I groaned as I walked into my apartment. My parents owned a small Cafe, a simple come in and eat and drink. We sold food, like pizza, sandwiches, and a few baked goods. Although we didnt make much of that because of the Bakery across the street, owned by my best friend, Marinette Dupain-Cheng's parents. Her layout to the building was similar to ours, a appartment on top of our shop. I lived across the street from school, exactly like Mari, but mirrored.

I had just gotten home from a long day at Collège Françoise Dupont, my highschool. Chloé Bourgeois, also the bratt of the school (who is also the Mayors daughter), was being her usual self and getting on my nerves. I couldnt wait to get into bed. Tomorrow Mari and our other best friend, Alya Césaire were going to hangout at the park and watch Alya's little sisters. The 3 of us were the 3 musketeers. Chloé called is the 3 trashcans on Sesame Street. To which I clapped back immediately, protecting my friends, saying that meant she was the puppet that lived in the trash. To which she did what she usually does. Make a un-humanly screech and called Sabrina Raincomprix, her bestfriend/personal assistant, and they stomped away.

I already knew what the topic would be tomorrow. Whether Mari would confess her love for Adrien Agreste, the famous model who's dad is a extremely famous and talented fashion designer. And Alya's boyfriend and Adriens best friend, Nino Lahiffe. The 5 of us were friends, although because of Adriens tight schedules and strict father, he never really got to hangout with us.

The subject would also contain Alya fangirling over the Miraculous League. Which consists of Ladybug, the holder for the Ladybug Miraculous. Cat Noir, holder of the Black Cat Miraculous. Rena Rouge, the holder of the Fox Miraculous. Carapace, holder of the Turtle Miraculous. On certain occasions, Queen Bee, holder of the Bee Miraculous since Chloè revealed it was her out of spite. And then me. The holder of the Dragon Miraculous, and everyone called me Dragonne, which is French for Dragon. I'm an occasional show up. Mostly because Ladybug came to me one day, asking me to help with the Wolf Miraculous. And with that Miraculous I am called Wolf. Our Freshman year is was just LB and Cat Noir, sophomore was when LB started recruiting, and now our Junior Year we became the Miraculous League.

We aren't allowed to know each others identities. To keep our families safe. My Dragon Miraculous was not given to me like Rena Rouge or Carapace or Queen Bee. Mine was a family heirloom. I knew about Master Fu, the guardian of the Miraculous. I've never met him, his concealment urgent.

I notice I was home alone, no parents in sight. They must still be at work.

"You look horrible." My kwami, Longg said. Her black scales reflected purple in the kitchen light.

"Thanks." I said, giving my kwami her food, Sushi. I yawned.

"Patrol lasted later than I expected last night. I can't believe Rena though Roof Top Tag was a good idea so late." I groaned. My kwami snickered.

"I knew you shouldn't have done that." She laughed. "You should get some sleep before your parents get home for dinner." I nodded, loving her idea, and flung myself on my bed, my kwami falling asleep in the crook of my neck.

🐺💜🐺

"Y/N honey, dinners ready." I heard my mom say. I groaned but got up. Walking into the dining room with a sluggish walk. My mom knew about me being Dragonne, considering she was the former holder and the one who handed it down to me. I froze at the sight of the table.

Ok, mom never makes F/F unless shes about to lay some life changing news on me. And judging by the look on both their faces, I'm about to find out that news.

"Ok, out with it. I know you guys to well." I sighed taking a seat across from my mom at the small table.

"Sweetheart, we've signed you up to be a Foreign Exchange Student at Ninjago High in Ninjago City." Well that was forward and straight to the point. I choked on the bite I had taken. I swallowed and starred at my parents wide eyed.

"Did you say, Ninjago city. As in 'half way cross the globe' Ninjago City?" Mom nodded, confirming.

"I have an old friend there who you will be staying with." Mom said.

"What-uh, but- how long?!"

"To finish your Highschool years. You're almost halfway through being a Junior." Dad said.

"You'll be leaving next week on Saturday. This week coming will be your last week." Mom added.

"But that's 4 months before the 1st Semester ends! Not to mention we just started school!" I stressed. My mom glared at me.

"This is what's best. For you, and your alter ego. There are powers you must unlock there and not in Paris." That's when I knew I was screwed. I was not getting out of this. I finished the last of my food, and went into my room immediately changing into my PJs and heading to bed. My kwami looked at me with sympathy.

"Ninjago City. Why Ninjago of all places." I said.

"I dont know. But I'll be with you every step of the way." Longg said. That's when the tears kicked in. I sniffed and tried my best to fall asleep.

🐺💜🐺

Waking up was a bitch. Having to face Mari and Alya later today was even more of a bitch. After getting dressed in Jean's and a simple F/C tee and my converse, I made my way over to the park. The closer I got, the more sad and nervous I became. As I entered, Alya waved me down. I slowly made my way over. My friends took notice of it, and my slightly puffy eyes.

"What's wrong?" Mari asked. I quickly brought the two into a hug. And started lightly crying.

"Girl, what wrong? You can tell us." Alya said, pulling back to look at me. I sniffed.

"You might want to sit down." I told the girls. They complied, their worried faces burning into my memory. I sat down, staring at my hands.

"Last night, my parents told me something." I started.

"Are you adopted?" Mari asked, jumping to a conclusion. I shook my head.

"Its worse. Much worse."

"Well. Spit it out!" Alya said.

"My parents signed me up to be a Forien Exchange Student in Ninjago city."

"They WHAT?!"

"Yeah." I said looking down again.

"I take it back. Dont tell us." Alya said.

"I leave next week on Saturday." I said. They brought ms into a hug, and the stupid water works started again. "I'm gonna miss you guys so much."

"Let's not cry until you actually leave. When are you going to tell everyone else?" Alya asked.

"Monday, at school. I start packing tomorrow." I answered.

"I'll come over and help." Mari said with a frown. Knowing the situation with helping a friend pack to the point where they leave.

"Well. We'll just have to make the best out of this week." Alya said, standing up and fist bumping the air. I smiled at my friend, before joining her and her definition of fun.

🐺💜🐺

I was so not excited when Monday rolled around. Having to tell my class I was leaving? No thank you. But I didn't exactly have a choice. I slugged into class taking my usual seat behind Mari. Both Alya and Mari looked at me sadly. Nino and Adrien, who sat in front of Alya and Mari, gave me concerned and confused looks. Not that I blame them. I look depressed and I had asked the girls not to tell anyone. So I'm sure they were confused. As more people piled in, the more nervous and fidgety I got.

"Alright class, today I have some bad news. Y/N?" Miss Bustier said. Everyone turned towards me as I walked to the front of the class.

"So, I found out this weekend my parents signed me up to be a Foreign Exchange Student in Ninjago and I leave this Saturday." I said, saying it all at once. Everyone was quiet, for a few seconds anyway.

"What!"

"No. I wont allow it."

"Then I'm coming with."

"You cant leave."

"Nuh-uh."

"I'm strapping you to my chair."

"Everyone! Simmer down!" Miss Bustier said. Everyone got quiet immediately. "This is her last week, so let's make it count."

🐺💜🐺

The week went by fast. To fast for my liking. Every day after school a few of my friends would come over and help me pack or so we could just hand out. Monday after school, all the girls came over. Minus Chloé, Sabrina and Lila Rossi, the liar of the school. She had almost everyone fooled.

Alix Kumdel, Juleka Couffaine, Rose Lavillant, and Mylène Harpèle. Plus Alya and Mari.

Alix was a sports and edge type of girl. She always had on her rollerblades. The two of us bonded because of that, we would always race against Kim.

Juleka was the silent but edgy girl who had a tiny bit of emo in her. She was extremely nice. We usually called her Jules. Her older brothers name was Luka. He had a crush on Mari, but she swears her heart is saved for Adrien. Luka plays guitar and is a really good singer. He leads the band Kitty section.

Rose was a girly girl, and loved anything cute. She is also dating Juleka.

Mylène was the silent one who loved music. She is dating Ivan Bruel, someone who is just like her.

And as for the other two, Mari was a shy, awkward girl. She dreams of being a fashion designer, and shes already a really good one.

Alya, well, shes the spunky, confident girl. Shes a really good blogger, and even has her own blog, the Ladyblog. Which is a blog for Ladybug and the other superheros (mostly Ladybug).

Then theres me.

All day after school we were in Mari's room. We made friendship bracelets that we promised to never take off. We took alot of photos, dressed in different clothes Mari both made and designed. Had a mini fashion show added to that. We also made our own t-shirts. I had a black Imagine Dragons t-shirt that I turned into a muscle tee that was still dress code. I cut it so when I wore my black, high waisted, ripped jeans it would just about go past the belt line (I had cut it that short for the design). This design was cool one, possibly one of my favorites. I cut a small slit on the middle of the front and the back. Flipped the shirt inside out, placed a key ring on the slit, making each flap go under and over the ring. Attaching jewelry chain to each key ring twice, two different lengths per side. I had a really cool new shirt.

I also took 2 pairs of jeans, one of them being my black ones for the Imagine Dragons tee, and did the paint the back pocket trend. The black one I painted the Imagine Dragons logo that matched the shirt. The other one was normal washed out blue ripped jeans that were high waisted as well. I painted the background a cool purple sky with different shades, little stars decorated the background. I also added sunflowers on it, since the purple and sunflower aesthetic was sadly underwhelmed and deserved more. The others did similar paintings as there normal style. Mari did her cherry blossoms. Alya did her phone. Alix did her skates. Rose did a pink flower. Juleka did a cool lace design.

Tuesday came around and me, Alya, Nino, Adrien, and Mari hung out playing video games at Alyas. We goofed around the whole time, pillow fights, pizza eating contest, dancing contest, etc.

Wednesday Adrien suprised me saying that his dad was going to do a photoshoot, and wanted me to be apart of it. Me and Adrien were like siblings, and we had done a photoshoot in the past, merrily for fun but were published too, for his Nature line. I was mostly modeling the butterfly themed clothes and Adrien modeled the dragonfly themed clothes. And a few other models did other animals. But this new line was actually really cool, especially with Winter coming. It was a Velvet themed line. All fabric was felt, and holy cow I loved it. Gabriel Agreste always had really cool designs. I wore a emerald green, off the shoulder, sweetheart neckline, mid thigh, semi tight but fitting and flattering dress. The stylist matched that dress with a black knee high boots. And a small 1 and a half inch heel. Mostly because Adrien was really tall and he was my modeling partner. I was sat down and the makeup artist added minimal face makeup, saying the camera smooths the face. I was also given a feline style eyeliner, some mascara and a pinkish nude lip. Since I was not just going to be wearing this one dress, my makeup had to fit all my outfits. Gold jewelry was also added.

The poses were meant to be normal but with a 'seductive' look. I'm sure my look was stupid, but the photographer loved it. Me and Adrien did some poses together. One was his arm over my shoulder looking down at me. I had my hip jutted out and my arms crossed smirking at him. Although we bursted out laughing afterwards, not being able to look at each other like that for long.

We did a bunch of other pieces, poses, and I had a blast. The rest of the class came by and cheered us on. My last look was a dark purple, sweetheart neck, fitted shirt that's long sleeves didnt start till mid shoulder, so it showed alot of collarbone. It was also a semi crop top, and that was paired with black jeans from his brand. Along with black ankle boots, with the same size heel. I was given silver jewelry to match. I did a few more poses by myself and with Adrien before Natalie, Gabriel Agreste's personal assistant came over. She whispered something in the photographer's ear before he nodded and went into the little tent we had set up. That's when I noticed the whole class was gone. I tilted my head in confusion. Adrien then grabbed my shoulders and turned me around. There was my class, all dressed in different outfits from this collection.

"My dad is allowing us to take class photos. So we can all have printed copies before you leave." Adrien said. Tears swelled up in my eyes. I was quick to get them away. Knowing the makeup artist would not be happy.

So there we all were. Being idiots taking silly photos. And one nice one.

Thursday the whole class hung out in the library at the school. We played Max's game with the Akumas and Heros. We also had a bunch of food from my parents cafe and sweets from Mari's parents bakery.

Friday was really hard. I stayed after school in the art room, doodling with Marc and Nathaniel. Marc wasnt in our class, but we all knew him since he still went to our school. However, in an hour my parents were throwing a goodbye party at the park. So I left the school and went to my place to get ready. I showered and let my hair naturally dry. I put on a nice sunflower sun dress and white sandals. I left my hair alone and just added mascara to my eyelashes. I quickly realized I was running a bit behind and grabbed my white crossbody, my kwami going in there along with my phone and chapstick. I headed to the park to see most of my friends already there. I smiled and headed over.

🐺💜🐺

"Ok, time to open gifts." My mom said. I looked at her confused.

"Gifts?"

"Duh. Did you think we were going to let you leave without stuff to remember us by?" Alya said. I smiled at her. First, Mari handed me a neatly wrapped box. When I opened it, I was met with a bunch of fabric paint and a jewelry making kit. I smiled brightly hugging her with a 'thank you'.

Next, Alya handed me a small box. Inside was a beautiful gold necklace with a crescent moon. And a flash drive labeled memories. I put the necklace on immediately.

"If your ever feeling lonely, just watch that. It's a video of all our best memories. And the necklace is real gold so you dont have to worry about it getting nasty with water." Alya said. I hugged her too, mumbling a thank you.

"And look on the back of the necklace." She said. Looking on the back, there was an engraving.

"The sun, the moon and the stars? A. F/I. M?" I read out loud. Alya then showed me her machting necklace, with a sun. And Mari showed hera with a star.

"We are the sun, the moon, and the stars. And our initials in order of the saying." Alya said. I started crying and hugged the two. These necklaces matched the tattoo we got when we all turned 16, my parents still dont know. Not that they'll notice. The tattoo was slightly right of my left hip bone so it wasnt on the actual done, on my front side and not on my back or side. You couldnt see it when I wore high waisted jeans, just you could see it with normal mid rise jeans. Hence why I usually wore high waisted and if I didnt I had something covering it.

It was a simple black tattoo. Not to big, not to small. It was in the shape of a crescent moon, just like my necklace. But the saying was below it and had quotation marks. It read:

"The Sun, The Moon, and The Stars"

~A, F/I, M

And right above that was the moon. Alya obviously had the Sun and Mari had the Stars.

Sitting back down, Nino handed me a box, and inside was a pair of silver Beats and a music disc with the Imagine Dragons Megamix 2 on it. I squealed and hugged him too, saying thank you.

And then Adrien rolled up 3 suitcases.

"There are almost all the women's clothes from the photoshoot we did. Theres a card in there too that will allow you to get any item you want from the Gabriel Agreste stores. Theres one in Ninjago apparently." He explained I hugged him, saying thank you.

Alix got me a pair of roller blades, since she had taught me how to skate. Max gave me a copy of his video game, so I could play. Kim added on to that gift giving me a gamer set that would allow me to play with them whenever we could. Mylène and Ivan got me a bunch of albums from my favorite bands, including some of those small pins. Nathaniel and Marc gave me a comic they made of me as a superhero. Ironic. Rose gave me a cool keychain out of resin with a rose in it. Juleka got me all 4 Avenvers movies on DVD. Eventually we all got our photos from the photoshoot too.

I hugged and thanked everyone. Everyone left, one by one, saying goodbye with a few tears. I figured that Mari and Alya would be there at the airport tomorrow, so we didnt have a super sad goodbye.

Once I finished lugging and packing everything I got, I sat on my bed, thinking. I went up to my balcony, which wasnt as big as Marinettes, but still pretty roomy. I leaning against the railing, letting the tears flow. It's going to be so hard to say goodbye to my home. I heard a thump and turned around. Only to be met with Ladybug, holding out a Miraculous box for me. She gave me a sad smile.

"You found out, didnt you?" I asked. She nodded. I sighed.
