chat Noir snorted again,"Yeah right, I don't think you'd know our identities so easily, I'd like to see you try."

"Ok, then, On a count of 3. one...two...th-"Sophie said.

"No! You can't, fine, we won't hurt you, we just want to know who you guys are and if you guys are evil."Ladybug shouted, nervously shooting Chat Noir a look that read, I think they're serious.

"Of course we're not bad! Why do you think we saved you from the monster?"Sophie asked, just as Dex muttered,"Evil..... yeah right, you're looking at the wrong people."

"So, you haven't answered our first question! Who are you?"Chat Noir asked.

"We.....can't tell you that."Sophie said.

 Chat Noir took a step forward to Sophie and Sophie backed away,"Why? Why are you hiding stuff? Only evil people do that, and if you hide stuff, that just proves you-"

"RUN!"Dex shouted, interrupting him, then throwing one of his gadgets he invented that looked like the ones that he used in Exile.

The gadgets created a fog, making Chat Noir and Ladybug lose sight of the seven elves.

Dex launched another of his gadgets, it was probably suppose to explode and make Ladybug and Chat Noir get shocked and jump away, but it landed on Chat Noir, and the bomb exploded, making Chat Noir have a huge wound on the side of his leg. 

"STOP!"Sophie shouted," Someone's wounded!"

Everyone froze and Ladybug quickly but quietly ran over to Chat Noir.

"Oh My Gosh, its a huge wound! But we don't have time to bring him to the hospital...."Ladybug whispered.

 Sophie gasped and quickly rummaged through her backpack,"Here, you don't need to go to the hospital, just drink this and apply this on him."she then tossed an elixir and the bottle that was labeled WOUND WIPES, ( Hehe, actually, I saw this in the first book and decided to write it here) given by Elwin, he told her that it could seal any wound as long as they applied it on the victim.

Ladybug quickly gave Chat Noir the elixir to drink while applying the ointment on him, after she applied a few layers on him, his leg looked completely fine, plus, he looked fine too.

"Thanks for saving me, I shouldn't have been so harsh on you."Chat Noir mumbled.

"No problem, in fact, Fo- I mean the person right next to me has suffered lots cases which she has a lot of injuries too, in many cases, that includes almost dying."Keefe said under his hood.

"Well, to prevent us from being one of the causes of you guys almost dying, how about we have an agreement? We promise not to hurt you, and we promise not to hurt us? Agree?"Ladybug asked.

Sophie and her friends looked at each other, I think we should say yes, Sophie transmitted, if we don't have them as enemies, less of us will get hurt and that will be better, for all of us.

In the end, everyone agreed and Sophie told Ladybug their decision.

After that, Sophie said,"We'll take our leave now, if you ever face that monster again in the future, we'll sure to be there to help."

Then, all 7 of them clasped their hands together and ran, vanishing from Ladybug and Chat Noir's sight.

As Ladybug looked at them disappear, she sighed and turned to leave, but not before she saw something glitter in her view, she ran to pick it up and saw a crystal, it was clear and had no colour.

Chat Noir noticed this and frowned, "What's that?"he asked.

Ladybug shrugged,"Probably something they dropped, I'll return it to them the next time we see them."

Chat Noir grabbed the crystal, "Hmm, but why would they have a crystal with them? Unless they're super rich....."

Ladybug nudged him,"Don't think of any funny ideas, we only have a few minutes before we transform back, plus, you need to go home and rest, you had an injury, even though its healed by that ointment that person gave us, you should still probably get some rest, it could get hurt again."

Chat Noir smirked,"Why? Worried about me m'lady?"

Ladybug flushed pink,"No, I'm not! Stop saying those things!"

Chat Noir chuckled, then he frowned and held the crystal to the light,"but still.."

"I told you stop getting any more ideas!"Ladybug said.  

Ladybug, unfortunately, at that moment lost her footing and hung onto Chat Noir for balance, but she accidentally used too much strength and pushed Chat Noir, both of them wobbled and Chat Noir took a step into the light, and he fell.

 Since Ladybug was holding onto Chat Noir, she too fell into the light, along with Chat Noir.

The elves:

"Do you think what I did with the 'agreement' thing was right?"Sophie asked, as she and her friends sat on the couch.

"Well, I think-"Keefe started, but he was interrupted by the flashing on Sophie's imparter.

Sophie lunged to get it, and Mr. Forkle's face filled the tiny screen.them.

He looked really nervous, which was a bad sign.

He didn't usually get nervous, and if he was, that meant something, really, really bad had happened.

"Mr. Forkle? What's wrong? Something wrong with our family?"Sophie asked.

Mr. Forkle shook his head, "No, its worst than that."

"What do you mean?"Biana asked.

Mr. Forkle sucked in a breath,"Apparently, there are now two humans that are faded, here in the Lost cities."
