Miraculous Salt

Being Punished For Your Crimes

draph91: couldn't find the ask option but can you do a salt oneshot where during the events of Miracle Queen where Ladybug loses her patience with Chloe and calls her out on what she did, that is if you've seen the episode

Answer

It took a while to get Chat Noir to agree but eventually, he did after understanding that Chloe needed to experience the consequences fo her actions for god's sake she willingly worked with Hawkmoth because I didn't give her a miraculous even after I explain that it would put her family in danger for her to still have the bee one.

Both me and Chat Noir had gone to the police station with evidence of each event (luckily someone had seen the defeat of miracle queen and recorded Chloe's tantrum, that did not look good). Surprisingly, Officer Raincomprix was willing to be in charge of her case even though the last time he went against the Major he was fired, according to him if the major tried anything like that again, he can get him for abuse of power.

Chloe was brought in along with her father and mother. Chloe was ranting how utterly ridiculous this was and that she hadn't done anything wrong but shut up pretty quickly when evidence that Ladybug and Chat Noir had brought. Her father tried to say that if she was charged the officers will be fired but was quickly shut up by his wife who agreed with the police that she needed a punishment since Chloe had willingly worked with a terrorist even if it was by manipulating her emotions (it had been proven before she could have refused to work with Hawkmoth since people have refused to be akumatisted before) so it was decided she would be doing a six months of community service and would be watched closely by police. The school had been warned about this punishment so Miss Bustier's class was given a teaching assistant called Mr Glass to help make sure nothing slipped past Miss Bustier.

Chloe had been complaining to Adrien who after listening to the complaints about the entire morning, blew up during lunch.
"Chloe you willingly worked with Hawkmoth" he had shouted,
"He manipulated me and anyway Ladybug should have given me the miraculous insted of that stupid dragon" retorted Chloe. Of course like any good boyfriend, hearing someone insult the person he was dating made him madder.

"No, she shouldn't, you would have been putting your family at risk since your identity is known to the whole of Paris and not only that but you have used the miraculous with selfish intent, you showed it off on live tv after not returning it to Ladybug when you noticed she had dropped and willingly caused a train to almost crash in order to make yourself look good, oh and let's not forget the number of akumas you have caused" he shouted, "at this point, I wonder why you weren't put on police watch sooner" and with that, he left slamming the cafeteria doors behind with Marinette chasing after him to make sure he wouldn't be akumatised.

By the evening, the whole of Paris knew of Chloe's punishment since Alya had decided it would be her next headline. Alya had asked other students if they knew any and of course, with how loud Chloe's complaints had been, they knew and Alya had used that as proof. The police had put out a statement along with the evidence in order to clear up any rumours, Paris had become rightfully angry at Chloe, so many people were checking out of her father's hotel as quickly as possible including Jagged Stone who had said 'I do not want to be around someone who would willingly work with Hawkmoth even if they are a child since I don't know if he will come to the hotel or not'. Her father had to put out a statement to show that he agreed with Chloe's punishment and that he along with his wife was punishing her as well.

In the end, Chloe name not only became permanently associated with Hawkmoth for months after the news broke, but she also had to donate her pocket money to the charities that she worked with for community service and Mr Glass never let her get away with making Sabrina doing her work (Sabrina made sure to stay well as away from Chloe at her father's request, hanging out with the other classmates) so she was stuck doing catch up for it and most students avoid her like the plague until she changed her attitude.
