Adrien wasn't rich.

He didn't want his father's money.

He wanted to earn money himself, not just take his father's. He wanted people to not think of him as Gabriel Agreste's son, or just some rich model.

So he tried to get money himself by getting a job.

"Nino I'm telling you the world is trying to make me not have a job," wailed Adrien, flopping down on his bed.

Nino rolled his eyes, "Bro chill, your being over dramatic."

"Easy for you to say you've got like what 2 jobs," he moaned into the pillow.

"Yeah but dude my main job is being a DJ. And the other job is only for summer break. And you know your not aloud to mention the 'Akuma' job!" Nino whisper yelled.

"Oh yeah I forgot your doing something illegal at Akuma," Adrien sat up.

"It's not illegal. It's just..."

Adrien interrupted him, "Just doing experiments in a huge building's basement, that nobody knows of. That includes the mayor, the police and everyone in Paris. Your right it's not illegal at all." Adrien said in his best sarcastic voice.

"Seriously dude at least I got 2 jobs, how many jobs do you have again? Oh that's right 0," Nino smirked.

"Don't you sass me."

Nino laughed, "Anyway I got to go to you know where," Nino winked.

"Actually you never said where it was," Adrien pointed out.

"Well duh you know I can't, I would get fired for sure!"

Adrien smirked "Yea I know I was just kitten."

Nino groaned, "Ugh you and terrible puns. You really need a new sense of humor. Anyway later!" Nino shouts while walking out the door.

"I think they're a-meow-zing!" He shouted back.

He heard a faint groan from Nino in the hall.

After Nino left Adrien's dorm, he went to his house to get his lab coat then went straight to the huge building he was talking about with Adrien.

When he arrived to the building he walk up to the door and click the buzzer on the wall. The person who answered was one of his co-workers Kim.

"Password?" he said.

"Dude it's me. Nino,"

"Sorry not the password,"

"Ugh. It's 'Kwami' Kim," he answered.

"Right," Kim opened the door, "Nino what's up my man?"

"Seriously?" Nino said unimpressed.

"What?" but before Nino could answer he carried on, "Anyway your right on time, Hawk Moth is having a meeting in 2 minutes."

Nino whispered, "Thanks for telling me bro. Hawk moth would have had my head if I wasn't their."

"Yeah, tell me about it. He is one strict man." Kim agreed.

"Yeah but bro don't you wonder why he is doing these experiments, I mean yeah we could get them to work but when this is done he can't sell these. It's illegal." Nino asked confused.

"Who cares we're getting money out of this. To me it doesn't even matter as long as we get paid. Am I right?" Kim grinned.

"Yeah dude, your totally right." Nino smiled. "We should head before he gets angry and I would rather not get in his bad side."

"Yeah let's go."

They walked to the basement door and made sure nobody was around to see them. Once they were sure the coast was clear they opened the door and walk in.

They went down the stairs to the bottom floor of the building. After the stairs there was another buzzer. Kim click it.

"Password?"

Nino groaned, "It's 'Miraculous' Nooroo."

"You may enter," Nooroo replied.

Kim and Nino went in.

The room was hugged. It had lots of their experiments in it which made it a bit less space but some were in other rooms. The walls, roof and floor were all painted white, it was chipped and rotting. In the middle of the room was a big table with other co-workers and the boss HawkMoth.

HawkMoth was not easy to impress.

Nino, Kim and Nooroo went to their seats. Nooroo sat beside the boss because he was second in command and Nino and Kim just went to find a seat that wasn't taken. Kim sat beside Alex and winked at her which she just snapped the pencil in her hands and Max his best friend where as Nino sat beside Alya who he secretly had a crush on and Nathaniel.

"How are our experiments coming along" He said to Alya.

"They are all coming along great and most of them are working perfectly," she smiled proudly.

"Excellent," He grinned evilly.

"But 2 of them exploded while testing them." She said with worry.

"And I hope you have rebuilt them back up and are working ten times better now. I can not have any errors in our research. This is our lives work for some of us and I need them all to work is that clear." He said frustrated.

They all nodded.

"Good and where are we on our main project?" He said to Max with his ice cold eyes.

Max stood up and straightened his glasses, "Well according to my calculations the project will be ready in 2 days."

"Good and does it work?"

"We have not dared to try it on a human."

"And why not?" HawkMoth said with a bit of a tone in his voice but still calm.

"We do not know what the side affects would be an-"

"But we made this for humans to have the abilities of any animal. It is made for humans. What would be the point of this if we don't have a human to test this out on?"

"Yes but-"

Max got interrupted again, "No buts!" He raised his voice. "Find someone to experiment this project on or else." Max nodded. "They may not want to be apart of the experiment but they may change their mind if you pay them to do it. Just get it done. Find someone by tomorrow night." Everyone nodded.

"Meeting over. Now get back to work, I am expecting you all to give me your new results on each and every project we have on my desk by tomorrow morning. Everyone clear?" He called out.

"Yes HawkMoth," They answered.

He left them after that and went back to his office. Slamming his door as if to say do not disturb me.

Everyone else still sat their worried, looking at one another.

"Does anyone know who would willingly be the test for this experiment. I'm certain that none of us want to do it," Alix said to everyone.

"No." "Nope." "In your dreams!" Everyone said.

"So does anyone know someone to do this experiment?" Alix said again.

Everyone shook their heads no, looking nervous. Nino was in deep thought, thinking carefully. Then he finally said, "I think I might know someone, but what will happen to him if he does do it, will anything bad happen to him?"

"According to our results we had this morning, it might give them the abilities of any animal or nothing will happen at all," Max said looking at his clipboard. "but there is a small chance that something bad might happen, but we don't know what."

"What is the percentage of this 'chance'?" Nino said uncertainly.

"5% chance," he replied.

"OK but I have to ask him if he wants to because 5% is still a big chance even if you don't think so."

Everyone cheered for Nino but Nino was still a bit worried.

That night Nino went back to Adrien's dorm. As to be expected Adrien was their.

He knocked.

It took Adrien a while to answered the door, "Hey. Nino." Adrien yawns. "Why are you here at..." He looks at his alarm clock, "At 1 in the morning?" moaned Adrien with bed hair.

Nino went straight to the point, pointing at him, "Adrien I think I found you a job."
