'Very good, Rena Rogue' the voice of Shadow Moth sounded. 'The heroes seem to be fooled by your illusions. Now it's time to reap your prize. Open it!'

'Yes, Shadow Moth' Rena Rogue said. She pushed the right spools and revealed the Miracle... Egg. Then, she pressed on a green spot on it. With her hands shaking with excitement, she grabbed the Turtle Miraculous. 'May I go and give it to its rightful owner now?'

'One more thing, Rena Rogue. First, you must bring me the rest, like we agreed.'

'Of course, Shadow Moth. I'm on my way.'

Enhanced illusion gave Rena Rogue ability to go invisible, and undetected. Meanwhile her other illusion was climbing onto Liberty, where it would probably be spotted by the heroes. Unlike standard illusions, this one wasn't going to dissolve under simple touch. Perks of the akuma, she thought.

There was a crow sentimonster waiting in scheduled place. Rena Rogue passed the Miracle Egg to it and watched it fly away. Then she sprinted away to Nino's place. She disguised herself as Ladybug and dropped on his balcony.

Nino looked surprised, seeing Ladybug knocking at his balcony door. And even more shocked when she held out a little box to him.

'Nino Lahiffe' she said. 'I am sorry. I was harsh and wrong in my judgement, and I made a grave mistake in telling you that you can't be Carapace ever again. Will you accept my apology, along with having you permanently hold on to the Turtle Miraculous?'

'Dude!' Nino exclaimed. 'How- whoa! Of course I will, did you expect anything else? All of us are harsh sometimes, no worries!' he eagerly grabbed the box.

'Phew, that's a relief!' "Ladybug" smiled. 'Thank you. I'll call you when I need your help. Bug out!'

Rena Rogue dropped down from the balcony. She ducked into an alley.

'Thank you, Shadow Moth' she said.

'You're welcome, Rena Rogue. I have received my prize as well. Are you ready to release the akuma?'

'Yes, Shadow Moth. I have done all that I wanted.'

A purple butterfly flew out of her necklace and shed its darkness as it fluttered away. Alya watched it in disbelief, looked at her hands, looked at the place where she was standing...

'What have I done?' she gasped.

Meanwhile the sentimonster reached its destination. Shadow Moth smiled at the Miracle Egg in her hands. She flipped it over and finally found the compartment that the translated files mentioned.

'Duusu, divide' she said with a smile. 'Nooroo, dark wings fall.'

The kwamis looked at Nathalie in shock, then at the Miracle Egg.

'Duusu. You were a great partner' Nathalie stroked the kwami's head. 'But now, I renounce you.'

She took off the Peacock Miraculous. She then reached for the Rabbit Miraculous.

'Fluff' she flashed the kwami a smile. 'Clockwise.'
