Time

Lady Shadow frowned. Changing the timeline hadn’t erased her like it had in the past. Instead it turned her into a remnant. Worse still, it seemed that Shadowmoth was not dead. She saw the life leaving him and yet there was still breathe and a heart beat. She focused as she flipped through the journal. Foolish past self had not got back in time to take the book. She read carefully, somehow knowing what it meant. She smirked evilly as she plucked a hair from the ailing Agreste and cast a terrible spell before dropping liquid down his throat.

Light filled him before he dissolved to light and flew inside Emelie Agreste. “Well he is reunited with her now!” she smirked. She took the hair and dropped it into a cauldron of the potion she devised. She applied it to the cane and fan. They dissolved into the brooch and a purple ring. She smirked as she put them on. She turned, seeking a mirror. She smiled at the sight. She was Gabriel Agreste now. Now, how best to enjoy this?

She looked over his setup. It looked like he had cameras over the mansion so that he couldn’t be caught unawares. Mayura was resting, looking weak but sexy. Lady Shadow licked her lips as she watched her. Adrien was resting too….but something was off. He seemed like he wasn’t really moving naturally, too slow even. Had Adrien put a dummy or something and was out somewhere? She went through the book and found a spell to expose things. A quick, silent exposure with the spell and corresponding potion revealed that Adrien was using magic to shield himself. And that was a dummy in bed. Lady Shadow was concerned….until she saw Cat Noir enter Adrien’s bedroom. Her eyes widened when Cat Noir….turned back into Adrien.
