Chapter 2- The New Me

Adrien sat at his desk looking at the clock. It was almost lunch and Nino has no news from Alya on Marinette. Alya had wen to the principal's office a little bit ago. He need to know if she's OK. The bell rang and everyone got up and started towards the door. Adrien waited for Nino and they headed out. They saw Alya coming down the stairs to them and a worried look stuck on her face. Adrien immediately thought the worse.

"Nino, we have a problem." Alya said. Nino brought his gaze to Adrien and Alya huffed." I'm not talking to him because he is part of the problem."

"How?" Adrien said.

"Cause you broke my best friends heart and now she's missing." Alya let a few tears slide.

"What!"

"Yah I called Marinettes parents cause I couldn't get ahold of her and they said she wasn't home. It's been hours, you guys. I called them fifteen minutes ago." Alya burst into tears and Adrien froze. She had been in trouble and he walked away. He balled his fist and gritted his teeth. Nino looked at him as Nino held the crying Alya. Nino saw his angry and gave him a look like " don't go getting ideas." Adrien started to turn when the school doors opened. The sun block their features but they stood tall. They started to walk in and slowly their features showed. They wore jeans and a tank with a jean jacket. Their hair flew freely down and soon their face was visible.

"Marinette?" Adrien said. This caught Alya's attention and she looked up. Marinette looked different and it was a bad different. She walk over to them as all the students gapped at her look.

"Who is that?"
"I think it's Marinette."
"No, can't be."
"I think it is."

Marinette continued to walk up to them. On the way, Chloe caught sight of this and went up to her.

"Ha. Sporting a new look. If you think that this will win you points, you've got....." Chloe didn't finish. Marinette had looked at her and that was it, Chloe back away immediately and went back to her spot. Adrien was shocked, Chloe would never back down. Marinette finally reached them and pulled Alya into a huge. Marinette look into her face.

"You shouldn't cry. I'm OK." Marinette smiled. Something was off about Marinette and Adrien couldn't place it. That's when he noticed. Her eyes weren't blue, they were purple. The two of them walked away and Adrien stood back to only think, what happened?

Marinette opened her eyes, Hawkmoth hadn't returned and she only thought the worse. What if he leaves me here to die? She shook her head. No! She is ladybug, she will find a way. She fumbled with her non broken arm and found no use to get the restraints off unless she did something that would either have no success or work. Let's hope she still has her luck.

She kicked off her shoes and wiggled her feet. The biddings loosened until she was able to slide her feet out. She stood up and her arms still tied to the chair, she headed in the direction to the door. Now comes the part she hoped would work. She twister her body and did a big swing at the wall. The chair cracked and she felt the ropes loosen. She hit it again and her hands feel free. Her broken arm shot with pain as she let it fall. She heard footsteps rush along the hall and the door slammed open.

Hawkmoth walked in and shut it behind him. His window opened and he had a good view of the broken chair. Where did that brat go? He listened carefully and then heard her. Just behind him, ha, fool. He swung around and collided his cane with her. Her flew and slid across the floor. The butterflies flew up and away from Marinettes fallen body. She slowly gets to her hands and knees but is kicked down by Hawkmoth. She coughed and blood came with it.

"My friends. Will. Notice. My disappearance." She was trying to breath but she keep chocking on the air. Hawkmoth knelt down and looked at her.

"Oh No. They won't. I made it so you won't be missing. To everyone in Paris, your in school right now. So no one knows your here. Get comfortable. You'll be here for a while." He took a knife and ran it down her cheek, and arm. She screamed, and felt the blood flow out of the wounds. He stood and walked over to the door but before leaving he said: " Don't worry, you won't be here for long." He shut the door behind him and Marinette layed on the floor bleeding.

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

Adrein couldn't stay at school. He needed to find out what happened to his friend. He look over and got a glimpse of Marinette. She was sitting with her feet propped up on the desk. She was on her phone and ignoring all around her. This isn't Marinette. Alya was looking at her with a concerned look. She looked over at him and made a motion to the door. He nodded and raised his hand.

"May I go to the bathroom?" Adrien asked. The teacher nodded and continued to teach. Adrien got up and walk out. He stopped around the corner out the classes view and waited. A few minutes later, Alya walked out and joined him.

"What the hell is wrong with Marinette?" Alya asked. He shrugged.

"I don't know but did you see her eyes? They weren't blue. They were purple." Alya's eyes widened.

"You sure? Wait. Now that I think about it, yah. Her eyes. How did you noticed." She gave him a wide smirk.

"Um." Before he could say, a load bang came from the class. They rushed over and opened the door. There stood Marinette smirking at the gue covered Chloe.

" Oops." Marinette said. Chloe screamed running past Adrien and Alya. Marinette started to laugh and the teacher looked over at her.

"Marinette, to the principal's." Marinette glared at the teacher and started to walk but before passing she whispered to Adrien.

"Bye bye, pretty boy." Adrien needed to get to the bottom over this and fast.

The day went by fast and all he could think of was Marinette. He started to exit the school to head home but Alya stopped him.

"What if she was akumatized?"

"What?"

" I know it sounds weird but she was upset and that's what Hawkmoth likes right? But she would have turned into a villain. Not a bully." Alya placed her hand on her head trying to think.

"What if this is Marinette at all?" Adrien asked. She was right, Marinette would have turned into a raging, out of control, akuma but didn't. What if Hawkmoth has her?

"What if Hawkmoth has her?" Taking the words straight from his brain.

"Maybe. We can put more clues together tonight. I have to get ahold of Chat Noir and see if he can help." Adrien said.

"You know Chat Noir?"

"You could say that." Adrein headed to his car and got in. Heading home.
