Chapter 1: Silver Claw Origins

Hey everyone I'm back with a new story. I love Miraculous Ladybug and I've always wanted to add my own character to it. Though because of the length of the chapters the updating will take a lot longer than the Nobody of Ever After High, but I hope you like what I have planned.

It was a bright and quiet day in Paris, everyone was going about their business like usual. Most people were talking about the city's heroes Lady Bug and Cat Noir. However, in one part of the city there was someone who had never even heard of them and he was moving into his new house right now.

Bringing in boxes from a moving truck was a young man about 15 years old, he had medium length black hair, light skin and brown eyes. He stood at around five feet nine and was wearing a grey hoodie with the zipper undone showing his blue t shirt and a pair of dark green cargo pants, and a pair of black and blue running sneakers.

This was Samuel Noctis or Sam for short. He was the only child to two very successful Tech company executives. He was raised in America where the company was built, but when they were offered a promotion they both jumped at the chance to move.

As Sam was bringing some boxes up to his room he found his mother setting up his computer. She had long black hair tied in a ponytail and glasses.

"Here you go sweetie we got wifi, dvd, and plenty of bandwidth for your programs." His mom said.

"Thanks mom." He said halfheartedly.

Reading his expression, she walks over and wraps him in a hug. "I know this move is difficult sweetie, but once school starts up and you start making friends you'll be happy you moved here."

"I don't know mom." He said.

"Please just trust me." She kisses his forehead before getting the remaining boxes from the truck.

Sam sighs. "I guess what do I have to lose?"

The next day Sam woke to find a note from his parents saying they had to leave for work.

"Even when we move to some new place mornings are the same." Sam sighs putting the note away but smiles when he sees his dad has his backpack ready and his mom had
his lunch.

A half hour later Sam was on his way to his new school, Françoise Dupont High School.

As he was walking along the sidewalk he hears groaning and sees an old man in a red shirt had fallen in the middle of the road. Looking at his watch he decided to go help
the man.

"Are you alight sir?" Sam asks helping the old man across the street.

"Thank you, young man that was very kind of you." He said patting Sam on the back.

"It was no trouble at all." Sam said walking away, not knowing the old man had slipped something into his backpack.

A few minutes later Sam had arrived at school.

"Well they say everything starts with a good first impression." Sam said walking inside. "Alright my first class is Literature with Ms. Bustier. Now where the heck -oof!" Sam
falls backwards as he bumps into someone.

He looks up to see it was a guy with blonde hair and light green eyes.

"Oh, sorry about that." Sam groans getting up.

"Nah no worries I'm sure it was an accident." He said picking himself up. "Hey, I don't think I've seen you around before are you new?"

"Yep family just moved here name's Sam."

"I'm Adrien it's nice to meet you." He said holding out his hand to shake.

Sam reaches out and shakes. "Hey Adrien, can you help me find my class? I'm looking of literature." Sam said showing him his schedule.

"Oh, cool you're in my homeroom, follow me." Adrien said leading Sam up the stairs.

As they walk up the stairs two girls passed by them one of the them had black hair with blue reflections and blue eyes while the other girl had curly brown hair, tan skin and hazel eyes.

"Hey, Adrien who's your new friend?" The girl asks.

"Oh, this is Sam he's going to be in our class Sam this is Alya and Marinette." Adrien said.

"Nice to meet you." Sam waves.

"Hi Sam pleasure to meet you I hope we can be friends." Marinette said

"Yeah that would be great." Sam said.

"So, Sam have you heard of the Ladyblog?" Alya asks.

"The what?" Sam asks never hearing of it.

Alya pulls out her phone and goes online. "It's a blog I made dedicated to all things related to Paris' local superheroes Ladybug and Cat Noir."

"Superheroes? No way." Sam said not believing it.

"I'm serious I've seen them in action they're the best. If you want to see them in action just subscribe to my Ladyblog." Alya said.

"Alright I'll subscribe." Sam takes out his phone and subscribes.

"Sweet come on let's get to class Alya leads them to class.

Sam's first day of class went pretty well when the day was almost over the Principal walks in with a special assignment for the class.

"You have one day to work on your fashion piece and it must be your own design. In 10 hours you will be judged by the great fashion designer Gabriel Agreste, father of our very own Adrien Agreste." He said causing Adrien to rub the back of his head in embarrassment.

"In fact, Adrien will model the winning design at his next fashion show. And the them is Derby Hats." The Principal announces.

"Well at least he said this thing is optional." Sam sighed in relief.

He gets up and walks over to Adrien. "Wow dude you and your dad must be a pretty big deal." Sam said.

"Yeah, I guess." Adrien sighed. "So, are you going to enter?"

"It's my first day I think I'm gonna take it easy." Sam said as they walked out of class to see Alya looking at a book full of designs.

"Wow Alya you've got mad skills." Adrien said causing Marinette to fall backwards startled.

"Thanks, but I can't take the credit Marinette designed all this." Alya said.

"Wow you're super talented. You've got a good chance at winning this." Adrien said.

"Well uh yeah, I like designs that go upwards." Marinette stutters causing Alya to facepalm and Sam and Adrien to look at her confused. "Uh I mean thanks."

"Well I gotta get back home it was nice to meet you all." Sam said.

"Sure thing, hey Sam if you ever want to see the city we'd be happy to show you around." Alya waved goodbye.

"Well good luck Marinette maybe I'll be wearing your hat at father's next photoshoot." Adrien said before walking off.

On the other side of the hallway two girls were listening in. An orange hair girl with glasses, Sabrina and a girl with blonde hair in a pony tail Chole daughter of the Mayor.

"Did you hear how impressed he was?" Sabrina asks.

"Of course, I heard. Her? Win the contest please. Once Adrien sees my design he'll have his father make me the winner." Chole said.

"Yeah you will Chole you're a born champion. You'll win for sure." Sabrina said.

"Yeah I will once I get my hands on that sketchpad." Chloe said looking at Marinette's sketch pad.

In the park overlooking the Eiffel Tower Marinette was trying to come up with a design for a derpy hat but was not having much luck.

"Geez it's hard to work under pressure." Marinette said when her kwami Tikki pops out of her bag.

"You save the world under pressure, designing a hat should be a piece of cake." Tikki said.

"A cake hat? Stylish and tasty." Marinette said laughing.

As Marinette comes up with design after design the pile of discarded paper gets bigger. As she was about to give up she notices a man sitting down at that bench calling lots
of Pigeons to him with a whistle.

As he starts feeding them a police officer comes over.

"Scram! Mr. Ramier we ghave told you time and again no feeding the pigeons! You have been banned from every park, now leave!" The Police ordered.

"But who will feed my poor pigeons?" He asks before being sent away.

"Poor man I almost feel sorry for him." Marinette said.

"He kinda looked like a bird man all he needed was a coat made of feathers.

"A feather jacket? Nice thinking Tikki." Marinette said.

By the river Mr. Ramier was sulking in sadness at what had just occurred when a black butterfly flies into his Pigeon whistle.

"Mr. Pigeon, I am Hawk Moth. Neither this Police Officer nor any other park keeper should stop you from taking care of your friends, what would Paris be without Pigeons?
What would Pigeons be without you?" Hawk Moth said as Mr. Ramier was akumatized.

Back at Sam's house he had put his backpack down on the couch as he was about to do his homework, he rummages through his backpack when he feels something unfamiliar. He reaches in and pulls out a small black box.

"Where did this come from?" Sam said looking at it.

He opens it and a bright silver light emerges from it when the light dies down a small silver wolf like thing was floating in the air.

"AAAAHH!" Sam reaches for one of textbooks. "Die you!" He tries to slam it down on the creature, but it dodges.

"Whoa easy pal I'm not gonna hurt you." He said causing Sam to jump.

"Whoa you talk?!" Sam said backing away in fear.

"Listen I know this is a lot to take in." He said.

"How do you know my name?" Sam asks.

"I'm a kwami the name's Faang and you my friend are in for world of surprises." He said.

Sam was breathing heavily. "Alright this obviously me hallucinating from stress I bet if I sit and put on some TV everything will be fine." Sam sits down on turns on the TV.

"We interrupt this program for a breaking news story Pigeons have taken over Paris. This is a matter of major concerns for authorities. I've just been told that someone
named Mr. Pigeon is making an announcement." The announcer said as the screen brings up a man in a Pidgeon suit on top the Eiffel Tower.

"Oh, dreary day for Parisians. Sorry to ruffle your feathers, but Paris belongs to the Pigeons!" He said making cooing sounds.

"What the heck is going on?" Sam asks.

"Sam this is why I'm here that's the bad guy and you and I need to work together to help the heroes bring him down." Faang said.

"Are you crazy?! I'm a High School student and you're the size of my hand how are we gonna beat him?" Sam asks.

"Listen you see that bracelet in the box?" Faang asks as Sam picks it up. "Put it on and I'll be able to help you."

Sam puts on the bracelet. "Now when we merge you will have a special ability called Moon Call which should only be used in emergencies."

"What kind of emergencies?" Sam asks a little scared.

"You'll have to figure that out Sam, come on these people need us. Hold up your arm and say Faang Teeth Out." Fang said.

"Uh Faang Teeth Out." Sam said as Fang goes into the Bracelet turning it Silver as his clothes turn into a silver and grey wolf suit, golden eyes are hidden by a mask, wolf
ears appear where his original ears are, and a wolf tail comes out.

When the transformation ends Sam looks at his new costume. "Whoa I look cool." He touches his hip and feels something. He lifts it up to see a sword with the end of the
blade shaped like a crescent moon. "Oh man this is awesome."

He looks to see Mr. Pidgeon was still on TV.

"Well Fang said I needed to help take him down, but are the ones I help?" Sam heads towards the window and takes a deep breath. "I really hope this works."

Sam jumps out the window is sent flying over rooftops screaming as he landed on top of a roof.

"Oof! Okay I really need to figure out this jumping thing." He groaned.

"Whoa there new guy that was some landing." Sam looks up to see a guy in a black leather suit with cat ears, a bell around his neck, a black mask, a tail and claws jumping
towards him from the next roof.

"I guess you must be the one my kwami told me to help." Sam groaned as the cat guy helped him up.

"Kwami? Whoa so we have another one. I'm Cat Noir what's your name?" He said bowing.

"I'm S-uh Silver Claw yeah Silver Claw." Sam said.

"Silver Claw? I like it." Cat Noir said as Pigeons were flying in large groups resembling airplanes.

"What the?" Silver Claw said.

"It just gets weirder and weirder." He looks to see a girl in a red suit with black polka dots, black hair tied back in pig tails, a red mask and a yoyo strapped to her hip.

"Birds of a feather flock together." Cat Noir said before letting out a sneeze. "Sorry I'm allergic to feathers."

"That's helpful." She said sarcastically.

"Tell me about it." He groans.

"Uh hi there." Silver Claw said nervously.

"Uh who are you?" She asks.

"Oh, Ladybug meet Silver Claw, he's here to help us." Cat Noir said.

"Help us? Thank you, Silver Claw but we don't need help we've handled things like this before." Ladybugs said.

"You're fighting a guy who uses nothing, but feathered birds and your partner is allergic to them." He pointed out.

"Touche." Ladybug said.

"These birds are only part of the problem. The park keepers are vanishing without a trace." Cat Noir said shocking Ladybug.

"What? We have to track down Mr. Pidgeon." Ladybug said.

"But where are we going to find him?" Sam asks.

"I don't know where we can find him, but I think I have an idea on how he can come to us." Ladybug said.

In park Silver Claw had a police cap on over his head.

"Uh why am I the one who has to do this?" He asks.

"Hey, you're the new guy so you have to do the things we don't want to do." Cat Noir chuckles.

"Wow thanks." Silver Claw sighs.

"Just try and act natural." Ladybug said as the two of them hid behind some trees.

As Silver Claw walked around the park none of them noticed a Pigeon was watching them.

About an hour later Silver Claw was still on fake patrol.

"Nothing's happening maybe if I did the dress up he would've come.

"He should be here by now, where is he?" Ladybug asks when Cat Noir lets out a sneeze.

"Uh guys I think he's here!" Silver Claw said as large flock of pigeons gathering together.

"What the?! Ladybug said as the Pigeons surrounded Silver Claw and carried him off.

"Come on hurry!" Cat Noir said as he and Ladybug follow the birds to the roof of a hotel.

"Oh man that's a lot of birds." Silver Claw said.

"Where's that Bird Brain Mr. Pigeon?" Cat Noir asks.

"I don't know, but he has to be around here somewhere." Ladybug said as they walked towards Silver Claw.

Above them Mr. Pigeon was looking down on them when Hawk Moth speaks to him.

"Another Miraculous holder very interesting. If you want to give Paris back to the Pigeons for good, you must now rid the city of those three pests." Hawk Moth said as Mr.
Pigeon grabs his whistle.

Hearing the commands, the pigeons fly around the three heroes trapping them.

"I feel a lot like birdseed right now." Ladybug said.

"Got any idea?" Cat Noir asks.

"You're the cat don't you eat these things?" Ladybug said.

"Will you two knock it off!" Silver Claw said when the pigeons brought down a cage on top of them.

"What the?!" Ladybug said shocked to see they were trapped.

They looked up to see Mr. Pigeon floating down on more of his Pigeons.

"Chirpy day! I'm so ruthless. Your Miraculouses give them to me now or face the wrath of my feathered friends. Mr. Pigeons said as all the pigeons took their positions
preparing to do their business on the three of them.

"On the count of 3 my pigeons will open fire, you can still save your sorry skins if you give me your Miraculous. One, two."

"Cat Noir the bars!" Ladybug said.

"Cataclysm!" Cat Noir said as his ring glowed allowing dark energy to surround his right hand as he scratched the bars the entire cage fell.

"Alright let's pluck the feathers from this bird." Silver Claw said drawing his sword as the three of them approached Mr. Pigeon who was backing away in fear.

"Well, looks like the pigeon is really a chicken." Cat Noir said.

"Me? I'm not flying away I'm just killing two birds with one stone." Mr. Pigeon blows his whistle before jumping off the roof.

The three of them gasp to see half of his pigeons had caught him and were flying him away while the other half was diving towards them.

As they headed towards them Silver Claw thought about what Faang told him. "Well this seems like an emergency. Moon Call!" Silver Claw's bracelet glowed as he takes a
deep breath before releasing a sonic howl attack sending all the pigeons flying backwards in the opposite direction.

"Whoa. Did you see that?" Cat Noir said.

"Maybe he could be a good teammate." Ladybug said impressed.

When the howling stops Silver Claw makes his way over. "Well that's one way to scare off a bunch of birds." He chuckles when his bracelet starts to beep along with Cat Noir's ring.

"Uh oh looks like we're about to transform back." Cat Noir said.

"Yeah you guys wouldn't want to let your big secret out." Ladybug said as they made their way down to the lobby where multiple guests including the Mayor Chole's dad were
trapped inside.

"Ladybug. Cat Noir thank goodness, I'm in real danger. Of losing money if my guests leave. You will stop these pigeons, right?" He asks.

"Of course, but me and friend here have some needs to take care of." Cat Noir said.

"Oh of course use the Royal Suite would you two like paper or a litter tray?" The Mayor asks.

"Uh no thanks, but do you have any Beef Jerky?" Silver Claw asks.

"Yeah no need for litter but could I have some camembert?" Chat Noir asks as they elevator goes up.

The Mayor looks at Ladybug in confusion but all she does is shrug.

At the Royal Suite Silver Claw and Cat Noir run in and slam the door.

"Thank you!" Cat Noir said when there was knock.

"Here is your Jerky sir, how would like your camembert?"

"Runny!" Cat Noir said as Silver Claw ran into the bathroom with the jerky just as the timer went off and Silver changed back into Sam and Faang.

"Oh man that was something else." Faang groaned.

"Faang what the heck was that? I mean I howled like a wolf and blasted all those pigeons away." Sam said

"That's the power of the Miraculous." Faang said eating the jerky.

"Man, this thing gets weirder with every turn. Can't we just leave it to Ladybug and Cat Noir those guys seem like pros?" Sam asks.

"Sam it's your first time and you're nervous, but you'll get better in no time." Faang said finishing his food.

"I doubt it, but I guess we better suit up." Sam said before changing back into Silver Claw.

"Bout time you finished." He walked out to see Cat Noir and Ladybug waiting for him.

"I found out where they're all going ready to go dog boy?" Ladybug smirks.

"Hey, I'm a Wolf not a dog." Silver Claw growls.

They followed the pigeons to the Grand Palais a historical exhibition hall and museum. Inside they saw all the park officials Mr. Pigeon abducted.

"Alright what's the plan?" Silver Claw asks as Cat Noir sneezes.

"My pigeon radar is on high alert." Cat Noir said.

"But where are all the pigeons?" Silver Claw asks looking around.

"Hang on I have an idea." Ladybug said leading them to the roof. "Listen Silver Claw the Bird call of his has an akuma if we can destroy it all of this will be fixed." Ladybug
said the found themselves right above Mr. Pigeon.

"Here's the plan Cat Noir opens the window, I yank him up here and you snag his bird call." Ladybug said.

Silver Claw nods as Cat Noir opens the window, but when he does pigeon feathers fly out causing him to sneeze startling Ladybug resulting in her missing and Mr. Pigeon
finding out they were there.

"So much for the element of surprise." Ladybug said as they jump down to attack.

As the three of them charge Mr. Pigeon calls his birds to him creating two giant fists.

"Come closer I have a bone to peck with you." Mr. Pigeon said ready to fight.

"I'd be honored." Cat Noir said when Mr. Pigeon swings his arm knocking him back along with Ladybug.

"Save us Ladybug!" A park manager said.

"Time for you dog breath!" As Mr. Pigeon charges Silver Claw draws his sword and blocks the attack.

As the two of them continue fighting Ladybug get back up. "Lucky Charm!" She throws her yoyo into the air and as it spins a coin is created from it.

"A coin? What am I supposed to do with this?" She asks before looking around to Silver Claw, the vending machine and the coin and then everything came to her. "Silver
Claw!" Ladybug runs toward him.

As Mr. Pigeon throws his Pigeon arm Silver Claw knocks it away as Ladybug wraps her Yoyo string around his legs, before Sliver Claw cups his hands together launching her
up in the air allowing her to tie the yoyo around a metal beam before putting her coin in the vending machine which gave her popcorn.

"Cat Noir!" Ladybug throws the bag into the air and Cat Noir throws his staff into it destroying the bag and spreading popcorn all over Mr. Pigeon. "Snack time!" Ladybug yells as the birds fly towards their snack. As he's distracted Ladybug yanks her cord pulling Mr. Pigeon into the causing him to drop his bird call.

"Cat Noir grab it!" Ladybug said as he picks it up, but the bird feathers cause him to sneeze and drop it. Ladybug gasps until she sees Silver Claw pick it up.

Silver grins as he smashes the bird call in his hands.

From it a black butterfly flies out.

"No more evil doing for you little Akuma. Time to de-evilize." Ladybug spins her yoyo catching the akuma and when she lets it go a white butterfly flies out. "Bye bye little butterfly. Miraculous Ladybug!" Ladybug yells as red lights shoot out returning the park managers to their original locations and Mr. Ramier back to normal.

"Huh where am I?" He asks.

"Pound it." Ladybug and Cat Noir said.

"Hey Silver Claw come on don't leave us hanging." Ladybug smiles.

Silver Claw smiles as he joins in the fist bump.

"Wretched Pigeons, wretched Ladybug! I'll destroy every one of you." Hawk Moth roared in anger.

At the front gate of the school Sam was sitting down on the steps with Faang on his shoulder.

"You know Sam you did pretty good for your first time being a hero." Faang said.

"Thanks, Faang I'm not gonna lie it felt pretty good saving that man back there." Sam said.

"So, do you still have your doubts about this whole hero thing?" Faang asks.

"A little, and it's going to take me a while to get used to it, but you know what I'm in." Sam said.

A smile appears on Faang's face. "Well then looks like we're a team."

"Guess so." Sam smiles before Faang goes into pocket.

As Sam was about to go inside the school he heard a familiar voice. "Hey Sam!" He turns to see Alya running towards.

"Hey, Alya what's up?" Sam asks.

"You are never gonna believe this." Alya takes out her phone and shows a picture of Ladybug, Cat Noir and Silver Claw. "Ladybug has a new teammate!"

"Whoa that's pretty cool." Sam said pretending to be impressed.

"I'll say views from the Ladyblog have hit an all time high because of this guy." Alya said walking forward.

Since her eyes were glued to her phone she didn't notice the last step and misplaces her foot causing her to fall backwards. "Whoa!"

Sam sees this and moves quickly catching her as she falls back. As the two of them look into each other's eyes time seems to stand still.

A small blush appears on both their faces.

Sam helps her up. "Uh you okay?"

Alya shakes her head snapping out of it. "Yeah, I'm fine, uh thanks a lot back there."

"No problem." Sam said.

"So, want to go see Marinette's design?" Alya said pointing to the hat contest inside.

Sam nods and the two of them make their way inside.

Before the contest was about to start Sam noticed the other designs, Rose and Juleka made a sort of Steampunk design on their hat while Chole seemed to make a feather
version of her hat.

Alya had her phone out and was calling Marinette, but no one was answering. "Where is she?" Alya asks.

"I hope Marinette shows up soon the contest is about to start." Sam said when a woman with black hair and glasses approaches the Principal.

"Hello, Mr. Damocles, I am Mr. Agreste's Executive Assistant Natalie." She said introducing herself.

"Hello Miss, pardon me, but where is Mr. Agreste?" Mr. Damocles asks.

Natalie holds up a tablet showing a man with blonde hair and glasses. "I'm here."

Surprised at the fact that he was not there in person Mr. Damocles looks down at the tablet. "Oh hello Mr. Agreste, welcome to our school."

"Adrien, take Natalie around." He said to his son.

Adrien leads Natalie towards Rose and Juleka's design first. As he examines it Marinette runs to her stand with her design in a box.

"Wow that was close." Sam said.

"Where have you been? Do you have your hat?" Alya asks.

"Yep, here." Marinette lifts up the lid to reveal her hat was exactly the same as Chole's hat.

"What the?" Sam said confused.

"Something wrong?" Marinette asks.

"It's the same as Chole's hat." Alya said looking at Chole's design.

"What? Oh, that thieving little brat!" Marinette said.

"That's just low." Sam said watching Chole show off Marinette's design as her own.

"Want me to take care of it?" Alya asks.

"I think I can handle this." Marinette grins confusing them.

Natalie and Adrien make their way to Marinette's hat and when Mr. Agreste sees her design a silent look appears on his face.

"Turn the tablet back to Ms. Bourgeois's hat." Natalie does so and sees they are the same. "Is this a joke?"

Chole fake gasps. "No fair Marinette copied my design! Scandalous!" Chole said fake sobbing.

"I apologize for the situation Mr. Agreste, but I can prove this derpy hat is my design." Marinette said getting his attention.

"Go on." He said.

"Everything is handmade from the embroidery, to the weaving, and the stitching. All done by myself and there's a special that only a true designer knows about. I signed
mine." Marinette turns the hat over to reveal her signature.

Sam walks over to Chole's hat and turns it over to reveal Marinette's signature. "Well how did this get here?" He said causing Chole to run off crying.

"Exquisite creation. You have the laboring hands of a hat maker, Miss…"

"Marinette." Adrien said.

"Congratulations on your design Miss Marinette. You're the winner." Mr. Agreste said.

Marinette and Alya smile. "Thank you, thank you, thank you." Marinette said excited.

"Adrien will wear your derpy on our next advertising campaign." Mr. Agreste said.

Adrien reaches over to grab the hat, touching Marinette's hands in the process. "Awesome job, Marinette." He said.

Marinette smiles as Adiren puts the hat on, bit once he does he lets out a sneeze.

"Sorry I'm allergic to feathers." Adrien said before sneezing again.

Sam looks at his new friends and then to his bracelet. 'You know I think I'm going to like it here.' He thought.
