(Alya's perspective)
I wake up on the street a few blocks away from the Agreste mansion, I can barely see the street lights illuminating my path. But it was just the middle of the day.
That makes no sense. I can't remember what happened.
The last thing I remember is when, ... when I was suspended. An alert sounds on my phone, and I go to unlock it.
My jaw drops at what I see, tons of headlines showing the latest news.
'Ladybug's Identity Revealed?'
'Has Hawkmoth won?'
'Ladybug and Chat Noir's Identities.'
'An Akuma Beats Ladybug and Chat Noir.'
How did I miss this story? This could be great for the blog.
I click on one of the links and see a video load up.
An Akuma smiles at the camera while Ladybug looks on in horror, restained behind her.
The Akuma looks familiar.
It looks a lot like me.
A chill sweeps over me as I slowly make the realization.
My phone slips from my hand.
It is me.
I cover my mouth in shock.
I was akumatized.
What did I do?
Suddenly the memories start flooding back.
They're like a dream, quickly fading. I grasp what I can.
ChloƩ's not Ladybug.
The real Ladybug came, and she's?
I can't remember.
I locked up Chat Noir then I...
Then as quickly as it began the trip down the rabbit hole was over.
The video.
I snatch my phone from the ground and inspect the damage. It seems to be fine.
I quickly rewind the video and press play.
Lady Wifi pulls at Ladybug's mask getting nowhere.
Suddenly, she takes off Ladybug's earrings and in a flash of light, the red latex costume disappears, and Ladybug is revealed to be,
Marinette?
