Chapter 36: Heroes Will Rise

In Memory of Powers Boothe (June 1st, 1948 – May 14th, 2017)

And…

Chris Cornell (July 20th, 1964 – May 18th, 2017)

And…

Roger Moore (October 14th 1927 – May 23rd 2017)

And…

Ed Blaylock (September 6th, 1952 - April 19th, 2017)

And…

Adam West (September 19th, 1928 – June 9th, 2017)

My name is Ronin Khor, former leader of the Seraph Corps and now a Commander of Ultimate Dai-Shocker. In the year 2001, I was defeated by Kim Possible, but I escaped capture and was rescued by Albedo, the current leader of Dai-Shocker and Kamen Rider Dark Decade. I helped to take down Tsukasa Kadoya, and had stayed in the shadows until his successor, Ben Tennyson, claimed Albedo's arm and put him in a coma. Now, after months of seeking a way to help Albedo recover, I have returned, and I am ready to restore our leader to greatness. Hell to Heroes.

Previously on The Next Decade…

Ben: "I'm Decade… Kamen Rider Decade."

Tendou: "The one who leads the next generation… Ben Tennyson."

Hawk Moth: "Perhaps a double dose is in order for this Akuma."

Chloé: "He can't do this to me! I deserve more! It's his fault! No… Marinette… it's all her fault too! I hate them!"

Ben: "I'm not from here… this Earth, this World."

Alya: "Does this mean you're Ladybug?"

Nino: "And you're Cat Noir?"

Ben: "There's a greater threat, Ultimate Dai-Shocker, that hasn't arrived yet, but… if you want to try to find a way to take down Chloé, Hawk Moth, and the other Villains in your World… we're here to help. What do you say?"

Marinette: "We're in."

Kat: "No matter what, Albedo will never wake up."

Ben: "The real Destroyer, Kamen Rider Dark Decade, is in a coma thanks to me."

Zemerik: "I hope you realize that by infusing our technology with your crystals, there will be some side effects to the wearer."

Ronin: "These are crucial to helping the Great Leader of Ultimate Dai-Shocker."

Master Fu: "I have a safe place where we can begin your training… Volpina."

Hawk Moth: "One opportunity to take the Miraculouses and the Rider Gear of Decade has failed, but a new one will come to us."

Ikkit: "Don't worry, Chloé, Ikkit will protect you."

Chloé: "I'm sure you will."

Aboard the Dark Crisis, Ronin unwrapped the gauze around Albedo's arm. He looked to the case he was holding and looked back to Albedo, his vitals still steady.

"Albedo, my friend," Ronin said as he placed the RideSlayer next to Albedo's body. "It is time for you to rise again," he said as he removed the robotic arm from his case. "Now… let us begin."

"Alright, newbies," Ben said at the Mansion as he walked over towards Marinette, Adrien, Alya and Nino, holding Mjölnir in his hands. "After this long and tiring battle I've got a good way to unwind."

Thor, who was talking with Tony nearby, turned to Ben, as did Marinette, Adrien, Alya and Nino with Tikki and Plagg.

"Okay," Marinette said as she looked up. "What have you got?" she asked.

Ben grinned and put Mjölnir down onto the table. "Who wants to prove themselves worthy of lifting Thor's hammer?" he asked.

"What?!" Adrien asked in surprise. "Are you serious?!"

"Come on, it'll be fun," Ben said as he motioned to Tony and Thor. "Ask the Avengers."

"Quite a challenge of skill," Thor said. "Never has there been one so daring."

"Well, the last time we did it, we were attacked by a rogue AI," Tony said, getting everyone to look to him. "Okay, it was mine, but I'm learning."

"Yeah, but besides that, you still had fun, right?" Ben asked, getting a nod from Thor and a shrug from Tony.

"Okay, so there's a bit of risk involved," Alya said as she cracked her knuckles. "What are the rules?"

"You lift Mjölnir, you prove yourself worthy and you get to rule Asgard," Thor explained. "Simple as that."

Nino grinned before turning to Ben. "So, Ben," he said. "Why aren't you ruling Asgard?"

"I have an Alliance to look after," Ben explained. "Besides, I'm leader of a tribe somewhere else. Don't know what they're up to, but let's focus on this."

"So, who's up first?" Tony asked.

Ben grinned as he looked to the group. The Kwamis flew out from their owners and looked to Mjölnir before flying back.

"Nino…" Ben started out as everyone turned to Nino. "How about you?"

"Me?" Nino asked.

"Think of what you can get from this." Thor said.

Nino grinned. "Alright! Step aside!" he said as he got up. "I'm about to turn Asgard into the most awesome dance club ever!"

Thor suddenly turned from confident to nervous. "I'll change my name the day that happens." He said.

Nino chuckled as he reached for Thor's Hammer. He looked on as everyone watched before he started to pull on it. At first, it did not seem to be a problem for him, but soon, he found himself struggling to pull it out, as he was only using one hand.

"Having trouble there, DJ?" Alya asked slyly.

"No," Nino replied in a strained voice, now being forced to use both of his hands to pull Mjölnir out. "Just loading my guns!" he exclaimed. He tried once again to pull out Mjölnir, only to fall onto his back.

"Okay, you had your fun," Alya said as she got up. She cracked her neck and flexed her fingers. "Now step aside, this is a woman's job."

Marinette, Adrien, Tikki and Plagg all looked to each other with concern.

"Alya, you sure about this?" Marinette asked, chuckling nervously.

"The Pharaoh said I have a pure heart, and only one with a pure heart can lift…" Alya started off as she grabbed Mjölnir, trying to pull it out with one hand. "Thor's…" she went on in a strained voice. "Hammer!" she strained as she continued to try and pull Mjölnir out with one hand. She strained even more as Nino watched before, like Nino, she was forced to use both hands. She even got up on top of the table while still trying to pull it out.

"Need help?" Nino asked, teasing her like she asked him before.

"That would be… appreciated!" Alya said as she continued to pull.

Marinette and Adrien both snickered while Tikki and Plagg watched with interest.

Alya continued to pull on Mjölnir. As she did, she suddenly heard Nino straining and looked down to see him pulling as well.

"Are you even pulling?" Alya asked.

"Are you on my team?" Nino asked back.

"Just represent! Pull!" Alya called out as both she and Nino pulled on Mjölnir, trying to get it out.

"Alright, move aside," Adrien said as he walked over. "I've got this."

"Don't be too sure." Marinette teased.

Alya and Nino both panted as they walked back to the couch.

"A Pharaoh told you that you had a pure heart?" Gwen asked Alya with an eyebrow raised.

"Hey," Alya said with her hands up in surrender. "I don't question deities."

Adrien pulled on Mjölnir, trying to lift it off of the table. Everyone watched with interest before he fell back, letting out cat noises and clawing his hands in front of him.

"Really?" Elena asked with a chuckle.

"Doesn't work like that." Plagg said.

"I could Cataclysm it out." Adrien said with a shrug.

"Oh, no you won't," Sayo said. "This Mansion belongs to my Family."

"My turn." Tikki said as she flew over. She pulled on the strap of Mjölnir as everyone watched once again.

"Even after knowing what how powerful a Kwami is, I still can't take them seriously!" Ben exclaimed as he looked to Marinette and Adrien. "They're just too cute!"

"You have any camembert around?" Plagg asked as he flew over.

"Well, some of them, at least." Ben said.

Everyone watched as Tikki continued to try and pull Mjölnir off of the table. However, not even she could lift it, and she was sent flying around the room like a deflated balloon.

"Well, she failed," Plagg said as he flew over while Tikki flew all the way back to Marinette. "Okay, here I go. I'm going to need some rope and an anvil."

"You're going to try a Looney Tunes trick, aren't you?" Ben asked.

"Okay, I'll pull it out fairly," Plagg said as he tried to pull Mjölnir off of the table. "I really wish I had that anvil now!" he yelled as he used his head to try and lift Mjölnir. However, like Tikki, he was sent flying, only like a pinball across the room.

"Not so funny now, is it?" Tikki teased.

"My turn!" Marinette called out as she walked up.

Everyone smiled and drank their smoothies and sodas. Marinette placed her hand on Mjölnir and started to pull, only for it to budge a little, causing everyone to spit their drinks in surprise.

"Well, that was unexpected." Ben said.

"Come on, Marinette!" Tikki called out. "You can do it!"

"Think goodhearted, Girl!" Alya called out.

"She might actually do it." Thor said as he turned to Ben and Tony.

"Who knows?" Ben shrugged.

"Cap budged it," Tony reasoned. "He didn't pull it out, but he budged it."

Marinette continued to pull on Mjölnir. However, despite being able to budge it, she found herself eventually unable and stopped.

"It might take all of us," Marinette said. "Maybe Ben was teaching us about teamwork."

"That's your interpretation of this?" Ben asked.

"Trust us, after all our attempts to get the Hammer out, we think we know the lesson." Adrien said, causing Alya and Nino to nod in agreement.

"Here's another way to interpret it," Ben said as he walked over. Everyone looked as he picked up Mjölnir with ease. "You mean well, but you're all not worthy… yet."

"What does it take?" Marinette asked.

"Time… patience… and heart," Ben said. "You need to be humble and you need to have good intentions. Those are hard to come by."

"Well, you had us fooled." Tikki joked.

Ben grinned before he looked to the Omnitrix. "Ah, it's getting late," he said. "Tony, do you and Thor think you can get everyone home? I'll take care of Marinette and Adrien."

"Of course," Thor said. He walked over to Ben and patted him on the shoulder. "I'll be popping in every now and then, so expect me from time to time."

"Sure," Ben said. "From here… what can go wrong?"

Back aboard the Dark Crisis, Ronin placed the new arm on Albedo's limb. As soon as it was in place, he lit up his own arm.

"Long live Albedo!" Ronin yelled, infusing the arm and Albedo with his dark powers.

The vitals of Albedo started to spike up wildly. The dark energy from Ronin started to make the systems overload. A wire exploded, causing the alarms to go off.

The alarm sounded off through every part of the Dark Crisis. Everyone immediately stopped what they were doing and ran over to Albedo's Quarters.

"Albedo is in danger!" JT called out. "Protect him at all costs!"

Kat grinned as she strolled through the halls with everyone else. "This is better than I could have hoped for." She said sinisterly to herself.

Everyone ran into the room. However, upon seeing Albedo's eyes start to open, they all stopped and looked on in shock.

Ronin stood back as Albedo's eyes opened up. He cracked his neck and broke free of the restraints keeping him on the operating table.

"No…" Kat said, feeling worried about the awakening of Albedo.

"He is alive!" Simon Vincible exclaimed.

As soon as Albedo broke free from the operating table, he spread his arms out and let out a feral roar. Everyone gasped before he grabbed the RideSlayer, holding it into the air. Without question or hesitation, everyone bowed down. Kat, on the other hand, walked up to Albedo and then knelt before him.

"Lord Albedo… you're awake." Ronin said.

Albedo slowly turned to Ronin. As the Soul Archer looked up, Albedo looked to his new hand. Everyone looked to it with amazement as he tinkered with his new mechanical fingers. "Ronin…" he said, his voice sounding slightly deeper. "My friend… you have proven yourself to be a worthy follower," he said as Ronin continued to bow. "I tip my hat to you… for reviving me… and presenting me with my new arm."

"Of course, Albedo," Ronin said with respect. "I was glad to help."

"It was our pleasure," Kat said, causing Albedo to slowly turn to her. He placed the RideSlayer at his side on the belt of the Dark Decadriver. "But there is something you must know—"

"I already know," Albedo said, cutting Kat off. He clenched his robotic fist and ran at Kat, slamming his mechanical fingers against her chest, pinning her to the ground with his fingers digging into her. "That you have attempted to betray me."

"Lord Albedo, I would never—"

"Did you really think I was unaware of what people were saying around me?" Albedo asked. "The fact that you attempted to overthrow me and take the title of Great Leader for yourself?" he asked as he slowly crushed her chest. "You couldn't lead a school band," he taunted, crushing her chest and heart completely. "So be thankful I didn't crush your head." He said, tossing Kat's dead body away.

"Kat!" Deathstroke called out.

"I am not done with you yet." Albedo said sternly, shooting at Kat's corpse. All of a sudden, her eyes shot wide open, and she gasped for breath.

"What… what have you done?" Kat asked as she looked to herself. "Am I alive?" she asked before feeling her heart. Much to her surprise, not only had the blood disappeared, but she felt no heartbeat. "What happened to my heart?! To Sauron?!"

"You are not alive. You are still dead…" Albedo said, getting Kat to gasp in horror. "And for your punishment of betrayal, you will remain that way… until the nine lives I have given you are up."

"Nine lives?" Kat asked nervously.

"Your heart is now a flame… one that will go out after you die nine times," Albedo explained. He took out the RideSlayer and spun it around. "I could kill you right now!" he yelled as he slashed at Kat's neck, causing her to scream. "I can kill you here, and you will be down to eight lives… but I need you at nine for what I have planned. You can come back to life, but for a limited number of times. After all, not everyone can be Deadpool," he taunted. "Nonetheless, I will enjoy killing you for each failure you make."

Kat gulped nervously. "Yes… Master." She said.

Albedo chuckled before turning to the rest of the Ultimate Dai-Shocker Forces. "My friends, I stand before you… and yet, here you stand as if it were only yesterday," he said as everyone seemed to be more afraid of him than before. "I confess myself… disappointed. Not one of you tried to revive me save Ronin…" he started out as he activated the new cannon from his arm, shooting the people whose name he spoke. "Mercury! Cinder Fall! Gatlocke! Dementor! Zemo! Not even you…" he said as he turned to the side, shooting at the shadows and hissing, "Krytus!"

Mercury, Cinder, Gatlocke, Dementor and Zemo were all sent back by the blasts from Albedo. The minute they rose up again, their pupils became dilated, and the symbol of Dark Decade was branded on their foreheads. Krytus, however, was only scarred, bits of his body falling from where Albedo shot him.

"With all due respect, I have been helping to prevent Tennyson from getting the Ultimate Rider Power… to help revive you." Krytus said as he let the wound sink in.

"I am not merciful… not anymore," Albedo said sternly. "The Ultimate Rider Power matters not to me… the leadership of Ultimate Dai-Shocker does!" he yelled before he turned to see Vilgax and Psyphon. "If it isn't my old friend… welcome," he said as Vilgax sent him a nod. He turned to Ronin "What of the Alliance? Have new Worlds been discovered?" he asked.

"We were delayed trying to revive you," Ronin explained. "They are now known as the Alliance of Ten. We are in their World now, but we do not have names of the enemies or the heroes who reside here."

"It matters not," Albedo said as he looked to the RideSlayer. "I will find the Alliance and kill them for robbing me of my victory…" he said as he placed RideSlayer into his robotic palm. He began to walk away, summoning a Silver Dimension Wall to take him down to the surface. "No one assist me. This is personal," he ordered all of Ultimate Dai-Shocker. "I will do it myself."

The next morning, Elena and Gwen watched as Ben got himself ready.

"You look nice today," Gwen said. "Guess that battle from yesterday helped take a lot of stress off your back."

"You can say that," Ben said. "I've still trying to find out where Chloé and Hawk Moth are, I want to find a way to cure Chloé for good, and to top that all off, we need to figure out our next move since Ultimate Dai-Shocker could arrive in this World at any moment."

"Well, I'm sure you'll figure it out," Elena said. "Have a good time."

"You too," Ben said as he sent Elena a nod. "Good day."

Gwen smiled. "I'm telling you, Elena, we're getting better and better each day," she said. "You should see the Tai Chi Chasers. You'll like them, they'll give you a real run for your money."

"I'm sure they would," Elena said as she went back to work. All of a sudden, she let out a gasp. In her mind, she could see Albedo teleporting down to Earth. He looked around and grinned before walking away. "I just hope we're prepared for what happens next."

Downtown in Paris, Xavier Ramier, the man formerly known as Mr. Pigeon, was feeding some pigeons by the sidewalk. He smiled at the sight of the birds coming to get food from him before throwing down more breadcrumbs.

All of a sudden, glass was heard breaking. Xavier and the pigeons looked as a robber ran out from a shop with a bag in his hands.

"I've got him!" Alix called out, racing after the robber on her skates.

Xavier continued to watch as Alix chased after the burglar. Eventually, with the slope up ahead, she was able to outrun him. As the burglar was about to take out a gun, she tripped him to the ground, allowing Robin, who had been trailing them running along the roof, to join in. He leapt off of the building he was running on and ran towards the burglar, placing his hands behind his back and handcuffing him.

"Wonderful!" Xavier cheered while the pigeons cooed in agreement. "Marvelously well-played!"

"Thank you." Alix said with a grin as she and Robin fist-bumped with each other.

"Thanks for the help there, Alix," Robin said. "You sure have some skills."

"No problem," Alix said as she picked up the burglar. "I'll take this guy to the station."

Robin nodded. "In that case, I'll head back now," he said. "Need to see what else I can do to help fix the damages."

"See you later." Alix said as she sent Robin a salute.

Robin saluted back and walked down the street.

Not too far from where Robin was talking with Alix, something started to move in the alley next to him. He turned in confusion.

"Is anyone there?" Robin asked.

"Robin?" Starfire's voice came. "Is that you?"

"Starfire?" Robin asked. "What are you doing here? You should be back in Bellwood."

"Professor Paradox brought me here," Starfire said, keeping herself hidden in the shadows. "He told me to help the rest of the Alliance. Where is everyone, Robin?"

"If that's the case, then the rest of the Alliance is helping out around Paris," Robin explained. "I'll let Ben know you're here so he can assign you somewhere to work."

"Thank you, Dick," Starfire said, causing Robin's eyes to widen. "That's all I needed to know."

"When did you start speaking with contractions?" Robin asked. Something hit him. "And how do you know my real name?"

"There's nothing I don't know about you, Robin." Starfire remarked.

Robin reached for a Birdarang, but Starfire came out from the shadows and shot a dark blast at him, throwing him back into a building. As soon as he fell, she let out a chilling laugh.

"Star?" Robin asked.

Starfire continued to hold her hand out before placing it up to her face. Immediately, she turned into Albedo, causing Robin to gasp in horror.

"Hello, Boy Wonder." Albedo said.

"That's impossible!" Robin exclaimed. "This can't be happening!"

"Oh, it's happening." Albedo said as he charged up the cannon on his new arm.

Robin took out his T-Comm. He was about to call for backup until Albedo fired at him.

Alix was coming back from dropping off the burglar. As she passed by Mr. Ramier, they both heard a scream coming from down the street, followed by something dropping to the ground.

"Robin?" Alix asked. She raced around the corner to see the T-Comm clattering on the ground. She gasped as a Birdarang fell after it. "What… what's going on?" she asked. "Where'd he go?"

At the same time, Will was busy with Mireille. The Guardian of Quintessence flew over Trocadéro while Mireille was placing small rods along the ground. As soon as she put the last one down, she looked up to Will and gave her a thumbs-up.

"Quintessence!" Will called out, sending lightning down towards the rods.

Mireille stood back as the lightning hit the rods. They all started to draw electricity off of one another before bringing power back to the streets.

"Nice work, Mireille," Will said as she flew down. "Marinette wasn't kidding when she told me you were a marvel."

"I'm just glad I could help you and the Alliance," Mireille said. She looked back to the lightning rods. "Now, if we're right, this should bring power to everyone until the real power lines are back up."

"Don't thank me for the calculations, thank my friend, Taranee," Will said. "She was the one who helped me ace my math classes."

"Yeah," Will said, unaware that a motorcycle was driving up behind her. It revved up as the two walked away. "Now, we—"

All of a sudden, the motorcycle ran into Will, throwing her forward.

"Will!" Mireille called out.

Will groaned as she got up. She turned around and gasped at the bike.

"The Dark Machine Decader?!" Will exclaimed. She held her hand out towards it. "Quintessence!" she called out, trying to stop it as it ran at her again, but it did not stop. "Mireille, run!" she called out, flying into the air.

Mireille nodded and started to run away as Will flew to evade the Dark Machine Decader. All of a sudden, however, it drove up the stairs and crashed into her, where a mechanical hand was waiting to grab her by the neck.

"Wilma… great to see you again." A familiar voice said.

Will gasped as she turned to see Albedo. "You!" she exclaimed.

Mireille ran up the stairs, hearing Will scream. As she got up, she saw Will get tossed to the ground before disappearing with Albedo.

"Will?!" Mireille called out. "Oh, boy, this isn't good. I need to get help!"

Meanwhile, Ruby was helping Aurore and Armand D'Argencourt clean outside of the School. The red-haired huntress used her Crescent Rose to blast away debris while Aurore caught the falling rubble with her parasol. She closed it up and walked towards a trashcan, where she opened it again and let the debris fall in.

"Thanks for your help," Aurore said. "I'm glad Ben brought an entire Alliance with him."

"Well, not all of the Alliance," Ruby said. "My Team and the rest of the Alliance is still back in Ben's World."

"Still, we are grateful for your assistance," Armand D'Argencourt said. "We thank you."

"No problem," Ruby said as she wiped some sweat off of her forehead. "Okay, let's take a break," she said. "I need to get my water bottle. The rest of you, take some time off."

"We'll be waiting to get back to work." Aurore said.

Ruby smiled. She turned around and walked towards the School to get her stuff. She had just gotten inside when all of a sudden, she heard something moving. She readied her Crescent Rose as she heard the same thing from behind her. She turned around and swung her scythe, but nothing was there.

"I must be imagining things." Ruby said as she turned back around, only to come face to face with Albedo.

"Red like roses, right?" Albedo asked.

"That… that's impossible," Ruby said as she placed her hand behind her back, reaching for a gun. "You're supposed to be dead!"

"Not as much as you!" Albedo exclaimed.

Ruby used her gun to shoot at Albedo, but he placed his mechanical hand in front of the barrel and crumpled the gun before shooting her away with his Dark Ride Booker. Ruby yelled in pain as she was sent back before Albedo shot at her with his cannon.

Mireille and D'Argencourt both heard Ruby yell and turned around, seeing her getting thrown back with her Crescent Rose flying towards them. Aurore caught it just as Ruby vanished into thin air.

"This isn't good," Aurore said as she looked to the Crescent Rose. "We need to find Ben."

"Indeed." Armand said in agreement.

At this time, Rex was cutting down some rubble that was thrown into the road during the battle by Antibug the day before. Max was helping him, as well as Fred Haprèle. They managed to get rid of most of the debris before Rex used his Slam Cannon to gather more rubble from the ground. As soon as he gathered enough, he fired it into the air over the river.

"Looks like that's all the rubble here," Rex said. He retracted his Slam Cannon and looked to Fred and Max. "Thanks for the help, you guys."

"Any time, Rex," Max said. "Glad we could find a way to help."

"Yeah," Ivan said as he and Myléne came over, carrying more debris before putting the rocks into a wagon. "After what Ben's done for us, it's the last we could do."

"It's nice to see everyone pitching in to help," Rex said. "Really means a lot."

All of a sudden, something was tossed at Rex from behind. Rex started to yell in pain as he felt his Nanites start to get overloaded.

"Rex?" Fred asked. "Rex, what's going on?"

Rex continued to scream before turning around, revealing to everyone a Nanite Enhancer placed on his back.

"That thing's messing with Rex!" Myléne exclaimed. "We have to get it off!"

"I'm on it!" Max called out. He ran over to Rex and quickly pulled off the Nanite Enhancer, only for Rex to disappear after, his goggles falling to the ground.

"Where'd he go?" Myléne asked.

At this time, Lila was with Master Fu at his home. As he sat down on the floor, so did Lila. She had removed her shoes and was kneeling in front of Master Fu as he chanted quietly.

"Master Fu, thank you for accepting me as Volpina," Lila said. "I had a rough time trying to fit in, and I want to make up for what I've done when I was under Hawk Moth's control."

"Lila, I've been watching over you for some time," Master Fu said as he stopped chanting. Lila looked to him with confusion. "For someone who just arrived after the fireworks display on the Pont des Arts, you claim to have been through a lot."

"What do you mean?" Lila asked.

Master Fu stood up. He took out his phone and showed her all of her claims she made to Alya on the Ladyblog. "Traveling with Prince Ali, that was after he left," he started to list off. "Jagged Stone wrote a song about you, but he was having trouble coming up with a new song at the time," he went on. "Meeting the stars of Hollywood? You are aware that you didn't even have a pass to see them, and those passes are really hard to come by. And finally, you claimed Ladybug saved you," he finished up, getting Lila to flinch when she remembered what happened with her and Ladybug. "She never even met you upon your arrival."

"I… I just wanted to fit in." Lila said shyly.

"And you let yourself become Hawk Moth's Victim," Master Fu reminded Lila. "Yes, you saw who Ladybug and Cat Noir really were, but you must know that you are in danger of becoming his pawn again if you let your anger boil."

"What do I do?" Lila asked.

Master Fu put away his phone and closed his eyes, starting to chant quietly once again. Lila watched as he channeled the power from Fox Miraculous into the air. "You must overcome yourself to be worthy of being Volpina," he explained as Lila looked around. "You have proven yourself to me and Trixx, but you have a lot to learn to prove yourself to me," he went on. "You must face yourself, and overcome what you fear and hate. Only then can you become a true hero."

"What do you mean?" Lila asked.

Master Fu said nothing. All of a sudden, Ladybug appeared in front of her right out of thin air. Another Ladybug appeared from her from behind, another from her right, and another from her left.

"H-how?" Lila asked.

"Liar…" one of the Ladybug Illusions hissed.

"No…" Lila said as she backed away, only to be pushed by the Ladybug behind her.

"We will NEVER be friends!" the second Ladybug illusion yelled.

"Marinette, please… stop." Lila begged before she glanced to see another Ladybug come at her.

"I hate liars. I never saved you. You never did any of those things." The third Ladybug Illusion remarked.

"Please… I was just trying to fit in!" Lila begged.

"How do I not make the top 10?" the fourth Ladybug Illusion asked. "Do you KNOW how far you went with your lies?"

Lila panted nervously. She breathed in heavily and tucked her arms in as the Ladybug Illusions advanced on her from all ides.. She slowly opened her eyes and took a deep breath. "But… you did save me… from Hawk Moth," she said. "I know it wasn't right to lie, but… everyone seemed so special," she went on as the Ladybugs continued to advance towards her. "I may not make the top 10, not after what I've done, but I know you helped save me. We may not be like this," she said as she crossed her fingers. "But you still saved me. I can't lie about that."

Ladybugs stop advancing and glared at Lila. "INDEED." They all said before fading away.

Lila sighed. "That was scary," she said before she looked to Master Fu. "What's next?"

"See for yourself." Master Fu said. He chanted quietly and created an Illusion of Adrien. Lila turned to him, surprised to see he was sending her a cold look..

"Adrien!" Lila exclaimed.

"Stay away from me!" the illusion of Adrien exclaimed before turning into Cat Noir.

"You don't understand," Lila said. "I never wanted to hurt you."

"Why did you lie to me?" the Adrien Illusion asked, turning his back on her. "Did you know… who you really hurt?"

"I'm… I'm sorry," Lila said. "I was scared…"

"You were selfish!" the Adrien Illusion remarked coldly. "Why did you break my heart and Ladybug's trust? You made me hurt."

"I… I was scared," Lila repeated, more nervously this time. "I didn't know how to fit in. I never meant to hurt anyone," she stated. "Not you, not Ladybug, not Cat Noir, no one. All I wanted to do was fit in… and I went to far," she said shamefully as she looked down. "For that… I'm sorry. You don't deserve me or my trust."

"Maybe…" the Adrien Illusion started out as he turned around to her and smiled. He held out his hand. "But there's always room for a second chance."

Lila sniffled back some tears. "I'll make it up to you, all of you. I promise." She said.

Adrien nodded and disappeared.

"You are doing well," Master Fu said as Lila let out a tear of happiness. "Are you ready for your last test?"

"I'm ready," Lila said with a nod. "I'm not afraid."

Master Fu nodded. "We shall see." He said before he suddenly disappeared.

All of a sudden, a meteorite flew down in front of Lila. Lila gasped and covered her eyes before seeing someone emerge from it. In place of Master Fu and from the flames of the meteorite came Volpina, only with Hawk Moth's Mask over her face and inverted colors. She chuckled as she advanced towards Lila.

Lila noticed the fallen flute of Volpina and grabbed it. "Volpina…" she said quietly.

The Akumatized Volpina chuckled. "Say what you want. I am no illusion," she hissed. "Like you… I'm rotten to the core."

"No I'm not rotten," Lila said as she ran towards Volpina, only to get kicked away. "I was scared and jealous, scared of being the new girl, and jealous of how everyone seemed so special," she said as she got back up. "I just wanted to be friends with everyone."

"You just couldn't accept that you had to lie your way into life." The Akumatized Volpina spat.

"I'm not like that anymore." Lila remarked. She charged at her with the flute, only to be easily disarmed of it.

"Everyone lies, you the most," the Akumatized Volpina said as she grabbed her flute back. "You will go back to what you once were, and no one will ever believe you," she remarked before putting the flute up to her mouth. "Time to hear the music." She quipped before playing the flute, causing rockets to fly down onto Lila.

Lila gasped and ran out of the way. One of the rockets flew towards her, knocking her off of her feet.

"You know better than anyone that I'm stronger than you," the Akumatized Volpina spat. "Give up."

"I'll never do that," Lila said as the Akumatized Volpina picked her up. "Even you should know that."

"Then I guess this is goodbye," the Akumatized Volpina spat. She pulled back her flute, preparing to stab Lila. She narrowed her eyes and closed them before the unexpected happened. The Akumatized Volpina reached her hand to her, helping her up. "You passed the test. Congratulations."

"What do you mean?" Lila asked.

"You've been fighting to prove yourself as a hero," an illusion of Ladybug said. "You have done well."

"What?" Lila asked, feeling confused.

"If you are truly willing to let go and move on, you have passed the tests." An illusion of Cat Noir said before turning into Adrien while Ladybug turned into Marinette.

Lila nodded. The Illusions of Ladybug, Adrien and the Akumatized Volpina soon merged into one, and eventually, into Master Fu.

Master Fu smiled at Lila. He held out the Fox Miraculous to her. "You have done well… Volpina." He proclaimed.

"I knew you could do it!" Trixx cheered as she flew up to Lila. "Great work!"

"For a minute there, I almost doubted myself," Lila said as Trixx flew up to her. "I'm just glad I was able to find the confidence I needed to get through in the end."

Master Fu nodded. "Indeed," he agreed. "Lila Rossi, I believe you have earned the right to become… Volpina."

Lila smiled as Master Fu handed her the Fox Miraculous. "Thank you, Master Fu," she said gratefully with a nod. "I promise not to let you, Ladybug and Cat Noir down. I promise to make you proud."

"You already have." Master Fu said, causing Lila to smile.

Meanwhile, at the stadium, Sabrina was with Kim Possible, watching as Lê Chiến Kim raced around the track. The two redheads smiled at Kim before Kim Possible turned to Sabrina, who was recording his time with a stopwatch and making notes with a notepad.

"Looks like everything is going along smoothly," Kim Possible said as Lê Chiến Kim passed by, finishing another lap. "You adjusting well?" She asked Sabrina, getting the daughter of the Police Lieutenant to look up to her. "You know, with Chloé Akumatized and all?"

"I'm fine," Sabrina said. "To be honest, now that Chloé's not here to boss me around, I have a lot more free time to hang out and actually make some friends."

"I know the feeling," Kim Possible said with a chuckle. "When Ben recruited me and my friends into his Alliance to travel the Worlds, I was able to make some new friends," she explained. "Danny is a bit funny, Tony's smart and responsible… most of the time," she went on, getting Sabrina to chuckle. "Zak is cryptic, and Vert always makes sure that his Teammates are happy. I'm sure that you'll find some nice traits in the friends you make too."

"I think I just might." Sabrina replied with a smile.

Kim Possible and Sabrina chuckled before seeing Lê Chiến Kim come back for another lap. However, before he could reach the girls, dark lightning and fire suddenly struck down onto the track, knocking the kick off of his feet.

"Kim!" Sabrina called out, running to Kim's aid. "You alright?"

"Yeah, I think so," Kim replied before Kim Possible came over. "Where did that come from?"

Kimberly looked towards where the blast had hit. She held out her PDA Kimmunicator and started to scan the scorch mark. "Something about this seems familiar," she said. "I haven't seen a blast like this since…" she started out until realization suddenly hit her. "No!" She exclaimed, seeing someone standing on top of the stadium.

"Kim, what is it?" Lê Chiến Kim asked.

"We have to go!" Kim yelled as she shoved Lê Chiến Kim and Sabrina towards the exit. "Into my car, now!"

Kim Possible led Lê Chiến Kim and Sabrina towards the Sloth. As soon as they were strapped in, Kim drove off, driving at full speed.

"What's going on?" Sabrina asked.

"That attack came from one of Ben's old enemies, one we thought was dead," Kim explained. "Now he's back and—"

Before Kim could finish, the car suddenly hit something and flew spinning into the air.

"What's happening?!" Lê Chiến Kim yelled.

"Sorry, guys." Kim said as she pressed a button, causing Lê Chiến Kim and Sabrina to eject from the Sloth.

Outside, Albedo stood crouched down, his mechanical arm held in front of him. As soon as the Sloth hit him, it flew into the air. The Great Leader of Ultimate Dai-Shocker got up and leapt into the air, kicking the car to the ground, where it spun on the ground before stopping, landing on its side.

Kim and Sabrina both got up. They looked towards the Sloth and gasped as a man in a red jacket walked over and ripped the car door off.

Kim Possible groaned as she tried to get up. She noticed her gun in front of her and tried to reach it while contacting the Mansion and Ben at the same time, but before she could get the chance to do either, the car door in front of her was ripped off, and the gun was smashed.

"What the Hell?" Kim asked. She looked up in surprise to see Albedo hovering over her. "No… it can't be!" She exclaimed. "Ben—"

"He didn't kill me enough." Albedo spat.

Kim sent her cable from her PDA Kimmunicator towards Albedo, but Albedo grabbed it and ripped the watch off of Kim's wrist. In an attempt to fight back, she charged herself up with energy, but Albedo powered up his cannon arm at the same time.

Sabrina and Lê Chiến Kim ran to Kim Possible, but they both heard her yell in terror. The man in the red jacket had his arm aimed down towards where they could only guess Kim was trapped. He lifted his arm up and turned around, leaving the Sloth broken where it was.

Kim walked towards the wreckage and picked up Kim Possible's PDA Kimmunicator. "We've got to get her back." He said to Sabrina.

Sabrina nodded. "We need to find Ben and let him know first." She stated.

Meanwhile, Captain Marvelous was walking outside of the Police Station with Lieutenant Roger. Marvelous had his Gokai Saber in his hand, the blade rested on his shoulder. He looked to Lieutenant Roger as he wrote down some notes in his checkbook.

"Thank you for your help, Captain Marvelous," Lieutenant Roger said. "Thanks to your help, and Robin's too, crime has significantly decreased in Paris."

"No problem," Marvelous said. "But until we find Hawk Moth, we have to—"

Before Marvelous could finish, a red and black streak raced by, knocking him down.

"Captain Marvelous!" Lieutenant Roger exclaimed. He took out his gun and aimed it around. "Who's there?!" He called out.

"Gokai Change!" Marvelous called out, immediately transforming into Gokai Red. He took out the Gokai Gun and shot around, but his shots were suddenly sent back at him. "Where are you?!" He called out angrily.

The red and black streak, a negative version of XLR8. returned, holding the Dark Ride Booker in his hands. In a way similar to AbareKiller, Albedo ran back and forth at Marvelous, slashing at him everywhere until he used his metal hand to grab him by the neck. Marvelous choked before Albedo threw him into a wall. As he bounced off, Dark XLR8 reverted back into Albedo and slashed him with the RideSlayer, sending him to the ground before shooting him and creating a blinding light.

Roger covered his eyes to shield himself from the light. When the light cleared, Albedo was Dark XLR8 again. He raced at Lieutenant Roger and knocked him to the ground before running away from the area.

"This isn't good," Lieutenant Roger said as he got back up. "I have to find Mr. Tennyson."

At the Mansion, Elena was checking on the communications. For the past hour, calls had been coming in from every area where each Alliance Leader was stationed throughout Paris.

Sayo walked over with Tendou. "What's going on, Elena?" The sister of Tsukasa asked.

"That's what I'm asking myself," Elena replied. "There are calls from every area the Alliance went to help out, and I can't even understand a word they're saying," she complained. "They're all coming in too fast for me to understand."

"Kagami is helping out at the Police Headquarters," Tendou said. "I can get there and see what's happening with him."

"Captain Marvelous was there with Lieutenant Roger, but I'm not getting anything from his Mobirates," Elena said. "Best to head there and see what's going on. I've been getting nothing but static."

"What about Ben?" Sayo asked as Julie came over. "Any word from him?"

Elena looked to a blinking emblem of the Omnitrix with the Decade Symbol over it. "Looks like he's fine," she said. "He's at the School with Marinette, Adrien, Nino and Alya, but just in case anything happens, you should go there."

"I'll go too," Julie said. "If there's something wrong, I need to make sure I can help out in any way I can."

"We need you to help by staying here," Sayo ordered. "If something is happening to the Alliance, we can't risk losing any more members."

Julie nodded. "Okay," she said as she patted Sayo on the shoulder. "Good luck out there."

Sayo nodded and ran towards the garage. Kevin watched as she mounted her Machine Dehembra and rode off to the School to check up on Ben.

"Good luck," Elena said. She was about to leave until something came up on the monitor. "What's this?" She asked as she decrypted the message. "This is strange."

"What?" Julie asked. "What is it?"

"Some sort of message," Elena replied. "The weird part is that… it's from another World… in another timeline."

"Play it." Julie said.

Elena nodded and started to play the message.

"Ben Tennyson, if you are listening to this message, then you have already passed through the nine new Worlds," a distorted voice said. "I was hoping the day when he returned would never come… but the World needs Decade again."

At the Pont de Arts Bridge, where padlocks were scattered, Danny Phantom and Zak Saturday, as well as Fiskerton, were clearing up debris that had fallen. While Zak and Fisk were throwing out fallen rocks, Danny was catching them and using the rocks to stabilize the bridge.

"So, you died for three minutes?" Juleka asked Zak as she and Rose helped to put some of the fallen locks back onto the bridge.

"Hard to believe, isn't it?" Zak asked as Fisk grunted in agreement. "Ben actually died longer, and he still came back."

"Whoa!" Rose exclaimed quietly.

"Yeah," Juleka said in agreement. "I still think it's cool you can communicate with creatures," she said before Danny flew up. "And that you're a half ghost."

"All at the age of thirteen," Danny said as he landed on the ground. "Okay, that's all the rubble. The bridge is now stable."

"Now we can join up with—" Zak started out before he and Danny suddenly sensed something. Quickly, he took out the Claw. "Get down!" He called out.

Everyone did as Zak said and took cover, just as blasts rained down on them. Danny created an Ecto Barrier while Zak deflected some blasts with his Claw.

"What's going on?!" Rose yelled.

"We're under attack, that's what's going on!" Zak yelled. "Danny, Fisk, get them to safety! Fisk, stay with them," He ordered. "Danny, when you get them somewhere safe, come back to help me."

"Got it!" Danny called out as he overshadowed Juleka. He used her body to fly to the street while Fiskerton carried Rose alongside him.

"Are you gonna be okay?" Rose asked as Danny in Juleka's body flew down.

"Just stay here and don't run unless things go south," Danny/Juleka ordered. "I'm going back to help."

Rose nodded as Danny flew out of Juleka's body. Juleka placed her hand on her head before Danny flew back. However, just as he took out the Soul Shredder, he was shot down, next to Zak, who was thrown back while his Claw was flung towards Fisk and the girls.

Rose and Juleka ran over to the Claw. As Juleka picked it up, Fisk seemed to gasp in horror.

"Juleka, look!" Rose called out.

Juleka looked up and gasped.

Albedo walked towards Zak and Danny slowly, his cannon arm raised. As soon as he was in front of the two, he retracted his cannon and looked down to them.

"You look new," Albedo said as he looked to Zak. He turned his attention to Danny afterwards. "You, on the other hand, I remember."

"Albedo…" Danny said quietly. He took out the Soul Shredder and slashed at Albedo, only for him to slash it aside with his Ride Booker.

"Shame you didn't put up a fight like last time," Albedo said as he aimed his cannon at Zak and Danny again. "But that won't be a problem… anymore."

Juleka and Rose both covered their mouths as Albedo fired. Rose picked up the Soul Shredder as Juleka clutched the Claw. Fisk grunted and covered them as they ran off.

Albedo noticed this and aimed his cannon until he noticed where Rose, Juleka and Fiskerton were headed.

"You may not be my prey, but at least I get the thrill of the hunt," Albedo said. He looked into the air and saw Iron Man flying around the city. "Looks like my hint just got easier." He said before getting into a leaping position.

At the Collège Françoise DuPont, Ben was busy tutoring Marinette, Adrien, Alya and Nino. He walked over to their desks and looked at how they were progressing with their work. After seeing that they were all doing well, he sent each of them a smile.

"Alright, everything's looking good so far," Ben told the four students. "Good work."

Marinette looked up and smiled. "Thanks Ben." She said.

Ben chuckled. "While in school, Ms Dupain-Cheng, it's Mr. Tennyson." He said with a small smile.

"I'll make sure to remember that." Marinette replied back.

Ben chuckled. All of a sudden, his Omnitrix went off. Marinette, Adrien, Alya and Nino all looked to him with confusion.

"Just let me take this," Ben said as he answered the call. "Tony, what is it?"

"Ben we've got some major—" Tony's voice came in before an explosion went off. "Dah!" He yelled before the transmission went static.

"Tony?" Ben asked. A look of worry came onto his face. "Tony?! Tony, come in!" He called out, only to get no response.

"Everything alright?" Adrien asked.

Ben sighed as he looked to the newest Alliance members. "Stay here." He ordered.

"What's going on?" Alya asked.

"I'm about to find out," Ben said as he started to contact someone else. "Vert, wherever you are, get back to the Mansion with the rest of your team," he ordered before the transmission went static again. Ben looked to see the Caller ID had changed. "Who's this?" He asked with his eyes narrowed.

"Hello, Ben," Albedo's deep voice said, causing the new Alliance recruits to look on with shock as Ben's eyes widened. "How's your swing?"

"No…" Ben said with shock. "It can't be!"

At that moment, a whirring was heard from outside. Everyone turned as the Iron Man Suit, bereft of Tony Stark, crashed into the room. Everyone shielded their eyes as the wall gave away, creating flames. They continued to shield their eyes until they heard footsteps coming from the inferno. Ben, Marinette, Adrien, Alya and Nino all looked up to see someone dragging the damaged Iron Man Suit. The four Parisians continued to look on until Albedo came out. Everyone gaped in horror before Albedo tossed aside the suit.

"Albedo?!" Ben exclaimed. "How are you alive?! I thought you were—"

"You did, didn't you?" Albedo asked. He grinned and held up his new arm. "Can't keep me down forever, I'm afraid."

"Whoa!" Adrien exclaimed.

"Who is this?" Marinette asked.

"This is crazy!" Alya exclaimed.

"He looks just like you!" Nino exclaimed.

"This is my evil doppelgänger, Albedo," Ben explained. "The Leader of Ultimate Dai-Shocker," he went on. "The last time I saw him, I cut his hand off."

"Fortunately, Ronin was able to go to a friend of Ultimate Dai-Shocker and have a new hand built for me," Albedo said. "Courtesy of our friends… the Sark. You know, one of my allies you and Tsukasa defeated," he added on, getting Ben's eyes to go wide. "That's right. I know all about your little time travel adventure. You really think I wouldn't know about there being two Decades in the past?"

"What have you done with my friends?" Ben asked in tranquil fury.

"They're alive… for now," Albedo replied. "You know, I've faced your Alliance long enough to know how to track and capture each of them easily," he taunted. "But you got a new recruit, so you must have been lonely while I was catatonic."

"Things have been peaceful in your absence," Ben quipped. "So, sorry to disappoint."

"Well, some things never change," Albedo mused as he looked to Marinette, Adrien, Alya and Nino. "Still recruiting soldiers."

"We're with the Alliance!" Marinette exclaimed.

"I'm sure you are," Albedo said with a smirk. "Kids, leave your Daddy while he discusses business with his old friend," he teased. "Go and play."

"This is between you and me, Albedo," Ben said sternly as he reached for his Decadriver from inside of his jacket. "Leave them out of this, or else I'll take your other arm."

"Just try it!" Albedo exclaimed as he took out the Dark Decadriver.

Ben and Albedo both placed their Decadrivers on their waists. Everyone watched as they narrowed their eyes at each other before taking out their respective KamenRide Cards.

"Henshin!" Ben called out as he twirled around his Decade KamenRide Card before placing it into the Decadriver.

Albedo calmly held up the Dark Decade KamenRide Card next to his head, holding it with his pointer fingers. "Henshin." He said calmly before placing it into the Dark Decadriver.

KAMEN RIDE: DECADE!

KAMEN RIDE: DARK DECADE!

Ben and Albedo immediately transformed into Kamen Rider Decade and Kamen Rider Dark Decade respectively. While everyone was unfazed by Ben's transformation, the very appearance of Dark Decade surprised them, the black replacing magenta and eerie blue glowing eyes sending a chill down their spines.

"You really want to do this again?" Ben asked as he took out the RideSaber and his Ride Booker in Sword Mode.

Albedo snarled and took out the RideSlayer in his left hand. Ben prepared to attack until the palm of his robotic hand opened up. He yelled and placed the handle of the RideSlayer into it, the dark sword locking into place and charging up.

"I'm ready to win," Albedo remarked as he held his hand out at Ben. "Prepare to die." He announced before shooting at him with his cannon.

"Get out of the way!" Ben called out to Marinette and her friends.

Marinette, Alya, Adrien and Nino got out of the way as Ben started to deflect the blasts with his swords. However, much to his surprise, his RideSaber was actually scratched from the attack.

"What?" Ben asked as he looked to his sword. "But how?"

"There are some things in the Multiverse that are stronger than Tadenite, Tennyson," Albedo spat. "Some stuff can actually break it!"

Ben regained his composure and ran at Albedo, slashing at him with the RideSaber. Albedo simply held up his RideSlayer Arm and blocked the attack before punching Ben in the chest. Ben staggered back, but not before he managed to shoot at Albedo with his Ride Booker in Gun Mode.

Albedo managed to deflect the blasts before sending his own shots from his Dark Ride Booker Gun at Ben. Ben formed a shield on his Omnitrix to deflect the shots before Kamen Rider Dark Decade leapt at him, slamming the RideSlayer against the RideSaber. Just like every time the RideSaber and RideSlayer clashed, blue and black energy dispersed from the swords.

"You don't stand a chance against my new powers!" Albedo exclaimed. "I will make you pay for the Hell you put me through, and I will kill everyone you hold dear… right in front of you!"

"You MONSTER!" Ben yelled, pushing Albedo off and slashing at him with the Ride Booker Sword. Albedo blocked the attack and stabbed into the ground several times. Ben yelled as sparks flew across his chest before Albedo grabbed him and dragged him along the wall, creating more sparks as Marinette, Adrien, Alya and Nino could do nothing but watch with horror.

Albedo tossed Ben to the ground and tried to stab at him, but Ben rolled out of the way. He got back up again and spun around, slashing at Albedo from the air. Albedo looked up and punched Ben away, sending him into the desk, destroying it. Ben panted and took out a Card from his Ride Booker, placing it into the Decadriver.

FINAL ATTACK RIDE: D-D-DECADE!

Ben formed his blasters with both the RideSaber and the Ride Booker as Rider Cards appeared in front of him, all aiming towards Albedo.

"Just try it." Albedo said challengingly.

Ben yelled and shot at Albedo, sending forth massive blasts. However, Albedo simply held the RideSlayer out and spun it around quickly, creating a portal that took away the blasts.

"What?!" Ben exclaimed.

All of a sudden, the same portal appeared behind Ben. Ben yelled as the blasts hit him in the back, sending him flying across the room towards Albedo. Albedo spun around and slashed at Ben while he was in midair, causing him to eject out of his Rider Form and land on the ground painfully.

"Ben!" Marinette called out.

Ben panted as Albedo advanced towards him.

"I would have waited an eternity for this," Albedo said as he aimed the RideSlayer at Ben's neck. "It's over, Tennyson."

"Never!" Ben yelled, slashing Albedo away with the RideSaber.

Albedo gasped as he fell back. He regained himself quickly as Ben slashed at him again. However, Albedo disarmed him, sending the RideSaber into the air before slashing its blade in half.

"No…" Ben said before Albedo slashed him towards the wall.

"Finally, I can take my vengeance…" Albedo said as he detached the RideSlayer from his arm. "For this."

"You should thank me," Ben quipped as he looked up, coughing up some blood. "It appears to be an improvement," he said. "You can go to Hell for all I care."

"That can be arranged," Albedo said as he charged up his cannon. "That's what I've done to your friends after all."

Ben got up and ran at Albedo, but Albedo already fired at him. Ben yelled as he was blasted backwards, being vanishing from the room.

"No!" Adrien called out.

"What have you done?!" Marinette snarled.

Albedo chuckled. "I just got my satisfactions worth," he remarked. "Soon, the Alliance will be a bother to Ultimate Dai-Shocker no more."

"You wanna bet?!" Nino exclaimed as he picked up a chair. "You won't get away with this!"

"You're going to pay for that, Albedo!" Marinette called out.

Albedo slowly turned his head to the Parisians. As menacing as he looked, none of them backed down. "The Alliance is no more," he proclaimed. "Not only have I pried Tony Stark using nothing but my own hands, but I have managed to defeat Ben Tennyson," he announced as Alya slowly walked toward Tony's downed and empty armor. "What can children like you do to stop me?"

"You're about to find out!" Alya exclaimed, causing Albedo to turn to her. She picked up the Iron Man Suit and spread her arms out, letting it come onto her. It sparked from the damage Albedo dealt it, but she still managed to make her stand.

"Tikki…" Marinette started out angrily as Tikki flew to her. "SPOTS ON!"

"PLAGG, CLAWS OUT!" Adrien called out in anger as well.

Both Marinette and Adrien let Tikki and Plagg respectively enter their Miraculouses. They thrust their arms out to the side, gaining white bodysuits before spinning around, gaining the Ladybug and Cat Noir Suits respectively. Marinette pulled her fists across her face, giving herself her mask before gaining her Yo-Yo while Adrien clawed his hand in front of his face, gaining his mask and ears before gaining his staff.

"You're going down, Albedo!" Ladybug exclaimed as she pulled out the LadyBlade, placing her Yo-Yo onto the guard.

"So, Tennyson has recruited teenagers to fight for him again?" Albedo asked. He let out a scoff. "And to think a World of Hunters and Huntresses was something else," he mused as Ladybug, Cat Noir, Nino and Alya all stared him down. "Are you all really willing to join Tennyson? I won't be holding back, especially against children."

"Neither will we!" Cat Noir yelled.

"Well, then…" Albedo started out as he slashed the RideSlayer down. "Welcome to my Nightmare!"

Ladybug slashed down the LadyBlade and ran at Albedo, tossing her Yo-Yo at him. Albedo knocked it aside before she pulled it back onto her guard and slashed at him. Albedo held up his RideSlayer and blocked Ladybug's attack, but Ladybug continued to press on, trying to push him back.

"JARVIS, how are we looking?" Alya asked as she looked to the systems within the Iron Man Suit.

"Power is at seventy percent." JARVIS reported.

"That's just about all I need to send Albedo to kingdom come!" Alya exclaimed before shooting at Albedo with the Repulsor Arm.

Albedo took notice of Alya and broke off with Ladybug. As Ladybug staggered back, the Great Leader of Ultimate Dai-Shocker slashed right through the blast, sending both blasts to the side, causing explosions that destroyed part of the room.

Nino ran in and slammed the chair in his hands onto Albedo. Albedo turned around and held his left hand up, letting the chair shatter on it. Nino gasped and used the leg of the chair, the only thing remaining of it, to fend off against the Great Leader of Ultimate Dai-Shocker, only for it to break after three swings from the RideSlayer.

"Hey!" Cat Noir called out.

Albedo turned to see Cat Noir splitting his staff in half. He tossed one of the staffs at Albedo, who grabbed it with his left hand once again. Albedo spun around and threw it back at Cat Noir, who ran at him and caught the staff. He slammed both staffs down onto the RideSlayer, starting to send Albedo backwards. Albedo growled and slammed the RideSlayer onto Cat Noir, forcing him to put his staff back together and block the attack. However, the force of the blow was too strong, and he was sent back from a side kick from Albedo.

Ladybug leapt at Albedo, slashing at him with the LadyBlade once again. Albedo back stepped and held up the RideSlayer, only for Ladybug to spin around and send a kick towards him.

"Now you're starting to make me mad." Albedo hissed softly.

"Good, because I'm just getting started!" Ladybug exclaimed before sending a downwards slash towards Albedo.

Albedo held up the RideSlayer again, but Ladybug slashed up before sending forth a series of fast jabs towards him. Albedo managed to match Ladybug's speed, parrying each attack before punching her away towards the door, almost getting sent out of the room.

"Cataclysm!" Cat Noir called out, charging up his Cataclysm hand. He ran at Albedo while Nino used his staff.

"Go!" Ladybug called out as she ran at Albedo as well.

"You're going down!" Alya yelled as she flew at Albedo with the reserve power of the Iron Man Suit, letting out two blades from the arms.

"I admit, you all have put up a challenge," Albedo said as he clashed with Ladybug before parrying away Nino. He sent Alya away before grabbing Cat Noir's Cataclysm hand. "But not even your powers can match mine." He remarked before redirecting Cat Noir towards the wall leading to the rest of the school, causing it to give away.

"JARVIS, focus all power to the Arc Reactor!" Alya ordered.

"Power now diverted to Arc Reactor," JARVIS reported. "You may fire when ready."

"Hey, Albedo!" Alya yelled, causing Albedo to turn to her. "Have a taste of this!"

Alya fired all the power from the Arc Reactor at Albedo, who held up the RideSlayer. However, the blast engulfed him and sent him over the edge to the ground in the courtyard below, where Kim, Alix, Max, Ivan, Myléne, Fred, Armand, Mireille, Roger, Sabrina, Juleka, Rose, Fiskerton and the rest of the former villains of Hawk Moth had all gathered.

Sayo rode towards the School, seeing the explosion that had just gone off.

"Hold on!" Sayo called out as she revved her engine again. "I'm coming!"

Alya walked forward as the Iron Man Armor fell off of her. "That did it," she said before she, Ladybug, Cat Noir and Nino all looked down. "Did we get him?"

Everyone looked towards the crater that Albedo had caused. All of a sudden, flames shot out from it, and Albedo let out a roar. He laughed as he emerged from the flames, swinging around his RideSlayer as it gathered the fire from it.

"Get him!" Ladybug called out. "He murdered Ben!"

"Away with you, foul creature!" Armand D'Argencourt called out as he ran forward with his sword.

"No mercy!" Kim called out as he ran in as well.

Albedo scoffed. "Oh, please." He said before turning around and slamming the RideSlayer down onto Armand D'Argencourt's sword, breaking it. D'Argencourt gasped before the Great Leader of Ultimate Dai-Shocker tossed him into the air, right into Ladybug.

With Albedo distracted, Kim and Ivan rammed themselves into him, but he elbowed them in the back and slashed them into the sky. "Dark Sonic Boom!" he called out, sending them into the Homeroom before Fisk ran in and threw him onto the upper levels.

Alix skated towards Albedo with metal rod while Sabrina tossed her board at him. Albedo crushed the board with his mechanical hand before slashing apart the rod into small pieces. Alix gasped as Albedo grabbed her by the collar and swung her towards Kim before Sabrina tried to perform a kick on him. Albedo grabbed her leg and tossed her up high as well, where Cat Noir managed to grab her.

Juleka and Rose ran up, both with their fists pulled back while Myléne ran in with both of her fists ready. Albedo threw Myléne behind him as Juleka and Rose leapt into the air for a twin punch. Both of them tried to punch Albedo, but he threw the two girls into the air before he blasted them towards the homeroom with the cannon on his mechanical arm. He kicked Fisk into the air and towards the homeroom as well.

Nathanaël and Max both tossed rocks at Albedo, but he slashed them apart before stabbing into the ground. Both of the boys yelled as they were tossed up, being sent towards the others.

Aurore slammed her parasol at Albedo while Mireille threw her crystal ball at him. Albedo threw the crystal ball back at Mireille, sending her into the doorway while he slashed apart Aurore's parasol. Aurore gasped and ran to attack Albedo with what little she had left, only for him to threw her towards the Homeroom.

Roger ran in and used his gun to shoot at Albedo, only form him to crush the gun with his left hand before getting knocked aside easily. Albedo was about to finish off Roger until Cat Noir ran in and slammed him back down to the lower levels.

Albedo looked up and snarled, charging up his RideSlayer.

"What do we do now?" Alix asked.

All of a sudden, as Ladybug was trying to thing, she heard flute melody play. She turned around and gasped. "You!" she exclaimed.

"Dark Sonic Boom!" Albedo snarled, sending forth a Dark Sonic Boom towards the Parisians. However, as they all shielded themselves with their arms, they disappeared in a cloud of smoke. "What?!" he exclaimed.

At that moment, Volpina stepped forward. "I hope you liked my music, because I've got plenty more where that came from."

At the time, Chloé was passing by. She was still wearing the red coat that replaced her original yellow one until she saw Sayo race towards the School.

"What on Earth is going on?" Chloé asked. She walked over to the School and noticed Albedo staring down Volpina. "Oh…" she said with realization. "Interesting…"

"If you stand in my way… you're my enemy," Albedo said as he looked to Volpina. "Who are you?"

"You can call me Volpina!" Volpina exclaimed.

"Volpina… die!" Albedo yelled before sending forth a Dark Sonic Boom towards Volpina, followed by multiple shots from his Arm-Mounted Cannon.

Volpina disappeared in smoke before she suddenly reappeared behind Albedo, slashing at him with her flute. Albedo groaned and turns around to see her. He let out growl before slashing away at her wildly, each time with her disappearing in a cloud of smoke. Soon, he found himself surrounded by Volpina Clones, all armed and ready.

Albedo spun around and sent Dark Sonic Booms everywhere at all of Volpina's Illusions, eventually knocking the real Volpina into the air. Volpina yelled before she narrowed her eyes down, throwing her flute towards Albedo's arm, knocking him down. Volpina eventually managed to regain herself and land back on the ground. She ran to grab her flute, running in to finish him off until a black-and-red Yo-Yo suddenly wrapped itself around her arms.

"What?!" Volpina exclaimed.

"Not so fast, pesky Fox!" a voice called out.

Volpina turned to the side as she still tried to get loose. Much to her surprise, Chloé, transformed into Antibug, was the one restraining her.

"Let me go!" Volpina yelled.

Antibug chuckled before she pulled Volpina in toward her, kicking her towards the upper level. She leapt up and took out the AntiBlade, slashing at her while she tried to fend her off with her flute. The two pressed their weapons against each other before Chloé forced her into the Homeroom.

Albedo leapt up and ran at Volpina, knocking Antibug out of the way. He slashed her down relentlessly before kicking her towards the ledge where he made the Iron Man Suit crash. As soon as she seemed like she was losing her balance, he shot energy chains at her to keep her in place before taking out a Card and quickly inserting it into the Dark Decadriver.

FINAL ATTACK RIDE: D-D-DARK DECADE!

"What?" Antibug asked as she looked up.

Albedo leapt into the air as Dark Rider Cards appeared in front of him, leading towards Volpina. He roared and landed a more powerful version of his Dark Dimension Kick on her, causing an explosion and sending her into the streets, where everyone else was hiding.

Volpina groaned as she lay on the ground, singing with flames. Everyone ran over to help her up as Ladybug looked up to Albedo, who was staring them all down under his helmet.

"This isn't over!" Ladybug called out, taking out a damaged Repulsor Arm. She threw it down, causing an explosion. Albedo shielded his eyes from the smoke before turning back. He saw that everyone was gone, and the pieces of the RideSaber were gone as well.

Antibug got back up. "You are not the Decade I know and hate!" she spat. "Who are you?!"

Albedo turned around and selected Terraspin on his Ultimatrix, blowing Antibug into the wall.

"You will learn to know and respect me if you want to live!" Albedo spat as he brought the RideSlayer to her body. "Where are the other Villains of this World?" he demanded.

"Right behind you." Antibug's voice said before the same red and black Yo-Yo was wrapped around Albedo's arms.

"What?!" Albedo exclaimed as he turned around, seeing another Antibug with several Worms.

"Did you really think you could get the drop on me?" Antibug asked smugly.

Albedo let out a chuckle. "Kabuto… Worms…" he said. "Once again, another shared World in the Multiverse," he mused, causing Antibug to raise an eyebrow in confusion. He spun around and swung Chloé hard to the board. He started to walk towards her, using AmpFibian's powers to probe her mind. "And you have a Master too," he said. "Well, I'm the Master now, so tell Hawk Moth that you and he now serve me and Ultimate Dai-Shocker," he ordered as the Worm imitating her stalked up behind him. "If you refuse…" he started out before turning around and slashing at the Worm multiple times to the point it exploded to death, causing Chloé to squeak nervously. "Am I clear?"

Antibug gulped nervously. "Y-yes, Sir," she said before getting up and looking to the Worms with her. "Move out!" She ordered as she and her forces ran towards the door.

Albedo chuckled and followed after Antibug and the Worms. However, before any of them could leave, several blasts made impact on the ground. Albedo covered his eyes with his arm before seeing a tiger humanoid figure with a blaster aimed at them.

"Out of the way!" Albedo yelled, shooting at the figure with his RideSlayer in Fusion Cannon Mode.

The tiger disappeared upon getting blasted. In his place stood Sayo, walking towards them with the DehemDriver in her hand, unfazed by what Albedo just threw at her.

"Sayo!" Antibug yelled.

"The Kadoya Sister?" Albedo asked. He let out a chuckle. "I must have missed out on a lot during my time in a coma."

"You almost killed my brother, Albedo," Sayo said as she aimed the DehemDriver at the Great Leader of Ultimate Dai-Shocker. "I've been waiting a long time for the chance to return the favor."

"The last Kadoya active, and I've been waiting to kill you too," Albedo said as he slashed the RideSlayer down and clenched his metal fist. He turned to Chloé. "Take your Worms and leave us," he ordered. "I will join you once I am done disposing of this obstacle."

"Take your time," Sayo quipped. "I'm here all day."

"Well, this should be fun." Albedo mused as he and Sayo stared each other down.

"Move out." Chloé ordered her Worms as they made their way toward the door.

Sayo did nothing to prevent Chloé and her Worms from escaping. She continued to stare down Albedo while tightening her grip on her DehemDriver while Albedo calmly tinkered with his new metal fingers.

The wind blew by the two as they readied their Rider Cards for battle. As soon as the breeze stopped, they charged towards each other.

"Henshin!" Sayo called out as she placed her Dehembra Card into her DehemDriver Sword.

"Henshin!" Albedo yelled, placing his Dark Decade Card into the Dark Decadriver.

KAMEN RIDE: DE-HEMBRA!

KAMEN RIDE: DARK DECADE!

Yellow barcodes came from Sayo while black barcodes came from Albedo. Both sets hit each other before returning to their owners, giving Sayo her armor, transforming into Kamen Rider Dehembra while Albedo was transformed into Kamen Rider Dark Decade.

Albedo tossed the RideSlayer out in front of him while opening up the palm of his mechanical prosthetic arm. Sayo twirled around her DehemDriver Sword before Albedo used his RideSlayer Arm to slash at her. She leapt over the blade and slashed at him from behind, only for him to hold his RideSlayer up behind his back.

Albedo turned around and slashed at Sayo, who blocked the attack with her DehemDriver Sword. She broke off and knocked him away with the pommel of her sword before Albedo slashed at her legs. Sayo leapt over the blade of the RideSlayer and slashed back at him. Albedo blocked her attacks high and low as she pushed him back before the two locked blades in the air up high. Sayo took this chance to punch him in the chest. Albedo groaned before Sayo spun around and slashed him across the chest, sending him staggering backwards.

Sayo panted as she walked towards Albedo, aiming her DehemDriver Sword down at him. "Yield, Albedo," she ordered. "Yield… and this goes no further."

Albedo panted as well. "You fought well, I'll give you that," he said before getting back up. "But even with honor… you still don't stand a chance against me."

Sayo narrowed her eyes at Albedo and readied her DehemDriver Sword. Albedo spun around the RideSlayer and charged at Sayo, who charged up the DehemDriver and charged back at him, the two letting out vicious battle cries.

Meanwhile, Tendou and Kagami were walking back to the Mansion. Tendou was on the phone with someone before hanging up and ending the call. He turned to Kagami.

"Daisuke says he and ZECT detected unusual Worm Activity near Notre Dame," Tendou told Kagami. "Are you sure you couldn't see what attacked Captain Marvelous at the Police Station?"

"Positive," Kagami replied. "It was moving too fast for me to see," he said before letting out a sigh. "Hopefully, Sayo, Marinette, Adrien, Alya, Nino and Ben are having as much luck as we are."

"You'd better hope again." Marinette's voice said.

Tendou and Kagami turned to see Marinette, Adrien, Alya and Nino heading towards the Mansion with Volpina and the rest of the Parisians who went up against Albedo.

"Marinette!" Tendou exclaimed as he and Kagami ran towards the group. "What happened to you?!"

"Dark Decade, that's what," Volpina said. "He took us all down."

"So what do we do now?" Aurore asked.

"We need to come up with a plan," Adrien said. "We need to recover and find a way to defeat him."

"How do we do that?" Kim asked.

Marinette sighed before turning to the disguised Mansion. "JARVIS, I need you to grant access to everyone with us," she ordered. "Override Code 10."

"All Civilians Authorized," JARVIS said as he scanned everyone. "You may proceed inside."

Tendou and Kagami both helped the other Parisians into the Mansion, where Gwen, Kevin, Julie and Elena ran to them immediately.

"Marinette, are you okay?" Gwen asked. "Elena picked up strange disturbances all over where the Alliance was, and we got worried."

"What happened?" Julie asked.

"Some guy called Kamen Rider Dark Decade attacked everyone in the Alliance." Rose started to explain.

"He did something to them," Kim added on, showing everyone Kim Possible's PDA Kimmunicator. "We hardly stood a chance."

"And he looked just like Ben too!" Marinette exclaimed, causing Ben's friends and cousin to gasp. "His name was—"

"Albedo," Julie finished. "But how is that possible? I thought Ben cut his arm off."

"He got a new one," Adrien explained. "It has a cannon."

"Only one guess as to who got him that arm." Kaito said.

"Right," Kevin said with a nod. "Ronin."

"Who's Ronin?" Alya asked.

"The Soul Archer Rider," Yuusuke explained. "He's the Rider of Ultimate Dai-Shocker who weakened Tsukasa enough for the Dark Rider Squadron to defeat him."

"And Ultimate Dai-Shocker is the organization threatening the Multiverse that Ben warned us about," Marinette explained to everyone else. She turned back to Gwen, Julie, Kevin, Elena and the Riders. "Can we get in touch with the rest of the Alliance back in Ben's World?"

"Ben ordered them to remain back in the other World in our absence, but if Albedo's back, we're going to need all the help we can get if we're to have any chance at bringing down Albedo for good."

"Right," Marinette said with a nod. She turned to the monitor. "JARVIS, bring up all contacts within the Alliance," she ordered. "We need to see who is available to help us."

"SHIELD, WITCH, Team RWBY, JNPR, Seraph Corps Students, Avengers, Team Possible, Team Phantom, Battle Force 5, Providence…" JARVIS listed off.

"Contact all of them," Adrien ordered. "Tell them that Albedo is awake, and he's attacked the Alliance. We need help."

"Contacting SHIELD Director Phil Coulson now. Weiss Schnee on dial." JARVIS said as the numbers to Phil Coulson and Weiss Schnee came up.

All of a sudden, the door started to rattle. Everyone turned to the door in surprise, all using the dropped weapons each Alliance Leader left behind in case they had to fight. However, the door opened, and in came Sayo, limping along the wall.

"Sayo!" Gwen exclaimed.

"Help…" Sayo said weakly before dropping to the ground.

"Sayo!" Marinette exclaimed as she ran over and caught the sister of Tsukasa Kadoya. She placed her ear to her chest and sighed in relief. "She's still alive," she told everyone. "But I recognize the gashes, they're from the RideSlayer," she said before turning to Gwen. "Gwen, you a good medic?"

"I'll try," Gwen said as she came over and picked up Sayo. "Hang in there."

Volpina placed her hand to her chest. "Will she be alright?" she asked.

"I hope so," Marinette said before turning to Lila. "And Lila?"

"Yes?"

"How in the Multiverse are you Volpina?!" Marinette exclaimed.

Volpina spread out her arms, turning back into Lila. As she regained herself, Trixx flew out from her real Fox Miraculous.

"You won't believe this, but when Madame Zect was still around, she attacked an old man," Lila started to explain. "I was around to save him just in time, and in return, he gave me the real Fox Miraculous. And a Kwami named Trixx."

"Lila's bravery proved herself capable of becoming Volpina." Trixx said as Tikki and Plagg flew up to her.

"And you'll never believe what I found out." Lila added on.

"What's that?" Marinette asked.

"One of my family members actually was Volpina." Lila said excitedly.

"Really?" Marinette asked. "Wow, that's so cool!" she exclaimed before clearing her throat. "Um, well, now that you know about me and Adrien…"

"Hey, I know that jealousy feeling," Lila said as she placed her hand on Marinette's shoulder. "I never even met you until you turned out to be Ladybug. We're cool. Don't worry."

Marinette smiled. "Thanks," she said. "Welcome aboard."

"Miss Dupain-Cheng, I have made contact with the Battle Force 5." JARVIS reported.

Marinette turned to the monitor and nodded. "Put them through." She ordered.

"This is Sage," Sage's voice came in. "What's the problem?"

"You know Ben, right?" Marinette asked. "And the battle against Dai-Shocker? Well, now it's become Ultimate Dai-Shocker, and its leader, Albedo, is back, and he took Ben! We need backup!"

"The leader of Dai-Shocker has returned?" Sage asked in surprise back at the base. Vert and the rest of the Battle Force 5 ran over as soon as they heard this.

"Yeah, and the situation is bad right now," Adrien said. "We need help!"

"We're on it!" Vert exclaimed. "But… who are you?"

"We're new recruits," Marinette explained. "When can we expect a Storm Shock?"

"I will repurpose a Battle Key to get the Battle Force 5 to your location," Sage said. "Send me your coordinates, and they will be there as quickly as they can."

"To take on Albedo, we're going to need all the help we can get!" Alya exclaimed as Marinette sent Sage the coordinates of her World.

"Here we go, Sayo," Gwen said as she put down Sayo's Card on a table, unknowingly letting the Quantic Ride Cards scatter. "Until we get you better, you're not going anywhere."

Alix turned to the table, seeing something catch her eye. She walked over and picked up the Timebreaker Quantic Ride Card. As she looked to it, memories of her time as Timebreaker flashed through her mind.

"Um, guys?" Alix asked as everyone looked to her. "You'd better come here and see this."

Everyone walked over towards Alix and looked to the Cards. Ivan picked one up, and immediately, memories of his time as Stoneheart flashed through his head like Alix's memories of Timebreaker.

"These are us!" Ivan exclaimed. "Or… were."

"Let me see," Alya said as she picked up her Lady WiFi Card while Nino picked up the Bubbler Card. She started to see her time when she was first Akumatized, followed by a time when she attacked Marinette with Stormy Weather, and finally, a time when she fought Ladybug with Cat Noir, RogerCop and the Evillustrator under the control of Puppeteer. "Whoa!" she exclaimed.

"I know!" Nino exclaimed. "I looked ridiculous!"

"I remember now," Juleka said as she looked to the Reflekta Card. "I could change everyone's appearance!"

"Bet you couldn't control people with the touch of a phone." Alya teased.

"Focus here!" Marinette called out, getting everyone to turn to her. "If you can remember your powers, or if JARVIS can find some way to help you use them again, we could get the jump on Albedo."

"I believe I CAN help with that," JARVIS said. "I can't guarantee I can replicate all of the abilities you once had, though."

"But you can't be reckless with your powers again." Adrien told everyone.

Kim scoffed as he looked to his Dark Cupid Card. "How reckless do you think we are?" he asked as thought ran through his mind.

"Kim!" Natsumi called out with her thumb up.

Kim turned around before Natsumi performed the Hikari Family Secret Technique on his neck, causing him to laugh with a pained look on his face.

"What did you just do?" Marinette asked in surprise.

"Hikari Family Secret Technique: Laughter Pressure Point." Natsumi explained.

"Will he be okay?" Rose asked.

"Who cares?" Alix asked with a grin on her face as Natsumi made her way toward her. "I like him like this."

At that moment, Natsumi punctured Alix as well, causing her to drop to the floor and laugh worse than Kim was.

"Hikari Family Secret Technique: Laughter Pressure Point Level 2." Natsumi proclaimed.

"How many levels are there?!" Marinette exclaimed.

Natsumi nodded as she held up her thumb. Everyone backed away nervously, not wanting to get punctured.

"Ms. Césaire, Mr. Lahiffe, Ms. Couffaine, I have prepared something for you in the lower basement," JARVIS said as Alya, Nino and Juleka looked up. "It should help even up the playing field if you are to go up against Albedo."

"If it helps us against Albedo, we're in." Alya said.

"Good thing I'm not with them," Sabrina mused as she looked to Alix and Kim, still laughing. "I remember what my powers were, and I didn't even get a cool costume!"

"Uh, Sabrina?" Nathanaël asked as Natsumi made her way towards Sabrina.

"I, for one, am glad I'm not with the laughing stock," Sabrina went on as everyone backs away the moment Natsumi went closer to her. "Just wish I could be Vanisher again."

"HIKARI FAMILY SECRET TECHNIQUE: LAUGHTER PRESSURE POINT LEVEL 3!" Natsumi called out before pressure-pointing Sabrina.

Sabrina started to laugh and cry with a pained expression on her face. She fell to the ground with Kim and Alix as they continued to laugh as well.

Marinette looked to her laughing friends with an eyebrow raised. "Right…" she said before going with Alya, Nino and Juleka to the basement. "I'm going to go see what JARVIS had planned for the others." She said as Adrien nodded before he, Tikki and Plagg joined her.

Downstairs, everyone looked around with wonder at the basement. Ben had shown them a lot of places in the Mansion, but never before had they seen this area.

"Okay, this is definitely not one of the places Ben showed us." Nino said as he looked around.

Juleka nodded before she turned to see the Ghost Portal. "Look at that," she said. "Danny told me and Rose about that. I think it's called a Ghost Portal."

"Go to the laboratory on your right." JARVIS instructed the Parisians as they continued to venture further down into the basement.

"Whatever you say, JARVIS," Alya said as they all headed towards the lab, where Marinette, Adrien and their Kwamis caught up to them. Alya looked around to suddenly see an array of Iron Man Suits. "Whoa!" She exclaimed.

"I should have known Tony has backup suits," Marinette mused before she saw a familiar scythe rested against the wall. "Oh, and look at that. Ruby keeps a spare Crescent Rose too." She remarked.

"I shall need to scan you three for combat upgrades based on your abilities as the Bubbler, Lady WiFi and Reflekta." JARVIS said to Nino, Alya and Juleka respectively.

"Does this mean we all get suits?" Nino asked.

"You get a better one than your old suit." JARVIS teased.

"Anything's better than my old suit." Nino remarked, still thinking back on his old suit.

"Even a creepy clown suit?" Alya teased.

"Not that! Anything but that!" Nino exclaimed nervously.

"I shall begin scanning now." JARVIS said as everyone looked up.

"But what about the others?" Marinette asked.

JARVIS suddenly stopped talking. Everyone looked around before something started to emerge from one of the suit chambers in the room. A body with purple skin, a gold cape and a green suit emerged.

"While your friends are being scanned down here, I can scan your friends upstairs as well," the robot said with the voice of Vision. "Once Alya, Nino and Juleka are finished, I will see what I can do for your other friends."

Everyone looked to JARVIS with their jaws dropped. The robot looked around in confusion. "What?" He asked.

"JARVIS?!" Marinette exclaimed.

"You've got a body?!" Adrien exclaimed.

"I didn't see that coming." Tikki said.

"This was a body made for me and powered by Tony Stark and Thor," JARVIS explained. He pointed to a gemstone on his forehead. "With this Stone powering my body, I am known as the Vision."

"Well, that's useful." Plagg mused.

Vision nodded before he turned to Alya, Nino and Juleka. "Once you are finished being scanned, step onto the upgrade panel, and you shall receive powers not from your previous experience, but from our adaptive technology." He said before he walked up and phased through Marinette and Adrien.

Marinette shivered. "I didn't know he could do that!" She exclaimed.

"Sorry!" Vision called out before he made his way upstairs.

"I hope you realize that even with our powers, Albedo will just capture us as easily as the Alliance." Nino said.

Marinette placed her hand to her chin. "You know, that gives me an idea, but Adrien, Lila and I need to get captured for it to work."

"Scanning Complete." Friday's voice said as soon as Alya, Nino and Juleka were scanned.

"Alya, if you get back your Lady WiFi Powers, we need you to get to Le Grand Paris to pick up something from Chloé's closet," Marinette said to Alya as she started to get a suit. "I'll explain the rest to the others after JARVIS, I mean, Vision, finishes scanning them."

"Got it." Alya said with a nod.

Marinette nodded before Alya gained a metallic suit of her Lady WiFi Suit. "You look good." She said.

"Yeah," Alya said as she looked to herself. She took out her phone and took a deep breath. "Well… wish me luck."

Marinette nodded as Alya went into her phone, traveling through the Cyberworld to Le Grand Paris.

Nino stepped down with a new version of his Bubbler Suit, armed with a sharper sword. Juleka stepped down as well, donned with a dark pink suit with details from her time as Reflekta, as well as two wrist watches on her arms and a headpiece with a mic on her head.

"Are you sure about this?" Tikki asked Marinette.

"Trust me. Now that we have the weapons and upgrades for everyone…" Marinette said as Kim, Max and Sabrina came down. "We can get the jump on him."

"If you ask me, we would have a better advantage if we had that Hammer on our side." Plagg said as everyone turned to Mjölnir on the table.

"Remember what Ben said: only someone who is worthy enough can lift Thor's Hammer." Adrien reminded his Kwami.

Vision walked by and easily picked up Mjölnir, causing Marinette, Adrien and Nino to look on in surprise. "Alya called and said she'll be back soon," he told them. "While everyone is getting ready, you had better let us in on your plan."

"Vision?! You?! The Hammer?! Wha—?!" Marinette stuttered.

"What is it this time?" Vision asked.

"Ben said that only someone worthy could lift the hammer," Marinette explained as she regained her composure. "How can you lift it?"

"We've actually been trying to figure that out for some time now." Vision replied honestly.

"Right," Marinette said as everyone else got down. "So… here's the plan…"

Later on, Ladybug, Cat Noir and Volpina were all running through the streets of Paris. They leapt over cars as policemen, with Kagami, put up barricades to prevent anyone from interfering.

"Cat Noir, Volpina, come on!" Ladybug called out. "We have to find Albedo before he finds out about Hawk Moth!"

"Right!" Cat Noir called out.

"I'm with you!" Volpina called out as she followed after the first two Miraculous Holders.

The three continued to run until they turned a corner. They gasped as they suddenly fount Antibug with some Worms with her.

"Hey there, Marinette Dupain-Cheng," Antibug said before she looked to Volpina. "What does the fox say?"

"You're going down!" Volpina called out as she clenched her fist angrily.

"GO!" Ladybug and Cat Noir both called out in unison before the three charged at Antibug.

"Now, for my surprise!" Antibug called out as she took out her Yo-Yo. She spun it around before hitting each of the three, paralyzing them on sight.

"I had a feeling Albedo would supply us with something useful. Nice move, Antibug," Hawk Moth said as his Mask appeared over Chloé's face. "Now, take them to the others. Once they are no more, we shall take their Miraculouses! I will meet you at the rendezvous point."

"Yes, Hawk Moth!" Antibug replied before she looked to her Worms. "Take them!"

The Worms complied as they started to take Ladybug, Cat Noir and Volpina. Another Worm arrived and followed after them.

At a hidden base within Trocadéro, Antibug and her Worms arrived. Ben and the rest of the Alliance Leaders were all lined up, frozen in place with their faces in fear from when Albedo attacked them.

"This is rich," Antibug said as the Worms were put next to the Alliance. "You all fell into my trap so easily. Now, Master Albedo will—"

"Out of my way!" Albedo called out as he pushed Chloé aside. "Where is Hawk Moth?"

"Must be late," Antibug replied with a shrug. "So, look at all of Ben Tennyson's Alliance. Frozen in fear before our might."

"And these three," Hawk Moth said as he looked to Ladybug, Cat Noir, Volpina. "Are the heroes of your World?"

Antibug nodded before looking around. She let out a scoff. "Kabuto must have been a coward not to show himself to me," she said. "Nonetheless, everything went as planned."

One of the Worms looked out from behind a pillar. The Worm pressed the side of its head, revealing to be Juleka. She smirked as Sabrina, with a transparent metal suit, appeared out of thin air next to her.

"Turn Ben Tennyson to his new recruits." Albedo ordered.

Antibug nodded and did just that, turning Ben to face Ladybug, Cat Noir and Volpina.

"What now?" Antibug asked.

"He's going to watch as I wipe his children out of existence!" Albedo yelled. He charged up RideSlayer before slashing at all three Miraculous Holders, causing Chloé to squeak nervously.

Suddenly, much to Albedo's surprise, only the Ladybug, Cat Noir and Volpina Suits fell to the ground. No bodies were found from the attack as the Great Leader of Ultimate Dai-Shocker looked on in shock.

"What?!" Albedo exclaimed in disbelief as he picked up the Ladybug costume. He growled and stormed over to Chloé, grabbing her by the neck. "Is this a joke?!" he yelled before holding up the fabric in Chloé's face. "This is your fabric!"

"I'm not trying to trick you, I swear!" Antibug argued for her life.

"You brought me their suits!" Albedo hissed.

"But I had them, I swear!" Antibug exclaimed as she looked to the rest of the suits. "They were right here!"

"Ring-ring." Marinette's voice called out.

Albedo and Antibug both turned to the side as Marinette, Adrien and Lila appeared, as well as Alya in Lady WiFi Suit, from three mobile phones on the ground. Marinette was armed with the spare Crescent Rose, Adrien with a Fenton Bazooka and Lila with a Repulsor Arm on her hand.

Juleka came out of hiding and used her gauntlet to turn two Worms into Jaune and Gai.

Antibug heard what was going on and turned around. She growled at who she believed were the Alliance Members. "Okay, that's it! I'm mad!" she yelled angrily before slashing at all of them, only to find out they were Worms in disguise as they exploded. "What?!"

"You had us, alright." Adrien said as he placed the Fenton Bazooka on his shoulder while Tikki, Plagg and Trixx flew up next to their owners.

"Just didn't try hard enough!" Marinette yelled before she shot both Albedo and Chloé with the Crescent Rose. She looked to Alya and nodded. "Alya, now!" she called out.

"Got it!" Alya called out. She held out phone and lets several PLAY runes appear. She sent them all towards each Alliance Leader, unfreezing them all.

All of the Alliance Leaders staggered forwards, trying to regain themselves.

"What's going on?" Ruby asked. "The last thing I remember was…"

"Albedo," Marinette said as she, Adrien, Alya and Lila ran up to them. "He's back."

"How did you get us free?" Tony asked.

"You'd be surprised at what JARVIS can do." Nino said as he came in with Max and Kim. Kim had an Iron Man Suit with a bow while Max had a green version of the Hulkbuster Armor.

"No… not yet!" Albedo called out as he got up, aiming his Arm-Mounted Cannon at the Alliance.

"Not so fast!" Alix called out as she raced over in a Stark Tech Suit similar to her Timebreaker Suit. She leapt into the air and blasted Albedo to the ground. As she landed, she turned to Marinette. "The Cavalry's arrived!" she called out.

Aurore flew in with a metallic version of her Stormy Weather Uniform. "Will, Ruby, you're gonna need these." She said as she handed Will and Ruby the Heart of Kandrakar and Ruby's Scroll respectively.

"And this." Marinette added on as she handed Ruby the Crescent Rose, as well as her spare one.

Ruby grinned and wielded her spare along with her normal Crescent Rose. "Let's do this!" she said with enthusiasm.

Sabrina strolled in with the Gokai Saber and Gun. She first slashed Albedo with the Gokai Saber before shooting Chloé with the Gokai Gun. "No hard feelings," she said to Chloé sarcastically before looking to Captain Marvelous. "Marvelous, here!" she called out, tossing both weapons to the Pirate Captain.

Marvelous caught the Gokai Gun and shot down a Worm before grabbing the Gokai Saber. "Arigatou!" he called out before transforming into Gokai Red. "Do Hade Ni Ikuze!"

"You'll pay for this, Marinette!" Antibug called out as she ran at Marinette with her AntiBlade.

CLOCK UP!

Kabuto ran over and attacked Chloé, knocking her to the ground before Kamen Rider Gatack raced over and punched her to the wall.

CLOCK OVER!

"We late for the party?" Vert asked as he walked in.

Everyone looked around as the walls gave in, revealing the rest of the Battle Force 5 surrounding everyone, preventing anyone from escaping.

"We brought the new recruits." Stanford said.

Everyone arrived with their new suits, armed and ready to take on Albedo and Antibug.

"Here, you'll need this," Marinette said as she handed the broken RideSaber to Ben in Booker Mode. "Kevin couldn't get it fixed. Sorry."

"No problem," Ben said before taking out the Ride Booker in Sword Mode. "I'll manage."

At that moment, Sayo walked in. She tossed her DehemDriver at Albedo before it came back to her.

"Sayo!" Marinette exclaimed.

"I'm okay now," Sayo said. "You didn't think you'd do this without me, did you?"

"The Great Leader of Ultimate Dai-Shocker, a reverse Ladybug and some Worms," Ben said as he looked to the evil army. "I'd say your timing to even up the fight couldn't be better, Sayo."

"I will destroy you all!" Albedo called out as he placed the RideSlayer in his palm once again.

"Zak, here!" Juleka called out as she tossed the Claw to Zak.

Zak caught the Claw and swung it at Albedo, clashing with the RideSlayer before Albedo broke off with him. Vert kicked him in the back and slashed down at him, in which the Great Leader of Ultimate Dai-Shocker regained himself and locked blades with him as well.

Nino ran in and slashed his Bubble Sword at Antibug as she prepared to take down Marinette. Marinette turned around as Nino pushed Chloé away before she leapt in and kicked the fake Ladybug down.

More of the former Akumas ran in, attacking Albedo, Antibug and the Worms. Albedo managed to knock a few of them away before Kaito walked in, shooting at him with his Diendriver.

Tony punched at a Worm before jumping into the air.

"Friday, ready the Mark XLII Suit!" Tony called out.

"Acknowledged, Sir." Friday said.

At that moment, a sleek red version of the Iron Man Suit flew over to Tony, now becoming Iron Man once again.

Hawk Moth watched what was happening from a distance away. He looked as Alya flew and fired at several Worms before Alix skated through more Worms, destroying them immediately on sight.

"Such cheap imitations of my once-proud Akumas," Hawk Moth said before he communed with Chloé. "Antibug, destroy them all!"

Ben ran at Albedo and slashed at him with his Ride Booker Sword. Albedo managed to parry off every attack before Tendou and Kagami slashed him away.

"Tikki, Spots On!" Marinette called out as Tikki bashed herself into several Worms before entering the Ladybug Miraculous.

"Plagg, Claws Out!" Adrien called out as he leapt over one of Chloé's attacks.

"Trixx, Trick Start!" Lila called out as she kicked away a Worm.

Ben slashed away Albedo again before holding out his Decade Kamen Ride Card. "Henshin!" he called out.

Kaito shot at Albedo again before taking out his Card as well. "Henshin!" he called out.

Sayo and Marvelous slashed away Worms before the latter took out their Card and Key respectively.

"Henshin!" Sayo called out.

"Gokai Change!" Marvelous called out as he placed his Key into his Mobirates.

"Guardian, Unite!" Will called out as she placed the Heart of Kandrakar on her Sword of Kandrakar.

"Going Ghost!" Danny called out, spreading his arms out.

KAMEN RIDE!

DECADE!

DI-END!

DE-HEMBRA!

GOOOOOO-KKKKAAAAAIIIIGGGGEEERRRRR!

Albedo looked around him as Ben, Kaito and Sayo transformed into Kamen Riders Decade, DiEnd and Dehembra respectively. Will transformed into her Guardian Form while Danny Fenton became Danny Phantom. Marvelous aimed his Gokai Saber at him while twirling around his Gokai Gun. Vert aimed his sword at him while Marinette turned into Ladybug, Adrien into Cat Noir and Lila into Volpina, all armed and ready to take him on.

"Ten Henshin Heroes against one?" Albedo asked, swinging around the RideSlayer on his arm. "This should be interesting."

KAMEN RIDE: DARK DECADE!

Ben charged at Albedo with the Ride Booker in Sword Mode, slamming it against the evil blade. Albedo pressed against Ben before Ladybug, Kabuto and Dehembra helped Ben by pressing their own blades against Albedo. Albedo simply held up his RideSlayer Arm before forming a crystal blade on his left arm, harnessing DiamondHead's powers. He shot at Cat Noir as he ran at him, who simply sliced apart every crystal shard while Kaito strafed him down. Albedo swung aside Tendou and Sayo before Marvelous and Volpina struck down at him from behind. Albedo spun around and clashed with Ben again before his Arm-Mounted Cannon swiveled and shot at Marvelous and Volpina, only for them to be illusions as they disappeared in smoke.

"Take this!" Danny called out as he shot an Ecto-Ray at Albedo.

Albedo growled and knocked Ben away before deflecting Danny's attack. Danny gasped before Will flew in, slamming her Sword of Kandrakar down onto Albedo's RideSlayer. Albedo easily knocked Will away before Ladybug wrapped her Yo-Yo around his legs.

"Ben, now!" Ladybug called out.

Ben leapt into the air and attempted to slash Albedo down with his sword while Vert ran in and slashed Albedo from behind. Albedo kicked Vert away before knocking Ben to the side.

"Ben!" Alya called out before she and the rest of the former Akuma Victims ran at Albedo. "You're going to pay for that!"

"Oh, please." Albedo said as he walked toward the powered Parisians.

Aurore, Juleka and Rose all shot at Albedo, only for him to deflect the shots before Antibug slashed each of them away, damaging their suits. Nino ran in and slammed his Bubble Sword onto Albedo, only for him to grab it before throwing it to the side. Nino punched at Albedo, but he slashed him away before doing the same with Mireille, who tried to shoot him down with a techno version of her crystal ball. It was knocked away as she was sent to the side.

"Hey!" Nathanaël called out, getting Albedo's attention. He drew a couple of razor discs in the air before sending them at Albedo, but he sent them back, causing him to be thrown towards Juleka.

Armand ran in and kicked Albedo into the air. He leapt up and started to slash at him, the two swordsmen clashing with each other until Albedo slashed his suit apart.

"FIRE!" Max, Myléne and Ivan all called out, firing at Albedo with their Hulkbuster Suits.

Albedo turned around and accessed a new power through his Ultimatrix, causing the blasts to stop in midair. He sent forth a Dark Sonic Boom towards the three, destroying their suits as well.

Kim shot an energized arrow at Albedo while Kim Possible sent an energy blast towards him. Albedo deflected the two before Sabrina, using her cloaking technology, grabbed Albedo by the neck. Albedo turned his head around and punched Sabrina away out of her invisible mode before knocking Kim Possible and Lê Chiến Kim away.

Ruby slashed at Albedo with both of her Crescent Rose Scythes alongside Fred Haprèle, who was using a hammer. Albedo turned to them before Zak ran in, extending his Claw into a staff and slamming it onto him. Albedo caught the Claw and slashed Zak away before locking with Ruby and Fred.

"Now!" Ruby called out.

Rex, Tony and Robin all sent projectiles towards Albedo, but he slashed Ruby and Fred aside before sending another Dark Sonic Boom towards the three. They were all sent back before Roger shot at Albedo with his arm cannons alongside Jalil, Simon, Vincent and Jagged Stone.

Otis Césaire ran in with an enhanced Iron Man Suit, clawing at Albedo from behind, but he simply turned around and slashed him away before sending a tremor through the ground that knocked Roger, Jalil, Simon and Vincent away.

Alix and Theo ran at Albedo, Theo using a metallic version of the Cat Noir Suit with a metal staff. He slammed it down onto Albedo, who slashed it apart before knocking Alix out of the air, their suits damaged like the others.

"I said you're going to pay!" Alya called out, sending an endless barrage of runes towards Albedo.

Albedo grabbed a Stop Rune and sent it towards a Worm before slashing through a Pause Rune. He ran through several more, not getting affected by any of them. Alya gasped and used several Lock Runes to protect herself as Albedo got closer. She got onto a Fast-Forward Rune and flew at Albedo, but he slammed his blade at her, knocking her out of the sky. She looked up as Albedo slammed his sword onto her again. She held up her phone, managing to block the blade for a while. She continued to hold the blade until Albedo destroyed the phone completely.

"No!" Alya exclaimed.

Albedo spun around and sent Alya towards the Henshin Heroes, who were recovering from the onslaught.

"Pathetic," Albedo remarked as he looked around. He slashed to the side, taking down the entire Battle Force 5 as they tried to take him on. "I've been in a coma because of you and your Alliance, Tennyson, and you're still weaker," he said as he drew closer to Ben. "You'll always be weaker than me. An obsolete model, if you will."

Ladybug panted as she tried to get up. "You're wrong." She retorted.

"Hmm?" Albedo asked as he turned to Ladybug.

"You're the weak one." Cat Noir spat.

"Preposterous," Albedo spat back. "I am superior to this weakling in every way. How can I be weak?"

"Because they fight for what they believe in!" Alya exclaimed as she got up.

"For the safety of their friends and families!" Nino yelled.

"Even if every hero in the Multiverse fell to you, more would rise from their ashes, and if they fall even more would rise up!" Volpina spat.

Every former Akuma started to go through a shift, showing transparent versions of their former identities. They all got brave faces as they stood back up and started walking forward to Decade, DiEnd, Dehembra, Marvelous, Kabuto, Gatack, Ladybug, Cat Noir, and Volpina.

"Even those that have done wrong before can redeem themselves, even villains can be heroes." Ben spat.

Alya started to go through her own shift. "It doesn't matter how strong you are." She spat.

Nino went through his own Shift as well. "What matters is the bonds we have with others." He added on.

"I was once a selfish liar until I learned of what true heroes went through, saving everyone they can, and even when they can't they try harder to make it so no one loses what they care and love!" Volpina yelled.

"THAT IS TRUE STRENGTH!" Ben, Ladybug and Tendou all cried out as the former Akumas stood in a line behind the heroes.

Suddenly, a Card was ejected from the RideSaber Booker and glowed, as did the RideSaber itself. Ben took it out and looked to it before its blade was restored completely.

"What?" Ben asked before he found himself in a white void dimension.

"Hello, Next Decade," Iris said as she came out and walked forward. "It's nice to see that you haven't changed."

"Iris…" Ben said as he walked towards her. "Hello."

"I had a feeling you were in trouble," Iris said. "Your friend, Paradox, came to me, and explained that you were in danger. I can't stay long, but I'm here to help give you a gift… for what you did for me and LoliRock."

"The RideSaber?" Ben asked. "What did you do?"

"The Rider Lords entrusted me to give you a power called Rider Steel," Iris explained. "Its substance is stronger than anything, even something called Vibranium or Tadenite," she went on. "It is infused with the strength of every Kamen Rider and hero of the Multiverse. They wish for you to use it wisely… as do I."

Ben nodded. "I'll do my best," he said. "Thank you, Iris."

"Thank YOU, Ben," Iris said as she placed her hand on Ben's shoulder. "I hope to see you soon."

Ben snapped out of his trance. He looked to his restored RideSaber as it glowed bright.

"Impossible!" Albedo said in pure shock.

"What's this?" Ben asked as he looked to the new Card he had received. It went out of its blank state, now depicting all of the Akuma Victims.

Kaito looked to the Card before he held his hand out. "May I?" he asked.

Ben nodded before Kaito took the Card.

"Let's see if this works." Kaito said as he loaded the Card into his Diendriver.

QUANTIC RIDE: RESTORE!

Kaito aimed the Diendriver into the air, pulled the trigger. A cyan shot flew from the gun, separating and falling towards the former Akumas, hitting them and having them go through different transformations until they were restored to their former Akuma Selves.

"Ah, it would seem fate has smiled upon me," Hawk Moth said with a grin. "That foolish Rider has restored my control over those foolish people!" he exclaimed, his mask showing over his face. "Now my Akumas, attack Decade and his allies!"

Alya grinned. "Yeah…" she said as everyone looked up to see Hawk Moth looking down on them. "I don't think so."

"What?!" Hawk Moth yelled in disbelief.

"We didn't restore your control over these people," Sayo said as she gestured to the restored Akumas. "We gave them back their powers."

"And we choose to use them for good!" Alix yelled.

"So get ready!" Nino called out as he readied his restored Bubble Sword.

"I'm not afraid of you!" Albedo yelled as he and Antibug got ready to fight. "You don't scare me!"

"This might!" Ben exclaimed, taking out the Potis Altiare. "Let me show you some of my true power!" he exclaimed before placing it into the Decadriver.

ULTIMATE KAMEN RIDE: DECADE!

Ben placed his arms out in front of him as the Potis Altiare grew, giving him his armor. He spread out his arms as the Rider Cards from Kuuga to Gaim appeared on his chest before wings came onto his back. As soon as he was in his Ultimate Complete Form, he thrust his hand into the air.

"Still think we're pathetic?" Ben asked as he aimed the RideSaber at Albedo. He held his left hand into the air. "Mjölnir, to me!"

Mjölnir flew from Vision to Ben. He twirled it around and crossed it with the RideSaber proudly.

Antibug looked to Ben with shock, almost backing away and lowering her AntiBlade until Albedo smacked her in the back of the head.

"What is this?" Albedo asked, trying to regain his composure as he was still in shock.

"You didn't care for the Ultimate Rider Power," Ben spat. "Allow me to give you a taste of it!"

"We'll see!" Albedo yelled, shooting at Ben with his Arm-Mounted Cannon.

Ben selected Yang on his Omnitrix and placed it over the Potis Altiare.

ALLIANCE RIDE: EMBER CELICAS!

Ben dropped his weapons as he gained the Ember Celicas. He pulled his fists back and fired at Albedo, countering all of the blasts from his arm cannon.

"Whoa!" Ladybug exclaimed.

"You know, our odds don't look that good right now," Antibug said as she rubbed the back of her head. "Why don't we just—?"

"Let's get them!" Cat Noir said as he and Theo, now as Cat Blanc, readied their weapons.

"I'm with you!" Cat Blanc called out.

"You know it!" Nino exclaimed as he spun around his Bubble Sword.

"Too late!" Chloé squeaked.

Ben advanced toward Albedo and Antibug, holding out the RideSaber and Mjölnir to the sides.

"Get in there!" Albedo ordered Antibug.

"You're going down!" Ladybug called out as she, Alya and Volpina ran forward.

Chloé finally regained her composure and ran back at the Alliance. She slashed at Ben with her AntiBlade, only to get knocked away before locking blade with Ladybug's LadyBlade.

Albedo ran at Ben, slamming his RideSlayer against the rebuilt RideSaber. Ben pressed hard against Albedo, actually managing to push him back before slamming Mjölnir at his chest.

From the top of the base, Hawk Moth watched. "This is out of hand," he said before turning around. "I must change my plans." He said before walking away.

Kaito and Kagami both shot at Albedo and Antibug. The two managed to deflect the shots before the rest of the Alliance ran in.

At that moment, several armored men arrived. Everyone looked to them with confusion.

Each of the armored men had silver armor with black mesh. They had helmets with a single line as a visor, each glowing red. On the left sides of their shoulders were red dragon markings, as well as gold-rusted paddings on their shoulders and knees.

"What?" Zak asked.

One of the armored men took out a long sword while another took out a blaster. Half of the men took out swords as well while the other half took out their own blasters. They all advanced towards the increased Alliance, shooting at them and attacking some of the Worms.

"Who are these guys?!" Armand exclaimed as he clashed with one of the armored swordsmen.

"Everyone! Take the power of the Alliance!" Ben called out to the purified Akumas, summoning weapons to help even the odds against the unknown soldiers.

Volpina nodded as she kicked away one of the armored men. She caught the Wand of Xeris, with its blades activated, and slashed one of them away before spinning around and slamming at Antibug with her flute.

Alya gained Cyborg's Sonic Cannon and aimed it at Antibug as she was sent flying towards her. With one blast, she sent her into Ivan, who knocked her to the side.

Ben and Albedo clashed RideSaber with RideSlayer once again, letting energy disperse. Albedo kicked Ben away and attempted to shoot him with his Arm-Mounted Cannon and RideSlayer in Fusion Cannon Mode, but Ben selected Rex on his Omnitrix and scanned it over the Potis Altiare.

ALLIANCE RIDE: BLOCK PARTY!

Ben held out his arms, gaining Rex's Block Party Shields. He formed the energy shields and blocked the blasts from Albedo, managing to send some of them towards the Worms and the unknown soldiers.

"We're wit you, Ben!" Ladybug called out as she, Cat Noir, Tendou, Kaito, Sayo and Marvelous all ran towards him to help fight against Albedo.

"Oh, please," Albedo remarked as he took out the Dark K-Touch. "I have another Form too."

FINAL KAMEN RIDE: D-D-DARK DECADE!

Albedo spread out his arms as he entered his Dark Complete Form. As soon as he was in Complete Form, he pressed the Faiz Symbol.

FAIZ! KAMEN RIDE: BLASTER!

Kamen Rider Faiz in Blaster Form appeared next to Albedo. The two pressed the sides of their belts.

FINAL ATTACK RIDE: F-F-FAIZ!

Both Albedo and Kamen Rider Faiz shot their blasters at Ben and the Alliance.

Fred, now back as the Mime, took notice of the attack and leapt into action. He held up his arms as if he were holding a closed jar, aiming it towards the blast. As soon as the blast came closer, he opened the lid of the jar, containing the blast before he threw the jar at the Faiz Summon, destroying it. As soon as that was done, he mimed a Katana and rushed at Antibug, slashing away first one of the armored men before slashing at Chloé, locking blades with her as other former Akumas circled around her with the rest of the Alliance.

"Thanks, Mime!" Ladybug called out before turning to Cat Noir, who was armed with Blake's Gambol Shroud. "You ready for Round Two?"

"I'm ready to let the cat out!" Cat Noir quipped as he, Ladybug, Ben, Tendou, Marvelous, Kaito, Kagami and Sayo all aimed their weapons at Albedo.

"Don't think I'll take it easy on you." Albedo quipped as he thrust his RideSlayer Arm out to the side.

"Try us!" Ben exclaimed as he twirled the RideSaber around.

Ben and Albedo ran at each other, slamming their blades against each other. Like before, energy dispersed from the two before Cat Noir swung his Gambol Shroud at Kamen Rider Dark Decade. Albedo turned and formed a blade from his Ultimatrix arm as he broke off with Ben. He prepared to strike Cat Noir down until Ladybug leapt in and parried him away with her LadyBlade.

ALLIANCE RIDE: ADAMANTIUM CLAWS!

TRANSFERENCE RIDE: TO CAT NOIR!

Albedo pushed Ladybug back before slashing at Cat Noir, who held up Wolverine's claws on his hands and blocked his attack. Albedo looked on in shock before Cat Noir slashed him away.

"You're mine!" Sayo called out as she ran towards Albedo.

Albedo turned and held up the RideSlayer as Sayo slammed her DehemDriver Sword onto him. While he was distracted, Marvelous slashed Albedo into the air before shooting at him. As he fell, Tendou and Kagami leapt up and slashed him before Tendou pressed the Kabuto Zecter.

ONE! TWO! THREE!

"Rider Kick!" Tendou called out as he spun around.

RIDER KICK!

Albedo looked up as Tendou spun around and kicked him to the ground hard.

At the same time, Alix skated with Lie Ren's StormFlowers, shooting down Antibug before Ivan slammed her away. Myléne threw her into the air, where Max blasted her before Otis leapt at her like a puma. Ruby slashed at her with her twin Crescent Roses as Antibug landed, the two countering each others' moves before Kim and Kim Possible landed dropkicks on her.

"In that case…" Antibug started out as she took out her Yo-Yo, sending it towards Rose and Juleka.

Juleka shot at the Yo-Yo, sending it to the side, before Rose sent a blast that sent Chloé back. Nathanaël drew two discs on his pad and sent them at Antibug, knocking her into the air before Iron Man and Vision blasted her towards Armand, who slashed her away. Alya and Nino raced at her, punching her into the air as Xavier sent a flock of pigeons to keep her in the air long enough for Roger to shoot her down. As she fell, Rex and Danny slashed at her before Robin, Jalil and Mireille restrained her. Aurore flew over and sent her flying towards Albedo.

The armored men backed away as Vincent started to digitize their weapons away into oblivion. Simon took out two cards and threw them at the soldiers, causing them to disappear as well before Manon tossed two dolls of Kung Food and Santa Claws into the air. She aimed her wand at them, causing the two to slash away the soldiers before Cat Blanc used his Cataclysm to destroy more weapons while Jagged Stone rocked his guitar at them, knocking their weapons away from them. Vanisher ran and disarmed more of the unknown men of their weapons before Zak slashed them away, leaving Will and Aurore to blast them away with lightning.

"New orders," one of the armored men said as he regained his sword. "Fall back. We have what we came here for."

"All forces, pull back." Another armored soldier ordered.

All of the armored soldiers ran towards their leaders before they were taken away through a white Dimension Wall.

"Who were they?" Vert asked himself quietly as he joined up with the rest of the Alliance.

"Now, for the finale!" Ben exclaimed as he pressed the Potis Altiare.

ULTIMATE FINAL ATTACK RIDE: D-D-DECADE!

Ben flew into the air as the RideSaber lit up. He spun around and sent several of his Alliance Emblems towards Albedo and Antibug, trapping them in place before slashing down the Decade Emblem. As soon as it made impact on the two, an explosion went off, and Ben landed on the ground with his back turned to them, swinging his RideSaber to the side and placing Mjölnir on his shoulder.

"Whoo!" Alix cheered.

"Did you see that?" Nino called out. "DID YOU SEE THAT?!"

"We saw it!" Alya exclaimed excitedly.

Albedo and Antibug groaned as they got back up.

"Had enough?" Ben asked as everyone prepared to fight once again.

"Hardly Tennyson," Albedo spat before seeing the odds against him and Antibug. "But I can tell when I'm beaten," he said. "You can have this World, but the next one will be mine!" he proclaimed before he disappeared through a Silver Dimension Wall along with the rest of his forces.

"Quick!" Ladybug called out. "He's getting away!"

"Don't count on it," Ben said as he and the rest of the Riders turned, reverting back to their human forms, as did Danny and Will. "We did better," he said to everyone. "Although Albedo has returned, we, as one, managed to send him and Chloé running!"

Everyone cheered victoriously.

"JARVIS, see if anyone has any wounds." Ben ordered Vision.

Vision nodded and started to scan everyone. "Several from before they regained their powers, Sir. Ms. Dupain-Cheng and Mr. Agreste only have scratches." He reported.

"That's what I thought," Ben said before he turned to all of the purified Akumas. "We'll take you back to the Mansion to heal. You'll have a nice time to rest there."

"Wait, what happened to that mean man, Hawk Moth?" Manon asked.

"Yeah," Ladybug said as everyone looked around. "Shouldn't he have been in the battle?"

Further away from the battle, Hawk Moth was running back to his Lair.

Hawk Moth panted while he tried to run away. "Just a little further and—" he said to himself before seeing someone in his way. He stopped and stared as a Dimensional Mirror appeared in front of him. Out from it came Professor Paradox.

"Hello Hawk Moth," Paradox said. "Still an annoying spectral parasite I can see."

"Paradox, still trying to stop me," Hawk Moth mused. "Well not this time. This time I'm here to stay." He said as he smirked cruelly.

"Oh, it won't be me that gets you out this time, but rather another Rider." Paradox quipped before stepping aside. Another Silver Dimension Wall appeared behind him and out from it came a Kamen Rider with a black and orange suit, along with orange bone-shaped symbols wearing a hoodie, an eye symbol on his chest, and a helmet with a face plate that was mostly orange except for two oval shapes that resembled eyes, and a wisp-like horn on the forehead area.

"Ore wa Kamen Rider Ghost." The new Rider proclaimed.

"And what is he going to do, destroy this body?" Hawk Moth asked coldly.

"No, he will be driving you out of that body forcefully," Paradox explained before looking to Ghost. "If you're ready."

Kamen Rider Ghost nodded and turned to Hawk Moth before drawing an eye symbol in the air creating a transparent version of the symbol his chest. "Good-bye, Hawk Moth." He said before sending the symbol to Hawk Moth. As it passed through him, a purple mist started to leave Hawk Moth's body, canceling the transformation and revealing Gabriel Agreste in Hawk Moth's place with the Moth Miraculous on his tie.

Hawk Moth floated above Gabriel Agreste and growled. "Damn you Time Walker, damn you, Ghost!" he cursed before he started leaving. "Once I get a new host, all the heroes in all the Worlds will feel my wrath!" he proclaimed before floating away.

"And I will be waiting," Paradox said. "Sorry for taking up your time," he said as he turned back to Kamen Rider Ghost. "I will add an extra day to your life on the Planet to make up for this."

"Thank you," Kamen Rider Ghost said as a Dimensional Wall appeared. "If you ever need me, I will be in touch." He said before walking away.

Aboard the Dark Crisis, everyone bowed as Albedo and Antibug made their way back.

"Welcome home, Lord Albedo." Gatlocke said loyally.

Albedo nodded before turning to Kat. "How are you feeling?" he asked. "Comfortable?"

"What am I to you?" Kat asked.

"A traitor," Albedo snarled quietly. "And it will take you a long time to regain my trust."

Kat nodded and continued to bow. "As you wish." She said.

Albedo turned to Antibug, who looked down without a word. "Welcome Chloé Bourgeois—"

"Antibug." Antibug interrupted.

Albedo raised an eyebrow as he opened the Dark Decadriver, reverting back to human form. "Hmm?" he asked. "Do you truly renounce yourself of the Bourgeois Family? The very family that provided you with everything you wanted?"

"Yes!" Antibug yelled. "Chloé Bourgeois is dead! I AM ANTIBUG, NOW AND FOREVER!" she yelled before she stabbed her AntiBlade into the ground.

Albedo chuckled. "Very well then," he said. "Welcome Antibug, to Ultimate Dai-Shocker, and this extends to you as well… Hawk Moth." He said as Hawk Moth, now with a new host, came out from the shadows.

Hawk Moth grinned. "If this helps to take down Decade and his Alliance, I am willing to join you, Great Leader." He said.

"So, what now?" Antibug asked.

"This isn't the only World. There are plenty more out there," Albedo started out. "I have a special task for you, Antibug, that involves increasing our numbers. Of course, it will involve you losing your wealth and getting your hands dirty. I can understand if you don't want to hurt your precious Adrien Agreste—"

Antibug growled and angrily threw her AntiBlade at Albedo, hitting the wall behind him.

"Hmm…" Albedo said as he felt his cheek, feeling a scratch from the blade.

"Never say that name around me!" Chloé yelled. "I have no feelings for that pathetic hero!"

"And what of your feelings for Ladybug, your idol? Or your… servant, Sabrina?" Albedo questioned further on.

"When I see them, they'll wish I killed them in our World." Antibug spat.

Albedo laughed, and his laugh echoed throughout the Dark Crisis. "Well then, welcome to the Ultimate Dai-Shocker Elite Guard," she said. "Congratulations, but fail me, and you will never see Heaven, or Hell."

Antibug nodded. "Yes, Great Leader Albedo." She replied.

Back at the Kadoya Mansion, Ben was recovering with everyone else. He placed some gauze around his arm before walking towards his friends.

Ben looked to some footage of Gwen, Kevin and the Battle Force 5 helping to repair all of the damage done by Albedo. "I heard you went to great lengths to get us back," he said with a smile on his face. "Good job, guys."

Marinette and Adrien stood behind Ben with Vert. The three smiled.

"Albedo may be defeated, but if it weren't for our friends, we would have never managed to chase him and Chloé away." Marinette said.

"Marinette, I'll give you props for taking the initiative," Vert said to Marinette. "I never knew Albedo could be so strong."

"Sir, it's almost time." JARVIS told Ben through the speakers.

"I'm still gonna have to get used to that." Marinette mused.

Ben nodded. "Indeed," he said before turning back to Vert, Marinette and Adrien. "Marinette, Vert, we're about to have an Alliance Meeting, first in a new World."

"We'll wait until you're done." Marinette said respectfully.

"You didn't hear me," Ben said. "I said 'we'. You and Vert are Alliance Leaders. You're a part of this meeting too."

"What about me?" Adrien asked.

"Well, considering you two are a duo, you'll join us too," Ben said before turning his attention to JARVIS. "How are Alya and Nino holding up?"

"They are doing their best to recover, as are the rest of Ms. Dupain-Cheng and Mr. Agreste's friends." JARVIS reported.

"Make sure they rest," Ben ordered before he entered the dining room, where all of the Alliance Leaders were already seated around a large, narrow table. Ben sat down at the head of the table while Marinette, Adrien and Vert all sat down in some available seats. "I see we're all here," he said to everyone. "Do you know the reason I have gathered you on such short notice?"

"It's because Albedo has returned." Kim said.

"Correct," Ben said before turning to Marinette and Adrien. "JARVIS told me how you let everyone in the Alliance know of Albedo's return," he said, getting the two to blush shyly. "Originally, our journey into the New Worlds with the Alliance Leaders, the old companions of Tsukasa, and my team. Now, it has come to my attention that we need to call in some, but not all, of our other members of the Alliance."

"What are you saying?" Danny asked.

"We can't leave your World unprotected." Robin argued.

"We're not," Ben said. "I'm thinking we call in some of our comrades, ranging from partners to the full or some members of teams, like Team RWBY, WITCH, and the other Avengers. Some SHIELD Agents are up for consideration, but the Riders of your Worlds are not."

"I agree," Tony said with a nod. "We're going to need more help to fight against Albedo."

"And now, Chloé too." Marinette added on.

"Sounds like a good notion," Will agreed. "We can't do everything by ourselves, we see that now."

"Who we call in from my World has to be four Alliance members or under. No more, no less," Ben said to everyone. "Gwen, Kevin, Julie, and Tsukasa's comrades are already here to stay, and I'll call in Jimmy. If anyone wants to choose the members they want to call in, now's the time."

"I know that the Battle Force 5 and I can't stay long, but we'll check in every now and then." Vert said.

Ben nodded before turning to everyone else. "All Alliance Leaders, sans Marinette, Adrien and Vert, take your time and think of who you want to call in," he said. "We can't have too many, so choose wisely."

"We know we're bringing Alya and Nino, but who else?" Marinette asked.

Adrien smirked. "Why not see who's willing to go?" he suggested.

"What do you mean?" Marinette asked with an eyebrow raised.

"We tell the new heroes that we need two more people for the Alliance, and see who's willing to go." Adrien explained.

"Excellent," Ben said before turning back to the Alliance. "Any other member of the Alliance have anyone that they want to join us to help fight the good fight?"

Robin nodded and brought up the bios of all of the Teen Titans, selecting his main team. "I nominate Starfire, Beast Boy, Terra and Cyborg," he said. "Raven, Blackfire and Jinx will need to stay with Ravager and Jericho to maintain the balance with the Titans."

"Well, in that case, I choose Irma, Taranee, Cornelia and Hay Lin Kadoya," Will said as she brought up the profiles of WITCH. "We're gonna need the rest of the Guardians for this."

"Weiss, Blake, and Yang. It's been too long since Team RWBY's been apart." Ruby said.

"I choose my crew…" Marvelous said as he laced his fingers together. "All Gokaigers."

Ben nodded in agreement. "We'll have Gai in standby if we need him. I'll let it pass only this once." He said.

"I'm choosing Six, Bobo, Holiday and Circe," Rex said. "White Knight, Caesar and my Hong Kong friends can hold the fort."

"Ron, Wade, and Monique," Kim said. "Skyza and the Seraph Corps can work with Yori."

"Sam, Tucker and Jazz. My parents will need another Halfa to help around." Danny said, referring to Dani.

"I'm choosing Cap, Banner, Widow and Barton," Tony said. "We already have two people who can lift Mjölnir, and JARVIS came with the Mansion, so if he goes, I go."

"Fair enough," Ben said before turning to Zak. "What about you, Zak?"

"My family's the only team I brought with me when I joined you," Zak replied. "Aside from Fisk, I'll just call in Komodo and Zon."

"Wait, so, if we've all chosen our comrades, how will we get them here?" Vert asked.

"Something I made when I made the designs for Tower X," Ben explained as he brought up schematics of a large door. "This is the Dimensional Gateway. It will connect from the Mansion to the Plumber Base under Ed's Shop back in my World."

Marinette nodded. "So, what's our next move?" she asked.

"I'd say a ceremony is in order," Ben said. "Gather everyone. Awards are now in order."

Everyone nodded before Ben stood up. "Dismissed." He said, getting everyone to walk out.

Outside, Elena and Julie were talking with Alya.

"You did great out there," Elena said. "Good work."

"Thanks," Alya said before looking to her damaged phone. "Too bad it cost me my phone."

"We'll make it up to you," Julie said. "But that must have been an easy fight against Albedo, Antibug and some Worms only."

"There were more," Alya said. "Some armored men came out of nowhere and attacked us."

Elena and Julie looked to each other with concern before turning back to Alya.

"What did they look like?" Julie asked.

"They looked like something out of a sci-fi movie," Alya explained. "They all had dragon marks on their armor."

"Dragons?" Elena asked.

Julie looked to Alya. "Thank you for telling us," she said. "We'll look into this right away."

"Right now, you just recover." Elena said.

Alya nodded as Elena and Julie walked away.

"The message, Elena…" Julie whispered.

"I know," Elena replied. "This can't be a coincidence."

Later on, Ben had gathered everyone in the Alliance together downtown. Everyone's family had gathered as Ben walked up to the podium.

Ben looked to all of the purified Akumas. "Today, you have not only managed to hold your own against the Supreme Leader of Ultimate Dai-Shocker, but you have also proven yourselves as heroes worthy of recognition in the archives of the Kamen Riders, the Super Sentai, and all heroes alike," he told them. "For that, I tip my hat to you, and am proud to announce you all as honorary members of the Alliance of Heroes."

"Whoa!" Lila exclaimed.

"Awesome!" Kim cheered.

"This is great!" Aurore said excitedly.

Ben smiled before turning to André Bourgeois. "Mayor Bourgeois, I am sorry for the loss of your daughter." He said sympathetically.

André stood up. "I now understand the path she was led down," he said. "It was my own fault. I shall make sure to never again make the same mistake with any other child." He announced.

Ben nodded before turning back to the purified Akumas. "All Heroes who participated in the fight against Albedo, step up, and let Vision hand to you your Medals of Recognition." He said as Vision and Tony stepped up with cases of medals while Sayo walked up to hand them out.

All of the purified Akumas walked up to gain their medals. From a rooftop, four teens watched everything happen.

"Well Sparrow, looks like you were worried for nothing." One of the teens said. He had purple skin with white lightning bolt-like markings on his head.

"Hush Mercury, Master Fu was concerned, that means there is reason to worry." Sparrow said. He wore a white suit covered by a brown coat and orange goggles over his eyes.

"Well, we weren't needed, what do you think KM?" Mercury asked as he turned to a teen with a blue mask with a thick white line underneath each eye. He also wore a blue suit that was white from his neck to his shoulders with three blue dots down each side of his neck. There were also white gloves on his hands and a white line that went down each side of his body.

Kid Mime turned to Mercury and starts using sign language, saying, "Let's introduce ourselves when the Alliance leaves."

"I agree." A female teen said. She wore a jumpsuit with a white torso and black lower half. On her torso was a massive black treble clef on a staff. At the base of her jumpsuit was a series of white musical notes, which made an infinity symbol. She also had white boots and dark gray gloves on her hands. Across her face was a white mask.

"Then we will, Melody." Sparrow said.

Melody smirked. "Quantic Kids, move out." She ordered.

Sparrow chuckled playfully. "That's my line." He teased.

"Everyone we know, even Jagged Stone, is now part of the Alliance!" Marinette whispered to Adrien excitedly.

"Wonder how we're gonna fit everyone into the Mansion," Adrien mused before turning to his Father. "Wonder how my Dad's gonna take being a part of this!"

"I know for one thing that it won't be easy." Alya said. She felt her side and frowned briefly, for once not feeling her phone in her pocket.

"Now, I know that all of you are eager to take on Ultimate Dai-Shocker again, and beat them, am I right?" Ben asked everyone.

"YEAH!" everyone cheered enthusiastically.

"I can only choose a select two, I'm afraid," Ben announced, getting everyone quiet. "I don't want you to feel bad. You'll still be fighting the good fight back here, both crime and Ultimate Dai-Shocker alike, but you all have great power, power to do good in Paris," he added on, getting everyone back in a good mood. "Lila has volunteered to stay, as she will be the only Miraculous Holder left once we take off to the other Worlds, and Theo has opted to become the new Cat of Paris in place of Adrien," he went on. "To add to my team of Ladybug, Cat Noir, Madame WiFi and Bubbler Just, I only require two people, one in the field of stealth and a strategist," he explained. "I need volunteers. Remember, you all will be doing great deeds, greater than fighting Ultimate Dai-Shocker, but I only need two more volunteers. Who will join the Alliance of Heroes?"

Sabrina stepped up. "I volunteer." She said.

Ben stared at Sabrina. "We might come across Chloé again, and I can't guarantee she'll spare you." He said cautiously.

"I don't care," Sabrina said as she shook her head. "I'm not joining because I want to, I'm going to try and bring a friend back home, and if I can't, then the least I can do is stop her."

Ben nodded. "Then you're doing a good thing," he said as he smiled at Sabrina. "Now, who would like to be the last person to join the Alliance of Heroes?"

Nathanaël stepped up as everyone looked to him. "I'll go." He said.

"Nathanaël? Why?" Marinette asked.

"I can literally change reality," Nathanaël explained. "Wherever you're going, you'll need my powers."

"You sure you're not going because of your former crush on Marinette?" Ivan asked.

"I'm going… because it's the right thing to do." Nathanaël explained sternly.

Juleka nodded while she held hands with Nathanaël. "He knows what he's doing," she said. "I trust him."

Ben nodded. "Sabrina, Nathanaël, I now welcome you into the Alliance of Heroes, representing this World," he announced. "Pack your belongings and be ready to leave in two days time," he said before looking to the rest of the purified Akumas. "Give it up for your six heroes, proud and brave to venture out into the New Worlds beyond!"

Everyone in the crowd cheered.

Nathanaël turned to Juleka. "I'll miss you." He said.

"So will I." Juleka replied with a blush.

"Wait," Nino said as he turned to Ben. "Two days time?"

"We still have lots of damage to clean up." Ben explained.

"And with us, you'll get it done twice as fast." Vert added on.

"Plus…" Tony started out as he grabbed the mic. "I have large checks to hand out to everyone who did good with my tech suits and a grand donation to the Collège Françoise DuPont."

Once again, everyone cheered. Marinette's parents stood up and clapped, as did Nathalie. Even Gabriel Agreste got up and smiled, clapping for his son like the father he needed him to be.

Master Fu and Wayzz watched from a distance away. The two sent a nod of appreciation to the selected heroes before walking away. Gabriel Agreste noticed them and walked after them.

Later on, after the ceremony, Master Fu was looking at more of the Miraculouses that were in his Box. He closed it after a while before the bell on his door rung. He did not need to turn around to see who was coming in. He already knew.

"Hello, Gabriel," Master Fu said. "How are you today?"

Gabriel Agreste took a deep breath before speaking. "Hello Master Fu," he said before walking forward. "I know that you must have some questions as to why I have been acting the way I have been… so I am here to fix my mistakes, starting with the Moth Miraculous," he said, taking out the Moth Brooch and holding it out in front of him. "You can have it back," he said. "After everything that has happened, I now know that I'm not worthy of being a Miraculous Holder."

Master Fu turned around with an eyebrow raised. He walked over and held up his hand towards the Moth Miraculous. Gabriel looked up as Master Fu closed his hand. "Keep it," he said. "The Miraculouses are never wrong about who they choose."

Gabriel gasped. "What?" he asked in surprise. He did not know what to think for the moment. He looked up in shock and confusion. "But, Master Fu, I—"

"Were not in control of your actions while Hawk Moth had you under his power," Master Fu finished up. "Yes, I know," he went on. He let out a smile. "Ever since I first gave you and your wife the Moth and Peacock Miraculouses you've protected Paris just like Ladybug and Cat Noir have to this very day," he explained. "Despite what you tell yourself, in and out of control, you know that you are still a good man Gabriel. You just must not doubt yourself, no matter what."

Gabriel Agreste nodded. "Thank you Master Fu," he said before looking to the picture of his wife inside of the Brooch. "But even though I will continue to have the Moth Miraculous as you wish, I will not use it's power again," he swore. "Not since power has made me lose my way," he went on. "Nooroo has been abused to much, and she deserves her well-needed rest."

Master Fu looked up to Gabriel and chuckled. "You do this and still think you are not worthy of a Miraculous?" he asked. "My dear old friend, I finally see it."

"What?" Gabriel asked. "What is it you see?"

"I see your eyes. You are no different than when I found you before," Master Fu said. "The actions you have shown are proof of what I have been saying. You are more worthy than you know." He said with a smile once again.

Gabriel Agreste nodded. "Thank you, Master Fu," he said before turning around. He stopped before reaching the door. "I must ask you something about the Black Cat Miraculous before I leave, though."

"What is it?" Master Fu asked.

"When I was released by SimonSays, I found that my Son and Cat Noir share the same Ring," Gabriel said. "Are those two… the same?"

"If you know the truth, you will make sure that the evil of Hawk Moth does not find out," Master Fu only replied. "That is all I can tell you."

"Thank you, Master Fu," Gabriel said. "I will promise to make you proud of me once again."

"I know you will." Master Fu said as Gabriel walked out the door.

That night, at the Kadoya Mansion, Elena was at her computer. She narrowed her eyes, having copied the transmission that was sent earlier. She pressed it and played it over once again.

"Ben Tennyson, if you are listening to this message, then you have already passed through the nine new Worlds. I was hoping the day when he returned would never come… but the World needs Decade again," the recording said. "The Gold Dragon Rider has laid chaos to the Multiverse years before the existence of all other Riders. Your Alliance is the only thing that can stop him for good and save us all. He will send his troops after you until he has learned everything about you. If you are wondering who I am, you have not met me yet, but you will in all of the following Worlds that are to come. Until we meet, keep fighting, but beware the Dragon," he added on in a more ghostly tone. "Kamen Rider Decade… save us."

Elena ended the message and pulled up footage of the fight with the new troopers. She narrowed her eyes at them before pulling an image of their marks onto the screen. She closed her laptop afterwards.

At the Kadoya Mansion two days later, Marinette, Adrien, Alya and Nino all laughed as they sat on the couch.

"Can you believe it? Tony's giving the entire school almost nine-hundred thousand Euros!" Marinette exclaimed. "And we've now got Sabrina and Nathanaël on our side!"

"I have to admit, that battle with Albedo and Chloé was rough. Hard to believe we survived it." Alya mused.

"You'd be surprised what you can live through." Ben said as he walked over.

"I have a feeling that next time we face Albedo, we won't be let off so easy." Adrien pointed out.

Marinette chuckled as she got up. "Well, as long as we fight together…" she said as she grasped Mjölnir hilt and turned to Ben, unknowingly lifting it up. "We will always have some hope," she said before she held Mjölnir out to Ben. She saw everyone with shocked reactions as soon as she held it out. "What?" she asked before looking to her hand. "What?!" she exclaimed before realizing what she just did. "What?" she asked again, this time in a flat tone.

Ben smiled as he walked over. "I knew you could do it." He said knowingly.

"So, when are your friends getting here?" Alya asked.

"Soon as we get to the basement," Ben said as he led everyone downstairs. "Come on," he said before looking up. "JARVIS, how are we looking with the Gateway?"

"Activated and ready."

"I've gotta record this!" Alya exclaimed. She reached for her phone, only to realize she no longer had it. "Oh, right," she said dejectedly. "Albedo totaled it. Well, at least I have a reason to put a full Mag in his head."

"JARVIS, lock up the guns from these kids." Ben said, feeling nervous.

"I meant with an Iron Man suit." Alya corrected.

"No need to worry," JARVIS said as he walked up as Vision. He handed Alya her phone. "I have something to fix that."

"Whoa!" Alya exclaimed as she looked to her repaired phone. "I thought this was gone forever!"

"I was able to restore all of the data." Vision explained.

"I didn't think that was possible with a broken SIM Card." Alya asked.

"Tony Stark was generous enough to repair it and I was able to restore it, but that's not all," Vision started to explain. "Your phone now has a built-in MiFi Router, allowing you WiFi access everywhere you go."

"Even in the desert?!" Alya exclaimed.

"Because I configured it, yes," Vision replied as Alya started to smile with excitement. "There is even the guarantee that it can operate in space, or where technology is non-existent. I have traveled through the past Worlds to test myself," he added on. "I have also added in Vibranium, one of the many indestructible alloys. Now, everywhere you go, you and your friends have WiFi all the time."

"Thank you!" Alya exclaimed as she hugged Vision tightly.

"Gateway now activated. Selected Alliance members granted access and coming through now." Friday announced.

At that moment, the GokaiGalleon flew through, alongside GoZyuDrill. The Gokaigers and the Teen Titans looked down and smiled to everyone, in which the new recruits smiles back. Weiss, Blake and Yang came through as well, causing Ruby to run up and hug them just as Team Possible came through. Kim ran up and kissed Ron before two Quinjets flew in. Iron Man flew up and saluted the Avengers, in which they saluted back before the rest of WITCH flew through.

"We've got the band back together!" Irma cheered as she slid through on an ice slide.

"I'm ready to light it up!" Taranee quipped.

"I hear Albedo's back," Cornelia said with a grin. "He's gonna wish he was dead all along." She spat while twirling around her staff.

Hay Lin flew through in a tornado. She landed in front of Will with the rest of WITCH. "Great to see you again, Will." She said.

"Guardians United." Will said as she shook hands with her friends.

Out of the Quinjets and the GokaiGalleon came Komodo, Don, Six, Bobo, Dr. Holiday and Circe came out. Rex walked up and kissed Circe while Zak greeted his friends.

"You guys ready to take on Albedo again?" Danny asked as Sam, Tucker and Jazz came through.

"Win or lose… we fight together." Tucker said as he and Danny shook hands.

"We're with you all the way." Sam added on.

"Well, everyone's here," Nathanaël said as Sabrina nodded. "And Paris now has its heroes."

"I have a feeling there are more," Ben said as he saw the Quantic Kids looking down. He sent them a salute before they went off and turned back, showing everyone a picture he had taken of Marinette, Adrien and Tendou with Ladybug, Cat Noir and Kabuto overlaying them. "Now, let's get to the next World."

Tikki flew out and looked to the backdrop. "This is cool." She mused.

"How come I noticed this just now?" Marinette asked as everyone else came up.

"How about some cookies?" Eijiro asked as he came over. "Ladybug cookies, everyone!"

"Ooh, yummy!" Sabrina said with excitement.

"I missed these!" Jazz said.

Everyone came over and picked up cookies. Natsumi smiled at Ben, as did Sayo.

All of a sudden, Kivaala flew over towards Plagg.

"Get away from me, you metal vampire!" Plagg called out as he flew away.

"Kivaala Tackle!" Kivaala called out, tackling into Plagg. "I just want a hug."

Everyone laughed as Plagg and Kivaala got tangled in the chains. The backdrop fell, revealing a Yin-Yang Symbol with a dragon and a tiger.

"A new World…" Ben said as he looked to the picture of the Tai Chi Chasers. "And some old friends."

In the new World, aboard the Tigeroid Airship, Rai and Sena both noticed the Wei Tai Chi Cards glowing.

"Ben?"

Later on, the armored men came back. Waiting for them was a someone in the shadows.

"Report."

"We have found Decade," a soldier said. "But it is not Tsukasa Kadoya."

"Then this new Decade will feel my vengeance," the shadowy figure said. His eyes glowed bright. "The entire Multiverse… will fall."
