MENTIONED- Alya Salt, Lila Get Exposed, Bad Teacher Caline Bustier, Principal Damocles Salt REDEMPTION- Akuma Class Redemption, Chloe Redemption, Adrien Redemption PAIRINGS- Felinette, ChloeXSabrina, LukaXAdrienXKagami

HERE IS A PROMPT !

What if Lila Rossi decided to lie about Walt Disney infront of the entire class who is a fan of disney movies since they were very little to them they already know who is Walt Disney and his biography as to Lila decided to make a lie about Walt Disney knowing him as her so called relative but it backfired on her? The class doesn't like it when Lila lied about Walt Disney in front of them.

Alya well she doesn't like Disney movies very much not like her siblings do yet agreed with Lila instead planning to set it up to her blog. While her classmates protested but had seen what happen when Marinette outted Lila all of them felt guilty and apologize to Marinette who had moved to Mrs. Mendeleiev class as it was bragged by Chloe yesterday that she is dating Felix Graham de Vanily for about 6 years straight.

While Adrien is currently dating Kagami and Luka just as Kagami and Chloe knock some sense into him about that advice he gave to Marinette was very bad but an approval by his father on his dating. Gabriel has no problem with his son being a polyamory bisexual since he was also a bisexual when he found out through Emelie who seem well amused by it.

Now its up to the class to get their redemption by getting Lila Rossi out of their classroom along with Miss Bustier when they had witness it as well to be clear those who were bullied by Chloe were told by the same advice that Miss Busiter gave to Marinette they were not very happy so they told their parents about her then Damocles on weekends. Those advices were horrible to them they wanted to outted her the day she became their teacher since day one but they didn't have evidences to get her fired but now its out for blood to them towards Bustier, Damocles, Lila, and sadly Alya.

As to Nino told Rose about Alya abusing him during his relationship with her and Rose does not seem very happy about it either after witnessing a few things that Alya did to Nino in school as well but lucky for her... she had told Juleka to catch them on her phone while taking photos hopefully it can help Nino along with his parents to get a restraining order to Alya.

While Juleka and Rose deal with Alya abusing Nino the other class decided to deal with Lila, Bustier, and Damocles. Max had an idea of hacking the principal's computer to see what he has done and also not upgrading the school system that Kim mention this morning with him while walking to school.

The rest is up to you to finished!

[sturchling]

I have a request. How about Lila’s mom comes to school because Lila forgot something. And she comes to class only to see them screaming at marinette to stop being “jealous” and stop “bullying” because of another lie Lila told. Lila’s mom also sees mrs. Bustier not doing anything to stop it. So she steps in and Lila pales at the sight of her mom. Then she sets things straight and goes off on Lila for lying again. In the end Lila and the class get punished. And lila gets held back a year.

Mrs. Rossi was already in an annoyed mood. She had already been running late this morning, and needed to get to work. But right as she went to leave, she saw that Lila had left her homework binder on the counter.

She was irritated with her daughter for being so irresponsible. Part of her considered just leaving it there and letting Lila face the consequences. She left it, she can take the bad grade. But then Mrs Rossi remembered that this assignment was worth a lot and if Lila got a bad grade, it would really affect her overall grade.

Mrs Rossi decided to just take it to the school, and she would deal with her daughter later. Little did Mrs Rossi know, Lila would wish her mother had left it alone. She had left the binder on purpose. Lila had planned to blame Marinette for the missing assignment, saying that the girl had wanted Lila to fail so she stole the assignment from her on the way to school.

Mrs Rossi strode into the school and up the stairs to her daughters class, texting on her phone to try and explain to her boss why she is late. Her focus was glued to her phone, that is until she heard the yelling. When she looked up, Mrs Rossi saw the entirety of her daughter’s class, standing and yelling at one girl in the back of the class. They were yelling at her for “bullying Lila” and “stealing her homework” so this girl would have a better than Lila.

But none of this made sense. Lila’s homework wasn’t stolen, Mrs Rossi had it in her hand. Why did the class think this girl stole it? And why wasn’t her daughter correcting them? Surely she knew about her homework, so this girl couldn’t have stolen it. Mrs Rossi felt her stomach twist. She had seen her daughter finally, and she was smiling maliciously.

Then Mrs Rossi understood. Her daughter was lying again. She had done this at every school in Italy. She always lied to everyone, about everything. Fake conditions, fake achievements, anything she could think of. And she had also previously used those lies to target specific students and make them miserable. She had been expelled from several schools for this behavior, but Lila had seemed better since moving to Paris. Reticently, Mrs Rossi realized that Lila had seemed better, because Mrs Rossi had been willfully ignoring it. Now the lack of the communication from the school, and several “school closures” seemed way more troubling.

She glanced at the teacher, Bustier, but Bustier wasn’t doing anything. She was just watching the chaos, like it was some twisted show. Mrs Rossi couldn’t believe what she was seeing. Well, if she wasn’t going to stop this, Mrs Rossi absolutely would. Her daughter wasn’t going to ruin another girl’s life.

Mrs Rossi stormed into the classroom, yelling, “LILA ROSSI”. The entire class whipped around at the sudden intrusion and stared at her. Most looked confused, but Lila didn’t. She looked terrified, and paled almost instantly upon seeing her mother.

“Mom… what are you doing here?” Lila glanced around the room, completely panicked. Especially when she spotted a certain binder in her mother’s arms.

“It doesn’t matter why I’m here. What matters is you are lying again! You told your class that this girl stole your homework? You know good and well that you left it at the house. It’s right here! I thought you had gotten over this lying phase of yours, but clearly not!�� Mrs Rossi threw down the binder on the sad excuse of a teacher’s desk, angry beyond measure.

Lila was stuttering, trying to think of someway out of this, as she felt the stares of her class on her. This was very bad, Lila had intended for this lie to fully turn the class against Marinette. She hadn’t expected her mother to see the binder and bring it to the school. “Mom it’s not what you think, Marinette, she… she threatened me. Told me not to bring my homework or I’d be sorr-”

Lila couldn’t even finish her lie, her mother’s anger growing with every word until she exploded. “ENOUGH! You did this in every school you went to in Italy, and I thought I got the lesson through your head this time! Clearly not! I didn’t warn this school because you seemed to understand it this time, I guess that was my own naivety. Get up, you are coming with me to the principals office! I’m willing to bet he has some interesting stories to tell me of what you’ve been up to! I wonder if you have that lying disease again, or the one about saving some random celebrity pet. It’s the same nonsense every time and I’m sick of it!”

Lila tried to stammer out protests, she really did not want her mom to talk to Damocles. But deep down, she knew it was pointless, her mom was furious and wouldn’t take no for an answer. She felt the betrayed looks from the class on her back, as they realized Marinette had been telling the truth. Lila was a habitual liar, and her own mother was confirming it right in front of them, even referencing specific stories Lila had told them.

Lila reluctantly left the classroom with her mother, dreading this conversation and the after effects to come.

And man the after effects were more brutal than Lila expected. She wasn’t expelled exactly, but she almost wishes she was. But her mother had advocated against expulsion, but not for the sake of her daughter. She did it so her daughter couldn’t pull this again at another school.

Instead, Lila was suspended for the rest of the year and as a result would be held back a year and need to repeat it. When she was allowed back, she would be closely monitored by teachers, to make sure she couldn’t get away with anything or trying to bully any students. And a note was placed in her permanent record, so that if she ever did have to transfer for some reason, her next school would be warned.

As for the rest of the class and Bustier, they didn’t escape unscathed either. Most of the class was suspended as well, just for shorter periods of time. The school was a bit more lenient with them, since their actions were based on manipulation and lies, so they wouldn’t be suspended long enough that they would need to repeat the year, but they would be suspended for a few weeks and when they got back, they would have detention for the remainder of the year.

Finally, Bustier was also given an unpaid suspension. To come back to work, she had to complete several hours of retraining on class management, anti bullying tactics, and a wide range of other subjects. Her class got a long term sub in the meantime.

Mrs Rossi may have been annoyed about bringing that binder, but she is glad she did. It opened her eyes to her daughters continuing lies. She was able to put a stop to it this time, and she would make sure her daughter would never be able to pull this nonsense again.

Reality

As Nino lays out his plan for targeting Gabriel, Alya points out one thing. “Sure I know Ladybug can fix the mess an akuma causes. But Gabriel will still be mad. He already doesn’t like you, Nino. Don’t push it. For all we know, Gabriel might threaten to transfer Adrien to a different school. Remember, he totally lost it when Adrien lost his book?”

Nino: oh…right. I didn’t think of that. Then, who do we target?

Marinette grins sneakily. “I know someone who can get upset very easily.”

Adrien: really, who?

Marinette: i don’t want to spoil the surprise.

Later, as the parent-teacher meeting commenced, Marinette bursts in, “Oh, I’m so sorry to barge in like this. But I forgot I needed Mrs Rossi’s signature for Lila’s trip to Achu.”

Caline: Marinette, can’t this wait?

Mrs Rossi: what trip to Achu?

Caline and Marinette look at her. “You know, the trip she’s taking to join Prince Ali in teaching children for free. It’s such a shame that she won’t be able to attend the school’s weeklong camping trip but it’s for a good cause.

Mrs Rossi stands up. “My daughter is doing what?”

Caline: why are you so surprised, Mrs Rossi? Lila went to Achu for months less than a week after she joined Dupont.

Mrs Rossi: she told me the school was shut down from akuma attacks!

Marinette pretended to look faint. “Oh no, was it because of her special lying disease?”

Mr Cesaire looked skeptical. “A lying disease…? Do you mean compulsive lying?”

Gabriel almost regretted not being able to akumatize Mrs Rossi, if only to make up for losing Lila Rossi as a spy since clearly Alliance can no longer use her. Oh well, there’s always the fallout when her sheep find out.

Alya and Nino were recording this with open mouths. Adrien wasn’t so bothered by this after seeing more of Lila’s hateful personality.

Needless to say, the parent-teacher conference was delayed as Sabine then angrily wanted justice for her daughter if she was indeed framed by a liar. Gabriel had to admit the teaching faculty here was lousy to fall for Lila’s reception, but that’s what makes this place so prime for his akumas! Why did he send Adrien here again? Oh right, it’s the most prestigious school and he’ll never hear the end of it from Andre because Chloe would never accept his perfect son being in another school away from her.

Later, after Marinette received an apology from Mrs Rossi, she agreed to bring Lila up. Alya and Nino looked apologetic. “We’re so sorry we didn’t believe you.”

Marinette looked behind her. “It’s ok. Keep recording. If Mrs Rossi isn’t angry enough to attract an akuma, her daughter will be. Nothing akumatizes Lila like being caught.”

Lila was immediately suspicious when Marinette of all people came to get her, however it was subdued by Marinette’s poorly hidden dislike and the fact that it was Gabriel who asked her to come.

Certain that Mr Agreste wanted her help against a stupid boy’s resistance team, she agreed.

Boy was Lila surprised to see Sabine and her mother standing in front of the classroom instead of Mr Agreste, who looked disappointed in her.

Uh oh. Now Lila could see Marinette’s triumphant face and could see what had happened. Her one consolation was that the team’s plan to anger a parent into akumatization had failed. Though she was also irked she couldn’t get akumatized and make that loser suffer for exposing her like this. This is worse than Ladybug’s exposing her in front of Adrien!

As Lila was dragged by her mother to the principal’s office, Caline tried to resume the parent-teacher conference though it was clear all now felt disheartened by her incompetence.

The resistance was confused. Angry Rossis and disappointed parents were around. Where was the akuma?

Eventually they had to give up. What a waste of free period.

Not entirely a waste though since Lila was now exposed. Alya sent the recording to the whole class as the parents left.

Outraged gasps were heard everywhere.

Nino: why didn’t you wait till class was about to start? Then we could prepare to record the akumatization.

Adrien: if Monarch didn’t come out for Mrs Rossi and Lila, I doubt he’ll come for-

Reverser promptly swooped by, ready to turn Lila nice and honest.

Adrien: never mind.

Marc was deakumatized and the class apologized to Marinette for not believing her.

Lila returned to class, sulky in her forced apology, not really bothered by their angry reactions now that she was expelled. Only Marinette’s smug attitude infuriated her. Having been forced honest by Reverser, she had confessed to having duped two other women into being her mothers and had initially planned on running away to join one of them. Her mother now has their numbers. It was a nightmare.

Alya: who else can we akumatize for the greater good? Mayor Bourgeois?

Marinette: I don’t think our plan works if we our expected target isn’t even akumatized. We’ll have to think of something else.

Monarch is disappointed he won’t get to akumatize the akuma class again for a while. Ah well, it can be a favor to Adrien.

RING THE ALARM

Miraculous Ladybug: season 4 Alya sugar fic (based on the Alya exposes Lila's secrets prompt that I made)

Alya pov

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

"... Anansi has been rigging her wrestling matches! It's the only reason why she's made it as far as she has." was the only thing Alya needed to hear to send off alarm bells throughout her whole body. Why would Lila say something that wasn't true? Alya tried to correct her friend, thinking it had to be some type of mistake. At first, Lila was surpised her latest gossip target had a sister, but held fast to the truthfulness of her 'sources'. Alya tried to correct her again, and Lila got defensive over her friend 'attacking' her. Alya tried to fact check Lila one last time, then the green eyed monster finnally retaliated. All she had to claim was Alya harassing her and Kim, Nino, and Ms. Bustier swiftly came to her defence.

Within the blink of an eye, Alya landed in detention. Alone in her punishment, but togather with Marinette who had been a recent victim of the lying new girl. As her real friend comforted her, Alya finnaly realized her real mistake... how could Lila be friends with Maribug if she met her the same time as me? Alya finnaly gleaned the truth that Marinette had been warnning her for so long, and despite Marinette's affirmations of her being guiltless, Alya couldn't help but feel that this whole mess was her fault. What kind of journalist am I to be fooled by a school girl...

That's when a Light bulb appeared above her head. Alya is exactly the kind of journalist to solve this mess, and she will if it's the last thing she does. As soon as she got home, Alya began scowering the internet for every and any truth of Lila's claims. As she took more and more notes, she began to learn Lila's real specialty: half truths. All the photos she wowed the class of her meeting with Jagged Stone and traveling the world were real, but the "special connections" she claimed to have were all as fake as her hair. That was the real reason why Lila asked everyone to keep some of the things she said between classmates, it stopped anyone from reaching the truth. As Alya started getting ready for bed, Trixx whispered a devious plan into her ear. Normally, Alya would never agree to using the miraculous to spread a falsehood, but this mirage might be just what she needs to reveal the truth...

The next day at school was much the same; Ms. Bustier was forcing the class to write an eassy analyzing the theme of love in the popular children's book series, Hubert Porter, written by JC Bowling. Because of some of the research Alya did last night, she knew that Bustier and Bowling were the same person. She gussed that it isn't a crime to teach a class based on a book you wrote, but it was starting to get suspicious when Bustier did it three times in a row and ended each class by giving extra credit to the students who donated to the charity of her choice, a conservative group located in Florida of U.S.A.

"... and just the other day, Jagged Stone asked me to come with him on his latest tour! He got so sad when I had to tell him no!" Lila lied. Alya was almost impressed with how good the Italian was at doing it; Jagged went on tour just three days ago, but Alya was sure that he never asked Lila to come with him. Now's the time, Alya thought to herself. She go out of her seat and confronted Lila.

"Do you have any proof that Jagged Stone asked you to come with him on his tour" Alya flatly asked. Marinette got up to reel her back, but Alya gave her a look that said she has everything under control. Of course, Lila pulled her usual: she claimed that Alya was bullying her and that she just wanted to be friends. Kim jumped to her defence, as Lila filled the void that Chloe left when she went on extended vacation with her grandmother. That void being "evil chick that he can make googoo eyes at". Nino, who had started to hang out with Lila more then he was around Alya by the day, also jumped to the Italian's defense. He lectured Alya on all the ways he was "disappointed in her" and the like. Just as Ms. Bustier was about to send Alya to detention, she pulled out her trump card. "Lila's lying, and she admitted to it here!" Alta pulled out a voice recorder and pressed play. "If course I'm lying, and you can't do anything about it!" Lila's voice vindictively said.

And just like that, the class erupted into chaos. Nino got re-akumatized into Rocketear and targeted Lila for "breaking my heart". When it was over, the class all sang their swan songs to Marinette and Alya for believing some new girl over them. Except Nino, who seemed to think he was entitled to his girlfriend's forgiveness. Yeah no, their relationship is on hold and Alya is going to be too busy to come to the phone rifht now, but Nino was welcomed to leave a message. And he did. Like a lot. Alya regretted even making that suggestion. As usual, Ms. Bustier was the last person to get the hint and tried to punish Alya for (???) but this time Marinette came prepared. She discovered their lovesick teacher had fled Britain from a little too many taxes, and that was all that was needed to get her fired. After Alya learned that her choice of charity was a Trans Exclusionary Radical Feminist organization, she considered it good riddance.

And as for Lila, she quitely disappeared like she usually did with no sign of coming back. Good, Alya thought to herself, no one messes with my friends and gets away with it. To make sure no one forgot, Alya posted her experience onto the Ladyblog, where the truth would be known for years to come.

I challenged myself to use less dialogue in this fic and I hope you enjoy it!

Paris Reacts to Watch Us Work

Akuma Class

Another weekend, another week without any way to watch a new episode of Total Drama.

They all were at the park, sitting there, bored out of their minds. That was until they heard a crash far away behind them. They turned to see an akuma attack from Copycat happening.

Even though Alya was excited and wanted to get great material for her blog and get Ladybug's trust to have her endorse the blog again. But when she realized and remembered that her phone was still confiscated by her parents, her excitement and happiness both went down the drain.

That was until a lava red portal appeared, and there came out Ladybug, and now seeing her new look, it looked like she combined two miraculous, one which was obviously the Ladybug earrings and the black cat ring. And along with Ladybug, was an unfamiliar girl that is dressed in a very odd outfit. They then hear the unfamiliar girl talk aloud in a deep-strong British accent. "Oy! Are you talking about us?" "And who are you?" "Your worst bloody nightmare."

The girl then throws something at Copycat that wraps around the Copycat's waist and holds him tightly. "GET OVER HERE!" the girl yelled, pulling Copycat over to her. She then aimed her hands at Copycat, which froze him into ice. The class looked shocked, surprised, and amazed at the scene they were watching.

However, the whole class was not as shocked as Adrien was when he saw Ladybug using both hers and his miraculous at the same time. And if that wasn't shocking enough, she has a new, different heroine fighting along with her and not having him have his miraculous back and save the day with her and not with some stranger.

After returning everything to normal and Theo returns to a normal Parisian citizen, Ladybug, and the unfamiliar girl does a fist pound, saying something that the class couldn't hear. They tried to head over to Ladybug, but a lot of people beat them to the punch.

"Ladybug! Who is this with you?" "All you mates, can call me Anarchia." The unknown girl, Anarchia, said, introducing herself. "How did you meet Anarchia?" "She was there for me when I was on patrol." "An armed picket-pocketer was spotted, and I quickly caught 'im 'round the same time she showed up." "She was very useful for a lot of other things aside from akuma attacks." Adrien couldn't believe that Ladybug trusted a heroine who might not be from Paris without even telling him and ever getting his consent first. "Is it true that you stopped endorsing the Ladyblog?" "Sadly, yes. Only because of various reasons. One of them is one person claiming that she is my 'best friend', which is not true because I never have any time hanging out with civilians." Alya's eyes widened after hearing that. After hearing those words come out of Ladybug's mouth, it felt like her whole world started to fall apart. However, Alya was not as shocked as Adrien was when Ladybug exposed Lila's lies. 'I thought she was going to let that go. Why can't people see that it doesn't hurt anyone?" He thought. That was until they heard Anarchia talk, "Some cottonheads never understand what the real world works and never fact checks like they are supposed to." hearing that felt like a stab to the gut to both Adrien and Alya. "Not to mention, some bloody cottonheads always lose their minds over what wanker tells them what they want to hear. That, and they never got to wake up and smell the real scent of tea to face reality." A couple of eyes widened in shock hearing that. However, before they can say anything, Anarchia continued, "However, speaking of facing reality, I do recommend this brilliant site and app I have endorsed back in London. It is called Face Reality. Because I have heard they are having some of their best reporters start here in about the next week." Alya's eyes widened upon hearing that. Face Reality was one of the world-known news blog-media industries for children, teens, and young adults. Not to mention her competition for the title of Best Blog-Media in the news world. "Are you kidding me?!" she gawked in disbelief. They all tried to get to Ladybug to see what she was doing with a different heroine. But as soon as they got to the two, the sun was already setting, and Ladybug's earrings started beeping. "Well, I say it is time for us to leave. Good day." Anarchia said, grabbing some keys, pressing one button that summons a black motorcycle, automatically driving to her, and stopping and staying by her side. As Anarchia gets on, she drives off along with Ladybug, as she uses her yo-yo, saying a quick 'Bug out', and the two leave. "Ladybug, wait!"

Unfortunately, it was too late, and the two were gone.

When Monday came around once again, they all heard the rest of the students chattering about the new episode of Total Drama.

"I'm so happy for Marinette!"

"I know, she's now one of them. That's amazing!"

"Her mom and dad must be very proud of her right now."

"Yeah, and her diary box was such a blessing in disguise."

"Yeah, and thank goodness too. Who knows what would've happened if it didn't trap Heather's hand."

"And Harold's music playing was awesome. Sure beats you know who's."

"And the MetaBetas performing there? They were amazing."

"Yeah, especially their hoodies. They look so cool!"

"More like epic if you ask me."

"You should've seen Duncan's face when he saw Marinette onstage."

"Yeah, the guy looked like one of those guys who has his eyes on the girl of his dreams."

"Not to mention the drooling he was doing."

"Honestly, I think Trent would be a perfect match for her."

"Yeah, he snagged an extra muffin for her."

"And he sang a song all about her. And it was actually for her too! So romantic!"

The class groaned and whined about how it was unfair that they got to watch the new episode and they couldn't. Even Adrien thinks it is unfair. Not to mention that Ladybug has his miraculous and has a new partner siding with her. And if that wasn't bad enough, Ladybug exposed Lila in the worst possible way. He knows that when the time comes, he will have his miraculous back and try to make Ladybug see the light and ditch that wannabe partner, Anarchia.

Celebrities + Friends and Family

It was another special weekend for all of the celebrities, friends, and families in Paris, France.

They're all getting together at the hotel, getting ready to watch the new episode of Total Drama. As they were all getting together, they were not even unaware of a familiar blonde ponytail girl getting ready to watch the new episode herself.

Two weeks ago, she noticed a lot of people coming to the hotel very often. At first, both she and her father thought that the people needed a place to stay, but when Chloe started to hear that Marinette was sent to a camp in Muskoka against her will by their classmates, that was where she drew the line. She even gives Adrien a friendship suspension until he learns to grow up and face the real world after demanding the whole truth from him, which causes him to fess up everything to her and Sabrina. Sabrina couldn't even believe it herself after hearing the whole truth from Adrien. And since Chloe was still mad at Adrien for letting Lila get off scot-free without any consequences, she decided to give Sabrina a break from everything and deal with things her way. Sabrina was surprised since this was the first time she saw this new side of Chloe, but Sabrina knew that it was only because of Lila's tactics she took it. However, Sabrina was still surprised about this new side of Chloe. Chloe told her father everything, and he couldn't believe it himself. As a result, he sent out the board of governors and education to investigate College Francois Dupont and sent the students of the school to another school that has the highest security and staff members that will have students full-on under surveillance until then. The mayor and Chloe herself were surprised to know that they were not the only ones who had called the board since a bunch of other concerned students and families were aware of it all as well. And since Sabrina once told the mayor about most of their classmates talking down about some people and some things both in person and online via social media, he not only sent temporary transfer notices to the families, he also sent another notice to all the families about checking on their kids and their electronic devices to see if they're doing anything bad without any of them knowing. 'I can't believe I'm going to say this, but Dupain-Cheng definitely deserves better than all of this. Besides, nobody messes with Dupain-Cheng's life but me! What those losers did was ridiculous. Utterly ridiculous!' she thought to herself with a huff while changing channels to the one that shows Total Drama.

Meanwhile, with everyone else, as they are getting ready to watch the new episode, Luka is talking to Zoe, Mirelle, Aurore, Kagami, Marc, Soqueline, Jessica, Aeon, and Fei about their call with Marinette and her friends in Muskoka. They all talked about how amazing Marinette was doing there and how the campers there were really good friends for her. All except Heather since they now know her true colors. However, they were glad that Lucy was officially the one to put Heather in her place, even if it was with her anger getting the best of her. After their talk, the show finally starts.

"Last time on Total Drama Island, the Killer Bass finally dodged their pathetic losing streak against the Screaming Gophers. There were bruises, tears, risky moves, and dangerous alliances. And in the end, it was Noah, the Know-it-All, who didn't see it coming." "Well, I can understand that he's not a sports person, but he could've shown some spirit or something at least." one of the fame-rising football (soccer) players said, shrugging their shoulders. "Well, everyone has their own opinion and choice of things." another one said. "This week, another challenge will send one more camper on a cruise to Loserville, population...four. Who will sink and who will stay afloat? Find out right now on Total Drama Island."

After watching its usual theme, they watched as they now see Lucy and Marinette on the steps of the Killer Bass cabin, reading, scribbling away on a sketchpad, and listening to music. "There she is! There's my favorite little lady!" Jagged cheered. They then hear someone speak on the radio. "Alright! That was Start Again by Alayah. This next one was from 1995. A love song for the late lucky girl and New Rustale's beloved sweetheart, Luci Grassette. This is Our Perfect Love by Perfection Division in 198.5 EPIC!" "Oh! I love that song!" "I hear it's good." "I haven't heard that in a long time." "Man, I miss hearing Perfection Division." a lot of the celebrities, parents, grandparents, and other adults explained, remembering the song and band. Hearing all of that from the adults got all of the children and teenagers now intrigued about the song and band. They then quiet down as the song starts on the show.

This one's for you, Miss Grassette!

Our love for you is like the most perfect,

Your face reminds us of your gorgeous self,

Together, we are like Vicki and J.D.

Oh darling Luci,

How can we look at another when our perfect love is so strong?

We love you Miss Grassette!

"Man, it feels good to hear Perfection Division, their singing, and Our Perfect Love again." "I know, right? It's been years since I heard their songs." "Years? For me, it feels like centuries." "Luci was so lucky to have a song about her." "She was." "That was pretty catchy." "It was, wasn't it?" "I can see why our families love it." "Yeah." Socqueline smiles as they all complimented about the song and band she and her family listened to back at the family store.

"Alright! That was Perfection Division! Can you feel the love? Because I certainly can."

"Yeah, that was a great song," Marinette commented. "Yeah. That Luci girl must've been so lucky to be featured in a song like that." "Yeah...she was." all of the teenagers and children in the room then turn to notice their families and other adults' faces looking down and sad. Some with sad smiles and some with a single tear or two falling from their face and onto the floor. Before any of them ask what happened to Luci Grassette, they hear the guy on the radio talking still. However, the guy talked in a heartbroken, melancholy, and grieving tone. "You know, it's hard to believe that it's been twenty-something years since we lost all the five members of Perfection Division in a horrific hit and run." The teenagers and the children were shocked to hear that. "That's awful." one of the girls said, putting her hand to her heart in a heartbreaking way. "It was," Nadja said mournfully, holding her daughter Manon tightly. Manon felt sorry for the people losing a great boy band and a girl who was a respected member of the community and loved by all, even people from all over the world, along with her (Luci Grassette) older brother. After a moment of silence for the late girl and the late boy band, they all hear Chris McLean talking on the loudspeakers. "All right, campers, enough beauty sleep. Time to show us what you're made of." "Welp, time to get going, Nettie," Lucy said, getting up and closing her book with a 50s diner-themed bookmark in the pages she was in. Marinette nods and gets up from her spot as well. They all then watch as the scene changes from the girls getting up from the steps of the Killer Bass cabin to a stage. "Are we gonna see a musical? I love musicals. Especially, the ones with singing and dancing." Lindsay said, feeling excited. "Um, that's exactly what musicals are, Lindsay." "Marinette, saved you a seat." Trent said, making Marinette and Lucy walk to him and Gwen. "Oh, thank you, Trent," Marinette said happily. Marinette sat down next to him while Lucy sat down next to Gwen, and the two girls started having a conversation about their favorite horror films. The four of them were not even aware of Cody trying to impress the girls but ended up falling on his seat, yet still trying to look cool.

Chris then got everyone's attention and talked to them: "Welcome to our brand-new, deluxe, state-of-the-art outdoor amphitheater. Okay, this week's challenge is a summer camp favorite: a talent contest." "Yes! Awesome," said Owen. They all then see Lucy's eyes widen in surprise. They all looked confused about why she looked surprised until they then watched her confessional. "Well, that was unexpected. I haven't performed in a while since the last tour incident when the MetaBetas and I were performing in a small town. We were finished with our performance and when my friends and I were ready to head into the bus, some people were talking while we were walking. They were talking about, I don't know what, but frankly, I don't even want to know. At least, and as long as it doesn't involve me in any more dramatic situations than it did back in freshman year. But anyway, it sure has been a while performing. I honestly can't remember the last time I performed, really." "Huh, that is weird." "Yeah, I wonder what those people were talking about." "I guess we'll never know." "Yeah, but I do know that it's true that it sure is a while since Lucy and the other MetaBetas performed." "That's right. I think the last concert the girls did was last summer, I believe." Penny said, trying to remember when the last time the MetaBetas performed. After that, they continued watching the show.

"Each team has eight hours to pick their three most talented campers. These three will represent them in the show tonight. Sing, dance, juggle. Anything goes as long as it's legal." Chris explain, signing a 'Got my eyes on you' to Duncan, causing him to snap his fingers with a frown. "I wonder what Duncan was thinking about doing?" "I don't know. I just hope it's nothing bad." "Hope not." Chris continued, "You will be judged by our resident talent scout, former D.J., V.J., and rap legend, grand...Master Chef who will show his approval via the Chef-o-Meter. The team that loses will send one camper home tonight. Good luck." with that, Chris headed off the stage.

After that, they watched as Heather blew a whistle. "Okay, I'm the team captain, so here's how it's going to work," she said until Gwen cut her off. "Wait, who said you were team captain?" "She did. Just now," said Lindsay. "Lindsay, Beth, and I took a vote, and I won." "Threatening them to vote for you isn't exactly democratic." "I'm with the bambina on that," Lucy said, agreeing with Gwen. "You said it, girls." one of the celebrity girls said, crossing her arms. That was until they saw Trent walk over to Marinette, holding a muffin in his hand. "Hey, snagged you an extra muffin." "Oh, thank you," Marinette said. They all smile at that scene until Beth then walks over to them, talking to Marinette and Lucy. "Hey, Lucy, Marinette. Chris was hoping to talk to you about something. He's saying that there's an urgent call from someone." "Oh, jeez. It better not be about Slick and Brutus trying to get all the action figures in stores to find another legendary collectible again. I swear those two just won't knock it off." Lucy said, unamused, as she and Marinette headed over to the location Beth gave them. After they leave, Heather starts talking to Trent. "Trent, you're cool with me leading this project, aren't you?" "Right on. Go for it." Trent said with sarcasm. "Good. Beth, Lindsay, and I will be the judges."

After watching some of them do their special talents, the celebrities, families, and Marinette's friends suddenly heard a crash coming from outside; they all looked to see that it was another Akuma attack happening from none other than Copycat. Again. As they all watch as the akumatized person attacks the city, demanding Ladybug and Chat Noir's arrival and surrender, they notice a lava-red portal appearing. There, they see Ladybug come out of it. They looked surprised to see her come out of a portal that they had never seen before. Not to mention that she has a different look because, from the looks of it, they see that she is using both her miraculous and the black cat miraculous.

They understand that she's using both of them only because she announced once that Chat Noir is permanently retired due to various personal reasons. Of course, a lot of people respect that since someone shared video proof of Chat Noir being incompetent and not saving others in the past akuma attacks, such as the Syren debacle, the second Gigantitan incident where Gigantitan threw Ladybug's Lucky Charm at a room in the Dupain-Cheng bakery, which turned out to be Marinette's bedroom, and the last one where the akumatized person shot some bullets that stopped people and make them freeze like statues, unlike him, Ladybug saved some from getting shot and getting them into safety while he just did nothing but pout and sulk about Ladybug not accepting his love. Looking back, some felt disgusted about themselves for thinking that the two were a cute couple and they were an item. After all of that, Ladybug got the cat miraculous back from Chat Noir and has used it along with her miraculous ever since.

However, the only thing they don't understand is how the portal appeared and why Ladybug was using it. That was until they saw an unfamiliar girl walking out of the portal after Ladybug.

"Who is that?"

"I have never seen this one before?"

"Is she a new partner of Ladybug's?"

"I don't think she has a miraculous on her."

They then quiet down their chatter when they hear the new girl calling out aloud in a deep-toned, strong-British accent. "Oy! Are you talking about us?" "And who are you?" "Your worst bloody nightmare."

The girl then throws something at Copycat that wraps around Copycat's waist and holds him tightly. "GET OVER HERE!" the girl yelled, pulling the Copycat over to her. She then aims her hands at Copycat, which froze him into ice.

Everyone looked shocked, surprised, and amazed at what they were seeing with their very eyes. "Whoa! Did you see that?!" "She stopped the akumatized villain easily and faster than ever!" "That's a new record right there!"

After Ladybug turned everything back to normal, all of the celebrity newscasts, media, and press quickly ran out of the hotel for a quick interview of Ladybug and her new partner. When they got to her, they asked the two a lot of questions. "Ladybug! Who is this with you?" "All you mates, can call me Anarchia." The unknown girl, Anarchia, said, introducing herself to them all. "How did you meet Anarchia?" "She was there for me when I was on patrol." "An armed picket-pocketer was spotted, and I quickly caught 'im 'round the same time she showed up."

"She was very useful for a lot of other things aside from Akuma attacks." they were all very impressed with this new heroine, even when she seemed to be from another country, and whether it was an Akuma attack or not, Anarchia was very useful to stop it. "Is it true that you stopped endorsing the Ladyblog?" "Sadly, yes. Only because of various reasons. One of them is one person claiming that she is my 'best friend', which is not true because I never have any time hanging out with civilians." hearing that was very understandable. Knowing that Ladybug would never have time for anything else. Mr. Ramier and others who were having their troubles, maybe, but a civilian saying that they are best friends, which is not even true, and possibly putting a target on themselves without even knowing, that was another story that was a whole other bad level. Anarchia then tsks, saying, "Some cottonheads never understand what the real world works and never fact checks like they are supposed to." 'Ain't that the truth.' one of the news interns thought. "Not to mention, some bloody cottonheads always lose their minds over what wanker tells them what they want to hear. That, and they never got to wake up and smell the real scent of tea to face reality." 'You said it, Anarchia.' another one thought to himself. 'Tell it, girl.' the third one thought to herself. "However, speaking of facing reality, I do recommend this brilliant site and app I have endorsed back in London. It is called Face Reality. Because I have heard they are having some of their best reporters start here in about the next week." they were all intrigued with the recommendation Anarchia told them. They continued with the questioning with Ladybug and Anarchia until sunset, and Ladybug's earrings started beeping. "Well, I say it is time for us to leave. Good day." Anarchia said, grabbing some keys, pressing one button that summons a black motorcycle, automatically driving to her, and stopping and staying by her side. As Anarchia gets on, she drives off along with Ladybug, as she uses her yo-yo, saying a quick 'Bug out', and the two leave. The newscasts, media, and press also left, happy that they had an interview with Ladybug and her new partner Anarchia, not even aware of some people running and stopping behind them.

As they all head back into the room, satisfied with their interview with the two heroines, the show was still on. However, they missed almost half of the show. "What did we miss?" one of the intern reporters asked. "Not much, really. Although I think the Killer Bass are going to lose this one for sure." one of the wunderkind rappers said, crossing their arms. They then see that Trent is next. "This one goes out to someone special here at camp. Last name initials, D and C." everyone's eyes widened in surprise hearing that. Even though they can tell that most of the campers on the show are more focused on winning the challenge, the celebrities, families, and Marinette's friends know who Trent is talking about. Luka and Kagami could tell that Gwen knew about it as well after seeing her smile proudly at him while crossing her arms. After hearing the song, they were all amazed. They were so amazed that they even applauded Trent along with the other campers. They all then decided to take a quick snack break and continue watching the show later. As they snack down, they talk about Trent's song for Marinette.

"That song was amazing."

"Yeah, Trent did wonderful there."

"That was so sweet of him singing a song for Marinette."

"Marinette must be really lucky by now."

"Yeah, and I wonder what's taking her and Lucy so long though."

"I don't know. They're sure taking a while with that phone call."

"Maybe it is about those two Slick and Brutus guys and the action figures."

"Oh boy. I can't imagine what that phone call is like right about now."

"It's probably for the best we don't wanna know."

"Agreed."

After their opinion and the snack break, they continued watching the show.

"Welcome back! Okay, so in a strange turn of events, Bridgette's chunk-blowing test registered two thumbs up by Grandmaster Chef." "Bridgette's what blowing?" "I think it's best to leave that unquestionable." "But it's not enough to pull ahead of the Screaming Gophers who hold the lead with Trent's love song. So without further delay, here she is for the leaders...Heather." when Heather appears, she explains that she's going to read something. And then, reveals a box that is holding a book. Tom and Sabine's eyes widened when they realized what that book really was... "THAT'S MARINETTE'S DIARY!" they all gasped in shock and fear, worried that Heather might read something humiliating from Marinette's diary. However, as Heather places her hand on the diary, the box quickly closed in a milisecond, trapping her hand inside along with the said diary. And when it did, Heather started screaming. Even though they should wince from Heather's hand getting stuck, Gwen, the celebrities, families, and Marinette's friends all sigh in relief, knowing that Marinette's secrets are safe from Heather's scheming grasp. They all then watch Marinette's and Lucy's confessionals.

"Probably should've warned the girls that I have a box for my diary. But in this case, I'm glad I brought the box with me." "Glad you did, Marinette," Socqueline said, with Luka, Fei, Zoe, Kagami, and Tomoe nodding in agreement. "I guess one of them must've told her what happened while she and Lucy were having that phone call." one of the gaming celebrities guessed. "See, that's exactly why I don't bring a diary around me anymore. What Heather did, that's the reason." "I can't imagine what happened."

"Alright, it's down to the final act of the night," Chris announced. "Can Geoff and his rad stunts turn it around?...I seriously doubt it. Let's find out." "Why would he think that?" Just then, they see Geoff jump and break his skateboard. "Oh, that's why." "Now what? We have to send someone out there, or we're going to lose this." Bridgette said. They then watch as Marinette walks in. "There she is!" "Boy, that must've been a really long phone call." "Hey, guys." "Marinette! Thank goodness you're here. You and Lucy got to help us!" Bridgette said. "Katie and Sadie are covered in barf." "That only leaves Tyler, Duncan, or Harold. We already know Tyler stinks. What can Duncan do again?" "Carve a picture of his own skull into a tree?" "Oh, that's what Chris was talking about." a famous nature activist said, now understanding. "How the heck is going to do so in a stage when the trees are planted to the ground?" one of the wunderkinder questioned, looking not surprised. "What are we going to do?" Courtney asked, panicking. Geoff then noticed. "Wait, where's Marinette?" Bridgette and Courtney now noticed that he was right that Marinette wasn't there anymore. "Where did she go?" Just then, they all hear music playing. They watched Bridgette and Courtney look to see Harold start playing some music with his keyboard. The spotlights then shine on four girls, which turn out to be Marinette, Lucy, and the two girls of the MetaBetas, Angie and Malviña. Who are otherwise known as Miss Maleficent and Queen Red Hood. Everyone looked shocked and surprised to see them onstage. That was when the girls started singing.

Lucy: Never gets old no matter how much I'm told I'm amazing

Angie: You're amazing

Lucy: It's hard to get tired when I'm always on fire I'm blazing

Angie: Ooh, you're blazing

Malviña: All my greatness. It doesn't come for free. All my talent. It doesn't grow on trees. Take a breather. They'll take it all away.

Marinette: If the top is where you wanna stay

All Four: You gotta work hard. To make it look easy. You gotta live fast. To keep making that money. If you want to be as famous as me. You gotta work, gotta work, gotta work. Watch me work.

Everyone looked surprised and amazed, seeing Marinette perform with the MetaBetas, while the campers, too, looked surprised. Their singing and dancing were all in sync. They were even surprised with their outfits. They were wearing hoodies in their colors. Angie in purple, Malviña in black, Lucy in navy blue, and Marinette in pink. On the back of their hoodies have their logos in silver, and their stage names in rhinestones.

Angie: Haters want to be me or be with me yeah, they're fr-fr-fr-freaking

Lucy: Yeah, they're freaking

Angie: I just keep on working, lurking, smirking when they think that I'm peaking

Lucy: Never peaking, yeah

Malviña: All my greatness. It doesn't come for free. All my talent. It doesn't grow on trees. Take a breather. They'll take it all away.

Marinette: If the top is where you wanna stay

All four: You gotta work hard. To make it look easy. You gotta live fast. To keep making that money. If you want to be as famous as me. You gotta work, gotta work, gotta work. Watch me work.

After they ended their performance with a pose of their choice, there was a quick pause in the audience in front of them until the campers all started to cheer for their performance. Everyone else also cheered and applauded the five for their outstanding performance.

Chris then walks up to them, clapping. "Wicked music playing, dude. And MetaBetas, a very outstanding performance." "Hey, it's what we do." Malviña said, "And a perfect way to help endorse Total Drama." Angie added. "Especially with our newest member of the MetaBetas. Our very own Knitting Fairy." Lucy happily announced, wrapping an arm around Marinette. Marinette giggles as she waves to the others, causing them to cheer more about Marinette now being a new member of the idol group. Everyone cheered as well. "Alright, Marinette!" "Our little girl, a new member of an idol group!" "That's my Marinetta!" Marinette's friends cheered, feeling very happy for her. "And we would like to thank Harold for taking part in aiding our performance." Harold smiled and nodded to the girls as thanks and a way of saying 'happy to help.' "Congratulations, Marinette, for now being in their group. And check it out. Grandmaster Chef has declared his winner. Even though they held the lead, the Screaming Gophers have been trampled by the Killer Bass."

After a while of cheering, they all headed home for the night, still feeling happy for the girl for both winning the challenge for the team and being a new member of the MetaBetas. Meanwhile, in her bedroom, Chloe still watches the show, not surprised to know that Heather got some of the campers to vote off Justin. But she then watches Gwen's confessional. "If that evil little cow thinks she's getting away with this scot-free, she has another thing coming." Chloe then watches as Gwen knocks on the guys' side of the Killer Bass door. Harold answers, and Gwen asks him, "Did you say you brought a red ant farm with you?" "Yes." After that, while everyone was asleep, Heather ran out of the Screaming Gophers cabin, covered in red ants, screaming and trying to get them off of her. Chloe then laughs at Heather while she trips and falls. "Serves you right, Heather! Nobody messes with Dupain-Cheng but me!" she said.

??? & ???

The two of them watch as Lucy squints her eyes, trying to sleep while Heather is still screaming. "Man, I thought I was done with this when I was at that sleepover with Kit, Mills, Jade-Jade, and Sonya." she whisper-mumbled while putting her pillow over her head in order to drown the noise. "I can never forget the time she ranted on about what they did." one of them said, remembering the times she ranted. The second one nodded as they looked at the tablet that showed the account of Lucy and the rest of the MetaBetas. "At least we now know how to get in touch with her. Call the number. With this, we will finally get to her." "Of course."

Miraculous meets the SVU

Season 20 cast, Olivia Benson, Fin Tutuola, Amanda Rollins, Sonny Carisi, and Peter Stone

A series of cyber bullying is going on in New York toward teenagers, mainly girls, and causes quite a few to commit suicide when their secrets are revealed to the public, making them special victims. After a round of questioning the bullies of the victims, they hit a dead end.

But then, the IP address of the online harasser is traced all the way to Paris. The team take a flight to investigate and find themselves at Francoise DuPont

They’re not too fond of the principal, especially when they see the way he handles a dispute between a regular student and one who’s apparently a sports captain. (You can tell whose side he takes) Fin and Amanda question Damocles until it looks like he’s about to pass out and gives them permission to access the computer being used to send the messages

On their way to the computer lab, they run into Zoé, whom they recognize after they questioned her about the assault of one of her classmates. Olivia asks Zoé if there’s been any bullying going on at school, and Zoé leaves 0 out

Zoé: Oh! Where to begin? First there’s this jackass, Louis. He constantly calls my friend’s artwork trash whenever he can and acts like he’s Leonardo DaVince, my half-sister acting like the queen of England just because her dad’s the mayor, and of course, Lila Rossi. I haven’t been here long enough, but let me tell you, based on what my friends told me, she is a nightmare. Oh, and I can’t forget Madame Bustier. She lets the rich and privileged students do as they please, be bullies, and forces their victims to apologize. Kind of like Damocles, but he’s more of a coward and doesn’t try to hide his bias with kind words and shit.

Olivia/Fin/Amanda/Sonny/Peter: …

Fin: … Who or what the hell is Shadow Moth?

Zoé would have gone more into detail, but she had to get to class, so now, the SVU has more suspects to question. When they check the computer, it seems whoever was doing the cyber bullying knew how to cover their tracks, because they can’t find anything on it. That, or Damocles was fucking with them and trying to protect a rich kid

Before they could figure out what more to do, Olivia got a call that another New York teenager committed suicide. And it wasn’t any ordinary teenager, this was the governor’s nephew, making this case top priority

After “gently coaxing” Damocles into letting them question some students, they seem to be getting somewhere

They start with Zoé and her classmates

Zoé: Cyber bullying isn’t up Chloé’s alley. She prefers to humiliate her targets in person. Plus, I think she’s smart enough to know her dad can’t get her out of international crimes.

Marc: Louis only likes to mess with my boyfriend. Plus, I don’t think he’s smart enough to be able to pull international cyber bullying off… Unless he hired someone, but he doesn’t have Chloé money.

Cosette: … Nah, it’s not Louis. Maybe Chloé?… Or Lila. I’d check Lila. Her mom’s a diplomat, probably. And if I’m being honest, she’s kind of arrogant… So, might wanna check that out.

Ismael: Oh, it was Lila. Word of advice, do not trust a thing she says. You know, this one girl got expelled because of her and then reinstated because of a “tragic misunderstanding.”

Reshma: I’m thinking Lila for this one. I don’t like to throw out titles, but… I think she may be a psychopath. She fits the description quite well.

Aurore: Check out Lila. If it wasn’t her, then Chloé. Lila’s more meticulous, but Chloé likes to get things done quick with her money.

Jean: Check out Lila Rossi. Oh, and while you’re at it, Gabriel Agreste.

Amanda: The designer?

Jean: Yeah, he’s her and Adrien’s boss. They model together, but whenever I see Adrien after his shoots with her, he’s wearing a TON of makeup on his face and arms… You guys are the cops who handle abuse, right?

So now, Amanda’s looking into Adrien’s welfare while Olivia and Fin handle the case. Back in New York, TARU is able to get past the firewall (Or something) and trace the messages to one of the phones in the school. They barge into the cafeteria, and are lead to Lila Rossi. And they arrest her while her friends followers advocate for her release

They show all the evidence to Mme. Rossi when she storms into the interrogation room, but she’s not buying a second of it and demands for Lila’s release. And as Lila is a minor, they have no choice

After a very frustrating conversation with Gabriel, Amanda runs into Vincent. He shows her some incriminating photos of Lila doing everything but having sex with Adrien during shoots and explains that he showed Gabriel what was going on, but he never did anything to stop it. Amanda relays this to Olivia and Fin, giving them enough reason to haul Lila and Gabriel to the interrogation room and get a warrant to search Lila’s room for “Proof that she’s stalking Adrien.”

The Paris police force look through Lila’s room for anymore evidence of her crime… Then they find a book under her bed. It’s a very disturbing scrapbook filled with news clippings of a few preteens and teenagers who had committed suicide, been arrested, or severely injured. There are also photos of the New York teenagers on some kind of hit list page with little notes detailing how one would make their lives a living hell. Each one who died has a red ex over their face. And just after that page are photos of teenagers from other states and even countries

Olivia: … Haul her ass to court.

The court date arrives, and as one would guess, Lila’s sobbing her eyes out and trying to play the victim. She somehow manages to drag this on until the judge gets fed up and orders for the trial to continue tomorrow

During that time, the SVU interrogates Gabriel, and is just so. Damn. Infuriating. He makes bullshit claims about not knowing, says Adrien is overreacting, and they’ve had just about enough of this guy

TARU pulls up a few things on Gabriel’s phone to prove he was aware of Adrien’s treatment, along with texts to and from Lila where she tells her about the “bad influences” in Adrien’s life which are most of his classmates. There’s also a few messages between him and Nathalie about this Shadow Moth guy again

After looking him up, they realize that Shadow Moth is an emotional terrorist who has been plaguing Paris for nearly a year now, only to be stopped by Ladybug and Chat Noir

Now they have a warrant to search his property and eventually find Shadow Moth’s lair, and Roger has them search the perimeter for Shadow Moth’s Miraculous

Sonny: You know. If I were a supervillain, I wouldn’t leave anything important to me where someone would get to it easily.

They head back to the interrogation room, frisk Gabriel until they find the Miraculous, and rip them off before he could transform.

To make things short and sweet because I’m running out of ideas, Mme. Bustier ruins her reputation in only five seconds by going up to the stand as a character witness for Lila and claiming Adrien should forgive Lila and Gabriel to be a good example for victims of abuse. (It takes all of Olivia willpower to not shoot that bitch) Gabriel, Nathalie, and Lila are found guilty of conspiracy, terrorism, sexual assault, suicide baiting, child abuse, child neglect, aiding in terrorism, emotional abuse, cybercrimes, and defamation.

Just as she’s about to be handcuffed, Lila grabs the glass of water on her table, shatters it to make the end sharp and charges at Olivia, only for her to pull out her gun and shoot Lila’s ankle

At the end, Ladybug and Chat Noir arrive to retrieve the Butterfly and Peacock Miraculous, Adrien’s aunt takes custody of him, and Fin calls the school board to have them take in Mme. Bustier along with Damocles for questioning

So hi lol I forgot about this blog.

𝟬𝟵𝟬𝟮𝟮𝟬𝟮𝟯 : ᴍʟʙ ᴛᴜᴍʙʟʀ ᴘʀᴏᴍᴘᴛ ʀᴇᴏ̨ᴜᴇsᴛ

ᴘᴀɪʀɪɴɢs : Felinette, Lukloe, Adrigami sᴀʟᴛs : Alya Salt, Bustier Salt, Lila Salt ʀᴇᴅᴇᴍᴘᴛɪᴏɴs : Adrien Redemption, Chloe Redemption

𝔱𝔥𝔢 𝔇𝔢𝔢𝔱𝔰!

Marinette and Chloe had transffered out of Francois Dupont into a school where Kagami and Luka went. Marinette is friends with the Quantic Kids who had help her grow confident and clearly has a crush on Felix Fathom who is Adrien's cousin. Chloe has a crush on Luka while Kagami is working on Adrien though his advice which ticked her off and gave him other options why his advice doesn't work for the school with a help by Chloe.

Adrien redeem himself thanks to Kagami for the help but has feelings for Kagami for quite a while but doesn't like when Alya forced him to like Marinette since he considered her as a sister figure instead.

━ ━ ━  ━ ━ ━  ━ ━ ━  ━ ━ ━  ━ ━ ━

Meanwhile at the Francois Dupont, Mylene's dad decided to take a break from his teaching but didn't like how Damocles abuse his power as a principal he has been filing a complaint towards the School Board about him and Caline as he had seen both of them ignoring the school laws that was in the pamplet for students who is entering their school.

So he remembered his job was to check the secruity cameras. Clearly the secruity cameras weren't even broken but its still ongoing so he decided to investigate it himself why Damocles didn't bother to look at the cameras when it comes to bullying.

Until one of the clips with Lila Rossi caught him in action. He made copies for the Authories and the Police included. One of them was Lila grabbing the Akuma and willing to aid terrorism with Hawkmoth and the second one was to accus cheating and theft to Ms. Dupain-Cheng that really pissed him off. That would explain why Ms. Dupain-Cheng transferred out of this toxic school. Her parents weren't very happy with Lila, Caline, and Damocles for this mess.

There were the other two of Adrien being Chat Noir and Marinette being Ladybug which surprised him alot but since Adrien is no longer Chat Noir which caught him very suspicious about this but had seen videos from Aurore's blog that Adrien sexually harassed Ladybug & Marinette. He is still not happy with Adrien's father.

While Marinette's Parents along with Jagged Stone work in the shadow in order to get lawsuit towards Alya Cesaire and Lila Rossi for most of it.

Dating ‘Prince Charming’ Part 2/3

[ Lila is finally starting to learn what its really like to be Adrien Agreste's girlfriend and finding out its not everything she hoped it would be. But while the liar struggles Marinette works toward her goals and meets someone new. ]

[ Prefer AO3? Link HERE! | Part 1 HERE! | Part 3 Coming Soon | Masterlist Link HERE! ]

Chloe made her grand return 3 weeks after Lila and Adrien’s big dating announcement. The bossy blonde had been away in New York with her mother and it was only in retrospect that Marinette briefly wondered if the entire timing of her and Adriens break up and Lila and Adriens announcement had been planned. After all Chloe had not taken well to Marinette dating Adrien and the class president was positive she would not take the news that Lila had swooped in right after their big breakup any better.

As it turns out Marinette had been right at least about Chloe not taking the news well. She’d walked into class early (for her) only to be met with chaos as Chloe and Lila stood opposed and yelling filled the classroom. Despite the fact that Marinette KNEW Chloe would hate whoever dated Adrien the sight was still enough to leave her mildly stunned after all Lila and Chloe had been tag team harassing Marinette since the second she and Adrien had started dating so to see the once allies now locked in a vicious match each using their unique brand of awful against each other… Well it was something. 

Luckily Marinette knew she would not have to lift a finger to fix things. Because this? This was Adrien’s problem. And Marinette had no intention of helping or playing mediator. After all Adrien had let Lila and Chloe stomp all over their relationship when they’d still been dating, heck he’d even asked Marinette to simply deal with it so now he could deal with it and Marinette severely doubted that Lila would be even half as accepting or accommodating as she had been. 

 So while the two wannabe queens duked it out Lila with fake tears and Chloe with vicious mockery Marinette simply glided past the drama and up to her seat where she pulled out her sketchbook and started adding the finishing touches to a sketch of a brand new rock and roll suit for Uncle Jagged. Now that she wasn’t chasing after Adrien 24/7 and making him gifts and worrying about him or Lila or Chloe not to mention trying to keep up with her school work and grades all while also being Ladybug well Marinette had time on her hands and she’d been using it to study, track down Hawkmoth with Alya’s help, spend time with friends but most of all she’d been using that time on her career. 

 As she wrote in what materials she would need to get a certain sheen effect on the outfit, Marinette noticed the green eyes looking up at her desperately from the front of the class. Marinette glanced up noting how Adrien seemed to be trying to plead with her to help as he tried to reign in his dramatic new girlfriend and attack dog childhood friend; she only cocked her head to the side, smiled and offered him a little wave before continuing with her work. Yeah no way was she willingly throwing herself into THAT.

 Sure enough before class could start Adrien managed to drag Lila out of the room and into the hallway no doubt to give her the same speech he had given Marinette when THEY were dating Lila bursting back into the classroom a few minutes later looking like she’d just swallowed a whole lemon only confirmed Marinette’s suspicions. 

 What Marinette had not expected was Lila openly complaining about ADRIEN at lunch, hours after the incidents of that morning. Marinette ate her steamed bun as she watched with mild surprise as the Italian wailed and threw a veritable tantrum as she told the girls all about how Adrien had put Chloe first and had asked Lila to simply deal with it. It was so painfully ironic that Marinette struggled not to roll her eyes. Honestly after the breakup Marinette had for a brief time contemplated revenge because truthfully. She was hurt and mad but Tikki had talked her out of it claiming that karma would have its way Marinette hadn’t believed the little god at the time too lost in her grief and her ice cream but now? Well now Marinette was starting to understand what Tikki meant. Because Lila wanted to be Adrien Agreste’s girlfriend no matter what it took, and she was only now starting to see what that really meant.

 Sure enough in the weeks that followed Lila and Chloe kept each other busy allowing Marinette to for the first time in years relax at school. Of course Lila tried to redirect Chloe’s hatred back at Marinette by telling the blonde about how it had been Marinette who initiated the break up. But Marinette had easily overcome Chloe’s rage with honesty after all she had only broken up with Adrien because she knew they were incompatible and that Adrien would be happier with someone else, something Chloe agreed with though the way in which the blonde agreed made Marinette’s eye twitch just a little.

 And then of course there was Adrien who was still trying to get Marinette to step in and help him handle his childhood friend and girlfriend but Marinette had been able to dodge him for weeks until they were having a class meetup at the park. Chloe was not attending due to wanting to avoid the ‘peasants’ as she so called them and Lila claimed she would be late due to an important meeting with some famous person. Honestly Marinette had not even bothered to pay attention. Adrien had noted the lack of ‘problem people’ and had decided to make a bold move calling Marinette out as they all hung out together to ‘talk to her in private’ yeah like THAT was going to happen. 

 Marinette knew Adrien’s modus operandi very well. He’d call you out, ask to talk to you privately and then lay on the guilt trip. No way was she doing that anymore she’d endured enough of them while they were dating to last a lifetime.

 “Actually I would prefer not to talk to you alone, Adrien. You're publicly dating someone and we never know when your fans or the paparazzi might be around. Besides anything you can say to me in private you can say in front of OUR friends.” 

 Adrien looked like a kicked puppy at her words. But as their classmates quickly took her side and insisted he tell Marinette whatever he needed with them around the blonde was backed into a corner.

 “Well the thing is… I was wondering if you could help? With the whole Lila, Chloe situation?”

 Marinette wasn’t even given a chance to respond. The second the words left Adrien’s mouth the entire class bristled, many giving Adrien looks of confusion and shock as if he’d just spoken pure nonsense and honestly in a way he had. Nathaniel however was the one who said it best.

 “Wait I’m sorry are you seriously asking Marinette to mediate between her long time bully and the girl you started dating not even an hour after your break up with her? Are you serious?!” 

 “W-Well I just thought-”

 “Thought what Agreste? That Marinette should put herself in the worlds worst situation completely ignoring her own feelings just to make your life easier?” 

 Oof Kim going straight for the throat.

 “B-But shes the class president!”

 “So?! That doesn’t make her a genie! She can't just clap her hands and fix everything nor should she have to!”

 Marinette had never heard Rose sound so upset in her life, which is when the young fashion designer knew it was her turn to say her piece and get things back under control.

 “Adrien.” She ignored the hopeful look he shot her. “Not only do I not want to get involved but I don’t think it would help. Chloe doesn’t like me and Lila’s ‘disease’-” she said the word with barely concealed sarcasm “acts up when I’m around. So I’m sorry but no I will not help you with this.”

 “But I’m sure if you just-”

 The look the class shot him was enough to end the conversation and Marinette let out a relieved sigh as her heart filled with warmth she really loved her friends.

 A month after the conversation in the park Lila Rossi got her second harsh wake up call to the ‘true joys’ of being Adrien Agreste’s girlfriend and it was a two for one deal. 

 Lila had seemingly been under the assumption that once she was dating Adrien her own popularity would rise to meet his but she was starting to learn that wasn’t the case. Adrien still got plenty more photo-shoots then she did and most were still solo and since they were fast approaching the spring fashion season Adrien was plenty busy with more and more shoots while Lila was left waiting for her turn in the spotlight.

 Perhaps it was the frustration at not immediately sky rocketing her way up in fame or maybe it was the snide comments from Adrien Fangirls talking about the lack of couples shoots but Lila seemingly came up with the brilliant plan to force the spotlight onto herself by demanding, manipulating and forcing Adrien to take her on big flashy fancy dates where the paparazzi always conveniently found them Marinette had no doubt Lila was the one tipping them off but she kept her mouth shut. It wasn’t her problem.

 However while Lila was enjoying her tabloid paparazzi fueled fame the class and more surprisingly Gabriel Agreste himself were beginning to notice the way it was wearing Adrien down. Between his photo-shoots and busy schedule all of Adrien’s precious free time was being filled up by Lila and her many needy antics and it was starting to show in the way Adrien carried himself and how exhausted he seemed.

 Nino was the one who led the charge just as he had when Lila manipulated the class into thinking her ‘clingy’ but where Marinette had gotten some hurtful but well meaning lectures about her Adrien obsession which in retrospect DID help her realize her love was unhealthy. Lila was not given such a kind well meaning speech instead Nino got mad, something he rarely let himself become.

 As it turns out Lila had worn Adrien down to the point where the blonde was too exhausted to function and he’d nearly passed out while standing and talking to Nino and that mixed with the fact that it had previously been Lila who painted the faux picture of Marinette as the clingy evil girlfriend isolating the boy from his friends was enough for Nino to harshly call her out. The liar did do her best to wriggle out of the situation trying to claim she only wanted ‘some’ private time with her oh so busy boyfriend but Nino was not having it and the class was too happy to back him up.

 The more Lila tried to defend and excuse her actions the angrier Nino got and much to the liars annoyance the young musician had proof and plenty of it. Between his text correspondence with Adrien that revealed the model was constantly being forced to cancel relaxing friend days to take Lila out on flashy dates that always ended with paparazzi and fans swarming the location and forcing Adrien into high stress situations, and an extremely detailed schedule planner that Nino had made to keep track of his best buds work life balance (potential evidence to blackmail Gabriel Agreste if he ever threatened to pull Adrien out of school again apparently). The facts didn’t lie and they were showing that Lila was the real ‘clingy’ girlfriend.

 Things eventually got so heated between Nino and Lila arguing that an akuma appeared to try and take advantage of the situation. Luckily for everyone Ladybug had been patrolling and stopped the naughty little butterfly from making things worse. In the end Lila was forced to grit her teeth and apologize to her darling boyfriend. Though perhaps what upset her more was the way the class proceeded to apologize to Marinette after the fact for ever accusing her of being clingy and taking up too much of Adrien’s free time.

 However Lila still thought she had one last ace up her sleeve, and so after the class luncheon ended the liar proceeded to contact Gabriel hoping to get her new boyfriends dad to reign him in and do her bidding. Unluckily for Lila however Gabriel had been paying attention to the situation and that fact that it had ALMOST led to an akuma made him look even closer into things.

 And he was not happy with what he found. The paparazzi pictures and articles that resulted from Lila and Adrien’s flashy dates had started positively enough with headlines and puff pieces about how cute the couple looked together, how it was nice to see the young Agreste in more casual settings with his girlfriend. But as the dates became more and more frequent and Lila’s constant demands and needs grew the articles slowly began to change soon they were discussing the concerning amount of money Adrien must be spending on his girlfriend, how exhausted and stressed the young Agreste heir looked under his strained smiles and was he eating and sleeping enough?

 The akuma he’d sent had only further confirmed Gabriel’s negative feelings toward Lila though it did make him re-evaluate the young Lahiffe boy. Gabriel had originally thought the wannabe musician might just be interested in Adrien for money but seeing the lengths he went to defend his friend had the designer impressed and even a little grateful. So when Lila phoned to try and throw the boy under the bus and get Gabriel to side with her, well she had another thing coming.

 Marinette heard later from Alya and the rest of the girls that Lila was ‘devastated’ how she’d wailed sobbed and thrown the tantrum of the century as she ranted and raved about Gabriel putting a 1 date a month maximum limit on Adrien and Lila. The two lovebirds could still hang out of course but it would be in the company of the rest of the class or other friends, or if they really wanted some privacy it would be strictly at the Agreste mansion for studying. Lila had told the girls that it was unfair and unjust that Gabriel was trying to get in the way of their love! Alya had relayed to Marinette that while the girls agreed that 1 date a month was a bit rough they all thought Lila’s tantrum was a bit childish especially when they all remembered how Marinette had rarely if ever got to enjoy 1 private date a month with Adrien and never in public.

 Of course just because Lila had been told ‘no’ didn’t mean the liar was going to listen. And so she began trying to find ways to manipulate Adrien into ‘accidental’ dates, bugging the blonde to take her out instead of settling for lunch at school or trying to conveniently separate the two of them from the rest of the group during weekend and after school hang outs. But each time Lila tried Nino thwarted her eventually the Italian had gotten so angry at his meddling that she phoned Gabriel again this time to try and get the musician removed or banned or ANYTHING so that he’d back off, so when she instead learned that Nino had been asked by Gabriel to keep an eye out on for his son and that Adrien knew about it well the liar was furious. 

 Marinette learned later this time from Rose and Juleka that the Italian had tried to go on another tantrum tirade only to be stopped by Alya who would not tolerate anyone badmouthing her lovely boyfriend. Needless to say, Marinette was quick to notice the following Monday how Lila pouted and avoided the Ladyblogger like the plague. Luckily Marinette made sure Alya didn’t dwell on it too much by inviting the girl over to help her brainstorm some new ideas.

 Because while Lila was focusing on leeching the fame and fortune off her boyfriend and being met with endless failures and a very hostile guard dog called Chloe. Marinette had been THRIVING. The suit she’d designed for Jagged had gone viral online and soon Jagged was passing on her contact information to a small selection of celebrities Marinette felt comfortable designing for. The fact that her identity was a secret and she had a very exclusive client list had only caused MDC to soar even higher in popularity with the public making it clear that they too wanted access to MDC fashion. And so Marinette had done her research and with the help of Uncle Jagged and Aunt Penny she’d set up an online store where she would sell ready made clothes. 

 Of course just because Marinette was seeing success didn’t mean she had forgotten about her friends. In fact the entire class minus Lila, Adrien and Chloe knew very well the true identity of the elusive MDC and that was because while Marinette was taking big steps toward her dreams she was helping her friends do just the same. 

 After all it didn’t take long for the internet to learn that the mysterious MDC designed Kitty Sections outfits causing the band to have a surge of free publicity that led to many people discovering their music and falling in love with the band. 

 Then there was Nathanial, Marc and Alya who Marinette or should she say MDC collaborated with while designing her ‘hero hoodie’ fashion collection all of them saw a boost in views with Marc and Nathanial’s comic picking up new readers though it was there brand new all original idea that had really flown off the shelves earning them an online cult following. Alya meanwhile got her blog spotted by Lois Lane herself who was impressed with the young future journalist and contacted Alya for a summer internship the scream Alya had made almost gave Marinette a heart attack.

 And it didn’t end there. When Nino made a short film with Mylene and Kim of all people as his lead actors and uploaded it for free to YouTube MDC who was well known for supporting smaller creatives and signal boosting them on her social media was more than happy to make a tweet linking to the short film. Nino’s short film had been impactful and powerful despite being a comedy satire on Hawkmoth and it had quickly blown up earning Nino a summer internship at a film studio and Mylene and Kim several job offers. Kim had never been particularly interested in acting but after seeing the outpouring of love and support not to mention with the encouragement he got from his lovely girlfriend Ondine he decided to accept a few offers surprising everyone as he developed a new passion that he and Mylene bonded over.

 Max, and Alix were also boosted in a similar way to Nino, Kim and Mylene when MDC retweeted some of their creative endeavors. Alix a video where she had used spray paint to recreate a few classical paintings though that had only acted as a signal boost that allowed the skater to be noticed for her real passion Extreme Sports! When a very exclusive extreme sports training summer camp contacted Alix about her attending she’d squealed almost as loud as Alya had. Max meanwhile had his demo for his work in progress video games retweeted by MDC and saw a huge surge in interest and a few interested investors and publishers even arrived with offers, though before he could agree to anything his popularity ballooned even further when a video of him showing off Markov surfaced. He had later joked to Marinette that while he appreciated the support he wasn’t sure how he felt about suddenly gaining a ‘nerd cult’ as Kim called it. 

 Of course all of Marinette’s friends knew she was largely responsible for their sudden surge of fame and good fortune and many of them tried to dismiss their own talents and give all the credit to Marinette. But the young designer simply threw it back at them. Yes she had signal boosted them and given them a helping hand but at the end of the day the only reason they had gotten so popular and stayed so popular after the brief burst from her influence passed and the internet moved on to the next big thing was because they were talented and amazing without Marinette.

 The only problem with the classes' new found fame. Was that sooner or later Lila was bound to take notice. And take notice she did when Mylene appeared as an extra in one of Lila’s favorite daytime soaps. The liar had been so focused on Adrien and trying to leech her fame off him while beating Chloe back with a stick that she had somehow missed all the major developments. And she was livid. 

 She was supposed to be the most popular girl in school! She was meant to be the star, the one people admired and aspired to be like! The one they envied but loved too much to truly hate! And when she’d finally gotten Marinette and Adrien to break up she thought for sure that all her dreams would come true. But somehow while she’d been busy trying to reign in the pesky little blonde her classmates had all gone and gotten famous without her. Most of them wouldn’t even BE in Paris in the fast approaching summer since many of them either had internships, specialized camps, acting gigs, or in Kitty Sections case a whole music tour with Jagged Stone that for some reason Marinette was also a part of?!? 

 None of it made any sense and when Lila had gone looking for how exactly everything had happened she kept finding herself looking at MDC’s social media. The elusive and private designer was apparently a super sucker or something as every week they would highlight some small time random creator. Honestly it disgusted Lila who just handed out fame like that? Fame and popularity was meant to be exclusive! Earned! Something for only the most beautiful and talented of society. Not for chubby little idiots like Mylene or nerdy freaks like Max. 

 Of course Lila was nothing if not an opportunist. Sure in her opinion none of her talentless, average, classmates actually deserved their new found fame and popularity but the good thing was they were also a bunch of gullible idiots. And if she played her cards right they would surely carry her to the top. She already had the perfect lie, she would simply claim to be best friends with MDC and tell the class that she had been the one to recommend that the designer boost her classmates. 

 It was perfect. Genius really.

 So then why did it fail immediately?

 Lila stood in front of the class, her face frozen in shock as she was stared down by 10 pairs of angry glares. She had expected overwhelming thank you’s and the class bowing at her feet but the second the lie slipped out of her mouth the class instead turned on the liar like a close knit pack of wolves smelling a sheep. Honestly Lila could not understand where she’d gone wrong, and even if she had said something that was an obvious lie wouldn’t the class just normally brush it off as her disease? So why is it that they were acting this way?

 It was Alya who broke the silence first.

 “You want to run that by us again? Lila.” 

 The Italian girl swallowed the lump in her throat and ignored the obvious warning sign that was Alya’s sharp tone. Forcing a charming smile Lila brought out her sweetest voice determined that she could salvage whatever THIS was.

 “I was just saying that I’m so happy for all of you! I didn’t want to say anything at the time BUT me and MDC are such good friends! So when he-”

 “He?” Alix snorted and rolled her eyes. “Yeah that about confirms it.”

 The entire class seemed to agree with Alix as they all shook their heads and shot Lila disappointed and annoyed looks before returning to their own conversations and or hobbies freezing her out. Ignoring her.

 Oh that? That pissed Lila off like nothing else. Her cheeks grew hot as she stomped her foot angrily, regaining their attention. 

 “You guys think I’m telling lies again! You all promised that you wouldn’t judge me for my disease but you are!” For added effect she started to sniffle and sob expecting the class to do what they always did and feel guilty about their treatment of her and rush to comfort her.

 Instead she was met with even harsher glares.

 “Uhh yeah no duh we think you're lying because you ARE. We” Alix gestured to the people currently in class. “Have all met MDC and SHE not ‘he’ is a wonderful person who helped boost our careers because she thinks we're all super cool and talented not because you asked her too.” 

 Lila felt her face screw up like she’d just sucked a lemon but she quickly worked it to her advantage as she began to loudly sob.

 “T-That’s not fair! You know I can't help my disease!” 

 “Uhh yeah no. I’m stopping you there.” Alya stood up looking down from her perch at Lila with her hands on her hips commanding the room, Lois had been training her well. “We can accept that MAYBE your lying disease makes you claim things when your nervous or scared like how you always accuse Marinette of stuff, and we can MAYBE believe that your disease makes you mix up names and words so you end up giving the wrong information out about charities and celebrities and yes MAYBE we can believe that you sometimes make false claims about yourself when your stressed out like that time with Clara Nightingale stealing your dance moves. Whatever! But Lila that right there? You were not having an ‘oops I lied’ moment you were actively trying to deceive us to make the false claim that YOU are the reason MDC noticed us when we know the truth. And when I gave you a chance to correct yourself you tried to double down. That was intentional. That was malicious.”

 Lila felt her mouth fall open, her eyes blinking in shock. Too late she tried to recover. Tried to explain away the situation and make herself out to be innocent. But the class was done with her and they made it clear in how they iced her out. Eventually she had no choice but to suck it up and sit down at her seat. Not long later Marinette rushed into class followed by Chloe who was latched onto Adrien with Sabrina in tow.

 Soon enough the school year came to an end and Lila watched bitterly through the all seeing eyes of the internet as her classmates left for their internships, job opportunities, highly specialized summer camps, and more. Meanwhile she was stuck at home. Oh sure she got to go on a few out of country photo-shoots with Adrien but her fame was still nothing compared to her boyfriends, and it was quickly becoming less than nothing as her classmates rose in influence and popularity. Come the new school year Lila would need to find some way to force the class back under her heel.

 Marinette was having the best summer of her life! Jagged had taken Kitty Section on tour with him and insisted on Marinette coming with them as their designer. Marinette hadn’t been sure at first worried about the Hawkmoth situation and her own career. But in the end Tikki and her parents had convinced her. Her parents loved the idea of Marinette leaving Paris and going to see the world with her friends for a bit, and Tikki had reminded Marinette that she had the Horse Miraculous and could come home anytime, besides Hawkmoth had been getting lazier and lazier with both his akumas and the amount of them. So in the end Marinette agreed and it had been the BEST decision of her life.

 They visited England before eventually traveling overseas to America. The sights and sounds and new foods were filling Marinette with inspiration and she’d never been so busy sketching. Then of course there was the great company. Uncle Jagged and Aunt Penny were wonderful and quickly ‘adopted’ all of Kitty Section + Marinette. They'd act like doting parents one second and then the next they’d be ordering way too much pizza for the teens to share. 

 Of course everyone missed their friends and family but video call existed and it was only for the summer anyway. Ivan was the one who was probably the worst off pouting over his beloved Mylene but the group was able to cheer him up encouraging him to write a song for his girlfriend, the piece he wrote became a new hit single the second they performed it on stage and Mylene had loved it. 

 The group stopped by Florida first where Jagged took them all to Disney World and then Universal Park, pictures of the rocker wearing mickey mouse ears and a hufflepuff scarf of all things while being followed by a gaggle of teenagers had soon gone viral, after that it was off to New York, and then Metropolis where they spent a bit of time so Alya could see them and hang out. Her internship with Lois Lane was going well but she’d still been relieved to see her friends and get some down time to just chill. After that they went to Gotham, which was Jagged’s home town. Now most parents might veto a place as dangerous as Gotham but seeing as how Paris was under siege by an emotional butterfly themed terrorist and they were from a class particularly used to dealing with deadly akumas on a regular basis well they were able to convince their parents to let it happen. And to Marinette’s surprise Gotham turned out to be her favorite place of the whole trip.

 Sure the city was gloomy but the gothic architecture somehow inspired Marinette, and while the people were not outwardly all smiles and sunshine they were kind in their own way. But the thing Marinette ended up loving most about Gotham was its beautiful parks and famous greenhouses. Thanks to the influence of Poison Ivy and Bruce Wayne the city of Gotham had become the greenest city in all of America and it was a never ending source of inspiration for the young designer. Not to mention it was thanks to all the inspiring greenery that Marinette had met HIM.

 She’d been walking through one of Gotham’s older parks admiring the beautiful blooming wisterias that had been shaped into a long hallway arch when she got bowled over by a massive terrifying but very friendly dog. Marinette had been terrified at first until she noticed the fast wagging tail and happy smile on the dog's face. Tikki had warned her that one side effect of holding the Ladybug miraculous would be extra friendly animals a rather ‘tame’ side effect compared to the super strength, increased speed, and occasional urge to hibernate when cold but still the designer had never expected to be attacked with friendly happy dog kisses, not like THIS anyway. As she squirmed and laughed she tried to gently push the dog off. That was when the dogs owner had come to her rescue. Yanking his dog off of her while admonishing it Marinette was finally able to sit up and begin wiping the dog drool off her cheek with a laugh.

 “Don’t scold the cutie too much I’m okay I swear he didn’t hurt me.”

 “Even if he didn’t hurt you he’s been trained better than that. I’m very sorry, please allow me to help you.”

 The boy’s voice was cool, firmly polite and matter of fact leaving no room for argument. To an untrained ear he might even sound annoyed or angry but Marinette could tell that wasn’t the case. As Marinette accepted the hand the boy offered and let herself be pulled up she suddenly came face to face with the most beautiful pair of green eyes she’d ever seen. 

 Where Adrien’s eyes were bright like a blinding peridot green, these eyes were soft and warm like the green of a pine tree and Marinette could feel herself melt into them. It didn’t help that the rest of the boy's face was also incredibly handsome. The designer quickly shook herself out of her thoughts and glanced away not wanting to stare. Instead she directed her attention to her assailant, the dog was sitting now staring up at her with its tail still wagging wildly. Marinette smiled and reached her hand down letting the dog sniff her before she gave him some soft pets.

 “Such a softy for a big guy. What's his name?” 

 “Titus. And I apologize again. He really is trained better than that. I don’t know what came over him.” 

 Marinette felt a little bad but she couldn’t exactly say that she was the chosen champion of a god and a side effect of that was very friendly animals so instead she shot the boy a smile.

 “Don’t worry I just seem to have that effect on animals. Back home the pigeons and crows have started fighting for dominance of my roof and balcony because they both want my attention.” 

 The boy gave her a stunned look before he made a sound that Marinette believed might be a covered up laugh. She smiled even brighter and offered the boy her hand to shake.

 “By the way my name is Marinette. And it's a pleasure to meet you.”

 The boy looked at her hand for a moment before he eventually grabbed it and shook it awkwardly.

 “Damian… It's nice to meet you too. Though I can tell by that introduction that you're not from here.”

 Marinette snorted at that.

 “Really the introduction was what gave it away but not my accent?” 

 The boy seemed to blush a little at that before he coughed awkwardly. Marinette took pity on him and giggled.

 “You are correct in your deduction mr.detective. I’m visiting from Paris, France with some friends and my uncle.” 

 If Marinette hadn’t been too embarrassed to look him in the eyes she may have noticed the spark of curiosity when she mentioned Paris. And had she known who Damian truly was at the time she would have known that his curiosity came from the fact that Batman and the other supers had recently learned about the situation in Paris thanks to Lois Lane taking on a new intern who ran the Ladyblog. Mayor Bourgeois had been doing a good job hiding the situation but he’d overlooked the civilian journalist. 

 “Hm. We don’t get many tourists. What brought you all the way out here. If I may ask.” 

 Naturally without much thought the pair began to walk through the park together as their conversation flowed. Marinette avoided using Jagged's name not wanting her new very handsome friend to take an interest in her solely for her connections. Instead she told him that Gotham was her uncles hometown and that this was the last stop on what had already been a pretty busy summer vacation. That turned into her telling him a bit about her family in general which got him talking about his family, he complained about his adopted siblings of which there seemed to be many but Marinette could tell he loved them. 

 Talking about family made him admit he’d come to the park to get away from them for a little while which got Marinette talking about the park and all the beautiful nature in Gotham which got the two of them talking about the best parks in Gotham and then Marinette brought up her sketches and suddenly they were talking about art and other hobbies. Before they had even realized it they were sitting at a bench together hidden away in the trees and wisterias chatting away. Marinette didn’t know why but something about Damian made her feel comfortable. Maybe it was the way he gave her his full undivided attention, maybe it was the way he made sure not to invade her space without consent or how he didn’t interrupt her when she spoke. Either way she felt safe, felt warm, almost like she was home. And judging by the way he seemed to relax the longer they spoke, his stiff body unwinding and his gaze softening, she thought maybe he felt just as comfortable with her as she was with him.

 Honestly Marinette could have sat there chatting with Damian all day in fact it had already been several hours when the pair were finally interrupted. Both of their phones began to ring, Marinette’s with the tell-tale alarm of an akuma attack in Paris and Damian’s with an emergency as the Riddler had broken out of Arkham. The teenagers regretfully had to go both citing emergencies before they departed. It wasn’t until later that they realized they had forgotten to exchange phone numbers.

 The akuma back in Paris had turned out to be Lila Rossi, it seems that Adrien’s fangirls had never truly warmed up to the liar and they had been trying to dig up dirt on the girl for months before finally finding there evidence. Alya may have privated the videos of Lila’s lies after finding out about the ‘lying disease’ but apparently someone had copied and saved them beforehand. And those videos had finally made their way out into the public. Luckily no one criticized Alya seeing as how she’d already had the common sense to remove the videos from her blog it helped that Alya also made a post explaining the situation in more detail which led to the general public agreeing that it had not been Alya’s fault when she had a teacher and a principle telling her to believe in a fake ‘lying disease’ clearly it was the adults at fault here not the young girl who had believed in them. 

 Needless to say the public ripped Lila to shreds for being a serial liar with more of her lies coming to light each day now that she had been exposed. And obviously the Italian had not taken it well and gotten akumatized.

 Marinette knew that she should be happy that Lila had been exposed. Her classmates certainly were, but instead Marinette could not help but mope. Damian had been SO kind she really had wanted to get to know him better. The fact she’d completely missed out on getting his number gnawed at her. Little did she know that Damian was across the city thinking the same thing as he sat on a Gargoyle statue. 

 But fate likes to play funny games. A few days later Jagged got a call from Bruce Wayne, a few of his sons namely Tim, Jason and Dick had heard about Jagged being in town and tjat the rocker had brought MDC the famous designer with him. Apparently they were huge fans and had bugged, pleaded, whined, and eventually threatened a hunger strike until Bruce would ask Jagged to pretty please introduce them. So Jagged got the go ahead from Marinette and the gaggle of teenagers plus Jagged and Penny piled into a big van and drove over to the Wayne mansion.

 Seeing it from the outside, Marinette felt only intimidation and dread. It was so huge and they were so rich. What if they were unimpressed when they found out MDC was just some teenage girl? Letting Jagged guide her and her friends push her forward Marinette nervously knocked on the door and let herself be led inside by the kind old man who introduced himself as Alfred.

 Walking through the halls in wonder Marinette slowly felt her fingers twitch with the urge to design. But she suppressed it and focused not wanting to be rude. As the group turned a corner into a large sitting room Marinette’s blue eyes somehow found a pair of familiar green. She gasped, he blinked wide eyed.

 “Marinette?” - “Damian?” 

 They blinked again, shocked. Marinette eventually snorted and laughed. Damian found himself smiling as he approached the small girl. And everyone else? Well they were just confused. Except for Damian’s family they were confused and freaked out. 

 “Is the demon spawn, smiling Dicky bird? Or am I hallucinating?”

 “No I see it too Jason. He looks genuinely happy.”

 “So it's official.” Tim added “we're all hallucinating.”

 After some introductions and explanations things settled down with Marinette happy to take the Wayne’s on as clients. And the Wayne’s in turn being suitably impressed and amazed by the young girls accomplishments though the part they found most amazing was how she interacted with not only them but Damian. She was genuine and kind, no fake smiles or hidden double meanings, nor did she let their money and fame impress or blind her in any way. Jason soon declared her a little sister and Jagged preened and puffed as he gloated about not only Marinette but Kitty Section as well. 

 The rest of the summer spent in Gotham was tons of fun with Jason teaching Juleka and Marinette how to shoot guns and ride motorcycles, Rose and Marinette learning some of Dick’s gymnastics moves, Ivan meanwhile got along well with the quiet Cass and level headed Duke. Eventually Stephanie and Bab’s returned home as well and they also took to the french teens with ease they organized girl nights where they taught the girls how to break and enter something Marinette had a natural affinity for go figure. The most surprising development however was Luka. The slightly older boy had seemingly set his sights on the awkward coffee addicted Tim and had spent the remainder of the summer wooing him. 

 But while Luka was wooing Tim there was one other couple slowly forming. Everyone had seen the spark between Damian and Marinette and soon enough everyone was shipping it. The pair were often ‘conveniently’ left alone or were sent on errands that somehow conveniently became accidental dates. Marinette had been guarding her heart after Adrien had shattered it but Damian made her want to take the risk and fall in love. He was charming, polite, kind, sarcastic, and as she’d learned after telling him about the entire Paris situation akuma’s and all he was protective but without going so far as to undermine Marinette’s strength. He trusted her to be fast and smart and strong enough to defend herself (especially after they did a bit of fight training for fun and she laid him flat on the ground) but he did worry and care about her.

 But still there was something holding back both teens. Something that shattered near the end of the vacation. Marinette had been caught by a villain. Poison Ivy to be exact. The plant villainess had taken note of the new frequent visitor to her greenhouse but what had really gotten her attention was how the plant life reacted to her. And furthermore how the plant life SPOKE about her. Ivy’s curiosity eventually grew too large and so she snatched up the young designer and brought her home. Luckily Marinette wasn’t particularly scared of Ivy or Harley, sure she didn’t like being knocked out but she felt no real fear, in the end Ivy, Harley and Marinette ended up having an unprompted girls day complete with junk food, ranting, bad American tv and more. Ivy eventually figured that Marinette was some kind of Meta one who had a strong influence over plant and animal life and that was enough for her to adopt the small half Asian girl and inject her with her special blend the same one she’d given to Harley to keep her safe in a town full of crazies.

 But while Marinette was perfectly fine hanging out with 2 of the 3 sirens Damian had not taken it so well. He had scoured the city trying to find the sirens newest abode all while he gnawed his lip until it bled. Maybe it was the stress that made him slip up or maybe it was just Marinette being too smart for her own good. But when the young Robin came bursting in through a window yelling Marinette’s name something had immediately clicked and she knew who he was. After she’d calmed the situation down and made sure no one fought anyone else, Marinette thanked Ivy and Harley for the nice day and let Robin carry her away. After talking with Tikki and deciding to be reckless and selfish for once in her life Marinette confronted Damian the next day, revealing her own identity in the process. There was some freaking out and a LOT of talking with Tikki and the rest of the bat clan but in the end it seemed to work out for the best. Ladybug was certainly happy to accept the help anyway even if Chat Noir wasn’t going to be.

 A week later Damian finally asked Marinette out. Two days after that they shared their first kiss on the ferris wheel. And come the end of summer Marinette, Kitty Section and surprise guests Damian and Tim Wayne were all boarding a flight back to Paris.

Daminette December 2022: 3-Puppy

Marinette started to bundle up to go out into the Parisian Winter air. She already had her mittens and boots on.

'Scarf? Where is my scarf? Coat? Here they are! I wonder why Damian wanted to meet at the park instead of the bakery. He said he had my Christmas present with him. It better not be anything too big. Oh god, what did he get?'

"Maman, Papa, I'm gonna go to the park. Damian said he's over there." Marinette cried out.

"Well, tell him to come over!" Tom chuckled, "He shouldn't be standing out in the cold."

"Tell him he's welcome to spend Christmas with us." Sabine replied, "We don't want him spending it alone."

"I'll tell him!" Mari answered and rushed out the door.

Marinette easily spotted Damian and Titus amongst all the snow. Titus barked happily when he spotted her. She quickly pet Titus and kissed her boyfriend.

"Why did you want to meet me here? Maman and Papa said you could come inside. Oh, but Titus." she questioned, "Maybe, if we brought him through the side door it would be okay?"

"Titus is not your present, Habibiti." Damian chuckled.

Marinette looked at him confused. Then, she looked around the park, but they were the only ones there.

Damian smiled and unzipped his heavy coat. He stuck his hand in and brought out a fluffy black German Shepard puppy. Marinette stared at the puppy in shock.

"She is." Damian stated.

Marinette looked up to her boyfriend, only to get distracted by the tiny barks escaping the puppy. Mari reached out and grabbed the tiny dog.

"For me?" she questioned.

Damian smiled, "I'll have to bring her back to Gotham with me when I leave. I'll train her. She'll know how to protect you when you move."

Titus sniffed the tiny fluff in his second owner's arms and stood up to get a better look. Unfortunately, he tried to use Marinette as leverage, making all three of them fall into the snow.

"Titus!" Damian shouted, "Get off of Angel, right now!"

Marinette just laughed, "It seems Titus is happy to have a sibling. You surprised us both."

Damian helped Marinette up and they looked to see Titus sniffing the new puppy. The puppy barked happily and jumped in the snow. Marinette giggled, before leaning down and picked up the fluffy black puppy. It started to lick her face, excitedly, making her giggle.

"Don't be to hard on the pup." Marinette expressed.

"You still have to name her." he stated.

Marinette looked at the fluffy black German Shepard and smiled, "Thana."

The guy smirked, "Yes; a lovely name for her." as he petted the puppy's head.

'Anyone who dares to touch my angel will fear Death.'

"Can I show Maman and Papa?" Marinette questioned, excitedly.

"You may show them through the window." Damian explained, "I do not wish to be the reason they get a health code violation.

Marinette cuddled the puppy a bit longer, "I'll miss her so much when you take her."

"Perhaps your parents will let you visit her during Spring Break." he suggested, "I do not have a problem with paying for your flight." as he pulled a harness out from one of his pockets.

With Thana secure, Marinette set her back down. She quickly rushed to Titus' side.

"I don’t know if they will let me this time." Mari answered, "You're already stealing me away from them during the summer. I think they might want to spend a little bit more time with me."

Although he wasn't satisfied with the answer, he understood.

"That does sound reasonable." he stated, "Then until this summer, but I will send you pictures of Thana."

Marinette smiled happily, "Thank you for my Christmas gift, Habibi. I love her!"

"Titus, follow." he commanded.

The large dog followed him obediently. Thana was quick to follow the older dog and tried to remain in step next to it. Marinette grabbed onto Damian's arm as they led the dogs out of the park.

Marinette quickly sent a text to her mother, asking if they could come outside for a moment. Tom and Sabine were quick to notice Damian and their daughter, but a tiny bark grabbed their attention.

"Oh, who is this cutie?" Tom asked.

"This is Thana." Marinette answered, "She is my present from Damian."

Tom glanced up at the boy.

"I will be taking them both to the hotel." He answered the unasked question, "They will be coming with me for a long walk before we return and I'll be taking her back to Gotham with me after the holidays."

"You don't want to come in?" Sabine questioned.

"I do not want to leave them by themselves." Damian declared, "Especially, the little one."

"We can bring them through the side door and seal the bakery." Sabine smiled, "A little bit of cleaning, before we open, wouldn't be much trouble."

Marinette smiled, "We'll be right in, Maman. I want to take a picture quick."

Marinette picked up Thana. Damian put his arm around her waist and held her phone out to capture the moment. Titus leaned against his owners, as the picture was taken. Marinette kept Thana in her arms as the went through the side door. Once they were seated, Damian suggested taking Thana to her room to get use to her scent. Titus laid down by the tv, near Tom, eyeing the stairs to Marinette's room.

"You can follow them if you want." Tom spoke, "There's nothing bad up there; just her room."

Titus closed his eyes and let himself rest. He could feel this was a safe space for his owners.

Marinette quickly posted the picture to her social media.

"Merry Christmas to me! My amazing boyfriend got me this cute little puppy!"

She was too focused on Thana, not destroying her designs, that she never noticed her phone still had notifications turned on silent. Damian had dinner with the Dupain-Chengs and then decided it was best to take the dogs on a walk before taking them to eat dinner back in the hotel. Marinette yawned, as she got ready for bed.

'Oh, I need to put my phone to charge!'

When she turned it on, she hadn't expected to see a bunch of notifications from her post.

'Who is he?'

'Boyfriend?'

'Since when are you dating someone?'

'I thought you wanted a hamster!'

'Tell me the hottie isn't yours.'

Marinette pouted at the comment and decided it was best to answer them before bed. She didn't want people trying to barge their way in super early or have her phone go off at all hours for answers.

'Yes, the hottie is mine, Chloe.'

'I could never decide between wanting a dog, a cat, or a hamster. My boyfriend's family is big on dogs, but he owns multiple pets. I would likely lose the hamster in his home.'

'What's going to happen to the puppy?'

'Yeah? I thought your place was an animal free zone.'

'He'll be taking her back home and I'll go see her in the summer.'

'You're not really a good owner, are you?'

'Uh, it had to be her.'

'Puppies get separation anxiety. What happens if you break up? He'll stick her in the pound! How can you be so cruel!'

'How dare you! You don't know my boyfriend! He happens to be an animal activists, works in animal shelters, is a vegetarian, and he'll be training her to be a guard dog, just like his!'

'A guard dog?'

'Why a guard dog?'

'omg is he like in the mafia? That's super dangerous! You could be hurt! I was just trying to be a good friend!!!!!'

'Lila, we have NEVER been friends and we NEVER will be! We graduate soon so stop pretending to be thinking about what's "best for me" or on how "we'll be friend someday. mArInEtTe JuSt HaS tO sEe Im A gOoD pErSoN & gEt OvEr HeR jeAlOuSy". I'M NOT JEALOUS OF YOU!!! You are a toxic person and a liar! Anything you say can be disproven by using Google!'

'As for a guard dog, I'll be moving out of Paris and to the USA, with my boyfriend, after graduation. I'll be living at his family's home.'

Marinette turned off her phone and left a note in the kitchen for her parents: I don't care who it is, unless it's Damian with the dogs, I don't want to see anyone! I have not invited anyone over. I do not have any gifts for anyone and no one is allowed into my room without my permission. Right now, no one from school is allowed! I'm not babysitting anyone's siblings and I don’t have plans.

Marinette had blocked Lila on her social media and set it private. She had also added 'Lila' and 'Lila Rossi' to her banned words. If anyone from the class tried to say anything, she was clueless. Marinette assumed Lila was probably crying to everyone else on how "rude" she was or how "she didn't mean anything by it. She was just concerned."

Mari walked into class with a smile on her face. Lila was sobbing, but she didn't care. Adrien walked up to her, as other continued to console the attention seeker.

"Hey, Marinette." he spoke, "Um, some of the class showed me your post. Oh, congradulations on the boyfriend and puppy."

"Thank you, Adrien." she smiled.

'And here it comes.'

"Don’t you think you were a little too rude to Lila?" he asked.

"Adrien" Marinette smiled, "I'm tired of people, like you, trying to force me to be friends with someone I don’t like."

Marinette notice Adrien flinch, but continued, "I hate liars more than anything. I have reached the point where I don’t care that you believe her; I will laugh when you realize how big of a liar she really is. I will never like her or be friends with her. You all forced me to add her to my accounts, even after she claimed I was cyber bullying her. You can say all the shit you want about me, you little bitch, but you insult my boyfriend and I won't hold back! That night, I blocked her and made my accounts private. If anyone from the class decides to try and force me to talk with her, I will also block and mute them."

Adrien lowed his head.

Marinette leaned it, "Perhaps, you should talk to your father's model about keeping silent. If I hear her talk shit about my boyfriend, I have Jagged on speed dial and I will get him to sue her. That will throw all the lies she talked about her tinnitus, the fake cat, and all her missed school into question. I wonder how much jail time she would get for truancy, claiming to have royalties, and a disability. If her mother were to find out, I wonder what else she would learn about when she comes to the school. Maybe she'll have to be held back. Enjoy your high road."

Adrien paled, as Marinette sat down. Lila immediatley latched onto him.

"You believe me, right, Adrien?" the liar questioned.

"Of course, Lila." he answered.

As everyone took their seat, he quickly slipped her a note. Lila smiled, thinking she had won. Adrien had chosen her. She still wasn't sure if that guy was dating Marinette or trying to use him to make Adrien jealous.

'Marinette knows Jagged Stone, personally. She says if you talk about her boyfriend any more, she'll ask him to sue you about your fake tinnitus. Everything else will crumble.'

Lila turned and looked towards Marinette. Marinette was smiling, at her. It looked like one of her smiles. She could see it on her face.

Checkmate.

Marinette continued to ignore everything that Lila said in class and Lila kept her mouth shut about Marinette's boyfriend. She never dared to bring up Marinette's social medias again.

Marinette smiled as she laid in Damian's arms in the living room. Titus and Thana laid curled up by their feet, with Alfred the cat curled up on the armrest.

"What are you doing?" he asked.

"A bit of payback." she answered, "I created all new social medias so this will be my last post from my Paris account. I'll delete the account tomorrow. Anyone worth keeping was already added to my other accounts."

"What are you posting?" he questioned.

Mari turned her phone around and showed him the picture that was taken the day she moved in. The Waynes had insisted of takign her picture with them and the dogs to welcome her to the manor. During the photo, Damian had dropped to his knee and proposed. The picture had perfectly captured her shocked face and the Waynes' smiling faces. Even the dogs had been excited.

"Chaotic." he spoke, kissing her cheek, "Post it."

Marinette posted the picture and put: I got welcomed into the household and the family. Damian was quick to comment: Goodbye Ms. Dupain-Cheng. Hello Mrs. Wayne. Marinette turned to him, blushing.

"It's true, is it not?" he smirked.

"Yes, Habibi." Marinette smiled before leaning over and kissing her fiancée.

Lila snarled seeing Marinette's name was trending and she didn't know why until she clicked on someone else's post. Marinette was tagged with the Wayne family. She quickly followed them to see what was going on. Then she saw it; that guy from her Christmas post proposed to her and he was a Wayne. Marinette had hid the fact that she was dating a Wayne from all of them. The Waynes were wealthier than the Agreste. Adrien hadn't even looked her way since Marinette left and he had been spending all his time with the fencer. The only time she saw him was at photoshoots and even now those were becoming scarce. It got worse when the Wayne had announced Marinette as ZAHR, their new designer. Lila quickly clicked on the video under the announcement.

Marinette smiled to the camera, "I am very grateful to the Wayne family for not only welcoming me into their family, but also Wayne Enterprise. I have always wanted to be a fashion designer; Gabriel Agreste inspired me to be who I am today. Please, don't think I'll only be catering to the wealthy. I will be making MW a household name brand. ZAHR will cater to my personal clients; like my unofficial uncle, Jagged Stone."

Soon, Gabriel Agreste and Jagged Stone's name was trending alongside hers.

'Fuck! Fuck! Fuck! It's okay. It'll be okay. She was the only fashion nut in the class. Adrien wouldn't rat me out. They'll never figure out I lied to them.'

About two minutes later her phone started blowing up.

'You said you knew ZAHR!'

'You're really dating ZAHR? I didn't know you liked Marinette that way!'

'You lied to us!'

'Did you really order a dress for me?'

'Why did you say Marinette was a guy?'

'Why did you say that you personally helped with the designs?'

'What happened to the money I gave you?'

'Marinette said she never wanted to be your friend!'

'No wonder she called you a toxic person!

'How could you lie and say that you were going to meet ZAHR in Milan this weekend?'

'I'm pretty sure you're not Marinette's type.'

'Marinette blocked my number!'

'Her number has been disconnected!'

'I don’t have the money to travel to Gotham!'

'I can't believe you!'

'Liar!'

'Fake!'

'We should have listened to Marinette!'

'What else did you lie about?'

'I never should have said anything about the stupid puppy.'

I have a prompt idea! So a rich kid transfers into DuPont who is the son of the prime minister or something. He can be bratty like Chloe and deceitful like Lila. The first thing he does is put Chloe in her place since her dad can’t do anything to him and exposes Lila as the liar she is with the help from his connections.But here’s the kicker, he has a massive crush on Marinette. But she has a massive crush on Adrien, someone he looks down on. Cue jealousy and retribution. Basically Adrien gaining an antagonist of his own because if he can have FOUR girls getting into a cat fight of her (two of whom are nasty bullies) then Marinette can have her own evil love interest. Bonus points if he is beginning to endear to Marinette after standing up to her bullies.

Remy Gusteau

Can you guess where I got his name? But I imagine him to look like Draco Malfoy if he has to keep saying “My father….” Lol

Your prompt is the first in a long while that has given my that old flair of imagination :D Thank you. Also, for anyone else who wants to send me a prompt, note I have not watched the latest season yet as I am waiting for all episodes to air first. So no spoilers please.

The only reason Remy even agreed to go to Paris after the rise of Hawkmoth was because it was the capital of gastronomy.

Even so, he refused to stay as a guest at the Le Grand Paris. There is no way he is staying in the same hotel as that bully Chloe. Honestly why Ladybug even let her remain a hero after she purposefully endangered a train full of Parisians is beyond him. And ever since he saw her purposefully sabotage a cooking show, he has been asking his father why her father was even still mayor if he could not even raise his daughter properly.

Even so, the mayor personally welcomed Remy at the airport.

Mayor: my daughter attends Dupont too, she can be your tour guide.

Remy: I certainly hope she learned to improve her personality. It doesn’t look good on France if the mayor of our capital has a bully for a daughter.

The mayor paled at the threat. “Of course she has improved. Why else would Ladybug give her a miraculous again?”

Remy: I guess we’ll see.

Later that night, Andre begged his daughter to be on her best behavior because otherwise, it might cost him his job.

Naturally Chloe was appalled. She started to protest when even her mother agreed with Andre. “It would never do for my darling to lose his job. All Chloe has to do is act nice in front of the prime minister’s boy, right? That’s easy to do. Chloe, if you can’t handle even this much, ask your sister for advice.”

The next day Chloe went out of her way to greet Remy and did not even give Sabrina orders…only to be ignored by Remy.

Ugh. Who did he think he is?

Sabrina: Um, the prime minister’s son?

The only seat left available was next to Ivan, right in front of Lila.

As Caline told Remy that Marinette would be his tour guide, Lila volunteered instead.

Lila: Oh, I can do it. As the ambassador’s daughter, I’m sure Marinette would has a lot to do anyway.

Marinette scowled at Lila. And she wasn’t the only one.

Remy himself was not happy. He recognised Marinette because of her parents and uncle. He had actually been looking forward to discuss recipes with her. Why did that nobody have to butt in?

Well that nobody was Lila, and clearly she never heard of personal space. For someone supposed to be giving a tour of the classrooms and teachers, she sure talked a lot about herself instead.

Don’t tell him that everybody actually indulged her like this?

Later that day, after class ended, he asked Caline why she does not try reining in Lila’s tall tales.

Caline: Lila has a special disease. She didn’t want her classmates to see her differently because of it.

Remy stared cooly at this dumb woman. “Hmm. Do you know something, I’ve heard the other students tell me I was in the akuma class. I thought perhaps it might be due to Chloe but perhaps you have something to do with it too. I wonder if I should ask my father to bring an inspector here.”

Caline: If you think it’s needed. I have only ever encouraged my students to forgive each other.

Remy: right, which is why you never told your class they were being lied to by Lila and denied them the chance to forgive her.

True to his word, Remy did bring an inspector around, and was he thorough! Marinette’s previous expulsion case was brought up and both Damocles and Caline were fired for mishandling the case. Remy even forced them to apologize to Marinette. Some, including Adrien, might protest this was harsh, but Remy drily pointed out that Caline’s method of forgiving bullies without punishing them was called enabling. Did she expect them to forgive Hawkmoth too? And Damocles is not supposed to turn school property into some cheap owl cave, nor punish the school for Chloe’s misdeeds. They were like children in the bodies of adults.

Oh, and Lila was exposed too. She had to confess her special ability to the whole school, outing her as someone who likes to tell tall tales.

Understandably, akumas appeared. Curiously though, they never got much chance to cause chaos. Mainly because the no-nonsense inspector and Remy struck them in the head once the transformation had finished, giving them no time to react, and proceeded to keep hitting them till they passed out.

Everyone stared at them.

Remy: What? The miraculous cure will fix everything.

And Remy finally got to discuss baking with Marinette! He just didn’t understand why she was so fixated on Adrien Agreste. The model reminded Remy of Caline, always about forgiving bullies. Spoken like someone who has never been bullied himself!

He just has to help Marinette see that Adrien isn’t worth her time. Some planned situations to show how useless the boy is. Good thing he has the mayor’s daughter at his beck and call. And he just knows she is dying to be mean again.

====================================================================================

Chapter Seventy-Five: Triplets of Terror

~Felix Sr's House~

Felix Sr stared at his sister in law as Bridgette handed her a cup of tea before giving one to him. He turned his attention to her and smiled lightly at her before pecking her cheek. She smiled back before clearly her throat. The Atmosphere was so thick it could be cut with a knife and it made her uncomfortable. She was glad that Felix Jr was out with his friends and cousin. Not that Amelie needed to know that. She would probably tell Adrien's father and the poor boy would be punished for trying to be normal. 

"Um... I'm going to go into my studio," She declared, causing Felix to nod. "Give me a yell if you need anything,"

With that, she quickly left the room. Amelie barely touched her tea as Felix sipped his.

"So what do you need to talk about?"

"A black swan themed hero apparently appeared in the battle against the latest akuma today," She stated, making him raise an eyebrow. "Care to explain?"

"And why would I have anything to explain?"

"I know it was you!" She gasped, standing up. "Oh god, Felix! Why?! You swore you'd never use magic again!"

"You know full well that it isn't something I can switch off, Amelie!" He declared back. "And what was I meant to do?! Let Hawkmoth win?"

"You were not meant to be involved!" She gasped, slamming her fist down before pinching her nose. "Felix, have you... fully returned?"

"I never truly left, Amelie," He replied, making her frown. "Whenever we like it or not, Colt bestowed me the title of Acting Grand Mage of Paris before he died. I never chose a successor when I walked away which was something I shouldn't have done. Hawkmoth is a threat to the magical community as well as the human one and it is my duty as both a miraculous holder and the acting grand mage to help the heroes stop him,"

"You don't understand what you are getting involved in!" She gasped, making him look at her. "Felix, I understand why you are doing what you are doing but if you keep going down this path, we will become enemies. I don't want that. You're my family for crying out loud. My son is your nephew,"

"What do you mean by enemies?" He asked, narrowing his eyes. Amilie went quiet and sat down, sipping her tea. "Amelie?"

"... Gabriel has reactivated the group..." She stated, making Felix narrow her eyes. "Oh don't give me that look again! We have a good reason to be activate again,"

"Your little cult is the reason why my brother is dead!" He snarled, making her gasp. "And yet you run back to them like they didn't kill him?!"

"It's not like that!" She gasped, tears in her eyes. "I have my duty as a member of one of the founding family and we can get Colt back!"

"By obtaining the miraculous of the heroes and using the wish?!" He roared, making her gasp. "I will not do that!"

"No! Of course not!" She gasped, making him glare at her. "But if you were to join us-"

"Never!"

"Felix, please just listen!" She gasped, making him look at her. "I know you have your issues but we are so close-"

"You're insane!"

"Felix, the mage is back!" She declared, grabbing his hands as he stared at her in shock. "The Celescial guardian Su Han confirmed it. We're searching for him but me and you could team up together with Gabriel and use the rest to find him then we can have him bring back Colt and Emile. We'll be a family again!"

"Amelie! Listen to yourself!" He gasped, pulling away from her. "No one can bring back the dead not even Feng or his reincarnations! Colt is gone and we both know Emile was to blame! Why on earth would you want to bring her back?!"

"She's my sister!"

"She's a leech who constantly tried to outshine you!" He shouted before grabbing her shoulders. "Amelie, listen to me. This is not going to bring you happiness. Gabriel is not going to help you. The moment you lose any use to him, he will drop you like a ton of bricks,"

"Felix, this could be our only chance to bring back our family!"

"Amelie, they are dead!" He declared, making her look at him with horror as he pinched her nose. "Yes, I miss my brother dearly but he is dead. I grieved and I had to move on. You need to move on as well. It is not healthy for you or your son!"

"I am doing this for my son!" She screamed. "I thought you would understand but you're still as cold as ever!"

"I do understand!" He shouted back. "I understand that you are thinking about yourself and only yourself so don't you dare pretend that it's for Felix when it's clearly not!"

"How dare you?!" She screamed. "I am his mother!"

"Then act like it!" He shouted back, shocking her. "Instead of running off and galvanting with a crazed cult, maybe try been there for your son! Did you know he has made so much progress in school? Full A grades and that he has taken up fencing! You haven't even asked how he is for crying out loud!"

Amelie glanced to the side but didn't even mention Felix Jr.

"Amelie, you are missing out on Felix's life," He stated, pinching his nose. "You are missing out on him growing up and one day, it will be too late. He won't want anything to do with you,"

"I am doing this for him!" She declared again. "So he can have his father and aunt back! So we can be a family again. If that means that I have to be a little distance for a while then so be it! Besides, he has you! I leave him in your care!"

With that, she turned on her heel  not willing to listen to Felix Sr's points any father before she stopped.

"We may be enemies now, brother in law but I trust my son in your care so you so much as harm him-"

"I would never think to harm him," He replied back. "I'm not Gabriel after all,"

She huffed and left the house, making him sigh and shake his head. He walked over to the table and began to clear away the tea set. He picked up Amelie's cup and glanced at the tea leaves inside it. Toward the edge where she had been drinking, the tea leaves had formed the shape of a knife, making him frown.

"Oh, my dear sister in law," He muttered, looking at the other symbols in the tea cup. A fox glared up at him and an hour glass settled between them. "Whatever you're doing, it is not going to benefit you at all,"

~A Couple of Days later at the Liberty~

"Ah I'm so excited!" Snapp gasped, zooming around as Luka watched in amusement. The little crocodile kwami had been extremely quiet at first but once he had settled in, Snapp went from shy to full on hyperactive. Luka didn't blame him though. He had been forced to be submissive for so long. "I haven't been allowed out like this ever before! You're a great master! Ooh!! What's this?!"

"That is my guitar," Luka replied as Snapp checked out his reflection in the metal plate. "And I'm not your master. I'm your friend,"

"Shiny!!" He grinned before zooming back up to Luka. "My friend?! Yay! I haven't had a friend in years! Oh can you be my holder?! We'd make such a good team!"

"Sadly, I can't," Luka replied, making the little crocodile pout. "I'm already a holder of a miraculous but I promise that if I need your help, I'll get you a holder who will respect you,"

"Aww!! You're the best!" Snapp grinned before it occurred to him what Luka had said. "Wait you said you're already a holder?! How come I didn't notice? And which one is it?!"

"The Ladybug," Luka grinned as Tikki came out from his hoodie pocket, making Snapp squeal in delight and scream her name. "And probably because you were getting use to been here,"

"Ah!! I'm so happy!!" Snapp declared, spinning her around as he turned his attention back to Luka. "I can't believe that I got to see Tikki again!! Thank you!!"

"You're welcome," Luka replied as his phone vibrated. "Ah, I do have to go to school. Can I trust you to stay here and not misbehave?"

"Can I come with you please?!" Snapp begged with big eyes. Both Luka and Tikki looked unsure. "Pretty please? I'll be super good and won't make a peep,"

"It's not that, Snapp," Tikki replied, frowning. "Luka would have to wear both miraculous so you could fly around like he is now but it will tire him out,"

"Oh," Snapp replied, frowning a little before looking up at Luka. "I'm sorry I didn't think of that,"

"That's ok, Snapp," He replied, gently picking up the kwami in his hands before looking at Tikki. "And I really don't feel that tired,"

"Maybe not now but if you have to transform, it could occur then," She pointed out, making him frown a little. "But maybe you could allow him to stay outside the miraculous. You might not be the Celestial guardian yet but you are Feng's most recent incarnation after all. That's gotta count for something,"

"Tikki, you mean he's...?" Snapp asked, getting a nod before looking at Luka and bowing. "I'm sorry! I didn't realize you were Master Feng's recent life! If I had known, I would have been more respectful,"

"Hey, none of that," Luka replied, making Snapp look at him. "I might be the most recent incarnation but I'm your friend first and foremost ok? So we don't need that respect stuff. Just be yourself ok?"

"O-ok," Snapp replied, blinking before Luka touched his miraculous and closed his eyes. His aura glowed golden a little as he focused a little on the miraculous itself.

"I, Luka Couffaine, give Snapp the Kwami of Immerison permission to remain outside of his miraculous even without a holder or miracle box," He declared, causing the necklace and Snapp to glow golden as well before it faded away. "Let's see if this worked. Snapp, I renounce your miraculous,"

Snapp closed his eyes as he took off the necklace but he didn't feel himself disappear. He opened his eyes and found that he was still inside Luka's room, causing him to zoom around happily.

"It worked!" He declared before hugging Luka's cheek. "Thank you!!"

"Now you can come with us without worrying about me getting tired," Luka smiled as Snapp squealed before he crossed his arms. "But I do have some rules I need you to follow ok?"

"Anything, mighty mage!"

"Luka's just fine," He replied, making Snapp nod. "Ok, first thing is you must stick with me and Tikki ok? No going off on your own and exploring. If you want to explore, let me know and Tikki can go with you. If you do decide to, please avoid cameras and anyone seeing you. Don't eat food that is left on the table no matter what and finally, if you get hungry, don't worry about eating. I always have cookies on me so you can help yourself to them and if you're not happy with those, I can get your favorite food. Sound good?"

"Yep!" Snapp replied, making Luka smile a little. "You're so amazing, Might- I mean Luka,"

"Well, I think you're amazing too," Luka smiled, causing the little kwami to giggle shyly. Snapp flew over to him and settled on his shoulder, making Luka smile.

"Ooh, you mentioned that if you need my help, you'll find me a holder!" He gasped excitedly. "Does this mean I will get a new holder? When?"

"Well, it depends on if and when I'll need your help.. though it might be worth not waiting for the situation to occur. Having allies ready to jump in could be beneficial," Luka replied as he grabbed his school bag. "I will look for someone to work with you but there's no rush right now. When you feel ready, we'll discuss what traits you want in a partner so we can find a good match,"

"Yay!!"

~Later that morning in Mrs Mendeleiev's class~

"Everyone, listen up!" Mrs Mendeleiev declared as she clapped her hands. Luka glanced up from his notepad as the rest of the class faced her. "On Monday next week, we will be partaking in a sports day with our sister school, Ermitage High. We will be-"

!!Brrzz??

"Going to the stadium," Mrs Mendeliev continued as Luka listened but the more she talked the harder it got to focus. Slowly, her voice turned to white noise and his mind began to pound. It was a similar feeling to when he got near the miraculous in New York or when he had visions. He gripped his head as it got worst before looking up to see Mrs Medeleiev staring at him. "Luka? Is something wrong?"

"I feel really light headed," He mumbled, making her frown but nod.

"Go to the nurse's office," She replied, making him nod and get his things. He headed to the door but she called his name, making him look at her. "The Truth is coming,"

"W-What?" He question but she frowned.

"I said I'll get Marc or Kagami to bring you the notes for the lesson," She replied, making him frown but nod again. He must have misheard her. He stumbled out of the room and down the corridor as his headache got increasing worst, along with the sound of the white noise. Tikki pressed her paw against his chest as he made it to the nurse's office and knocked on the door. She opened it and ushered him in. He explained the situation as best as he could, causing her to nod and let him lie down on the medical bed as she phoned the captain. He curled up and closed his eyes as he tried to relax but it was hard to when it feel like his skull was been pulled apart.

"Luka, your mom is on her way," The nurse informed, making him nod. "I've got some water for you and the Truth is coming,"

"W-what?" He asked, looking up at her as she held out a cup of water and pain killers. He took them and drunk the water. "What did you mean by that?"

"By what?" She asked, making him frown. Did he mishear her too? He must off. "Luka?"

"I-it's nothing," He mumbled, lying back down. He closed his eyes but he was certain that she had said the same thing as Mrs Mandeveil. The Truth is coming? What on earth did that mean? He rolled onto his side and glanced out of the window. Tikki pressed her paw to his chest and Snapp gently rested his head against his shoulder, making Luka feel a bit more relaxed. He'll try and get some answers from Feng soon. It had been a while since he had seen him. Not long after his mom came in and took him home, which he was grateful for. He didn't have the energy to face the rest of the school day. The head ache had really drained him off his energy. In fact, he just rested. Snapp and Tikki kept an eye on him as he slept as they were worried for him but nothing out of the ordariary happened. However, they hid when they heard the sound of footsteps coming towards his room. The person stopped outside his door before they knocked on it, waking him up.

"Come in," He mumbled sleepily as he rubbed his eyes. The door opened and Felix walked in. "Felix?"

"Kagami had fencing after school and Marc had to go straight open so I offered to bring any work to you," He replied, glancing around. "Quite the home,"

"Oh, yeah," Luka replied, stretching as he realized Felix hadn't really been on the boat properly before. "Bit different to what you're use to?"

"Certainly," He replied, glancing around. "Mother's home is... far from this but Uncle's home isn't far from this to be honest. Aunt Bridgette is a creative type and of course then there's uncle's crystals and books,"

"Crystals?" Luka asked, not expecting Felix Sr to be interested in them. He wondered if he knew their magical properties. 

"Oh yes," Felix nodded. "It's one of the many things Gabriel can't stand about Uncle Felix. He's a practitioner of Wicca and naturally Gabriel believes it to be devil worship. Of course, Uncle is not a devil worshipper. He's just in touch with the universe or at least that's what he says. I'm not sure if I believe any of it but each to their own,"

"The universe works in very mysterious ways," Luka replied before mumbling under his breathe. "I should know,"

"Hm?"

"Oh, nothing," He replied, shaking his head. "So what did I miss?"

"Not much," He replied, shrugging and sitting on the edge of the bed. "Lila lied again but that's nothing new. I really don't understand why she keeps doing it. Everyone in the school basically knows at this point,"

"Old habits die hard,"

"Hmm you do have a point there," Felix replied before clicking his fingers. "Ah yes. We have a sports day event thing with our sister school next Wednesday. All the classes will be attending and we''ll be racing and that. Personally I don't think it's a good idea with an terrorist that takes advantage of emotions around but hey, Anatis and Lady Noire will clear it up and save the day,"

"That sounds like sarcasm,"

"It was," Felix replied. "I feel sorry for Anatis and Lady Noire,"

"Oh?"

"Paris constantly relies on them to sort out their problems with Hawkmoth yet none of the government try to prevent him or offer things like therapy to the citizens to help relieve the pressure that Anatis and Lady Noire feel," He sighed, making Luka frown. He had never thought about it but maybe Felix had a point. It would have to be another thing to look into. He hissed slightly as he felt a pulse from his brain again, making Felix look over with concern. "Are you ok?"

"Head hurts," He mumbled, making Felix frown. "I'm ok but it's a side effect from been almost akumatized three times,"

"Ah," Felix replied, nodding. "Well, I'll leave you to rest then,"

"You don't have to," Luka replied, switching on his tv. "It's not as bad as it was,"

"I see," He replied, sitting down on the bed. "Could I ask a favor?"

"Sure,"

"Could you take notes for me in the morning?" Felix asked, making Luka look at him. "I have an appointment with my therapist,"

"Ah," Luka replied, nodding. "If I'm in, sure. If not, I'll ask Marc,"

"Thank you," Felix replied, getting up and looking at some of the things on Luka's desk. He picked up his amber amulet, raising an eyebrow. "Amber hm? Uncle says it's really good for protection against evil,"

"That's why I have it," Luka replied as Felix put it back. "Figured it might help with the akumas,"

"Does it?"

"Well, I've never been akumatized when wearing it," He replied, glancing at the TV. "Oh Aurora's on,"

"Ah, yes. I forgot she does TV," Felix replied, sitting down as Luka turned up the TV.

"Hi, everyone. Welcome to Kidz+," Aurora replied before she looked directly at the camera. However, Luka felt like that she was looking at him. "Today's show is Truth or Dare! The Truth is Coming!"

"W-What?" Luka gasped as the entire atmosphere of the room changed, almost getting darker.

"That's right, Luka," Aurora said, looking at him as she transformed into her akuma self. "Today's forecast is Truth and he's coming for you!"

Luka felt the blood in his veins, freeze as Stormy Weather grinned wickedly.

"The Truth will set you free, Luka," She declared, smirking evilly. "But not until he's finished with you,"

Luka stared in horror at the TV as she laughed manically before the program flickered and he saw a bright green eye looking at him before it flicked back as Felix shook him. He looked at him with a look of pure terror, causing him to worry.

"Luka, are you ok?" He asked, frowning. "You look like you just saw a ghost,"

"Y-You did hear or see any of that?" He asked, looking back at the TV. Aurora was smiling happily and in her human form. She had not been akumatized nor was there a green eyeball looking at him. In fact, the show she was hosting was about music. Nothing to do with dares or truths. 

"See what?"

"I... i think I haven't sleep enough," He gasped, running his fingers through his hair. "Sorry, Felix but i think I'm going to take a nap. I'm really tired,"

"Oh, that's fine," He replied, frowning slightly. "You will be ok right?"

"I'll be fine," Luka replied, making Felix nod. "Thank you for coming round,"

"It was no problem," Felix replied, getting up. "If you feel better, feel free to text me. I have no commitments this evening,"

"I'll see how I feel after my sleep," Luka replied, causing Felix to nod before he left. As soon as he did, Tikki and Snapp flew out. Luka looked over at them. "Can you keep an eye on me? I'm going to try and talk to Feng,"

"Ok," Tikki replied, causing Luka to nod and lie down. He closed his eyes and steadied his breathe until he felt the room around him change. He snapped open his eyes and sat up, looking around the hut but Feng wasn't there. He got up and walked into the main area.

"Feng?" He called out, looking around before looking at the door. Three of the locks were unlocked while two remained locked up. He walked over to the door. "Two more tests,"

"Indeed," Khnurn's voice echoed, causing him to turn around and raise an eyebrow. "Feng is kind of the busy right now and I sensed you here so i came to see if I could help,"

"Well... Did you ever experience anything weird when you were alive?"

"I am still alive,"

"Oh right," Luka replied, rubbing the back of his neck. "I forget that this time has no sense of time and that everyone here can co-exist despite been the same person,"

"Yes, I have those moments too," Khnurn replied, stretching. "As for your question, sometimes I get echoes,"

"Echoes?"

"Moments of the past and future that appears in the present," Khnurn replied. "Sometimes, they come as dreams. Other times, they happen during my waking hours. When I first had them, Feng explained that it's the echo of his own power. I am not naturally a prophet so I do not have visions on the same level as him nor can I control it like he can,"

"What is your power?"

"Mine? Did Feng not tell you?"

"Well, i know that you talk to Ra, your toad right?"

"Ra is my familiar but yes, I can talk to him," He replied, making Luka nod. "But my ability is much more then that. I can understand and speak any form of language. I can also allow anyone else to speak, read or understand any language too. This was why the others were about to understand you and your friends during your time visits and why you can understand me right now,"

"But you can't read any language yourself?"

"Well, it's hard to read when you can't see," Khnurn stated, making Luka frown deeply. "Yeah, I'm blind,"

"I'm sorry... I didn't realize," He replied, making Khnurn shrug. "Is that why you always have silver eyes? That's how we see the spirit world right?"

"Yeah, that's how the others see," He replied, making Luka nod. "As for me, it doesn't work on my eyes. Sure, I can sense the other side but I just use it so my eyes look normal. That way no one can actually tell that I'm blind. My enemies would try to use to their advantage if they knew,"

"I see," Luka replied, making Khnurn nod. "Can I ask how you lost your sight?"

"It's a long story," Khnurn replied, making Luka frown a little. "Stop pouting. I'll share it with you another time,"

"How did you know?"

"I'm an empath and I honed my other senses," He replied, impressing Luka. "Admittedly, it's not like how those comic books from your time make it out to be but it helps. Anyway, let's change the subject. What kind of echoes are you hearing or seeing?"

"People keeping on saying 'the Truth is coming'," Luka explained, causing Khnurn to frown as he listened. He explained how he even saw it on the TV. "Any suggestions?"

"Hmm, sounds like the echoes are from the future and that it's something huge but given that it's about truth, maybe telling a truth will change what is causing the echoes,"

"That could work," Luka stated before frowning. "But what truth should I tell? It's not like i can tell people I'm Anatis,"

"You could tell Mulan," Khnurn pointed out. "She's your ally right? Plus it would save a lot of trouble when you need the western box,"

"That's a good idea," Luka stated before raising an eyebrow. "How did you know about that?"

"Oh, it's not like I talk with Feng or Toutai at all," Khnurn replied, rolling his eyes but he had a grin on his face. Luka smiled as well, feeling a lot better then before. Maybe the 'echoes' were telling him to finally tell Dr Mila the truth. "Well, is there anything else I can help with?"

"Well, could you teach me how to tap into your magic since we're both here?"

"Hmm... sure,"

~Later that Evening~

Anatis jumped across the rooftops as he headed towards Dr Mila's home. He had sent her a message saying that he wanted to talk to her and she had answered pretty quickly so he headed there. He jumped down and used his yoyo to lower himself in front of the window, knocking on it. A few minutes later, Dr Mila opened the window and raised an eyebrow as she let him in. She probably did think it was out of character for him, even if he had messaged her first. He didn't just want to turn up unannounced.

"Are you ok?" She asked but he didn't answer. It wasn't that he wasn't ok. He just didn't know how to put his thoughts into words at that moment. He intended to tell her who he really is. Partly because it's a 'truth' as Khnurn put it but also because he believed it was time to tell her. She was his ally and she was one of the guardians. He wanted to show her that he trusted her. "Is there an akuma? I didn't see one on the app or the news,"

"There's no akuma," He replied, making her let out a sigh of relief. "But I did come here for a reason,"

"Oh?" She replied as they walked into her living room. "I assume it is something that I can help with,"

"Yes," He replied, making her nod. "I... I would like to tell you my identity,"

"Well, that- hold on, what did you just say?"

"I would like to tell you my identity," He repeated, causing her to stare at him. "We're allies right and you're one of the guardians of the miraculous so I think it's time you know,"

"Well then... I feel honored that you want to tell me," She replied, pulling the curtains. "There we go. In case, Hawkmoth or Su Han has spies around,"

"Thank you, Mulan," He replied, taking deep breathe before closing his eyes. "Tikki... spots off,"

The glow surrounded him, transforming him back into Luka. He caught Tikki in his hands before putting his hand in his pocket and taking out a cookie for her. Dr Mila gasped in shock as she stared at him but everything now made sense to her. It was so obvious that Luka and Anatis were the same person, even if Anatis was a little more confident. The mask did that though. She was always more confident with a miraculous.

"Um... are you going to say something?"

"Well, this makes a lot of sense," She replied, chuckling. Luka rose an eyebrow. "I was going to ask you to become the holder of the Jellyfish Miraculous on our next session since I believe you to have the potential to been a hero. Looks like I wasn't wrong, Boss,"

"You don't have to call me that," He chuckled, rubbing the back of his neck. "Beside, I've used quite a few miraculi now. Even managed to pull off the mouse miraculous for a bit,"

"Against Kwami Buster right?" She asked, making him nod before they both looked at the time. "It's getting late,"

"Yeah, I should head home," He replied as Tikki finished her cookie. "You ready, Tikki?"

She nodded and he used the transformation words, turning back into Anatis before opening the curtains. He climbed on the balcony and turned to Dr Mila with a relaxed smile.

"Anatis?" She asked, making him raise an eyebrow. "Thank you for sharing that with me. I'm glad you trust me,"

"Thank you for listening," He replied before saluting her. "Good night, Doc. Keep up the good work,"

With that, he dove off the balcony and swung off into the night, leaving Mila in both awe and fear. She knew the burdens that Luka carried were big ones but she never expected that he would also be carrying the burdens of being Anatis as well. She would have to try and offer better support for him but at least he seemed relieved to share his identity with her. With a heavy heart, she closed her window and pulled her curtains before going bed. Meanwhile, Anatis landed on the top of the Eiffel Tower and glanced around. Snapp flew out, causing him to look at the little kwami.

"Is everything ok, Master?"

"Just call me Annie in this form," He smiled, cupping his hands around him and holding him. "And I'm waiting for Bunnyx,"

"Why?"

"Because I told someone my identity," He frowned, glancing down. "Last time I did that, it..."

He went quiet, making Snapp frown.

"Well, it doesn't matter what happened but I just want to make sure it didn't cause any trouble," He replied, smiling weakly. A white glow appeared behind him and a slightly older Bunnyx stepped out, stretching. "You seem relaxed,"

"I am," She replied, grinning. "I'm just here to reassuring that telling Mila didn't affect the timeline or create anything bad. Life goes on as normal,"

"And the other thing?"

"Other thing?"

"The Truth is Coming thing," He replied, making her eyes widen a little. "It stopped whatever that was right?"

"Oh! That," She grinned, placing her hands on her head. "Well, as far as I know it stops,"

"But you're not certain?"

"Well, the future isn't exactly set in stone," She replied, shrugging. "I mean sure, certain things happen but the things around those things don't necessarily have to follow a certain path. Like the whole 'truth' been told could have easily been you telling someone like your mom or mini me your secret or even could be a different secret. Either way the outcome would be the same,"

"So it stops?"

"Yeah, it stops," 

"Why didn't you just say that then?" He asked, causing Bunnyx to grin like she knew something he didn't. Knowing her, she probably did. "Bunnyx?"

"Spoilers," She replied before taking out her umbrella. "Either way, you can sleep well tonight,"

"Well, that's something," He replied, making a thoughtful face. "You heading out?"

"Yup. Say hi to Lady Noir for me," She replied before swiping her umbrella before pointing it. "Burrow!"

A new burrow appeared before she turned to Anatis.

"See you later, boss," She declared before jumping into it. Anatis let out a sigh of relief as the burrow closed before turning to Snapp and patting his shoulder. Snapp flew out and sat on it, curling up as Anatis threw his yoyo and returned back to the Liberty. He jumped through his window and called off his transformation, catching Tikki. He gave her a cookie before he gently placed her in her little bed. Snapp floated over to his and curled up under the little blanket.

"Good night, you two," Luka smiled before getting into bed himself.

~Princes' Park Stadium, One Week Later~

"Alright, Ermitage High will be here in the next 15 minutes so I just want to go over something," Mr Damocles declared, causing everyone to stop what they were doing. Well, expect for Kim who was stretching but listening and Lila who was sat on the benches. She had somehow gotten out of joining with a sick note from her doctor. Both Luka and Marinette were sure she was faking and judging how her father is he probably paid a doctor to write a sick note for his little 'angel'. "This is meant to be fun and not a competition. Having said that, that doesn't mean you shouldn't try. Give it your best shoot,"

"Secondly," Mrs Mendeleiev started. "There are different types of games. Single contenders, pairs and teams will be a thing but you will find that in some games, the pairs and teams will be made up with one student from our school and one student from Ermitage High. We expect you to get on,"

"And finally, you are representing the school here so we all need to be on our best behavior," Miss Bustier declared before playing looking at her colleagues. "That includes you two,"

The students and teachers chuckled as the students and teachers of Ermitage High came in.

"Hello," Mr Damocles smiled, causing their head teacher to look at him with slight contempt.

"Mr Damocles," She smiled falsely before her eyes landed on Marinette's class. "I see you brought the akuma class,"

The students went quiet as a number of the Ermitage students giggled. Luka gripped his fist but Marinette placed her hand over his before clearing her throat.

"Yes, we're the akuma class," She declared, crossing her arms with an attitude that dared the head teacher to try something. "So what about it?"

"Aren't you ashamed of it?"

"Why should we be?" Kagami pointed out, making the teacher look at her. "The only reason why your students having been akumatized, Madam Devereaux, is because they're not in the vicinity of Hawkmoth. Personally, I found Dupont to be a much better place then your school. I don't actually have panic attacks because of home work these days,"

"Can confirm," Max replied, pushing up his glasses. "Hawkmoth seems to only target Paris where your school is just outside of Paris,"

"Now, this is meant to be a fun day," Miss Bustier declared, pressing her hands together. "Let's not be negative and give Hawkmoth a reason to akumatize any of us,"

"I agree," A familiar voice declared, causing everyone to look at the student who spoke. Luka looked surprised as Melodie stepped forward. "I've been akumatized and it's not nice but I also made friends that day so I would like to catch up with them and introduce them to my other friends,"

Melodie's friends happily agreed with her and the sports events began. Even the teachers raced, though the head mistress seemed to hate it. It didn't surprise Luka but he went up against a student called Terra in Martial Arts and won, causing Terra to congratulate him.  Though a strange kid from Terra's class seemed to stare at him and gave him an extremely creepy vibe. His song sent shivers up Luka's spine. It was so dark and evil that it made Lila's beauty. Luka decided it was best to avoid him, especially his arm burnt when the boy 'accidentally' knocked into him. He suspected he might have something to do with Simme but he couldn't be certain nor could he investigate. He also wondered why Simme would bother with such an area. Marinette attempted to join in but her clumsiness didn't really help. Luckily, she just found it fun more then anything. Soon, lunch time rolled around and the students found somewhere to sit and have lunch. Luka, Marinette, Rose, Juleka, Nino, Alya, Ivan, Mylene, Marc and Nathaniel were all sat on the bleachers, discussing the morning's events while enjoying Marinette's cooking. Kagami and Adrien couldn't join them as they had been picked up by their families.

"I'm definitely more suited for the arts," Marc mumbled as Kim and Ondine walked over, followed by Felix. He had only just turned up due to having a therapy appointment in the morning. Luka wondered how Dr Mila was doing. They had discussed his identity in his last session after revealing his identity to her but they only had an hour and his next appointment was for another two days.

"Me too," Marinette groaned, leaning on him. "How are you so talented at everything, Lu? Like seriously you owned that boy!"

"Well, I have been doing Martial arts for a while now,"

"How long is a while?" Melodie asked as she walked over with her friends. Luka noticed one had a similar hair style to Marinette and the boy next to her had brown hair that swooped over his eyes. Next to Melody was Terra and two girls. "Anyway, mind if we join you?"

Everyone looked at Luka who shrugged.

"Sure," He replied, causing them to sit down before he smiled at her friends. "I'm Luka. This is my sister Juleka,"

"Hi..." Juleka muttered, blushing and shying away from Terra as he looked at her. 

"This is Rose and Ivan,"

"Hello!!"

"Hey,"

"Nino, Alya and Felix,"

"Sup, dudes,"

"Heya,"

"Good day,"

"Marc, Nathaniel and Mylene,"

"H-hi..."

"Hm? Oh hi!"

"Hey there,"

"And finally, my girlfriend Marinette," Luka grinned, making her blush.

"Hi, anyone want some macarons?" She asked, holding out a box.

"Nice to meet you all," Melodie replied, nodding. "I'm Melodie. This is Mercury,"

"Hey there!!"

"Sacqueline,"

"Hiya,"

"And these three are Terra, Skylar and Aqua,"

"Hey, it's nice to meet you,"

"Hey," Skylar replied as Aqua nodded. Luka noticed each one of them wore a toy on their side bags, making him raise an eyebrow slightly. Each seemed to be from a different military service so if he had to guess, he would say their family were probably in the military. Skylar had a jet on hers, Terra had a tank and Aqua had a submarine. It was pretty cool. The three of them as well as the others sat down and started to chat but Terra seemed to focus purely on Juleka, making her feel a little uncomfortable. It wasn't because he was talking to her but more that Juleka wasn't use to people paying her attention. Sure, she had been getting better but she was still shy. As the lunch came to an end, he asked her to the side, causing Luka to linger by. He didn't seem like a bad kid but he still wanted to keep an eye on him.

"So, Juleka... I was wondering if you wanted to go on a date with me?" He asked, rubbing the back of his neck.

"Um..." She mumbled something, making him frown as he didn't hear her. "I s-said sorry but I have a girlfriend,"

"G-Girlfriend?"

"Y-Yeah, I'm with Rose,"

"Oh, wow... that's... that's awesome," He smiled, trying to hide his disappointment but Luka could hear it. He was very disappointed. "Well, hopefully we can be friends?"

"S-Sure I suppose," She mumbled as Rose called her over to team up. "Gotta go,"

"Y-Yeah," He replied, waving as she left before letting out a sigh as his sisters came over. "She said no,"

"I'm sorry," Aqua mumbled in a quiet voice while Skylar sat down next to him.

"Hey, you're way out of her league anyway,"

"Sky, don't say that," Terra scolded before sighing. "She has a girlfriend. Besides, she said we can be friends,"

"So she friend-zoned you?"

"You're not helping!"

~Hawkmoth's Lair~

"Ah, unrequited love. Always such a hard thing to deal with, especially when so young," Hawkmoth sighed dramatically before smirking evilly. "Perfect bait for my akuma!"

He held out his hand and one of his white butterflies landed on it. He covered it with his hand and charged it up, turning it into an akuma before letting it fly up.

"Fly away my little akuma," He declared as it reached the window. "And evilize this broken heart!"

The akuma fluttered out of the window and flew towards the triplets but before it could land on Terra, he took a deep breathe and stood up with a smile.

"I shouldn't let myself get down," He declared, causing Skylar to roll her eyes and Aqua to give him a thumbs. "While Juleka is pretty, she is taken and as a gentleman, I should respect that and I still get to be her friend,"

The akuma fluttered nearby, confused by the lack of negative emotion. Zoe, who was sat away from everyone else and saw the triplets talking, looked up and noticed the akuma, causing her to gasp. Simme was sat next to her, under the disguise of a student from Ermitage High. Zoe had helped him join the school, especially for this event. As a a spirit, he had the ability to disguise himself as a mortal. In the belly of feast, he made himself look like a monk and now he looked like a student. He had based his look of one of the american students Zoe had told him about so no one suspected a thing. As for been in the school, he had the power to manipulate people so it wasn't hard to make them believe he had always been there. He looked up and smirked evilly before turning to her.

"Finally, something interesting," He declared, turning into his spirit form. He had been bored all day. None of his attempts to make chaos happened as they kept getting shot down by the teachers of Dupont High. "Cover me,"

"Sim..." Zoe trailed off as he slithered over and watched the triplets. His eyes moved to the akuma, still fluttering nearby. Hawkmoth had ordered it to hang around. Well, if the price for Chaos was helping that idiot, he'd do it. He looked back at the triplets. Terra was smiling but despite his cheerful demeanor, there was a small slither of pain. Not enough for Hawkmoth's akumas but enough for Simme to slip in and whisper. He moved over as his sisters began to walk ahead. Terra went to walk ahead but as Simme moved over to him, he stopped as if lost in thought.

You're not good enough... that's why she rejected you...

"Terra? Come- hey, you ok?" 

That's why you're always rejected... who could ever love a loser like you?

"I'm... not good enough, am I?"

"Whoa, what brought this on?" Skylar asked, surprised. He was fine a moment ago. "Look, sure Juleka rejected you but she prefers girls so don't sweat it. It's not because you're not good enough. You just need to find the right one. Besides, we're young and got the rest of our lives ahead of us,"

Yet you'll end up alone and unloved. You'll never find love. You're nothing!

"I'm nothing," He declared, causing Simme to smirk before touching his arm. His eyes turned black before he shoved Skylar, knocking her to the ground. "Why are you always encouraging me to talk to girls when you know they're going to reject me?! Do you think it's funny?!"

"Terra! Stop it!" Skylar declared, confused. Her brother had never acted out like this before. Simme smirked before moving over to her. Why stop with just one?

He thinks you're weak. He thinks you're pathetic. He thinks you need to be protected. All because you're a girl.

"Terra!" She declared, jumping up as Simme touched her arm. Her eyes turned black as well before she growled. Aqua tried to get them to stop as Simme giggled. It didn't take a lot to push her o. "You wanna fight huh? I'll kick your ass!"

"You just want to build me up only to tear me down!"

"Guys, please!" Aqua gasped as the two shouted over her. Simme moved over to her and leaned closer to her.

They're not going to listen...

Aqua froze as the words echoed in her mind.

You're nothing but the little sister who everyone ignores. No one cares about you. No one loves you. No one notices you.

Tears fill her eyes as he used his words to open up old wounds.

You might as well be invisible.

"I'm..." She gasped as he touched her arm, turning her eyes black as well. "I'm nothing! Why do you always ignore me?!"

Simme chuckled as the triplets shouted and argued before appearing back next to Zoe to watch the show. The akuma, picking up on all of the negative emotions, fluttered over to them and landed in Terra's tank but the connection opened to the three of them, causing them all to grit their teeth angrily as Hawkmoth accepted the connection.

"Feeling heartbroken? Feeling weak? Feeling ignored?" He asked, smirking. "Well, my triplets of terror, none of you will have to feel such feelings ever again. I will give you the power to be strong, to be loved and to be noticed. In return all I ask in return is Anatis and Lady Noir's miraculous. Do we have a deal?"

"We'll make everyone see us!" The triplets declared as a purple smog covered them. Their toys grew in size and turned into real life vehicles. 

"I'll make her love me!" Tank declared, driving off.

"No one will bet me!" Jet declared before flying off.

"I'll make sure everyone sees me!" Submarine declared, dissolving into water.

"Let the show begin," Simme declared, making Zoe look on with horror as the triplets of Terror began to attack the other students.

~The Main Arena of Princes' Park Stadium~

"Ok! Everyone, we're going to begin-"

"JULEKA!" Tank's voice echoed as he drove through the walls of the stadium. Juleka looked over alarmed and jumped up as he began to fire at the students and teachers, capturing them in mud from the shells he fired. The thing was the mud literally covered them, causing them to be trapped inside. Luka frowned as he ran from the scene. Juleka and Rose were running after him, along with Marinette but Tank was firing repeatedly, not caring who he hit. Teachers, students, the staff who worked at the Stadium. He didn't care. There was no real pattern of what he was trying to do. It seemed that he was going after Juleka at first but then he didn't care who he was attacking. It made no sense and on top of that, his music was off. It was distorted and confusing. As he fired at them, Luka grabbed Juleka's and Rose's hand, pulling them away from the scene as Marinette followed but before they could run off, Jet flew over and began firing at everyone. Anyone hit with the bullets lost their gravity and began to float up. They tried desperately to cling onto anything and the students not hit tried to grab their hands. Jet aimed at Juleka but Rose pushed her out of the way and began to float up into the air. Juleka went to reach out for her but Submarine manifested and went to shot at her. Marinette pulled her back but Submarine ignored them and began to fire at the other students who were trying to help those floating away. Similar to the other two, those who were hit were affected but they literally dissolved into water.

"Split up and hide!" Luka ordered, causing Juleka to run in one direction and Marinette to run in the other as the triplets attacked anyone and everyone they could. He headed into the boys locker room, causing Tikki to fly out.

"Luka?" Tikki asked as he frowned. "Shouldn't we transform?"

"Their songs sound distorted. I thought it was just Tank but the other two's music are distorted too," He replied, frowning deeply before swiping his earrings. "Tikki! Spots on!"

He transformed into Anatis before climbing out of the window and swinging up to the top of the Stadium. Juleka had been cornered by Tank, Jet was chasing Kim who was managing to dodge her attacks and Submaine was no where to be seen. He frowned before swinging down and grabbing Juleka by the waist, pulling her away from Tank. He landed on the other side, running as Tank tried to fire at him before swinging off into the rooftops. Juleka clinged onto him as he did before he landed on the Eiffel tower. A few seconds later, Lady Noir jumped down with Kim in her arms.

"So we have an army tank to fight?" She asked, flickered her hair but Jet appeared and began firing at them. Anatis picked up Juleka and jumped down with her with Lady Noir closeby. Kim screamed as he held onto her. They landed on the ground but Tank fired at them, causing Anatis to hold Juleka with one arm and deflect the attacks with his yoyo. "Ok, we have more then just a tank,"

"A jet fighter as well," He replied, glancing around as his luck vision lit up a man hole cover. "Time to visit our second home,"

"Gotta ya!" She declared, running over to it and putting Kim down as Anatis covered them. Jet flew over and fired at them, causing her to use her baton to deflect her attacks. "Kim, open that please!"

"Sure," He replied, opening it and heading inside but as soon as he did, he was hit by Submarine. He screamed as he burst into water before Submaine appeared outside of the manhole. 

"Give us your miraculous!" The three of them declared, causing Anatis and Lady Noir to move protectively around Juleka. 

"On the count of three, get into the manhole and run," Anatis declared, getting a nod of both girls as him and Lady Noir deflected the attacks. "One..."

"Two..." Lady Noir declared before the two of them both shouted three. They jumped down and pulled Juleka with them, running as soon as their feet touched the ground. Submaine manfested behind them and fired at them as they ran as quickly as they could, dodging the attacks but they came to a dead end. Lady Noir held up her hand to use her Cataclysm but Tank appeared and fired at her. However before it hit her or any of them, the ground below them opened it as it glowed white, causing them to fall into a burrow. It closed behind them, causing the three of them to look up. 

"Oh this is a burrow?" Juleka asked, glancing around. 

"Quite right, young squire," The familiar voice of Sir Rene echoed, causing Anatis look up. He was in his rabbit form before he help them to their feet. "Fluff, counter clockwise,"

He detransformed and caught her as his pocket watch turned into a mini sun dial. Anatis couldn't help but note that it made sense since in his time, pocket watches had yet to be invented. Rene smiled at him as he gave Fluff a carrot, causing her to grin and begin to eat it.

"I hope you don't mind my interference. Sadly, you were about to lose,"

"I don't mind but I thought Bunny would be the one to sort it,"

"Miss Doe is in fact out of the burrow right now," Rene replied, walking over to the screen which she was in. "Visiting an old friend but those are spoilers. Luckily for you, I just happened to be looking into the corruption of Mordred and happened upon the future where you lost. Not a pleasant one I assure you,"

"That will be Annie's luck helping out," Lady Noir grinned, gently prodding Anatis with her arm. 

"Well, I'm grateful for both my luck and my friends," Anatis smiled before frowning. "But no where was safe for us. Tank had the ground, Jet rules the sky and Submarine could roam the sewers due to the water there. They had us surrounded like an army would. We need to work out why they got akumatized,"

"Well, I can help with that," Rene replied, turning to one of the screens. He re-winded to the moment they got akumatized and played out the screen, making Anatis frown. Especially as their eyes turned black. "I think that explains a lot,"

"Simme," Anatis muttered, frowning. "Yeah, that explains a lot,"

"Great," Lady Noir sighed as Juleka cleared her throat. The three of them looked over at her.

"Who is Simme?"

"He's an evil spirit that can corrupt people and cause negative emotions," Anatis replied, frowning. "That explains why their..."

He glanced at Juleka.

"Emotions felt off," He was going to stay their music but that would reveal to Juleka that he was Luka. If she worked that out, she might tell Marinette and then Lady Blanche might come back into existence. He shook his head and sighed. That was a can of worms that he didn't want to deal with. "He must of played on their insecurities which draw the akuma in. That complicates things,"

"Does it?" Rene asked, making Anatis look over at him with a raised eyebrow. "Well, yes. He corrupted them but he also used their insecurities to do so. Now if I do this,"

He re-winded the scene.

"And click on this," Rene replied, clicking something that made sound come through the screen. "Ta da! Sound! We can listen in on what happened,"

"Good work," Anatis smiled as Rene played the scene again. This time with the audio. The four of them listened as each triplet fell to Simme's influence but it did reveal a lot for them. Terra felt like he didn't deserve love, Skylar felt like she was weak and needed to be protected and Aqua felt like she was constantly ignored. In their own way, they all wanted attention and acknowledgement. "Well, no we know what they want but we still need to work out how to defeat them plus we're gonna need to purge Simme's influence from them... the sooner I work out how to activate that Phoenix form the better,"

"Phoenix form?" Juleka asked but Anatis shook his head.

"It's a long story," He replied before taking out his yoyo and throwing it up in their air. "Lucky charm!"

His outfit transformed into his upgraded suit as the magical bugs summoned an item. He caught it as it fell down, making him raise an eyebrow as he looked at it. It was a chess piece. The Queen to be exact.

"How is that going to help you defeat them?" Juleka asked, looking at it.

"It's not," He replied, recongizing it. "It's a hint and I know exactly what it means. Sir Rene, could you open a burrow in Mulan's loction?"

"Of course," Rene replied, turning to Fluff who had finished her carrot. "Ready?"

"Aye, aye captain!" She declared before frowning. "Wait but you're a knight? What is yes in knight lanuage?"

"A simple yes will do," He replied, holding out his mini sun dial. "Fluff! Clockwise!"

He transformed into his rabbit form before holding out his umbrella.

"Burrow," He declared, causing a burrow to open where Dr Mila was. "Here we are, young squires. May victory be yours,"

"Thank you, Sir Rene," Anatis replied before stepping out with Lady Noir and Juleka, who looked around in surprise. Dr Mila and Master Fu were both staring in slight surprise, their game of chess interrupted but not at Anatis. He looked behind them and saw they were staring at Sir Rene, who waved at them. Master Fu jumped and bowed to him.

"Celestial Guardian Rene," He gasped, making him chuckle. 

"No need to be so formal," He replied, grinning. "I'm simply dropping off my good friends here. Anatis, I'll keep an eye on your battle from here and will bring you back in here if you need it,"

"Thank you, Sir Rene,"

"Again, no need to be so formal," He chuckled before waving and closing the burrow. 

"Sir Rene is so cool," Juleka muttered, making Anatis smile before he turned to the two masters.

"I apolize for the sudden entrance but the lucky charm led me here," He replied, holding up the chess piece summoned by the lucky charm. 

"The akumas?" Mila asked, getting up along with Fu.  Anatis' miraculous beeped, causing both of them to look at him. Time seemed to be different in the burrow to out here. "Let's talk in the other room,"

"Lady Noir, would you mind keeping Juleka company?"

"Not at all," She grinned as Juleka glanced around. Anatis followed the two masters into a separate room. In the corner was Fu's phonograph and next to it was the  Western box.

"The kwamis are playing with each other," Mila replied as Fu unlocked the phonograph. "We figured it would be to be together as you might need a miraculous from either box,"

"That seemed wise," Anatis replied as his miraculous beeped again. "Is this your new home, Master?"

"It is indeed," He replied, nodding. "You have my address yes?"

"I think so but we'll sort that out after the akumas have been defeated," He replied as his transformation finally fell, turning him back into Luka. He caught Tikki and gave her a cookie, making her grin and begin to eat it. Master Fu rose an eyebrow as Dr Mila didn't blink at his identity. "Oh, I told her a week ago,"

"I'm glad you were able to trust her," Fu smiled before placing the miracle box in front of Luka as he knelt down. Dr Mila placed hers next to it, opening it as Fu opened his "Luka Couffaine, you must pick an ally to fight along side you with this mission but choose carefully. Such powers are meant to serve the greater good and once the mission is over, you will return the miraculous to us,"

"The trio of terror's akuma is in the Tank but getting close to them is the trouble. I can't be certain that just destroying Tank's tank will be enough plus his sisters will make it hard to get to him. We need to get them all together," He muttered, glancing at the selection of miraculous before him. "So we're going to need distractions..."

The fox miraculous lit up in his vision, along with the Wyvern, the Penguin and the Skunk miraculous from the Western Box, forming a plan in his mind. He grabbed the fox before grabbing the other three.

"I already have the fox with me right now but I need to know who these belong to, Dr Mila," He replied, gesturing to the others. She looked at Fu who nodded.

"I gave the Skunk to Ondine Soares," She explained, causing Luka to nod. "The Wyvern miraculous was given to two of my students Renee and Elise. Renee Marcel and Elise Chevrolet. I'll text you their address but I'm not sure if Elise is in Paris at this moment in time. She sometimes stays with her aunt,"

"I'll work it out," He muttered, nodding to himself as he got up and placed the western miraculous into their little boxes. "Ok, I have the start of a plan but I'm gonna need to find these three. Tikki, are you ready to transform?"

"Yes," She nodded, wiping the crumbs from her mouth. Luka smiled before swiping his earrings.

"Tikki, spots on!" He declared, causing her to get stuck into the earrings before turning into Anatis. He picked up the boxes from the western box and put them into his yoyo before picking up the fox. He kept hold it and walked out of the room, causing the two masters to follow him. Lady Noir was sat with Juleka, showing her something on her baton. 

"This is my favorite picture of us," She grinned, causing Juleka to chuckle.

"Are you showing her the selfies we took?" Anatis asked, making the two girls to look up. Lady Noir grinned cheekily before closing the baton. 

"We were a little bored," She replied, placing her hands behind her head. "Got what you need?"

"Yes," He replied, glancing to Juleka. "We have four heroes to pick up... Are you ok if we tell her?"

"Y-Yes," Juleka mumbled, making Lady Noir raise an eyebrow. "I'm Culpeo..."

Lady Noir blinked before grinning.

"Well, I'm glad you trust me with that information, Culpeo!" She grinned, making Juleka grin back. Anatis gently chuckled before walking over.

"Here," He stated, holding out the fox miraculous. "We're going to need Culpeo's help,"

She nodded and put it on, causing Trixx to manifest.

"Sup, Jules," He grinned, making her grin back. "Ready to rock the world?"

"You know it," She replied, a little louder then usual. Anatis couldn't help but smile. Each time he gave her the miraculous, she got a little more confident. "Trixx, Let's pouch,"

She transformed into Culpeo before turning to Anatis.

"What's the plan?"

"Well, I have three more heroes to pick up," He replied, checking his yoyo. "Hmm, looks like our trio of terror is terrorizing the people at the Louve museum... why do akumas always seem to go for that or the Eiffel tower?"

"They have issues," Culpeo replied, making both Anatis and Lady Noir chuckle. "Do you want me to keep an eye on the akumas?"

"Yes please but keep your distance and do not engage. They're like Crescendo,"

"Crap," Culpeo replied as the color drained from her face. "Are they just as... you know?"

"They seem to not care about who they hurt but unlike the others who have fallen to his influence, they haven't actually tried to really kill anyone but that doesn't mean they won't," He replied before pressing his yoyo and taking out a yellow colored macaron. "Here take this. It will give you a stealth suit. All you have to do is eat and say power up,"

"Right," Culpeo nodded, taking the cookie and eating it. "Power up,"

A glow covered her body, turning her outfit into a darker verison of her usual look. Her hair was completely black and her ears were slightly smaller. Her shorts, gloves and shirt were darker orange and had a  camflage design. Her tights had turned dark gray instead of orange and her tails were darker looking too. Similarly to her shirt, they had a camflage design but the gray parts had turned black. Her mask had also gained a camflage design but over all was the same design. Her flute was also smaller in design, attatching to her belt instead of going on her back.

"Sweet," She mumbled, looking at her hands.

"Your suit will change it's look according to your surroundings so you can blend into your environment," Anatis explained, making her raise an eyebrow. "This will allow you to observe the akuma without been noticed. To turn back into your normal form, just say 'Crouch Down',"

"Ok," She nodded before going to the window. As soon as she stepped into the light, her suit changed into a white verison, blending her into the light. Even her hair turned white. "Sick,"

"Be careful," He replied, getting a nod of her. She climbed out of the window and jumped up onto the roof, causing her suit to change again to blend better. With Culpeo spying on the akumas, he turned to Lady Noir and took out the skunk miraculous. He handed it to her, making her nod. "This belongs to Ondine Soares. Can you go collect her?"

"Of course," She replied, taking it and putting it in her pocket as her baton vibrated. She opened it and read the message before nodding. "Got it,"

"I've also sent her a message to let her know you're going to be heading there," Mulan replied, making her nod as well. "I've done the same with the other two as well... oh, Elise texted back.. she said she knows,"

"Ok, thank you," Lady Noir replied before she turned back to Anatis. "Meet near the Louvre?"

"Yes," Anatis replied, causing Lady Noir to nod. "Be careful, kitten,"

"You too, Annie," She climbed out of the window and headed into the city to find her. Anatis turned to Fu and Mulan and gave them a nod before he climbed out of the window and swung down into the city. However, he also kept low instead of going on the rooftops. He couldn't risk Jet seeing him but he had to keep out of the sewers too. He headed to Renee's address and landed on the balcony, knocking on the window. A few seconds later, it was opened by Renee. She didn't look surprised at all. He suppose she wouldn't be since Mulan texted her.

"Hey, Dr Mila let me know you were on your way but Elise told me to come to this room,"

"Ok?" He asked a little confused. Elise already knew he needed help and which room Renee should go to. Odd. He shook his head, deciding not to question it before taking out his yoyo and reaching into it. He took out the box and held it out to her. "I need Dame's help,"

"Sure," She grinned, taking it and opening it. A green ball of light appeared and moved around before turning into Vernn. "Hey Vernn,"

"Hello there, young squire!" He called cheerfully before turning to Anatis. "Master Anatis, it is good to see you again!"

"I imagine it's been a while for you,"

"A good few centuries,"

"Huh?" Renee rose an eyebrow in confusion before shaking her head. "I'm not going to ask. Vernn, ready to transform?"

"Always ready, young squire!"

"Vernn, Protect!" She declared, transforming into Dame. "Ok, let's go,"

"Before we go, I need to collect Elise as well," He replied, making her look at him. "Is she at home?"

"No, she's staying with her aunt this week... outside of Paris," She replied, making him frown. Having the Penguin's power would be useful and he didn't have time to chose a new holder. He also couldn't merge his miraculous with it. Not in this battle plus something told him that it was far too dangerous to merge miraculous from different boxes. More so then from the same ones. However before he could even word these thoughts, a burrow appeared next to him, making him smile."What is that?"

"A burrow," He replied, smiling as Elise stepped out. She looked around surprised and he noticed she was in her PJs. "Oh, that's how she knew,"

"Know what?" Both Elise and Dame asked, confused before Dame's sword vibrated. She checked it and the confusion melted from her face.

"Oh! I get it," She replied. "Present day Elise is still at her aunt. The Elise in front of us is from a couple of nights ago,"

"The nice knight said there was an akuma and that you needed my help," Elise replied, making Anatis nod and take out her miraculous. The penguin kwami, Penni, manifested and excitedly raced around everyone before stopping in front of Anatis. She blinked as she looked at him before squealing excitedly.

"Sorry, Anatis," Elise gasped, rubbing the back of her neck. "Penni loves meeting new people,"

"Hi! I'm Penni!! She gasped, fluttering into front of his face. "You're Tikki's holder, aren't you?! It's so nice to see a new Ladybug holder!"

"Thank you, Penni," He smiled, making her giggle. "I'm very happy to meet you but could I ask for your help please? There's a very difficult akuma to defeat and I need a helping hand. Could you help me out?"

"Oh!! So polite!" She gasped, flapping her fins excitedly. "Yes, yes! Elise, let's transform!"

"Ok, Penni," Elise replied, holding up her arms. "Penni, Dive Down!"

Penni got sucked into the miraculous, allowing Elise to transform into Snowbird.

"Ok, let's go," Anatis declared, causing the two nod and follow him when he swung off. As they headed to the meeting area, he explained the situation including that Simme had influenced them. The two listened to him as he explained before landing on the rooftop. Lady Noir and Aroma were already there but Anatis couldn't see Culpeo yet. He glanced around before noticing a slight distort by the left side. "Everyone here then?"

"Yep," Culpeo replied, making the three other heroes jump a little. "Crouch down,"

A glow appeared, causing her to reappear in her normal outfit.

"What did you learn, Culpeo?"

"Not much," She replied, making him frown. "Tank is planning a romantic dinner here for Juleka Couffaine. He seems to be obsessed with her. Jet has been firing at anyone and anything. Hence the tables and other objects in the sky and Submarine has yet to make an appearance. Even when Lady Noir came here, they didn't seem to care,"

"So they're not listening to Hawkmoth?"

"I don't think that's the case," She replied. "They seem to be more bothered about their own goals but intend to give him your miraculous once they've 'proved' their worth,"

"Prove their worth?" Anatis replied, thinking before remembering Sir Rene's advice. "I have more of a plan now but I think to fully form it, I'm gonna need some luck. Culpeo, can you create a mirage to distract them?"

"Huh?" Aroma gasped, confused.

"When I call out my power, it's going to get their attention," He replied, making Dame and the other two look at him.

"Which is where my power comes in. I'll provide an illusion which will distract them," Culpeo explained, taking out her flute and playing it. An orange ball appeared at the end of it and she threw it towards their direction. "Mirage!"

An illusion of herself, Anatis and Lady Noir appeared, jumping over the rooftops. Instantly, Jet appeared, shooting at them and Tank got back in his tank, driving after them. Even Submarine appeared, chasing them as they teleported across the rooftops. As soon as they were out of view, Anatis threw up his yoyo.

"Lucky charm!" He called out, causing the magic swarm to appear and create an item as his outfit turned into his upgraded one. He caught it and rose an eyebrow. "A finish line?"

"What are you going to do with that?"

"I'm not sure yet," He replied, glancing around. "Let's head towards the Eiffel Tower,"

The six of them headed in that direction before landing on the Eiffel tower. Anatis looked around before the Trocadéro Gardens lit up then Culpeo and Lady Noir. Next, his own yoyo and the finish line lit up then Aroma and Snowbird before finally lighting up Dame.

"I've got a plan," He declared, causing the five girls look at him as he opened his yoyo and took out two more power up cookies. "Culpeo, pick one. Sky, sea or earth?"

"Um... sea?" She asked, causing him to hand her a green maracron.

"Oh can I pick Sky?!" Lady Noir declared, realising where he was going with this. 

"Then I'll get ground," He replied, making the others blink. "Our friends are looking for validation right? Well, winning means they're the best so we're going to race them,"

"How is that going to help?" Aroma asked, making Anatis grin as Culpeo's miraculous beeped. He turned to her and gave her a normal cookie, making her take it and hide behind a beam. 

"Can you still hear me, Culpeo?"

"Yeah..."

"Good," He replied. "So the race isn't the only part of the plan. We're going to use it to lure them to the Trocadéro Gardens, where you and Snowbird are going to ambush them. That should distract them and then Lady Noir can destroy Tank's tank,"

"And where do I come in?" Dame asked, making Anatis look at her.

"After I've captured the akuma, cast Empower," He declared. "I'm going to need it to amplify my natural ability to break Simme's influence on them as there's three of them,"

"I see," She replied, nodding as an orange light appeared from behind the beam Culpeo was. "Um does that mean her mirage is over?"

"Yes but I lead them to the other side of Paris," Culpeo declared.

"That's fine," Anatis replied, handing Aroma the finish line. "Set up a finish line over there,"

He pointed to two lamp posts in the Trocadéro Gardens. She took it and nodded as another glow appeared from behind the beam. Culpeo stepped out.

"When the three of us cross the line, attack the trio of terror with your abilities,"

"How are you sure you'll win?"

"I don't know if we will," He replied, surprising them. "But that doesn't matter. The goal is to get them here and get them distracted,"

"Oh, I see," Snowbird nodded as Aroma nodded as well.

"Alright, let's go challenge the trio of terror," Anatis declared, causing the girls to nod and head out into the city with him. Aroma, Dame and Snowbird jumped down and set up the finishline before finding places to hide and get ready to ambush the akumas.

~Meanwhile~

Anatis landed on a building near the Seine and glanced around. Lady Noir had transformed into Lady Cosmos and Culpeo had turned into her Aqua Form, Fennecée. He noticed Tank on the ground, clearly looking for him. He took out his yoyo and reached in, taking out a pink macaron, placing it in his mouth and eating it.

"Power up," He muttered after he finished it. A glow to appeared over his outfit and changing it, allowing him to turn into Alacris. His outfit began more like a professional skater's outfit, giving him elbow pads and knee pads but they were built in the suit. Not just that but the suit felt much lighter and the material seemed different, like it was designed to go faster. The design had changed as well. He still had the black panels on his sides but they changed directions on the legs, going diagonal. His boots came just below his knees and were also roller blades. They had straps that go up the boot as well. His gloves were fingerless but they also had padding on them to protect his wrists. These ones were on the outside and had a ladybug pattern on them. He also had shoulder padding and his mask had turned into speed goggles. He had a ear piece attatched to his ear as well. Unsure what it did, he pressed it, creating a helmet for him. "Nice,"

He stood up and whistled, getting Tank's attention. He went to fire at him but Alacris held up his hand.

"I have a proposal for you," He declared, causing Tank to stop attacking. " I challenge you to a race. From here to the Trocadéro Gardens. If I win, you give up your akuma,"

"And if I win?"

"I give you miraculous,"

"Deal,"

"Great!" He declared, jumping down and skating off with incredible speed. Tank speed ahead, catching up with him but Alacris looked behind him and smirked. "Catch me if you can!"

He sped off, causing Tank to growl and race after him as Jet raced after Lady Cosmos and Submarine raced after Fennecée. The heroes managed to keep a head of them, heading towards the Trocadéro Gardens as fast as they could. Fennecée jumped out of the water as she got closer, causing Lady Cosmos to catch her and fly her towards the finish line. Submarine teleported and fired at them, causing Lady Cosmos to spin and dodge it before Alacris speed past Submarine, knocking her back with his speed. Tank rushed after him as Jet dashed after the other two but the moment the three heroes crossed the finish line, Aroma threw her smoke bombs at Jet and Snowbird turned the floor slippery, causing Tank to slide. Submarine teleported and went to fire at them but Fennecée played her flute and threw a mirage at her, causing Submarine to think her vehicle was damaged. 

"Sisters! Form together!" Tank called out, causing Jet and Submarine to go back over to him and crash into him. A bright light explored, causing the heroes to cover their eyes as it formed a new shape. Once it disappeared, a huge mech-suit was in the place of the three vehicles. It was roughly the same size as the Eiffel tower and the heroes could see the triplets in the head of the machine. It fired towards the heroes, hitting Aroma as she pushed Fennecée out of the way. Alacris speed towards them, dodging their attack before wrapping his yoyo around it and pulling them. It stumbled back, causing the triplets to fall a little.

"Lady Cosmos now!" He declared, causing her to fly at them. They started to fire at her but she dodged them with aerial movement and slammed her hand into the middle of the mech.

"Cataclysm!" She declared, causing it to spread all over the suit, breaking all of it. It shattered into pieces, causing the triplets to fall. Lady Cosmos caught Jet as Alatric caught Tank. Fennecée jumped up and caught Submarine as the akuma fluttered out. Alatric placed Tank on the ground and went to throw his yoyo but Tank charged at him, growling at him. Luckily, he sped out the way, tripping Tank up. However, Fennecée and Lady Cosmos had to pin down his sisters as they tried to attack them as well. Alatric threw his yoyo and caught the akuma before letting it go. Snowbird threw him the finish line, allowing him to throw it in their air.

"Miraculous Ladybugs!" He declared, releasing the cure as Tank turned back into Terra. He still got up and charged at Alatric. Aroma grabbed him and pinned him to the ground as Alatric powered back down into Anatis. "Dame, now!"

"Empower!" She declared, causing her sword to glow green. She tapped Anatis with it before he placed his hand on Terra's forehead as his eyes turned silver.

"You're not welcome here!" He declared as Terra screamed out. His black eyes went wide before he collapsed as they turned back to normal. Anatis jumped up and rushed over to Skylar, placing his hand on her forehead too. "Nor here either!"

She cried out as her eyes turned back to their normal color as well. Finally, he rushed over to Aqua and placed his hand on her forehead too.

"It's the same with this one!" He declared but Aqua seemed to fight back, causing his eyes to glow. "I said you're not welcome here and neither is your influence!"

Her eyes glowed silver as well before turning back to her normal color. She blinked and sat up as Anatis let her go.

"W-what happened?" She asked in a quiet voice as her siblings got up with the help of the other heroes.

"You three were akumatized," Anatis explained before he held out his yoyo. "Prosperity,"

He tapped his yoyo, causing it to open and reached in, taking out three charms. One was green with brown spots, one was yellow with white spots and one was blue with teal spots.

"Here," He said, handing the green one to Terra, the yellow to Skylar and the blue one to Aqua. "These will protect you from akumas but please keep these to yourself. Hawkmoth isn't aware of these so keeping them secret will help keep everyone who has them safe,"

"We understand," Skylar states, smiling at hers. "Thank you,"

"We owe you one," Terra grinned.

"Yeah..." Aqua replied, making Anatis nod before he looked at them.

"By the way, you don't need to feel unloved, weak or invisible," He stated, making them look at him. "People love you in their own ways. Yes, sometimes they don't return your feelings but that isn't the be all or end all. Terra, you're still a teenager and you have so many years ahead of you to love but you're not going to be a teenager forever. Don't let love take your youth away,"

He turned to Skylar.

"People protect you, not because they think you're weak but because they care for you and don't want to be hurt," He explained, making her look at him in surprise. "It's ok to ask for help. That doesn't make you weak and you don't need to pick a fight to show you are strong. There are other ways to show your strengths,"

He finally turned to Aqua.

"You're not invisible, Aqua," He stated, making her look at him. "And there is nothing wrong with you. You're not a freak for been quiet or a little reserved. Not everyone is born to be social and there is nothing wrong with that. Sometimes, it's better to a small amount of friends you can count on then hundreds of people who let you down. Been popular isn't always what you think it is,"

"I see," She replied before nodding. "Thank you,"

"No problem," He replied as his earrings beeped. "Sorry, I'm going have to go. Ladies, shall we?"

"Alright," Dame replied as Lady Cosmos turned back into Lady Noir and Fennecée turned back into Culpeo. They nodded and the six of them headed into the rooftops. Anatis turned to Lady Noir.

"Could you collect Culpeo's and Aroma's miraculous?" He asked, making her nod. The two heroes followed her to a different location as Dame called off her transformation and said goodbye to Vernn. Snowbird turned back into Elise and said her goodbyes to Penni. "Thank you for your help today, you two. I hope we can work together again,"

"Anytime you need us, we'll be there," Renee declared as Elise nodded. "But how are we going to get home?"

As soon as she asked, a burrow opened.

"I think my friend will give you a lift," Anatis smiled, causing both girls to nod and head into the burrow. Anatis headed towards Master Fu's new home and swung through the window, landing on the floor as his transformation dropped. He took a cookie out for Tikki who took off him and thanked him before eating it. Master Fu looked up from his tea and smiled.

"I am glad to see the mission was a success," He replied, smiling. "Lady Noir returned the miraculous already. She left a couple of minutes ago,"

"I'm glad she got here easily," Luka smiled as Dr Mila came in from the kitchen with her own tea. He took out the two miraculous and held them out to her as she placed her drink down. She walked over and took them off her. 

"Thank you, Luka," She smiled, putting them back in the box. "The kwamis can now continue their play time. How did you find the akuma?"

"It was hard but thanks to everyone working together, we were able to defeat them," He replied, thinking about how Simme influenced them and about the weird boy he came across during the martial art event he had joined in with. He explained it to Master Fu and Mila who both looked concerned. "I'm not sure if he was Simme or just one of his followers but i got a bad feeling,"

"Chances are is it's one of his followers,"

"Yeah..." He replied, thinking. "I'll keep an eye on the situation for now. Luckily, I can ask my team for help to defeat him this time,"

"Well, they do have a good leader and it's good that you can rely on them," Fu replied, smiling. "And I'm sure one day you'll become a great guardian.. if not the best there is,"

Luka went red and hid his face in his hoodie.

"I don't know but I'll try my best, master," He mumbled as Tikki giggled at his reaction. "I bet go. I have to get back to the Stadium,"

"Of course," Fu replied. "Enjoy the rest of your day,"

~The Catacombs, Later that Afternoon~

"Are you satisfied?" Zoe asked as Simme stretched his arms and grinned, making her gulp. 

"Well, they were mediocre but I am still pleased with the results," He replied, his mind drifting to the martial artist who went up against one of those triplets. He had been interested as soon as he saw him completing. He always had an interest in those who studied the martial arts. He might be the spirit of cruelty but he often admired those who tried that path. Mostly because it was fun to drag them down into the darkness. They always took themselves so serious but this boy felt different. He didn't think of himself as above and seemed to have fun even though he almost lost. Admittedly, he won but that triplet gave him a run for his money. The boy however laughed and complimented his skill. That drew Simme in so he moved close enough to see more... and that's when he caught the scent of his soul. The very thought of it made his mouth water. The boy was literally a light soul. The very thing he had been searching for so long but it got better then that. He had sense his own nemesis within the boy. Finni's presence was unmistakable, meaning the child was Feng reborn and oh did that excite Simme? Not only would he get to consume a light soul and tip the balance in his favor but he would literally be consume that pesky mage as well. Of course, he was planning to keep all of this to himself. Su Han wanted to kill him and that idiot wanted to akumatize him. Simme didn't care for either of them so he would keep this boy's secret.

"Oh?"

"I got to corrupt three souls, my darling wasp," He grinned, making her gulp. "And there's more to come,"

~Later that Night~

"I am knackered," Luka declared, drying his hair as Tikki sat watching TV in his room. Snapp was curled up next to her. "Sorry, you had to hide all day, Snapp,"

"It's ok, Luka," He replied, stretching. "You had a tough battle and besides, I was safe,"

"Not as safe as I would like," Luka muttered, thinking about how Snapp had been forced to do evil by XY and how Nooroo was still trapped by Hawkmoth. "I swear I'll find a way to free all of you from that awful curse and I'll save Nooroo and Duusu as well,"

"Of course you will!" Snapp declared, flying up. "You're the true guardian!"

"You remember that?"

"Well, not ready but I believe Tikki and while my memories say otherwise, my heart and soul says you're the true guardian and the mage," Snapp declared, making Luka smile. "Wish or no wish, you're the most recent of Master Feng's life,"

"Thank you, Snapp," Luka smiled, picking up the remote and putting on a different channel. As soon as he did, the TV flickered, making him frown.

"It's time to face the truth," A voice echoed, making him feel sick as the eye he saw appeared once again before the TV turned normal as he stared. Literally seconds later, a burrow opened up in his room and a panicked Bunnyx came out, making him jump.

"Alix, what's wrong?" He asked as she literally hugged him.

"Luka!" She gasped, tears in her eyes as she looked up at him. "I... I don't know what to do,"

"Take a deep breathe and tell me what happened,"

"It's... Code Red..." She gasped, making the color drain out of his face as Tikki jumped up. "Lady Noir can't fight him. We need Anatis,"

"Tikki, spots on," He declared, turning into Anatis. "Take me to them, Bunnyx,"

She nodded and the two of them stepped into the burrow, disappearing into it's light....
