Chloé tore her gaze away from the street that was being filled with hundreds of shadows. She couldn't look at it anymore. It made her sick and anxious, especially when she knew it was up to the heroes of Paris to fix it and she was included in that group.

"Well. I guess things doesn't always go as planned." Viperion said and tried to cheer her up.

She turned around and gave him a annoyed glare.

"This is a mess." Chloé said and walked away from the edge of the roof. "I can't believe this is the first akumatized villain we are going to face in three years."

"Are you afraid?" Viperion asked.

"I'm afraid for the sake of the people of Paris." Chloé said. "This must be terrifying for them."

"Yeah, I guess that's true. But that's why we have to be brave. If we fail, we fail them."

Chloé thought about her sister and father. They were out there somewhere, at least she hoped they were. She didn't want to think that they had been taken by Shadow Mirror and was currently one of the shadows that was falling from the sky and landing down on the street. They had to be safe.

"They will get up from the basement any moment now. Did you send them a message?" Chloé asked Viperion who quickly nodded. "I guess we will just wait and see what happens."

Chloé looked down on the street again and tried to figure out in which building the heroes were at. She hadn't found out about it from Ladybug, but she guessed it didn't really matter.

"It's starting to look like a mess down there and if we can't see Shadow Mir-" Viperion started but Chloé interupted him.

"You saw that he was going to catch me with his mirror, though. How did you do that?"

"Oh." Viperion said. "The sun reflected on it. I almost got blinded looking at it, but I realised what was about to happen before it was too late."

Chloé nodded.

She had been moments away from becoming a shadow herself and for a strange reason, that didn't frighten her as much as she thought it would. She still had hope in Ladybug and the rest of the heroes. Even if it felt a little bit hopeless, she knew they would succeed. They would win over Shadow Mirror and any other villain Hawk Moth would send to them to fight.

"There they are." Viperion said.

Chloé hurried to the edge of the roof and looked down at the street. She could see most of the heroes running out of a door on a building on the other side of the street. Each hero jumped away in different directions and no one went toward the area were the shadows were still falling down on the ground.

"So, are we just waiting or-" Viperion said but went quiet when someone landed on the same roof the two of them were at.

"Queen Bee, Viperion. Nice work." King Monkey said and seemed to actually mean it.

Chloé turned to King Monkey.

"What's the plan?" she asked.

"Try to figure out where the akuma is." King Monkey said without a second of thought.

"Nice to know that you pay attention once in a while." Chloé muttered.

"What do you mean by that?" King Monkey asked and sounded hurt.

"I don't think it's typical for you to pay attention to much of the things that are being said." Chloé explained.

"Well, I do pay attention." King Monkey told her in a annoyed tone.

"I'm proud of you." Chloé said.

"Hey, can you guys focus?" Viperion said and walked over to Chloé and lowered his voice so only she could hear him. "What are you doing?"

"Nothing." Chloé said.

Viperion gave her an odd look that she had never seen him give her before. It was the same kind of look that people used to give her in the past whenever she made a scene. It didn't feel right seeing that look on Viperion and she instantly regretted her choice of words when she had spoken to King Monkey seconds ago.

"Any idea where the akuma can be?" Chloé wondered and looked directly at King Monkey.

"Ladybug guessed that it was in his mirror. But the problem is that Shadow Mirror is holding his mirror and if you touch it you gets dragged into it." King Monkey explained.

Chloé nodded and felt even more guilty now when it was clear to her that King Monkey had paid attention to what had been said while the heroes had been in the basement. Chloé wasn't sure when she was going to apologize, but she knew she had to do it.

"It's a shame Chat Noir changed sides. His Cataclysm would have been perfect now." Chloé said and got looks from both Viperion and King Monkey that she ignored. "I'm just saying."

"Ladybug said that too. But he's not here. We just have to work with what we have." King Monkey explained.

"Got it." Chloé said and walked up to the edge of the roof again.

"Ladybug wanted you to use Second Chance whenever you think the time is right." King Monkey told Viperion as the two of them walked up to Chloé.

"Okay." Viperion said when he stopped next to Chloé.

Chloé looked down on the street and all of the shadows that was gathering in the middle of it. It truly felt like a nightmare watching it all happen in front of her and when it got to much for her she looked away and noticed that most of the heroes stood on top of different buildings close by.

"Have you seen Chat Noir yet?" Chloé wondered.

"No." King Monkey answered. "No Chat Noir, Hawk Moth or Mayura."

Chloé nodded and looked toward the place Ladybug were at.

Ladybug stood on a roof together with Rena Rouge. The two of them was looking down on the street and all of the shadows while they seemed to be talking with each other. None of them looked happy, but that was understandable. No one would be happy in this situation.

Chloé glanced toward Viperion next to her. He was looking down on the street below and seemed much more relaxed than what she herself felt that she was at that moment. He turned toward her when he felt her gaze on him, but Chloé didn't look away as she thought she would.

Viperion's green eyes met her blue ones and for a tiny moment it felt like time stopped. Her heart was starting to beat faster in her chest, and she knew it wasn't because of fear or anything close to that.

"That's the signal." King Monkey said and jumped down on the ground below.

Both Chloé and Viperion turned away from each other and looked toward the roof Ladybug stood at. She was holding a red object with black spots in her hand and Chloé knew she had just used her Lucky Charm. Chloé couldn't see what kind of object it was from the distance she was standing on, but she knew that whatever it was that it would be helpful.

Ladybug looked around for a few seconds before she quickly turned to Rena Rouge and said a few words. When Ladybug ran away and disappeared, Rena Rouge jumped down from the roof and headed toward the place all of the shadows were at.

"I guess it's time." Viperion said to Chloé.

"Yeah." Chloé said and turned to Viperion. "Be careful, okay?"

Viperion's green eyes looked at her with surprise for a moment before a reassuring look showed up in them.

"You too, Queen Bee." Viperion said and jumped down to the ground.

Chloé took a deep breath before she jumped down from the roof and landed on the street. She barely had any time to prepare herself before a shadow showed up in front of her. For a tiny moment she wondered if she would end up becoming a shadow as well if she touched them, but she noticed that all of the other heroes was fighting shadows without becoming one and Chloé didn't hesitate to start fighting that shadow in order to get closer to Shadow Mirror, who was still up in the air somewhere and letting more shadows fall down on the ground.

Chloé fought the shadow without any trouble and felt all of the powers she got from being Queen Bee make her even stronger for each passing moment. She had thought that she needed to practice, or at least train a little to get back into shape. But being a Miraculous holder was like knowing how to ride a bike, it wasn't something she could ever forget how to do.

She fought another shadow and succeded to throw it far away from her so that she could move closer to the middle of the fight where she knew most of the other heroes were heading toward as well. But just like her they were all in the middle of fighting shadows and barely moved a bit before yet another shadow showed up and stopped them.

Chloé wished she had powers that made it possible for her to fly. That would have made things so much easier for her to reach Shadow Mirror and put an end to his terror. That, and also because she thought it would have been amazing to be able to fly.

Another shadow jumped in front of her and this time she grabbed the shadow and threw it away, but apparently not the right way. The shadow landed in front of Carapace who had just managed to get away from a shadow and looked quite surprised to see the shadow come flying and land in front of him.

"Sorry!" Chloé shouted to Carapace when it looked like he realised what had happened and figured out that Chloé had caused it.

Carapace sighed before the shadow ran toward him and he started fighting it right away.

Chloé managed to run for a short moment toward Shadow Mirror before a few shadows showed up in front of her and made her stop. She looked at them and realised that they were too many for her to fight on her own, so she turned around and headed toward another area where there wasn't that many shadows.

She ended up next to Pegasus who seemed to struggle quite a bit with fighting off the shadows that got in his way. Chloé tried to help him the best she could and he even seemed quite thankful that she was by his side at that moment.

When there was a tiny moment of no shadows among the two of them Pegasus quickly turned to Chloé.

"The akuma is most likely in the mirror." Pegasus said.

"I guessed so too." Chloé said.

"Do you see where Shadow Mirror is?" Pegasus asked.

Chloé looked toward the falling shadows. She couldn't see Shadow Mirror, but she knew he was there. What she could see though was something blinking up there everytime the sun shined on it the right way.

"Do you see that blinking up in the sky?" Chloé asked Pegasus.

"Yes." Pegasus quickly said. "That must be the mirror."

A shadow came running towards them and Chloé quickly grabbed it and threw it away from them. But this time she made sure that she didn't throw it toward any of the other heroes.

"I can create a portal above Shadow Mirror that you can go through and then use Venom to make him stop moving." Pegasus said while fighting off a shadow.

Before Chloé had a chance to say anything a shadow came running up to her and grabbed her. The shadow dragged her to the ground and held her there. She tried to push the shadow off from her, but was unsuccessful in her atempt. When the shadow reached for her head where her Miraculous was she started panicking and screamed.

A second before the shadow touched her Miraculous the shadow flew off from her and she quickly stood up. She saw the shadow fly away and her gaze fell on the hero that had saved her.

"Are you alright?" Viperion asked.

"Yes." Chloé said and touched her Miraculous to make sure it was still there.

"What did Pegasus say?" Viperion asked.

Chloé turned around to look where Pegasus was, but noticed that he was gone. She found him a moment later, fighting side by side with King Monkey and Polymouse.

"He's going to create a portal for me to use so that I can use Venom on Shadow Mirror." Chloé quickly explained.

"I see." Viperion said and eyed his bracelet.

A shadow came running towards Chloé, but its path was quickly blocked with Viperion who put himself between the two of them. Viperion fought the shadow and succeeded in throwing it away from them a few moments later.

"Go to Pegasus and see what the plan is." Viperion said as another shadow came running up to him.

"Oh. Okay." Chloé said and started backing away even if she wanted to stay and fight with Viperion to make sure he was going to be fine, but she had to put those thoughts away for now.

She turned around and made her way over to the place Pegasus and the others were at. She was lucky that no shadow came up to her to block her path and make her fight even more. She was lucky, but the rest of the heroes was starting to look quite tired by now.

"Where is Ladybug?" Chloé muttered to herself as she was steps away from Pegasus and the others.

Chloé hadn't seen Ladybug since she left the roof seconds before the other heroes went down to the street. Ladybug had yet to return to end this fight and fix all the damage that had been done in Paris so far by Shadow Mirror.

"Pegasus!" Chloé said as she got to him. "What's the plan?"

Pegasus managed to get away from the shadow he was fighting, with a tiny bit of help from King Monkey. When Pegasus was free he turned to Chloé and gave her a long look while he seemed to be thinking.

"When the time is right I'm going to create a portal that takes you above Shadow Mirr-"

"When the time is right?" Chloé asked and pushed a shadow away from her and Pegasus.

"That's what Ladybug said." Pegasus explained.

Chloé looked around and tried to figure out when the time would be right. The heroes were starting to look tired and a few of them even seemed to struggle in their fights. If this went on much longer at least one hero would loose their Miraculous, Chloé was sure about that.

"If we wait for any longer, we won't make it." Chloé said and didn't hide how desperate she was.

Pegasus looked around and seemed to realise why Chloé sounded so distressed. When he turned back to her, he just gave her a sad but unsure look.

"Just a few more minutes. I'm sure everyone will manage." Pegasus said.

Chloé didn't have a chance to say anything before a shadow came running toward her. She kicked it and made it fall down on the ground before she quickly moved away. As she was moving around on the street, she was looking around to see if someone was in any danger.

Most of the heroes seemed to have someone by their side, which made them not have to battle that much on their own. Even if that helped, most of the heroes looked almost on the edge of giving up. There was fire in their eyes, but that was not enough to keep them standing.

Chloé looked toward the place where Shadow Mirror were at. He hadn't moved one inch and none of the heroes were any close to him. She hated to admit it, but Hawk Moth had really improved his game this time around.

"Now!" a familiar voice screamed.

Chloé turned around and saw Ladybug come flying down towards her. She barely had any time to think about what she was going to do, but she still managed to do her part.

"Venom!" Chloé screamed.

A portal opened behind Chloé and she quickly turned around and jumped into it one moment before Ladybug followed her.

Chloé fell down from the other side of the portal that was above Shadow Mirror and pointed her Venom toward where she thought Shadow Mirror was at. She knew that Ladybug was behind her and felt like this was it. Chloé was inches away from Shadow Mirror when he turned around and pointed his mirror up, towards her.

Chloé screamed as she fell into the mirror and got traped inside it.
