Ben woke up to find that he was back to being himself and was laying in front of the unconscious forms of Ladybug, Cat Noir, and Lucky Girl with Frightningale nowhere to be seen.
"Ugh what happened." thought Ben. It was then that he looked at his wrist to see that the Omnitrix was just a badge on his wrist and was sparking off some pink electricity when he tried to touch it.
Ben also noticed that they weren't in Paris anymore but in a place that looks like it is made of Diamonds as well as all of the pink statues being there along with them.
"Oh man." was all Ben said as he realized that he wasn't on Earth anymore.
Ben knew he was screwed as soon as he woke up on this strange world but what made him knew he was even more screwed was that the Omnitrix was messed up and all of the other heroes were waking up and right about to discover his secret identity.
Desperately Ben repeatedly slapped the Omnitrix as Ladybug started to stir. "Come on work any alien! I don't care even Ghostfreak would work just-" Ben was cut off as a flash of green light surrounded him and when it dissipated he was now Ghostfreak.
Ghostfreak looked at himself to check for any abnormalities (well any that weren't usually there on him. He is a strange ghost alien that is capable of gaining a separate mind from Ben's and escaping the Omnitrix.) He looked normal except that the Omnitrix was still green and sparking a little bit of pink lightning within his chest bt he wasn't feeling it.
"Woah. Even I'm freaked out about this and I'm the one that usually does the freaking out of others." thought Ghostfreak to himself.
Ladybug got up to see Cat Noir and Lucky Girl unconscious. She went down to Cat Noir holding his face.
"Cat Noir please wake up!" pleaded Ladybug. She slapped his face and that got him awake shouting "Ouch!"
Cat Noir looked around and asked "M'lady where are we?"
"I don't know." Ladybug replied.
"We're on another world." said Ghostfreak scaring the heck out of Cat Noir who leapt into Ladybug's arms.
"What the heck is that!?" cried Cat Noir
Ladybug dropped him and said "There isn't any reason to be afraid (or at least there shouldn't be she mentally added) Cat Noir this is the alien hero."
"Oh so this is the creepy ghost form you were telling me about." said Cat Noir regaining his composure and apologizing "Heh sorry I got scared about you. You just look like-" "- A Ghost." said Ghostfreak finishing his sentence.
"yeah" replied Cat Noir.
Lucky Girl began to wake up and as she got up she noticed Ghostfreak and was taken aback a bit until she realized it was Ben and not the villain.
"Weren't you Eye Guy just a moment ago?" asked Lucky Girl still not fully awake.
"I was but who knows how long we've been out. And that should be the least of our concerns at the moment." answered Ghostfreak.
"Why's that?" asked Lucky Girl
"Um cause we're apparently on an alien planet." said Cat Noir still trying to wrap his head around this.
That statement snapped Lucky Girl back to reality and she took in her surroundings. "Wow um I think we're maybe on Diamondhead's home world. I mean it is made of crystals."
"Yeah that's a good assumption." replied Ghostfreak.
The ground began to shake catching everyone's attention. "Does this world usually get earthquakes?" asked Cat Noir
"No clue never been here before." replied Ghostfreak
"Um guys I don't think that's an earthquake." said Ladybug pointing to the horizon.
Everyone looked to see a stampede of Wildmutts approaching but something about them wasn't right. Their fur was white instead of orange and they each had two giant rainbow colored pigtails. They were also being led by none other than Frightningale whom was riding the one in the front whilst cackling to herself.
"Run!" shouted Lucky Girl as she formed a mana board underneath her feet and rode it away like a hoverboard. Ghostfreak followed by floating and Ladybug and Cat Noir on foot.
"Why are they chasing us!" said Cat Noir.
"Vupimancers are carnivores. They're probably hunting us. But as for the crazy look I can't explain." said Ghostfreak.
Suddenly the Omnitrix's pink lightning crackle worsened and began hurting Ghostfreak. He hissed at the pain and writhed in pain on the ground as the lightning spread over him. Unfortunately his pain wasn't going to stop soon and the vulpimancers were gaining ground.
Lucky Girl circled back to get him before the Vulpimancers but she wasn't fast enough and they arrived before her. Ladybug and Cat Noir followed and both of them knew this meant a confrontation was inevitable.
Surprisingly instead of trying to chew Ghostfreak apart the Vulpimancers stopped at Frightningale's command. She (still on her Vulpimancer) trotted up to Ghostfreak who was no longer in pain but gasping for breath.
"Well well well. Looks like I've got you to thank for this incredible new world to mold in my image then." said Frightningale without rhyming.
"Me? What are you talking about?" questioned Ghostfreak as he resumed floating.
"Well I thought you would know. You were the one that sent us here silly." replied Frightningale.
"I didn't send us here why would I?" spat Ghostfreak clearly frustrated. Lucky Girl landed by his side and her platform disappeared.
"Well it was the thing on your chest that exploded into pink light. Then the next thing I know I'm here in control of these monster dogs." replied Frightningale.
Ghostfreak realized that it must have been a glitch in the Omnitrix that sent them here. But since the Omnitrix doesn't have the power to teleport (Or at least not that he knew of) it could only mean one thing. They were trapped inside the watch in its environment simulation area which would explain the Wildmutt's on Petropia.
Ghostfreak leaned towards Lucky Girl and moved his eye towards her. "You don't think we're stuck in the watch again do you?" he asked
"Probably are I mean how else would the Wildmutts get here" whispered Lucky Girl back to him.
"What you guys talking about huh? It wouldn't be the secrets of manipulating reality now would it? Because it seems that that device in your chest has done just that. And imagine what I could do with a device that powerful! I could make everyone sing and dance and live in harmony. More importantly I could eliminate that brat Chloe Bourgeois." growled Frightningale as Ladybug and Cat Noir arrived
Frightningale no longer seemed to be the rhyming statue making villain she once was but now seemed more bent on world domination and ultimate power. Ghostfreak assumed it must have been the blast that warped her mind even further than being akumatized did. Either that or it worsened her akumatization somehow.
"Listen I think we need to get going so as soon as I turn into Upgrade I need you to do the spell that got us out of here last time" whispered Ghostfreak prior to moving his eye back into place and facing Frightningale.
"Sorry loser we haven't got time to chat so bye bye." said Ghostfreak slapping the dial on the Omnitrix transforming himself in a green flash into Upgrade.
"Lucky Girl Now!" shouted Upgrade. Lucky Girl's hands lit pink and she recited the spell "Discombobulus Negatum!". Pink energy blasted out of her hands and struck Upgrade causing his form to malfunction and shift between liquid state and solid state.
"Aaaaghhhh!" cried Upgrade. Unfortunately Upgrade regained his form in a moment and they were still trapped on Petropia. He looked at himself and said "Um why didn't this work!"
"I don't know it did before!" replied Lucky Girl equally baffled.
"Um what was supposed to happen exactly?" asked Cat Noir
"The spell mixed with Upgrade should have taken us out of here but it hasn't and I have no clue why it didn't work!" explained Lucky Girl.
"Now that you all are done trying to escape how about-" Frightningale was interrupted by a sudden voice saying "Warning System protocol error. Virus Detected"
"Now that sounds unfamiliar." said Upgrade.
"Which means that this isn't the same situation as before which must be why the spell didn't work."added Lucky Girl.
"Enough! I don't what this stupid error is but I don't care! All I know is that I control this land and I will not let you all take control of this place from me! Frighninghounds attack!" ordered Frightningale. The Frightninghounds roared and charged at the heroes. Upgrade had to switch to XLR8 to get out of there before they could trample or eat him and Lucky Girl pulled Ladybug and Cat Noir up on a mana platform to an elevation that the Frightninghounds can't reach.
Frightningale cackled and said "Do you really think that you can escape me up there hah!" she drew her whip and began trying to hit them off of the platform with it. In response Lucky Girl turned it into a cube with them inside. However when she drew her whip the Frightninghounds vanished into thin air.
Frightningale grinned and said "You think that can stop me! Fools I am only just beginning to scratch the surface of my new power!" suddenly she began to grow and look even more terrifying. Her rainbow hair turned a purplish black and her white skin a dark grey. Her suit lost all of its glitter and turned a pitch black. The star on her chest and all other decals on her suit turned a crimson gained a red crimson belt with her microphone attached. Her eye covers (The weird sunglasses things over her eyes) were no longer mixed colors but tinted the same crimson red on the ends as on her suit and the two strands of colored hair by her face were now dyed red. Her eyes were also all black with red pupils and irises giving her a complete monstrous appearance.
"Ready to be eliminated!" boomed Frightningale with a voice sounding like a monster from a horror movie
Gabriel Agreste was worried for several reasons. The first being he had lost connection with the akuma which had never happened before now so who knows what she's doing with unchecked power. Second everyone and every pink statue that was outside the Grand Palais is now missing and has been for the past twenty minutes or at least according to the news it was so.
"This Nadja Chamack live at the Grand Palais. It has been roughly twenty minutes since a burst of pink light caused our heroes to vanish along with the latest supervillain and her pink statues. We will continue to cover this event with live updates but for now here is a list of all those that are currently unaccounted for..." The reporter began listing off names of those who were missing which brought Gabriel to his third issue. His son Adrien was on the missing persons list.
Gabriel switched off the monitor in his office and called for Natalie.
She came in very quickly and said "You called for me sir."
"Yes I did. I need you to be at the scene of where my son vanished at the Grand Palais and to tell me if there is any clue as to what happened to him and everyone else that vanished in the pink light. I will be sure to video call you once you arrive so bring your tablet with you." explained Gabriel in his always serious voice.
"Yes sir" was Natalie's reply as she left his office.
Gabriel continued staring at the monitor with the news as the reporter continued reading off names of those that had vanished. Silently he thought to himself "Please Ladybug and Cat Noir. Save my son."
Back in the simulated Petropia Giant Frightningale was about to smash Lucky Girl, Cat Noir, and Ladybug with her fist. The fist slammed on the mana cube shattering it into pieces and dispersing the heroes across the diamond landscape.
Before any of them hit the ground XLR8 zoomed in and brought each of them into a crater in the distance from Frightningale.
"You cannot escape me!" roared Frightningale so loudly it could be heard from the crater.
"We need a plan on how to get out of here." said XLR8
"Easier said than done. Especially when we know nothing on her new powers. It's like they're unlimited" said Cat Noir
"Maybe not. When she summoned her whip the Frightninghounds vanished and when she turned giant her whip was missing." said Lucky Girl.
"So you're saying she can only use one power at a time?" asked XLR8
"Probably but it looks like she's getting stronger and I bet that's why we're trapped here." replied Lucky Girl
"How so?" asked Ladybug
"Well the Interface said virus detected so maybe Frightningale is the virus since she also struck the Omnitrix with her whip which probably caused all of this somehow." explained Lucky Girl
"So you're saying that the reason we're stuck here and she has so much power is because she is the virus we have to defeat to escape?" asked Cat Noir
"Exactly." replied Lucky Girl
"And what if you're wrong?" questioned XLR8
"Anyone else have a better idea on how to get us out of here?" said Lucky Girl sarcastically. She got no reply.
"Ok so my plan is Waybig will distract her whilst the others pummel her with their attacks slowly wearing her down." explained Lucky Girl.
"I got a two questions with this plan. One why don't we just use M'lady's Lucky Charm to give us something to beat her and two who's Waybig?" asked Cat Noir
"One of my aliens. You'll understand why I call him that once you see him." said XLR8 grinning since he rarely gets to use Waybig due to his size being a safety hazard to everyone else.
"You're right a lucky charm could really help with the plan. So maybe now would be a good time to use it." said Lucky Girl agreeing with Cat Noir.
"Alright let's hope I'll know what to do with it." said Ladybug getting a confident smile of reassurance from Cat Noir. "Lucky Charm!" shouted Ladybug tossing her yoyo into the air. A swarm of magic Ladybug's appeared around it and turned into a long silky whitish silvery rope. It fell into her arms and was heavy.
"Agh what is this thing?" questioned Ladybug dropping it onto the ground.
Everyone looked at it trying to figure out what it is. Lucky Girl touched it and noticed it was sticky and appeared to be made of lots of small strands. "I think it's Spider silk." stated Lucky Girl removing her glove from it.
"Spider webbing gross." said XLR8 getting weird stares from everyone else. "What it comes out of a spider's butt so it's gross." said XLR8.
Lucky Girl facepalmed at that and replied "It doesn't come from the butt it comes from the abdomen."
"Whatever" replied XLR8
Whilst they were arguing Ladybug had climbed up to the edge of the crater and began looking for things to match her lucky charm with. She saw two adjacent pillars of diamond, XLR8, and Frightningale's microphone which sat on her belt. Ladybug gained a look of satisfaction on her face which didn't go unnoticed by Cat Noir.
"I take it you have a plan M'lady?" Cat Noir said.
"Yep and I'll need everyone's help to complete it." replied Ladybug with a confident smirk.
Giant Frightningale turned over large pillars of diamond and tore up the diamond ground in search of the heroes. Of course she had no luck since the heroes weren't even hiding from her.
"Hey ugly!" shouted Lucky Girl
"What happened to your make you look ugly without it!" added Cat Noir
Giant Frightningale turned to them and snarled "I'll destroy you!"
"Eeesh she's really gotten angrier and dumber since she turned giant sized." said Cat Noir to Lucky Girl as the two hopped onto a mana platform and rode it away from the adjacent diamond pillars. Giant Frightningale followed them and tried to swat them like flies.
"That's good for us. It makes it easier for the plan to work." replied Lucky Girl as she narrowly dodged Giant Frightningale's hand.
"Fly faster please." said Cat Noir.
"Don't you think I would if I could. I'm not used to using this as a getaway and especially not with passengers." replied Lucky Girl
Ladybug looked out from the crater to see Giant Frightnigale running after Lucky Girl and Cat Noir in the opposite direction of the adjacent diamond pillars. This is exactly what she wanted.
"Ok Go Four Arms and carry the web rope to the pillars." instructed Ladybug.
"I just hope the Omnitrix doesn't time out on me soon." replied XLR8 as he then transformed into a new alien in a flash of green light. Of course he wasn't Four Arms like he intended but he was Frankenstrike.
"Frankenstrike! I wanted Four Arms you stupid thing! But I guess I can make this work." complained Frankenstrike as he picked up the large heavy rope of spider silk. Frankenstrike dragged it over to the pillars and Ladybug tightened it on to the pillars by wrapping her yoyo around the web rope (She still held the circular end piece). The yoyo pushing it onto the pillars and the web's natural stickiness made it stick strongly to the pillars and the perfect tripwire.
Ladybug dialed up Cat Noir. He picked up quickly and said "Hello Bugaboo. How's the trap going?"
"Its ready you can bring her on back." replied Ladybug
"Great see you there M'Lady." finished Cat Noir hanging up. Ladybug had rolled her eyes at the bugaboo and M'lady comments.
"Its time to lead her back." said Cat Noir to Lucky Girl
"Took them long enough." commented Lucky Girl as she did a fast 180 and went back towards the pillars instead of away. Giant Frightningale followed them.
After about a minute or two they were nearing the pillars but unfortunately Giant Frightningale was able to snatch them up in her fist. Lucky Girl quickly switched the platform into a protective sphere but they were stuck within Frightningale's hand.
Cat Noir quickly dialed up Ladybug on his baton. She answered and he said "Um we have a situation"
Before Ladybug could ask what was wrong Lucky Girl butted in and said "She has us trapped in her fist we need a rescue."
"What no we have no rescue plan. (Ladybug sighs) Alright me and Frankenstrike I think will come try to save you once we do try to lure her back towards the trap." replied Ladybug ending the call.
Once she hung up she said "Ok Frankenstrike we'll need to- Frankenstrike?" Ladybug had noticed that in the middle of her sentence Frankenstrike was gone and running directly towards Giant Frightningale. "Hey wait!" she shouted after him but it fell upon deaf ears as he kept running.
As Frankenstrike neared her he slapped the Omnitrix triggering one final transformation. In a flash of a giant blinding green light now stood a colossal humanoid creature with a large fin on his head, which is black at the front and red at the bottom. He has blade-like growths on his shoulders and spikes on his waist. He also has red arms with two black lines and white fins on the elbows, wristband like outgrowths on his wrists and yellow eyes on his head. He has red feet with two toes, a black sandal-like covering on the middle of his feet and three black lines on the side of his neck. This is Way Big
Ladybug's mouth was agape in shock. She had no idea that he was so powerful. Giant Frightningale however was not intimidated by Way Big.
"So you want them back huh? Well go get them!" taunted Giant Frightningale as she then tossed them across the diamond plains.
Way Big's eyes widened in fear and he shouted "No!". He leapt towards the sphere barely catching it in his hands. He clutched it to his chest as his body hit the ground. He released the sphere and Lucky Girl dissipated it allowing herself and Cat Noir out.
"Thanks but uh maybe next time you could be less rough with the landing" said Lucky Girl who looked like she was about to puke.
Way Big stood up and said sarcastically "Your welcome."
Before he could react Giant Frightningale kicked him in the back knocking him down back towards the ground right where Lucky Girl and Cat Noir are standing.
"Agh!" cried Lucky Girl and Cat Noir as they narrowly evaded being crushed by a To'kustar.
"Hahaha you may be big but you're weak." taunted Giant Frightningale. Way Big growled under his breath and shot up slapping his fist across Giant Frightningale's face causing her to stumble back clutching her face. Her eye visor was broken and it fell off of her face.
Giant Frightningale gritted her teeth and leapt at Way Big a punch at the ready. Way Big grabbed her fist and used her momentum against her throwing her into a stray diamond pillar. The pillar broke on impact. Giant Frightningale got up still furious.
"I'll destroy you!" roared Frightningale as she charged at Way Big. She threw a fist at him which he caught but then she got him with an uppercut causing him to stumble back. Their fight continued with them exchanging blows like this for a while.
Eventually the tide changed when Way Big spotted the web pillar trap he and Ladybug had set up directly behind Giant Frightningale. He kicked Frightningale backwards, smirked, and crossed his arms charging up a quick laser blast. By the time Giant Frightningale got back up Way Big had already fired and hit her directly with the laser.
She was blasted back until she tripped over the web tripwire and was knocked out cold.
Ladybug, Cat Noir, and Lucky Girl rushed over to Giant Frightningale's fallen form as she began to shrink back down to normal size and appearance. Ladybug snatched the microphone off of her belt and broke it over her knee releasing the akuma and purified it. The last thing for her to do was the miraculous ladybug but she couldn't exactly toss up that giant web tripwire.
"Hey uh can you grab onto the tripwire and we toss it up at the same time to trigger miraculous ladybug um-" Ladybug wasn't sure what to call Way Big.
"The names Way Big." said Way Big as he tore the tripwire off of the pillars and placed it before Ladybug his hands still on it. Ladybug touched it and they both said "Miraculous Ladybug!" The swarm of magical Ladybug's appeared and covered everything.
The Last thing Way Big knew was everything went dark or rather pink as the swarm of ladybugs covered everything and he heard the Omnitrix interface say "Virus removed. rebooting system."
Ben's opened his eyes to see that he was back at the Grand Palais as himself again and no longer Way Big. He looked at his wrist to see that the Omnitrix was there and no longer sparking pink energy.
Ben saw Ladybug & Cat Noir fist-bumping "Pound it!" as well as Clara Nightingale back to normal and dealing with the usual dejà vu an akuma victim deals with.
"Ladybug? Cat Noir! What are you doing here?" Clara asked
"You were akumatized by Hawk Moth; but everything's back to normal again." said Cat Noir
"I was saved by the two of you? How amazing! Too good to be true!" exclaimed Clara
"And, I have an idea how you can finish your video without anyone getting in your way!" added Ladybug. She walks up to Clara, and whispers in her ear; Clara smiles at the idea on how to do her music video.
"Wonderful idea! I must go prepare and get extras right away!" said Clara running back into the Grand Palais.
Ben felt a tap on his shoulder and turned to see Gwen. "Want to get out of here?" she asked.
"Well considering that the auditioning and filming is done for yeah let's go." answered Ben as he and his cousin walked back to the Rustbucket.
A few days later on the release of the music video
Ben and Gwen's whole class minus Chloe were in the library waiting to watch the grand reveal of Clara Nightingale's latest music video staring them.
The video started by showing various people, to include all of Miss Bustier's students except Chloé, Ben, and Gwen dancing in sync while wearing either Ladybug or Cat Noir masks, starting with Juleka and Rose with the Eiffel Tower in the background, followed by Alya in front of the Arc de Triomphe, which pulls out to reveal Alix, Nino, Alya, Kim and Max, and then the school's staff and Officer Roger in the school courtyard.
During the montage of people dancing it played the miraculous theme song.
The video ended with dancing shots continued with one of Marc, Nathaniel, Mylène, Ivan, and Sabrina in front of the Hôtel de Ville, followed by Ondine at the swimming pool, and then Adrien, Marinette, and Luka by the Canal Saint-Martin.
"It's so much better like this!" said Rose
"At least now everybody gets to be in it!" added Mylene
"Besides, even though Adrien kinda looks like Cat Noir, he really wasn't believable. But hey Ben and Gwen how come you two weren't in the video. Clara offered everyone there a place in the video?" asked Alya
"We left before the filming began and by the time we found it was still going to be done it was already finished." explained Gwen.
"Yeah that makes sense I guess." said Alya
Adrien then commented on the music video "Yeah, I prefer this version cause there is no way I could have pulled off playing Cat Noir."
"I know. Worlds apart!" said Marinette
Adrien gasps wondering what Marinette meant
Marinette in a hurry to fix things runs over to Adrien and explains "What I meant was that you'd be more lame as Cat Noir than in real life. No! N-Not that you're lame in real life, right? It's just, compared to Cat Noir, you're just, I mean...you don't look a thing like him, that's what I mean."
Adrien chuckles and replies "And you don't look a thing like Ladybug either."
"Huh?" wondered Marinette
For the first time Adrien was stuttering around Marinette "Uh, yeah, I mean, I'm sure she's not as funny as you are!"
Marinette and Adrien both laugh.
Ben noticed this and thought "Do they have a crush on each other?"
Part two is done. I really wanted to do Frightningale better since her name is so unwarranted due to the fact that she sings and dances and looks more like a clown with sunglasses. So I made her actually somewhat scary and intimidating in this chapter. Also I will skip a few episodes of the series so I won't write Ben 10 characters into every episode but I will put in some sort of explanation as to what happened during that event when I do skip it. I am still unsure what episodes of Miraculous I will skip converting into this fanfic but I'll be sure to make it obvious which ones I do skip when I do that. Lastly exams are coming up soon and after that the ACT ugh that will probably make school twice or thrice as hard as usual so I will probably be too tired to write much for a while. I do still plan on updating just maybe at a slightly slower pace with a less certain update schedule.
