============================================
??? (Narrator): Many centuries ago, magic jewels bestowing extraordinary powers were created...
Spoke out a small squeaky yet gentle voice in the eternal darkness before a blinding light exploded in the darkness.
A cacophony of countless colors spread out before slamming inwards.
The caw of a bird, the flap of a bug's wings and the sharpening of cat's claws echoed in the emptiness as the blinding light dimmed down to reveal...
??? (Narrator): These were the Miraculous.
??? (Narrator): Throughout history...
??? (Narrator):... Heroes have used these jewels...
??? (Narrator): for the good of the human race...
??? (Narrator): Three of these Miraculous are more powerful than the others; the nose ring of the Crow, which gives the power of tension...
??? (Narrator): the earrings of the Ladybug, which provide the power of creation...
??? (Narrator): and the ring of the Black Cat, which grants the power of destruction...
??? (Narrator): According to legend...
A thick book appears in an endless white realm, it flips rapidly through the pages before stopping on a page showcasing a man with four arms and legs inside a circle.
??? (Narrator): Whoever controls all three of these jewels at the same time will achieve absolute power.
The three jewels slam into the picture as it transforms.
A blinding light eclipses everything once more.
Just as it does, the story stops with a simple blink, as if it were a story told from someone's eyes.
Said small eyes looked up at the towering silhouette over him as the figure spoke, his voice rough with an edge of slight formality.
???#2: I want that absolute power, Nooroo... I must have those Miraculous!
The small floating being who the gentle voice originated from now titled "Nooroo" lightly floats up while shacking his head.
A light flutter could be heard from the butterflies on the floor.
Nooroo: But nobody knows where these Miraculous are.
???#2: I found you though, my little Nooroo. Your Miraculous... remind me of its powers again.
Nooroo: The Butterfly Brooch allows you to give someone their own superpowers and to make that person your devoted follower.
He proudly declared, fond memories washed over him from sending beautiful butterflies of hope to people in need.
But also bad memories washing over him, he hoped that this one would be a nicer one.
???#2: And when it comes to luring superheroes...
He dragged his thumb over the brooch in his palm, eyeing the picture inside...
Before bringing up his other hand and clasping it shut.
???#2: What could be better than creating supervillains?
A familiar feeling of panic and dread shot through the small purple butterfly like creature.
Nooroo: But master, the Miraculous are not meant to be used for evil purposes!
???#2: I must have this absolute power!
STOMP!
Nooroo gasped and floated back as the butterflies fly around in panic and flurry.
A shaky breath leaves the small being as the figure points at him.
???#2: Your Miraculous is in my control!
Nooroos' little jaw drops at the memories rush back to him, he holds himself unable to help himself but shiver and quack.
???#2: I am your master now, and you must obey me.
With a small squeak and a defeated look, Nooroo lowered his head.
Nooroo: Yes, master.
A small click was heard as the figure puts on the brooch.
???#2: Nooroo, Dark Wings Rise!
A small gasp escapes the small being as he becomes little more than a orb of light purple light that slams into the brooch.
The fluttering of wings reach an apex as the butterflies coat the man completely like a cocoon. Before he spreads out his arms and the butterflies burst of and fly around the room restlessly.
And now a new figure stood.
???#2: From this day on, I shall be known as...
Hawk Moth: Hawk Moth!
His decoration echoed in the chamber before laughter erupted from him. Malicious laughter.
-------------------------------------------------------
A small green being similar to Nooroo sleeps inside a match box changed into a bed inside a record player.
He rocked from side to side before his eyes burst open with a gasp, he flies out of the player and out into the small apartment.
???: Master, Master Fu!
The small green one spots the one known as "Fu", a small man in a red shirt with white leaf patterns tending to a client for some sort of massage.
Said client sits up in confusion as the green one hides.
Fu: Master, master. Chanting, it's all part of the treatment. Master, master.
He pulls the man to his feet and begins pushing customer out door.
Fu: Thank you for coming, see you again next week!
He shoves the man out even as the customer tires to talk but Fu slams the door in his face. The man grumbles and walks away, Fu turns around to face the green one.
Fu: Wayzz?
The green one dubbed "Wayzz" flies out from behind Fus' back.
Wayzz: Master, the Butterfly Miraculous, I felt its aura.
Fu: I thought it had been lost forever!
Wayzz: But Master, it's a negative aura. I fear it may have gotten into the hands of a dark power!
Fu: We must find Nooroo and his Miraculous. If it has gotten into the wrong hands, there's no telling what evil will come upon the world!
He walks past Wayzz and steps onto the mat before turning to Wayzz with a determined look, Wayzz on the other hand looked concerned as Fu began striking poses.
Fu: Time to transform! Wayzz-...
CRACK!
The man yelped and fell to his knees while clutching his back as his little green friend flew down to his face.
Wayzz: Please, Master. Be reasonable. You are-...
Fu: Still young! I'm only 186... (Sighs)... But...
With a small groan he stands up, he slowly turns his head to the record player Wayzz was sleeping in.
Fu: You're right, Wayzz.. . I can no longer do it alone. We'll need some help.
With a deep breath in his mouth and out his nose he stepped up to the record player. He pressed the eyes of the twin dragons on the front of its ornate design.
Both eyes flew red as the rectangular space between the dragons opened to reveal seven small buttons.
Five on top, four on the bottom.
He pressed the second button on the top, second button on the bottom and fourth bottom on the top.
The record player spun to show its side, the top record player portion lifted up like a lid to reveal two seats of two automatic sliding doors that move away as a familiar obsidian box lined with blood red designs on the top raises out of it.
Fu eyed it, this was a long shot, a dangerous shot. But it was his only shot.
He steeled himself, put his past behind him for the moment and reached for the box.
-------------------------------------------------------
A car zoomed past a bakery at the a corner as the sun shined down on the establishment.
All the while snoring could be heard from the top.
Sabine (Downstairs): Marinette! Your alarm's been going off for fifteen minutes! You're going to be late for your first day back at school!
Called out a gentle voice, it rang out through a trapdoor and into a pink themed attic room.
A phone lays on the pink mattress of a bed that was attached to a the wall, with another bed next to it attached to the wall, a bed with blue sheets and a divider in between the two beds.
That bed however was empty.
The pink blanket on the pink bed moved as a hand reaches out of a blanket to grab it.
Marinette: Got it, Mom!
Another groan comes from the girl known as Marinette.
-------------------------------------------------------
She walks down the stairs leading to her attic bedroom, she walks over to the kitchen to the side and gives her mother a morning kiss.
Marinette: I bet you anything, Chloé will be in my class again.
Sabine: Four years in a row, is that possible?
Marinette: Definitely. Lucky me...
Sabine: Don't say that. It's the start of a new year, I'm sure everything will be just fine, especially with Y/n coming back. You two will have an amazing first day.
The young girl who was gently setting down the coco container slammed it down panic.
Marinette: Wait, Y/n's coming back today?!
Sabine: Of course, we talked about this, don't you remember? He's gonna be joining you later today.
The young girl slowly turned back with a small frown, she picked up a spoon and dropped her hand limp on the table.
Marinettes' eyes widen as an orange slides out of a spoon resting against a food bowl, it rolls around the table knocking over multiple bottles as Marinette doesn't know which one to reach to stop first before the fruit knocks down the and pours a lot on the floor.
She sighed and shrunk while lowering her head, Sabine however walked over with small smile, set everything right on the table, wiped the milk before stroking Marinettes' face with the back of her finger to cheer her daughter up.
And it worked.
-------------------------------------------------------
Downstairs, after getting ready for school Marinette was greeted by the humming of La Marseillaise with tounge.
Tom turned around and showed a rectangular box lined with with two sets of green macarons much to the young girl's delight.
Marinette: Dad, these are so awesome!
Tom: Glad you like them.
Marinette: Thank you Dad, my class will love them! You're the best!
Her dad hands her the box before rubbing her head.
Tom: We're the best. thanks to your amazing designs
He reaches to the side and picks up a black copy with the exact same design on the inside as the ontop of the macarons.
Unable to contain her happiness, Marinette jumped up to hug her father, in doing so she dropped the box.
Though luckily Tom caught it with his foot before he kicked it up into his hand with a small chuckle and handed it Marinette.
Sabine came over and handed Marinette her bag, the young girl took it before planting kisses on both of her parent's cheeks.
Marinette: Thanks. See you tonight!
With that she rushed out the door as her parents watched with smiles.
Marinette runs out of the bakery and onto the sidewalk to the right with the box of macarons in hand and her backpack on her back.
Realizing it's a red light she grinds to a stop, pulling herself back just in time to avoid a car.
She sighs in relief before looking forward and yelps when she sees an old man crossing the street with a cane and hunch back. A familiar old man. Fu.
And to make it worse, she saw a car heading at full speed without a care, looking around in panic she saw everyone to preoccupied with their phones.
Rushing forward without a thought she grabbed the man and pulled him across the road as the car raced by.
In the process she ended up tripping onto the sidewalk with a groan of pain. Her bag fell at her side and most the macarons spilled out onto the ground.
Fu: Thank you, Miss. (looks at the open...(Notices the mess)... Oh! What a disaster.
The light turned green and people started crossing the street. Marinette reaches her hand towards one of the macarons on the ground as a pedestrian crushes it under his shoe, looking at his phone.
She sighs before picking up the box and saving what little she could.
Marinette: Don't worry, I'm no stranger to disasters. Besides, there are still a few left.
She tilts the box towards Fu, offering for him to try one of the remaining macarons and he takes a macaron from the box and bites into it.
Fu: Mmmh. Delicious!
He looks up at Marinette with a grateful smile. Marinette smiles back as she shuts the box.
RING!
Marinette: Oh no, I'm gonna be late!... (Panics, turns and bows to Fu)... Ah, have a nice day, sir!
With that she runs across the street towards the school while the old man watched with a smile.
He lifted his hand which had a black box sitting in his palm with red markings on the lid, a miniature version of the Miraculous Box. Big enough for a singular Miraculous.
Fu: Thank you very much, young lady.
He pockets the box and walks off into the bakery, holding his cane behind his back.
-------------------------------------------------------
Marinette rushes into Collège Françoise Dupont, past the janitor and rushes to her classroom on the second floor. She ran on the stairs and walkway that hugged the wall before bursting through the door into the room.
She stumbles into the classroom but plays it off and non reacts, she walks past the teacher and towards the desks.
Teacher: Nino, Why don't you have a seat in the front row this year?
A small groan came from the back as the boy dubbed "Nino" stood up and changed seats to the very first row.
Marinette took the seat behind him, but before she even had a chance to get comfortable a hand slams onto the decks infront of her which causes her to slump.
???: Marinette Dupain-Cheng.
Marinette: Ugh. Here we go again.
???: That's my seat.
Marinette: But Chloé, this has always been my seat.
Hearing a small shuffle beside her, the blue-haired girl turned to her left to see another girl slide into the seat.
???: Not anymore! New school, new year, new seats!
The blonde girl dubbed "Chloé" turned and pointed at the front row of the other set of seats.
Chloé: So why don't you just go and sit beside that new girl over there?
Marinette: But...
She gets cut off once more as Chloé pressed her hand firmly on the wood of the table.
Chloé: Listen. Adrien's arriving today and since that's going to be his seat... (Points ahead, next to Nino)... This... (Slams hand onto table, scaring her friend)... is going to be my seat. Get it?
All that got was a raised eyebrow and confused expression from the blue-haired girl.
Marinette: Who's Adrien?
A short silence passes between her and the two girls before Chloé bursts out laughing only to be slowly and awkwardly followed by Sabrina.
Chloé: Can you believe she doesn't know who Adrien is, Sabrina? I mean what rock have you been living under?
The girl beside now knowing as "Sabrina" continues to awkwardly mean girl laugh.
Sabrina: He's only a famous model.
Chloé: And I am his best friend. He adores me. Go on, move!
??? (Out Of View): Hey!
All of them turned to see the new girl had stepped up right to Chloes' face.
New Girl: Who elected you Queen of Seats?
Chloé: Oh. Look, Sabrina! We've got a little do-gooder in our class this year. What are you gonna do, super newbie? Shoot beams at me with your glasses?
New Girl: Wouldn't you like to know? Come on.
She grabs Marinettes' wrist to pull her up, said girl quickly picked up the box from the table. From the force of the new girl's pulling, Marinette trips and falls, spilling all but one macaron on the floor.
Marinette: Sorry, sorry, sorry.
New Girl: Chillax, girl. No biggie.
A cruel laugh was heard from Chloé as Marinette gathered herself and allowed the new girl to help her into the first seat of the other row.
Teacher: Alright, has everyone found a seat?
She pressed her hands to the table as she eyed the room, at the back of the row on the left sat a girl wearing darker clothing and the end of her hair dyed purple, with her sat a short girl with short blonde hair and wearing a pink dress.
In front of them sat two boys, the one the left had slightly darker skin, glasses and was wearing overalls with a green undershirt while the tall boy beside him wore more athletic clothing.
On the seats in front of the two saw two girls, both on the shorter side. The one on the left had a cap over her red hair, black shirt with snakes wrapped on the arms, the girl beside her was slightly on the chubby side and wore multiple pins on her coat.
In front of them sat Marinette and the new girl. On the other set of seats at the back sat a lone red-head quiet boy, in front of him a big boy wearing black and an empty seat beside him.
And ahead of him sat Chloé and Sabrina and ahead of them was Nino all alone.
As the teacher turned to the board with smile, Marinette held a small whispered conversation with the new girl.
Marinette: I so wish I can handle Chloé the way you do.
New Girl: You mean the way Majestia does it.
She shows Marinette a picture of Majestia on her phone.
New Girl: She says all that is necessary for the triumph of evil is that good people do nothing...(Wraps arm around Marinettes' shoulder and points at Chloé)... Well, that girl over there is evil, and we are the good people. We can't let her get away with it.
Marinette: Well, that's easier said than done. She likes to make my life miserable.
New Girl: That's cause you let her, girl! You just need more confidence, Uh-...
She realizes she doesn't know Marinettes' name, said girl grabs the last macaron from the box and gives it to the new girl.
Marinette: Marinette.
The new girl takes it with a smile before cracking the macaron in half and handing half to Marinette.
Alya: Alya.
The two girls smile and both eat their half's of the treat, both of them turn back to the board.
Miss Bustier: For those of you who don't yet know me, I'm Ms. Bustier. I'll be your teacher this year.
But a certain blonde in the room couldn't care less as she eyed the empty seat in front of her.
Chloé: Ugh, he should have been here by now.
-------------------------------------------------------
Just right outside the school, panting is heard as shoes slam against concrete.
He turned when he thought he heard something but then continued to run, just as he stepped onto the stairs a car screeched to a stop at the causing the blonde boy to turn around in shock as two people exit the car.
???: Adrien, please stop! Your father is furious!
The boy revealed to be "Adrien" turns fully to face the woman with a defiant glimmer in his eyes.
Adrien: I know, Natalie but, this is what I wanna do! And you helped me sign up, so please let him see that I'll be fine.
Just as he turned to rush up the stairs, a groan came from the side, he turned and saw an old man on the sidewalk, the man crumbled to his knees and his Caine just out of reach. A familiar old man. Fu.
Without thinking Adrien rushes to the man, he picks up his cane and hands it to the man before helping him up.
Fu: Thank you, young man.
The blonde boy smiled before turning back to the school to see the woman dubbed "Natalie" and his body guard "Gorilla" blocking the stairs. Adrien dropped his head as he approached them.
Adrien: Just wanna go to school like everybody else. What's so wrong with that?
Natalie places a hand on Adriens' shoulder as they get in car and leave all the while Fu watches them with smile.
Then he leaves as he starts whistling and tossing his cane on his shoulder.
-------------------------------------------------------
RING!
Most of the students begin to pack up as the bell rings and move out the classroom. The athletically dressed boy passes a note to the big one wearing black.
Ms. Bustier: Those of you who have P.E., Mr. D'Argencourt is expecting you at the stadium. The rest of you can head over to the library-...
???: Kim!
Ms. Bustier: Ivan, what is going on?
The big one in black now known as "Ivan" glances between the athletic boy known as "Kim".
Ivan: It's Kim! I'm so gonna get-...
He rolls back his fist only to get cut off.
Ms. Bustier: Ivan, go to the principal Damoclès' office!
Shooting a nasty glare to Kim who just laughs, Ivan crumples up the paper in a ball before stomping off.
-------------------------------------------------------
Somewhere distant, a large circular window is slowly revealed as the metal panels covering it receded back into the walls.
Ornate patterns formed by metal beams that form the outline of a butterfly.
Light pours in and the butterflies take flight all around the figure in the center. Hawk moth.
Hawk Moth: Negative emotions. This is perfect. Just what I need. Anger, sadness...
He offers his hand and a singular butterfly lands on his hand, re clasps his hand gently over his other one to cover the butterfly.
He gathered his strength, deep, dark purple bubbles forming and and sucking into the clasped hands.
Slowly lifting his hand, the light hit the newly transformed into something new, to something evil.
The corrupted the bug took flight towards the window. Hawkmoth spun his cane over his head before slamming it down.
Hawk Moth: Burn a hole into his heart, my horrible akuma.*Fly away, my little akuma, and evilize him!
The "akuma" flies out the hole in the glass in the center, it flew out into the open world in search for its victim.
-------------------------------------------------------
A long shrill is heard as an airplane takes flight into the sky as the sun beat down on the people on the ground. One among them was just returning.
Wheels of a suitcase grind and roll against concrete as heels click, the roll of wheels is heard as the skateboard they held under their arm rattles.
The person lowered their phone and looked around to allow the sun to hit their face.
???: I can't believe I let mom convince me to come back.
Tom (Distant): Y/N!
You turn your head in the direction of your name being called and spotted your parents in the distance past a few cars.
And couldn't help but form a small smile.
You pocketed your phone and began to rush forward but stopped when you heard a small groan behind you, looking back you saw an old man wobbly walking near a set of stairs. A familiar old man. Fu.
Your eyes widen as without thinking you toss your skateboard forward before jumping onto it and rolling forward.
Fus' foot slipped on the stairs and just before a fell a hand reached out to grab his hand and slowly pull him.
Y/n: Are you okay, sir?!
Fu: Oh, yes. Thank you, young one. Such hospitality from a tourist.
Y/n: Oh, no. I live here, just came back, actually. And, uh, you be safe, okay?... (Looks back at parent's direction, panics, bows to Fu)... Have a nice day, sir.
With that you run off as Fu watches with a smile, he watched as you ran into your parents arms, Sabine pulling you down to kiss your cheeks much to your embarrassment before Tom lifts you up in a tight hug.
Fu laughed before walking of, straight as a line while spinning his cane.
-------------------------------------------------------
Principal Damoclès was doing paperwork in his office as the door open and Ivan stepped in a bad mood.
Mr. Damoclès: Excuse me, young man. Hasn't anyone ever taught you to knock? Go on. Out you go, try it again. Knock.
Ivans' mood only worsens from the punishment, he steps back out, his fist tightening around the paper as he stepped out and closed the door.
A familiar corrupted butterfly flies into view and around Ivan as he stands angrily in front of the door.
The akuma flies towards Ivans' fist and slams against the paper, being reduced into nothing but bubbles as the paper becomes coated in deep purple energy.
Ivan raised his head, his face unnaturally red as a glowing outline of a mask appears over his face.
Hawk Moth (Akuma): Stoneheart, I am Hawk Moth. I give you the power to seek revenge...
-------------------------------------------------------
Back at his base, Hawk Moth had the same mask glowing over his face as he communicated through the akuma.
Hawk Moth:... on those who have wronged you.
-------------------------------------------------------
Ivan: Okay, Hawk Moth.
With a evil grin on his face, purple amorphous energy oozes out of the corrupted paper and all over his body.
-------------------------------------------------------
The principal sat waiting for Ivan to knock, but his patience was wearing thin
Mr. Damoclès: Well, come on in.
BAM!
Damoclès yelps as he flies out of his chair from the force of the door and a significant portion of the wall gets slammed to the floor and now stands someone new in Ivans' place. Stoneheart.
Stoneheart: KIM!
-------------------------------------------------------
At the library, Marinette and Alya sat at a table, the latter showing the former something on her phone as students move around them going about their day, when-...
BAM!
The entire school shook, Marinette and Alya were thrown out of their chairs as students ran around in panic.
Marinette groaned as she rubbed her head from the tumble.
Alya: Come on!
The blue-haired girl is pulled to her feet by her wrist by Alya as said girl pulls her to the center of the library where a TV on the wall showed security footage of Stoneheart.
Who was now marching down the sidewalk and onto the street, a car screeches to a stop at his feet, the people quickly run out as he roared. The students murmur among themselves.
-------------------------------------------------------
Stoneheart: KIM!
The principal peeked out of the gaping hole in his wall to look at Stonehearts' rampage while he had a phone pressed to his ear.
Mr. Damoclès: Hello? Is this the police? Get me the army!
-------------------------------------------------------
Marinette: Wh-What's going on? He had Ivan's voice?
Alya: It's as if he's been transformed into a real-life supervillain!
Marinette gave her friend a weird look from the excited tone in her voice, said excited girl began checking her phone.
Alya: GPS. Check! Battery. Check! I am so outta here!
She ran to the door much to her friend's panic.
Marinette: Hey! Where are you going?!
The dark-skinned girl stopped at the door to look back one last time.
Alya: Where there's a supervillain, there's always a superhero close behind! No way I'm missing this!
With the she runs of as Marinette looks back at the security camera screen just as Stoneheart picks up a car and throw it at the security camera.
Marinette winces at the school shakes once more.
Stoneheart (Distant): KIM!
-------------------------------------------------------
Outside the iron gates and large stone wall of a mansion stood Fu. He looked down at his hand in which he held another small Miracle Box.
Inside the mansion, the Agreste mansion, Adrien was sat alone at the end a of a long table, a pen in between his lips as Natalie paced around him with a clipboard in hand.
Nathalie: Who was the first president of the 5th French Republic?
Adrien (Bored): Everyone thinks it was de Gaulle, but it was actually... (Yawns)... René Coty before the first elections.
Nathalie: Excellent, Adrien.
She gave the boy a small proud smile, but it was quickly cut short by the door at the far end of the room opening and catching both of them by suprise.
Natalie: Gabriel, sir?
A rough voice cut through the room, with little formality in it.
Gabriel: Give me a minute, would you, Nathalie?
She glanced between father and son before nodding and stepping to the side.
Gabriel: You are not going to school. I've already told you.
Adrien: But Father-...
He stands up only to be cut off by his father with a simple lift of his hand, Gabriels' voice echoing like a hammer in the vast room.
Gabriel: Everything you need is right here where I can keep an eye on you. I will not have you outside in that dangerous world.
Adrien: It's not dangerous, Father. I'm always stuck in here by myself. Why can't I go out and make friends just like everybody else?
Gabriel: Because you are not like everyone else! You are my son! Continue.
And without another word Gabriel turned away, the door clicking shut echoing in the room.
Not even bothering to hear what his son had to say, because what he said is what happened in this house.
He was the monarch.
The assistant glanced towards Adrien, his knuckles pressed to the hardwood of the long table, his blonde hair fallen over his eyes, but his expression was easy to judge by his shacking shoulders.
Nathalie: We can leave it there for today if you have-...
She steps forward and reaches for his shoulder on for Adrien runs away without a word. Like feather, like son.
-------------------------------------------------------
Marinette rushes up her stairs in such a panic she didn't even greet her parents, she pushed up her trapdoor, entered her room before shutting the door and sighing in relief that she was back in her room.
Marinette: Finally... Safe...
Her pink chair spins around to reveal you with one leg crossed over the other and finger tips pressed together.
Y/n: Hello there, sister...
A yelp comes from the girl as she tumbles onto her back, she quickly scrambles to her feet.
Marinette: Y/n! Y-You're back...
Y/n: Yes...
The girl glances out, crossing her arms and tapping her arm awkwardly.
Marinette: So... How you been?...
A long awkward silence falls over both of you as Marinette stands there with a large forced grin. You stand up and walked over to the ladder leading to the beds.
Y/n: I'm going to the roof.
Marinette: Wait, there's this, uh, supervillain on the loose and-...
The trapdoor leading to the roof shuts behind you and Marinette slumps before she drops onto her chair.
Marinette: Glad to see he hasn't changed.
-------------------------------------------------------
Y/n: Glad to see she hasn't changed.
You fall down on the chair on the roof before pulling out your phone.
-------------------------------------------------------
Back at the Agreste mansion, specifically Adriens' large room, his school supplies were spilled out on the floor after he had raged out.
Now laying flat on his bed, face buried in pillow after he was done raging.
He didn't understand why he wasn't allowed, he didn't understand why he wasn't allowed to make any other friends, he didn't understand why he was different-!...
CRASH!
The ground shook as Adrien heard commotion outside.
He jumped out of bed, out his room, down the stairs and out the large double doors and saw police stationed outside the iron gates as Stoneheart approced.
All of them had tasers trained on the villain as he approached and a police officer was stood on a van to give the order.
Officer: Ready? Fire!
The police fires at Stoneheart, but the tasers don't to anything to him, but the second they stop Stoneheart glowed yellow and grew larger.
He roared as the police ran, his shadow casted over the policeman on the van. The man jumped off and ran only for Stoneheart to pick up the van and toss it in his direction.
The van crashed behind the man and caused him to tumble onto his own arm harshly.
Stoneheart: KIM!
The blonde boy's eyes widened before he rushed back towards his room, he vaulted over the sofa, lands on it with enough force to bounce the remote, he catches it and turns on his TV.
It showed footage of the mayor at city hall.
Mayor (TV): I'm asking all Parisians to stay home until this situation is under control.
News Crews (TV): Mr. André Bourgeois. Mr. Bourgeois!
The mayor now dubbed "André" panic as the news crew swarm him with questions as the screen shrink to reveal a news reporter dubbed "Nadja" by the title.
Nadja (TV): As incredible as it seems, it's been confirmed that Paris is indeed being attacked by a supervillain. The police have been struggling to keep the situation under control. We now go to an interview with officer Roger.
The news changed to show the officer that had just been facing off with Stoneheart on the van outside, but now with his arm in a cast.
Roger (TV): Be confident, the strong arm of the law will come crashing down on the-!...
The officer dubbed "Roger" raised his injured arm in his excitement. He winces in pain.
Roger (TV): I mean, the other arm.
-------------------------------------------------------
In Marinettes' room. Marinette is cowering on her seat as she watched the news on her computer.
Marinette: I hate first days back at school.
-------------------------------------------------------
Y/n: Well, my first day back sure won't be as boring as I thought.
You watched the news on your phone, your phone lowered slightly and you noticed something on the small circular wooden table on the roof.
A small black hexagonal box with blood red designs on the lid.
Y/n: Huh?
-------------------------------------------------------
Downstairs, Marinette glanced down in fear and noticed something on her desk.
A small black hexagonal box with blood red designs on the lid.
Marinette: Huh?
-------------------------------------------------------
Noticing something off from the corner of his eye, Adrien glanced down and saw something on the table in front of the couch.
A small black hexagonal box with blood red designs on the lid.
Adrien: Huh?
-------------------------------------------------------
Y/n, Marinette & Adrien: What's this doing here?
All of you picked up your Miraculous Boxes and opened them.
-------------------------------------------------------
A loud violet light bursts out and gets in your face, you yelp and drop the box before shielding your face.
------------------------------------------------------
A bright pinkish red light erupts out and gets in Marinettes' face, she yelps drops the box and pushes away from the table while shielding her face.
-------------------------------------------------------
A blinding lime green light bursts out, Adrien shields his face slightly and leans back.
-------------------------------------------------------
You stop shielding your face as the light dims, your jaw dropped slightly and eyes wide as a small being emerges from the center of the light.
???: Greet-...
BAM!
The gentle and formal voice gets cut off as the bird-like thing falls to the ground after you whacked it's head with the dull side of a garden knife on instinct and fear.
-------------------------------------------------------
The red glow fades as Marinettes' jaw drops, she watches as the central white core also fades away and now something new stands - Or rather floats - their.
She jumps out of her chair while yelling and pressing herself against the side of the desk.
Marinette: Ahh! Help! It's a giant bug! A-A mouse?-... A bug-mouse!
The small being floated closer, it's voice squeaky, yet light and gentle.
Bug-Mouse: Everything's okay! Don't be scared.
Marinette: Ahh! Bug-mouse talks!
She begins throwing things at floating thingy, which it dodges.
-------------------------------------------------------
Adriens' eyes slowly adjust and slightly heal from the blinding light, he lowers his hand as the light vanishes and in it's place floats a small black cat like being.
It stretches and yawns to reveal to lone fangs. Adrien leans in from intrigue with a smile and slowly inches his finger towards the thingy.
Adrien: No way. Like the genie in the lamp!
Plagg: I met him once. So he grants wishes. Big deal! I'm way more personable! Plagg. Nice to meet you... (Looks to his right)... Ooh, swanky.
The slightly raspy voiced cat-like being dubbed "Plagg" flies to the side towards a foosball table.
Adrien (Out Of View): No! Don't touch that! Hey, Come back here!
The small floating cat lands on one of the foosball players.
Plagg: Ooh! So shiny! Can you eat this?... (Bites player's head)... Argh, no, you can't!... (Looks to the side)... Ooh, what about this?
He flies off to the side where two arcade cabinets rested against the wall and bit on the bright red joystick to no avail.
Adrien lunged to stop Plagg only for him to fly off somewhere else, the blonde boy groaned.
-------------------------------------------------------
The small bird-like being came to with a small groan to be met with the point of a knife pressed to it's small stomach.
Y/n: Talk or you're tonight's dinner.
???: I believe we have gotten on the wrong foot, new master.
The bird thingy floats through the knife and gets in your face, you yelp and fall back against the chair while holding out the knife with a shacking hand.
Y/n: I swear if Marinette is playing a prank on me!-...
Rirri: They are not, and it would be better if this "Marinette" didn't know I exist... I am Rirri, Master.
You raised an eyebrow and slowly lower the knife.
-------------------------------------------------------
Downstairs, Marinette is backed against the table and sink near the trapdoor by her own panic as the small red being floats nearby, all the while the human continues throwing things at the small being.
???: Listen, Marinette. I know everything may seem a bit strange to you.
Marinettes' hand flails all over the sink in search for something before her hand finally lands on a glass, she lunges for and traps the small being in the glass cup. All the while the thingy was unbothered.
??? (Muffled): Okay, if that makes you feel safer.
Marinette: What are you? And how do you know my name?
Tikki (Muffled): I am a kwami, and my name is Tikki. Now just let me explain.
-------------------------------------------------------
Plagg is floating high in the center of the room while nibbling on the TV remote all the while Adrien climbs his rock climbing wall in the back.
When he gets to the highest point, he jumps forward and catches Plagg, catching, Plagg yells in surprise.
The blonde boy lands on the couch flat on his stomach with Plagg clutched in his hands.
Adrien: I still don't know what you're doing here.
Plagg (Bored): Look, I'm a kwami. I grant powers. Yours is the power of destruction, got it?
Adrien (Shakes head): Nuh-Uh.
Plagg: Good... (Looks around)... Now, got anything to eat? I'm starving.
The blonde boy sits up on his knees on the couch.
Adrien: My dad's pranking me, right?-... Wait, he couldn't be. He has no sense of humor.
With a sudden small surge of seriousness Plagg phases out Adriens' hands and gets to eye level.
Plagg: Your father must never know that I exist! Or anyone for that matter.
-------------------------------------------------------
You paced around while Rirri floated in place and eyed you.
Y/n: So, just so we're clear. You're a magic thingy called a "Kwami" that grant powers, and mine is...
Rirri: Tension.
You raise an eyebrow which causes the small bird-like kwami to sigh.
Rirri: It's also called balance. It grants you partial control over reality.
Y/n: Uh-huh. So why do I have to do it? There are countless other people and countless adults who can do it.
Rirri: Because a Miraculous is not something anyone can just wield.
She stares zipping around your head much to your headache.
Rirri: The Ladybug must be given to someone who is smart enough to figure out the power of creation, the Black Cat must be given to someone careful who knows the power they carry, the butterfly must be given to someone charismatic and persuasive. The fox-...
Y/n (Annoyed): I get it.
She zips to your face.
Rirri: But if the holder and Miraculous are not compatible than the Miraculous could malfunction and not work properly, you could randomly gain and lose powers... But that can also happen if the Kwami doesn't like you.
You nodded, paying only partial attention as she zips to the side with a drill sargent like motions.
Rirri: But It also comes with great power and responsibility... (Your eyes widen)... and-...
You hold out a hand to quiet her.
Y/n: Yeah, I'm gonna stop you right there, bud... Me and responsibility don't go together.
-------------------------------------------------------
Downstairs, Marinette isn't buying it as she reaches for her trapdoor and attempts to open it.
Marinette: Mom! Dad!
Tikki: No, no, no! Shh! No!... (Phases through glass and flies to Marinettes' face)... I'm your friend, Marinette. You must trust me. You're the only one who can stop Stoneheart...
Marinettes' mouth was agape as she watched Tikki with glossy eyes.
-------------------------------------------------------
Fu eyed the Miracle Box, now missing the Crow, Ladybug and Black Cat Miraculous along with Butterfly and weirdly enough, also the Peacock Miraculous.
He contemplated his decision even though he knew it was to late, and his kwami did little to help his turmoil.
Wayzz: Do you think they'll be up to it, Master?
Fu: I will not repeat the mistakes of my past, nor will I make new ones... At least I hope not.
With a sigh he closes the box and it sinks down into the gramophone.
-------------------------------------------------------
Rirri: But you can't deny it! You're the Chosen One!
Y/n: Well, I chose not to do it. Sorry, birdie, but I don't do "responsibility"...
You looked down at the Crow Miraculous in your hand, you placed it on your thumb before flipping it in the air and grabbing it, you whip your arm back and get ready to throw it halfway across the city.
Rirri: Wait! It can give you a new life!
You glanced at the kwami as she floated to your head and you slowly lowered your head.
Rirri: It can give you a second chance, make you someone new... A new chance without any wait. And that far out ways the miniscule "responsibility". Pfft...
She braced herself after telling you the technical truth, you eyed the ring in your palm before a small smirk made it onto your face.
-------------------------------------------------------
Marinette: This must be some mistake! The only superpower I could possibly have is super-awkwardness.
She lowered her head as she sat on her knees on the trapdoor, Tikki floating at eye level.
Marinette: I know! Alya would know! That's my friend. Well, at least I think she would. She loves superheroes! She'd totally be up for the job! You should totally go see her!
The kwami zips to Marinettes' face which causes her to flinch and recoil.
Tikki: Marinette, you're the chosen one!
-------------------------------------------------------
Adrien: But I'm stuck here!
He stood a few paces away from his couch.
Adrien: I'm not even allowed to go to school! What good is a superhero who's imprisoned in his own house?
Plagg: No good.
He gives Plagg a deadpan as he rolls by on toilet paper roll, unrolling it all over the floor.
Plagg: That's why it's all going to change soon.
Adrien looks down at the ring in his palm.
Plagg (Out Of View): If you're willing to change, that is.
A determined look gets plastered on Adriens' face.
-------------------------------------------------------
You dig the ring into the bridge of your nose, a purple flash passes over it as it disguises itself as a thin metal ring.
Y/n: So, how do I do this?
You turned to the small being that floated near your head.
Rirri: "Wings Up". Now... (Zips to the side with her back to you)... Allow me to tell you how your powers work and-...
Y/n: Wings Up, Huh?-...
A purple shine glosses over the Miraculous on your nose.
Rirri: No! No! No! Wait!-...
She suddenly flies backwards at you in such a speed she looks like a purple ball of pure energy she slams into your face as purple energy blurs the world around you into rushing nonsense
All of this causing you to stumble backwards against the railings.
Y/n: Hey!-...
You look around to see your kwami gone.
Y/n: Rirri?
Your vision registers the bang infront of your face and you look down at yourself.
Y/n: Woah...
Y/n (Suited Up): Cool~.
looking out to the city, you smirked.
You braced crouched on the railings, your heels clicking against the metal as you stood up and spread out your arms.
Y/n (Suited Up): Let's do this.
You backflip off the rooftop railing, time seemed to slow down as you felt the air whoosh past you and-...
CRASH!
You groan while peeling your back off the pavement.
Y/n (Suited Up): Seriously? What kind off bird can't fly?
Stumbling to your feet, your break out into a small sprint to the left.
-------------------------------------------------------
The earrings of the Ladybug rest in Marinettes' palm as she sighs before putting them on.
Marinette: Okay, so all I have to do is break the object where the whatchama-call-it is hiding?
She eyes the kwami in the reflection of the mirror before turning to her.
Tikki: It's called an akuma. Which you must capture.
Marinette: Got it! Capture it.
Marinette: And what's that charm thing again?
Tikki: Your Lucky Charm! It's your superpower.
A small groan came from the girl as she waved her hands.
Marinette: This is all going too fast, Tikki. I-I... won't be able to pull this off...
Tikki: Trust yourself, Marinette. Just say "Spots On".
Marinette: Spots on?
A red shine passes over the Miraculous on her ears.
Tikki squeaks as she zooms into nothing but ball of pinkish red energy and the same energy surrounds Marinette in a sort of rushing nonsense realm.
-------------------------------------------------------
Marinette: Whoa! What is happening?!
Wind rushes past Marinette causing her bangs to flair up as Tikki slams into the earrings.
A red mask with polkadots forms on Marinettes' panicking face.
Bubbling creation energy flowing down her arms and then get legs, coating them similarly to her mask.
-------------------------------------------------------
Adrien's slides on the Cat Miraculous in his ring finger. Plagg pops out from an empty toilet paper roll.
Plagg: "Claws Out!" That's how you transform.
Adrien: Got it!
-------------------------------------------------------
Adrien: Plagg!
He thrusts out his fist with the disguised Cat Miraculous on it, the metallic disguise chips away and remains now it's true obsidian form as the world blurs into a green glowing rush around him.
Adrien: Claws Out!
-------------------------------------------------------
Plagg: No, wait! I haven't finished explaining!-...
Despite his efforts by holding onto the empty roll, Plaggs' voice trail off as he gets sucked into the rings.
-------------------------------------------------------
Plagg gets sucked up into the ring, Adrien raises and flares his ring adorned hand above his head as it crackles with energy before a green glowing paw pad appears on it.
He trails the destructively charged ring over his face to form a mask.
Raising his hand to his head he tapped his hair to grow artificial cat-like ears.
He throws his arms to the side, energy glossing over his body and across his arms, he clenched his left hand in a fist when the suit covered it.
Spinning around as the suit grows to cover his feet and form boots.
He curls up before convulsing his body, destructive energy shooting out from his lower back before whipping and slithering back in the form of a belt and wrapping around his waist to act like a tail.
He crouched down, before raising up clawing and slashing forward before smiling and-...
-------------------------------------------------------
Adrien (Suited Up): Too cool!
-------------------------------------------------------
Back with Marinette...
Marinette (Suited Up): How does this thing come off?... (Walks around)... Tikki! If you can hear me, I want my normal clothes back. I'm not going anywhere!
She turns to her computer when she hears the news.
Nadja (TV): After breaking the shuttle tower, Stoneheart is heading towards the Montparnasse tower. The monster seems to be unstoppable!
Barely noticeable in the corner, much to her horror, Marinette sees a familiar face going after Stoneheart on a cycle and gasps.
Marinette (Suited Up): Alya?
Sabine (Downstairs): Marinette! Did you get home okay?
Marinette (Suited Up): Uhh... yeah, Mom! Just super!
She panics, not wanting her mother to see her like this so she rushes up to her bed and onto the roof, completely not registering that you were gone. Sabine lifts the trapdoor to peek into the room.
Sabine (Downstairs): Marinette? Y/n? You in here? Tom, we better call the school.
The newly masked Marinette walks to the corner of the roof.
Marinette (Suited Up): Okay, I have special powers. And apparently this amazing super yo-yo thingy?
She grabs the yo-yo from her side, she plays with it for a second before spinning it around and throwing it, it's string seemingly never ending as it eventually wraps itself around the ear of gargoyle statue on the side of building.
Marinette give the strings a few good pulls before it suddenly pulls her, she screams as she's fling across the city.
-------------------------------------------------------
On the rooftops, boots on metal could be heard as Adrien walked from rooftop to rooftop, using his extendable staff like a tight rope.
Adrien (Suited Up): I'm starting to get the hang of this.
Hearing distant screaming he looks up to see the masked Marinette flying through the sky and straight towards him.
He had little time to panic as she crashed into him and they both fell rapidly while yelling.
-------------------------------------------------------
You whoop as you run down the street, slowly slowing down.
Y/n (Suited Up): Wow, I can run.
Hearing yelling you looked up and your eyed panicked when as the masked Adrien and Marinette fell towards you and-...
SLAM!
You fell backward on your butt while rubbing your head as the masked duo swung around,
Marinettes' yo-yo had wrapped itself around Adriens' staff.
The two swung like pendulum, wrapped up in the string of the yo-yo.
Adrien (Suited Up): Well, hey there. Nice of you to drop in.
Marinette (Suited Up): Oh, I'm sorry, I didn't do it on purpose.
The two hear someone clearing their throat, both of them turned to see you on the ground.
Y/n (Suited Up): Geez. They airdrop idiots in Paris now?
The two of them untangle from each other as you stand up, the masked Adrien landed on the ground before slowly rising.
Adrien (Suited Up): I bet you're the partners my kwami told me about.
He turns away while stroking his chin before turning back with a smile.
Cat Noir: I'm... Cat Noir. Yeah, Cat Noir. And you?
Marinette (Suited Up): I'm Ma... err... Mar... uhh...
She groans as she tries to pull her tightly wrapped yo-yo away from Cat Noirs' staff.
Eventually she succeeded, the staff having shrunk and both her yo-yo and the staff smacked Cat Noir on the head, he vigorously rubbed his head as you point and laugh.
Marinette (Suited Up): Madly Clumsy. I'm so clumsy.
Cat Noir: No sweat... (Picks up staff)... clumsy girl. I'm learning the ropes too... (Turns to you)... And you?
You glance all around yourself.
Y/n (Suited Up): I'm... A work in progress...
Cat Noir shrugged when the ground suddenly shook, the trio turned to the distance and saw a building crashing down into dust.
The black cat took multiple steps back, extending his staff to javalin length, he rushed forward, stabbed it in the ground and lifted himself in the air before extending the staff to land on a rooftop.
Marinette (Suited Up): Hey! Wait, where are you going?
Cat Noir: To save Paris, right?
He leaps away.
Y/n (Suited Up): How are you doing that?!
Cat Noir (Distant): Trust in yourself!
You and the masked Marinette glanced at each other.
Marinette (Suited Up): Ugh... (Mumbling)... Trust yourself, trust yourself.
She spins the yo-yo before throwing it towards and swinging over with yell.
Watching with wide eyes before you looked down at the dagger hanging at your hip, you pick it up, the chain rattled.
You wrapped some of chains around your arms before you began to spin the dagger, eventually with a yell you throw it and it stabs into the side of a distant building.
With a grin you tugged the chain only to get flung across the city with a scream.
-------------------------------------------------------
At a large stadium, the students are done with P.E. A few already leaving, one - the one with glasses and overalls - was picking up the cones and two students were finishing up workouts, the girl dressed in pink and Kim.
The stadium shook, everyone turned to see a large silhouette blocking out the sun.
Stoneheart: KIM!
The students ran while scream as Stoneheart jumped down, causing Kim to fall onto his rear.
Stoneheart: So, who's the wuss now?
Quickly scrambling to his feet, Kim runs off with Stoneheart chasing him.
Just as the stone giant is about to grab the small boy, a metal pole extends past Stonehearts' face and slams down to stop him.
Kim looks to his side as Cat Noir hops down.
Cat Noir: Hey, it's not very nice to pick on people who are smaller than you.
Kim runs off as Stoneheart gets to his feet.
Stoneheart: I guess you're talking about yourself.
He lunges to grab the cat only for him to jump to the side, then Stoneheart tries to crush him but Cat Noir hops away again.
-------------------------------------------------------
Hawk Moth: Everything's going to plan. Ladybug and Cat Miraculous have been activated. Here they come to save the day, and now my supervillain will destroy them.
He evil laughed, already expecting victory.
-------------------------------------------------------
Stoneheart slams his hand down, but Cat Noir lucky evades, jumping up and whacking him back with his staff.
But the stone giant barely budged, but he did get a lot bigger.
Cat Noir: Where are you, partners?!
Metal thuds as Marinette lands on the roof of the stadium while panting before being followed by you.
Marinette (Suited Up): Oh, I can't. I'm not gonna be able to do it.
She looks to the side and panics when she spotted Alya at an entrance recording everything.
You looked down at the battle before looking at your blade, you eyed the icon and pressed it. The chain got sucked up into the hilt and the blade extended into a short sword and chuckle left you.
Y/n (Suited Up): Ho-Ho-Ho. Cavalry's here, Kitty!
You jumped down onto a goal, Stoneheart roared and punched towards you, you front flipped and landed on his head before slashing at him.
But that only mad him bigger...
He waved his head and threw you off, you landed next to Cat Noir.
Cat Noir: Great going, birdie.
Y/n (Suited Up): Shut up, kitty.
Stoneheart ripped the goal you had landed on from the ground and threw at you two, both of you jumped away but the goal bounced forward and went straight to Alya.
Cat Noir lucky spotted her, he tossed his staff, it extended to brace itself the ledges of the stands, the goal bounces off the staff and lands somewhere else.
The staff clatter next to Alya as she sighs in relief, Cat Noir smiled only to get grabbed up by Stoneheart.
You groan and rush at Stoneheart, you jumped up, blade above your head only to get, he punched at you, you braced your heels against his stone knuckles before backflipping off, only to get punched straight in the spine with his other fist that sent you flying to the other goal.
Marinette watched from her place up top, Cat Noir struggling in Stonehearts' grip and you laying in the goal.
Alya (Out Of View): What are you waiting for, super red bug?!
Marinette flinched before turning to Alya.
Alya: The world is watching you!
Marinettes' eyes shrunk in fear as she glanced around from, Alya, Stoneheart, Cat Noir, you.
Her fingers tightened around her yo-yo, she was scared and panicked. She didn't know what to do.
??? (Echoing): Don't be scared...
Her eyes widen as a memory washes over.
??? (Echoing): Because even if you can't see me, trust me. I'll always be with you.
Marinettes' eyes widen as the words wash over and new wave of courage.
With a huff, she jump off her yo-yo swinging wildly, she tosses it and the yo-yo wraps itself around a pole, Marinette swings herself down and tosses her yo-yo once more, she slides past Stonehearts' legs while wrapping them up and sliding infront of youm
Marientte (Suited Up): Animal cruelty? How shameful!
She pulls the strings and trips Stoneheart, Cat Noir slips from his grip and rolls over to the masked Marinette as you also slowly stand up.
Alya (Out Of View): Yes!
Marientte (Suited Up): Sorry it took so long, Cat Noir.
She helps him to his feet as he shakes off some dirt.
Cat Noir: It's cool, Wonderbug. Now, let's kick his rocky behind!
He rushes to Stoneheart alone to get brutally stopped by his tail, looking back to see his savior holding before slowly letting go.
Marinette (Suited Up): Wait! Haven't you noticed? He gets bigger and stronger with every attack. We have to do something different.
Y/n (Suited Up): Different how?
Marinette (Suited Up): Uhhh... I don't know.
Cat Noir: Okay then. Let's use our powers.
-------------------------------------------------------
The rings glows as Cat Noir crosses his arms across his face as the world returns to the rushing green magic void.
Cat Noir: Cataclysm!
He tossed his hand up as destructive energy bubbles, boils and orbits around his hand while forming a orb in the middle.
And then he proceeded to close his hands into fists, the energy of destruction erupts out, sounding like the sharpening of claws.
He slashes the air in front of him, slashes above him before her takes a loaded crouch with his elbows bent at his sides and fists ready.
Destructive energy bursts out of him as he poses.
-------------------------------------------------------
Cat Noir: Apparently I destroy whatever I touch.
Marinette (Suited Up, Mumbles): I don't need a superpower to destroy everything.
Cat Noir turns to the goal and leans forward.
Marinette (Suited Up): No, don't do that!-...
To late, he touched the metal and the effect was instant, rust growing all over the thing before it ages to dust.
Y/n (Suited Up): Wicked...
Cat Noir: I know, right.
He breaks out into a full sprint towards Stoneheart.
Cat Noir: It's just you and me now! Time to rumble, soon-to-be rubble!
Marinette (Suited Up): Cat Noir! Wai-...
You clamp your hand over her mouth.
Y/n (Suited Up): No, no. Let it happen.
Continuing to charge, Cat Noir takes a massive leap into the air before slamming his open palm down on the stone giant's foot.
Only to realize that nothing happen. No destruction juice.
He looked up at Stoneheart with an awkward smile.
Cat Noir: Uh-oh. I guess I only get one shot to use my power.
He waved sheepishly only for Stoneheart to kick him back into the goal. Cat Noir stands up with groan.
Marinette (Suited Up): And you only have five minutes before you transform back. Didn't your kwami explain anything to you?
Cat Noir: I guess I was a little excited about my new life.
Y/n (Suited Up): Well, I wasn't.
With that you broke out into sprint towards Stoneheart as Marinette groaned.
Marinette (Suited Up): Seriously both of you stop! We need a plan, uh.
Y/n (Suited Up): Don't need a plan when reality is on your leash!
You jumped high into the air.
Crownos: And call me Crownos.
-------------------------------------------------------
You take a wide stance, your arms crossed over your face before you trusted them to the side as the world changed to the purple rushing realm once more.
Crownos: Reverence!-...
-------------------------------------------------------
Your eyes widened as eternal silence followed, you looked around. No longer in the stadium or the rushing realm.
You were floating in the middle of the some endless darkness, looking around when suddenly-...
BANG!
A universe sized pure white explosion happens right in front of your face, you yell and fall backwards when meteors rush past you.
You jumped onto a giant one and ran up it before jumping off as said giant meteor slammed into a blue and green planet, transforming it to lava and charcoal.
Another scream escapes you as you clutched your head, your brain feeling enormous inside your tiny skull.
Multiple voices echoed as countless voices echo all around.
As it reached an apex, iy felt like your brain was about to explode, you waved your hands to cancel the power.
Your knees collided with the grass of the stadium, you slowly looked up as a shadow passed over you.
You weren't sure if it were tears or an oncoming migraine but you couldn't see clearly.
And then Stoneheart proceeded to kick you right into Cat Noir. Marinette sighed.
Marinette (Suited Up): Well, up to me.
-------------------------------------------------------
She steps back with her arms crossed over her face, her yo-yo gripped in her hand as the world returned to the pinkish red rushing magic realm.
Marinette (Suited Up): Lucky Charm!
She tosses up the yo-yo, it spins extended and suspended high in the air as magical ladybugs spraed out from her yo-yo.
The ladybugs fly upwards in loops before colliding together and forming...
A skin tight latex suit.
-------------------------------------------------------
The suit drops down and Marinette catches it.
Cat Noir (Teasing): Super power?
Marinette (Suited Up): My kwami told me I have to break the object where the whatchama-call-it-... The akuma is hiding.
Cat Noir: Well, he's made entirely out of stone.
Ladybug: His right hand, it's still closed. He never opens it. The object isn't on him, it's hidden in his fist!
Cat Noir: So what's your plan?
She humms as she looks around for anything to use.
Stoneheart's right arm...
Alya...
Cat Noir...
Crownos...
And a hose...
Marinette (Suited Up): This!
She grabs the hose and ties it to the suit. You suddenly jolt back to consciousness.
Cat Noir: Welcome back to the land of the living.
You suddenly bolt to your feet, look around in a panic before attempting to run off, but the masked Marinette catches your wrist.
Crownos: I can't do this! This was a mistake!
Marinette (Suited Up): Hey. I get it... Your scared, but it's okay. We'll do it together.
You glanced back at her in a panic before looking at the smirking Cat Noir before you slowly sighed.
Crownos: Lets... Get this over with...
Marinette ties Cat Noir's feet with her yo-yo catching him surprise.
Marinette (Suited Up): Don't resist. Trust me.
She spins around, spinning Cat Noir around by his feet
Cat Noir: This girl's crazy!
He gets flung at Stoneheart, who catches him with his left hand.
Marinette (Suited Up): Catch me if you can!
Both you and Marinette rushed forward, the suit with the hose in her hand, she turns to you.
Marinette (Suited Up): Confuse him!
You both jumped in opposite directions, Stone heart glances around confused, he swings his fists at you both but you both dodge, eventually he roars in frustration.
Marinette backflips towards you as you hold your ground and cross your arms over your head, the masked Marinette lands on your arms and you whip them to help her gain extra momentum.
Stoneheart reached out and grabbed Marinette, along with the suit with his right hand, in the process dropping the akumatized object, you made a break for it only to get pinned under the stone giant's foot.
Marinette (Suited Up): And now... Alya, the tap!
Alya turns to her right and sees a tap, rushing forward she opens it goes to the water tap with a hose connected to it and opens it. The water rushes through the pipe and towards the suit, it sprouts and inflates with such intensity that it forces Stone hearts' fist open.
Marinette jumps down and rushes over to the akumatized object, she picks up the paper before tearing it in half. The akuma flies out of the paper and flies away as Marinette watched with a smile.
Viscous bubbles appear all over Stoneheart once more, but when they disappear Ivan and Cat Noir are suspended in the air for a second before both of them fall down.
The cat Miraculous holder turns to the girl standing a few paces away from him with a gaze full of wonder.
Cat Noir: This girl is awesome. She's crazy awesome.
You groan as you slowly get up, Cat Noir walks past you towards the red-adorned girl and you slowly follow as Ivan looks around confused.
Ivan: What's going on? What am I doing here?
Cat Noir: You were incredible, Miss... uh... Bug lady. You did it!
Crownos: Admittedly. Nice work...
Marinette (Suited Up): We did it, partners.
All of you glance at each other before thrusting out your fists and pounding them together.
Crownos, Marinette (Suited Up) & Cat Noir: Pound it!
Pulling your fists back, Cat Noirs' Miraculous beeped, two paw pads gone.
Marinette (Suited Up): You should get going. Our identities must remain secret.
Cat Noir: Farewell, m'lady...(Bows)... Let's do this again soon, okay?
He exclaimed as he ran off hopping from the ledge, to the seats before pole extending out of the stadium. A small cheeky giggle lefrt Marinette.
Marinette (Suited Up): Uh-huh. Not too soon, I hope.
Crownos (Darkly, Mumbles): Yeah...
Marinette (Suited Up): Huh? What was that?
Crownos: Ah! Nothing, I should get going to.
You lifted your bang and showed your Miraculous only had three feathers left, with that you ran off, stabbing into the side of the stadium before leaping out.
She watched with a small smile before turning to Ivan who was moping on the ground. Looking down, Marinette saw the purple washing over the torn paper, curiosty got the better of her, she held the two papers together and read it.
Marinette (Suited Up): "You haven't even got the guts to tell Mylène you love her, wuss." Aw.
Ivan: Kim wrote it. He's always making fun of me.
The masked Marinette walks over and places a comforting hand on the boy's shoulder.
Marinette (Suited Up): You know, you shouldn't get so bent out of shape about that. There's no shame in telling someone you love them, Ivan.
Ivan: Hey, how do you know my name, Miss?
A small panic washes over Marinette as she scrambles for words only to be interrupted.
Alya: Uncanny! Amazing! Spectacular!
The two of them turn to see Alya just a few paces away recording.
Alya: Are you gonna be protecting Paris from now on? How did you get your powers? Did you get stung by a radioactive ladybug? Oh, I've got a ton of questions to ask you, uh, Miss... uh...
The masked Marinette slowly stood up, handed Ivan the torn paper and walked a few paces away, and then with her back turned to the camera.
Ladybug: Uh... Ladybug! Call me Ladybug.
With that, Ladybug runs off, throwing her yo-yo to wrap around an unseen item before swinging off.
Alya: Ladybug... Super awesome!
She snapped picture of Ladybug at the last second.
Said picture gets shrunk to the corner of the screen to reveal a news broadcast.
Nadja (TV): So thanks to this amateur footage, the Parisians now know the identities of their heroes!
At her chair, Marinette was hugging her knee with a smile.
Marinette: I did it, Tikki!
The small red kwami zips next to Marinettes' head.
Tikki: You see? You were up to it
She hugs the side of Marinettes' face as they both smile.
Sabine (Downstairs): Marinette! Dinner time!
Tikki remains in her room as Marinette bolts down the stairs, to join her parents and you at the table with the news on the TV.
André (TV): I am pleased to announce that we will be organizing a huge celebration in honor of our city's new protectors..
-------------------------------------------------------
There were four covered platters on Adriens' table, Plagg floated from one to the other.
André (TV): Crownos, Ladybug and Cat Noir.
Adrien: Ladybug. Her name's Ladybug.
The small black kwami floats up to Adrien carrying an sundae.
Plagg: Eww, wee...(Tosses Sundae on floor)... What is this?
Adrien: Seriously? My personal chef made all this!
Plagg: If you expect me to get my energy back after the transformation, I need to eat something more... delicate...
A sigh comes from the blonde boy.
Adrien: Okay, what do you want?
-------------------------------------------------------
The small flutter of wings is heard as the akuma flies high into the air.
It eventually reaches it's destination and perches on top of the Eiffel Tower.
Glowing, crackling energy surrounded it, before-...
WHOOOSH!
-------------------------------------------------------
Marinette was washing the dishes after dinner, you walked up the stairs towards your and Marinettes' room, sliding a small piece of a sandwich in your hoodie but stop and turn when you hear Sabine gasp.
Sabine: Oh my!
Nadja (TV): Just as Paris is about to celebrate the appearance of our three new superheroes, Crownos, Ladybug and Cat Noir...
The footage shows a man posing for a picture in front of the glass pyramid when a akuma flies into him and he gets akumatized into Stoneheart.
Another footage shows a woman running in front of the Eiffel Tower before she also gets akumatized.
More footage shows a man running in the street before he also gets got.
Nadja (TV): a new wave of panic is sweeping across the capital as dozens of people are mysteriously transformed into stone monsters. It's simply unbelievable.
Your parents hold each other as you bolt up the stairs and onto the roof, you watched as multiple akumas flew over you. Rirri floats out from behind your back with a sandwich piece in hand.
Marinette runs into her room and to her own computer.
-------------------------------------------------------
Adrien: Camembert cheese, fantastic. All he eats is Camembert, which means I'm gonna smell like stinky old cheese.
He hears small chatter from the TV, grabs the remote and increases the volume.
Nadja (TV): These victims transformed into stone beings are still like statues. The police are perplexed to what will happen to them. Will they come back to life or be frozen in time forever?
The blonde boy gets to his feet as Plagg pulls his mouth away from pure white outer part of the cheese.
Adrien: Plagg? What's going on? I thought we defeated him.
-------------------------------------------------------
The three kwamis turn to their respective holders.
Rirri, Tikki & Plagg: Did you capture the akuma?
-------------------------------------------------------
Marinette: What's capturing the akuma got to do with the other stone beings?
Tikki: An akuma can multiply, that's why it must be captured. If Ivan's emotions become negative again, then the akuma will turn him back into Stoneheart! He'll control all the stone beings and bring them to life to serve as his army!
Marinette: So that means this is all my fault? I knew it! See, Tikki? I'm not cut out to be a superhero! I'm only gonna keep messing up.
Tikki: Keep calm. It was your first time. You're going to go back and capture Stonehearts' akuma and do it successfully!
Marinette: I can't! I told you, I'm clumsy! I create disaster all the time! I'll only make things worse for me, for you, for everyone. Crownos and Cat Noir will be better off without me...(Turns away)... I'm quitting.
-------------------------------------------------------
Adrien: So I can't do anything without Ladybug?
Plagg: Only Ladybug can capture akumas and repair damage caused by supervillains.
-------------------------------------------------------
Y/n: But why?
Rirri: Purifying an akuma was a power bestowed on the Ladybug Miraculous by a previous holder of mine to stop ancient evil Butterfly holder...
Y/n: So just give the power to Cat Noir.
Rirri: It's not that simple, the balance of the Miraculous is a delicate one, one that has been in turmoil for far to long.
-------------------------------------------------------
Downstairs, the downtrodden blue-haired girl walks up to her mirror.
Marinette: If Cat Noir can't capture the akumas, then just find another Ladybug. I told you, I'm not cut out to be Ladybug...(Reaches for earrings)... I'm sorry Tikki...
Tikki: No, don't do!-...
She takes off the earrings and looks around to see her empty room.
Marinette: ...Tikki?
She puts the earrings back in the small Miracle Box and puts the box in the drawer.
Marinette: I'm really sorry, Tikki.
She crumbles to her knees with her hand pressed to the drawer.
-------------------------------------------------------
Rirri: I'm sure Ladybug will correct her mistake next time.
Y/n: Yeah, buddy. meaning to talk to you about that...
The bird-like kwami turns to you confused.
Y/n: I'm done...
Rirri: What?!
Y/n: You said I would have more freedom then responsibility! I used your power and my head almost blew up!
Rirri: I tried to warn you, master. The power of the Miraculous is not one to be taken lightly. The Crow Miraculous allows you to control reality meaning you are connected to it's well, it requires you to know exactly what you want to do and how to do it.
She floats closer.
Rirri: The past, present, future, every question thaat will ever be asked and every answer that will ever be given, the beginning, the end... It all flows through you in that moment. It is sometimes to much for the mortal mind... I'm sorry...
You huffed and turned your back to her, Rirri lowered her head.
Y/n: I'm sorry, too.
She glanced at you confused but then realized, she zipped forward but with was to late, she blinked out of reality as you turned around the ring in your hand, you sigh.
Loading your arm ready to throw it away, but... That'd be a little to cruel. With a sigh you pocket the ring and fall on the chair.
-------------------------------------------------------
The original akuma flies through the window of Hawk Moths' lair.
Hawk Moth: Ivan has a sensitive heart. It won't be long before anger and sadness strike again...
He raises his cane, the top dome flipping open to allow an akuma to fly into it before closing it.
Hawk Moth: Then we'll see how long you'll remain hidden, Crownos, Ladybug and Cat Noir. Once I have your Miraculous, you will be powerless against me...
-------------------------------------------------------
Ivan is sat at the stairs of the school, listening to music to calm himself.
-------------------------------------------------------
Adrien is sitting on his couch while he worries, his hand pressed to his head while Plagg is in front of him trying to comfort the boy.
-------------------------------------------------------
Marinette remains on her knees in front of her vanity as she contemplates.
-------------------------------------------------------
You were sat on the chair on the roof, your hand massaging your brow.
Hawk Moth (Voice Over): Everyone will be powerless against me! I will have absolute power!
He laughs manically, knowing the approaching dark day.
