Heading to where he (Viperon) last left Ladybug and ChatNoir; he heard cries of a child. 'What did they get themselves into?' he asked himself. 'And where did the child come from? Only three were in the building. Could it be one of them?' He began to panic wondering if this was Emma's reaction to Marinette forgetting her.

Right before Viperon could take action someone grabbed the lyre attached to his hip.

"I caught you." A small voice said startling Viperon.

"I told you Pokémon were real." Emma said to Kurt who was just blindly following Emma around. Her mother used to tell her stories about her adventures and the ones with the different Miraculous holders were some of her favorites.

Kurt looked at Viperon and said "But he's not an Eeve."

"But he is a Viperon." Emma added feeling proud of herself that she was so clever. Perhaps, she would repeat this conversation to ChatNoir if she could find him and if he wasn't busy. She looked around for a moment. "Where did he go?" Emma asked as she looked at the other end of the cane that she was holding then to Kurt who shrugged as he held two bags of treats.

"You mean Erza?" Viperon asked sighing in relief that at least Emma was okay. Ignoring the items that the children have picked up along the way.

"I know where he is. Do you hear that crying sound? That's him. I told him to stay put and he didn't. Not my fault he didn't listen." She explained.

This caused more questions to run through Viperon's head. "Is there another kid lost?" He asked.

"What? No." Emma quickly replied knowing that Viperon would not approve of her newfound friend. When they found this friend they were looting a cafe of their baked goods. 'Recovery' as Emma and Kurt preferred to call it.

Emma had needed to go to the bathroom. She had seen some on her way over. She decided that she could go on her own. After all, she was ten and she didn't need bathroom buddy anymore. She found the bathrooms and went into one without looking at the signs. She ended up going into the men's room. She didn't care. She just needed to pee. Emma preceded to going into a stall ignoring the few urinals she passed by.

She sung a little tune since she was the only one in the bathroom. She flushed and was ready to leave the stall, wash her hands, and be on her way. However, she heard foot steps. They sounded like an adults. She wasn't sure if she ran into the men's or women's bathroom. If it was the women's then she was in the clear but the men's? Maybe?

Instead of risking it she waited patiently. She then heard the person start to talk to himself. At this moment she realized she must've ran into the wrong bathroom. She looked through the small crack in the stall door to confirm that she was stuck.

Emma couldn't believe who she saw. It was Hawkmoth. 'HAWKMOTH!' She internally squealed. She no longer needed an escape plan. This was her chance to prove she was Miraculous material by taking down Hawkmoth without one.

Hawkmoth turned on the sink and splashed his face. "What is wrong with me?" He ask himself. "Am I just a bad person? Everything was fine. But, I still was not happy. I don't think I'll ever be happy without you by my side. If that makes me a bad father? Fine. Fine... Fine." In Emma's eyes he looked sad. Sadder then her when someone takes her food. She didn't know that type of ultra mega sad was achievable.

"Does a conscious normally come with granddaughters?" He asked Emilie, who was still in a coma but talking to her made him feel like he was making the right decisions or so he thought. He was rethinking this whole villain thing. Thinking that he should retract his Akuma but he was so close. The closest he's ever been. "I even convinced Adrien that he could get his Ladybug back if he sided with us. Father like son. The Agrestes will do anything for the women they love. Is this our family curse? I hope not." He turned off the faucet knowing that he had to get back to the mess he made.

"WAIT!" Emma said opening the door.

"EMMA?!" He yelled startled at her appearance.

"One thing at a time. I got to wash my hands." She said as she preceded to the sink.

"You're a bad person. That's what mommy says. And I'm going to defeat you. One day. Not today. You're having a bad day and mommy also said "don't hit a person while they're down." She was talking about video games but I think it works here too."

"I don't need this from ten year old who walked into the wrong bathroom." He told Emma. Not knowing if she made the connection that he is Gabriel Agreste yet.

"I think you do. And I also think you need a friend because being alone is sad." She dried of her hands enjoying the vacuum sounds the hand dryer made. "SWEET HONEY ICE TEA!" She yelled realizing she left Erza in the closet. Alone. "I got to go do something but, we're friends now. Okay." She said before leaving the bathroom.

She needed to get Kurt and some pastries first then get Erza and then defeat... She wasn't sure that she could defeat Hawkmoth anymore. They were friends now.

Friends don't hurt friends but Emma wanted to be the next ChatNoir. Maybe, she could solve this with friendship? If she learned anything from watching my little pony it would be that friendship is magic. This was in the title of the show so how could it be wrong?

"You do know you were doing your villain talky thingy all wrong." Emma said as she gathered sweets from the glass cabinet of the Café containing the pastries.

"It is called a villain monologue and to be fair I did not expect to be eavesdropped in a building that was supposed to be evacuated and lectured by a little kid who is playing pretend and contracting her morals by stealing food." He replied.

She stuck her tongue out and added "That was a run on sentence so, bite me, Butterfly boy." As she finished looting the food with Kurt.

"You need to learn respect."

"And you need to learn to be nicer." She said as she grabbed one end of Hawkmoth's cane while he held the other as she pulled him in whatever direction she desired. Hawkmoth went along with Emma's little game. Going up and down hallways. "Sheis looking for something. Quite possibly something to defeat me." Hawkmoth thought but he believed he could take on two little kids if push came to shove.

The sound of a child crying shocked Hawkmoth causing him to let go of the cane. Hawkmoth sat back and listened to the conversation between Emma and Viperon.

"See this is my friend's cane. Or enemy? Frenemy? I don't know what to call him but he's like really really really really old." Emma explain.

"Like Dinosaur old." Kurt added.

Hawkmoth mumbled "I hate children." Then realized if he hated them so much then why was he hiding? Well it was obvious he didn't want them to get hurt well at least not Emma. He Akumatized a baby and threw his son off a skyscraper and THIS is the line he doesn't want to cross?

All the redeeming qualities that Hawkmoth seemed to possess were thrown out the window we he decided to make himself seen by Viperon. "Run!" Viperon yelled staying to defend and defeat Hawkmoth. Kurt and Emma looked at each other and shrugged before skipping away.

The two children followed trail of tears and ended with the de-transformed version of Paris's greatest heroes. "Mommy and Daddy?" Emma questioned. Still enjoying claiming Adrien as her second dad and confused on why Adrien and her mother would cause Ezra to cry. Ezra latched on to Emma's hand not wanted to loose her again.

Marinette was dressed in a shirt that obviously belonged to a man. She looked as if she hurried to cover herself with the closest item of clothing. Meanwhile her partner was half dressed. "Why do you have daddy's shirt on?" Emma asked.

Before either Marinette or Adrien could respond Kurt had the answer covered.

"They had sex. My mommy and daddy do that sometimes too." Kurt said as he munched on some more pastries in the bags.

"Ewww... " Emma said. "That's gross." She didn't exactly know what sex was but she knew it involved two consenting adults that were naked and that's all she needed to know to determine that she never wanted to do it or have it.

"Grosser then boogers and farts." Kurt added.

"Grosser then Hawkmoth's cattiude." She stated.

"Hawkmoth who's he?" Marinette questioned knowing that name sounded familiar but she didn't know why. Maybe it was some type of toothpaste brand or a title of a recipe?

"He's the biggest meanie in the whole wide world. But we friends now, I think."

Emma added as she used the cane to exaggerate her hand motions.

"Why is he a big meanie? Can you tell Daddy and me to refresh our memories?"

Marinette ask. Emma couldn't pass up an opportunity to explain everything.

"Well, Hawkmoth wants a ring and earrings of ChatNoir and Ladybug. He wants to look pretty I guess. He also makes more bad guys to do the work for him cause he's lazy. Ladybug, which is you mommy and I don't know who ChatNoir is. But he's got a kitty named Plagg and you've got a red floaty thing called Tikki. She's a bossy babysitter. She wouldn't let me stick a fork in a outlet or eat cat food. To become a cat, one must be a cat. Like ChatNoir he says "Plagg claws out" and he's a cat. Why can't I do... "

Emma saw the two Kwamis. She pointed to each one with the cane. "That's Tikki and That's Plagg! That mean ChatNoir is somewhere!" She said excited to meet her idol.

"You do know your Daddy is ChatNoir right?" Marinette said confused on why she and 'her husband' didn't reveal that the two men were one in the same.

"ChatNoir's my daddy? Then what was the bank for?" Emma asked.

"What bank?" Adrien asked trying to follow the conversation.

"I told you the one to make a baby. Because mommy is married."

"I know she married. I'm her husband." Adrien said confused.

"No, you're not. I call you daddy but you're not really my daddy. I just like to pretend. Papa is my daddy. He's fighting Hawkmoth and I think I might've eaten a bug at some point today. Or was that yesterday?"

"We need to help him and you take us to him?" Marinette asked. She thought skipping past all the explaining would be the best decision.

"I can't. Not when you are like this." Emma said.

"Yeah, that's seems like bad idea although I could probably get away with it." Adrien stated pointing out to how him and Marinette weren't properly dressed.

"You got to say "Claws Out"and mom you say "Spots On". It's not as cool as Serena's transformation but it's pretty cool. Then guys can go fight the bad guy." Emma explained.

"Do we have too go? It's scary." Ezra said. He was already traumatized enough.

"Yes we do. It's scary but I'll be your hero. I'll be your ChatNoir." She said as she grabbed his hand swearing to never let go again.

"Hey, he's mine and I thought you like girls." Kurt said as he grabbed Ezra's other hand.

"He's just a friend, jeez." Emma stated.

The three children lead the transformed heroes to Omission passing the spot where Emma left Viperon and Hawkmoth. The group can e upon a scene of Volphina attempting to fend off Omission while Viperon fought Hawkmoth. Carapace was battling Mayura, the peacock themed hero, who usually chose not to engage in hand to hand combat.

"ARE YOU CRAZY?" Volphina yelled. "BRINGING HIM HERE!" Of course Ladybug and ChatNoir would do something as irresponsible as bring the target of the villain to the villain.

"Come here little one." Omission said and he shoved Volphina away.

"YOU TOUCH HIM ILL BITE YOU!" Emma yelled. "Ladybug say "Lucky Charm."

"Lucky Charm?" Ladybug said but nothing happened.

"I think you have to say it like this." ChatNoir said. For a person that forgot his own name he perfectly copied Ladybug's Lucky Charm sequence. "Lucky Charm!"

"Never do that again." Ladybug said before mimicing ChatNoir's previous movements.

"Lucky Charm!"

Emma was ecstatic to see what random object that the Miraculous would provide. To her disappointment it was a chair almost the exact chair she had earlier except it was red with black polka dots. "Really?!"

Omission aimed for Ezra and Emma let go of Ezra's hand to grab the chair from Ladybug to use it to deflect Omission's blast. ChatNoir took his baton and tried to distract Omission while Ladybug threw her yo-yo only too miss.

Hawkmoth without thinking of his big picture tripped Viperon with his cane and recalled the Akuma. He realized that perhaps Emna was the key. To what exactly he didn't know but the fact she reacted quickly meant that she was born to be a hero. And that fact could work to his favor.

Mayura and Hawkmoth retreated into the shadows. Volphina immediately ran to Ezra and hugged him. She was so worried but was so happy that he was safe that she was brought to tears.

"Get off me strange women!" Ezra yelled panicking to get to Emma.

Emma tapped Volphina's shoulder. "I don't know who you are but that's making him unhappy and I just defeated a villain and I'll beat you up too."

Volpina detransformed and once Ezra saw that she was indeed his mother he balled his little heart out. "You were such a brave boy. Mommy's sorry that you had to go through this."

Emma backed away from the mother son moment. She did not know what to do when things got super emotional. She was going to walk over to Viperon but she passed the chair. Irritated by the fact that Hawkmoth retracted the Akuma and that she wasn't aware that was something a person could do. She kicked the chair in defeat. "Stupid chair. Stupid Chair."

To cheer Emma up and prevent her from taking her frustrations out on the innocent chair; ChatNoir asked her "What happens after we defeat the bad guy?"

"You do this." Emma said as she show ChatNoir how to dab.

"Like this?" ChatNoir asked as he performed the once popular stance. Ending the pose on one knee making him closer to Emma's height.

"PURR- fect!" Emma clapped before she hugged him "I know you need to go back but it was fun having you as a daddy even if it was just for a day."

"You're the best not-daughter I could ever ask for. Whoever your dad is he would be super proud of you."

"You ready?" Carapace asked, letting them get their goodbyes before turning everything to normal or at least explaining how to do that.

"Your favorite hero needs me so I'll have to let go." ChatNoir said assuming that Carapace was her favorite hero since that's who she was dressed up as.

"But you're my favorite hero." She said as she got one great big hug in before letting go.

ChatNoir didn't know why he didn't want to go make and thought about keeping things like this but it wasn't fair. Carapace patted ChatNoir on the back to reassure him that this was the right or so ChatNoir thought.

"I will never understand you. If you love this woman, go get her. What are you waiting for?" Carapace said knowing very well that neither Ladybug or ChatNoir would remember this. Even know Viperon wouldn't ever forgive him for coaxing ChatNoir; in Carapace's eyes it wouldn't hurt them to have a false sense of happiness.

"I'll see you on the other side of this." She said after throwing her charm up and yelling the two magical words.

"I'll see you on the other side this." ChatNoir repeated before kissing his Lady as the magical aura from Ladybug's lucky charm fixed everything. Or at least turn things from a romantic fantasy back to the cold hard reality.

Both ChatNoir and Ladybug pushed each other away realizing that this wasn't right. Ladybug looks at Viperon who was trying to wrangle the three kids. He knew what had happened and knew that Marinette and him would need to discuss their relationship. They couldn't postpone the inevitable.

ChatNoir cursed at himself. He just replaced Ladybug as if she was his dead pet. Calling her Ladybug didn't make her his Ladybug. Was this the destiny of being a hero just to be replaced over and over again. Of course it was. Plagg explained it.

Beep, Beep, Beep the sound of ChatNoir's curtain call.

"I am so sorry." He said before leaving the scene.

That apology meant different things to different people. To Ladybug, he was apologizing for that night causing her to think that he found the connection between Marinette and her. To Luka, he was apologizing for taking advantage of Marinette yet again causing him to think that ChatNoir didn't lose his memory. To ChatNoir that apologize was for his Ladybug. A short version of what he really wanted to say "I am sorry I didn't cherish you. I am sorry I cheated on you. I am sorry for replacing you. Above all I am sorry I wasn't there for you."

Gabriel rushed out of the back changing rooms attacking as if he hid the entire time. He looked around noticing the faces of the heroes and the absences of ChatNoir. He must of missed a melodramatic exit from his son. He thought.

Emma did not know what to do now that the villain was defeated or the awkward tension in the room. She preceded to ask the nearest person. "What comes next?" Gabriel froze at her question.
