Tikki's POV:

  I  felt horrible about the whole thing.

  This was my fault.

   I saw Marinette as she laid there dying.

   I was so hopeless.

   I was a bad kwami.

   How could I let my holder get so badly hurt?

  How did I fail to keep her safe?

    I should known there was an akuma with how quickly her folks ran off.

   I  caused her to die.

    I knew I should have retired years ago from hero work.

   Maybe, then the girl would have been attacked.

   Perhaps, she would still be with us.

   I shook my head.

  "Chat, Alya, Nino, I know it is a bad time, but I have something to tell you," I spoke up.

     I had to tell them no matter how much it hurts.

    I knew her friends deserved to know the truth.

      "Marinette was Ladybug!  I  killed her. I am so sorry!" 

       I waited for them to shout at me or threaten to bottle me up.  No one ever did.

      I did not understand it.  I confessed to being the cause behind her demise, and they just stood there in silence.  Perhaps, the shock was too much for them all to handle. 

    I  turned away in shame.

   I flew away before I could hear a response.

    I could not stand to see their looks of anger, disappointment, etc.
