Chapter 7 Name Cleared, & Show Him Whose Boss!
In the previous Chapter, Chat Noir attempts to confess to Marinette after he kisses her, but can not seem to find the words. Marinette confesses she loves Chat Noir but knows she also loves Adrien. She struggles with what to do now.
In the current chapter, Marinette winks at Chat. "I better go, Chat!" Marinette says.
Chat Noir sighs as he watches her leave. He thinks, why do I love both her and the Red Bug?
Marinette arrives home safely. She says, "Tikki, I do not know what to do."
"What do you mean, Marinette?" Tikki asks.
"It was nice to help the heroes for a change; I do not know if I should give up my life of crime or not," Marinette says.
"Nadja Chamack here, with the latest news Rena Rogue has been arrested on suspicion of assisting in a kidnapping case, for faking her kidnapping, murder, and arson," Nadja reports
"You can not prove any of this, I am innocent, " Rena Rogue protest as the police take her away.
Marinette's jaw drops in surprise at what she just saw on the news.
"Wow, everyone it seems Red Bug has been cleared from all the kidnapping, arson, and murder charges brought against her," Nadja Chamack reports.
"She did help rescue me the other day, so I knew she did not have any part in kidnapping me, or anyone else. I also admit I had my doubts she destroyed any buildings," Nadja reports.
"Turns out Red Bad Bug is just a common thief, however, she did return three stolen goods and the people who got them back are grateful," Nadja reports next.
"Could it be she has turned from a life of a crime to a life of heroism? I believe it is only a matter of time before we find out," Nadja says.
Tikki looks at Marinette and says, " Marinette, you returned some stolen goods?"
"Yes, I sure did," Marinette remarks.
Chole saw the news from her apartment, and says, "Glad to hear the Red Bug is not a murderer or arsonist, she did help us out the other day."
"Yes, what a relief. Besides, I figured as much since she did not kill Chat Noir," Sarah says.
Nino says the news too, and thinks, "Rena Rogue turns out to be a crook, and Red Bug has all charges dropped against her except for being a thief,"
Nino shakes his head, and says, "What is the world coming to anyway?"
Chat Noir has detransformed at home, and says, "Yes, I knew she never killed those men, and I did not believe she would burn anything either."
"Plagg, do you think, Marinette hates me?" Adrien asks.
"What makes you think so?" Plagg asks in between bites of cheese.
"I told her I love her and she ran from me. Later, I kissed her as Chat Noir and she kissed me back. Maybe, she only loves me as Chat Noir," Adrien says.
"How can she when she has never seen me before as Chat Noir when I was not fighting crime?" Adrien asks.
Adrien sighs, he feels sad and his face is a bit pale.
"Adrien, what happened? You look like you saw a ghost." Plagg remarks.
"Marinette, she is Red Bad Bug, I can sense it," Adrien says sadly.
"Adrien, I am sorry I never told you, but Tikki told me not to tell you. How did you find out?" Plagg asks with tears in his eyes.
"I can see it in her eyes, the way she fears everyone and she confessed her love to me as Chat Noir both as Red Bug, and as Marinette," Adrien says. He sobs.
"Plagg, what do I do when the love of my life is a criminal? It is all my fault," Adrien says with tears down his cheek.
Adrien is upset now that he knows who Red Bad Bug is behind her mask.
Marinette still has not decided on what to do next. She is so worn out she falls asleep.
The next day, "Tikki spots on!" Marinette says. She transforms.
Red Bug looks around sees it is rather peaceful and quiet today. She thinks, hmm, what should I do next? She sees a bad person sneak up on Sabrina, and thinks, this will not end well.
Sabrina just walks around and does not even know danger is right behind her. The bad man pulls out a knife and tries to stab Sabrina. He misses when a red yoyo with black spots on it yanks the knife away from him.
"Hey, you leave her alone!" Red Bug yells at the man. She drops the knife into a trash can and does karate.
The creep is afraid, and says, "Ah, I am out of here!" He runs away.
"Sabrina, you all right?" Red Bug asks.
"Yes, I am okay, thanks to you, Red Bug, " Sabrina says.
"You are welcome, "Red Bug says. She swings away and thinks that was fun.
She smiles when she sees Kagami and waves at her. She returns the rest of the stolen goods and goes back home.
Kagami saw the entire fight Red Bug had with the mugger and thinks whoever she is, is a cool person.
Adrien saw the entire thing through his bedroom window. He smiles. "Plagg, she saved Sabrina from that mugger! Wow, she is incredible!" Adrien says.
"Incredible, ah! She is because she returned the stolen items," Plagg says.
Red Bug goes home, and detransforms. "Tikki it was funny to see the look on that guy's face, why I think he even wet his pants," Marinette says. She giggles.
"He tried to act all tough, but when you did the karate, he was all 'Ah, I am out of here!'" Tikki says.
"Does this mean you gave up your life of crime Marinette?" Tikki asks.
"I have not decided yet one way or the other, " Marinette replies.
