She remembers how she died. That's because she saw it happen.

That day was bright and sunny, not a cloud in the sky. Hawkmoth was defeated and Lila no longer had a hold on her friends.

Things seemed to be great. They were great, but despite that she still had things to do.

Now that she's the guardian, she could feel the balance of the world. It doesn't need them. The miraculous is not needed any more. There had been to much Creation magic concentrated in one place after the final battle that despair was needed to counter balance the hope.

She came up with a plan. She would take her Kitty's ring and cataclysm herself infront of them. All of them.

A public suicide where everyone could see.

------------------------------

She walks cheerfully to the meeting place. The people of Paris smiling truthfully and feeling lighter than ever.

I'm using my new tablet to draw and it's great! If only Flipaclip would stop deleting my projects, I'd have animations! Oh well....no animations or progress on such things for me!

----------------------------

She sees her Kitty waiting for her. Her other half. He may seem like he wasn't her equal but he was. He could do things and think of things she couldn't and he was her Kitty.

He spotted her and waved with a smile.

"Marinette! How's my best friend in the world?"

'Time to put my practice to work', she thought.

"Well, my Kitty, I am doing great! Are you ready for the movies? I heard your mother went back to acting."

He nodded and his smile turned somber.

"Yeah, after the divorce she really needed a distraction and to get her life back together."

She gave him a soft smile. Patting his shoulder once before moving to his other side.

"Let's go in, everyone is waiting for us!"

He walks inside the movie theater and sit with their friends. Seemed like perfect ending right? Well because it was too perfect, that something needed to happen and it did.

She took the ring. Well, the ring (Plagg) went to her. Revealing himself as he phased the ring off Adrian's finger was part of the plan. Doing so in the movie theater, not so much. Such an impatient Kwami he was.

He flew off outside holding the ring. Of course Adrian ran after him. Marinette and the others followed. She had her bag full of what she needed and 'caught' him.

"Marinette!", smiled Adrian.

She smiled back sadly. She uttered the words, " Plagg, claws out."

He became confused as Ladynoir stood in front of him. She jumped farther a way when got closer.

"Marinette?"

She whispered the words that will haunt him.

"Cataclysm."

His eyes widen and he hurries to stop her.

"Marinette!"

It was too late, she gently placed her hand onto her chest with a smile as she closed her eyes.

"I'm sorry."

She disintegrated as he reached her.  Tears stinging his eyes as he collapse to his knees and stare at where her body drifted a way in particles of dust.
