You're The Music That's Been Playing In My Head: Book 3

Queen Banana: Part 2

Our snickering at her idea only seemed to enrage Chloé more as she cried out for her dad and we had to change the story under the guise of it being for the good of the film. Now we had Queen Banana which was just Chloé wearing her Queen Bee costume with a yellow skirt over it with a holster holding a banana, yellow cowboy boots, and a yellow hat with a banana clip on the front.

We barely started shooting when Thomas was making another remark about how ridiculous this was. "It's not ridiculous, we're just missing something...I know! I need wheels!" "You don't need a car Chloé, these characters can fly," Marinette points out. "Good point. DADDY!" Another revision and a banana car later the same thing happens, and Chloé is demanding a giant yellow banana-throwing gorilla while trying to save Adrien from the cage we had just put him in.

"Are you sure you wanna do this? You've told me before that you don't like to be confined in one spot," Marinette checks with Adrien again before he's lifted in the air. "It's fine, thanks for checking with me but it's for the good of the film." "What new last-minute changes do you think she'll do next?" Mari sighs as we go to get in position and I shrug. "I'm more curious why Luka's arguing with Thomas," I point to the two arguing next to the dressing trailer before Thomas storms into the trailer and we approach Luka. 

"What was that?" "I told Thomas he needs to apologize to Chloé because every time he makes some remark about her not being a hero she's making a change to the movie to prove him otherwise. If this keeps going we're never gonna finish the movie because he can't keep his mouth shut," Luka explains, furling his eyebrows in anger and I instinctively grab his hand and start rubbing circles over his palm to help calm him down. "It's ok Luka, we'll get him to apologize and get this movie back on track, let's re-group with everyone and explain the situation then-"

"Are you kidding?! I want a real dynamite-slinging gorilla, not some cardboard monkey!" Chloé starts yelling and having had enough Marinette tells her "Chloé giant yellow dynamite-slinging apes don't exist!" "There are tons of giant gorillas doing stuff in all the good movies. Hire one of those. Since you all aren't being cooperative I'm going home. Tomorrow you better have this monkey business figured out!

With that, she's gone and everyone starts discussing what we were supposed to do when Mari proclaims loudly "None of this is for the good of the film, it's not even a film it's just Chloé's fantasy because Thomas wouldn't stop insulting her. First, we're getting Adrien back down and out of the cage then we're gonna shoot the movie our way," So that's what we do, we record, edit, and produce the film so tomorrow we can watch the first screening.

Of course, doing this did come with its consequences because after the screening was over we had to deal with an angry Chloé demanding to know what this was about. Mr. Agreste who was watching the film with us on a tablet explained that he was going to finance the original movie privately. "Sorry, Chloé it was for the good of the film." "Ridiculous! Utterly ridiculous!" Adrien goes after her and when he gets back he explains how insulted she was by Thomas's insults and feeling like we didn't take her and her ideas seriously.

That's when the roof collapses and we see a giant banana-like monkey with a banana car on top of it with Chloé at the top akumatized as Queen Banana as she orders Banana Boom-Boom to attack us and we watch as anyone he touches turns into a banana. I lead as many people as I can further into the building keeping them safe before running off to transform with the excuse of helping the others.

Arriving on the scene I find Ladybug saving Chat from becoming a banana and the three of us duck into a corner. "Careful. Shadowmoth has been very generous to Chloé." "I'm sure he can't rely on her akumatize others much less get herself akumatized anymore," I comment, and Chat chimes in. "I must admit I'm a little jealous of her gear." "Why? Nothing can beat the cat, bear, and ladybug trio," We put in our communicator headphones and try to attack Queen Banana but her car could also shoot bananas, making it difficult to reach her. "We'll we've got gear too. LUCKY CHARM!" A scooter falls down with all the necessary equipment in the seat to fix a flat tire.
