Zoo
Y/N's POV

Y/N: Itsy...why did you want to go to the zoo?

Itsy was currently in my shirt pocket as he sees all of the various animals we pass.

Itsy: I saw that there was a new exhibit!

Y/N: And where did you see that?

Itsy: There was an ad on a website you were on yesterday.

Y/N: And that's how you knew?

Itsy: Yep! But first, we gotta go see the arachnids!

Y/N: Fine, fine. I'm going.

I entered the cold building as I looked at each showcase glass. My eyes started to sparkle as I saw the many spiders and bugs.

Y/N: Itsy...you do know we can see spiders and arachnids every day, right?

Itsy: Well, yeah...but there are so many arachnids from around the globe.

Y/N: True...

After walking around the cold building, I exited the building and looked for a sign.

Itsy: Are we going to see the new exhibit now?

Y/N: Yep. And it looks like I'll be taking a right.

I turned right and saw a popcorn stand. I bought some popcorn as I started looking for the panther. As I was walking I saw Alya...hiding behind a tree? I tossed a singular popcorn at her, and hid from her sights.

Alya: Hey! Who did that?! I swear! When I find you I'll-!

Y/N: (chuckles)Woah there, Alya. It was just me. Anyway, why are you hiding behind a tree?

Alya: Oh! Um...you know, I...I'm starting a new blog about trees! And anything green!

I looked at her with a confused face. I then shook my head.

Y/N: You and I both know that you're lying.

Alya froze as I just let her go.

Y/N: Whatever you're doing, Alya, just watch your back, alright?

Alya: Yeah, I'll be safe. Wait! Are you going to see the panthers?

I nodded as I waved to Alya. She waved back as she ran off somewhere.

Itsy: What do you think she's actually doing, Y/N?

Y/N: I'm no mind reader, Itsy. But whatever it is...it must be something important.

Itsy: Hm, okay then. Y/N! We're here!

I looked up and saw a panther. My eyes widened as I saw how big it is.

"Whoa! Look at the size of that piece of meat it's eating!"

I looked at the source and saw Kim and Max. I walked up to them and decided to lend them my knowledge.

Y/N: They eat more than a single piece of meat. With a balanced diet, they can run at speeds in excess of 60 miles per hour.

I walked up to them as I smiled looking at the panther.

Kim: 60 miles per hour? Is that all? I thought panthers were much faster than that. I bet that I could beat it in a race.

The man who fed the panther looked at Kim if he were insane.

Zookeeper: Impossible. No human being could compete with my panther.

Y/N: Kim. Not even the fastest man alive, Usain Bolt, can beat a panther.

Kim: Shush, Y/N! I always come in first place. (to the zookeeper)What place did your cat come in at the County Athletics Tournament?

Zookeeper: You can't possibly compare yourself to my panther, kiddo!

Kim: No need to. I'm obviously the better looking one.

Then, the panther growled.

Kim: Hey, kitty, kitty. How about a little race with me, huh? Last one's a rotten egg!

Y/N: Kim. You wouldn't be--

Max: With a 6 feet-per-second win behind you and 45 degrees to the north-east... I don't think you'd be a rotten egg. You'd be lunch.

'Rude...'

Zookeeper: Your friend's right, kiddo. Now please leave. She needs peace and quiet while she eats. You're stressing her out.

Kim: Awww, stressed out, are we, Miss Panthie? You're talking about a wild animal, dude.

The panther roars as I push Kim away.

Y/N: Panthers are solitary animals, Kim. They like to be left alone!

I gave him a final push as he stumbled forward.

Kim: Y/N! Why don't--

Y/N: We race? I would love too, but you need to backtrack a little. You at least need to be humble. It's okay to be confident, but don't be overconfident.

Kim looks down as he let my words replay in his mind.

Y/N: But Kim. If you still wanna race, just give me a call. And it'll be a foot race. And no rollerblades.

Kim looked up at me and smiled as he nodded.

Kim: You better train your butt off if you want to beat me!

Y/N: (bows politely)I will. Goodbye, you two.

I waved to both Kim and Max as they returned the gesture. I kept walking until my eyes caught something. My heads dart to what I saw. My eyes widened at what I saw.

Itsy: Y/N?

Y/N: Itsy...be quiet for a moment...I see pandas...

Itsy: Pandas?

I only nod as I ran to the panda exhibit. I watched the pandas in their natural habitat.

Y/N: (mutters)They're so chubby...

I then heard an elephant's trumpet.

Y/N: An elephant? That close to where we are?

I then watched as the pandas suddenly get up and walked...out of their habitat?

Y/N: Another thing about pandas...not only are they cute, but that can be dangerous!

I ran away from the habitat before I got trampled by them, I ran into a bush and Itsy came out.

Y/N: There is something going on...another akuma victim?

Itsy: Maybe. Let's go, Y/N!

Y/N: Alright. Itsy! Web sling!

I watched as Itsy flew into my watch miraculous and transformed into Arachnid. I jumped out of the bush and jumped onto a habitat dome. I looked around the zoo to see if I could spot Ladybug or Chat Noir. Instead, I spotted...

Y/N: Alya and Nino? They probably know where they headed.

I jumped down the dome and made my way to them. I knocked on the glass to grab their attention.

Alya and Nino: Arachnid?!

Y/N: Hey. Do you know where the cat and the bug are?

Alya: We don't know, but if you see a pack of animals, they're probably there.

Y/N: Okay, thank you. And...how did you two get in here?

Nino: Alya and I were runnin' from a bunch of animals and all of a sudden, Ladybug grabs us and throws us in here.

Y/N: She must've done it for a good reason. Okay, thank you.

I then jumped away from the duo and landed on a lamppost.

'Now...where are you two..."
