Chapter Text
Big, blue eyes stared into sea-green eyes that stopped her from falling; those eyes stared back, equally wide and awed.
The owner of those big blue eyes was a girl named Marinette Dupain-Cheng, a foreign exchange student who’d been adopted by Sabine Cheng and Thomas Dupain after falling into legal custody of the French government. The owner of those sea-green eyes was a boy named Damian Wayne, the genetically-engineered son of Bruce Wayne, otherwise known as the vigilante Batman, and Talia Al Ghul.
It just so happened that Miss Marinette had been left behind by her class during the class field-trip to Gotham, which she organized for them, why did they leave her? And it just so happened that Mister Damian had been walking towards a cafe with a calm and warm atmosphere that just called to him and smelled like something that screamed “home.”
Neither expected to run into each other.
Neither expected to find themselves lost in the other’s eyes.
And they certainly didn’t expect to find themselves saying to the other, at the same time, “You’re absolutely gorgeous!”
Still, their chance encounter was the turning point for both of them, a turning point where they both would strive to be better and to protect one another.
The Fates sighed softly. The balance to the world would be restored, much to their relief.
It was already painful for them to see the young Fate holding the weight of the entirety of Magic on her shoulders. Ah, well, it wasn’t time for the Kwamis to step in just yet. Maybe when she became the Guardian.
