[Chapter 7]

The first half of the class went uneventful, until a piece of paper flew into Marinette's hair and fell to the floor. Looking around, she took it before unfolding the crumbled piece of paper.

Written on it were names and arrows: "Marinette - Adrien, Alix - Kim, Rose - Jukeka, Alya - Nino". It was a list of everyone that switched bodies. She turned around to look at the unusually happy goth and and gloomy pink-lover blond. "So Juleka and Rose switched as well? I always knew they would make a cute couple."

A loud bang made her turn her head back to the front, repressing a skriek.

The teacher, Miss Mendelev, was wearing her never changing serious scowl as she asked the teen:

"Mr. Agrest, maybe if you have time to turn around to look at your classmates, you would have the answer to the question?"

Panic took over Marinette as she quickly looked at the board. The complicated formulas were a headache in themselve and she had no idea what the solution was. Until she spotted Adrien's notebook with the answer on it that he was showing her; one of the advantages that he sat in front of her.

She blurted out "The answer is 42 volts"

The teacher gave a satisfied hum and return to the board.

Wiping her forehead, Mari gave a silent "thank you" to her friend who just smiled and winked in return.

Ushered whispers to the back of class were heard from Kim, but nothing unusual, since he was always a mouthful. Marinette started to relax and listen to the teacher until a loud gasp could be heard from the back of the class.

"Nataniel! We're still in the middle of class! If you found inspiration for your drawings keep it to yourself." Ms. Mendelev turned back to the board mumbling to herself.

The whispers at the back to the class went on a little louder and Marinette could swear she could feel people's stare burning the back of her head.

The purple haired teacher turned around angrily to cut the chatter off but before she could say anything a pink heart-shaped bubble appeared from thin air.

The Wingman voice echoed from it.

"Hello my lovelies! I know some of you are not very happy with the changes I made. After all, it was meant to be both a gift and a curse. Well I have a good new for all of you oblivious lovers! If a couple catches Ladybug and Chat Noir, I will give them the privilege to switch back to their respective body! And I know how to make things even more interesting!"

A red string appeared on Marinette's pinky, connected to Adrien's. Soon she realized that it did the same to everyone else who had their body switched. A pair of huge scissors appeared in the hands of the ones bearing unrequired love or had to deal with oblivious "couple".

"Every third wheels and ones whose feelings aren't reciprocated, you can now take revenge! If you cut the red string of a couple, the one you love will be connected to you, and the rival will be turned into… Actually I'll keep that as a surprise! Game start! Ladybug, Chat Noir, your time has come!"

The bubble popped and disappeared, leaving a stunned, quiet class.

The silence didn't last long as Chloé jumped on the table with a evil grin on her face, looking directly at Marinette and Adrien's string. Just like a charm that's been broken, the class (and whole school) broke into havoc, everyone running off to either find the heroes or to try to cut red strings.

Given their secret alter ego reflexes, they managed to escape Chloé unharmed outside of the school… Where crazy fangirls awaited them.

"This way!" Adrien pulled Marinette's arm toward a nearby alley, scissors clicking in their backs accompanied by angry screams and yells. They turned a corner before Mari pushed Adrien through a door, closing and locking it behind them; sighing in relief.

They were in the backstore of Marinette's parent's bakery.

"We'll leave from my room" said the bluenette, pointing to the roof. The run to the roof was cut short when they heard Mr. Cheng yelling "Do not touch my wife!"

Chloé snobby voice echoed incoherent words, the heroes not close enough to hear what she said, but they heard well and clear the angry father snarling back to whatever she said. "Marinette is not home, what do you want from her? I will not let you hurt my family! Drop those scissors or I call the cops!"

Exchanging a wary glance, the teens ran down the stairs to the front of the bakery, where they found Marinette's parents beeing held captive by some fangirls.

Chloé was to the front of the crowd, a satisfied smirk on her lips.

"Poor Marinette, your parents are held hostages because of you, you should be ashamed of yourself! Don't move a step closer, or we will find another use than cuting strings to these scissors."

The teen balled her fist and snarled angrily at the blonde. "What do you want Chloé!"

"What I want? I want Adrien of course!"

Adrien put a hand on Marinette's shoulder to refrain her from hitting the rich brat.

"Now, if you let me cut the string, I will release your poor like you can win against me anyways." Chloé added, checking her manicure.

Shaking from anger, holding back for the sake of her parents safety, Marinette finally got an idea.

"Well, this whole situation sure seems fair. But tell me, why would you be the one to get Adrien? These girls helps you to get him when they love Adrien as well. Now that I think of it, don't you think they are using you? So that once you cut our string, they will cut your string."

Whispers between the fangirls grew louder, wondering whether or not go against Chloé. The brat turned around and tried to buy them with cheap excuses and gifts. The girls were now arguing loudly, not paying attention to the bakers and teenagers. Adrien and Marinette took this opportunity to sneak upstairs while the married couple sneaked outside the bakery to call the cops.

"We have to transform and save my parents, I don't think this will keep them occupied for long." As on cue, Chloé's angry shouts echoed through the walls of the bedroom.


Ok. I am so very sorry I never uploaded this or updated or anything... I had a very very very busy life and lost my writing muse... It's almost been a year since this story is up and I feel so bad everytime I receive a email saying that I gained a new favourite or follower... But here I am. I worked a little on it yesterday.. It might not be as good but I'm trying to get back to it. I had a boost of confidence this week, because I reviewed a story I really liked and the writer replied, and well, knew my story. I was so embarassed, I never thought that someone I was reading from would actually know me. So please do review, it's giving me the strengh to keep up and put up a goofy smile on my face. So thank you, to the followers that never gave up, thanks to the one that are reading this for the first time and got this far, it means a lot to me.

So I'm going to stop here, have a nice day/night wherever you are, mew are paw-some!
