Hello! Welcome to this story! I really appreciate you even coming here to look at this. Anyway, there's a character in this chapter...and in certain other parts, who has not been specified as male or female. They have no name either. I warn you that this is not a mistake. I wrote it this way so you could imagine yourself as being that character instead. You are free to imagine someone you know as well, I don't really mind. I just felt like you guys needed some freedom in this story too. Thanks, and enjoy!

'Chat Noir, watch out!' Ladybug warned him, her yo-yo still spinning as a shield to protect her from the silver enemies that were currently lunging at her from all corners.

'All under control, m'lady,' Chat said confidently. 'This cat knows how to watch his tail.'

Ladybug rolled her eyes. Even at a time like this, the damned cat still knew how to crack puns. 'Just don't let him steal your shadow. If he does, he'll turn it into one of those silver puppet things, and you'll be immobilized permanently.'

'I'll be fine, I'm paw-sitive,' he smirked. Chat pulled out his baton from behind and extended it. 'Who wants some of the cat, hmm?' he teased the mindless silver shadows. With seamless skill, he dodged every oncoming attack, and returned that strength tenfold with ease.

Content that Chat could send his enemies flying on his own, Ladybug whipped her attention back up at her main target: Silver Shadow. The man was unknown to her, most likely yet another poor person that had been subjected to Hawk Moth's evil plans. His akumatized form was proving very difficult to defeat however. For someone who was all silver and only wore a hoodie and watch, it should not have been hard to notice that the akuma was hidden in the shining wrist accessory. But of course, getting close enough to destroy it had to be the catch to such an easy discovery.

'Come a little closer, Ladybug,' Silver Shadow cackled. 'I want to rip your shadow away and control it for my own. And then once I am done with the both of you, you're Miraculous' will be mine for the taking.' He continued onto a maniacal laugh that sent chills through the heroes' bones.

But Ladybug wasn't scared. She'd done this a million times before, and never failed. Throwing her magical yo-yo into the air, she shouted "Lucky Charm!", and watched as the magic formed into the perfect object for her to use.

'A...mirror? What am I supposed to do with this?' she frowned. It was very peculiar how her power gave her the most simplest of things, against a foe that could literally kill her, and yet this tiny object would be the key to saving the day yet again. 'Guess I gotta think again, huh,' she thought to herself before scanning her surroundings for her tactful strike.

The wristwatch on his left hand.

The side-view mirrors of cars on the street.

The mirror in her hand.

The sun.

'Got it!' she said. Ladybug pointed the mirror at an angle that reflected the sun onto the side-view mirrors of the cars, the light then seeping through the hearts of the silver victims. They shied away from the rays, scared of the power and damage it could do to their dark bodies. The beams continued to travel through the air and reached Silver Shadow's body, causing him to shriek in surprise. Seeing him now weakened and vulnerable, Ladybug flung her yo-yo and looped the watch in the string. She whipped it back towards her and grasped the accessory. Letting go of it, she stomped on it and the akuma flew out, fluttering desperately to try and escape.

'No more evil-doing for you little akuma.' Her yo-yo opened up and she spun the glowing orb around, charging its power and her aim at the flapping object. 'Time to de-evilise!' she shouted out of repetition, catching the evil creature in it. 'Gotcha,' she smiled, her trusted weapon humming softly in her hand as the evil was sucked out. Another good deed completed successfully. Her hand now still, Ladybug released the purified animal and whispered to it, 'Bye-bye little butterfly,' she waved it off into the sky.

She threw the mirror up into the air as she shouted, "Miraculous Ladybug!", the last of her commands she could use to fully erase all signs of the evil act. Magical ladybugs flew about fixing everything that had been destroyed in their battle. The poor akumatized man changed back into his regular self, and like all others, was unaware of what had happened to him during his akuma state.

Chat Noir ceased fighting and walked over to Ladybug. He smiled with that cheeky cat-grin he always reserved for her and fist bumped her hand. 'Nice going out there, my lady. You were very claw-some to watch. I'll admit I even pro-cat-stinated a little from just watching you defeat evil.'

Ladybug rolled her eyes. Her chance of answering back was cut short from the beeping sound of her Miraculous earrings. 'I better go now.' she told him blankly. 'Bye Chat. Bug out!' She flung her yo-yo out into the city and swung back to wherever she lived.

Chat laughed at the exiting pun his lady had begun to familiarize herself with. 'She's meow-nificent' he said to no one, before jumping up himself to head back home.


'What do you think of Chat Noir?' Alya asked out of the blue at the start of class. The teacher hadn't arrived yet, so these were the few minutes that Alya had to grill her best friend about the things happening in her life.

'Hm? W-What?' Marinette stuttered, surprised at the random question. 'I uh...he's okay, I guess. I mean he can be really annoying,' she realised what she was saying halfway through and stopped herself, laughing nervously to cover her mistake. 'I mean, he's a superhero, right? So he must be good.'

'Hm yeah, true. Well, did you here about the latest scoop in school?' Alya quickly changed the subject, a new spark in her eyes showing this news was pretty big of a deal.

'Latest scoop?' Of course Marinette was unaware of the school's gossip. She could barely get to school on time, what with being a secret superheroine at odd times of the day. 'Tell me, Alya.'

Alya shuffled in her seat and stared directly at her best friend. 'There's a new kid in school,' she said, excited. 'They're going to be in our class today!'

'Oh really? I can't wait to meet them.' And de-akumatize them one day, Marinette thought sadly. 'What do you think they'll be like?'

'Not sure. Nobody knows,' she grinned, adjusting her glasses in anticipation. 'That's why it's such big news. We don't even know if they're a girl or boy!'

Just then the teacher arrived and began to write on the board. She turned to face the class. 'Students, you have a new member of your class,' Ms Bustier announced. 'I expect you all to treat them fairly, you know how nerve-wracking it can be to start another school year.' Ms Bustier then looked at Alya and Marinette. 'Marinette and Alya, your new classmate will be sitting between you two if that's alright. It's only for today as we currently don't have enough seats.' The girls nodded, it wasn't as if they had a choice anyway.

Out of the corner of the door, stood the newest member of the class. They were extremely quiet, holding their book-bag in front of their knees shyly. They stumbled in, a light tinge of embarrassment showing on their cheeks. Marinette moved out of her chair and allowed them to take a seat beside Alya.

Once everyone was seated again, Ms Bustier began her lesson. But the new student wasn't paying attention. Instead, they were writing something on dozens of pieces of paper in a small journal.

It got to the end of the lesson and nearly everyone was out of class except for a few people that didn't mind staying in just a little longer.

Marinette looked beside her and down on the page. 'What's this?' she asked softly.

The new student blushed. 'Uh...i-it's a fanfiction that I'm writing.'

Marinette nodded in understanding. She's heard a little about what a fanfiction was thanks to Alya. 'What's it about?'

The student froze, cautious to answer. 'U-um...well...it's kinda, maybe, just a little about Chat Noir and Ladybug.' This new information intrigued the designer. She signaled for the student to evaluate and further explain what they meant by this. 'U-Um...well I'm writing about these two teenagers that are in the same class, and they're secretly the superhero duo. But...they don't know each other's identities so now they've created a massive love square between themselves...a-and I want to try and put my own creative spin on things.'

Marinette sat there in thought on the idea. It was very irrational, but it was a clever idea. She wondered if any of the plot applied to her in real life...nah. She chuckled to herself. 'That sounds like a really great idea!'

The student beamed at her. 'Wow, really? Thanks!'

'That sounds like a terrible idea,' a new person to the conversation said rudely.

Marinette sighed. 'Chloé, can't you keep to your own business instead of butting in to everyone else's?'

Chloé scoffed. 'I don't butt into just anyone's business, I am far better than that.'

Alya rolled her eyes, away from Chloé's sight. 'Right well, aside from that, Marinette and I think you're wrong to say that this idea is terrible. How would you like it if you came to school one day with a new hairstyle and we told you it was a terrible look for you?' she glared.

Chloé just laughed. 'Oh window-eyes, I wouldn't ever catch myself in such a situation. My hair is just too perfect.' She flicked her hair in Adrien's face, who was just silently listening to the argument.

The new student scowled. Chloé was extremely heartless, no words could accurately describe her. 'Stay away, Chloé. Leave everyone alone for once in your worthless life. After all, you're the entire reason why the whole class has been akumatized.'

Everyone stayed silent at the sudden outburst. No one was going to deny the fact that Chloé probably was responsible for all the akuma attacks within their class. It was just the harsh truth, really.

The mayor's precious little daughter was visibly fuming in front of everyone right now. 'How dare you?!' she screeched. 'You don't even know me. Everyone loves me! I'm their most favourite classmate, and you dare insult me?' She reached down for the book of written work; the book that contained pieces of paper that had been given hours and hours of thought.

'Hey give them back! I haven't uploaded them yet or photocopied them!' the new student said panicking. They stood up in their seat and tried to snatch the journal back. Chloé started to smirk, threatening to tear every page up into little, tiny pieces. 'Please don't, I'm sorry, Chloé.' The student begged. But it wasn't enough. Chloé shredded the papers in front of them, all of their ideas torn into a pile of thin rubble.

'That'll teach you a lesson to never cross me again,' Chloé laughed. 'Come on, Sabrina. Let's go,' she told her "friend".

The new student sat back down silently and stared at the book and torn papers in dismay. Marinette and everyone else felt bad for their new class member. It didn't even take Chloé one day to ruin someone's feelings.

Marinette placed her palm on the upset teenager. 'I'm so sorry about Chloé, she really is a horrible person,' she said truthfully. 'We could try and fix them, you know?'

The classmate just shook their head from side to side. 'Don't bother. It was a stupid idea anyway.' They brushed the papers and journal into their bag and pushed past Alya, who didn't try to stop them.

Marinette sighed. She knew that she'd soon have to go de-akumatize them. She hoped she could get to them before it was too late.


At the heart of the dark, ominous dome that was Hawk Moth's evil lair, stood the very man himself, suited up in the butterfly kwami's disguise. The swarm of butterflies surrounded him, the power to control right in his fingertips. He laughed, and summoned a butterfly to his hand.

'Oh...' he said to nobody in particular. 'How sad that a writer's hopes and dreams be crushed before they've even started.' He smirked, petting the creature's wings in amusement. 'How fortunate for me that such feelings be so richly exploitable.'

He used his power to send orders of evil intentions upon the butterfly; the unlucky student would soon become the perfect distraction to take Ladybug and Chat Noir's Miraculous'.

He opened his hands to reveal the now midnight-amethyst coloured butterfly. He smirked. 'Now go, my evil akuma, let's bring this writer's story to an end no one can forget!' He twirled his staff confidently. This time, he would get the ultimate power he deserved.


Seated alone on a bench by the river, the heartbroken student stared up at the blank sky whilst holding the ruined journal in their hands. That story they were writing had been so difficult to make; all of their effort was put into researching, rewatching the show, managing the time to write and deal with homework, edit, everything. And then Chloé had to go and rip it all away from them, literally.

They were so caught up in their thoughts that they didn't notice the tiny, midnight-blue flapping thing that landed in the journal and sent a communication line between Hawk Moth and the student.

In their minds, they heard a strange voice that was being extremely persuasive. He could probably tell them that they lived in space and they'd unconditionally believe him. 'Novellain, I am Hawk Moth. Allow me to lend you the power to set your story straight, and in return you must-'

'Give you the Miraculous' of Ladybug and Chat Noir. Heard it all before, Papillon,' Novellain said dully.

Hawk Moth froze in surprise. So this person knew a fair bit. Excellent. This was going to make things so much easier. 'Very well then, Novellain. Write out your story.'

The akuma's power grew and swallowed Novellain in a shroud of evil power.
