Felix's balloon was ready in no time, soon he and Marinette would leave.

"And so my friends until I return Rena Rogue will take my place as ruler of the Emerald City."

"I will do my best to protect the city sir." Rena Rogue said. "Especially with such a brave strong turtle here." She said fluttering her eyes at Carapace.

"He, he." Carapace giggled while blushing.

"Farewell my friends." Felix said.

They were just about to leave when Plagg saw a woman with a green parakeet on her shoulder in the crowd. He leapt from Marinette's arms and ran to catch the parakeet.

"Oh Plagg, come back!" Marinette said getting out of the balloon basket. "Please don't go without me I'll be right back. Plagg! Get back here!"

"Somebody stop that cat!" Etain said.

He, Cat Noir, Carapace, and Marinette ran to catch him leaving the rope to the basket unattended. It untied itself causing the balloon to float off. By the time they caught Plagg he was halfway gone.

"Oh Come back! Come back!" Marinette cried. "Oh don't go without me! Please come back!"

"I can't come back I don't how it works." Felix shouted down to them. "Goodbye everyone! I'll write you!"

Everybody waved goodbye to the man as he disappeared into the air. Marinette burst into tears and began to weep harder than she ever had.

"Oh now I'll never get home." She sobbed.

"Stay with us then Marinette." Carapace said. "We don't want you to go."

"You're all so sweet but this could never be home. Not without Mama, Papa, and everyone else I love back home. They've probably forgotten all about me."

"No milady. No one could ever forget you." Cat Noir reassured her.

"I just...I miss them so much. What will I do?"

Suddenly all eyes turned to see a red bubble land in front of them which changed into Bridgette. The earrings on Marinette's ears turned into Tikki who flew before her.

"Good job calling me Tikki." Bridgette said. "I had a feeling my dear Felix might have trouble."

"Your dear Felix?" Etain said.

"Lady do you know him personally?" Carapace asked.

"Oh well I..." She blushed. "That's...a long and complicated story."

"Can you help me? Please." Marinette asked.

"You don't need to be helped any longer. You've had the power to go home all along, it's in the slippers."

"Why didn't you tell me?"

"Because the slippers wouldn't have worked unless you proved yourself worthy by preforming a good deed."

"But Wasp and Antibug could use them."

"Yes but they would never be able to unlock their full power, thank God for that but you have proved yourself worthy by preforming so many good deeds."

"All I did was melt a witch."

"No, you helped these nice boys when most people would just pass them by." Bridgette continued. "Now those slippers will take you home."

"Really?"

"Yes now say goodbye to your friends dear."

Marinette's happy face became sad again when she realized she would have to leave her friends.

"Will I ever see them again?" Marinette asked.

"Perhaps but not in this world. Once you leave I'm afraid you can never come back."

She turned to her friends who were fighting the urge not to start crying.

"Well it's going to be hard to say goodbye. I love you all too." She said. "You risked everything to help me I don't know how I can ever repay you."

"Your friendship and kindness is enough." Cat Noir said.

Marinette aproached Eatin.

"Goodbye Etain." He sniffled. "Oh don't cry." She dabbed his eyes with her handkerchief and pulled out his oil can. "You'll rust, here's your oil can. When you find that girl don't leave her okay? Because any girl would be lucky to be with you."

She hugged him.

"Now I know I have a heart because it's breaking." Etain sniffed.

"Goodbye Carapace." Marinette hugged him. "You know I'm gonna miss the way you would hide in your shell."

"And I'm gonna miss the way you were always so nice to me. Even after I was so mean to you at first."

She giggled a little and finally got to Cat Noir.

"You...You dropped this milady." He said. "I thought I'd hold on to it for you."

He handed her the corn flower he had given her earlier. She sniffed it and hugged him. "I think I'll miss you most of all." She whispered in his ear. "Don't forget me okay?"

"Never." He whispered back. "You'll always be in my thoughts."

She kissed his cheek and they parted.

"Are you ready?" Bridgette asked.

"Yes I'm ready, say goodbye Plagg."

She picked up her kitten and gave her friends one last sad smile.

"Now close your eyes." Bridgette instructed. "Click your heals three times." Marinette did as she was told while Bridgette waved her wand. "And think to yourself there's no place like home, there's no place like home."

"There is no place like home." Marinette repeated. "There's no place like home, there's no place like home."

The world around her began to disappear and she found herself fading into darkness again just like when she hit her head.

...

"There's no place like home." Marinette mumbled in her sleep. "There's no place like home, there's no place like home."

"Wake up honey." A gentle voice said.

The next time Marinette opened her eyes she was back in her room in bed with her parents by her side.

"Mama? Papa?"

"Thank goodness you're alright darling." Sabine said hugging her.

"Wha...What happened?"

"You got quite a bump on your head." Tom said. "For a minute there we thought you were gonna leave us."

"But I did leave you Papa and I tried to get back to you for days and days."

"There, there sweetie you only had a bad dream." Her mother said. "I'll go get you some tea to calm your nerves."

"I better go tell the boys you're alright." Tom said. "They've been worried sick about you."

"Boys?"

"You're friends Marinette. Don't tell me that bump made you forget them." He laughed as he went outside to tell the farmhands.

"Forget them? No! How could I? I just left them."

She gasped quietly when the three farm boys with familiar faces walked looking both concerned and relieved.

"Hey, remember me?" Adrien said kneeling by her bedside. Marinette put her hand to his cheek and stared at him in disbelief.

"Oh kitty! I thought I would never see you again." She cried hugging him happily.

"Ki...Kitty?" He said blushing. "Are you sure it's me you're talking to and not Plagg?"

"How you feeling kid?" Nino asked. "Hope you couldn't forget my face?"

"Or me?" Nathaniel said.

"Oh no." Marinette giggled. "I'm so glad you're all here. And I missed you all so much."

"Well do us a favor and stay away from windows the next time a twister comes." Nino said.

"Yeah, you really scared us." Nathaniel said.

"I'm sorry I didn't mean to cause any- Plagg? Where's Plagg?"

"He's right here." Sabine said carrying the black kitten in her arms before laying him in Marinette's lap. Plagg nuzzled her cheek. "He was hiding under your bed the whole time."

"Oh Mama please don't let Chloe take him. Please-"

"You don't have to worry about her anymore." Tom said. "One of the neighbors said she saw her hit Plagg before he scratched her proving he was just defending himself. Nino what was her name?"

"Alya. She and I marched down to the sheriff's office and explained everything." Nino said. "And if you ask me she's my kind of woman."

"Steady there Romeo." Nathaniel whispered. "We don't want another lovesick farmhand."

"I heard that!" Adrien said. "And I am not lovesick!"

"Oh no? Why don't you give Marinette the little thing you've been fiddling with since she got knocked out?" Nino asked.

"Nino zip it!"

"What? What is it?" Marinette asked.

"Oh...uh...well...You dropped this." He held up the white carnation he had given her. "I thought I'd hold on to it for you."

"Oh, Adrien you're so wonderful." Marinette giggled.

She took the flower and kissed his cheek. His face turned bright red and he smiled while the other boys quietly laughed.

"Oh keep quiet you two, Marinette needs some rest. Here drink some of this." She handed her a cup of tea.

"Mama, I'm so sorry I ran away really I am."

"That doesn't matter dear."

"But I shouldn't have and so I went back and then I went to a place a real place where some of it wasn't very nice but most of was beautiful. But all I wanted was to go home and I never wanna leave home again because I love you all very much and...Oh there's no place like home."

I hope you liked it. Any further questions or comments I hope they are polite
