Chapter Text
(Narrator's POV)
Lila Rossie is a girl who lies more than she breathes. She is walking down the sidewalk on her way home after school. She was smiling and skipping with joy. The past few months have been quite delightful. She managed to turn Marinette's whole class against her, but that was only for a few months. It didn't take long for Nino to realize she was lying. She wasn't really expecting him to believe her for that long, after all, he and Marinette knew each other as kids, and he once had a crush on the blue-haired girl. Though, it did damage his relationship with Alya. She couldn't seem to understand why her boyfriend was defending a bully. So Lila made up a lie. She told Alya "Hey, didn't Nino used to have a crush on Marinette?" Which Alya agreed. Lila faked a gasp and that got everyone's attention, including Nino, Nathaniel, and Marinette, who was sitting in the back of the class, since the class put her there and Nino and Nathaniel felt bad for making her sit all alone. Alya was concerned and Lila once again lied telling Alya "It's not weird then that he's defending her. He might still have feelings for her. You can't just get rid of feelings that quickly. You told me Marinette tried once...and failed. Right?" That was all Lila needed to turn Alya and the class on Nino.
But her new problem...is Nathaniel. He's a redhead, quiet, and sometimes sticks to himself. When Lila first arrived, she noticed that most of her tricks weren't working. She tried framing Marinette for cheating on tests, so she put the answer sheet in Marinette's purse...but it just disappeared! Then she tried to frame her for stealing her necklace, she made sure to put it in Marinette's locker, only for it to not be in there! It was in her locker instead. Whenever she tried framing Marinette for stealing, it didn't work. But other than that, most of her lies worked. Such as Marinette being jealous of her for being too close to Adrien, even though, Marinette tried to help get Kagami and Adrien together once. A few fake tears and fake bruises worked like a charm. Now if she could just make the blue-haired girl just disappear, she could finally have everything she ever wanted.
She was walking, in her own little world, when something hit her. She screamed in pain as she fell. She groaned as got up. She whined about her hair and outfit getting dirty. She then started to pack her things up, when she noticed something odd. It was an old black book with strange markings and yellowish pages. She grew curious about the book and slowly opened it. Her eyes widened at the Latin language, and it was clear that each page had some sort of spell, curse, and demonic ritual. She grinned, coming up with a great plan to get rid of Marinette for good. She picked up the book, stuffed it into her bag, and took off back home.

the next day, apparently, Marinette was out sick. Lila smirked, seizing this as an opportunity to make up more lies. She started off by telling the whole class about the "mean texts" Marinette was sending her, that Marinette was acting "bizarre" and that she probably wasn't sick at all, and lied to them all. And as expected Alya believed her and jumped to her defense. Nathanial just sat back in his seat, looking at all of them annoyed. He looked over at Adrien, waiting for him to FINALLY defend his supposed "friend" but he never did. That spineless coward, just sat there, letting the class shit talk Marinette. Nino on the other hand, stood up and glared at everyone.
Nino: "I can't believe you guys, just believe her without evidence."
The class looked at him shocked but then looked at him annoyed.
Alya: "Like, you should be talking you cheater!"
Nino: "I never cheated on you, Alya!"
Alya: "Yeah, right! Then why are you defending that bully so much!?"
Nathaniel scoffed and looked at Alya annoyed that she had to ask that question.
Nathaniel: "Maybe because she's not a bully, you guys are just idiots who believe anyone without any proof. Like a Moth attracted towards light."
They looked at Nathanial shocked that he spoke. Lila freaked out, knowing she needed to quickly go with her plan before Nino and Nathanial ruined it. She quickly pulled out the book from her bag, and the moment Nathanial laid eyes on it, his eyes widened in fear, shock, and horror. Everyone else just looked at her confused.
Alya: "What's that Lila?"
Lila: "A book I found in Marinette's locker."
The class looked at her confused as to why she was in Marinette's locker.
Ivan: "Why were you going through her locker?"
Lila opened her mouth to say something, but Alya beat her to it.
Alya: "Obviously because Marinette, once again stole something of hers and she was getting it back!"
Lila faked smiled and nodded her head. She could see Nathanial glaring at her, but she tensed up when it felt different from the other times he glared at her.
Lila: "Yeah. Anyway. I found this book in her locket. It appears to be a spell book. I think she was planning on using it on me."
She faked a cry and everyone comforted her. They all started making a plan to get back at Marinette.
(Time skip)
Marinette was on her way to where Alya told her to go. It's been a few days and she was feeling better now. And lucky enough it was a Saturday, so no school. The class decided to hangout.
Alya: "Girl!"
Marinette turned around to see Alya walking over to her. She appeared to be smiling and waving at her. Marinette smiled and waved back, just happy that her best friend didn't hate her. She thought she did, because of Lila and her lies.
Alya: "So glad you could make it, girl!"
She smiled, and then saw the rest of the class, besides Nino and Nathaniel. They all smiled and waved at her as well. Lila was there as well, which worried Marinette.
Marinette: "Hey. It's nice to see you all!"
Alya smiled and then grabbed MArinette by her arm. She started pulling her away from where they were hosting their party, and instead a scary-looking abandoned house in the middle of the woods. Marinette looked scared and uneasy. She didn't know what was happening.
Marinette: "What are we doing here?"
Everyone just laughed and Marinette looked at them scared and confused. Tikki was peeking from Marinette's purse, she didn't trust anyone here, and that includes Adrien, even though he was the holder of Plagg.
Alya: "We were just hoping you would come inside with us, that's all. We're all going to do a challenge! It was Lila's idea after all."
Marinette didn't like it was Lila's idea, but before she could voice her dislike, Kim picked her up from behind and tossed her over her shoulders. She started to scream in fear and Adrien frowned. He didn't like Kim holding Marinette like that. They all walked inside the abandoned house, all without knowing they were being recorded from beyond the trees.
They soon make it to a room and Kim puts her down. Marinette looked around the room and froze in terror. It looked like a sacrifice. There was a pentagram drawn on the floor in what looked like blood. There were candles on each point of the star. There even were what looked like...human skulls! Again, what the class didn't know, was someone was recording from the outside. Marinette crowared away from her class, looking at them shocked and scared for her life. In a shaky voice, she spoke.
Marinette: "Why?"
Lila stood on the side, smirking, happy that her plan of freaking the fuck out of Marinette was working.
Alya: "Because you became nothing but a bully, Marinette!"
Alix: "Yeah!"
Kim: "We're just giving you what you deserve after you bullied Lila!"
Rose: "Bullies like you deserve to rot in hell!"
Marinette looked at Rose shocked that she said that. Rose used to be a sweet and caring person, but with the influence of Lila, she became someone who judges someone too quickly.
Chloe: "And that's where we are going to send you! You brat!"
Meylen walked over to Lila and gave her the book. Lila happily took the book from her. Kim, Ivan, Alix, and Adrien all grabbed MArinette and forced her into the middle of the pentagram. Marinette pleaded with them to let her go and to stop. But no one listened to her pleas. They used sticks to hold her in her place as the rest read from the book. They all laughed, thinking nothing was gonna happen. The person outside stopped recording and soon left. Just then, the flames on the candles started to flicker until they all blew out. Everyone looked around confused.
Max: "What's going on?"
Just then the one candle in front of Marinette burned and she backed away from it in shock and horror. Suddenly a portal opened up beneath Marinette and she fell through it. Adrien gasped and tried to run to save her, but Lila tripped him, causing him to fall. The portal closed and everyone looked shocked. Lila though, looked happy that she finally got her wish.
