For the Love of a Chat
Ao3
Chapter 11 - Chat Blanc
It took a few seconds before Chat could leave her presence. Something was eating at him to stay, but he knew he needed to leave in order for him to come back sooner rather than later. He squeezed her hand one more time, a sad smile lingered on his lips before turning to the staircase and head to the balcony.
But before Chat Noir could escape through the hatch, a dusting of sparkling sand dusted onto the superhero. His eyes widened; he knew exactly who the akuma was.
“Sandboy.” Chat whispered before turning around. His mind raced in thought as his body proactively turned to leap off the loft to protect Marinette before the akuma could coat her too. But he was too late. Marinette lifted her arms to eye the glittery dust that coated her body, her eyes just as wide when she realized what was going on.
“No.” She said in a terrified whisper; tears were already forming in the corner of her eyes.
“Marinette?” Chat scaled back down the ladder and grabbed onto her arms to steady her nerves. “Marinette. It’s going to be okay. Ladybug and I will take care of it.”
Marinette looked up with fear in her eyes. “No. No.” She loudly gasped, fear now emanate in her eyes. Her body was trembling, her hand covering a sob that tried to escape her lips, and she stepped back away from him until her back touched the wall.
“Marinette?” Worry now laced his tone as he watched her reaction. He noticed that her blank stare was not towards him, but to something behind him. He slowly turned around, afraid to see what caused her skin to pale.
Blue eyes. White Hair. White Suit.
“Marinette!” The creature called out. “Why don’t you love me anymore? We could be so happy together.”
Chat swallowed and blinked rapidly as he watched a crazed version of himself cry out with an eerie echo.
“Marinette? Why do we have to be apart? Why can’t we be together?”
Marinette slid to the ground as the tears fell down her face.
“Chat Noir?” Chat called out to the creature in white. Blue eyes took his eyes off his love, but glared daggers into the ones of green.
“I am not Chat Noir. I am Chat Blanc. It’s all your fault that we cannot be together. You ruined this for us!”
“What do you mean I ruined this for you? Marinette? What’s going on?” Fear now cracked his voice afraid of what his answer was to be. “Why are you afraid of-”
“Kitty!” A fierce, yet raspy voice interrupted him as it echoed from a shadowed corner of the room. “Kitty? I hate you. I hate your stupid bell. I hate your pretty face. I only let you in this room because I feel sorry for you.”
“Ma- Marinette?” Chat Noir looked back over to see that Marinette was still on the floor stalled in fear as she watched Chat Blanc walking slowly towards her as if he did not want to spook her further. He turned to the shadows to see another version of Marinette – one with black clothes and an angry look on her face – spitting venomous words towards him.
“You’re right kitty. It is Marinette. But I don’t like you. I never liked you. You’re nothing to me. I just pity you. Pity your poor excuse of a sob story to care about you.”
“No.” Chat Noir said, voiceless. He shook his head to clear his wandering thoughts. He knew that this was all an illusion; it was just his fears turning to reality.
He turned back to the real Marinette and saw that Chat Blanc was closer to her than he was now. He took his baton and extended it, knocking Chat Blanc of balance and throwing him against the wall. He then ran to Marinette, picked her up bridal style, and slipped through the hatch to get her away from the two evil versions of themselves. He stopped on her balcony and tried to focus her face on his.
“Marinette. Snap out of it.” Chat Noir stated, shaking her shoulders to get her back to reality. When Marinette finally looked into his eyes, she grabbed onto him struggling to find purchase against his skin tight suit.
“Oh god, Chat. Please. Please get me away from him.” She mumbled into his chest. Her words sounding like a whispered plea. “Please.”
Chat nodded and hopped over to the next roof and then onto the next, until he was running quickly through the arrondissement to find a place where he could safely put her down. When he finally got to a safe area, he grabbed onto her broken form, caressing her cheek with his clawed hand. “Marinette. Look at me.”
Marinette, still tremulous over what she had seen, finally looked into green eyes.
“Chat? Chat Noir?” She let out a wet sigh and wrapped her arms around him. She whispered, afraid that if she spoke louder, her words would cause the change in scenery to the one of the darkness in her room with the white cat taunting her with fear.
“It’s me. It’s me, Marinette. I’m right here.” He cooed as he rubbed circles on her back. “Shhh. What happened? Why is there a Chat Blanc in your room?”
“I can’t. I can’t talk about it. Please.” Fresh tears started to spill from her eyes. “Please. Just go defeat the akuma. Please.”
Chat didn’t want to leave her, but he needed to defeat this so he could come back. He needed to come back. She needed him and he wasn’t going to leave her alone to suffer any longer than she should.
“I’ll be right back. Please stay here. I’ll find you as soon as I’m done and I promise I’ll finish this.” He wrapped her in his arms and held her tightly. “I’ll protect you. I promise.”
Marinette nodded as she clung to him tightly. Slowly, she released him from her grasp, him doing the same, and watched his diminishing form as he bounced from rooftop to rooftop towards the akuma.
“Tikki,” She called out quietly to the kwami as she cleaned her tear-streaked cheeks with the back of her hand, “we need- we need to hu- hurry.”
“Marinette,” she stated calmly, trying to bring her attention to something other than her fear. “Did you notice who Chat was afraid of?”
Marinette nodded. “I saw me, a glimpse of me, in the corner. I- I looked so evil. It was just like the evil Ladybug from the last time Sandboy came around. But it was so different. The words... it was worse than I ever said before.”
Tikki looked at her chosen with sad eyes. “Are you okay, Marinette?”
She sniffed and nodded. “I have to be. Chat needs me.” She stood up and took in a heavy breath to get rid of the anxiousness. “Okay, Tikki. Spots on.”

OT4 Brick Wall aesthetic
Whenever Britney is free I hope we get to hear her sing or rerecord Stronger because it will hit so different. Miss Britney Jean Spears is a queen and should be treated as such.
Listening to Britney Spears’ Lucky as an adult and finally gets it ✨ 😢 ✨
But she cry, cry, cries in her lonely heart, thinking
If there’s nothing missing in my life
Then why do these tears come at night?
😭
