Back to School
The next morning, Adrien still sleeps in a coffin but he sometimes sleeps in beds less often while more in a coffin. He woke up floating in the air but accidentally bumped into a chandelier.
"URGH! I must move the coffin or the chandelier" He groaned and floats down.
"Or perhaps move away from it without floating like a possessed demon from your open coffin" Felix snickered.
"I gotta get used to this," Adrien said.
"Perhaps next time a bed, not a comfy coffin for you to go into the death realm to communicate with the dead" Felix put on his shirt.
"Okay" Adrien got dressed, "But I'm a vampire and it's in my nature sleeping in coffins. As well as adding a pillow and a comfy blanket to sleep like a human" Adrien said and put on his black with blue highlights wig, "Except having no reflection" He sighed at his lack of reflection in the mirror.
"Ah yes," Felix noticed.

Later at school, Marinette was waiting for Adrien. The limo pulled over and the twins stepped out of the car. Adrien was still trying to get used to the sunlight but he wore sunglasses.
"Hey Princess" He greeted Marinette.
"Hey Prince Charming," Marinette said.
"As much as I love to see you kiss but everyone is waiting for us," Felix said.
"Let's go," Adrien said.
As always in school, things have changed a lot since the school has improved, and no longer under the abuse of power by Chloe since she likes to punish innocent victims and let bad students get away with everything. The security has gotten better too. Everyone else moved on from Cerise who was nothing but a con person and a pathological liar to damage relationships and twist their emotions and choices to go against their close ones for her.
Everyone waved at them since they knew they were the ones to put a stop to Lila and Chloe in this school. Everyone has worshipped "Aiden Bastet" for standing up against Chloe during his first day in school as a new student. Marinette never needs to suffer from her anymore.
"Good morning, Marinette" Alya greeted her.
"Morning Alya. Guess who's back from his vacation" Marinette said.
"Aiden Bastet" Alya saw Adrien.
"Hey guys" Adrien tried not to smile to reveal his fangs out in public.
"How was the trip to Mexico?" Alya asked.
"It was amazing. My first time was like paradise when it comes to a luxury hotel" Adrien said before heading to his locker, "Other than that, Spanish is like a caliente language"
"Nice. I'd love to go there one day" Alya said.
"But it was fun to enjoy a vacation" Adrien grabbed his books.
"Everyone needs it once in a while," Marinette said.
"Which you convinced me to need one," Adrien said.
"You're welcome," Marinette said.
"By the way, how was everyone at school doing I see it has changed a lot" Adrien walks into the classroom with them.
"Ever since you dethroned Chloe like a charming prince, Marinette became the new queen and class representative. Pretty much you were like our miracle for revolution" Nino said.
"I hope Chloe learned the hard way what abuse of powers can turn you into," Adrien said.
"That's on her for not trying to understand but where she comes from, high society is her world than lower social class level like us," Nino said before taking his seat,
"Which is why everyone still talks about the story of you and Claw Noir standing up against her," Alya said.
"The only favorite story," Marinette said.
"Or that witch Lila getting killed a year ago," Nino said.
"Yes, well, she won't be haunting beyond her grave. Adrien Agreste and his family are avenged already" Adrien said and took his seat next to Nino.
"Yep, a hex lifted" Nino said.
"Something like that," Adrien said.

After a class of learning physics was over, they headed to the cafeteria to join with Felix. Adrien always made sure he distinguished his bottle drink for blood but to everyone's view, they think it's cranberry juice.
"Good to see everyone happy to see you arrive," Felix said.
"Yeah, I missed them all," Adrien said.
"And I hope you're not too annoyed with Kim's childish pranks," Felix said.
"As long as they don't include stinking garlic," Adrien said.
"Last time you nearly almost fainted by the stench of garlic. Are you sure you can't withstand garlic?" Felix snickered.
"Yes, it makes me nauseous," Adrien said.
"You're such a dramatic undead man" Felix ate his sandwich.
"Mmmhmm?" Adrien ate his lunch.
"I'm serious. You let your vampire weakness control you" Felix said.
"I can't teach my weakness to be strong against it, Felix. And mortals also have a weakness too you know. I get stressed when I have too much cravings for this" Adrien holds his disguised bottle of blood.
"I understand," Felix said.
"Hello boys" Alya came to sit next to them along with Nino and Marinette.
"Hello there" Adrien greeted them.
"Everyone sure talks a lot about you these days," Nino said.
"I know" Adrien replied.
"You're like a legend, man" Nino ate his food.
"Heh, they always say I'm a legend" Adrien chuckled.
"So tell us your stories in Mexico. Was Day of the Dead very fascinating?" Alya said.
"It sure was," Adrien said.
"Were the Xolo dogs like spirit creatures to guide the dead?" Nino asked.
"Not exactly," Adrien said.
"Come on. You always visit the cemetery a lot to honor the family for Felix" Alya reminded him.
"You got me there, I did visit the cemeteries in Mexico too," Adrien said.
"I certainly hope it wasn't haunting" Marinette teased.
"I do love haunted places. I never get spooked. So how was school going while I was away?" Adrien asked.
"Well, it's becoming better since Chloe moved to London after being banished," Marinette said.
"I just hope she can be taught a lesson about why being a selfish brat is a lonely life. It's the same for people who become monsters are scary and scary people are lonely because no one wants to be around them" Adrien explained why it's wrong to bully victims.
"She doesn't care about intentions or consequences. In her eyes, she only views everyone as losers. That's another reason why Sabrina ended her friendship with her because she had enough of Chloe's disrespect" Alya said.
"Yep. And being treated like a slave" Marinette said.
"But no more. I saved the school and dethroned her. Marinette became a new queen" Adrien chuckled.
"Yes, well, they all voted me as class representative which wasn't my idea but they say I was the right person for it," Marinette said.
"The right decision too," Adrien said.
"Can you ever imagine if you didn't move to Paris to change this?" Felix asked.
"I could" Adrien replied.

After school was over, Adrien headed to the bakery to meet the bakers to let them know he was back home from last night.
"Welcome home, Aiden" Tom greeted him.
"Thank you. It's good to see you two again. How's the bakery while I was away?" Adrien asked.
"The business here is doing great as usual, without that Audrey Bourgeois to complain and threaten to shut it down," Tom said as Sabine came in.
"Indeed. Ever since you moved here, you were like our miracle" Sabine said.
"Heh, everyone says the same thing to me that I'm their miracle. I couldn't done it without Marinette and my cousin Felix. They deserve credit. Also, Claw Noir did help too" Adrien said before picking croissants to buy.
"He did Paris a big favor," Sabine said.
"And he also dethroned Chloe and stopped Cerise's nasty lies" Marinette added.
"You really are something, Aiden" Tom said proudly.
"Paris made me something," Adrien said and took a bag of croissants, "How I miss my favorite treat. Sugar skulls in Mexico are sweet but I still love your bakery"
"Thank you, Aiden. You're always welcome here" Tom smiled.
"Thank you so much. I'll see you later, Mari. Always keep smiling more" Adrien winks at her before taking his leave.
"I will" Marinette winks back.
Adrien heads home to the mansion while Plagg hides in his jacket. For a vampire boy who remained 16 for over a century, sometimes he is not much of a birthday person who can't age at all.
"It really sucks that I barely age," Adrien said.
"Many wish for longevity these days," Plagg said.
"You lived billions of years old, Plagg" Adrien came to the entrance gate and made a huge jump to head to his bedroom window.
"Right of course," Plagg said.
Felix saw Adrien coming through the open window, "You know the door is open"
"True but I like making a better entrance than doors" Adrien chuckled.
"Do you always have to be this badass as yourself this time?" Felix chuckled before petting his dog Argos.
"Why not?" Adrien sat on the couch.
"Because it's always what you're good at without how it doesn't get too old on you," Felix said.
"Yes, and so is this guy in those comic books. He's been around for 200 years and is still a badass" Adrien read a Wolverine comic book.
"You read too many comics like a real teenager than an old man your ancient age" Felix teased.
"Funny. But still, it's great to be home again. I see things haven't changed much in Paris. And you haven't changed much" Adrien grabs his bottle of blood to quench his thirst.
"I changed a bit when we first met," Felix said before putting his homework in his school bag.
"Yep, back when I found out I got living distant relatives," Adrien said.
"And still held on to your disappearance story which you hated the most" Felix said before getting changed into his PJs.
"Yes, because of Lila" Adrien replied.
"Do you know why the world thinks vampires, witches, and other supernatural don't exist to them?" Felix asked.
"Because of books and movies or rumors?" Adrien guessed.
"No, because if they discover they are real, they would want their power to destroy mankind. It's the same with other myths that did not exist. There's a reason why they want the world to believe they are a myth or not real, so it doesn't get discovered by mankind. Can you imagine if they found out you have immortality?" Felix asked before getting to his bed.
"All hell would break loose" Adrien replied.
"Yup. Why has Lila been in hiding by changing her name a lot for over a century?" Felix asked.
"To not give away it's her cheating death," Adrien said.
"Yup. But you and Ladybug are like real magic because no human can jump that high on tall buildings like that" Felix said.
"Of course we do, Felix. Now if you'll excuse me, I have a princess waiting for me. Plagg, claws out" Adrien transformed.
"Hooker" Felix teased him.
But Claw Noir ignored him and headed out to the bakery.
