I am the next Ladybug?!

Chapter 16- Your (as Ladybug) POV

"So... explain. Why are you here?" Chat Noir asked, half growling and pointing at him.

Viperion smiled calmly.

 "I will, I will. But you might want to," He pointed at his ring and my earring, "go right now."

Chat Noir he breathed out in anger. I walked up to Chat Noir.

"Hey. He is right," I turned to Viperion, "We will recharge and meet you... at the rooftop of Bourgeois Hotel?"

He nodded at me. Chat Noir huffed and jumped off. I sighed and smiled at Viperion.

"He will come," I said, " I will come in a bit."

"Fine. I will wait. I have something important to tell to both of you."

I nodded and swung back to my home. Landing in my balcony, I detransformed.

"Whew. That was a long one, wasn't it," Tikki said, as she flew to the cookie jar.

"And a draining one," I added, stretching my arms. Crying always made me tired and my eyes puffy and red. Wait a second. Were my eyes puffy and red right now? I rushed to the full size mirror in my room. God forbid if Viperion had seen me like that. He saw me for the first time today and I- I touched my face in front of the mirror. No swollen eyes? Was it because I reverted back everything after 'Miraculous Ladybug'-ging everything. Whew. But wait a second. It seemed Viperion could see in the dark.

"Hey- um Tikki?" I called out

"Yes?" she said, peering out of the jar.

"Can Viperion see in the dark?"

"Yes, he can," she confirmed, "What is the problem?"

"Nothing," I said. There goes my final hope. This is going to be so awkward. How will I explain to him why I was crying. He might already think that I am pathetic. Whatever. There is nothing I can do about it at this point. I sighed. I will have to get through this.

"Tikki, spots on."

"Huh-"

Oops. I should have asked her first. Sorry Tikki. I got up to my balcony and swung my way to the Bourgeois Hotel. Chat Noir was there already with Viperion. They were speaking about something. 

"Hey, I am here," I announced, getting there attention. It should be fine if Chat Noir would be here with us.

"Oh! You are just in time. These are for you," Viperion said, handing me the rabbit miraculous.

"What! But this is... a miraculous!" I said, startled.

"Yes, this is the rabbit miraculous. When you think things are beyond repair, give this miraculous to some you trust. This hold the power to time travel. It will help you in a clutch."

"But, but Ladybug said she does not trust me with the-"

"Don't worry about that. She is just adjusting to the changes. This miraculous should be used only in case of emergencies. I have given the bee, turtle and fox miraculous to Chat Noir. They can be used whenever you need some extra push. That way both of you are powerful enough to turn the table when conditions our unfavorable," Vipereon said to reassure me.

"Thanks," I said, taking the miraculous box from his hand.

"Don't worry, you will be fine," Chat Noir said, putting his hand on my shoulder, "I will get going now. I can't carry these three boxes in my hands like this."

I laughed seeing him balancing the three boxes.

"Okay, I will get going too," I said.

"No wait!" Chat Noir said quickly, "Why don't you two hang out a bit before you go? Get to know each other, we will be working together, right?"
