My third ever edit. Made a second time cause apparently saving doesn’t work without internet 🤨 (Made during ZIMMERSTUNDE) Also apparently this word doesn’t have a translation for it, but it’s a break between shifts longer than one hour.
A fanfic that starts with Adrami and a Marinette being so heartbroken, relateable, and just how the fandom sees adrami in the first place to then being emotionless until she meets Luka who starts to make her feel again slowly. And it turns to a Lukanette fic.
Instead of wasting 3 hours of my break on going home and forth by PT, I try to make myself useful with PicsArts on my tablet (I’m new to it and have no experience, so I’m mostly trying out the filters I have offline)
This is inspired by the first chapter of Wedding in Japan, one of my fics on Ao3, Wattpad and Fanfictionnet.

Adrien, a young and egocetric Nascar-racer has been throught the last racers of his young career winner of the first price and on his current race his goal was to to beat the record as the rookie with the most wins and to have a chance to get sponsored by the Chinese legacy, where Wang Fu, a veteran racer has been the past 40 years.
Due to disagreements between himself and the Agreste crew, he keeps refusing to let the crew change wheels during the race and near the finish line his tires crack and he arrives at the finish line at the same time as his main rivals Wang Fu and Felix Graham de Vanily.
After the ceremony the three are invited to race against each other to solve their issue on another racing track and Felix bets with Adrien, that if Felix wins the race Adrien has to owes him half of his earnings and vice versa Felix does the same to Adrien if he loses.
Adrien’s driver tried to convince him, that he should do the necessary things for his car or next time he could have had an accident and eventually die. Adrien doesn’t believe it would ever happen, but assures the driver it will be fine, it was just this time. Days passed and Adrien sat in his vehicle in the trailer of the truck talking with his agent, which also was his father and got convinced him and the driver to stay awake and drive the whole night long, so Adrien could practice earlier for the race. During the night Adrien’s truck is attacked and the driver released the trailer leaving Adrien’s vehicle behind and Adrien is waken by cars honks and Adrien notices he’s not on the trailer and races the highway along trying to find his driver and enters the wrong exit ending up being pursuied by a policeman named Roger, which arrests him after he accidentally detroyed the city’s belongings.
Meanwhile the driver had set a missing notification for people to look for Adrien Agreste or his last whereabouts and the driver explains, what happened.
Adrien wakes up finding himself in a jail and yells out his innocence and is encountered by Wayhem, which introduces himself to him and tells him about the town he was in. Roger appears and lists down everything Adrien caused last night with his car and showed his vehicle on the outside full of scratches and bumps, making Adrien whine about his “baby”. Escorted by Roger to the court he meets the judge Armand D’Argencourt, who after Adrien sigh bans him immediately without anymore words earning convtroversial reactions from the present townies. Before he gets freed by Roger one of the townies raises the hand and that person was a young woman around Adrien’s age, which stated the choice wasn’t a good one and suggested the best justice for Adrien would be community work and he would have to fix all the mess he caused to pay for his “misbehavior”
Attracted and annoyed by the Japanese-descendant lawyer of the town he is escorted to his first job by Wayhem, which was to put cement around the town’s statue of their founder. Unmotivated Adrien was trying to cement the ground and Wayhem suggested him if he would be more motivated, he could be faster and be able to leave the place without any more problems and Adrien follows Wayhem’s ideas and fixes everything in a few hours.
The judge Armand D’Argencourt came back and was horrified by his deeds and ordered Adrien to start all-over again and Adrien denies it and argues with the judge until Armand came to the conclusion to bet for the two to race together and the loser would have to fix the road. During the race Adrien suffers an accident and is patched up by the lawyer Kagami, which Armand had sent as she was one of the fewer people, that wouldn’t mind to deal with him. Kagami tells Adrien he has to re-do the things he did and do them all over again, but notices he’s pissed with everyone and says he should have done it right since the first time, so his car wouldn’t be ruined and half of his tasks were done.
The next day the citizens encounter the statue’s ground fixed with new planted plants around it and two light poles were fixed and everyone was impressed by it. Ivan and Luka had out of fun said, the town needed a new make-over and in the next hour the two had decided to fix their garage from both sides to make it look better and on the other side the owner of the gas station Lila had the same idea and had help from her artsy neighbor Nathaniel. Armand was fascinated, by what was going on and went to look around for Adrien and encountered him on the racetrack he had have an accident the other day trying to manage to pass by the two last curves, which he never made it without slowing or braking down.
Armand compliments him about his deed and gives him a tip for his driving, which Adrien didn’t quite get it and he tried it out, causing to wreck the second vehicle he borrowed from the confiscated vehicles of agent Roger’s parking spots.
With the time Adrien is working on his tasks, the townies managed to befriend him a little, including Kagami, which owned a small pension and offered him a room for him to overnight. Before the night Wayhem accompanies Adrien out of the town for the two to race together on a e-bike through fields at the farm of a farmer, which Wayhem claimed to be dead. Adrien find Wayhem was being ridiculous, cause it was strange for the goats there to be alive after all those years. While the two together annoyed the goats on the E-bikes out of the farm appeared a old man, which yelled at them scaring the two, then released his shepherd at the man to scare them away and the two escaped.
The next morning Adrien is looking for Armand as he needed his word and he enteres into his garage, where he encounters an old racing car and takes a closer look of it and finds out, Armand D’Argencourt was a famous racer and is caught by Armand, which scolds him for his behavior and after many questions of Adrien he answered, what had happened and why he was here. Adrien felt insulted about Armand’s hypocrisy about both of their differences and left him going to the gas station to get some coffee, where he mets half of the townies and Kagami asks Adrien, if he would drive with her around. Roger tells her to be careful on who she trusts and she assured him she trusts Adrien with all of her heart making Adrien feel weird at her action.
Adrien is surprised at noticing Kagami owned a sports vehicle and enjoyed with her their ride in it and soon Kagami ordered him to stop on the parking stop with a street heading up the rocky mountain and she asked the blonde to accompany him and show him the view to their town and the rest of the places far away from them. Adrien finds out, that Kagami used to live in a large metropolis, but got with the time sick of that live and left the place without having a clue, where to go until she broke down and landed in this town and stood due to the hospitality of the townies and their loyalty. Adrien got to know Kagami better and their town and felt bad to know, that their town’s popularity had sunken after several constructions out of their range.
While Adrien worked on the last task he observed Kagami talking with the other citizens, then pondered on any ideas to help out the town and the next day as everyone saw the messed up things were fixed, they were sad about Adrien’s exit, but Adrien showed up along with Marc and told them, he just went to help the firefighter man to do some stuff they would see at night. Roger reveals to Adrien, that half of Adrien’s vehicle was fixed and he could ask Wayhem to tow his car and accompany him at his escort to the next city to inform about the disappearance. Adrien asked, if it was okay if he first asked Luka’s crew to continue to fix his car and for Nathaniel to color it afterward. The three men were excited and observed the racing car being fixed and the rest of the day Adrien fulfilled everyone’s wish as a customer, including getting his arm tattoed with “I love my mama”
At the night Kagami was called to meet the townies at Marc’s garage, where they introduced a nicely dressed Adrien and his racing car in new colors and wheels exciting Kagami for Adrien’s success and his deeds for the townies. Adrien revealed, that he spend the whole night with Marc to exchange all the lights around the city, making Kagami happy as the town looked like it was a few years ago, when the town was more popular. Luka brought out with Ivan a stereo system to play loud music for all to dance together. Adrien began to see Kagami in a different light and during the dance he leans in for a kiss, but is interrupted by Wayhem, which mentioned to have seen a large crowd of vehicles heading to their town and as they approached Adrien shrieked realizing that those were journalists and paparazzis, which surrounded Adrien with questions and he tried to get out of there to his new-made friends.
Adrien’s driver appears too and apologizes him for what happened and mentioned, that he needs to bring him back or he will get fired. Adrien tries to get out of the crowd stopping by Kagami, where he tries to talk with her but couldn’t come out with something and as Adrien’s driver announced him he would get fired because of not convincing Adrien to get back into the car, Kagami tells Adrien to go and thanks him for his amazing job with the town, then both are separated by the journalists and Adrien is guided into the vehicle along with the driver and the crowd departed leaving the townies back and Kagami caught on the leave one of the journalists talking to Armand, which confesses in the end, that he told the people about Adrien’s whereabouts making the townies sad, mostly Kagami and Wayhem, which left the man back, followed by the others leaving Armand back, which felt disappointed about his decision.
The next day Adrien was on the racing track with his fixed racing car and he couldn’t concentrate on his race and entered into the pit stop box, because he wanted to quit, but to his surprise he encoutered there all the townies, including Armand D’Argencourt, which admitted he had done a mistake and wanted to help Adrien out on his race. Adrien continued his race following D’Argencourt’s instructions and tips, getting the lead of the race for the rest of the rounds. On the last round Adrien continues to lead in the race with Wang Fu and Felix behind him trying to surpass Adrien. While Wang Fu tried to keep Felix back on the third place Felix tried to pass beside the veteran and hit him on his back, causing him to loose his control and fly out of the track crashing on the outside of the road shrieking all the viewers, including Adrien, which witnessed it by seeing it on the screens over the arena. Adrien stopped his car before he could pass the finish line and turned around to help Wang Fu out of the car and sat him back inside his car and is questioned about his deed and Adrien confessed to him, that winning didn’t matter to him anymore and after Felix won, Adrien offered to help Wang Fu finish his last ride today, which he accepted.
After the race Adrien thanks Armand and the townies about their appeareance and is interviewed by journalists and Adrien apologizes on live for his past behavior and promised to be a better person from now on.
Days later he appears with the rest of the townies back on the city and encounters Kagami on the rocky mountain, where she was observing the town and informed Adrien, that she had seen him arriving. Adrien announced her he would want to move there to be close to his friends and mainly to be with her, earning a smile from the lawyer, which pulled him into a kiss and confessed, she had been eagerly waiting to do that after knowing he would return.
Kagami stood on the other side of the road along with her husband Adrien Agreste gazing at the kindergarten, where they saw through the window all the kids cleaning together the classroom.
"12:24 is it now" Adrien pointed out as he checked his smartphone to see the time. "They're usually done at 12,"
"Maybe something took longer or there was a kid's birthday and they brought cake and drinks"
"Could be" Adrien replied with a shrug. "Won't be a problem this evening, as on Friday's and Tuesday's Elliott is off from the kindergarten,"
Adrien glanced back on the road, then unlocked their SUV and climbed into the vehicle.
"I'll replacing it somewhere, there's officer Roger checking the roads," Adrien mentioned closing the door behind him and Kagami stepped aside to see her husband leave with their car and Kagami stood under a light pole to see if her son would finally come.
Moments later Kagami noticed a man enter into the front yard of the kindergarten and stopped there watching the children slowly move out of the classroom to the hall of the school. Another man and a woman appeared on the sidewalk next to the building and stepped up on the garden to wait for the children. A few children ran out of the house, one of the boys ran at the last man to give him a hug and Kagami crossed the road to enter into the garden and saw her son coming out of the building making Kagami smile, which looked around to see Adrien walk down the sidewalk to meet her.
"I've parked on a visitor parking spot from another house. We will be quick" Adrien told, then looked along with Kagami into the garden to see their son look up at the man in the wine read shirt talk to the blonde.
"Who's that guy?" Kagami asked making Adrien shrug his shoulders.
"Maybe someone's dad?" Adrien replied making Kagami shrug her shoulders and watch the man point up at another exit of the front yard and Elliot walked that path and the man observed the other two adults occupied with their children and moved behind Elliot fast.
"Wait, where's he going?" Kagami asked noticing Elliot going the wrong direction.
"Elliot!" Adrien shouted. "Where are you going?" Adrien asked loud seeing Elliot look at his parents getting bewildered and the man packed the boy covering his mouth and ran off.
"He's taking our son!" Kagami exclaimed watching Adrien race behind the man and the other man took his smartphone to inform the police and the third woman ran with her son into the building. Kagami went on off the garden to check if there was any pedestrian and opened her blazer to have her kwami Longg looking up at her.
"I've seen" Longg mentioned. "Quick, every second count"
"Long, break the storm!" The woman shouted out the activation phrase to transform into the superheroine Ryuko. Afterward, she ran across the garden to pursue her husband and at the other side of the road she saw the man was a few meters away from from the blonde, then arrived at a White van, then pushed the kid into the mail delivery van and got to start the vehicles motor turning the reverse lights on and drove fast towards Adrien which jumped aside to avoid landing under the wheels.
Ryuko jumped in front of the man holding out her sword watching the car drive towards them, but it made a U-turn and drove off fast leaving Ryuko angrily back.
"Take the car, I'll be watching over them" Ryuko ordered while helping Adrien up, which ran towards the end of the roadside where he left the SUV and the dragon-themed superheroine observed the vehicle disappear in the far and called upon one of her elemental powers. "Wind Dragon!" She shouted turning into a light-dark fume flying over the road to get closer to the vehicle afterward she went down under the vehicle pulling it up in the air to prevent the vehicle to drive only leaving its wheels spinning around fast due to the lost of contact to the hard ground.
Adrien appeared on his SUV stopping behind the car, then he got out of it and Ryuko in the form of the wind approached the ground and Adrien grabbed on the door handle to open the door and his son Elliot felt down on his arms,
Afterward, Ryuko dropped the vehicle on the ground letting it speed up quickly making it lose its control and crash on a fence near the front yard. Elliot hugged his father hard which patted the boy's back for comfort.
"Elliot, haven't I and mother told you about not talking to strangers?" Adrien asked earning a disappointed facial expression of the boy as he nodded.
"He said he was friends with my dad and you said he would bring me home and he would give us all food, " Elliot told making Adrien shake his head. "I'm so sorry, dad"
"Oh Elliot, please next time run back into the classroom. I wouldn't ask any of my friends to bring you home, mostly if you don't know them, "
"But I found it strange as I saw you there waiting for me" Elliot mentioned. "I'm sorry dad. I didn't want this all to happen"
Ryuko transformed back from Wind into Ryuko again and went down at the two to make sure they're okay.
"Are you two alright?" Ryuko asked earning a nod from the blonde.
"Yes" Adrien answered, then noticed the man escaping, then Adrien got up and pursued the man leaving Elliot back with Ryuko. "Hey, you!"
Ryuko placed her hand on Elliot's face to gaze into his maroon eyes which were a little shiny due to being sad about what had happened.
"Everything is okay, my dear" Ryuko stated patting him with her hand earning a nod from the blonde.
"Mommy won't be mad at me too won't she?"
"Of course not" Ryuko answered pulling the boy up in his arms. "She will be happy to know you're okay. Then only thing she could do is warn you about what happened"
"Why did that man want to take me?" Elliot asked making the heroine shrug her shoulders.
"I don't know it, dear. However, you know certain persons don't always look what they seem to be, so you're better be careful with strangers"
"Thank you" Elliot said, then Adrien appeared exhausted from the run, then held the boy on his shoulders.
"Roger caught him. He'll be sending him for interrogation" Adrien said, then glanced down at his son, which nodded.
"So I can go back without any problems?" Ryuko asked with a wink at her husband which nodded.
"Thanks for the help" Adrien thanked then Ryuko patted the boy on his head.
" See you soon," Ryuko told the boy while she kissed him on his forehead making him turn red on his cheeks at the sense of her lips on him. Ryuko ran away leaving Adrien back which smiled at seeing his wife in the super-suit head away, then Adrien patted his son on the back and accompanied him back to the car, where they encountered a tired Kagami, which came running from the other side of the kindergarten.
"I'm so sorry mom!" Elliot ran towards his mother's legs, making her smile and embrace him while Adrien stood behind the boy and looked at his wife, which gave him an assuring smile and observed him getting back into the car to the driver seat.
"You had bad luck today. Next time you'll know it better" Kagami promised helping the boy enter into the family SUV and got into the front seat to be next to her husband. "Nothing more happened to you, right?"
"No, he just took me into his car" Elliot answered sad.
"That is a relief," Kagami answered looking at Adrien, which smiled and patted his wife on her thigh, seeing her mirror his facial expression back, therefore he placed his hand back on the lever pulling it to D, so they could drive off the parking spot.
