As you've probably guessed from the title, the story of The Flying Ladybug is pausing for a moment!
I.O.N.
Hope you enjoy!

"... or her name for that matter." Marinette spoke with the gravity of a trained storyteller. Just as she was about to continue Max, who had left to stretch his legs, rushed into the room looking alarmed.
"Max?"
"Ship sighted!"
At once the room rushed into action. Marinette grabbed the three girls and began herding them off to their room, Mylene, and Juleka headed up to the wheel. Rose was heading for the crows nest. Nathaniel, Kim, and Alex began readying the swords. Ivan, Chloe, Nino, and Alya started readying the cannons. Adrien watched everything moving with absolutely no idea what to do. Max and Sabrina were headed for the powder room when Marinette ran back and grabbed Max's arm effectively stopping him.
"Did you recognize the ship?"
"No, it was too far away to get a good look at it. But I think we should still be prepared for the worst."
Marinette nodded, and turned back towards the door to head back out when she saw Adrien looking like a lost puppy in a busy street. "Adrien," she said as she half walked half ran over to him, "I'm going to go make sure that everything is locked in my workshop, could you keep an eye on the girls, please?" Adrien nodded and smiled, happy that he had something to do. "Oh! And you might want to take your father with you too. I don't want him to get hurt if worst comes to worst."
With a second nod, the newest pirate in training gently grabbed Gabriel's hand and headed in the direction that he'd seen the sweet seamstress originally go.
Marinette watched long enough to make sure that they were going to the right place, before heading off to prepare herself. After all, it would be rude if the captain of the ship wasn't there to greet her guests.
