《Out With The Old, In With The New》Chapter 5 - Can't catch a break
Advertisement
Everyone is sleeping peacefully- everyone but Alix that is. No matter how hard she tries she can't get comfortable, she constantly feels like something is moving on her.
She jumps up only to slip on something slimy and fall on her ass. She feels around and feels her entire sleeping bag full of worms.
She jumps away from her sleeping bag and screams, waking up all the girls.
Marinette: W-what's happening!?
Juleka: Who's hurt!?
Chloe: What's wrong!?
Alix: They- they put- they put worms in my sleeping bag!
Juleka turns the lights on and they all see Alix's sleeping bag full of worms.
Kagami: That's absolutely sick!
Lila: I'm gonna be sick!
She runs to the nearest bathroom and pukes her guts out and Alix storms out of their room to go to the boy's room.
Marinette goes after her trying to stop her from possibly harming their friends.
Marinette: Alix, think about this for a minute.
Alix: I've thought about this enough! Don't worry I'm not gonna hurt them-
Marinette: That's Good-
Alix: I'm just gonna intimate them a little.
She has a sadistic smile on her face and Marinette waits on the other side of the hall.
Alix pounds on the door until it flings open and she hits Nino in his chest a few times making him fall onto the floor.
Nino: Dudette, what the hell-
Alix: Can it, DJ Turtle!
Trixx: Hi Alix!
Alix: Hey, Trixx!
She looks around and does a head count, noticing that Nathaniel isn't there, she goes looking around the room.
Sass: Are you looking for ssssomething, Alix?
Alix: Have any of you seen Nath?
Ivan: Sorry, no-
Alix: I know he's somewhere in here, now, if you don't tell me where I'm going to harm you.
Max: How are you gonna-
Alix: Max, I love you, but keep talking and I'm stomping on your dick.
Xuppu: He's in the closet.
Kim: Damn, that was harsh!
Alix: Thank you little Monkey! I have a bag of Banana chips with your name on them!
Xuppu: Alright!
She opens the closet and smiles down sweetly at Nathaniel, who is avoiding all eye contact with her.
Alix: Hello, Nathaniel, I have a question for you!
Wayzz: Why am I afraid?
Stompp: Maybe she's scary when she's angry?
Ivan: She is...
Nathaniel: W-what's the q-question?
Alix: You remember that science class, when we did the study on WORMS?
All the girls enter the room with their hands clasped together.
Alix: Remember when you got really interested in the topic of WORMS?
Nathaniel: What are you getting at?
Alix: WHY IN THE FUCK DID YOU PUT WORMS IN MY SLEEPING BAG YOU TOMATO HEAD LOOKING DOOFUS!?
She starts shaking him by the collar of his shirt to the point he gets whiplash.
Nathaniel: It! Was! Funny! To! Me! Please! Stop! Shaking! Me?
She stops shaking him and he falls on his back trying to steady his eyesight.
Alix: I'm on your back too, Nath. Watch it, you're on thin ice.
He nods in fear and slowly gets up making his way to his sleeping bag and falling face first onto it.
Chloe: Scary...she's very scary
Kagami: Very scary indeed.
Chloe's butler comes into the room with three vases of flowers with notes attached to the bow that wrapped around the vase.
Jean: Mademoiselles have packages that have just arrived.
Chloe: Jean, why are you not in bed? You need to be rested, you're very busy you know!
Jean: I know, Mademoiselle. I was thirsty, so I went to get some water, but a florist dropped off some flowers addressed to you.

Marinette: Oh...Bluebells?
Lila: California Poppies?
Chloe: Yellow Roses?
They each take a vase and smell their flowers.
Chloe: Go to bed, Jean, I don't want you to be tired in the morning.
Jean: Alright, mademoiselle Chloe.
Jean leaves and Chloe, Marinette, and Lila stand there glaring at the flowers in their hands.
Chloe: This game their playing is not funny.
Lila: They've already got a high fucking score.
Marinette: This is not making my life any easier and he knows this.
Kaalki: Maybe to them you're famous!
Marinette: The only thing that Kacey would remember me for, is that time he put neon pink hair dye in my shampoo!
They untie the note from the ribbon and Lila takes it.
Lila: You and I both know that you don't have the guts to read this.
Marinette: I don't-
Lila: Than I'mma do it!
Marinette: How about you-
"Here's a bouquet of Bluebells for my Bluebell loving Princess. Make sure they stay as beautiful as you."
~Your future Husband 😉~
Nino: Her feature what now!?
Marinette: My future huh!?
Nino: As the overprotective older brother, my consent is needed for that to happen!
Marinette: Future- But- He- I-
Kagami: Don't pop a blood vessel thinking about that.
Marinette: If you don't go get fucked by Luka!
Luka: Excuse me!?
Kagami: Say what!?
Marinette: You heard me!
Kagami looks at Chloe and gives her a closed eyed smile.
Kagami: Chloe~ Do you happen to have Kacey's number? He will be very interested to hear what Marinette thinks about the flowers.
Marinette: HE WILL NOT!
Luka: He will!
Max: It's amazing how badly that backfired.
Nathaniel: I see we're worried about Marinette's love life. Great distraction. Thank you.
Marinette: You're making enemies, Nathaniel.
While Marinette is distracted, Chloe quickly puts Kacey's number in Kagami's phone.
Alix: That's what I've been trynna tell him!
Longg: It would be wise to not anger the ladies, they can be very vicious.
Chloe: Only when we're provoked!
Marinette: I'm just gonna...
They take Chloe's note from Jason and starts reading it.
"Queen style roses, for a Queen herself. Enjoy them beautiful."
~Jason Storm~
Chloe: That man is trying to get in my head!
Lila: And you're letting him.
Chloe: And I'm letting him! What does yours say Lila?
Lila: Let's get to bed so we can-
Pollen: Oh no, Lila, they read theirs, so it's only fair that you read your too.
Trixx: She's right y'know!
Wayzz: Can we hear it?
Marinette: C'mon, how can you say no to these little faces?
Lila looks at all the Kwamis with their baby doll eyes and caves.
Lila: Fine...
"Vixen orange colored flowers for my favorite vixen like lady."
~Rivera~
Marinette: Vixen like...OH FUCK!
They run out of the room and comes back with the Rooster Miraculous and Orikko.
Marinette: I was wrong!
Ivan: About what?
Marinette: I was wrong about giving Trixx to Nath! Ok, so, every Miraculous and every Kwami matches with their holders personality in some way. Take Luka and Sass for example, Sass is intuitive, wise, cool and collected.
They point to Luka to prove her point.
Marinette: Just like him! Now, Fluff and Alix! They're both spunky, untamable-
Kim: I agree with you there!
Alix: Hey!
Marinette: Wild cards-
Max: That too!
Alix: What's your point here?
Marinette: Every Kwami, Miraculous and holder has to coordinate with eachother! Like a coordinate plane with a linear scale!
Max: That's...a very smart analogy, Marinette. Honestly surprised it came from you, though.
Marinette: Fuck you, Kanté! My point is, Trixx is...well...tricky, skillful at mastering illusions, can manipulate the world to her small, adorable, little will! Like who?

Kim: Like Lila!
Alix and Max both share a falling tear and fake sniffing moment.
Alix: He's- he's learning!
Max: I- I know!
Kim: You two are the worst.
Marinette: Exactly, Kim! Like Lila! Ergo?
Nino: You were dead ass wrong and you're giving Nathaniel the Rooster, and you're giving Lila the Fox?
Marinette: Exacta Mundo, Nino mi hermano! Catch, Nath!
They throw him the Rooster Miraculous and he toss the Fox pendant to Lila.
Lila: Are you sure this is the best thing to do right now? Everyone already thinks that you took the pendant once, why make them think-
Marinette: Because, you bring out a person's weakness and you exploit it.
Kagami: Smart!
Alix: Awesome!
Chloe: Evil! I love it!
Marinette: Alix...your partner misses you.
Marinette tosses Alix her watch and Fluff flies around her and hugs her cheek.
Fluff: I missed you, Alix!
Alix: Me too...sorry about the whole, Akuma in the Miraculous thing...
Fluff: It's ok! It was uncomfortable for a while, but at least nobody died.
Alix: SOMEBODY COULD'VE DIED!?
Kim: N-NO! Someone could've just gotten seriously hurt and MAYBE would've had bad injuries that could've killed them-
Max: STOP!
Alix: I COULD'VE KILLED PEOPLE!?
Luka: Ok, let's stop here for today!
Alix starts hyperventilating, and Alix and Kim start rubbing her back. She starts slowing down her breathing and falls back asleep due to her tiredness.
Juleka: Wow, she was out like a light.
Lila's phone starts ringing and she lights up at the fact that it Luke. She answers it and is greeted with his, Kacey's and Jason's families.
Everyone: HI!
Lila: Quiet down guys, our friend's asleep- hold on, I'm gonna connect you to the TV.
She connects them to the TV in the room and looks confused when she sees everyone packing.
Lila: Why are you all packing? I thought only Jason, Luke, and Kacey were coming?
Jason: That was the plan, yeah, good new is we're moving there permanently! But...
Chloe: But what?
Luke: We were all evicted from our houses...by order of the city we have to leave. We started packing today, and we have to catch a flight to Paris tonight instead of 2 weeks from now.
Kacey: Please say you have places for us to stay?
Chloe: We have a few rooms left at the hotel, but I'm not sure that many people will fit. Not even if we split them up, plus the rooms might be booked by tomorrow morning. I can't do anything about that unfortunately...
Marinette: I...I can try and make some room at my place. It's not that big, and I'm not sure how many people can fit, but it's better then nothing.
Lila: I can clear out my room and move to the basement of my house, and I talk to my mom to see if we can clear out the attic for you guys.
Chloe: I could give up my room though...do one of you mind if I stay with you? Just for a little while?
Juleka: You're more than welcome to stay with us at the liberty...if that's alright?
Chloe: Thanks, Jules!
Jason and Kacey start wiping their eyes when their little sisters start cheering.
Jason: Hear that Abby? We've got places to stay!
Abby: Who's the pretty blonde haired girl, big bro? She's nice! I like her!
Luke: That's your big bro's future wife, Abby!
Jason: LUCAS RIVERA!
Abby: Mommy! Mommy! Jason's getting married to a pretty girl!
Jason: I-I-
Mrs. Storm: Jason Hudson Strom! When did YOU get a girl?
Kacey: Mrs. Storm, why are you making it sound like your son can't pull hoes?
Lila: Arcs, I KNOW on my LIFE you didn't just call me bestie a hoe!
She puts her hands on her hips and glares at the screen waiting for an answer.
Kacey: I-I didn't mean it like that! I swear! I'm sorry! If it sounded that way, that's not what was meant-
Chloe: Hi, Mrs. Storm!
Mrs. Storm: Chloe, hello! How've you been sweetie?
Chloe: Pretty good, pretty good.
Abby: Miss Chloe, when you and my brother get married...can I be the flower girl?
Luke and Kacey start laughing, Jason sits there shocked, Marinette and Lila hug her, and Chloe stands there with a red face.
Luke: D-don't b-be rude, Chloe! Answer Abby's question- HAHAHAHA!
Jason: Well? Can she?
Chloe: Jason!
Jason: What? The conversation was bound to come up sometime. Better now then later.
Chloe: Better now then-
Jason: Honestly, it depends on when I pop the question.
Chloe: Get out of my head! Stop playing your mind games with me!
Marinette: Speaking of mind games, Arcs! Explain that note with the flowers!
Kacey: Sorry, I can't stay! I have to pack, y'know? Talk when we get there? Yeah? Cool!
Marinette: Kacey!
He quickly goes out of frame and you can hear him laughing somewhere else.
Luke: You're not gonna believe what happened today at school!
Chloe: Hold that thought! We're gotta introduce you to the group!
Marinette: There's Nathaniel the artist.
Nathaniel: Hey.
Chloe: Quick question, no one's homophobic right?
Jason: No! No, no!
Nathaniel: Good, because I'm gayer then gay and dating a man.
Lila: There's Ivan, the drummer for the band Kitty Section.
Ivan: What's up?
Chloe: Then, Kim, the jock, Max the Tecno wiz, and Alix the skater girl. Fyi they're poly and all dating.
Kim: Hey man!
Max: Hello!
Marinette: Then, Nino, my overprotective older brother.
Nino: Tell Arcs that no one is getting married without my consent!
Chloe: And last, but not least, Luka, our main guitar, soul reading, blue haired chill dude.
Luka: 'Sup?
Lila: That's all the guys! Now for the girls!
Marinette: As you know, we mentioned Alix. This is Juleka, Luka's sister.
Juleka: Hey.
Chloe: Kagami, his girlfriend.
Kagami: We aren't dating.
Luka: Please, lay off?
Marinette: Nope! And us!
Chloe: You guys got all that?
Luke: Yeah, well I did, I don't know about the other two.
Kacey: You fucking asshat!
Jason: I don't like you.
Marinette: Thought you had packing to do, Kacey?
They look at the screen with a raised eyebrow, while Kacey just looks at them with a smirk on his face.
Kacey: I said I had packing to do, yes, but I never said I had that much packing to do, Bluebell.
Marinette: You little-!
Mrs. Rivera: Boys! We've leaving now!
Luke: Ok! Seeya when we get there!
Jason: Which is tomorrow!
Kacey: Bye everyone!
Everyone: Bye!
Lila hangs up and her, Marinette, and Chloe all fall to the ground with a groan.
Chloe: We can not catch a break.
Marinette: Really? Who else noticed?
Chloe: Just because your man is talking about marriage, because he's crazy about you, doesn't mean it's my fault.
Marinette: Screw you.
Lila: All of you, just shut up. We got places to be tomorrow, and I wanna sleep. I'm going back to bed. No more worms, Nathaniel!
Nathaniel: Whatever.
The girls go back to their room, while Max puts Alix in one of the beds. Everyone goes back to sleep and have dreams of fighting the toughest Akumas that their brains can imagine.
