Marinette's room, Marinette Dupain-Cheng is sleeping and then is woken up by her cellphone. Marinette wakes up
"Huh? Happy birthday- ow!" Exclaimed Marinette.
She jumps down the stairs and hits her chair.
"Happy birthday!" Declared Marinette.
She gets on her computer and turns it on, revealing her desktop background to be a collage of Adrien Agreste's pictures.
"Ah! Happy birthday, Adrien" Said Marinette.
She makes kissing noises towards the screen. The scene shifts to Adrien's bathroom. Adrien is brushing his teeth.
"Happy birthday, Adrien!" Declared Plagg, as he brings a piece of Camembert cheese wrapped with a red bow to Adrien. "Ugh, Plagg! Get that filthy piece of Camembert out of my face!" Shouted Adrien, disgusted as he plugs his nose. "Huh?" Asked Plagg, as he eats the cheese.
The scene shifts to the Dupain-Cheng House. Marinette is walking down the stairs with a gift in her hands while her mom is in the kitchen drinking tea.
"Marinette, don't forget to clean your room after school today" Said Sabine. "Mom! It's Friday, and I'm already doing something with Alya" Said Marinette. "Fine, I'll go ahead and clean it, but don't blame me if I come across any of your private stuff, like your e-mails, your diary..." Said Sabine.
Marinette makes a nervous face
"Okay! I'll do it, I'll do it" Said Marinette.
She goes up to her mom, gives her a kiss, and starts to leave.
"Have a nice day, sweetie" Said Sabine. "Happy birthday- I mean, have a nice day" Said Marinette, as she closes the door. "Hm? Hm" Said Sabine.
The Scene shifts to Agreste Mansion. Adrien is eating alone at a big dining table. He looks sad.
"Your schedule, Adrien" Said Nathalie, as she walks in and hands Adrien a tablet. "Thanks, Nathalie" Said Adrien, as he takes the tablet.
Nathalie starts to leave.
"Hey, um, my father get back to you about my birthday party?" Asked Adrien, as his face lights up. "Well, um- He doesn't think would be a good idea" Said Nathalie.
Adrien's face turns sad again and speaks softly
"Course not" Said Adrien. "Happy birthday, Adrien" Said Nathalie, as she leaves.
The scene changes to outside of Françoise Dupont High School. Adrien and Nino are talking. Meanwhile, Alya and Marinette are hiding nearby out of sight. Chloé and Sabrina are in the school but near enough to see what's happening.
"Dude, seriously? Has your dad always been such a downer? You'd think he'd remember what it was like to be young and wanna party a little" Said Nino, as he blows bubbles. "No, I'm pretty sure he was a downer back then too. Well, at least I tried" Said Adrien. "It's your b-day, dude! Insist" Said Nino, wrapping one arm around Adrien. "You can do it, you can do it!" Declared Alya, encouraging Marinette. "I can do it, I can do it!" Declared Marinette. "You know what, I'm gonna have a little convo with your pops" Said Nino. "Don't waste your time. He's not gonna change his mind" Said Adrien.
Marinette pops up to look at Adrien while he's not looking
"I can't do it, I can't do it!" Declared Marinette, making Alya facepalm. "Uh, no you don't, girl. You've been stalling all morning. Now's the time" Said Alya as she pushes Marinette over to Adrien. "Ah!" Exclaimed Marinette, as Alya stops her right in front of Adrien. "Um, he- Hey" Said Marinette.
She is nervous as she holds her gift behind her back.
"Hey" Said Adrien. "Wait! Am I seeing what I think I'm seeing? Don't tell me it's Adrien's birthday?!" Asked Chloé, as she watches what's happening outside.
Sabrina checks her tablet, is surprised, and makes excusing noises while smiling sheepishly.
"Ugh, do I have to do everything myself? Seriously, what are you good for?" Said Chloé, as she walks toward Adrien. "I, uh, I wanted to, umm, gift you a make-– I mean, gift you a give I made- I mean..." Stuttered Marinette, nervously.
Chloé yawns while Marinette is talking and then shoves her away
"Out of the way" Said Chloé, before acting sweet. "Happy birthday, Adrien" Said Chloé.
She throws herself onto him and gives him a kiss on the cheek
"Yeah, thanks Chlo" Said Adrien. "Dummy" Said Marinette.
Alya facepalms.
"Did you get the gift I sent you?" Asked Chloé. "Uh, no" Said Adrien. "What? Oh, those delivery guys. I bet it was too heavy so they had to go back and get another guy to help. Those slackers" Said Chloé, pretending to be annoyed.
Chloé wraps her arms around Adrien's shoulders again.
"I'll make sure they get it to you by tonight" Said Chloé.
Chloé gives him another kiss on the cheek and leaves, humming a happy tune to herself, while Nino chuckles and playfully punches Adrien's arm
"Get back there! Don't be a pushover, literally" Said Alya "Mmm" Vocalized Marinette, sounding defeated as Alya looks frustrated. "What did you get him?" Asked Sabrina to Chloé. "I didn't, you did" Said Chloé, mad.
Chloé points at Sabrina and sounds really angry.
"And it better be amazing, and it better not be late!" Shouted Chloé. "Mhm" Said Sabrina, cowardly while nodding. "Ugh!" Exclaimed Chloé, furiously while leaving.
Sabrina taps on her tablet quickly while looking scared and following Chloé.
"C'mon, you can do it" Said Alya. "Hm!" Exclaimed Marinette, looking determined as a limousine arrives. "Gotta go. Photoshoot" Said Adrien.
Adrien gets into the limo and leaves, as a boy in a hoodie walked up to Alya and Marinette
"Why can't I just mean what I say?" Asked Marinette. "I think the term you are looking for is say what you mean" Said the boy. "Looks like I've got some business to take care of with Adrien's old man" Said Nino, to himself, before walking away. "Uh, who are you?" Asked Alya. "Oh, I apologise. Walking up to strangers and correcting one doesn't exactly start a friendship. Allow me to introduce myself" Said the boy as he pulled his hood down, revealing medium length messy bright red and white hair. "Woah..." Said Alya. "My name is Hope Xiao Rose. I've been transferred to Françoise Dupont from Jigoku Jinsei Academy. I say been, I mean since the start of the term" Said Hope. "Really? I've never seen you before" Said Marinette. "Me nither" Said Alya. "Of course not. I usual sit directly behind you two. You practically have to be out of your seats to see me. If I take my hood off. Now, you two are Alya Césaire and Marinette Dupain-Cheng, right?" Asked Hope. "How do you know our names?" Asked Alya. "I pay attention. Also, roll call" Said Hope. "Oh yeah. It all makes sense. Well, we were going to get a gift to my friend..." Said Marinette. "Certainly. Anything for love" Said Hope, slyly.
The scene changes to outside Agreste Mansion. Marinette, Hope and Alya stand at the gate. Marinette tries to open the mailbox.
"This mailbox won't budge" Said Marinette. "Ring the doorbell" Said Alya as she points to the doorbell. "Are you kidding? What if Adrien answers the..." Said Marinette.
Alya presses rings the doorbell, and Marinette panics and screams.
"Well, it looks like it's 30 seconds from the door to the gate so if you run now, you'd be about halfway back to school, witch seems to be down the street" Said Hope.
A hidden compartment on the wall opens and a camera appears.
"Yes?" Asked Nathalie. "Um, hi. I'm in Adrien's class and I, uh, heh, did I already say that? Umm..." Said Marinette, as she shows the gift to the camera while slowly looking more nervous with every word. "Apologies. What my friend is trying to say is that we are part of Adrien's class and we came here to gift him a gift" Said Hope, putting a hand on Marinette's shoulder. "Put it in the box" Said Nathalie, as the mailbox opens. "Uh..." Said Marinette, as she puts the gift in the mailbox. "Thank you, and apologies if we have wasted your time" Said Hope.
The camera retreats and wall compartment closes. Marinette is excited.
"Oh! I hope he likes it!" Declared Marinette. "You signed the note, right?" Asked Alya. "Obviously. That's the most important part. Nobody could forget to sign a gift for the person they like" Said Hope.
Marinette makes a surprised face.
"Ah, girl, girl, girl" Said Alya. "Improbable..." Said Hope, as Marinette groans
The Scene changes to the Agreste Mansion interior. Nathalie enters her office with Marinette's gift in her hands and puts it on her desk while sitting down.
"Who was that, Nathalie?" Asked Gabriel, from the intercom. "A friend of Adrien's. She was delivering a gift for his birthday" Said Nathalie. "Did you remember to buy him a present from me?" Asked Gabriel. "Uh-uh, but you didn't ask me to" Said Nathalie, surprised. "Of course I did!" Shouted Gabriel, angrily. "Yes, Mr. Agreste. I-I'll take care of it" Said Nathalie. "Good" Said Gabriel, disconnecting from the intercom.
Nathalie covers her mouth, in fear
"Uh" Stammered Nathalie.
She looks despaired, then her face lights up and she takes Marinette's gift.
"Ah" Exclaimed Nathalie.
The doorbell rings and she composes herself.
"Yes?" Asked Nathalie. "Uh, hi" Said Nino.
Nino and Nathalie are standing in the foyer, waiting.
"He'll be here in a minute" Said Nathalie. "Adrien's not home yet" Said Gabriel, as he enters. "Uh, I was coming to see you, du-sir" Said Nino. "Me?" Asked Gabriel. "Yeah, that right. Look, I know you don't want Adrien to have a party, but it's his birthday, dude-I mean, sir. It's all he wants" Said Nino. "No. That's final" Said Gabriel, as he raises his palm. "That's messed up" Said Nino.
Adrien enters without anyone noticing.
"He never screws up in class, he always does whatever you tell him. Photoshoots, fencing, Chinese, piano..." Said Nino. "Nino? You're here" Said Adrien. "Anything for my best bud" Said Nino, to Adrien. "Show some awesomeness, du-I mean, sir, please" Said Nino, to Mr. Agreste.
Mr. Agreste looks at him angrily.
"Forget it, Nino. Really, it's fine" Said Adrien. "Listen, young man. I decide what's best for my son. In fact, I've just decided that you're a bad influence and you're not welcome in my house ever again. Leave now!" Shouted Gabriel. "Father, he was just trying to do something cool for me" Said Adrien, as Mr. Agreste leaves. "Goodbye" Said Nathalie, as she steps in front of them
Nino starts to leave, but Adrien catches him outside the front doors.
"Nino, wait! I'm sorry. My father-he's pretty stubborn. It's just best to stay out of his way" Said Adrien.
Nino becomes furious to learn that Adrien's father is colder.
"It's not fair, Adrien. Harsh, uncool" Said Nino.
Nino crosses his arms and leaves, leaving Adrien looking sad.
"Thanks anyway, Nino" Said Adrien.
The Scene changes to the Place des Vosges. Nino is sitting on a bench, looking angry. He starts blowing bubbles with his bubble wand.
"But, Daddy, please" Said a kid.
A father takes his son by the hand.
"No, it's not playtime. You've got your chores to do" Said the kid's dad, as the kid complains. "Ugh. Adults ruin everything all the time" Said Nino, angrily.
The scene changes to Hawk Moth's lair. His window screen opens.
"Desperate to help his friend, but feeling powerless. How frustrating! It won't be long before frustration turns to anger!" Declared Hawk Moth.
He takes a butterfly into his hand and black particles start to flow into it. It turns into an akuma.
"Fly away, my little akuma, and evilize him" Said Hawk Moth, as the akuma flies out into Paris.
The Scene changes back to The Place des Vosges. Nino is blowing bubbles. The akuma flies in and is absorbed into Nino's bubble wand. Nino looks up with an angry face and a glowing pink butterfly symbol. Hawk Moth speaks from his lair. He, too, has the same pink symbol in front of his face.
"Hawk Moth is my name and Bubbler is now yours. I will help you with these horrid adults and all you have to do in return is help me get something from Ladybug and Cat Noir" Said Hawk Moth. "Yes, Hawk Moth" Said Nino.
Nino stands up and purple-black smoke is released from the bubble wand and covers his body. Cut to a rooftop, where the Bubbler flies in and crouches.
"No more adults means total freedom! This is SOOO sweet! Off the hook!" Declared the Bubbler.
He takes out his bubble sword and flies over Paris, leaving a trail of purple bubbles behind him. The bubbles start capturing adults, then turning green and flying away while citizens scream.
"Help!" Shouted a woman. "Look out!" Shouted a man, as children started crying. "Perfect" Said Hawk Moth, from his lair.
The Scene changes to the Dupain-Cheng House. Marinette is eating lunch.
"Adrien must have gotten his gift by now" Said Marinette, as her mom opens the window. "What's that you said?" Asked Sabine. "Um, I can't wait to get back to school this afternoon, hehe" Said Marinette, looking surprised.
Her mother chuckles and then a purple bubble flies in through the window and captures her. Marinette looks scared. Sabine starts screaming.
"Mom! Mom!" Yelled Marinette.
Marinette sees her father also in a bubble.
"Dad? Dad!" Shouted Marinette. "Your parents! Hawk Moth must've released another akuma" Said Tikki. "I've got to find his newest villain ASAP. Tikki, spots on!" Declared Marinette.
Marinette transforms into Ladybug, looking unhappy. Cut to The Bubbler on a rooftop.
"And now, party time!" Declared the Bubbler, as kids cryed.
Ladybug runs out of the bakery. Purple bubbles appear in the sky, broadcasting a message from the Bubbler.
"Today is your lucky day, little dudes. The adults have taken the day off, so make the most of it. No chores, no homework, no more nagging, just fun, fun, fun, fun. This is the Bubbler's gift to you" Said the Bubbler. "Don't worry, your parents will come back. I'll see to it. You take care of them in the meantime" Said Ladybug, to a group of kids and a teen as she ran off. "Yay! Go, Ladybug!" Cheered the group
The Scene changes to Agreste Mansion. Adrien eats lunch alone in the mansion's dining room. Adrien finishes his meal and gets up.
"Wow. That was a birthday lunch break to remember. Yay!" Declared Adrien, sarcastic.
He walks into the foyer and stops.
"Nathalie? Father?" Asked Adrien.
He shrugs sadly, then walks outside to a crowd of his classmates cheering.
"Yay! Woo! Happy birthday!" Cheered the classmates. "Hey, hey, hey, birthday boy. Guess what? Daddy's gone. While the cat's away, the mice will play" Said the Bubbler, standing on top of a bubble.
Adrien looks at the Bubbler with a strange expression until he realizes who he is.
"Nino?!" Asked Adrien. "The Bubbler's brought all yo homies together for one single-sole purpose, to ce-le-brate!" Declared the Bubbler. "Yeah!" Declared the classmates.
The Bubbler jumps down from the bubble into a DJ booth
"Let's get this party started!" Declared the Bubbler.
Everyone cheers. The Bubbler plays party music, and people start to dance. Adrien looks surprised and runs back into his house.
"Come on, everybody, I brought you here to party!" Declared the Bubbler.
Pan over the teens dancing, but looking sad.
"So dance or you'll join the adults up in the sky! Hahahahahahahaha!" Declared the Bubbler, as fireworks are shot. "It won't be long before Ladybug and Cat Noir show up to meet their doom! Mwahahahahahahaha!" Declared Hawk Moth, from his lair.
The Scene changes to Adrien's room. Adrien looks at his ring. Plagg climbs up to his shoulder.
"What's your problem? Relax! You're getting the party you've always wanted" Said Plagg. "But Nino's been akumatized! I've gotta help him" Said Adrien. "You may never get this chance again! C'mon, let's have a little fun while your father's away! Then we'll save Nino, trap his akuma, and all will be good" Said Plagg, as Adrien turns and looks sad. "Okay, you're right. This might be the first day in my life that I actually get to do what I want for once" Said Adrien.
The Scene changes to the Parisian Rooftops. Ladybug is running towards the fireworks.
"It's you and me, Bubbler" Said Ladybug.
Cut to the Agreste Mansion. Everyone is dancing and Adrien is enjoying himself.
"Yeah!" Declared Adrien, as he walks over to a sad-looking Rose. "Hey, nice party, I guess, since it's my first one" Said Adrien.
Rose smiles and gives him two thumbs up, then keeps dancing and looking sad. Adrien turns around and sees everyone dancing but with a grim expression. Cut to Chloé motioning Sabrina to do something near the DJ booth.
"I'm requesting a slow dance" Said Sabrina, frightened. "It's a bit early for that, isn't it?" Asked the Bubbler. "Ugh" Exclaimed Chloé.
Chloé shoves Sabrina down and puts on an innocent face.
"It's for Adrien. His first slow dance. Mm?" Asked Chloé, who makes a sweet face. "Oh! You know it, girl" Said the Bubbler.
He changes the music to a slow dance. People pair up and keep dancing and looking sad. Chloé walks up to Adrien.
"Is it me, or does everyone seem a bit weird?" Asked Adrien. "Forget about them, let's go dance! C'mon!" Declared Chloé.
Cut to the balcony. Ladybug watches the Bubbler going to change a record and at Chloé and Adrien dancing. Chloé tries to kiss him, but Adrien looks uncomfortable. Ladybug looks aghast.
"There is no way this is happening. Lucky Charm!" Declared Ladybug.
The Lucky Charm superpower gives her a record.
"A record?" Asked Ladybug.
Ladybug looks out and her thinking vision shows her the empty record spot in the DJ mixer, the volume modifier and a ledge on the building across the street. Ladybug chuckles, then throws the record. It hits the ledge, bounces over to the DJ booth, hits the volume all the way up, lands on the empty spot and begins to play dance music again. Everyone breaks their pairs and keeps dancing. Adrien moves away from Chloé. The Bubbler realizes that the music changed.
"Dude! Who just hijacked my mix?" Asked the Bubbler. "Yours truly" Said Ladybug, as her alarm sounds. "Better bug out quick before I change back to normal" Said Ladybug, before she jumps out of the balcony to the outside of Agreste Mansion. "Spots off" Said Ladybug.
She changes back to normal. Tikki comes out of the earrings and lands on her hands.
"Marinette!" Shouted Tikki. "It was an emergency" Said Marinette. "Yeah, if by emergency, you mean jealousy. You know what happens once you use your Lucky Charm. You only have minutes before..." Said Tikki. "I turn back, I know. But I figured, the Bubbler, he's not going anywhere, we have time to get you some food to get your energy back up. Then, we'll get right back out there, I promise" Said Marinette.
She puts Tikki in her purse, enters the party and starts looking around. She heads to the food table, grabs some cookies, and puts them in her purse for Tikki.
"I've got to find a place where I can transform, fast" Said Marinette. "Where have you been, girl? I was so scared something had happened to you" Said Alya. "Me too" Said Marinette, as they hug. "I'm sure Ladybug and Cat Noir will show up in a minute to save us all. They never failed us. Meanwhile, come with me, I've got something for you" Said Alya. "Uh, there's something I've got to do first" Said Marinette. "It's about Adrien" Said Alya. "Okay" Said Marinette. "Marinette, the Bubbler" Said Tikki, urgent. "Okay, okay, in a sec" Said Marinette.
She runs after Alya. Cut to Nathalie Sancoeur's office. Alya and Marinette sneak in. They see Marinette's gift on Nathalie's desk.
"Look! Now you can sign your gift" Said Alya, making Marinette gasp. "Ah, yes!" Declared Marinette.
Cut back outside. Hope is not dancing, and the Bubbler confronts him.
"Hey, you. Why aren't you having fun?" Asked the Bubbler. "Oh, trust me. It may not seem like I'm having fun. But I will be" Said Hope. "Really? Then how about I accelerate the process?" Asked the Bubbler
He chuckles and takes out his bubble sword. Cut back to Nathalie's office. Marinette is signing a post-it.
"Love, Marinette. There" Said Marinette.
Marinette sticks it to the present and gives the present a kiss.
"Right, we're good. Spots on, Marinette" Said Tikki. "I can't do it now, Alya's here" Said Marinette. "What'd you say?" Asked Alya. "Go ahead! I'll meet you in the yard" Said Marinette.
Alya leaves and Marinette lets out a sigh of relief. Behind her, a green bubble can be seen through the window
"No! You were right, Tikki, I never should've waited this long" Said Marinette.
Cut back to outside. The Bubbler and Hope are in a bubble sword/katana fight in the DJ Booth. Hope thrusts his katana at the Bubbler, who blocks by trapping the katana in the centre of his bubble sword. Hope then twists his katana against the bubble sword, twisting the Bubbler's wrist and arm, before he hit the Bubbler with the sheath of the katana knocking him back. Hope then kicked the Bubbler into the DJ Booth, with the Bubbler rolling over the DJ Booth and onto the ground below. Hope then sheathed his katana and put it on his hip, before gripping the collar of his hoodie.
"Heh" Muttered Hope, as he smiled.
Hope ripped off his hoodie, revealing light grey and lilac gauntlets and a short sleeve vest underneath. The Bubbler then stood up., as Ladybug can be seen on the roof.
"Dude! What are you going and killing the vibe for?" Asked the Bubbler. "Killing the vibe? Don't make me laugh! This is a carnival of misery. You think you can just kidnap every adult, and expect everything else to enjoy themselves? You must be heartless" Said Hope.
Ladybug throws her yo-yo. It hits the power strip and unplugs everything. Ladybug retracts her yo-yo, and then jumps down and stands in front of Hope.
"Sorry, Bubbler, but the party is over" Said Ladybug. "Why you both gotta be like that?" Asked the Bubbler. "You made all the adults disappear, that's why!" Declared Ladybug. "And now you force their children to partake in a party where those who would rebel shall join their parents in the sky. Madama Ladybug..." Said Hope.
Adrien runs into his house, as the crowd scatters.
"What is it, sir?" Asked Ladybug. "If you don't mind, I would like to help take down this villan" Said Hope, as he put a Seiken Sworddriver around his waist, with the sword having a green, plus shapped emblem. "What is that?" Asked Ladybug. "This is how I transform" Said Hope.
Hope held up two green books, one labeled Sarutobi Ninjaden and one labeled Kamaitachi Taifū. Hope then placed Sarutobi Ninjaden in the right slot, and Kamaitachi Taifū in the left slot, making the Sworddriver start playing some music.
"You've ruined my party!" Shouted the Bubbler. "Shut it" Said Hope.
He takes out his bubble sword and casts two bubbles at them, as Hope pulled the Sword out of the Swordriver, with it declaring "Hayate Battou! Kemuri Sarutobi Sasuke Taifū! Hayate Nisatsu! Ninja ga, kenzan to torikku no buki!" as a green tornado engulfs Hope and Ladybug, deflecting the bubbles. Cut to Adrien in his room.
"I think I've been a complete idiot" Said Adrien. "No. You were just enjoying your birthday" Said Plagg. "True... Anyway, let's save Nino. Plagg, claws out!" Declared Adrien
Adrien transforms into Cat Noir, as the green tornado disapated, revealing that Hope had transformed into Kamen Rider Kenzan, with the right arm being covered in green armor with a Kamaitachi engraving and its head making shoulder armour.
"Wow! What superhero are you?" Asked Ladybug. "My name is Hope. This form, if that is what you are referring to, is Kamen Rider Kenzan Sarutobi Kamaitachi, or Kenzan Smoke Sarutobi" Said Hope. "Why did you tell me your name? We're supposed to keep our identities a secret" Said Ladybug.
The Bubbler sends a barrage of bubbles at Hope and Ladybug, but Hope stands in front of Ladybug and cuts through each bubble before reversing his grip on the Fuusouken Hayate and striking the DJ Booth, making a cloud of smoke in front of him and Ladybug.
"There. Maybe we can speak now" Said Hope, turning around to Ladybug. "I can't know your secret" Said Ladybug. "You saw me transform. But, I do like the attempt at plausible deniability... Ladybug. I will not pry into your identity. I make this vow to you" Said Hope. "I understand" Said Marinette, nodding.
The smoke disappates, and The Bubbler shoots a large bubble at Ladybug and Hope. Ladybug throws her yo-yo at the bubble, but it just bounces back toward her. Cat Noir enters and hits the yo-yo with his staff, and the yo-yo goes up in the air
"Looks like I made it just in time" Said Cat Noir. "We had it under control, but thanks" Said Ladybug, as the yo-yo falls on Cat Noir's head. "Hello there" Said Hope. "Get the Miraculouses. I want those powers, NOW!" Declared Hawk Moth, from his lair to The Bubbler.
The Bubbler throws a stream of small red bubbles to Ladybug, Cat Noir and Hope, and they fight them. The Bubbler snaps his fingers, and the bubbles turn green and start circling around them, some sticking to them until they are all captured in one big bubble. Ladybug struggles against the bubble as the Bubbler laughs.
"Give me your Miraculouses before you run out of air" Said the Bubbler. "Dream on, Bubbler" Said Ladybug. "Total party poopers, just like adults" Said the Bubbler. "Kids need adults" Said Ladybug. "False! Kids need freedom, fun, let loose and live it up. Adults are controlling and bossy" Said the Bubbler. "You may be able to say that about a few adults, probably one you've interacted with recently, but that's not true about all of them" Said Hope. "He's right. Adults are supposed to keep children safe and protected. They care for their kids, they love them!" Declared Ladybug. "Most adults do anyhow" Whispered Adrien, to himself. "You must bring the adults back!" Declared Cat Noir. "Nope, never. Know what, since you care so much about these adults, why don't you go float with them for a while?" Asked the Bubbler.
He runs at them and kicks the bubble high up into the sky. Ladybug and Cat Noir scream and the teenagers gasp.
"What do you think you're doing Bubbler?! You're supposed to seize their Miraculouses!" Declared Hawk Moth, from his lair to The Bubbler.
The Scene changes to a green bubble up in the sky. Ladybug and Cat Noir are trying to burst the bubble as Hope leans back against the bubble, calm.
"Use your Cataclysm!" Shouted Ladybug. "Couldn't you have said that five hundred feet ago?" Asked Cat Noir. "We can't stay stuck in this bubble together forever" Said Ladybug.
Cat Noir smirks, Ladybug facepalms
"Hey, ah, what does this cataclysm entail?" Asked Hope. "Generally? The destruction of anything I touch" Said Cat Noir. "Oh no. Don't do that" Said Hope. "Do you have an alternative way down, Kenzan?" Asked Ladybug. "Hypothetically, suppose I managed to get the tip of my sword stuck outside the bubble and since my sword, Fuusouken Hayate, controls the wind, hypothetically we could steer this bubble back down to the ground, ensuring a safe landing" Said Hope. "Well, that sounds like a perfect situation" Said Cat Noir. "Perfect..." Said Hope.
Hope shuffles a little closer to Ladybug, and reveals the Fuusouken Hayate witch was behind his back, its tip sticking out of the bubble
"As well as entirely practical. We just need the right angle to get back down. I'd recommend... five degrees" Said Hope. "Why five degrees?" Asked Ladybug. "It puts enough distance between us and the Agreste Estate to attempt a sneak attack if he's stayed there" Said Hope. "Clever" Said Ladybug. "As per usual. Now, hold on tight. I'm gonna rock the bubble" Said Hope. "Cataclysm!" Declared Car Noir. "What the..." Said Hope.
Cat Noir touches the bubble and it bursts. They start falling and Hope shoves a third green book labeled Hayai Fox into the middle slot of the Sworddriver before putting the Fuusouken Hayate into the Swordriver.
"Should we see if you land on your feet this time?" Asked Ladybug. "No, thanks" Said Cat Noir. "Your stick, there!" Shouted Ladybug, as she points to the Eiffel Tower.
Hope pulls the Fuusouken Hayate out of the Sworddriver witch declared "Hayate Battou! Tani no kyōfū samuke o okuru tochi o tōshite! Grandmaster Sarutobi Sasuke! Hayate Sansatsu! Ninja shujin, kenzan kazetotomoni hisoka ni ansatsu suru teki!", as the centre of his armour became green with a fox head ingraving. Hope turned into a cloud of smoke, as Cat Noir throws his staff so hard it gets stuck in the Eiffel Tower. Ladybug takes his hand.
"Hang on!" Shouted Ladybug.
She throws her yo-yo. It catches around the Cat Noir's staff, and they swing and land safely.
"Good thing cats aren't afraid of heights" Said Cat Noir. "No, but competition seems to be this cat's breaking point" Said Hope. "What do you mean by that?" Asked Adrien. "You popped the bubble because I got close to Ladybug. I'm a hero before I'm a lover. I'd recommend picking up a similar philosophy, before you break this team up" Said Hope. "How do you..." Said Car Noir. "It's very obvious. You're into her. And that's as far as that goes" Said Hope. "We've got to get to his bubble sword, that's got to be where the akuma is" Said Ladybug. "Akuma?" Asked Hope. "A small white butterfly, turned black with darkness by Hawk Moth" Said Cat Noir. "Oh. Makes a lot more sense then daemons from Japan" Said Hope.
Cat Noir's ring alert sounds.
"Better hurry" Said Cat Noir.
The Scene changes to the front of Agreste Mansion. The Bubbler tries to get the party going again.
"Where is everybody? Get out here and party!" Declared the Bubbler.
Hope, Ladybug and Cat Noir appear from puffs of smoke on top of the Agreste Mansion.
"Sorry to burst your bubble" Said Ladybug. "But as I've told you before. This cannot continue" Said Hope, pointing the Fuusouken Hayate at the Bubbler. "Ladybug! Cat Noir!" Cheered Alya.
All the teens start to cheer them on.
"No one wants to party with you anymore, Bubbler" Said Ladybug. "What's wrong with all you guys!? Why you gotta be such haters!?" Asked the Bubbler. "If you didn't kidnap everyone's perents, then we wouldn't have a problem" Said Cat Noir. "Well said, Cat Noir" Said Hope.
The Bubbler grunts, takes out his bubble sword and captures all the teens in bubbles.
"NOOO!" Exclaimed Hope, Cat Noir and Ladybug. "Outer space is the next stop for your precious peeps, and they're never coming back!" Declared the Bubbler.
Hope splits the Fuusouken Hayate into two swords and gives one to Ladybug and the other to Car Noir.
"Bring as many back down to the ground as you can. I'll go after the Bubbler. Try to force the bubbles under something so they don't just float back up" Said Hope.
The Bubbler jumps from roof to roof and Hope pursues him. Ladybug and Cat Noir jump onto a bubble each and use their Fuusouken Hayates to blow the bubbles under bridges and overhanging rooftops. The Bubbler flies to the Eiffel Tower. Hope start running up the side of it while the Bubbler throws explosive bubbles at him. Cat Noir's ring alert sounds again. His icon shows that he is very close to switching back.
"I'm gonna switch back soon, Kenzan better hurry" Said Cat Noir. "Have faith in him. We need to get every bubble back to the ground, then we will meet up with him" Said Ladybug.
The Bubbler hits Hope in the chest with a exploding bubble, making him fall to the ground
"Ha ha! That will show that hater!" Declared the Bubbler, who turned away from the edge. "Don't think so!" Declared Hope, as he ran over the edge the Bubbler turned away from and kicked him in the back, making him tumble across the Eiffel Tower. "What!? But I say you..." Said the Bubbler. "That was a scarecrow. I'm a ninja grandmaster of the wind. I tell what you make where to go. You are barely a match for me" Said Hope.
The Bubbler frowns, and starts shooting more explosive bubbles at Hope, witch he ducks and dodges around while circling the Bubbler. Eventually the Bubbler tires, and finds out that he is surrounded by multiple copies of Hope. The real Hope then runs towards the Bubbler and steals the Bubbler's bubble sword, as some of the copies run in a clockwise circle around the Bubbler and Hope, as the rest run counter clockwise.
"Now, Bubbler. I wonder what you know about fulminology. Tell me, what happens when hot and cold air combine?" Asked Hope. "It makes lightning" Said the Bubbler. "Correct. Adieu" Said Hope, as he jumped out of the circle of clones.
The clones started making a trail of green air witch started to glow with blue lightning before they transformed into the lightning and closed in around the Bubbler, as Ladybug and Cat Noir arrived.
"Bonjor" Said Hope. "You did it" Said Cat Noir. "I hope there wasn't any doubt" Said Hope. "Absolutely not. You wanna trade?" Asked Ladybug. "If you don't mind, I think you two can give me one last swing" Said Hope, holding the bubble sword in front of himself. "Definitely" Said Cat Noir.
Cat Noir and Ladybug cut the sword into three peices with the Fuusouken Hayate, and Hope drops the handle piece onto the ground, as the lightning fizzles out, revealing an unconscious Nino. The akuma flies out of a piece of the sword, and Hope takes back both Fuusouken Hayates, making them one again.
"Get out of there, you nasty bug. No more evil-doing for you, little akuma" Said Ladybug.
She opens her yo-yo and it glows pink.
"Time to de-evilize!" Declared Ladybug.
She swings it around, captures the akuma and closes it.
"Gotcha" Said Ladybug.
She opens the yo-yo again and the akuma is purified.
"Bye-bye, little butterfly. Miraculous Ladybug!" Declared Ladybug.
She throws long pieces of wire up in the sky, and the Miraculous cleansing light returns every adult to safety. Nino wakes up and looks up at Ladybug, Cat Noir and Hope.
"Who? Dude" Said Nino.
Ladybug and Cat Noir go to bump their fists, but look up at Hope.
"Oh? Did you want me to join in?" Asked Hope. "Certainly. All members have to join in for the victory celebration" Said Ladybug. "Oh? Well, you say pound it whenever you win. Does that change for who ultimately defeats the villan?" Asked Hope. "Well, maybe we can try it out if you don't say something embarrassing" Said Cat Noir. "Trust me. I won't" Said Hope
Ladybug, Cat Noir and Hope bump their fists.
"Shutdown kanryō!" Declared Hope. "Shutdown kanyo!" Declared Ladybug and Cat Nior. "Ah. Close enough" Said Hope.
The Scene shifts to Hawk Moth's lair
"Another hero doesn't change anything. I will crush anyone who gets in my way!" Declared Hawk Moth.
His window screen closes. The Scene changes to Nathalie Sancoeur's Office.
"Nathalie? Did my son like his gift?" Asked Gabriel, on the intercom. "Actually, I was going to check right away sir" Said Nathalie. "Good" Said Gabriel, hanging up over the intercom.
Nathalie despairs, looks around, and takes Marinette's gift. She sighs, and crumples and throws Marinette's post-it note in the garbage. She goes to the dining room where Adrien is eating.
"A birthday present, from your father" Said Nathalie. "Thank you. I mean, please say thank you to my father for me" Said Adrien
Nathalie nods. Adrien looks happily at the gift. The Scene changes to Outside school.
"What do you mean not for a week?!" Yelled Chloé, screaming at Sabrina. "There were no adults yesterday to deliver it" Said Sabrina, scared. "So what? Ridiculous, utterly ridiculous!" Declared Chloé.
She storms inside, followed by Sabrina.
"Ha ha! Serves Chloé right" Said Alya, to Marinette and Hope. "Hey girls" Said Adrien.
He gets out of the limousine, wearing a scarf
"Hey, that's my scarf! He's wearing my scarf" Said Marinette, to Alya and Hope. "He has a limo?" Asked Hope. "Hey, dude" Said Adrien, to Nino. "Yo, nice scarf, Adrien. Off the chain" Said Nino. "Yeah, can you believe my dad got this for me? He's so awesome. He's been giving me the same lame pen for three years in a row" Said Adrien, as Marinette looks surprised. "Wow, I guess anyone can change. Adults can be cool when you least expect it" Said Nino. "Today's revelation, everyone" Said Hope, to himself. "Speaking of adults, I know my father said you were a bad influence, but..." Said Adrien. "We're good, Adrien, don't sweat it. We're buds. Always and forever" Said Nino. "You gotta tell him you were the one who knitted the scarf" Said Alya, to Marinette. "But he seems so happy about his dad. I don't want to spoil it for him" Said Marinette. "Aw, Marinette. You're amazing, girl. You know that, right? And someday Adrien will figure it out too. Promise" Said Alya, as she and Marinette hug. "Yeah. Everything will work out if you have faith" Said Hope.
The bell rings and everyone walks in.
