Hey butterflies! This is a Daminette story and I hope you enjoy it!
It all started 5 years ago. Marinette Dupain-Cheng, A strong, brave, beautiful, confident, shy, clumsy, cute, stubborn, happy, and a go lucky girl, and their 'everyday ladybug' have...
It was the next morning and it was a gloomy day for everyone. It was raining today and all had school. It was memorable for Marinette and Marinette's Friends. For Marinette, It had a lot of memories. Her childhood love for Adrien that she can't feel now. Syren, It was raining when the event of all dead bodies just floated away. And Animan, Her love died and couldn't be fixed in the rain. Now she awoke at 6:30 and went down from her bed. She went to the window first and sat down to enjoy the calmness and rainy day. She just sat there thinking 'Why do I deserve this?' I mean it is true. She used to be so helpful, full of positivity, and happy but now she just feels nothing but sadness and nothing more. She continued to stare at the street below her with pouring rain looking sad.

(Sorry if its a bit rushed 😅)
A few moments later she got up and took a shower. After, she went out wearing a skirt, a long dark navy blue sweater, some white vans, and knee-high socks. She wore the skirt since Adrien said to her once 'You look good in skirts' and a long sweater to cover up the bruises Lila's group made. She then got her bag, Adrien's umbrella, and went down. When she arrived down, she just ate and said bye to her parents and left walking in the rain with her Agreste umbrella. Once she arrived in school, she went inside directly to avoid getting was but Chloe, Kagami, and the others of MPS were nowhere to be seen. She was then pulled into a closed classroom with no one but Alya, Lila, Ivan, Sabrina, and Max. Before Marinette could say anything, they all attack her. They then left bruises, cuts, injuries, and broken bones. She didn't defend herself and just let them. She was going to heal later anyways. After their beating with her that took about 12-15 minutes, they went out of the classroom and went to class as nothing happened. Marinette stayed in the empty classroom for a bit then received a message from her friends in the group chat.
Queenie: Hey Maribug, I am so so so sorry for leaving you in school alone, I had to fill in in daddy's hotel since he's sick from the weather. The cold weather started early, BELIEVE THAT!? though I love the weather It ruins me and Pollen's utterly perfect skin! Again, Hope you're fine Maribug, Luv your queen
Dragon: Hello Marihime and others, I am sorry to say I won't and can't go to school for today since I fell sick............Because of the cold weather. I will resume school tomorrow. Hope you're fine Marihime.
And soon, The other MPS squad was ill. Most of them fall ill easily even if it's just a cold gust of wind. Marinette however is the guardian so she is tougher and stronger from the others. She then just left her wounds not caring about them and went to class. And again, When she went to class she was called out for bullying, harassment, and more other assaults from her former 'friends'. She just walked at the back and was of course bullied for slapping Lila earlier this morning. I mean they were the ones that pulled her in the classroom and were beaten up, yet they say she was the one who apparently 'Bruised' Lila. Soon Ms. Bustier came in and just started her lesson. Soon it was lunch break and Marinette just went out not minding if she tripped or anything. She got some run-ins but made it to the bakery. She ate her lunch and just went back to school. By now she still has 30 minutes till her classes start and because the MPS is not here, she has no one to hang out with. She went back to the classroom she was bullied in this morning and just drew there near the window. She started tearing up a bit but of course haven't noticed. She just continued drawing while feeling her wounds healing a bit. And again Lila came in and she had no idea how she knew Marinette was there but she went next to Marinette. "Hello Marinette, I see your suffering way more *Chuckle*Just ow I like it. Now I need you to leave Paris or else ill put down you and your friend's businesses. Oh how much they would hate you for them losing business. I'll give a week for you to leave and if not then feel the wrath of your parents suffering along with your friends". After Lila said that, Marinette felt a spark. A spark of fear. "You wouldn't," She said while looking in Lila's way. "Oh, Wanna bet? See you later Marinette, expect something worst later on" Lila said before standing up and walking towards the door. "You better think twice about it," She said before leaving the room completely and leaving Marinette thinking. She thought for a while before she came across something bad happening to her parents and friends. She couldn't believe she felt emotions for a while and she couldn't think what would happen if her parents and friends dream crushed. She started to cry a bit and her sketchbook slowly was filled with some tears. Kaalki and Tikki came out and tried comforting her. She always brings kaalki since she sometimes needed to be in places in a rush. She has Tikki since she's always ladybug. Tikki asked Kaalki to make a portal in a nearby alley near her house. He did as he was and opened it and let Marinette escape from school. Marinette stepped in and just ran inside not minding her parents and the other costumers. She ran upstairs and just cried in her bed. Tikki locked the door and let out some of the kwami's to comfort the sad 21-year-old. She of course took off her shoes and hair tie and just cuddled with the comforter and the kwami's. She stayed like that for a while and eventually took a nap. Her parents didn't know what happened so they called the school and told them she's been absent for the afternoon. Her parents then also received a bunch of bad reviews in their online bakery and some ratings slowly lowered. They tried to check up on Marinette but decided to leave her some space until later in the evening. Marinette took a nap for a while and when she woke up it was about 4 in the afternoon and she took a bath and then changed into some comfy clothes to wear and started to do one of her commissions from Uncle Jagged. She made a suit and a dress for him and penny for one of his concerts this coming Friday. She finished his suit and Penny's dress prototypes so she just needs to sew them all in place. She went down to eat a bit and surprisingly sadly went back to her unemotional state. She ate with her parents until she decided to tell them she's leaving. She made up her mind and she doesn't want to burden her friends and family. After they ate, Her mother was washing dishes and her father was cleaning the table while she sat there and thought. "Maman, papa I'll be leaving in the next two days," she said. Her parents looked shocked about the news they received from her and started to ask her questions about where she was going. "Sweetie I'm grateful you want to get away from here but where will you go? Where will we live? How do we open our bakery there-" Sabine got cut off by Marinette saying "I will be going alone". Her parents gasped at the thought of their daughter deciding such a thing. "Darling we can't do such a thing. We don't want to leave you alone" Her dad, Tom said while stopping from wiping and looking at her daughter. "Well whether you like it or not I'll be leaving" She aid and stood up to go to her room. "Oh, and goodnight," She said before fully entering her room and finishing the commissions. She worked for a while and slept at 3 am. The next morning was to be a surprise for what happens to her and her family. And who knows what will happen with her parent's bakery, Chloe's dad's hotel, Kagami's family reputation, Luka's band, Nathaniel's drawing website, and Max's techno dream. Kim didn't have anything to lose except for being kicked out of swimming practice for no reason. She didn't want most of them to feel sad and stuck because of her.
