Episode 8: Hades

(SONG: "Miraculous" - Laura Marano cover)

Elsa: In the daytime, I'm Elsa Aaron. Just a normal girl, with a normal life. But there's something about me that, no one knows yet. Cause I have a secret...

Lyrics

Miraculous/simply the best/up to the test when things go wrong/Miraculous/yeah I got this/I gotta confess I feel so strong/MIRACULOUS!

(End of opening)

Scene 1

THE PARK - WITH ANNA

Anna is walking down the path when she hears a cute little whine come from the side of the pathway, making her look over and see a cute little pure white puppy, with beedy black eyes.

ANNA: AW! What a cute puppy! (Walks up to it and sees that it's stuck in a small whole.) Oh you poor dear. Come here.

Anna bends down slowly and puts her hand out for it to sniff. The dog sniffs her hand and then licks it with a bark.

ANNA: Good boy! (Moves a little closer to the dog and starts trying to get its leg out of the whole.)

The dog whines a bit as Anna gets his leg unstuck and holds him in her lap.

ANNA: There you go, cutie! Let's get you to the vet to check out that leg.

Anna stands up with the dog in her arms and heads out of the park to her parents.

Scene 2

JACK'S RECORDING STUDIO

Jack is plucking at his guitar in the recording booth with his songbook right there, when he hears someone laughing, making him look up to see Molly talking to his friend/band mate HICCUP Haddock (16).

JACK: Seriously? He likes her?

BUNNY: (Through microphone to booth) Reverse that, mate!

JACK: (Chuckles with a cough)

MOLLY: What's so funny!?

HICCUP: I have to get to work! (Runs into the booth)

Jack laughs at Hiccup's antics, making Molly smirk at him with a friendly nature.

MOLLY: I don't have the flu boys!

HICCUP: Yeah, we know! But I have a girlfriend!

MOLLY: (Sarcastic: Shocker). I knew that!

BUNNY: Whatever, Miss Green. Stop talking now.

Jack laughs as Hiccup rolls his eyes and heads to the drum set in the back. Bunny quickly gets the track set up on and talks through the microphone again.

BUNNY: You ready, Frostbite?

JACK: As ready as I'll ever be.

BUNNY: Alright! We're recording in 5...4...3...2...

Bunny hits record as the song starts going through the headphones Jack had put on his head.

(SONG: "Upside Down" – Ross Lynch)

Jack gets ready at the microphone quietly before his cue to sing comes.

JACK: Always get this funny feeling/every time you come around/it's like I'm walking on the ceiling/both feet off the ground/and it's alright/feels so left/upside down/like I'm losing my head/cause I know where my heart belongs/with you again/PRE-CHORUS/So I say HEY/I'm crazy into you/and I say HEY/every minute's over do/and I can't wait/no I don't care/I'll do what it takes/driving all night/catch the first flight/just to see you/I'll explain/CHORUS/You got me like Upside Down/you standing there/I swear my whole world is/turned around/I can't believe you're here/I was looking in the crowd/but you're there now/you standin there/I swear my world's turned around/you got me Upside Down/you got me Upside Down/I'm upside down/VERSE 2/tell me how am I supposed to/act like everything's okay/it's like a jump without a parachute/right out to a tidal wave/I'm so mixed up/there's no doubt/got me/feeling like I'm inside out/it's funny when I'm here with you/I wouldn't change a thing/PRE-CHORUS/So I say HEY/I'm crazy into you/and I say HEY/every minute's over do/and I can't wait/no I don't care/I'll do what it takes/driving all night/catch the first flight/just to see you/I'll explain/CHORUS/You got me like Upside Down/you standing there/I swear my whole world is/turned around/I can't believe you're here/I was looking in the crowd/but you're there now/you standin there/I swear my world's turned around/you got me Upside Down/you got me Upside Down/I'm upside down/BRIDGE/Got me spinning/from the moment you walked in the room/girl, I admit/there's nothing I can do/I fall for you/Oh, you got me like Upside Down/oh, you got me like Upside Down/(HEEEEEEEEEEEEEEY!)/CHORUS/You got me like Upside Down/you standing there/I swear my whole world is/turned around/I can't believe you're here/I was looking in the crowd/but you're there now/you standin there/I swear my world's turned around/you got me Upside Down/you got me Upside Down/Upside Down...I'm Upside Down.

(End of song)

Bunny stops the recording quickly.

BUNNY: That was perfect, Frost!

JACK: Thanks, Bunny!

HICCUP: Tell us, Jack...who's the song about?

JACK: Why should I say?

MOLLY: (Through microphone to booth) Because we can tell you like someone!

BUNNY: Is it Snow White?

JACK: Heck no!

MOLLY: Then who?!

JACK: I'm not saying!

HICCUP: You're no fun. (Walks out of the booth to a break room)

JACK: I'd hope that isn't true!

Bunny roll his eyes before leaving as well to get another track ready for Jack's next song.

Jack rolls his eyes at his friends before leaving the booth himself.

Scene 3

ARENDAL BAKERY – ELSA'S ROOM

Elsa is playing at her keyboard when something furry brushes up on her leg, making her look down to see a cute white puppy at her feet.

ELSA: AW! Where'd you come from!? (Picks it up and places it in her lap) You're so cute!

ANNA: (Runs in and smiles) I found him at the park, stuck in some mud and branches.

ELSA: AW! You poor thing!

ANNA: I gave it a bath so it wouldn't be dirty anymore.

ELSA: You did good, Anna. Did it have a collar?

ANNA: No. It's nameless and without a home. But when mom and dad get home from their lunch, I'm going to ask if we can keep him!

ELSA: I don't know, Anna. They might say no.

ANNA: That's why I want you to convince them as well! He'd be perfect for us!

ELSA: (Sighs) Alright. I'll try. But no guarantees!

ANNA: Thank you! (Hugs Elsa as the dog hops off of Elsa's lap) Come on, Olaf!

Anna and the dog start to leave, making Elsa laugh.

ELSA: Olaf?!

ANNA: We can't keep calling it the dog! He has to have a name!

Anna runs out of Elsa's room and goes to the living room with Olaf trotting behind.

Elsa giggles at her sister's antics before going back to her keyboard. She stops for a moment and grins as she thinks of Jack.

TIKKI: What's wrong, Elsa?

ELSA: (Looks at Tikki) Oh, nothing's wrong, Tikki. It's just...

TIKKI: ...you're thinking about Jack Frost, aren't you?

ELSA: He's a good friend, a best friend. But, I can't help but feel like I know him from somewhere.

TIKKI: Tell me the truth, Elsa. Do you like him?

ELSA: Of course! He's my friend!

TIKKI: I mean, LIKE him.

Elsa blushes at the thought as she looks away from her little Kwami.

TIKKI: I knew it!

ELSA: So what if I do have a crush on him?! He wouldn't fall for a girl like me.

TIKKI: Elsa, the only way for you to know this, is if you tell him how you feel! With you as Ladybug, you don't know when the next time will be you get to tell him!

ELSA: (Sighs) I know, Tikki. But...

TIKKI: But nothing! I want you to tell him how you feel! I dare you to!

ELSA: Just because you dare me, doesn't me I...

TIKKI: Double dog dare!

Elsa sighs stiffly before looking at the ladybug Kwami.

ELSA: Alright! I'll tell him! But how do I do that!?

TIKKI: Well...you express yourself your best when it comes to songwriting...write him a song!

Elsa smiles at the idea as she grabs her songbook and starts writing in it on a blank page.

Scene 4

A BIG BUSINESS BUILDING

A man named ASH Styx (25) is finishing up his last report, as MEGARA (MEG) Roman (24), a married woman with auburn hair, walks up to him in her purple suited get up.

MEG: Wow, Ash. I'm impressed. You finished all those reports in no time.

ASH: You got that right, Nutmeg!

MEG: Are you trying to win that promotion faster than you have been this past year?

ASH: Yes I am! I'm telling you, it's in the palm of my ever so pale hand!

MEG: (Giggling) Okay, okay, ghost boy! (Settles down a bit) Good luck.

ASH: Thanks.

ZEUS: Ladies and gentlemen, may I have your attention!

Everyone looks up to their boss at his office, ZEUS Roman (idk age), with a big smile on his face.

ZEUS: I would like to announce who the promotion is going out to!

ASH: (Under breathe) Here we go.

ZEUS: The promotion, goes to...Megara Roman!

Everyone goes wild as Meg stands there shocked and Ash looks at her with betrayal.

MEG: Me?

ZEUS: Yeah, Meg!

Ash throws his last page on the desk and runs out of the building.

MEG: Ash!

OUTSIDE WITH ASH

Ash is leaning up against the wall, still wearing his press pass on his shirt, trying to cool down.

ASH: Why her?! Just because she's married to his son!? UHG! I should have gotten that promotion!

WITH HAWK MOTH

HAWK MOTH: A man who feels betrayed by his boss just because his daughter-in-law took his job offering from under his nose. A perfect formula for my Akuma.

Hawk Moth takes a little white butterfly and akumatizes it.

HAWK MOTH: Go my little Akuma, and evilize him!

BACK WITH ASH

Ash is still standing there when the little black butterfly flies into his press pass, melting with its DNA, and making Ash look up with redness around his eyes and a purple butterfly symbol around them as well.

HAWK MOTH: Hades, Greek God of the Underworld, I am Hawk Moth, and I can feel your pain of being rejected. How about you get your revenge? But in return, I ask for the miraculous! All 3 of them!

ASH: Yes, Hawk Moth!

A purple smoke starts forming around him, akumatizing him.

Scene 5

ELSA'S PLACE

Elsa is walking out of her parents' bakery when she hears screams coming from the other end of town.

ELSA: Are you kidding me?! Now?!

TIKKI: You have to stop whatever is happening, Elsa! Or else...!

ELSA: People will get hurt, I know! (Runs to the alley by her home) Tikki, SPOTS ON!

Elsa quickly turns into Ladybug and flies off with her yo-yo stretched out in front of her, and landing in front of a studio.

HADES: And you'll be undead, and you'll be undead... (Shooting blue flames at passing civilians, turning them into skeletons.) EVERYONE WILL BE UNDEAD!

ELSA/LADYBUG: Who the heck is that!?

Jack gets ready to walk out of the studio and stops the moment he sees Hades terrorizing the city.

JACK: Oh crap!

Atlantica flips into the area and shoots some water at Hades.

ARIEL/ATLANTICA: Need any help, Ladybug!?

ELSA/LADYBUG: Thanks for coming! Now where's the silly kitty?!

JACK: (Runs out as Hades shoots blue flames towards him) WHOA!

Jack tumbles away from the fire and dodges it quickly, making Hades glare at him. Ladybug sees him and gasps.

ELSA/LADYBUG: No...LEAVE HIM ALONE! (Throws her yo-yo at Hades, hitting him in the hand)

HADES: OW!

MEG: Ash, I'm...AHHH!

HADES: Hey, Nutmeg! How's the new position TREATING YOU!? (Throws blue flames at her)

MEG: AHHHHH!

HERCULES Roman (26) runs in and pulls her back into the studio quickly right as the flames hit the wall.

HERCULES: You okay, Meg?!

MEG: I'm fine, Wonder Boy! But Ash...he's been...!

HERCULES: I know!

JACK: Okay, that's it! (Runs behind the building quickly)

Ladybug runs up to Hades and starts fighting him with some karate moves when he pushes her away and into a tree, letting Atlantica run in and fight as well, only to lose as well as she gets knocked to ground.

HADES: Alright, alright! Who else what's some of this mocho man! Huh?!

JACK/CAT NOIR: Why don't you try a cat on for size!?

A silver staff knocks Hades off of his feet making him spin around and see Cat Noir standing there with a sly smirk on his face.

JACK/CAT NOIR: And now Cat Noir has entered the party!

ELSA/LADYBUG: It's about time, kitty!

JACK/CAT NOIR: Sorry it took so long, m'lady! (Looks over at Ladybug with a smirk) I was busy making some good luck with some business of mine!

ARIEL/ATLANTICA: Black cats will always be bad luck, Cat!

JACK/CAT NOIR: Don't ruin my mood, Mermaid!

Atlantica rolls her eyes as she gets back up and starts fighting Hades once again, this time with Cat Noir's help.

Ladybug scans him for a moment until she lays her eyes on the press pass.

ELSA/LADYBUG: (Under breath: He's a reporter.) The Akuma is in his press pass!

JACK/CAT NOIR: Got it! Atlantica, distract him!

ARIEL/ATLANTICA: Right! Okay, time to sing! (Necklace glows brightly) Ah-ahahah-ah-ah-ah/ah-ahahah-ah-ah/ah-ahahah-ah-ah-ah/ah-ahahah-ah-ah!

Hades is covering up his ears from the powerful and beautiful sound.

HADES: OW! HEY QUIT IT! (Shoots red flames at Atlantica, hitting her and making her fall)

ARIEL/ATLANTICA: Whoa! (Lands on back) Ow.

ELSA/LADYBUG: (Stands up quickly and throws her yo-yo up in the air) LUCKY CHARM! (A red microphone with black spots appears in the air and lands in her hands.) What am I going to do with this thing?

JACK/CAT NOIR: Ooh! A little show from Ladybug! I've always wanted to hear you sing!

ELSA/LADYBUG: Shut up, Cat! I don't know if...!

Red flames goes towards Cat Noir, making Ladybug jump into action and push him out of the way, as she gets hit herself, falling to the ground.

JACK/CAT NOIR: Ladybug!

ELSA/LADYBUG: I'm fine! Just burned a little!

Cat Noir sighs with relief from hearing that.

ELSA/LADYBUG: Guess I have to sing. (Grabs the microphone and stands up weakly; turns on microphone, takes a quick deep breath, and sings in to it) Don't let them in/don't let them see...

Cat Noir perks up at the song Ladybug is singing.

ELSA/LADYBUG: ...be the good girl/you always have to be/conceal, don't feel/don't let them know/they cannot know...let it go/let it go/can't hold it back anymore/let it go/let it go/turn away and slam the door/I don't care/what they're going to say/let the storm rage on/the cold never bothered me anyway.

Hades is covering his ears again out of the pureness that is Ladybug's.

ELSA/LADYBUG: Now, Cat!

Cat Noir quickly stands up and runs towards Hades.

JACK/CAT NOIR: CATACLYSM! (His right hand starts bubbling with black bubbles as he grabs the press pass quickly from Hades' robe, destroying it in the process.)

Cat Noir throws it to the ground as the little black butterfly flies out of the destroyed object.

ELSA/LADYBUG: No more evil doing for you, little Akuma. (Swings yo-yo, catches Akuma, and purifies it; releases it afterwards) Bye-bye little butterfly. (Grabs the microphone from the ground and throws it in the air) MIRACULOUS LADYBUG!

The microphone sparkles and explodes through the town, fixing everything and everyone that Hades had touched and his press pass.

Hades turns back int Ash Styx.

ASH: What? What happened?

The 3 Miraculous holders puts their fists together in the center of the circle.

ALL 3: Pound it!

Atlantica's necklace beeps

ARIEL/ATLANTICA: That's my cue. See you guys around! (Runs off, leaving Cat Noir and Ladybug together)

JACK/CAT NOIR: Hey, Ladybug? Where did you hear that song you song?

ELSA/LADYBUG: (Ear beeps) Uh, a friend played it for me. See you around, Cat. (Winks at him before flying off with her yo-yo.)

Cat Noir sighs as his ring beeps, making him run back behind the building and power down.

Jack walks out and looks the way Ladybug went.

JACK: How did you know that song?

WITH HAWK MOTH

HAWK MOTH: Another failure! I promise you, one day, you're Miraculouses will be mine, Ladybug, Cat Noir, and Atlantica! They will be mine!

Scene 6

THE STUDIO ASH WORKS AT – THE NEXT DAY

Ash walks in with his briefcase when he sees Meg.

ASH: Megara!

Meg looks up and smiles as she runs up to him and hugs him.

MEG: I'm so sorry about yesterday! (Pulls away) I didn't realize my father-in-law was planning on giving it to me!

ASH: Don't worry about it, Nutmeg. I'm glad for you.

MEG: Thanks...but I turned it down.

ASH: (Surprised) What?

MEG: (Walks up the VP door and closes it, showing the name Ash Styx on the plague) You deserve more than me.

ASH: (Smiles as he hugs her again) Thank you.

MEG: Sure thing, Hades.

Ash's eyes widen at that name.

Scene 7

THE PARK

Elsa and Anna are walking the dog that Anna found, now that it has a collar around it's neck with his name on the tag: Olaf.

ANNA: I am so glad mom and dad got to let us keep him!

ELSA: You're the one who asked and I convinced. We make a pretty good team.

ANNA: Yeah, just like Ladybug, Cat Noir, and Atlantica!

ELSA: (Smiles at those names.) Yeah.

Jack is watching from afar, with his songbook in his lap, as he is sitting on the bench.

JACK: (Sighs with frustration)

PLAGG: What's wrong, Jack? (Eats a piece of camembert cheese)

JACK: I'm in a dilema. Elsa and I wrote that song "Let it Go", right?

PLAGG: Yeah. Catchy tune by the way.

JACK: Thanks. But then, Ladybug goes and sings it to stop the akumatized victim the other day.

PLAGG: Maybe she over heard you guys rehearsing it so many times. I mean, I sure know it by heart now!

JACK: Maybe...or maybe I finally found out who Ladybug is under the mask.

THE END/TO BE CONTINUED...

Howdy guys! Thanks for reading this chapter/episode. I had fun writing it and it seemed to just all fall into place. Thank you to the person who gave me the idea. I appreciate it. If anyone else has an idea of who I could use next as the next akumatized victim, please review and let me know. I'll use it if I haven't come up with an idea yet. And if I have come up with an idea, I'll save your idea for the next chapter. I'll use it no matter what.

Thanks for reading, God bless, and having wonderful night.

Au avoir.
