Jealousy: The state and or feeling of being jealous.

Adrien's alarm clock beeped on his side table, he smacked the snooze button and yawned, stretching his arms. He stepped out of bed and paced to his bathroom. When he stepped inside Adrien did his daily duties refusing to look in the mirror, he was sixteen now, a normal teenager would still have parents around them as a vice, not Adrien. Gabriel was in jail, and Adrien hoped he stayed there. Gabriel was Hawkmoth, Gabriel was Hawkmoth. Adrien still had to realize these words for the past six months. He walked the halls of the Agreste manor to the kitchen. Nathalie was gone, his body guard was gone, Plagg... Was gone.

Plagg refused to acknowledge Adrien ever since Adrien started to change, while Adrien thought Plagg hated him Plagg was worried. Adrien had always been there for Plagg when he was still Chat, ever since the city wide petition to keep Ladybug and Chat Noir off the streets until, "further notice" Adrien had begun to change. All the people that he thought cared about him, avoided him now, thinking the calm soft spoken Adrien with the innocent and friendly demeanor was gone, and they were right. These days Adrien was brittle and temperamental, annoyed that the citizens of France could be so horrible to himself and Ladybug after Ladybug and Chat had saved them day after day from Akuma after Akuma. Adrien ate in silence watching the news, there was a story about how a young couple was designing clothes for the poor in Paris to be able to have something fun yet warm to wear, Adrien watched half intently half in boredom.

Two familiar faces appeared on the screen, it was Marinette and Nathaniel. Adrien turned up the volume on the TV, after all it was his former class mates. Adrien chuckled and sang to himself in a joking manner.

"Heh, the lonely tomato finally got a girlfriend." Adrien swayed his head mockingly, but he stopped the song after he started thinking about Marinette. Adrien had always felt a fondness for Marinette, she was a sweet and pretty girl that Adrien found out recently had liked him. He continued to watch the program he felt a slowly growing feeling of jealousy. He found himself gripping the glass of orange juice tighter as Marinette stated on how her and Nathaniel bonded over their love for helping people, than she turned to Nathaniel and looked into his eyes.

"I wasn't sure at first, but I think I have found my one and true LOVE." Adrien seethed, hearing that word and as Nathanael and Marinette shared a kiss on TV Adrien hurled his glass of juice towards the TV, the glass smashed on a coffee table just short of the TV which sent medium and small shards of sharp glass scattering around the room. It also coated the coffee table in a sticky and orange mess. Adrien started yelling to no one in particular. In a fit of madness and jealousy he flipped said coffee table, a vein bulging in his head as glass shards went into his hands and he hefted the table over, smashing glass vases that had originally been resting peacefully on a set of books. Adrien panted, hitting his chest and spoke wildly with an insane and angry look in his eye.

"I loved someone once... And guess what," He said a tone of sadness and desperation in his voice, "Because of people like Marinette and Nathanael, I can't see my love ever again!" He yelled to his ceiling than he punched the TV, his hand went through the soft plastic but was impaled and shocked by the glass and circuits inside, he withdrew his now bloody hand and growled, he started yelling at the top of his lungs.

"PLAGG, PLAGG!" The kwami was under the marble structure of the house in a little hideaway where he had been staying for a little over two weeks, he heard Adrien's words of summoning and sighed, Adrien still  donned the Miraculous and Plagg had to follow his orders, he sighed sadly and shook his head, was this how Nooroo felt? Plagg thought to himself as he swished into Adrien's view and crossed his arms.

"What do you need Adrien?" Plagg said coldly, Adrien was running his hand under water to wash the blood off, he watched the blood mix with the water making a brownish red mix swirling down his sinks drain. When he squeezed his hand it hurt like multiple little knives stabbing him, but Adrien ignored the pain, if he didn't ignore the pain the voice would always taunt him.

"Plagg, we're going to transform and I'm going to find Ladybug." Adrien said sternly, a wild look in his eye that made Adrien smile but it filled Plagg with uncertainty. Normally Plagg would be the one to egg Adrien on to do something strange or childish, Adrien was busy bandaging his hand with tape as Plagg voiced his concern.

"Adrien... I don't think you're stable enough to transform right now... Your mental state... It affects the transformation." Plagg was going to say more but Adrien shushed him. There was no resisting the holder, Plagg, Tikki, especially Nooroo knew that. Plagg wanted to voice more concern, he had been Adrien doing weird things recently, pacing the manor, talking to himself. Talking to SOMEONE even though he and Plagg were the only people in the house.

"Plagg, claws out!" Adrien yelled authoritavely, Plagg hurled into the Miraculous and Adrien transformed, something was off, Adrien's normal transformation was a smooth glide across his skin, it was actually fun. This time, the suit dug into him a bit, it chafed a bit at his legs and arms, Adrien tossed this feeling aside as him just not used to being in it in a while. What Adrien didn't acknowledge, was that his pure black suit wasn't black anymore, it was a dark grey, and his staff was pointed in the edges, not quite sharp enough to pierce anything, yet it still looked threatening.

"I'm coming  My Lady." Adrien said, giggling a mad laughter at his own words, he couldn't wait to see his Lady again, that was all he wanted, and he would stop at nothing to make sure he won her love. 

"Here I come." He said giggling, he vaulted out of a window of the manor, going to the last spot he saw his lady.
