Here, have part of the rewrite I’ll finish in 5 years at the pace I’m at (warning, I didn’t grammar check so sorry for any mistakes)

The room was dark and cold. He could barely make out his own hands in the darkness.

He looked at the small purple kwami looking up with wide, terrified eyes.

“Please master, you don’t-”

“Quiet.” He snapped at the kwami, “I- I’ve tried to move on. But I cannot. And since I’ve been reading those books… would it be possible? If I had both the Cat and the Ladybug miraculouses… could I do it?”

The kwami hung its head in disappointment and dread, “…yes master. But- but none of the miraculouses are out in the open at the moment! And you have no way to find the Guardian! Even I have no idea where he might be or if he even has the miraculouses anymore. I’m sorry but… I don’t think you’ll be able to find the miraculouses.”

He clenched his fists, “Well… if I can’t track down the Cat and the Ladybug… then I’ll just have to make them come out.”

“M-master? What does that mean?”

“The Cat and the Ladybug are meant to protect right? The miraculouses have the purpose to maintain peace and balance correct? So if one wanted to draw them out… it would just take chaos. The kind of chaos that cannot be stopped by police or ordinary people…” he looked down to his ring thoughtfully, was that truly something he could do?

“Master please! The miraculouses aren’t meant to be used in such a way! I understand that you are in pain but you cannot-”

“You understand nothing! Noroo… dark wings rise.”

The small kwami didn’t stop trying to reason as he was sucked into the miraculous.

He looked out the window.

If there was no way that he could find the miraculouses on his own, then he’d just force them to appear to stop him.

Marinette suspected it was going to be a bad day the second she woke up.

Which was, unfortunately, not a very surprising thing to her due to her unbelievable bad luck.

She jokingly blamed her mom since her middle name ironically meant ‘lucky one’.

But she quickly shook her head, determined to not let her bad feeling get to her. She would try to make this a good day. And if it just wasn’t a good day… then she’d do her best to make the best of it.

She hurriedly got dressed since she’d woken up a bit late and ran downstairs, spilling milk when making her breakfast and almost slipping on it as she went to clean it up.

“Sweetheart slow down.” Her mom told her as she cleaned up the milk, “The school is just a street away and you still have fifteen minutes, it will be alright. Do you think that you’ll have the same classmates as last time?”

“I don’t know ma. I hope not. I don’t… I’m not really… close with anyone. And if I have the same classroom as Chloe again-”

“There is no way they’d put you with Chloe again. Six years in a row?” Her dad questioned as he pulled off his apron.

“They’d better now considering how many complaints we’ve made against her these past years.” Her mom said, barely containing her anger, “If that little bi-”

“Sabine!”

“Girl weren’t the mayor’s daughter… who does she think she is treating you like that sweetie?”

Marinette shrunk into her seat, “It’s fine ma-”

“It’s not fine… but… let’s just hope you don’t have to deal with her this year. And if she does anything, you let us know and we will go to the Headmaster, we won’t leave until they finally do something about her little reign of terror.”

Marinette didn’t reply, using the excuse of finishing her breakfast to not tell her mom that she doubted they could really do anything.

“Okay, I’m off!”

“Hold up sweetie.” Her dad gave her a long box with macaroons, “These are for your classmates. Whether they’re new or old classmates, there’s nothing to break the ice and form bonds like a few pastries.”

Marinette couldn’t help but smile, standing on her tiptoes to kiss her dad’s cheek, “Thanks papa! Okay, not I’m really off-”

“Jiayi.” Her mom was the only one who called her by her middle name. Her mom went to the couch, picking up a gorgeous dark grey blazer with an white inside with pink polka dots, “Here.”

“Ma, it’s gorgeous.” Marinette turned around, letting her mom help her into the pretty blazer.

Her mom smirked as she gently adjusted the blazer, rolling up the sleeves to her elbows to show off the pattern inside, “I saw this and just had to get it for you.”

“Isn’t it… a little too much?” She asked, suddenly self-conscious at the thought of showing up at school with a blazer.

“It goes well with your outfit. And if you’re serious about being a fashion designer then you have to get used to experimenting and making a statement. Stop trying to be invisible Jiayi.” she finished as she tucked the strands of hair she’d purposefully left out of her pigtails to hide her face behind her ears, “Go sweetheart. Try to have fun.”

Marinette hugged her before going downstairs, nearly running into a customer and yelling an apology as she stumbled out the door and headed for school.

She could only hope everything would go well.

Adrien was out of breath as he ran.

He still couldn’t believe he was doing this.

He could just make out the school in the distance, his heart was beating wildly in his ribcage, he’d never done anything like this before.

But right before he crossed the street, a limo screeched to a stop in front of him, Nathalie coming out from the passenger seat with a serious expression, “Adrien. Get in the car.”

“Nathalie please-”

“Don’t make me repeat myself Adrien. Get in the car.”

“But-”

“Adrien!”

Adrien sighed heavily, hanging his head as he reluctantly opened the door of the car, slamming it behind him as he looked out the window.

Nathalie sighed as they moved away from the school, “I’m sorry Adrien but… this is what’s best for you.”

“It’s what my father wants. There’s a difference. What’s so wrong with me just wanting to be normal for once? To have friends? I’d do my best to do good in school you know I would Nat. Why do I have to be locked up all the time?”

“You are not locked up all the time Adrien.”

“Right, I only come out whenever my father wants me to do something that-”

“Adrien. Stop it.”

Adrien hit the door before collapsing against the seat, barely able to hold back his tears, Nathalie said nothing.

They arrived at the mansion, Gorilla gave him a sorrowful glance through the review mirror as he climbed out of the car.

Adrien dragged his feet as he went up the stairs, pushing the door open with his eyes on the floor.

“Adrien.” His father’s voice came from the top of the stairs, “You cannot, ever, disappear like that again. Understood?”

“Father-”

“Do you understand?”

“…yes. But father… I just want to go to school please!”

“No. That is final. You stay here where you’re safe-”

“Why wouldn’t I be safe at school? Gorilla can drop me off and pick me up I’ll never leave without waiting for him. Chloe goes there! Do you think the Mayor would let her go if he didn’t think she’d be safe there?”

“I said no.”

“Father-”

He started turning around, “Adrien stop this-”

“I’m nearly sixteen years old and I don’t have a single fucking friend!”

“Adrien!”

“What is so wrong with just wanting to-”

“STOP THIS!”

Adrien shrunk into himself at his father’s scream.

His father sighed heavily, looking away, more annoyed than anything, “I am busy. We might discuss this later. For now… go to your room. You have an important shoot tomorrow.”

Adrien stood still for a moment, waiting for his father to say something else. But Gabriel just pulled out his phone as he walked away.

“Adrien-”

Adrien ignored Nathalie calling him as he ran to his room, slamming his door behind him and locking it, dropping into a crouch as he started crying, digging his hands into his hair and pulling as hard as he could.

He felt so alone so empty.

He looked at the window, at the bars beyond that kept him imprisoned within these four walls.

He curled up on the floor as he shut his eyes tight.

Master Fu covered his face with his hands, his breathing uneven as he slowly looked at his small kwami, “Are you absolutely sure?”

“Yes Master.” The kwami insisted, “I recognized Noroo’s energy but it was… corrupted, dark. Whoever is wielding him… they’re practicing how to use his powers for evil.”

Fu cursed as he paced the small room, “I thought.. I’d truly believed Noroo was lost… if his power is used for evil… it could be a disaster in Paris…”

He glanced at the other two kwamis that he’d summoned, “Plagg… Tikki… no. No what am I thinking? They are not ready.”

“Master, we all have already chosen our next holders.” Tikki said as she got closer.

“They are far too young. We were to wait until they were at least twenty one. And you both know that I still have a few doubts about the holders we chose… it’s too soon. I was meant to train them properly before even giving them the miraculouses.”

“We know Master, but if this is true… then there won’t be time for proper training.” Plagg said, “If akumas are released on Paris when there aren’t Cat and Ladybug holders… then it will just be chaos. And not the good kind!”

“We have to go to our next holders Master.” Tikki insisted, “I’m sure that they will be able to handle it with our help!”

Fu shook his head again, still pacing, “They are too young. This is too much to ask of them.”

“We know Master… but we don’t have many options.” Wayzz said in a silent, resigned tone.

Fu sighed heavily, finally stopping, “I… I will try to track Noroo, if I can’t… then we will go to Miss Dupain-Cheng and Mister Agreste.”

Fu hated himself for even considering going to the children for this.

There had been younger holders in the past, but their stories hadn’t exactly ended happily.

He’d hoped there would be more time.

But if there wasn’t… then he didn’t have a choice.
