One week later...

"Pound it!"

Ladybug and Cat Noir did their usual fist bump after they have defeated another akuma once again.


Meanwhile, at inside an unknown location in Paris...

"Why?" Hawk Moth ranted while being surrounded with his butterflies. "Why am I surrounded with utter incompetents?! I created those akumas to give power to those people with negative emotions, so they can fulfill their dark desires while they give me the Miraculous in return! Yet, those miserable akumas I so entrusted with their power are unable to do anything but fail me!"

With anger and frustration, he said the words to de-transform into his civilian identity.

"Dark Wings, Fall!"

And in his place stood Gabriel Agreste.

"Um, master..." Nooroo, his kwami that went out of his Miraculous, attempted to speak up, but gets interrupted by an unexpected visitor.

"Save your breath, lad. No matter what you say, he won't listen to you," a British voice came upon the lair.

"Who are you?" Gabriel asked.

"Just a friend, but you can call me, Mad Mod," the evil old man entered his presence.

"How did you get in here? More importantly, how did you know where I am?" the silhouette asked skeptically.

"I've been following your butterflies, Hawk Moth, or should I say, Gabriel Agreste," Mod responds with an evil grin on his face. "It seems that no matter what akuma you sent to fight against Ladybug and Cat Noir to get their Miraculous, they always seem to triumph. That's why I came to you. I can help you get the Miraculous from those two superheroes."

"And how are you going to do that?"

"Here's your answer."

The old man introduced another visitor and it is Lila dressed up as Volpina.

"Volpina?" Gabriel is surprised by this. "But how?"

"Thanks to my technology, I was able to create the suit and weapon that you originally provided her through your akuma," Mod explained. "Now, introductions. Lila, meet Gabriel, also known as, Hawk Moth, and you know the reverse."

"Nice to finally meet you in person, Hawk Moth," Lila, in costume, greeted the blond man and shook hands with him.

"Same thing I'm going to say to you, Volpina," Gabriel greeted in return. "I'm impressed that even after you've been de-evilized, you never let go of your grudge against Ladybug."

"I trained her to be my apprentice, and now it's time to prove herself in the field. Of course, I will be accompanying her with three of my greatest creations," Mod continued as he taps on the floor twice with his cane.

With those words, three figures appeared, and Gabriel looks surprised because he recognized them.

"I'm sure you've already met Lady Wifi, Antibug, and Stormy Weather, but they're not the ones you know of," the old man explained. "I give you, the Robo-Akumas! The robotic versions of the akumatized villains."

"Impressive," the fashion designer looks impressed with what Mod has created. "Do they have their weaknesses?"

"Sadly, yes, but there are going to be smart enough not to fell for those," the British man added. "For this next move, you just sit back and relax while we take action... Gabe."

"Gabe?" Gabriel is surprised by the nickname he was just given. "We just met and you've already given me a nickname?"

"Well, it's the thought that counts," Mod responded.

"Very well, you shall have my permission to take action next, so I'll just sit back and relax this time."

"Good."


Meanwhile, in Master Fu's Massage Shop...

"There's no doubt about it," Master Fu talked about the last akuma Ladybug and Cat Noir fought against. "That last akuma they fought against, they were almost losing."

"So, what are you going to do about it?" Wayzz asked.

"I think it's about time I call on three new Miraculous wielders to get them ready for any particularly difficult missions," he responded as he opens the gramophone, revealing the Miraculous chest box. He also looked at his own bracelet, his own Miraculous. "Also, that includes..."


Author's Note: What do you think of this chapter? BTW, I watched the first episode Miraculous Ladybug season 2 from YouTube, and I was right about one thing: Hawk Moth is Gabriel Agreste. I'm also changing the title of the story from "Titans in Paris" to "Mod in Paris" as he's in Paris to take a break from the Teen Titans and focus himself on Ladybug and Cat Noir instead. Don't worry, the Titans will appear at some point.

Tell me, is Mad Mod going to be an example of a 'particularly dangerous mission'?
