Hello there,
Welcome my friends to the next chapter of Miraculous: My Iron Skin.
Hope your going to enjoy it as much as I had writing it and now on to the reviews.
LegendarySteel1: Happy you think so. I'll try to keep you from disappointed.
Boo the Ghost: Thanks. I know, I know. But having an attrective/pretty OC is a bit of a thing in my stories. Good eye you got there.
kyrogue23: Happy you like it. I admit, while I have a general plan on which chapters to adapt in which order, things get shuffled around a lot of the time.
James the apple: Then everyone in the team would have fucked up at least once. That still les then Chloe though.
And now on to the story.
During the early morning as the sun was rising over the city of Paris as the trio of heroes managed to save Paris once again. This time from a akumatized victim who was transformed into the very menacing Magician of Misfortune, threatening to make the Eiffel Tower vanish in a puff of smoke.
"Hey Spidy."
Iron Spider was standing on the edge of a building, overlooking the city with the sun rays shining through the clouds on him, before turning back to one of his partners Ladybug, who was standing behind him.
"Yes?"
"Is everything alright?" Ladybug said concerned, "You seemed a bit distracted back there."
"...Just some personal stuff." Iron Spider mumbled turning away from her.
"Would it help..." Ladybug said, walking up until she stood on the roofs edge, right next to the taller male, "If we talk about it? Would you even want to talk about it?"
"No." Iron Spider said shaking his head.
"No to it would help or that if you want to talk about it?" the female polka dotted hero said.
"Yes." he said, as he prepared his suit to take off, "Don't I will figure it out."
"Hey Spidy." she said making him turn back to her, "That was a nice thing you did for Juleka Couffaine and Nathaniel Kurtzberg the other day."
"How do you know..." Iron Spider said puzzled before coming to the conclusion pretty quick, "Are you following me on Bleeter? Oh, tell me your username so I can follow you back. You can poke me, I'll poke you back."
But instead of answering him, Ladybug threw her yo-yo and swung away from him.
"Yeah, she's totally follows me on Bleeter." he laughed to himself before flying away himself.
Ladybug arrives at a subway, where she turns back into Marinette as she walks upstairs. From her handbag, she heard a noise that sounded an awful lot like sneezing.
"Don't take this in the wrong way." she said, looking into her bag, "But you don't look so good Tikki."
"Marinette... I don't feel so good." the shivering kwami said, "I need you to take me to a doctor. I know a healer. I'll tell you where to go."
"But what will I tell him? You're a secret, he'll get all suspicious and ask me questions..." Marinette said realizing something, "And I know someone else who is gonna ask an awful lot of questions: my teacher! About why I'm late again! Tikki, can I take you to the healer right after school?"
Tikki nods before sneezing again.
Later that day inside Ms. Mendeleiev's classroom at College Françoise Dupont.
"Combustion is a high-temperature exothermic redox chemical reaction between a fuel and an oxidant. Usually atmospheric oxygen..." Ms. Mendeleiev instructed as she wrote down on the white board.
Travis, sitting next to Nathaniel as usual, was writing down notes for this class on the table next to him sat Rose and Juleka. The shorter blonde girl was watching the news on her phone.
"Today, Prince Ali, heir to the throne of the kingdom of Achu will do the honors during his official Parisian visit by hosting a toy fundraiser for the sick children at the Paris City Children's Hospital."
He could hear from the phone as Rose wiped her eyes as Juleka hands her tissues. "He's just so gorgeous and with a heart of gold." she said, "Oh! You know what? I'm gonna write him a letter professing my complete adoration and utmost respect."
"Rose is adorable." Travis thought just as Marinette stumbles into the classroom and then trips and falls in front of the teacher's desk.
"Ah, Marinette. What excuse do you have for us this time?" Ms. Mendeleiev said strictly, "Accidentally locked yourself in the bathroom again?"
"Uh, no! Of course not. I had to, uh, take my dog... to the vet!" Marinette tried to excuse her lateness, "Because he... ate an entire wool sweater. Uh, it must've smelled like..."
"Her dog ate a sweater?" Travis thought, "Mari doesn't have a dog... Right?"
"That girl is horrible at arriving on time." Nathaniel whispered, "She is almost as bad as you."
"I never arrive early or late." Travis said with a light smirk as he continued to take notes, "I always arrive just when I'm supposed to."
"...Whatever Travis the White... Say T. I have been thinking..." Nathaniel said back to his friend, who's attention he got, "If you where a superhero... You would tell me right?"
"Nath. I am a superhero." the British teen said dryly, "According to that crazy theory Alya had, I'm apparently Ladybug."
"Oh, heavens no!" Nathaniel said, faking the horror in his voice, "Than I would have rubbed one out on pictures of my best friend!"
"No shame in that." Travis said with a grin, "You wouldn't be the first, but you also won't be the last."
It was at that moment that Rose decided to spray perfume over her love letter, which drew the attention of Ms. Mendeleiev.
"Thank you, Rose." Ms. Mendeleiev said walking towards her table, "But I don't think our classroom needs extra refreshing."
"I thought someone packed a tuna fish sandwich." Chloe taunted, "But it turns out it's Rose's perfume."
Ms. Mendeleiev confiscates Rose's perfume, "Furthermore, using your smartphone during school hours is strictly forbidden." the teacher continued as she confiscates Rose's cellphone, "Take the rest of your things and go to the principal's office."
A sad Rose takes her things and starts to walk away before exiting the class.
Ms. Mendeleiev walks back up to the front of the class. "Watch what happens when you play about with flammable substances in a chemistry lab." the teacher explains as she spritzes some perfume inside a glass container with an open bottom and puts it upright, trapping the air inside. Then she pushes a button and a small flame comes out of a tube creating a small explosion.
"Ah, so that's how we make bombs." Travis thought as the rest of the class gasped.
"Just to make sure you all remember that, I'll be quizzing you tomorrow on lab safety." Ms. Mendeleiev said, "Again!"
Near the end of the school day as Travis was having a game of soccer, or football as Travis insisted on calling it, against Kim, using his agility, strength and speed which he had achieved plenty of practice for from his hobby as a superhero, to his advantage.
A group students where watching the game, among them were Marinette and Alya.
"You two really are made for each other." Alya said suddenly, to her friends surprise, "You both barely make it to school in time." she indicated to Travis, who manged to kick the ball in Kim's goal again.
"Travis was late for class again?" Marinette said surprised.
Alya nodded before getting a cheeky smile, "You know... Since you missed chemistry class, it would be an opportunity to speak to him if you can borrow his notes."
Marinette looked at her purse, where Tikki is still being sick. "No, I can't. I-I..."
"Girl, your fake excuses don't work on me." Alya began when she heard someone sneeze, "What was that?"
"Oh, uhm..." Marinette began, "I think I'm getting sick."
"Then don't breathe on him." Alya advised her, pointing towards Travis, who had just finished the game, managing a win against Kim, who had begun to try and convince him to join the school team.
As Marinette starts to walk over to him, Tikki sneezed again. "I'm not feeling too good." she whispered.
"Don't worry, Tikki, it'll just take a sec..." Marinette said, tripping over someone's bag as she was caught in two strong arms.
"You okay? Nothing broken?" Travis said gently, setting her back on her feet, "Sorry if I'm a bit sweaty. Just finished a football game."
"Yeah, uh, I'm fine." Marinette stuttered in her embarrassment.
"Oh, while your here Mari." he said, kneeling down to the same bag she had almost tripped over. Rummaging through it, before taking out a black notebook, "I notice you have been missing a few classes. So I made a copy of my notes."
"T-Thank you Travis." she accepted the notebook, about to place it in her purse when she finally realized Tikki isn't in her purse anymore. Her kwami must have accidentally fallen out of it when she tripped over Travis's bag.
Marinette looked in a panic until he saw Chloe standing with Sabrina, the blonde holding Tikki, who acted as if she was a plush doll.
"What kind of stuffed animal is this? Who left this here?" Chloe said studying Tikki, "The Prince will never have seen one like this before, and when he lays eyes on me, Prince Ali will forget all about those sick kids."
"D-did I hear you say Prince Ali?" Rose said softly.
"Not to you." Chloe sneered at her.
"Prince Ali's staying at Chloe's dad's hotel." Sabrina said.
"The only hotel fit for a Prince, and I'm going to be the first to meet him." Chloe bragged, "Isn't he lucky?"
"Oh, please." Rose nearly bagged, taking the letter from her bag, "Could you give him a special letter for me?"
"Sure, no prob." Chloe said, accepting the letter.
"Oh..." Rose said surprised, "That is so amazingly sweet of you to do that for me."
"Oh, you thought I was serious?" Chloe said, "You think I wanna get anywhere near this fish funk?" she laughed as she ripped the letter in two as she walked to her limo.
Rose gasps as tears begin to fill her big blue eyes as she watched Chloe get into her limousine and runs away as Marinette run after the extended car.
As she did, Marinette didn't noticed that Tikki had used her tangebility to move through the car and was now laying on the curb.
"M-Marinette..." the ill Tikki called out weakly to her partner, but she couldn't hear the faint noises the sick Kwami was making.
"...What is this?"
At once Tikki played the part of a doll again, as she was picked up by none other than Travis.
After he got home, placing his schoolbag on the sofa, Travis had a quick shower as he was still struggling with a theory that had been haunting in his head, was all because of that book.
The Miraculous Grimoire, as was one of the translations for the book, was the book he had found Adrien reading.
"Whoever owned the Grimoire could be a Miraculous holder... Maybe even Hawk Moth himself..." he thought frustrated as he walked towards the balcony, "But Adrien can't be Hawk Moth!"
"...But what if he is? He has a horrible home life, his mother is missing, and his father is neglectful. He has a perfect motive to lash out at the world." he continued to think, "Th-That would mean one of my best friends is a supervillain! I... I'd have to fight him and... I don't know if I could..."
He needed advice, but not everyone could understand the situation he was in. It was not a usual experience to have a friend of yours being a possible supervillain who terrorizes an entire city to get his hands on a pair of magical jewelry. As difficult as he found it, he took the phone from his pocket, he scrolled through his list of contacts until he found the one he was looking for.
With another deep sigh, he forced himself to dialed the number as he waited for the phone to go over.
It was only a few second when he heard the gruff voice from the other side, the man he was turning to for advice, "Travis? What is it?"
"Hey dad?" Travis said, rubbing a hand through his still wet hair, "Can... Can we talk for a minute?"
"Yeah... sure." his father spoke from the other side, "Just give me a moment to step outside."
"But sir we're in the middle of a meeting." another voice, one Travis recognized as one of his father's employee, from the other side protested.
"Then you will all sit there in your fancy leather chairs and wait like good little boys until the boss gets back!" his father yelled in the distance, "My teenage son has issues! He's probably gay but neither me nor his mum had the talk with him yet!"
"I'm sorry Travis. Go on."
"Dad... what would you do..." Travis began, being careful about his words as to not trouble his father or reveal what he had been doing as the Iron Spider, "If you suspected that a friend was going down a very bad path?"
"Smack some sense into them." his father said bluntly, "That might not be an option for you. Because as you know, your father crushes every opponent."
"...Except uncle J." Travis mumbled under his breath.
A heavy silence followed between father and son, something that would happen a lot lately, as he did had heard what Travis had said.
"...Now listen here, you little shit!" his father yelled before Travis hung up.
With a deep sigh, he lowered his phone, "...Nice talking with you dad." he mumbled, pocketing the phone as he walked back into the house.
As he walked back into the living room, he heard a surprise sneeze in his place. Looking around for the sound when he saw that toy he had founded on the side of the road. It was shivering on the ground.
"How did you get out of my bag?..." Travis thought puzzled, seeing his bag still closed on the sofa. He heard another sneeze followed by a cough from the toy, "Either it's not a toy, or my toys do come to life when I'm not in the room."
He bend down to pick it up, holding it in his hands, "Are... Are you okay?" he said.
"N-No, I'm not." Tikki managed to get out.
"Is there anything, I can do to help?" he said gently, feeling sorry for the poor creature, "I'm Travis by the way."
"I'm... Tikki." she coughed, "T-There is something."
"Tikki?..." he thought, remembering where he had read that name before, "She must be the kwami of creation. She is Ladybug's kwami."
Not much later, Travis had driven his scooter to what appeared to the destination Tikki had told him, a Chinese massage shop.
He watched as a short Chinese man with dark brown eyes, gray hair, a mustache and goatee. He wears a red Hawaiian shirt with a white hibiscus flower pattern, tan capri pants, dark brown shoes, and a bracelet with some sort of turtle shaped stone on it.
Travis watches as the man helps heal the sickness from Tikki. She must have been very sick and desperate if she would trust a complete stranger to her.
"Is she going to be okay?" he said as he watched the Chinese man hit a gong.
"One who is burning with impatience can never eat hot porridge." the chinese man said.
"Right..." Travis said confused, "I don't even like porridge..."
"Silence please. Reading energies." he said, placing both his hands in front of Tikki, "What type of cat did you say?"
"Rare hairless flying species from London." Travis lied with ease, "I was allowed to have one, because my parents bought one for me."
The Chinese man stares at Travis, "Unusual." he mumbled, picking up his gong for the last time, "We are finished. Your cat's health has been restored."
Travis looks down at Tikki. To his delight, the kwami opens her eyes, feeling much better as she flies into Travis hands.
"Thank you very much." Travis said, bowing his head in respect, "How did you do that?"
"Ancient Chinese secret." the Chinese man said as Travis paid him for his services before watching him walk out of the door, "It doesn't seem you have a Miraculous, Travis."
Travis drives along the road, as he carries Tikki in his pocket, her large red head pocking out of it.
"Feeling better now?" he said to the kwami.
"Never felt better!" Tikki said thankfully, "I'm really grateful for your help Travis."
"It's no problem..." he said, suddenly stopping his scooter when he spotted an akumatized victim.
She has pale green, her hair is pink with lighter pink edges on her bangs. It is long and tied back into a rosebud-like bun. Her outfit is a black jumpsuit and covers her arms, legs, and neck. Narrow pink lines go down her puffed sleeves and puffed shorts, and they make a rose design on her chest. Her shoes are high heels, having pink heels and pointed pink tips to her toes.
"Tikki, we have a problem." Travis said parking his scooter on the side, quickly thinking but not finding a solution on how to transform into Iron Spider without Tikki finding out his secret identity.
"What is it?" Tikki said, her eyes widening when she saw it, "An akumatized victim! You need to get out of here."
"...I can't." he said, walking towards an alleyway, "Tikki. I know your a kwami. More specifically, Ladybug's kwami."
"What?" Tikki said surprised, "How do you..."
"That doesn't matter now." Travis said as he stood in the shadows, "I'm going to reveal one of my secrets. But you must swear to me, that you won't tell anyone, not even Ladybug."
"You saved my life, Travis." Tikki said, still in his pocket, "I owe you that much."
Travis gave her a nod, taking the spider head symbol from his bag and he placed it on his chest as he double tapped on the center. Striding forward as the nano machines contained in the head formed into his red and gold suit.
Tikki looked surprised as the suit began to form, but even more when she felt herself being pulled into the spider head. It felt like when she would be pulled into the ladybug earrings.
"W-What happened?"
"Tikki? Is that you?" Iron Spider thought, "Because the voice in my head usually sounds different. A lot less feminine."
"I-I think so. This is new for me." Tikki said, sounding just as confused as he was, "Even Ladybug can't hear me when she is transformed. What did you do?"
"I don't know." he said, walking out of the alleyway. The lenses in his mask widen in shock at how he looked.
In the dining hall, Prince Ali's press conference was underway, where many important people where in attendance.
"In honor of your presence here in Paris your highness." Mayor Bourgeois said, "I've taken it upon myself to organize a lavish fireworks display on the Seine river. They will be displayed from this barge."
"Thank you, or how do we say in your language?" Prince Ali gasped, "Totally awesome!"
"We shall have to see if it fits with the Prince's busy schedule." Prince Ali's chaperone said, "We have very little time for festivities. His highness has many responsibilities."
Suddenly a foul smell permeated from Chloe, it smelled a lot like rotten fish. Perfume sprays behind the paparazzi, and at once they call sang, "At your service, Princess Fragrance."
They all turn around and bowed down while Princess Fragrance strides into the room.
"My prince, my prince." she said, holding out her perfume gun, "Smell the fragrance of my eternal love!"
But before she could, it was hit by a yo-yo nearly knocking her off the ground. "Who dares?" she said.
"I do."
The onlookers thought it was Iron Spider or perhaps a male Ladybug. But instead of his red and gold suit. He now wears a skin-tight ladybug patterned suit with black accents on the knees and upper arms. Red gloves and boots. His red mask still covered his entire head, but his lenses were now white with a black outline. He also has a yo-yo around his waist.
"Seriously." Princess Fragrance said, "Who are you!?"
"I-It's uhm..." he said, trying to think of a hero name, "Ironbug."
Princess Fragrance sprays her perfume around herself to create a fog. "Well Ironbug, you can't escape my perfume!"
But Ironbug kicked open a door leading to the stairwell, "Emergency evacuation." he said gesturing to the door, "Everybody who's not a superhero. Get out of here."
He let's the prince, his chaperone, the mayor and Chloe, before slamming the door shut before using the yo-yo to deflect the mist.
"No one will take my prince away!" Princess Fragrance fires her weapon at Ironbug who uses his yo-yo to knock out the perfume spray. He then extended the cord, knocking Princess Fragrance and throws her in the kitchen as her mind controlled minions went in to attack them.
Ironbug looks out the window and sees Chloe, Mayor Bourgeois, Prince Ali and his chaperone get inside the chaperone's car and drive away.
"I need to get Cat Noir on the case." Ironbug thought, jumping out of the window to evade the brainwashed paparazzi, using the yo-yo to swing himself upwards so he landed on the roof.
He used the yo-yo to call Cat Noir, and almost immediately he got into contact with the cat hero.
"Spidy?" Cat Noir said surprised when he saw that it wasn't Ladybug calling him, but Ironbug, "Is that you?"
"Yes." Ironbug said, "It's me."
"...Why do you look like a child of you and Ladybug?" Cat Noir said surprised, "Or did someone put you and Ladybug together with a Polymerization?"
"...Okay, first off, wardrobe malfunction. Ladybug got her suit mixed up with mine in the washing machine." Ironbug told him dryly, "Secondly, we have an akumatized victim. She is after Prince Ali, who is in a limousine. Sending you the license plate to you now. Thirdly, you play Yugioh?"
"It's a hobby of mine. Hey, that same car just drove by me." Cat Noir said, rushing after it, using the sunroof to enter it, "Another question... What is this fish smell? This is even too much for a cat."
"It's Chloe." Ironbug said smirking under his mask as he jumped off the roof and began to swing in the direction of the limousine.
Inside the limousine, was sitting between Prince Ali and his chaperone, still on the phone with Ironbug.
"Can we open the windows?" Cat Noir said. The chaperone opens all the car windows, both Prince Ali and Cat Noir gasp for air.
"We have precisely nine minutes to get to the hospital." The chaperone said, checking her watch, "The prince is on a very strict schedule."
"What? No way we can going to the hospital now!" Cat Noir shouted at her stupidity, "We have to get Prince Ali out of Paris ASAP!"
A loud thud was heard from above and everyone in the car looks up and through the sunroof, they saw Princess Fragrance standing there with a quite deranged smile directed at Prince Ali.
"My prince!" Princess Fragrance said, "Fancy seeing you here, what a stroke of luck!"
"The windows!" Cat Noir shouted.
The chaperone tries to close all the car windows, but Princess Fragrance stops the sunroof with her feet. "My prince, I'll take you to the Pont des Arts, and there, we'll seal our love!" she said before the sprays everyone in the car, including Cat Noir.
"I can see why Ladybug travels around by swinging. Perhaps I should build something like this for my suit." Ironbug thought as he still used the yo-yo to swing from building to building in the direction of Pont des Arts bridge, "Bloody hell, I just can't believe that Cat Noir plays a children's card game. Wait, what am I saying? That's totally believable!... Perhaps that's some new information for the file."
"You got a lot of files about Cat Noir?"
Ironbug had forgotten that Tikki was still absorbed into his armor, and could hear his every thought.
"...Perhaps." Ironbug thought, "Say, Tikki. How come you can hear my thoughts?"
"I don't know. This is a first time for me." Tikki's voice echoed in his head, "Not even Ladybug can hear me when she is transformed."
"Perhaps it has something to do with my suit or the Ladybug earrings." he thought, "Maybe because of some similarity between the material I used for my suit and whatever the mage used to create the Miraculous."
"You know of the mage?" Tikki said surprised, "So you did had the Grimoire."
"What do you mean by that?" Ironbug thought, suddenly coming to a stop on the roof, "How would you know I had the Grimoire?"
"It's uhm..." Tikki began, trying to find away to not reveal her owners identity, "I saw you reading it at a cafe where me and Ladybug passed. I asked of her to spy on you to find if it was the real Grimoire."
"...You mean it was a coincidence, that you two saw me with that book?" he thought, walking towards the edge of the roof, "Ladybug is not following me or knows who I am in real life?"
"She doesn't know your Iron Spider." Tikki admitted as Ironbug continued their journey, "She actually thought you might be Hawkmoth."
"What!?" Ironbug thought insulted, almost losing his grip on the yo-yo and tumbling to the ground, "Why!?"
"...The Guardian always believed that whoever possessed the Grimoire." Tikki explained to him, "must also have the Peacock, the Butterfly and the Hawk Miraculous."
"And you told Ladybug what this so called 'Guardian' theorized." Ironbug thought, having to admit it was a good theory, "So this Grimoire could lead us to discover the identity of... Hawk Moth."
"Travis..." Tikki said, "Do you have an idea who it belonged to?"
"No." he lied as they arrived on the roof of a building overlooking the Pont des Arts where Ironbug spotted Princess Fragrance about to wed Prince Ali.
Ironbug descended from the as he observed the wedding, Princess Fragrance is marching toward Prince Ali, while held by Mayor Bourgeois like a bride. Prince Ali is with his chaperone, Cat Noir and Chloé
Princess Fragrance stops in front of Prince Ali and holds both of her hands to his, "I can't wait for us to be together. Forever!" she gestured towards her servants, and Cat Noir opens a box to reveal a padlock with Princess Fragrance's perfume coming off of it, "This will lock our love forever, my prince!"
Thinking quick, Ironbug used the yo-yo to knock the padlock out of Princess Fragrance's hands and into the Seine river.
"Iron Spidy! Fabulous he! Iron Spider. Genuflect, show some respect, down on one knee!" Ironbug sang from atop a nearby lamp post, "Now, try your best to stay calm. Brush up your Sunday salaam, the come and meet his spectacular coterie! Iron Spidy! Mighty is he! Iron Spider. Strong as ten regular men, definitely!"
"Your no Prince Ali!" Princess Fragrance shouted, apparently recognizing the tune the hero was singing, as she fires her gun at Ironbug, "Your more of a Gaston!"
Ironbug evades over it and lands with a front flip, "How is that an insult!?" he exclaimed confused, "No one hits like Iron Spider! Matches wits like Iron Spider! No one takes cheap shots like Iron Spider!"
"No one schemes like Iron Spider! No one memes like Iron Spider!" the akumatized Princess repeated frustrated as she continued to fire at Ironbug, who continued to nimbly evade it, "No one falls to his death as he screams like Iron Spider!"
"Now your getting into the trash talking!" Ironbug shouted before he realized to his annoyance that she had him singing too.
"Servants, attack!" the enraged Princess ordered and Prince Ali's chaperone, the Mayor, Chloe and Cat Noir charged at him.
"Bring it." Ironbug said, taking the yo-yo before rushing towards the charging group.
Vaulting over the charging chaperone, he smacked her on the back of the head with the yo-yo, knocking her out. He planted his boot into Mayor Bourgeois to knock him back. He planted his fist against Chloe's face with a backhanded punch before grabbing a hold of Cat Noir's arms.
"Snap out of it, Cat Noir!" Ironbug pleaded with his teammate, "It's me, Spidy!"
"Give me your Miraculous!" Cat Noir sang.
"This is not turning into a musical!" Ironbug shouted, falling backwards. Using the momentum, he used his feet as to throw Cat Noir backwards before following it up with a blast of his gauntlet to push Cat Noir further backwards.
He turn in the direction Princess Fragrance had run off to with Prince Ali when a massive pink cloud, of what Ironbug theorized was perfume, formed into the sky and began to blot out the sun.
"Well..." Ironbug thought, "That's not good..."
"That's an understatement." Tikki said as Ironbug spots a boat full of fireworks, "What are you thinking?"
"Shouldn't you know?" Ironbug thought, using the jets in his boots to assist in the jump before landing on the boat.
He walked over to the fireworks control panel, pushing a few buttons thus launching the fireworks into the sky. He then took to the sky, flying towards where the cloud had been forming from.
At the Le Grand Paris rooftop pool where Princess Fragrance watches as the fireworks clear out the giant perfume cloud.
"This city is not for us. Too many people want to bother us." Princess Fragrance growls turning to Prince Ali, "Let's go far away from here, my prince! Very far!"
"Your already leaving?" Ironbug said, floating above them, "But the party just got started! We haven't even gotten to the Methylenedioxymethamphetamine yet!"
"You! You are ruining everything!" Princess Fragrance said angrily, "So now I'll ruin you!"
"Believe me princess, the Star Wars Sequels already did that." Ironbug said dryly, quickly landed to evade under her next shot, "Time to try this... Lucky Charm!"
He throws up his arm, and quite to his surprise he could invoke the power of creation. What surprised him even more was that all he got was a balloon. He avoids Princess Fragrance's perfume bullet as he charged towards her.
"What am I supposed to do with this?" Ironbug thought, side stepping the next attack, "I guess it isn't as easy as Ladybug makes it appear to be."
Ironbug came in swinging with his left fist, which the Princess evade. Using this opportunity to aim her perfume gun right at his face.
"You can't escape, Ironbug!" Princess Fragrance said, "It's over!"
"It is... but not for me." he said smugly, placing the balloon over the barrel, corking Princess Fragrance's perfume gun and contain the perfume in the balloon, "Checkmate."
He uses the yo-yo to grab the gun and with a powerful swing, smashes it on the ground releasing the akuma.
"No more evil doing for you, little akuma. Time to de-evilize!" Ironbug said, catching the akuma in the yo-yo, purifying the butterfly. He throws the Lucky Charm into the air. It explodes into a blast of energy that turns everyone back to normal.
Both Prince Ali is back to normal and Princess Fragrance turns back into Rose at the same time and they both don't seem to remember what happened to them.
"Prince Ali?" Rose said as she stood up. She rushes toward him, admires him up close before grabbing his left arm by cuddling him while she giggles)
"And who are you?" Prince Ali said confused to Ironbug, "Ladybug? Or Iron Spider?"
"Don't mind me, Prince Ali fabulous he." Ironbug laughed, giving a two finger salute before throwing his yo-yo, "I'll leave you to chat with your number one fan." and he swings away leaves and he gives Prince Ali and Rose some privacy.
Some time later as the sun began to set, Iron Spider was perched on on top of the Eiffel tower overlooking the city he had just saved. Tikki was floating next to him, who was released from his suit the moment he formed it back into the spider head.
"Well that was an adventure and a half." Iron Spider said, "Think you can find your way back home from here?"
Tikki nodded, "Thank you again Spidy." the kwami of creation said.
"Hey, don't worry about it." he said, waving it off again, "Your Ladybug's partner, so in a way, your mine partner as well."
"Especially after what happened with me and your armor." Tikki said with a giggle.
"Let's not do that again. Ladybug's earrings think you might be cheating on them." he chuckled, exchanging a fist bump with the kwami. But it was more like him holding out his fist and she laid her hand on it.
With one last wave, Tikki set off into the city towards Marinette's home as Iron Spider watched her become smaller, and smaller until she was a little red blot before disappearing from sight.
He looked in the direction of the setting sun, the new information he had accidentally gotten from Tikki worried him even more. If the one who had the Grimoire could be Hawkmoth, then this pointed the evidence even more in the direction of Adrien being the villain.
Adding even more on top of that, it seemed Hawkmoth was in the possession of more than one Miraculous.
