"Hello Princess Justice, you have-"

"I know Hawkmoth. I'm not fighting with you this time. However, I would like to do my work my way and look how I want."

Hawkmoth chuckled. The girl was bold, and by the high rise of her negative emotions, this girl would be his most powerful victim yet. He knew from the start when she first declined him, that her power would raise more and more as time went on. almost three years of struggle and closed off emotions. yes. this would be perfect. And that Italian girl, Lila, only helped. Now he had no need for her as he now has his new and most powerful Akuma.

"Very well. Do what you must, however, you must-"

"Bring you the miraculous. I know the drill"

He chuckled again. "Perfect"

At that moment, she was surrounded by darkness.

Felix bounced his knee impatiently and rather anxiously. He was barely paying attention to whatever miss Bustier was saying.

Marinette was late for class. That didn't make sense to him at all. She'd said in the group chat that she would be in the library. But she wasn't here.

He asked Nino and Chloe if they saw her but they didn't either. The three checked in the library and asked the librarian if she had seen Marinette. She said only four younger boys had come in early to finish a project and no one else.

"Something doesn't feel right" Chloe whispered. "Marinette has been late before but not..." She checked the time on her phone "38 minutes late"

"Yeah, that's really strange. She never said anything to update us. I tried to call her, she's not picking up. and she hasn't opened my messages" said Nino.

Felix ran a hand through his hair in frustration. He was worried for his Angel. For all, he knows she may be hurt. But she could also be caught up in something. He isn't sure.

A sudden sound of deep rumbling thunder was heard outside.

'Surely there was not meant to be a storm today?' He thought.

He hadn't brought a coat with him or an umbrella and if it were to rain he'll be annoyed. If Marinette doesn't show up soon, he'll go to see her. But he also doesn't want to get wet.

His suspicions however all crossed out when a figure appeared on top of Miss Bustiers desk in the blink of an eye.

His eyes widened. It was an Akuma.

And not just any Akuma. A very familiar person was behind that mask and he could tell...

Marinette. Hawkmoth got to her? How!? What could have happened!?

He took in her appearance.

Her hair was up in a regal looking bun with a few jewels in and a scale was crowned on her bun. Her lips were blood red and glossy. She had a knee-length dark red corset dress that hugged her figure with slits at either side from her mid-thigh down and it had Chinese themed gold embroideries patterned on the skirt. The long sleeves we're slightly puffed up to the forearms. on her feet, she wore short golden heels with crisscrossed straps that went up to her knees She had a sword clutched in her right hand and a scale in her right. Her eyes were covered in a dark red blindfold so he couldn't see her eyes. But he knew it was her for sure.

"Good day dear class" she purred. "I do hope you have had a productive morning"

"W-who are you?" Rose asked.

"Aw, Rose, you don't recognise me? I truly am hurt" she responded in mock ache and gave her a small pout.

"Marinette?" Adrien gasped.

"Ah, ah not Marinette. It's Princess Justice. Don't get it wrong again" she demanded. Her aura was extremely dark and powerful.

"She's after me!" Lila whimpered. "She got herself akumatized so she can hurt me!" Lila wailed

"Seriously Marinette!" Alya yelled. "Was the lesson not enough for you!? Now you go to the extent of becoming an Akuma!? Not only are you a bully, your basically a fucking terrorist and you-ahh!" Alya flew across the room into a bookshelf.

'What the- what lesson!?' Felix thought worriedly.

Princess Justice barely moved a muscle. She was leaning against her sword, looking towards Alya. Even with her blindfold, you could feel the heated glare she was giving Alya.

"I suggest you watch your tone, Alya. Also, get your facts checked. You, all of you got me akumatized. Well, maybe not all. Just the sheep and the liar" she taunted.

She then turned towards Lila. "Perhaps I'll start with the snake" she raised her sword looking like she was about to strike the girl, but a certain blonde got in her way.

"Stop! Marinette this isn't you! You can't be doing this, you were meant to-"

"Silence!" She boomed. Her voice seemed to echo and cause the desks to shake a bit. Another clap of thunder was heard outside.

"You do not tell me what to do. You do not even get to begin with your ridiculous advice. You are one of the most wretched pieces of garbage I have ever met! You are a countless coward who thinks everything can be resolved with sunshine and rainbows. Wake the fuck up and come back to reality!" She yelled. She slashed her sword and a bright pink beam came out the tip. Adrien managed to push both him and Lila out of the way. he felt like he had been shot at every word that Marinette said to him just then.

The blast caused the wall to crumble and the others took that as a chance to escape. Princess Justice giggled and watched as they began to run out of the classroom.

"I wanted a bit of a chase anyway" she chuckled.

"Marinette," she was about to go after some of them but she stopped when she heard his voice.

"Felix" she responded.

She could tell that he was wondering how she became like this. She knew he preferred to talk and look into her eyes at the same time. There is a reason she has the blindfold. If her blindfold was to break...she doubts Paris could ever be saved. She may be akumatized but she knows what she doing and she doesn't intend on causing harm to the whole city. Heck, the whole of France even.

"How..." He began in a broken whisper.

Princess Justice sighed and took a leap, flowed swiftly in the air and landed softly in front of him. She saw him flinch back when she reached out to touch him.

"I'm still here darling. I won't hurt you, Felix. I promised, I'd always be careful" she said softly, running her free hand down him. She smiled sweetly at him. "I just have a few people to deal with" He should have found her smile appealing. But he didn't. This wasn't really her.

"You don't have to do this. You cannot let him control you Angel" he said. He saw Princess Justice's stance loosen a bit but she straightened herself.

"I do. You know I do. You should've seen what they did to me on my way to school. All of them. And your cousin..." her lips twisted into a look of utter disgust.

"What did they do?" He asked. He dreaded the worst at this point.

"I could tell you. But I'd rather show you" she said. He was about to ask what she meant but she held out her sword towards the board and a blue ray came out projecting this morning's events in the form of a hologram.

He felt sick to his stomach as he saw Marinette get beaten up. He felt even sicker when he saw that his cousin just stood there. He saw the whole class beating up Marinette, not a single look of regret on any of their faces. They seemed to be enjoying inflicting pain in the girl. Even that small blonde, Rose, slapped her!

"They did that to you?" He whispered. "And I wasn't there" his shoulders dropped.

Princess Justice closed the hologram and turned back to her boyfriend. "I don't blame you, Felix. Or Nino, or Chloe. I don't blame anyone who wasn't involved. You guys wouldn't have known."

"I should have been there with you. If I had been t-this..." He gestured towards her. "Wouldn't be happening"

"Felix, Lila and the others need to learn their lesson. The sooner the better. Today was my breaking point. They could come for you, Nino or Chloe next. Lila made Alya break up with Nino. She won't stop in trying to destroy me unless she is exposed and there is justice. I'm not just doing this for myself. I'm also protecting other potential victims." She shook her head.

"This Princess has a job to do." And without another word, she vanished and quick as light.
