"What do you mean I have to work with her? She's the enemy, isn't she Chief"
"Narue, I understand your concerns but now's the perfect time for us to solve that mystery once and for all."
Narue pouted, Mia rolled her eyes.
"Just a reminder, I'm not your lacky."
"Which is why she can't be trusted. She's the enemy." Narue said while still holding Mia tightly.
"Oh really I am. Have you already forgotten you've died and the only reason why you're now alive is because I specifically used the Ladybug Miraculous to revert all relevant Miraculous related changes?"
Narue gritted her teeth. This wasn't totally unexpected. As soon as Mia used the Ladybug Miraculous's secondary active superpower to do the following as stated above, which is what the secondary active power does, a sigh of relief came from the Chief as fortunately for them, Narue's death happened to fall under the category of being considered a Miraculous related change, possibly concerning Mia's wish or rather the cancellation of it. But what exactly, the Chief pondered. It didn't matter though because as soon as Narue woke up, which she did so immediately, she immediately transformed and grabbed Mia threatening to crush her like a grape if she didn't let Chijinda go.
"Are you fucking crazy? Chijinda's gone mad!"
"Lies! I won't hear it!"
"Uh, actually Narue…" the Chief began, "You should take a look at this."
Narue played the news clips using the communication device stored in her Miraculous tool.
"See? I told you he's gone loco." Mia taunted.
"Shut up. That Red Fox maniac must be one of your sentimonsters."
"As if I would ever do that. Why would I bring you back to life? You'd just destroy my sentimonster had I created one and besides, he's tearing up the place. I want to rule the world, not destroy it. You and know both quite well I would never be so stupid to give my sentimonsters their amokitized items."
"Back to life? What are you talking about?" Narue demanded.
"You died, that's what she means," the Chief explained. Narue continued to glare at Mia.
"I need you two to work together for now."
"But why do I have to work with her?" Narue complained.
"Hey! If I had it my way I wouldn't be allying myself with you, brat." Mia answered. "It's just that for whatever reason Chijinda has become more powerful than ever before."
"Yes, and as we can all see, that extra power comes at the cost of his sanity. Look at him. He's turned into a bloodthirsty monster, a supermonster."
"A supermonster?"
The Chief nodded and Narue gripped Mia tighter in kind.
"If what you're saying is true, then I will do whatever is in my power to bring him back."
"You won't be able to do that on your own. Now release her before I use my Miraculous superpower on you." Erika threatened.
"Narue. Please let her go. We need her."
Narue breathed.
"They can't possibly be doing this out of the kindness of their heart," Narue complained.
"Of course we aren't. Once Chijinda is back to normal our temporary alliance will end." Erika explained.
"I don't get it. You want to help us return Chijinda back to himself? Why would you do that? Don't you hate him."
"By hell I do! I want to see him smeared on the dirt squished like a worm." Mia shouted.
"What did she demand?" Narue asked. The Chief shooked his head.
"She didn't demand anything. All I did was offer her a deal and it's one I intend to keep."
"And what's that Chief?"
"In return for helping us to bring Chijinda You back to his senses, I will do whatever is in my power to clear their names."
"Th-that's illegal. You'd be tampering with-"
"I know, but what other choice do we have? Now, please do as Erika asks and let Mia go."
Narue grunted. It took some more prodding but finally Narue set Mia down.
"Let me get this straight. There's this pink butterfly that can give the average citizen superpowers and it's drawn by strong emotions?" Mia asked as she ran.
"Yes." Narue answered.
"Huh. Sounds familiar."
"Should be. Anyways the only reliable way to remove Chijinda's extra power is to find where that pink butterfly is hiding." the Chief explained.
"Can't we try talking to him?" Narue suggested.
"No can do. At his current state he's no longer receiving."
"Meaning the only way to bring him back is with a good pounding. I like that." Mia chimed. "Wait. I thought only Miraculous holders could deal with other Miraculous holders."
"That's what I thought too. Mia, as soon as Chijinda's pink butterfly is released I'll need you to capture it with your yo-yo." the Chief stated.
"Why?"
"if that pink butterfly turns out to be what I think it is, your yo-yo should be able to identify it and from there, purify it."
"And what are you expecting?" Mia asked.
"I expect that pink butterfly isn't pink. It's purple and black."
"Just a reminder. My Miraculous yo-yo can only purify-"Mia's eyes opened in shock. No way… another Miraculous holder? Could that be possible?
"Over there! (points far off into the distance where the silhouette of a bipedal fox can be seen ripping through a platoon of heavily armed soldiers) This is as far as I can take you. Deal with him how you see fit." the Chief said.
"Ha! It will be my pleasure to smack his skull into the pavement of Sense!" Mia shouted as Erika punched the air. Another portal formed and into battle the 3 did arrive.
Location: Somewhere in Japan
The Red Fox drooled as he took his time to savor the people's fears. Blood dripped from his hands, not his blood but the blood of countless people he had just slaughtered. Now… who to kill next?
The fires raged on as the Red Fox slowly made his way forward. This young school girl will do nicely. The Red Fox leaned in with his right hand-
"Hey why don't you pick on someone who can actually fight, you piece of shit!"
Oof!
Mia's dropkick surprised the Red Fox.
Mia uses a smoke grenade. The Red Fox coughs.
"How do you like that?" Mia taunted.
"Hmph! All it's done is quicken your doom." the Red Fox replied. "Once I'm done killing you all those people are next."
"What people?" At this point the smoke had cleared up. The Red Fox roared with rage. No! He had been teleported.
"Don't worry. I have no plans to run away this time."
The Red Fox nodded.
"Alright then. Let's settle this."
Mia nodded.
"I would very much like to, but first I think there's someone you need to see." As if by cue Nareu stepped into view.
The Red Fox's eyes grew wide as he took a few steps back.
"I-impossible. She's dead. Narue died, I-I saw it- No! This isn't real! (turns back to face Mia) You think you can mislead me with your parlor tricks! I won't have it! How dare you make a mockery of her. Her death wasn't enough for you? Fine. I'll destroy you and your sentimonster. Begone!"
Boss: The Red Fox Chijinda You (rematch)
Mia fires her hand gun.
But it was just an illusion.
"When will you ever learn?"
The Red Fox kicks Mia from behind.
238 dmg
Mia fires her hand gun.
But it was just an illusion. Sensing an attack from behind Mia does a couple of backflips before swinging her yo-yo in a large arc. Damn! Where is he? Did he turn himself invisible?
!
Without thinking Mia dived forwards before doing a side flip to her left and then to her right.

So not only is he invisible, he also made all his attacks invisible as well. How am I going to find him?
"Didn't think you had in you Chijinda. Didn't know you were such a coward."
"I am not a coward."
"Yes you are. You refuse to accept the truth before your eyes."
"You're just stalling for time."
"And you just don't want to accept it."
The Red Fox scoffed.
"Ha. Nice try but I wasn't born yesterday."
Damn! He's not saying that one phrase, which can only mean this extra power does not prevent him from prematurely ending his mirage. If I can get him to say it, I should be able to subdue him.
Something invisible hits Mia.
90 dmg
Mia throws a smoke grenade.
I hear coughing. Either that's an illusion- no. He's definitely coughing but I can't pinpoint his location.
Narue stomps the ground causing Mia and potentially the Red Fox to fly high in the air. Course seeing how the Red Fox is psychic, he could just be propelling himself along using his psycho powers.
Mia throws a whole batch of compact grenades.
19 dmg
18 dmg
Those human-like gaps in the explosions. As I expected, he may be invisible but he isn't intangible. And seeing how he didn't reflect them back I've got an ideal-
"Eat a load of this Chijinda!"
Mia unloaded the rest of her compact grenades.
"Ha! Did you think that same trick would've worked twice on me?"

Mia felt something or rather someone grab her wrists. Damn! If he wasn't invisible I could launch an effective counterattack. Only one thing I can do n-

Mia's eyes opened in shock. He- he just kneed me.

He's… reaching for my Miraculous!
Mia kicks the invisible menace on top of her.
Thud
Okay, I don't know where I hit him but that should give me enough time to recuperate.
Mia hops backwards.
Narue stomps the ground.
All normal sized battle contestants are flying high now.
Mia eats a melon bread

Mia is now at 700 Hp.
The Red Fox started laughing. This was it. She was going to die. Now there was nothing left. Mia- I tried to avenge you, I thought if I could beat him, all I've done so far wouldn't be in vain. Alas that is not my story. If we ever meet again, if there's an afterlife or if I ever reincarnate, I hope to be by your side.
"Reality!"
The Red Fox suddenly appeared. Before he could remedy his mistake however he found himself surrounded by a sphere of light. It was only for a brief moment for then after he heard-
"Cataclysm!"
The red color faded from the Red Fox as he reverted back to his normal form. Yeou Lujeu sat in a daze. What just happened? Around him Narue, now detransformed, along with Mia and Erika still transformed stood. Narue sniffled a tear before lowering her hand.
"Welcome back, Chijinda-kun."
"N-Narue. Wha-what happened?"
Ugh. Get a room you two lovebirds, Mia thought to herself.
A pink butterfly started floating off.
"Oh no you don't!"
Mia threw out her yo-yo.
"I don't know what sort of creature you are but you've caused us enough trouble."
The pink butterfly instinctively tries to dodge.
"Time to de-evilize!"
The yo-yo catches the pink butterfly.
With this pink butterfly I will now have enough power to place Chijinda and his friends where they belong.
Mia scowled.
"Forget it, I have no need of your services."
Mia felt a sharp pain. Looking over at her yo-yo she gasped as she saw the pink fog which was starting to form when she caught the pink butterfly had flashed and now was becoming dark purple. A cloud of purple and black.
Miku, Miku, Miku
"Wha-what is that?!"
Mia staggered backwards as she desperately tried to regain her composure.
They've hurt me, hurt me, hurt me.
"No! What's going on here?!"
Revenge, revenge, revenge.
Mia screamed and as she did so the dark purple energy coursed its way down the yo-yo line towards her.
It's right, it's right, it's right.
Mia grasped her head screaming her eyes out. Erika covered her mouth. Narue jumped back while Chijinda could only stare. By the way, at this point Chijinda was so exhausted that he just detransformed back and so-
Now's the time, the time, the time.
Mia started weeping
Let's finish him, finish him, finish him
Trixx floated there in absolute terror.
"Wayzz was right."
Erika turned to face the fox kwami. That kwami must know something.
"That's an akuma!"
An akuma?! Shit! Then that means-
Erika stood confused.
"Explain to me, kwami. What is an akuma?"
Trixx coughed before continuing.
"Akumas are the butterfly minions of the Butterfly Miraculous holder. They are created from ordinary butterflies being infused with the superpower of the Butterfly Miraculous, that of super empowering. They're supposed to be used for creating superheroes, but…"
But we're already villains- wait a minute. Wasn't there some guy who-
"No! I refuse! I don't want it! Go away!"
?
"You think you understand me? I don't."
The dark purple energy started retreating backwards.
"So you're an akuma is that it?"
The dark purple energy retreated further.
"Then that means that pink haired loon is one of us."
The dark purple energy retreated even further.
"Tell your friend this message."
By now the dark purple energy had ceded back halfway down Mia's yo-yo line.
"Udaspes Folus has messed with the wrong girl."
Now the dark purple energy only bubbled at Mia's yo-yo.
"I will stop you, you monster."
A loud swirling sound could be heard. Mia's yo-yo sucked the rest of the dark purple energy in.
"Aaugh!"
Mia looked like she was straining but still she kept on, now glaring til at last she felt her arm go limb. Collapsing to the ground her yo-yo did as well and out came a butterfly, drifting away.
"Don't worry about that one," Trixx explained. "That's just a normal butterfly now."
Chijinda nodded. They've helped us but now it's time to-
Before Chijinda could even get the chance to subdue Mia and her friend, Erika had already wrapped her left arm around her while she punched the ground. Drats! They've teleported again.
"Ch-Chijinda."
Chijinda looked embarrassed.
"Huh. Guess even I'm susceptible to getting akumatized."
Narue sniffled before smiling.
"But don't you worry. For I won't let that happen again. Yes, now I'm stronger than ever."
After this the Chief explained to me what had happened. Narue had died and in my depression I had been akumatized. Things had gotten so out of hand that the Chief was forced to beg the only remaining members of the Advance Sciences Society for help. In return for returning me back to normal he would then do whatever was in his power to clear their names. This could only mean-
"But Chief. They're criminals. Why would you-"
I stopped. He looked like he had enough. I guess I can't blame him, after all it's like they say. Desperate times call for desperate measures. I'll just have to be more careful from here on out.
Oh and Udaspes Folus? Wherever you are, we will find you. We will find you and defeat your every schemes and most importantly of all don't forget this.
We will take your Miraculous.
