You Want It Darker
I’ve had this idea in the back of my head for quite a long time now, but it wasn’t until I read some of @miraculouscontent‘s, @imthepunchlord‘s, and @zoe-oneesama‘s salt fic idea, LadyBugOut, that I decided I truly wanted to write this. It is loosely inspired by their idea and my own head cannons on ML lore so it will probably diverge from cannon. Please enjoy this small snipet.

"The line dividing good and evil cuts through the heart of every human being. And who is willing to destroy a piece of his own heart?" - Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn

Tiresome would be one of the words Marinette would use to describe her thoughts on the ever elusive Hawkmoth. Over a year had passed since her inheriting of the ladybug miraculous and she and Chat were no closer to finding the manipulative villain. Sitting here in her home classroom, she usually had other things to occupy her mind. Her next original work, helping to lead the class as president, and Adrien were some of the best options.
But today was different. Today, she had larger and more important things to worry her. Things that she had never considered in her year as a superhero in this fight between good and evil. In the span of 14 hours, Marinette's world had expanded exponentially, far beyond her hometown of Paris to encompace the entire globe and all the different people in it. Thinking about it now, she should have realized that it was only a matter of time before people more important than her friends, neighbors, and fellow citizens took notice of her super-heroine persona. It was a wonder the French government hadn't tried to contact her already, but now she was beginning to realize that many in positions of power around the planet had their eyes on her and her partner. What's more, she was beginning to wonder if herself, Chat, and Halkmoth, were the only miraculous users.
For you see, yesterday was the day that Ladybug and Chat Noir had been soundly defeated.
OoOoOoO
Let me know what ya’ll thought!
