The tip of an umbrella, in the hand of a person clad in white and cyan was aimed at a small portal, a portal so small it would have gone unnoticed, but if it was allowed to grow…well, we'll never have to find that one out again. A beam came from the umbrella tip and aimed at the tiny portal, and it vanished. "Well, that's another small anomaly taken care of…shouldn't we be going after the bigger ones yet?" She asked as she spoke into her watch.
The watch just glowed for a bit. "I know the heroes are capable, but to let them deal with these?" another glow. "It's not their fault that Kwami Hunter forced their hand, this timeline's bunny wielder is going to blame herself bigtime for this." Another glow. "You sure that this will benefit this timeline in the long run?" Another glow. "Oh, I see…I get it but I hate it when I can't help in my full capacity." And yet another glow. "Oh, don't be so harsh. I know these are rules are not meant to be broken, but how about a little bending?"
A series of short glows, like flickers occurred. "No, I won't bend them so hard they'll snap back in my face. I learned that lesson a long ago. It has been centuries, you can let me forget that one, do you?" More flickers. "Do I need to bring up the carrot cake incident?" No more glows came. "Thought so. Now, I'll thread carefully. You know that even the most experienced wielder started of green once and a Bunny wielder whom has not created at least a small anomaly hasn't happened yet. You know that anomalies can always happen even without us."
There was no glow before a series of flickers came up again. "I'm touched you worry so much, but I have been going at this for…a lot longer than I care to count, or even am capable of counting. We'll be fine, I promise. When hasn't the team that consist of us fail to deal with something?" A short burst of light. "Me too, buddy. Now, since that small anomaly is dealt with, let's blend in and wait for the next chain of events." She said as she muttered: "Fluff, Counter-Clockwise!"
The person shifted from the blue and white bodysuit to her casual sportive and punkish outfit. A hand, connected to an arm covered in cool tattoos went to her head and ran through her spiky red hair. A bunny kwami, just like the one our Bunnyx had floated at her side. "Let's go, Fluff."
"Where do these things keep coming from?" Queen Bee roared in frustration as they fought the monster of the week. "And whom even thought of something like that?" she pointed at what they were fighting which was a large gorilla creature…with banana features.
"I dunno, but the Magical Menagerie App doesn't recognize it." Rena rouge noted as she dodges a banana the creature throws and it turned the car it hit instead into a banana. "And I doubt evolution would work in such a way a giant gorilla creature does that! I mean in real life gorillas don't eat bananas!"
"That's not even the weirdest part. I feel something familiar about this creature." Ladybug said as she deflected more exploding bananas with her yo-yo. She sported her wings and flew up in the air to join Queen Bee.
"I have been sensing it too…is it a byproduct of Miraculous magic? It is familiar, yet foreign somehow." Chat said as he activated the acid tips on his staff and impaled a banana aimed at him, dispersing it in a cloud of green acid-colored smoke.
"I don't know, all I know it is a weird big bad ape and the longer we fight it, the more I get a craving for banana muffins." Carapace noted as he blocked a punch of the giant creature with his shield, stumbling back as the beast waved its hand in pain.
"And he's not the only creature that has shown up." Ladybug said as she looked to see some messages on her yo-yo about how the other groups dealt with weird creatures that had been appearing.
First whom appeared on screen was Petit Souris. "Hi, LB. My team is currently tussling with a weird creature…That is made out of lollipops. We don't know where it came from. The other teams say they came across strange creatures as well."
In the background, Porcelet was sent flying, but she hooked her rake across a lantern pole and swung around to go back into the fight. She saw a lollipop-shaped foot trying to crush Viperion under his foot, as he couldn't stand still long enough to play his lyre. Taurus came in and caught the foot, using his strength against the creature to hold it off. "Petit Souris, you nearly done relaying the message? For an oversized piece of sugar it packs a wallop!" Tigresse called in the background.
"Nearly done, Tig." Petit Souris said. She turned back to Ladybug. "We'll keep you up to date."
Ladybug shifted to another message. It was Antimena. "Er…hi? We kind of are fighting a big butterfly right now…" the chameleon hero said shyly. "I know you and the others have your own problems but pretty please…If you are done with yours, please come to us as quickly as you can?"
In the background Ryuko was…well, by lack of a better term, fencing. Her sword clashed with the stinger (even though butterflies are not supposed to have them) of the giant butterfly creature. The sound of 'LEEEEROOOOOOOOYY!" went on in the background as Pipistrello flew in as the moth dodged her hammer strike and knocked her into a billboard with his wing. "My mouth tastes of pain…and billboard!" Pipistrello said, sounding a bit dazed. Then Laika jumped onto its back and bit down as a pit-bull as the creature roared in pain and tried to shake it off.
"Ok, I said it so…going to help the others now." Antimena said as she turned invisible, and ended the message.
A final message came in. It was Bunnyx answering it. "Hi guys. Now, I am receiving messages from the rest, these weird creatures. They also make Fluff rather uneasy, which means that these creatures are displaced from time or space, or something. I have to ask her more details later. Anyhow, we are dealing with one of them now…"
"I got him!" Roi Singe was ready to throw his Uproar item, a panda plushie, at the giant evil eye-like creature that they faced. But the creature turned around, white light shining from his eyes, and Roi Singe stood paralyzed. "He got me…" he said, his mouth being the only thing not frozen. Which in Bunnyx' opinion is the worst thing the evil eye could have left unfrozen.
"Oh no you won't!" Pegasus rushed up, kicked the eye in the side, whom turned around and let Roi Singe go, and tried to stun the Horse Wielder but he was too fast.
"We have to draw up something that blocks his gaze." Pan said to his boyfriend.
"I know, give me time to think." Kempfhahn said as he tried to think.
"But they could use my help, I was just letting you know. Bunnyx out!" the bunny hero said.
Ladybug sighed. "The others are facing similar problems and aside the giant butterfly with the stinger, the things they face are just as odd as the thing we face."
"The more reason to put Banana Boom-Boom down as fast as we can!" Queen Bee said. Everyone looked oddly at her. "What? He looks like a 'Banana Boom-Boom!' And we have fought Akuma with weirder names."
"Let's just take him down. Lucky Charm!" Ladybug said as she generated…an entire moped. "What the heck?" she said as she tried to catch it but was nearly crushed by it (though her ladybug strength would have protected her) "It was never that big before."
"And even more so, your spots are glowing." Chat noted.
Ladybug looked down as the black spots were now white and lighting up. "Holy…never mind. That can wait." She checked through the moped, seeing there was a repair kit with a wrench and a screwdriver included. "I got it, ok, so this is the plan…" she said as she whispers her plan to the other heroes.
The giant banana Gorilla (not calling it by Chloé's nickname). "Hey, you overgrown banana split!" Chat voice sounded as the creature was socked in the forehead by a flying wrench. "I am putting a monkey wrench in your works."
The gorilla roared as it tried to throw his banana bombs at Chat. In a puff of purple smoke, it seemed he had succeeded and all that was left of the hero was a simple, plain banana. The creature roared as he beat his chest in triumph. "Psyche!" a voice shouted; the gorilla was confused as the banana dissolved in orange smoke. He then saw something orange and white shoot at him, and hit him in the face.
He stumbled back, as he suddenly tripped, courtesy of Queen Bee's trompo. He landed on the ground with a thud. "Shellter!" "Cataclysm!" Chat's hand touched the ground, breaking down the molecular structure of the pavement around the gorilla creature to turn into quicksand, while Carapace created four smaller forcefields around the limbs of the creature, pinning him into place.
Ladybug was on the rooftop, the screwdriver loaded into the string of her yo-yo, which she had stretched in a makeshift bow. She shot it out, and it pierced one of the banana bombs on the creature's chest, detonating it and all that was left of the huge creature was an average banana.
Chat picked it up and tossed it up and down in his hand. "So…what are we going to do with this? Make a smoothie?"
"I think we need to put it somewhere to where it won't do any harm as soon as my Miraculous Ladybug turns the things he bananafied back." Ladybug said. "And figure out how I am going to throw this entire moped in the air to activate it."
"Er, your spots are still glowing." Rena pointed out.
"That's not the only thing that's glowing. Chat, your suit!" Carapace pointed at Chat.
Chat looked down and saw a few glowing green outlines on his suit. "Crap in a basket!" he gasped.
"Er, I think you all have something going on…" Ladybug noted.
Carapace took his shield of his back, and some of the turtle patterns glowed, and so did Queen Bee's stripes, whom was checking herself out. Rena saw a bluish white flame coming out from one tip of her flute. "Gah!" she said as she thought it was on fire. After looking at it, she reached out with her hand. It went through the flame no problem. "What type of flame is this? It doesn't burn."
"We are not sick, are we?" Queen bee asked. "That, and the white glow upsets the black and yellow color balance I had going on."
"I feel fine. Physically I mean…I just don't know what this glow is about. Sure, we have been training, and I tinkered with a few tricks Marianne taught me…" Ladybug said.
"Doesn't explain the rest of us, exactly." Carapace said as he kept studying his glowing shield.
"Hey guys!" a voice said. With a huge thud an unconscious, oversized butterfly was dropped next to them. They looked up to see a crane, and judging from the color scheme and the various decoration displaying several comic book and tv heroes he and his boyfriend were fond of, this one was whipped up by Kempfhahn. "We booked this bug!"
"Oh, glowy!" Pipistrello said as she moved closer to Ladybug, seemingly entranced and reaching out her hand to touch the glowing spots. Ladybug made her back off with a glance.
"The others messaged me, they should be here with the beasts they defeated." Antimena noted.
At that point Roi Singe came rolling in. Literally. The giant eyeball creature, though his pupil now a anime-esque swirl and clearly knocked out, was rolled down the street with Roi Singe on top, and he was belting out circus music. He stopped the rolling eyeball in his track and jumped off. "Hey look what 'eye' got…"
"Your puns are worse than Chat's." Ladybug said dryly.
"She still loves it when they come from me." Chat said, puffing up his chest.
"So, all that remains is the KS group. They should be joining us soon." Bunnyx noted. 'KS group' is the nickname for the group of teammates that are part of Kitty Section, as well as Mylene due to being around Ivan all the time.
They arrived, thought without any visible cargo. Only thing of note was Porcelet looking more wide-eyed and smiling harder than usual. She was also vibrating for some reason. "Hi guys…er, where is the monster you fought?" Rena asked.
Porcelet responded by spitting out the giant lollipop monster. Only all that was left of it were a few lollipop sticks without its sugary treat on top. "Well, that explains why she looks so hyper…she has consumed a crap-ton of magical sugar."
"I can see through my hand, the world is pink!" Porcelet said excitedly. "I love pink! I love all of you guys. Most of all my sexy girlfriend Tigresse!" she continued as she hugged her girlfriend really, really tightly. Tigresse blushed.
"Yeah…hopefully that will be fixed by the Miraculous Ladybug too." Ladybug noted. She took the banana that was formerly the banana gorilla thing and threw it on the pile of unconscious monsters and lollipop sticks.
People looked confused at that banana. "It was the monster. He turned everything in a banana. We turned his powers against him."
"Our lives are weird." Ryuko replied bluntly. She was not wrong.
"So, Bunnyx…you said there was something off about them, have you figured out what yet?" Ladybug asked.
"Yeah, their quantum signature…" Bunnyx said as she checked her Miraculous, which scanned the beings. She took a break when there were a few confused glares. "It is like this aura that shows what time or dimension you are from…" They nodded in understanding. "…shows they are not from our time and universe. I have isolated an energy signature that is familiar but it was a bit difficult because of extradimensional stuff screwing a bit with it…"
"Is this leading somewhere?" Roi Singe asked.
"Ah, I think I got it…Oh, they are Sentimonsters. Extradimensional Sentimonsters." Bunnyx said as she continued to check.
"These are Sentimonsters?" Chat asked as he looked at them. "What type of person would even create such silly things?"
"An alternate Hawkmoth whom also used the Peacock Miraculous alongside the Butterfly?" a familiar voice sounded.
"It would explain a lot because Hawkmoth's designs could be weird. But how did you make that guess Bunnyx?" Ladybug noted.
"I didn't say anything." Bunnyx said.
"Not your Bunnyx, but A Bunnyx!" the same voice sounded. A portal opened in front of them and out of it stepped another Bunnyx. Only she was older than their Bunnyx. "'Sup?" she greeted.
"HOLY SHIT!" Roi Singe said.
"That seemed to be Monkey King's default reaction back then. Ah the good ol' days." The older Bunnyx said as she had a nostalgic look on her face. "Good to see you again, Mini-bug, Mini-Chat…or in the future it will have been good to see you again. Hard to keep track with time travel at times."
"If you are future me, say something only I would know." Bunnyx said to her future counterpart. The future counterpart leaned closer and whispered in her ear, and went wide eyed and blush. "Gah! You could have told me the password of my computer or something. Not that!"
"Is it one of those 'noodle incidents'?" Roi Singe asked.
"SHUT UP, MONKEY BOY!" Both Bunnyx said at the same time.
Bunnyx turned to her counterpart. "You really are me…" She noted as she took a good look at her future self. "I am not going to get taller then this?" the present Bunnyx asked as she looked at herself. She has grown but her future self was not very tall.
"Hey, we are fun-sized. Besides, puberty makes up in other places." The future Bunnyx (I call her F. Bunnyx from now on) said as she ran her hands over her body. Several of the teammates whom were into girls blushed. "But let's put the talk on hold. There is a job to be done." She pointed her umbrella at the remnants of the other-dimensional Sentimonsters. They vanished in a flash of light. "They're back in their home dimension, their native Miraculous wielders will deal with them. Now, you going to activate the cure, Mini-bug?"
"Don't call me mini-bug! It's not because I'm not my future older self that I'm mini!" Ladybug said. "Er…Taurus? Can you throw it in the air for me because the moped is pretty freakin' big." Taurus nodded and lifted the moped up and threw it in the air while Ladybug said her trademark 'Miraculous Ladybug!' Everything wrecked or turned into bananas turned back to normal by the loveliness of Ladybug
"So nostalgic…" F. Bunnyx.
"All right, can please someone tell us what is going on here?" Queen Bee asked. "All I got is that this woman is a future version of our Bunnyx, but what was this about other-dimensional Sentimonsters? And are they the thing that warrant a future version of our teammate showing up?"
"Still straight to the point, Princess Bee." F. Bunnyx said. "But no, those Sentimonsters are not why I'm here. They are small potatoes compared to what's to come."
"What's to come?" Chat Noir asked.
"Spoilers!" F. Bunnyx said with a wink. "Though in all seriousness, it is going to be big. Some things are supposed to play out and I can't interfere, but there are other things that need my help fixing."
"Can't interfere with…what?" Bunnyx asked her future counterpart.
"Being a guardian of time isn't sunshine and rainbows. Sometimes there are things in the timeline, how horrible they may have been, that have to play out for the best possible future to exist. But no worries, for what's going to happen, I've seen worse. Still no reason to think it's the end of the world or something." F. Bunnyx said.
"Then what is the thing you can help us with?" Chat asked.
"Well, I normally deal with anomalies. Now, in simple terms because I now Roi Singe is among you…" F. Bunnyx noted.
"Hey!" the Monkey hero noted.
"…sometimes when time and space are messed with creates anomalies, portals that bring in things from other times and universes. Like these Sentimonsters. I need to deal with several of them to keep the timeline stable." F. Bunnyx continued, having ignored Kim;
"Wait, are these anomalies…are they my fault?" Bunnyx asked her older self.
"Well, they are a result of you attacking Kwami Hunter, and sending him and your teammates to the past. However, if you hadn't he wouldn't have been captured and continue to plague you all. And while he would be defeated in most of the timelines, it would get really messy over time. Besides, it forced you in a crash course with time powers, which is good for your timeline…" F. Bunnyx said.
"Is that good or bad?" Bunnyx asked.
"The timeline will always have anomalies, why do you think Guardians of time exist? We just have to limit it as much as possible and deal with them when we can't." F. Bunnyx said.
"So is that what you are going to do now?" Bunnyx asked.
"First I am going to need some grub. Travelling through dimensions quickly and dealing with a fair share of anomalies left me hungry. So, the bakery still open? I forgot to stock my fridge in the Burrow." F. Bunnyx said.
"Er…Sure." Ladybug said. "You can't really tell us anymore on what we may face?" Ladybug said.
"Sorry, spoilers." F. Bunnyx said. "Can't outright say it but at least you'll be a bit cautious. Or having a panic on the inside if I know you."
"So, not even a hint?" Rena Rouge asked.
"Sorry, I would give a riddle or a cryptic hint but I am not that good at that type of stuff." F. Bunnyx said. "I can say…just trust that you know each other and yourself well enough. That's the best I can come up with."
"Can you tell how much I'm going to…er, fill out?" Porcelet asked.
"Will I ever become a model?" Tigresse asked.
"Do we get flying cars in the future?" Kempfhahn asked.
"Do they ever find out how much wood a woodchuck could chuck if a woodchuck could chuck wood?" Pipistrello asked.
"Can't tell, can't tell, yes, and…maybe I didn't pay attention to it." Bunnyx said.
Ladybug looked pensive. She got why Bunnyx had to be careful and vague about things to come, time is fragile after all. But it makes her worried. She may be assured they could handle it, but what is it they should expect and through how much grief will they go through if they confronted said problem?
By the time of the appearance of F. Bunnyx though, the mysterious glows on Ladybug, Chat Noir, Rena Rouge, Carapace and Queen Bee had died down and they were forgotten for the moment.
Outside the city limits, in a piece of forested area, another portal opened, an armored figure stepping out. It gave the person and androgynous appearance as he or she was covered from head to toe. The armored one raised their hands and suddenly smaller portals, results of the anomalies, whom were elsewhere in the area, flocked towards them.
The person arranged the portal in a vein of changing the positions of pieces in one of those generic puzzle games on a mobile phone. The being zapped the portal zapped the portals, making them bigger…and soon they spawned something. The portals closed as people stepped out of these portals.
From each of these persons, a dark but familiar aura radiated. The people coming from different portals looked at each other and scowled at each other. "My allies!" the armored person said, in a voice that was so distorted so you wouldn't know what his or her gender was. "I have finally managed to find a world with active Miraculous. In our worlds they were lost, but in these they still exist. With them, we can recreate our worlds…better then before."
"I hope for your sake that you are right, Multiversity. I was growing impatient." One of the people stepping out the portal said, running his claws across a boulder, which dissolved as he scratched it.
"That always has been the problem with you, with any you. Can't count on you thinking before you leap." A second one said as she fidgeted with the string of her weapon.
"You two are ridiculous. If the situation wasn't dire, I would never be working with riff-raff like you." A third voice said, trying to check out her nails, only to be reminded that they were still covered in parts of her bodysuit and sighed.
"I on the other hand am looking FORWARD to working with the likes of you." A fourth person said with a smile that was so fake and clearly hid something much darker.
"Can it, I know for certain that you are not and that you would stab us in the back when you see your chance." The second person said again.
"Why do you say something like that? I just want to help my world and from the kindness from my heart, your worlds as well. Why are you so quick to accuse me?"
"I think we shouldn't be quick to judge her…" a fifth person said, holding her pole-like weapon tightly.
"Quick again to fall for the crocodile tears you over glorified tabloid writer?" the first person asked.
"I let you know that I was not…" from there it devolved into squabbling. The sixth person the portals had summoned stood by the side, not doing anything. He looked uneasy and clearly didn't want to get involved in the arguments.
"ENOUGH!" the armored being identified as Multiversity said. "I brought you all here for a reason. As an means to achieve our common goal. So until that is done, behave! I saved you from the collapse of your world, I can easily banish you all back to live out the rest of your pathetic lives in the wastelands that remain." They all, begrudgingly, stood down. "After this is done, you get to recreate your worlds at will, and you can vaporize each other as much as I care, but not before our victory is assured."
"Should not be a problem, after all, you have moi on the team!" the third person, the snooty and bratty person said as the others sighed.
"I must warn you, your counterparts will not give up anything without a fight. And they have not gone through…the same circumstances as you are, so they will not understand or empathize with your noble mission." Multiversity explained.
"That won't be a problem." The first person said as his hand flared with white destructive energy. "I will not let anyone get in my way…Not even if it's me."
"After everything that happened, after everything I did…I deserve it." The second person added.
"I always get what I want, and that
won't change now." The third person said.
"I really wish I didn't have to do this, but there is no choice." The fourth person said in a sickly sweet voice and that is supposed to invoke sadness, but sounded so fake you knew beforehand that she didn't regret anything.
"Everything needs to come back, and make sense again. Everything will be perfect." The fifth person added.
The last person just sighed. "Let's get this over with." He said, speaking for the first time since coming through the portal.
"Then go forth my allies, and don't mess it up." Multiversity said. "Seven worlds, one for each of us, are counting on us."
The six members of Multiversity's summoned posse spread out to the six corners of the city. Multiversity remained in place to observe from a distance, ready to step in when he/she was needed.
Another episode started and this will be a doozy.
Introduction to the older version of Bunnyx, the villain of the same name and I made no secret of the plot so some of you can already guess whom that villain had summoned at the end.
Yes, those were all sentimonsters from the show that didn't appear in my works yet. Wouldn't be out of place if the anomalies brought them from other worlds and i won't have to make up random threats that way.
Aside from that I am not going to use anything else from season four, letting you know. I may consider Zoe but I don't know if I can work her in at this stage of the story.
