I'm sorry for not posting yesterday but here is the update. I think there will be one more part after this. Unfortunately, after I finish this next request I will probably have to stop updating as often if at all. I might still post once a week if possible but I'm starting school again in a little more than a week or so. I'll try my best but we'll just have to see. I hope you enjoy this one!

The villain squinted up at the building where Ladybug was whirling her yo-yos. "Who is that? I can't see…"

"You're in big trouble now," Chat chuckled to himself.

"This is over catastrophe! Get your hands off my kitty!" Ladybug yelled as she threw the yo-yo in the akumatized villain's direction. Chat looked surprised at her, "My kitty?!" Hearts basically formed in his eyes.

Ah, crud. Not again. The villain knew she had been tricked again as the string came twisting around her body. She shook Chat like a ragdoll as she tried to avoid it. She struggled to hold him tight by the scruff with her free arm as she was restrained.

"That wasn't a smart move Ladybug! I still got a hold of your precious Chat Noir. Chat angrily hissed as she pulled him closer to her maw. "Come to think of it, all I really need is your ring. Right? Why don't I just gnaw it off?" She hissed as he tried to avoid her fangs.

"Whoa, whoa, are you crazy?!" He threw his paws wildly.

"You'll live," she chuckled.

"That doesn't make it any better!" He cried out. He squeezed his eyes shut as the fangs drew nearer.

"Hate to break it to you, but that won't be necessary!" Ladybug threw her second yo-yo aimed right for the villain's head.

"I don't want to be cat chow…" Kitty Noir cried in her grasp, not noticing his partner's aid.

"Another one?!" Catastrophe blanched. It zipped around her head. "W-wait what are yo-" the string clamped down, effectively silencing her. She released Chat to try and pull the string off her face.

He landed on his feet and turned around, fur standing on end. The bell on her wrist jingled and he set his eyes on it. "Target acqui-purred!" He leaped up at her, cataclysm at the ready. She noticed him and raised her arm in an attempt to shoo him away. He landed right on the bell, slicing it open with his claws. The akuma fluttered out and she watched it go.

Darkness enveloped her as the transformation and powers wore off. Ladybug retracted her weapons only to see a girl left in the villain's place. She wore an oversized paw print sweater with large glasses. She looked around confused.

Ladybug caught her dual yo-yos and clicked them back together. "No more evil doing for you little akuma," she looked up at it as it attempted to fly away, looking for its next victim. She opened her yo-yo, tossing it up into the sky. "Time to de-evilize!"

She caught the butterfly, the yo-yo closing around it as she snapped it back into her hands. "Gotcha." She casually pressed a button and the newly cleansed butterfly left. "Bye bye little butterfly." She threw the flour into the air, cheering, "Miraculous Ladybug!"

Magical butterflies rushed to fix everything. They headed towards Chat. "Here they come!" He smiled excitedly. They enveloped him and swirled all around. His paws turned to hands as they left as soon as they came.

He stared up at his hands with a goofy grin, "I'm back!' He squeezed his hands into a fist. "Ah, it feels so good to have opposable thumbs again."

Ladybug jumped down from the building, landing next to the tomcat. "Hey, bugaboo!" He pulled her into a quick hug, squeezing her tightly. She stood frozen for a moment, surprised at his cuddliness. "Thank you so much for bringing me back!"

She chuckled and patted his back, hugging him. "Awww, what's the matter? Did you not enjoy your time as a cute little furball?"

He pulled away with a fake sob, crying into his elbow. "Not one bit! I felt so… small and useless. The only thing I was good for was the terrible cat puns." Ladybug sighed as she knew he genuinely felt bad. "I'm sorry for having messed up so ba-"

Ladybug rested a hand on his shoulder. "Hey!" She pointed her finger in his face, surprising him. "Don't ever underestimate your value as a if you were a cat, without you, I wouldn't have been able to de-evilize Catastrophe. We're a team Chat Noir. Whether you're a cat, a banana, or a human. I need you!" She huffed out. He gave a watery smile.

"Thank you Ladybug."

"Don't mention it," they fist bumped.

"Pound it!" They said in unison before turning to the girl.

"Now…."
