A few days has passed since Miracle Queen.
It's also been a few days since Chat Noir's behavior changed drastically, from a supportive hero, whom she can trust on, to someone always vying for her attention.
Ladybug – Marinette Dupain-Cheng – couldn't understand why.
Chat Noir was Ladybug's pillar of support when her insecurities reared their ugly heads as Chloe, Miracle Queen cost her, her allies and mentor.
There was even a time that the Black Cat hero stopped calling her 'milady' as if understanding the amount of burden she now carry.
Then a complete 180 happened overnight.
"My fair Lady." Chat Noir sang and went on one knee before Ladybug. "We are the very definition of soul mates, won't meow caress the meow-rt of mine?" He continued all the while dodging the cars a gigantic infant was throwing at them.
"Chat! Focus!" Ladybug chided while dodging another flying car.
"But why?" Chat pouted as he swatted a flying car coming his way with his baton.
"Like I told you, I'm already in love with someone else." Ladybug explained in exasperation.
"But we-we're soul mates!"
And the same conversation happens every time an Akuma strikes.
Marinette was really tired and frustrated with how her partner was acting. She had half the mind to force her partner to relinquish his hold on the Black Cat Miraculous and surrender it to her.
It was well within her rights as she's the newly minted guardian of one of the Miracle boxes.
But…
But… Marinette can't help but feel that she was missing something.
She was missing something important.
But…
But what?
It's been years since Captain Marvel, Billy Batson, resigned from the Justice League.
It's been years since he had to team up with his rogue's gallery: Dr. Sivana; Mr. Mind; and Black Adam; to fight against Darkseid's Parademons.
He was called back to the Rock of Eternity where the Wizard Shazam told him some troubling news.
"Restore balance of the universe Billy Batson." The Wizard stated. "I fear that a malicious force has tipped the scales between luck and misfortune."
"Has something happened Wizard?" Billy asked in his mortal form.
"Indeed something has." The wizard nodded. "Head towards Paname and there Solomon will lend you his wisdom."
By using his status as a radio documentary reporter, Billy managed to be able to temporarily transfer to Collège Francoise Dupont under the guise of writing and reporting an essay about Paris's pasts and as an exchange student with Fawcett High School.
"Shazam!" Billy shouted as lightning struck him.
Billy transformed into his champion form.
He was now looked like an adult with bulging muscles wearing red spandex with a white cape, golden boots and gauntlets.
Just like that, he now gained the wisdom and knowledge he needed to restore the balance between creation and destruction.
The balance between both sides of luck.
A/N: As this is years after the Justice League Cartoons, after Captain Marvel resigned from the Justice League, he's bound to know more about his powerset. I'm incorporating in some of the powersets of his other incarnations, especially electrokinesis and spell casting as seen in the New 52.
I am also calling him Captain Marvel to be consistent of the cartoon's continuity.
