Marichat May 2023 Day 6: Rescue/Kidnapping

@marichatmay

(This is after deflagaration (kwami's choice part 2), season 5)

Ladybug and Chat noir managed to defeat the akumatized villain but they didn't do their usual fist pound with each other. "This is all my fault, my lady." Chat noir's face was filled with guilt and anguish as he whispered those words.

Seeing Chat noir in such a state broke ladybug's heart. The only time she has seen Chat noir in such despair was when she fought his akumatized version in an alternate universe.

"Don't be hard on yourself Chat noir, we won't let monarch harm civilians like Marinette." Ladybug reassured but it failed to make him feel much better. Her earrings were beeping which signaled that she needs find a place to detransform.

Ladybug knew that trying to comfort him as Ladybug would be futile, so right now Marinette is somewhat the only hope to lift the cat themed superhero's spirits. She found a hiding spot then she detransformed and gave tikki cookies and immediately ran to Chat noir's location.

He hated himself for being such a fool. If only he could have controlled himself around her as chat noir instead of being intimate with her that day. Now monarch is harming her to get to him and ladybug and he knows he will do it again. He really feels pathetic, scared and helpless.

"Chat Noir" yelled a a voice all too familiar to him and chat noir immediately turned towards the source of the voice. Marinette, the love of his life was running towards his direction. On any other time, he would have been happy to see her but not this time because after seeing her, he immediately began feeling guilty.

"I guess ladybug already left, I wanted to thank both of you for saving me from that akuma." Marinette gave her usually joyful smile to him. "Marinette let's go somewhere alone where no one can listen to us." Chat noir said with seriousness in his tone. He needed to tell her that monarch intentions on using her to get to him.

"Sure." Marinette knew chat noir was serious and she knew what he was about to tell her.

.

They ended up at the same spot where they shared a kiss. It was dark right now so the chances of someone listening to their conversation was very low. "Marinette, the reason the akumatized villain targeted you even though you didn't even know that person was because monarch knows about my feelings for you." Marinette had shocked expression on her face. "And I doubt it would be the last time he would use you to get to me and ladybug." The guilt and despair was now evident in his voice and expression and tears were forming in his face.

"I am sorry, Marinette. I am really sorry for being such a pathetic superhero and a failure. Because of me you are in this dangerous situation." Chat noir, was now weeping. Marinette hated seeing him in this much guilt and despair. She then embraced the crying superhero, inorder to comfort him. They were in this embrace for a while with chat noir slowly calming down.

"Don't worry chat noir, I have complete faith in you and ladybug to protect me from Monarch and I believe you two will definitely defeat him." Her voice has a quite soothing and encouraging effect on him,"Besides, this whole incident is somewhat my fault as well. I really should have known better-" "Marinette, I have said it once and I will say it again. You have every right to love me and maybe we could have been a couple under different circumstances, so don't blame yourself. Plus like you said, me and ladybug won't let anything happen to you."

Marinette gave him a smile, happy to see her partner brimming with confidence. "I should get you home, princess. Your parents must be worried." Chat noir said. "Yeah, I must go home before they get even more worried. " Marinette agreed with him. Chat noir grabbed her by her waist and then used his staff to take both of them to her house. While they were on their way, both were feeling very peaceful and happy with eachother.
