Marinette was sitting behind Adrien as she held Tikki and Plagg in the pocket of her coat, Adrien and the others were racing away from the Isle on their scooters. They had won the battle and escaped, she snuggled against Adrian's back after they exited the barrier. Then dawn broke the next morning as they arrived back at school just in time for the students to begin flooding the quarry for breakfast.

Marinette was being held close by Adrien as they all walked through the quarry all a little worse for wear, as the girl all clamored up to them.

"Marinette," Alya said as she and Mylene walked up to them.

"Hey, where have you guys been?" Mylene asked giving Ivan a look then to Marinette.

"Nowhere important whats going on?" Marinette said to Mylene.

"Come here," Mylene said showing Marinette her tablet with the revisions she sent to Mylene about the window.

"Hold on." She said looking back at Adrien who was sulking.

"Adrien do you want to cancel?" She asked him giving him a look of love and understanding.

But he didn't say anything and just looked at her in an uncomfortable behavior.

"I understand just take some time, think about it and let me know." She said before following Mylene.

Adrien turned to find his guys all having crossed arms and glaring at him.

"What?" Adrien asked them.

"We need to have a bro talk, don't we?" Nino said looking at his boss.

"What we haven't done that since we were kids before we went Rotten," Adrien said.

"Yeah well considering were trying to be good now. I think we need to bring it back. It is a good way to relearn about each other and help each other as we grow in Paridon." Kim said toward his boss.

"I guess," Adrien said rubbing the back of his neck.

"Everyone sit," Ivan said before causing an earthquake when he dropped on the ground, making the others follow him and they sat in a circle.

"So what exactly has been bothering you, dude?" Kim asked making Adrien take a deep breath.

"I am a mess, just months ago I was causing trouble and scaring people and now everyone expects me to be a Lord of the Court and I don't know how to do it because it just doesn't feel like me," Adrien explained looking around at his friends showing his dejectedness.

"Then don't dude. Be yourself and who you want to be not what other people expect you to be." Ivan said to Adrien knowing that because Ivan doesn't talk a lot whenever he does its always the truth and importance.

"Guys we always have to remember that were always gonna be the dudes from the Isle, we can't run away from that, The Isle will always be our roots, it made us who we are and we're never gonna be like everyone else here and that's ok," Nino said raising a leg to lean on his knee.

"I agree," Kim said as Ivan nodded in agreement.

"Let's promise to stop trying to fake being Paridon Kids and be the Isle Kids we are," Nino said making everyone agree.

"Yeah, I can't fake it without my spell book," Adrien said looking down at his lap.

"Cat Noir. If LadyBug can't love for who you are then she doesn't deserve you." Ivan said reassuring his friend and gang leader.

"I dig it," Nino said patting Adrien on the back.

"Give her a chance. Cool?" Nino continued with a smile.

"Thanks, you guys," Adrien said making them all get up and but notice Adrien didn't so Nino made a decision.

"Come to Cotillion tonight, and if in the morning you still want too then I will go back to the Isle with you," Nino said with all assurance.

"Nino I can't let you do that. You love it here." Adrien argued.

"I do love it here, but your my friend and boss first so I will follow you anywhere," Nino said but before Adrien could reply Kim and Ivan gave away that they were still there.

"Me too," Kim replied making Adrien look behind him and seeing Ivan nod.

"So try to be a Lord of the Court because if you don't, then we're all going back," Kim said smiling down at the blonde boy. Who then stood up and walked back to the dorms with his friends.

The Trumpets sounded getting everyone's attention.

"Introducing the future Lord Adrien Agreste." The announcer called out then moved so that Adrien walked out, wearing the suit that Marinette had designed and made for him.

It was made of the finest fabric but with the design in mind of the Isle, long pants of dark green with decorative patches of bright green and black and multiple chains and belts hanging off his hips, copied with a dark green military suit jacket that looked antique but had spikes, studs, and decorative patches it hung open to reveal a black dress shirt with decorative holes, and intricate designs sewn with cat paw prints in green thread in decorative patterns, then she sent him a fresh pair of black boots with chains, and with a large opening that allowed the pants to be tucked in comfortably. the gold decorations matched the blonde color of his hair.

He walked with all courage he was impressed at the style and design he felt himself but his courage wasn't lasting very long as many of his classmates stared at him.

He descended the stairs and met up with Marinette's parents.

"Adrien, you look great," Tom said shaking his hand

"Thanks. I'm still not sure about this but I want to at least try and be Miraculous." Adrien explained brushing his blonde hair out of his guylined green eyes.

A deep guttural chuckle caught his attention making him look at the Regent King. "I haven't heard that in years," Tom said looking at the confused boy.

"My daughter said the same thing when she was coronated as the official Princess when she turned 13. Try and be Miraculous." Tom said patting the boy's shoulders making him brighten at the thought.

"You and Marinette have a lot in common Adrien. She had the same problems your having and I will let you in on a secret that many don't know about." Sabine said becoming a gossiping young girl.

"Before Marinette was coronated she wanted to run away and she felt so horrible about wanting to abandon the Kingdom that she asked us to be banished to The Isle for bad behavior, she cried and kneeled for it." Sabine continued with a smile making Adrien give them a look of astonishment and he now felt better then he did before.

"I never thought she would be like that," Adrien said giving an easy smile in minor relief.

"She always has been. She is on her way." Tom said as Nino came up and patted him on the shoulder to lead him away.

"You look great Adrien," Alya said as Nino joined her once again.

"Thanks, Marinette really knows her stuff." He said pulling his jacket closer around him and taking a deep breath.

"How are you feeling?" Kim asked.

"Like I'm gonna throw up." He said taking a deep breath.

"Were right here with you," Nino said as they patted his back but they turned as the trumpets sounded.

"Queen Marinette." The announcer said making the curtains get pulled to reveal Marinette, wearing a black and red spotted gown with a patchy tulle skirt of black, red, green, blue, and yellow. The bodice was a strapless red corset with black dots and an overlay on top of the tulle skirt, with a red and black lace collar holding a red sheer cape. she had her hair done up in twin buns with long pieces of hair dripping with red streaks while her Queenly diadem stood proud on her head, and long black lace gloves ending at her elbows with chains and strings hanging from her wrists.

The crowd bowed as she descended and seeing her Adrien felt better he felt Nino push his back and he met her at the bottom of the steps where he bowed at her and she curtsied back.

He held out his hand for her and she took it before coming close.

"Adrien I wish I had time to explain." She said before turning just in time for Theo to come out. We wore a very handsome black suit that matched Cat Noir's suit his hair flared out in spikiness with green and black streaks and a lollipop stick hanging from his mouth.

Everyone gasped before looking at Adrien as Theo bowed before her and took her hand to kiss it.

"I'm Sorry Adrien, but when I was on the Isle something happened between Theo and me, I can't explain it." She said not looking at Adrien but gazing at Theo.

"What are you saying?" Adrien asked but he was ignored.

"Mari." He said barely touching her shoulder.

"Don't touch me." She growled out looking at Adrien as he backed away instantly noticing her purple eyes, he recognized it instantly, the same spell he dreamt of giving her himself in the candy apple.

"Mari?" He tried again but in a serious tone and without touching her.

"Adrien, take this with dignity or I will send you back to the Isle." She threatened giving him a look of pure evil.

He stood back and watched as Theo lead her to the dance floor and they began to twirl to the Foxtrot. Nino and the other came up behind him.

"Were with you, Adrien," Nino said pulling him by the shoulder to leave but Adrien just turned around to whisper.

"She has been spelled." He said to them in a whisper.

"Adrien?" Nino asked him in a condescending tone.

"No, listen before I ran to the Isle I dreamt of giving Marinette a spell, one that would turn her evil. I would never truly do it but I recognize it on her now, its a spell that bends the victim to the will of the caster making them fall in love and be like the caster the evidence is in the eyes it tints the iris with red. Marinette's eyes are blue but look now they are purple." Adrien said nodding to her as she twirled in the arms of Theo with a wicked smile she turned towards her friends to wave showing them her purple eyes.

"He found your spellbook." Nino said in realization.

"So what do we do?" Alya said worried about her best friend, and they all thought for a moment.

"True loves kiss can break it," Alya said in an epiphany.

"Have you guys kissed yet?" Nino asked making Adrien shake his head.

"I need to get close to her to do it though." He said looking at her again.

"I know how," Mylene said before running off making them watch as she goes.

"Nathalie announce the gift they need to see it," Mylene said running up the stairs.

Nathalie waved her hand and the trumpets sounded.

"And now for the special gift designed by Queen Marinette for her Lord," Nathalie announced making everyone look as the drape was removed to reveal the window.

Adrien gasped in shock as did everyone else even Marinette stopped remembering something about it. The window depicted Marinette in her current gown but with a knee length skirt instead of floor length, black tights with red patches and red leather ankle boots with a 2 inch high and 2 inch thick heel, with her LadyBug mask on and long red ribbons tied around flowing curly ponytails and holding her Yo-Yo against the curvy white side of a YinYang sign standing in battle mode, while Adrien was wearing a black version of his suit he now wore but with paw prints, his hair was blonde with green streaks with a princely diadem on the crown of his head, and his eyes a glowing green he had an evil look on him as he held his baton in his cat noir fighting stance while the black side of the YinYang sign was behind him and perfectly fitted with Marinettes white side, the background was a night time paris all aglow in nightlights with the rising moon behind them.

Adrien was awestruck he recognized the design of Marinette her name was designed into the window, he then turned to an equally awestruck Marinette and he saw the purple falter in her eyes.

"Mari?" Adrien said making her look at him as her eyes were sliding from purple to violet.

"Cover that back up," Theo growled at Nathalie but she held her poker face and ignored him, while everyone looked at him.

"Why don't you tell everyone what gift you have for me Marinette?" Theo said making her look at him and the purple came back.

"I have an announcement." She said but Adrien was quick he pulled her back to him.

"No, Marinette you have to fight it. I know you're stronger than this. Look at the window you designed that for me and I love it. That is me I never thought you understood who I am but you do. you don't love him and we both know that. You love me and I love you too and I'm sorry it took me so long to say it but I was scared that I wasn't worthy of you or Paridon. I'm Sorry Marinette but believe me, my Queen, I won't ever forget it again." He said as he watched her falter between looking at Theo who was being held back by Ivan and silenced by Kim, he saw her eyes falling into the natural blue shade.

"And I won't ever let you forget how much I love you." He said before he pulled her close and pressed his lips against hers, he felt electricity run through him at the contact and loved it and felt her slacken against him in his grasp.

He pulled away and saw Marinette, her eyes it's natural bluebell shade and her smile of a loving Queen.

"Give me the Miraculous," Theo shouted attacking Adrien and pulling his hand for his ring.

"Guards seize him," Marinette shouted.

Theo was surrounded after Adrien threw him off until everyone looked up and saw the purple monarch butterfly.

"Dad?" Adrien said before the butterfly flew down and landed on Theo's matching ring and dissolved within it.

"No," Marinette shouted before a thick black and purple cloud covered Theo and emerged was the familiar large purple butterfly.

"AhHaAhhaHAhaHAHhAH" They creature cackled.

"I am free once again." He shouted.

"True Loves kiss won't defeat this," he shouted at the party down below before snapping his wings and making gusts of wind blow them around.

Adrien walked away and into a good clearing letting his eyes glow.

"Plagg, Claws out."

"Adrien?" Marinette said looking at him and making him look at her before a green light enveloped him and out came Cat Noir he growled the loudest growl aimed right at the butterfly, everyone covered their ears then watched as the panther leaped high and mighty scratching the wings of the butterfly making it falter before shoving the panther back down on the dance floor.

Marinette watched as they fought until she felt her partner in need of her assistance, she felt the power growing within her making Alya look.

"Tikki, Spots on."

"Marinette?" Alya asked as her friends eyes glowed red making everyone look at their Queen in time to see her getting covered then a pink light then revealing Ladybug, she ran and jumped to the aid of her partner.

"Adrien we need a plan. He is different now." Ladybug said grasping her partner's hand.

"What are you thinking?" He asked.

"We can combine our powers."She said grasping his other hand making him look at her she pulled her power making her eyes glow red and he did the same making his eyes glow green, the crowd and the butterfly watched as the 2 heroes were engulfed in a swirling puff of pink and green smoke that looked like strawberry and mint swirl ice cream.

Once the smoke cleared everyone was met with a black dragon, it bellowed smoke from its nostrils, as it glared at the butterfly with its cat-like green eyes, it had black fur covering its body that rippled in the wind as it flew around it had buzzing ladybug wings that held it up in the sky and the Ladybug shell shined in the night lights of Paris shining off of it.

The dragon roared from deep within making the crowd watching cover their ears, then a black fire rumbled from the dragon and blasted right at the butterfly though he tried to fly off but the fire was faster, the butterfly's wings caught fire and disintegrated immediately.

The body fell back on the dancefloor and was instantly immobilized by the guards, the dragon flew around and the crowd noticed it was trying to land so they all ran from the dancefloor allowing the great dragon to land in a swirling mass of black smoke then separated into green and pink smoke.

The different colored smokes separated again into their own masses the disappearing to reveal Ladybug and Cat Noir the same way as in the window, Marinette and Adrien looked over themselves and then at each other Marinette jumped right into Adrien's arms and he caught her then swung around laughing as the crowd gathered around them, their friends quickly pushed through to give them all a group hug.

Ladybug finished with her friends and quickly regained herself.

"Bring him forth." She called out making the guards pull the struggling man forward he was a perfect mix of HawkMoth and Theo, with HawkMoth's mask, Theo's hair, and a purple and black catsuit.

"Don't think this is over." he screeched as Ladybug and Cat Noir walked forward though Theo struggled he was held in place easily, Cat noir grabbed his wrist and yanked off his mock cat ring and tossing it on the floor right in front of Ladybug, she quickly stomped on it smashing it and the crowd watched as the Akuma flew out.

"No more evil doing for you little Akuma." She said releasing her Yo-Yo and making it fly capturing the nasty bug.

She pulled her Yo-Yo back and released the now glowing purple butterfly.

"Bye-Bye little HawkMoth." Ladybug said in a gentle tone then looked at Cat Noir as he said: "Goodbye, Father." He released a few tears as he watched the pure butterfly fly away he felt her warmth as she enveloped him in it, looking down he saw her cuddling up against his side and giving him a caring and understanding smile, He wrapped her up in his arms as they felt their transformation go off only having their masks and weapons removed, Tikki and Plagg both flew out of their respective Miraculous; in exhaustion but they were easily caught by a butler carrying a pillow, both moaning and looked up at their chosen's with smiles.

"Take them to the Buffett please," Marinette said with a smile making the butler nod his head and walking away.

"You saved me, again." She said looking up at him with a laughing smile, which he returned with a half smirk then jerking her toward him catching her lips against his making her squeal in surprise, then relax in his grip, they only spent a good minute making out as Nino and Alya decided they needed to calm down.

"Alright, alright." they both said grasping their friend shoulders.

"I can't thank you guys enough. If there is anything I can do please let me know." Marinette said looking around at her friends.

"I have one," Nino said making them all look at him.

"There this girl Juleka, we grew up with her she is like a sister to us and she would really love to come to Paridon and I know of many others that are like us who deserve a second chance, could I get you a list and we can get them to come?" Nino said motioning to him and his Isle brothers making them nod.

"I would love that Nino." She replied with a smile making him smile and hug her in thanks.

"Lord Adrien." A guard said coming through the crowd.

"We found your spellbook." He said handing it to him.

"Thank you, but I think this would be safer in the hands of Master Fu. Master Fu?" He said calling him out as the little man pushed through.

"That's me, I will take that thank you." He said gently taking the book from the boy then scuttling off following the guards who were dragging away the arrested and unconscious Theo.

"I don't need it anymore," Adrien said looking at the smiling Marinette.

After a few great hours of dancing the night was coming to a close, Adrien and Marinette were sitting at their royal table with their friends as they watched the loud and fast-paced chicken dance that their classmates were challenged to who can survive the longest.

Marinette sipped her club soda while she leaned against Adrien who had his arm wrapped around her shoulders.

"Mari?" He asked making her look up at him.

"What does it mean to be your Lord anyway?" He asked wanting to make sure he does his job accordingly, but his smile faltered when she straightened up to look at him they were close enough they could talk without anyone else hearing.

"It is an original custom back when the Kingdom first began, it is allowed that young and unmarried heirs be coronated as King or Queen however they need a law to make sure an heir to the throne could be persued, so if the King or Queen has a partner they wish to date or to be with then if they do not have a royal title they can be given one hence the Cotillion that way the King or Queen can be 'intimate' with their chosen Lord or Lady so that an heir to the throne can be bared," Marientte explained grasping his hands while she watched his eyes go wide and then clear his throat before taking a sip of his drink.

"Now there is the option of a break up, but you will get to keep your title that you were given after your last Cotillion so if we were to break up now you would still be a Lord, and if I were to get pregnant you would also be given the title of Royal concubine as well as Father to the future King or Queen and aid in their upbringing while you are no longer required to fulfill your duties as concubine after the breakup. But this rule has never been enforced so we don't have to do anything until we both are ready even if that is in say 7 years down the road and after our wedding if there is one." She said calming him down.

"I..." He tried but voice came out in a high pitched squeak, which he cleared his throat and took a drink.

"I understand. Thank you for explaining that." He said puling her close again with a smile, and a deeep blush, she leaned into him giving him a kiss before settling into him with a sigh.

"You sure we dont have to do it? Because I don't mind." He said trying to be cocky with a smile.

"Don't you try to act like a cocky virgin, I know of your history you naughty kitty." She said booping his nose.

"History?" he asked quirking an eyebrow.

"Chloe?" SHe said with an understanding smile, then laughed as he groaned and put his hand over his eyes while leaning back.

"What did she tell you?" He asked behind his hand.

"Every dirty detail." She said still smiling.

"She never really did know how to keep her mouth shut. I can promise you that was a long time ago," he said looking at her to which she cocked her head to the side and gave him her understanding msile again.

"Its ok. I knew you had some sort of past and I would have to face it one way or another. Things are different on the Isle. I know that now, they are my people too and I plan on helping them in any way I can." She said hugging his torso while nuzzling her face against his chest.

They stayed still and silent for a moment until Adrien opened his mouth again.

"So you wanna talk about how our souls were bared before each other in dragon form?" He asked making her look at him with an incredulous look while he smirked and wiggled his eyebrows.

"Never." She said with a serious look before smiling and nuzzling him again while he laughed at her innocence.
