It was the begging of a school week. Monday at first hour. The students of Françoise DuPont High School were arriving to school.
—Hey, Marinette. —Alya said after Nino and she approached Mari
—Hi, guys. How was your weekend?
—Good, thank you. We saw you on TV, yesterday. What happened?
Marinette sighed.
—Did I look terrible? It was Lila's fault!
—Don't worry, at least they called you "Adrien Agreste's girlfriend".
—Talking about him, my dude's is here! —Nino added
—What happened to him? He looks like he hadn't have a good weekend. —Alya said
—He received bad news yesterday and he couldn't sleep. —Marinette answered
—Oh, poor Adrien.
—Hey, guys. —Adrien said and fell on Marinette's shoulder because she was really sleepy
—Did you sleep?
—Hmm... like 2 hours. Maybe.
—Did your father let you come like that?
—He didn't see me because he is busy, you know...
—Yes, Adrien we know he works a lot. —Marinette said interrupting him in case he spilled something
—I don't want to be at home, besides, I don't think everyone realizes I didn't sleep.
The three of them looked at each other knowing that it wasn't a real fact.
—Let's go inside the classroom then.
They all went into the classroom.
—Good morning, students. Let's start with the chemistry class. —Mrs. Mendeleiv said
—Are you going to check the projects? —Max asked the teacher
—Max! —Almost all of the class complained
—Yes, leave them on my desk, please.
—What happened to your perfect model face, Adrikins? —Chloe asked him
—What's wrong with my face?
—You have bags under your eyes, that's not healthy. It was surely because of Dupain-Cheng, wasn't it?
—No. Marinette has nothing to do with it. I had nightmares yesterday night and I couldn't sleep correctly.
—Poor, Adrikins. Don't watch horror movies at night. —She said and hugged him making him feel uncomfortable
—Enough, Bourgeois and Agreste. You are taking valuable time of my class, go to your respective tables. —Mrs. Mendeleiv said
They went to their seats in the lab. Adrien sat down next to Marinette.
—Okay, listen carefully because we are going to work with an exothermic reaction. To a small portion of sodium you will add only one drop of water.
—Just one! —The teacher repeated the instruction
—And don't hold the test tube with your hand, please. Start.
Marinette started with the experiment while Adrien was fighting to stay awake.
—Adrien?
—Yes? Can I help you?
—I was going to say that you should keep apart the table in case it has a bad reaction.
—Please, let me help you.
—Okay, add 1 drop of water to it.
—Okay, no problem.
*Adrien in his mind*
She told me one drop, but how I measure one drop?
Marinette distracted a little, while Adrien started putting water drops.
—Adrien, how many drops did you put on it?
—One, I thought. —Adrien said still sleepy
—It didn't look like one! —Marinette replied
In just a few seconds, the experiment exploded.
—Adrien Agreste, what did I tell you? Go to the principal's office, now!
—I'm sorry, Miss.
Adrien stood up and left the classroom. Marinette wanted to go with him but she better waited for the break. When the recess started, she started looking for him.
—Adrien! —Marinette screamed
—Over here. —He replied
—Are you okay? Why didn't you went back to your house?
—I don't want to be with my father, he will probably be doing evil things.
—Did you sleep?
—A few minutes because it was a physical education class in front of me and they screamed a lot. I will sleep when I get home.
Nino and Alya approached them.
—Hey, Adrien.
Elena and Miranda were calling Marinette.
—The girls are calling me, Can you watch Adrien? I will be right back.
—He's not a baby why-
—What's going on, Adrien? You must have something.
—Is hard to explain...
—Don't worry, dude. We will understand.
—Hmm... I don't know if I can tell you.
—It's that bad?
—Yes, it's worrisome.
—So?
—My father is Hawk Moth... —He said through his teeth
—What? I didn't understand.
—My father is...
—Louder, please! —Nino and Alya asked
—My father is Hawk Moth! —He literally screamed
A lot of people heard so it wasn't a secret anymore. People started asking Adrien some questions.
—Your father is Hawk Moth? —Rose asked
—Is that true? —Kim asked
—Okay, so everyone in here knows so I guess I can post it on the ladyblog. I want to be the first one.
Lila called Gabriel Agreste to inform everything.
—Your son just spilled it out. It's showtime. —Lila told him
Adrien tried to deny everything but It was impossible at that point. Marinette was also disappointed but she kinda understood him.
—Did you know? —Elena asked Marinette
—Yes, but he told me after the fight. —Marinette answered
—Okay, so what's the plan? Do you want me to erase everybody's memory?
—Isn't it hard to do?
—I don't know, but we should try.
—Okay, If you want.
—Of course, but I have to go for it in my apartment. I'll be right back.
—I'm going with you. —Miranda added
The exchange girls went to their apartment to take the owl miraculous, but in that moment Hawk Moth made a livestream for all citizens.
—Look! Gabriel Agreste is making a livestream. —Alya said out loud
Everyone in school and other places, started looking at their phones.
—Good morning, Paris. I'm Shadow Moth, the improved version of Hawk Moth. I couldn't expect less from my son, but don't worry if you know my identity... Let's celebrate, but when my son gets home, save yourself if you can. —He said and ended with an evil laugh
In just a few minutes, Gorizilla (the akumatized version of Adrien's bodyguard) appeared and took Adrien in his huge hand.
—Adrien! —Marinette shouted extending her
—Marinette! —He replied but he couldn't move in the fist of Gorizilla
After that dramatic scene, the big akumatized guy took him to his house. A moment later, Shadow Moth deakumatized him because he wasn't part of the plan at all. Adrien went faster to his room.
—Plagg, I did it again. —He said disappointed
—Don't worry, I'm sure Marinette and Sugarcube will came up with the solution.
—I can't let her deal with this alone. Let's do something.
—Plagg, claws out!
Cat Noir tried to get out of his room but his father sealed all the exits and windows because there were police officers outside.
—Plagg, claws in.
—What happened?
—Look a this, we are locked up.
—Why didn't you use your cataclysm to break it?
—Because it would be obvious I'm Cat Noir!
—That's a good point... but What will you do?
—Still don't know.
Meanwhile at school, Marinette ran inside the restrooms.
—Tikki, I don't know if I can do this without him...
—We will save him, don't worry. But we can't let Paris down.
—Let's join the party then...
—Tikki, spots on, yeah!
Ladybug get out of the bathrooms.
—All who have been chosen for using a miraculous enter here, please. Now!
Alya, Nino, Kim, Max, and also Chloe entered the classroom as Ladybug asked.
—Chloe, you- never mind...
—I need all of you to save Paris. We didn't expect it will happen that fast but we need to do something.
—Where is Cat Noir?
—He is one of the victims of Shadow Moth, we must save him.
Ladybug received a call.
—Ladybug. It's me, Ursa Major. Our guardian is here, he needs us in Mexico, so we are going. Just to let you know.
—What is going on in your country?
—There are some villains, is kind of weird because it's not common to see that.
—It must be Hawk Moth keeping you far from here.
—Maybe, but we have to go. I'm sorry.
—Don't worry, I will be fine. I have a whole team in here.
—That's cool. I just remember, do you want me to erase your memories?
—No. Cat Noir is not here, I don't want to take more time of yours. We will keep like that.
—Are you sure?
—Yes. Good luck saving your country.
—Thank you, adiós.
The call ended.
—Do you know where Luka is?
—He is in other classroom, different from ours. He must be there. —Alya said
—Okay, I will look for him. Don't get out, I'll give you your miraculous afterwards.
Ladybug started checking the school to look for him.
—Have you seen Luka?
—No.
—Hey, Alix. Have you seen Luka?
—Yes, he is with Juleka and Rose in the lockers room.
—Thank you. By the way, would you like to help me saving Paris?
—Are you kidding me? Of course!
—Come here.
They went to another place, with no people around.
—Alix Kubdel, this is the rabbit miraculous. You must use it to help me and the others to stop Shadow Moth. When we finish, you should return it to me.
—Yes. You can count on me.
—Hi, I'm Fluff, your Kwami. To transform, you should say "Fluff, clockwise". To activate your super power you should say: "Burrow" but just when it's necessary.
—Got it.
—Fluff, clockwise!
—Follow me, I will go for Luka first. —Ladybug told her
They found Luka.
—Luka, I need your help.
—But what about them? I can't leave them alone.
—They can stay here, going out now is dangerous.
—Go, Luka. We will be fine. —Juleka said
—Are you sure, Juls?
—Totally.
Luka hugged Juleka and left her with Rose. He accompanied Ladybug and Alix to the classroom were everybody was.
—I think we are complete. Except for Ryuko that doesn't study here.
—I will mention your miraculous, when you hear it, come and get it.
—Fox.
—Turtle.
—Horse.
—Monkey.
—Snake.
—What about me? —Chloe asked
—Chloe, I told you! You can't use the bee miraculous again, you betrayed me several times and also everyone knows your identity.
—This is ridiculous, utterly ridiculous!
—Chloe, please. This is for your own good.
—Please, I beg you. Consider I never beg anyone for anything. Let me be Queen bee just one more time.
—Let me think about it. But for know, you can only help us as yourself. Without power.
—But think it for real. I'm sure you wouldn't find a better Queen bee.
—Okay, everybody ready? Let's go outside.
They went outside the school. To the streets.
—Look at these people, they look like zombies. —King monkey said
The people that were akumatized look totally pale, a Kim said, they looked like zombies but they didn't act like them.
—Did you see that? If they touch other people they infect too! —Ladybug said
—It will be difficult to find who is the original akumatized... —Rena Rouge said
—Everybody, start checking each civilian. But be careful if they touch you, you're done.
After hours of trying, the superheroes started to get bored and tired.
—This is unbelievable. There are millions of habitants in Paris, we can't find the real one!
Alix with the miraculous appeared from a portal.
—I have the solution. I traveled in time just a few minutes before Shadow Moth's live-streamed and I just figure out who was the akumatized.
—Okay, tell us where we can found this person.
—Just follow me.
They follow Bunnix a few streets after they were.
—Is he. —She said pointing at the person
Bunnix miraculous was ringing.
—Go and feed your kwami. You are about to transform back. Don't let anyone see you.
—Okay. I'll be right back.
Among all the other heroes, they captured him and took off his cap, where the akuma was.
—No more evil doing for you, little akuma. Time to de-evilize!
—Gotcha. Bye bye little butterfly.
—Miraculous ladybug!
—Pound- —They couldn't finish the sentence because a voice interrupted them
—The party is not over, Ladybug. The party just started, prepare for the real thing.
—We are not afraid of you, Shadow Moth! —Ladybug replied with confidence
—Maybe not me but what about them?
Two villains appeared in front of the heroes. Puppeteer and Evillustrator were back.
—Try to win this time. —The voice said and laughed evilly
—We are a team, concentrate and we can get through this. —Ladybug argued
—Of course, we aren't giving up. —Rena Rouge said
—We are all in this together. —Pegasus added
—Wait, where is Chloe? —King monkey asked
