Miraculous Ladybug Imagines

Evillustrator is back...

*credit to @panthernoir for the idea! :)

"Oh, Tikki," Marinette smiled to her friend. She set her bag down and lay on her bed. "Tomorrow is going to be perfect."

"I bet! Although I feel sorta bad for Nathaniel... he really wanted to be your partner," Tikki sighed, but then regained her excitement. "Instead, Adrien is!" she chimed.

"I know!" Marinette squealed excitedly. She gasped when a noise came from her window. Tikki quickly hid.

Marinette froze in shock as she watched the akumatized Nathaniel, aka Evillustrator, climb in through her window.

"W-What's going on?" Marinette asked shakily. How could Hawkmoth send an akuma to corrupt Nathaniel again?

The Evillustrator stood squarely in front of Marinette, his features set in determination. "Marinette," he said. "Come with me."

"What?" Marinette exclaimed in shock. "No, you need to stop this." She reached for his pen but he jerked away suddenly.

"Not falling for that again," he hissed, pacing back and forth in front of her. "I really don't know why I'm being so nice to you. Last time we had an encounter, you betrayed me for that stupid Chat Noir."

"Nathaniel-"

"I'm not Nathaniel!" he barked, his face red with anger. He quickly composed himself. "Since I'm such a forgiving person, your beauty and charm has relieved you for your actions. Now run away with me, Marinette. I love you."

Those words hit her like a brick to the face. She couldn't run away with him. He was being controlled by Hawkmoth, plus she couldn't leave her life behind. As Ladybug, she has a city to protect.

"No," Marinette said firmly, crossing her arms. The Evillustrator looked taken aback.

"What?" he asked, his tone rising his volume. "Why?"

"Because-"

"Because you love him?" he snapped, pointing to the pictures of Adrien on her wall. Marinette sucked in a big breath.

"No way, Marinette," the Evillustrator hissed, looking at her with eyes full of poison. "I'm not losing you again."

Marinette shrieked as the Evillustrator drew rope and then tied it around her. Her bag was left behind and she helplessly watched Tikki's frightened face. Marinette was hauled out of the window, leaving Tikki behind.

The Evillustrator drew on a jet pack and then soared off, carrying the bounded Marinette along. She shrieked helplessly, hoping Chat Noir would hear her cries for help.

Tikki freaked out. She hadn't freaked out in years. Marinette was gone. She needed to find Plagg.

Tikki quickly flew out of the house in a frantic manner. "Let's see... Since the Miraculous holder is most likely a student at Marinette's school, that's where Plagg would be!"

She soared over to the school and flew straight through the door. "One thing I know about Plagg is that he loves cheese!" she exclaimed.

Tikki flew to the cafeteria and took some cheese. She lay the blocks out near a tiny corner and waited. She hoped he would smell it.
