>> Chapter 8 <<

The tunnel was dark. Only lit by a few torches. The pair walked along talking about all the people Mari met like Alex, Kim, Max, Ivan, Rose and many more. Marinette curious about what was around her, was asking lots of questions about this new world.

"Thats enough questions for one day" Mari stated.

"Where did you come from" she asked her cat like guide.

"Whoa whoa oh no bugaboo. I don't do back storys-" The feline said swiping his hands in the air on an 'X' shape.

"But I am starting to become very interested in yours" he said glancing marinettes way as he continued.

"Now I know I'm not supposed to talk about the hair-"

"Nope" marinette said

"The father" he continued

"Mmmh" she replied

"And honestly I'm too afraid to ask about the frog" Chat said glancing at the animal sitting on Marinettes shoulder.

"Its a chameleon" marinette said petting the small animal.

"Same thing" chat said dissmissing her comment and continuing.

"So here's my question. If you wanted to see the butterflies so badly. Why haven't you gone before?" He asked. He was now turned towards her. Looking down on the small blue hair girl. He could tell that this question startled her by her stance.

"Uh huh well-" she started looking over to Tikki when footsteps where heard.

🐞Marinette🐞

I turn over my shoulder to see three men and a tall black horse running toward me and Chat Noir.

"Uh Chat?" I say as they get closer to the two of us.

"Chat?!" I yell as I pick up as much of my hair as I can and start backing away quickly.

"Run. Run!" Chat said putting a soft, gental, protective hand on my back urging me to run.

We finally arrived at the end of the tunnel. I could see the Rays of sun coming through the opening. When we emerged from the tunnel I saw a big canyon with a dam and a water mill.

"Mari! Look out!" Chat yelled as he caught my hand before I ran off the cliff we were approaching.

We both look down to see a rope ladder and another tunnel opening on the other side of the canyon.

The sound of spintering wood peirced the air as two other people broke through a second tunnel.

"Who's that?" I asked frightened.

"They dont like me" Chat said with a worried face paointing to Chole and Sabrina who just drew their swords.

"Noir!" I heard another voice say behind me as the group of 3 men caught up.

"Who's that!" I said urgently.

"They dont like me either" Chat said

A crash Was heard as well with the sound of hooves as the black horse approched behind the group of three men.

"Who's that!"I said said with a suprised face.

"Lets just assume for the moment that everyone here doesn't like me." Chat said putting his hands on my shoulders and looking me in the eyes.

'Of course' I think to myself rolling my eyes.

"Here." I hand him the yoyo that was around my waist, throw my hair to the side while holding the end of it. Then proceed to throw the end so that it wraps around a small ledge and jump landing safely on a larger ledge.

🐾Chat Noir pov🐾

Whoa...
I think as she jumps off the ledge safely landing on another.

"I've waited a long time for this" I hear a deep voice say as the sound of a sword being drawn reminds me of my situation.

I look at the 'weapon' in my hands and start swinging.

"One... Two... Three!" All three guards where knocked out.

"Me-wow! I need to get me one of these!" I say as I look at the weapon or yoyo in my hands.

Then there was another sword being lifted and I prepared to to fight the man who-

Wait what?!? I thought when I saw the black horse holding a sword in his mouth, preparing to fight.

He came at me from the right and left. He was actually a really skilled swordsman er horse.

"You should know-" I yell to him

"This is the strangest thing I've ever done" I yell as he knocks the yoyo out of my hand.

"Well that's a claw-ful turn of events..." I say as we watch the yoyo fall down the cliff.

The horse comes closer to my chest with his sword.

"How about 2 out of 3?" I say backing away with my hands in the air. Getting closer to the cliffs edge.

"Chat! Umph" I hear a voice say as a soft peice of blue hair wrapps around my raised hand and pulls me down so I'm now swinging to a safe ledge away from-

"Chat! Look out!"

When I look ahead to where I'm swinging I see Chole and sabrine with swords drawn trying to swing at me but are sadly not tall enough to reach me.

"Ha! You should see your faces! You look Ridiculous" I yell as I smack into a wall and fall on a ledge.

"Me-Owch" I say sitting up rubbing my head.

🐞marinette pov🐞

'Phew! He's ok.' I think as I hear a loud knocking of wood.

"What the- Ah!" I say as the black horse kicks down a pole that supports the water dam it falls right at my feet.

The now awake guards and horse start to cross when I feel a tug on my hair. I slowly back away to the center of the ledge and hear chat yell

"Come on Mari! Jump!"

He has the end of my hair secured in his hands and is ready for me to jump.

I run off the ledge and leap into the air with a small loop of hair behind me.

Once I get close to the ground I use all my strength, pull my body upward and glide across the top of a large puddle.

I start running towards one of the two tunnels with my arms full of my hair and see that Chat Noir has caught up with me.

I can see the panic in his deep green eyes as a blonde and red hair girls start running towards us. Then it broke.

The waters from the dam were let loose. We where being chased by gigantic waves taller then the tower I grew up in.

"Go go go go!! Chat yelled as we approached the tunnel and a large rock fell at the entrence trapping us inside yet he somehow chat time to grab my yoyo that was almost crushed by the falling rock. We continued to run, feeling the water at our feet until the tunnel ended.

"Dang it! Wrong tunnel!" Chat whispered under his breath.

The water was getting higher and higher as we clawed at the walls to find an opening.

Chat even attemped to go under the water and find a weak spot but failed and injured his hand in the process.

"There no use. I cant see anything down there."

"Let me try" I say as I dive under and feel two firm hands grab my waist and pull me back up.

"Hey. There no point. It pitch black down there" he says softly wipping the water off my face with his I'm injured hand.

'no. no. there has to be. There has to be a way out' I think as tears fill my eyes

"This is all my fault." I say

"He was right. I never should of done this" letting the tears fall, covering my saddened face in my hands.

"I'm so sorry chat" I say breaking down even more.

"Adrien" he says

"What?" I relpy with a wipe of my nose

"My real name is Adrien Agrest" he says with a hopeful look in his eyes.

"Someone should know" he says looking in my eyes.

I wipe my face and look at the slowly rising water that was now right below my shoulders.

"I have magic hair that glows when I sing" I say with a small laugh.

'Wait a minute'

"Wait is this some kind of joke?" he says unamused.

"We are about to die and yo-"

"No! I have magic hair that glows when I sing!"

The water was now to my throat.

"Flow gleam and glow, let your power shin-" I say as I take my last gasp of air.
