The night air over the Eiffel Tower was crisp and quiet broken only by the hum of late evening traffic along the Seine. Marinette perched on the edge of a cold stone gargoyle her yo yo humming quietly at her side as she surveyed the sleeping city. Cat Noir landed beside her without a sound his typical playful grin tempered by the unusual chill lingering in the Parisian air.

Tikki had felt the ripple first during dinner a sudden sharp vibration through the Kwami bond that felt neither like Hawk Moth nor any known miraculous holder.

Every quiet rooftop leap brought them closer to an answer that would challenge everything they knew about the miraculous universe. The chase had officially begun and Paris would never be quite the same.
