Tikki and Plagg came back.
Cut to The Bubbler on a rooftop.)
Bubbler: And now, party time!
(Kids cry.)
(Ladybug runs out of the bakery. Purple bubbles appear in the sky, broadcasting a message from the Bubbler.)
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.
"More like torture", Julika.
Nino sunk in his seat and apologized.
"Don't worry about it, you were akumatized and didn't know what you were doing. YOU ALL WERE AKUMATIZED SO DON'T GO BLAMING IT ON OTHERS. 'KAY?, Adrian.
"Okay", everyone said including those two, they knew the horror of being brainwashed by Hawkmoth.
"Thanks bro.", Nino
"No probs.", Adrian.
Ladybug: [to the kids] Don't worry, your parents will come back. I'll see to it. (to the teenager) You take care of them in the meantime. (runs off)
Kids and Teen: (cheering) Yay! Go, Ladybug!
Scene: Agreste Mansion. Adrien eats lunch alone in the mansion's dining room.
(Adrien finishes his meal and gets up.)
Adrien: (sarcastic) Wow. That was a birthday lunch break to remember. Yay! (He walks into the foyer and stops.) Nathalie? Father? (He shrugs sadly, then walks outside to a crowd of his classmates cheering.)
The girls awed.
Teenagers: Yay! Woo! Happy birthday!
"You didn't even think of looking for Mari?", Alya.
"Ya! I guess he really doesn't care about you Maritrash.", Chloe said making Mari sigh depressingly.
"Hey! I was surprised that's all, I did wonder where she was later on. But then she showed up, so I thought se was being as late as usual.", Adrian said.
Mari then smiled and hugged him turning pink.
Bubbler: (standing on top of a bubble) Hey, hey, hey, birthday boy. Guess what? Daddy's gone. While the cat's away, the mice will play. (Adrien looks at the Bubbler with a strange expression until he realizes who he is.)
Adrien: Nino?!
Bubbler: The Bubbler's brought all yo homies together for one single-sole purpose, to ce-le-brate!
Teenagers: YEAH! (The Bubbler jumps down from the bubble into a DJ booth)
Bubbler: Let's get this party started! (Everyone cheers. The Bubbler plays party music, and people start to dance. Adrien looks surprised and runs back into his house.)
Bubbler: Come on, everybody, I brought you here to party! (Pan over the teens dancing, but looking sad.) So dance or you'll join the adults up in the sky! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! (Fireworks are shot.)
Hawk Moth: (from his lair) It won't be long before Ladybug and Cat Noir show up to meet their doom! Mwahahahahahahaha!
"Ok, that dude's a stalker, just accept the facts!" , Nino.
Everyone agreed.
Scene: Adrien's room. Adrien looks at his ring. Plagg climbs up to his shoulder.
Plagg: What's your problem? Relax! You're getting the party you've always wanted.
"Plagg!", Tikki turned even more red than she already was.
For the first time in centuries Plagg looked scared, frightened even.
Adrien: But Nino's been akumatized! I've gotta help him!
"Thank you!", Tikki said and began turning normal.
Plagg: 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. (Adrien turns and looks sad.)
"Ahhhhhhhhh! PLAAAAGG! I'M GONNA KILL YOU!", Tikki said chasing him and than stopped while the whole class cracked up.
Adrien: Okay, you're right. This might be the first day in my life that I actually get to do what I want for once.
"ADRIAN!", Now it was Marinette, half of the class laughed at how cute they were together.
Scene: Rooftops. Ladybug is running towards the fireworks.
Ladybug: [to herself] It's you and me, Bubbler. (Cut to the Agreste Mansion. Everyone is dancing and Adrien is enjoying himself.)
Adrien: Yeah! (walks over to a sad-looking Rose) Hey, nice party, I guess, since it's my first one. (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.)
Sabrina: (frightened) I'm requesting a slow dance.
Bubbler: It's a bit early for that, isn't it?
Chloé: Ugh. (She shoves Sabrina down and puts on an innocent face.) It's for Adrien. His first slow dance. Mm? (makes a sweet face)
"WHAT!", Alya now started getting angry and Nino curled into a ball.
Bubbler: OH! You know it, girl. (He changes the music to a slow dance. People pair up and keep dancing and looking sad. Chloé walks up to Adrien.)
Alya punched Nino in the arm really hard and he yelped.
Adrien: Is it me, or does everyone seem a bit weird?
Chloé: Forget about them, let's go dance! C'mon! (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.)
Ladybug: There is no way this is happening. LUCKY CHARM!
"Jealous, are we milady?" Adrian said smirking really wide. He looked a bit scary.
"SHUT...UP...KITTY!
Besides I saved you, didn't I?", Mari said now smirking.
"HEY!", Chloe.
(The Lucky Charm superpower gives her a record.) A record?
(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.)
"Thank you", Adrian.
Bubbler: Dude! Who just hijacked my mix?
Ladybug: Yours truly. (Ladybug's alarm sounds.) Better bug out quick before I change back to normal. (She jumps out of the balcony to the outside of Agreste Mansion.) Spots off. (She changes back to normal. Tikki comes out of the earrings and lands on her hands.)
"Cool.", Julika.
Tikki: Marinette!
Marinette: It was an emergency.
Tikki: Yeah, if by emergency you mean jealousy.
Everyone nodded.
You know what happens once you use your Lucky Charm. You only have minutes before-–
Marinette: 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. (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.
Alya: Where have you been, girl? I was so scared something had happened to you.
Marinette: Me too! (they hug)
Alya: 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.
Marinette: Uh, there's something I've got to do first.
Alya: It's about Adrien.
Marinette: Okay.
"You're that easy to convince?", Mostly everyone said.
Marinette laughes sheepishly.
Tikki: (urgent) Marinette, the Bubbler.
Marinette: Okay, okay, in a sec. (she runs after Alya. Cut to Nathalie Sancoeur's office. Alya and Marinette sneak in. They see Marinette's gift on Nathalie's desk.
Alya: Look! Now you can sign your gift. (Marinette gasps)
Marinette: Ah, yes!
(Cut back outside. Ivan is not dancing, and the Bubbler confronts him.)
Bubbler: Hey, you. Why aren't you having fun?
Ivan: None of your business.
Bubbler: Then I'm going to make it my business. (He chuckles and takes out his bubble sword.)
"Sorry", Nino.
"It's ok, you were akumatized.", Ivan.
Mayline then hugs Ivan for being brave. Most of the girls awed.
(Cut back to Nathalie's office. Marinette is signing a post-it.)
Marinette: "Love, Marinette". There. (She sticks it to the present and gives the present a kiss.)
They awed again.
Tikki: Right, we're good. Spots on, Marinette.
Marinette: I can't do it now, Alya's here.
Alya: What'd you say?
Marinette: Go ahead! I'll meet you in the yard.
"How did I not see that?", Alya.
(Alya leaves and Marinette lets out a sigh of relief. Behind her, Ivan can be seen in a green bubble through the window) NO! You were right, Tikki, I never should've waited this long.
(Cut back to outside. Adrien is on top of the DJ booth and has a mike)
Adrien: Hey, Paris, how you doing?
(He raises the mike in excitement, but the people don't respond. The Bubbler, behind Adrien, threatens everyone with his bubble sword, and they cheer. Adrien jumps out and Ladybug can be seen on the roof.)
Adrien: Ladybug?
(Ladybug throws her yo-yo. It hits the power strip and unplugs everything. Ladybug retracts her yo-yo.)
Ladybug: Sorry, Bubbler, but the party is over.
Bubbler: Why you gotta be like that?
Ladybug: You made all the adults disappear, that's why! And now you're imprisoning anyone who isn't having fun. (Adrien runs into his house.)
Bubbler: You are not going to bust on my party! (He takes out his bubble sword and casts two bubbles at her, which she deflects. The crowd scatters. Cut to Adrien in his room.)
Adrien: I think I've been a complete idiot.
[Transformation Sequence]
Adrien: Plagg, claws out! (Adrien turns into Cat Noir)
Everyone ohhs and ahhs.
(Cut to Ladybug and The Bubbler fighting. Ladybug throws her yo-yo at one of his bubbles, 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)
Cat Noir: Looks like I made it just in time.
Ladybug: I had it under control, (the yoyo falls on Cat Noir's head), but thanks.
"GIRL, YOU WERE FLIRTING! AND WITH ADRIAN FOR THAT MATTER! I NEED A SHIP NAME!", Alya said fangirling.
Hawk Moth: [from his lair; to The Bubbler] Get the Miraculouses. I want those powers, NOW!
(The Bubbler throws a stream of small red bubbles to Ladybug and Cat Noir, 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 both captured in one big bubble. Ladybug struggles against the bubble as the Bubbler laughs.)
Bubbler: Give me your Miraculouses before you run out of air.
Ladybug: Dream on, Bubbler.
Bubbler: Total party poopers, just like adults.
Ladybug: Kids need adults.
Bubbler: False! Kids need freedom, fun, let loose and live it up. Adults are controlling and bossy.
Ladybug: But adults keep children safe and protected. They care for their kids, they love them!
"True!", Everyone said.
Cat Noir: [to himself] Most adults do anyhow. [to Bubbler] You must bring the adults back!
Everyone awed.
"Kitty, he does care about you. In his own way. And if he ever makes you feel like he doesn't you should tell him!", Mari.
Adrian smiled and kissed her on her temple. Everyone explodes with happiness. And Alya goes MADLY INSANE.
Bubbler: Nope, never. Know what, since you care so much about these adults, why don't you go float with them for a while? (He runs at them and kicks the bubble high up into the sky. Ladybug and Cat Noir scream, and the teenagers gasp.)
Hawk Moth: [from his lair; to The Bubbler] What do you think you're doing Bubbler? You're supposed to seize their Miraculouses!
"Stalker!", Nathanial says after a long moment of silence.
Scene: Green bubble up in the sky. Ladybug and Cat Noir are trying to burst the bubble.
Ladybug: Use your Cataclysm!
Cat Noir: Couldn't you have said that five hundred feet ago?
"True.", Kim.
Ladybug: We can't stay stuck in this bubble together forever. (Cat Noir smirks, Ladybug facepalms)
"GIRL!", Alya being...well...ALYA.
Cat Noir: CATACLYSM! (He touches the bubble and it bursts. They start falling)
Ladybug: Should we see if you land on your feet this time?
Cat Noir: No, thanks!
Ladybug: Your stick, there! (She points to the Eiffel Tower)
Cat Noir: Got it! (He throws his staff so hard it gets stuck in the Eiffel Tower. Ladybug takes his hand.)
Ladybug: Hang on! (She throws her yo-yo. It catches around the Cat Noir's staff, and they swing and land safely.)
Cat Noir: Good thing cats aren't afraid of heights.
Ladybug: We've got to get to his bubble sword, that's got to be where the akuma is. (Cat Noir's ring alert sounds.)
Cat Noir: Better hurry.
Scene: Agreste Mansion front. The Bubbler tries to get the party going again.
Bubbler: Where is everybody? Get out here and party!
Ladybug: Sorry to burst your bubble.
Alya: [from the crowd] Ladybug! (All the teens start to cheer her on.)
"Thanks for revealing yourself and everyone else to the him.", Mari.
"Sorry, I was just exited.", Alya.
"Not as much as you are now though.", Mari.
Ladybug: No one wants to party with you anymore, Bubbler.
Bubbler: What's wrong with all you guys!? Why you gotta be such haters!? (He grunts, takes out his bubble sword and captures all the teens in bubbles.)
Ladybug and Cat Noir: NOOO!
Bubbler: Outer space is the next stop for your precious peeps, and they're never coming back!
(The Bubbler jumps from roof to roof and Ladybug and Cat Noir pursue him. The Bubbler flies to the Eiffel Tower. Ladybug and Cat Noir start climbing it while he throws explosive bubbles at them. Cat Noir's ring alert sounds again. His icon shows that he is very close to switching back.)
Cat Noir: I'm gonna switch back soon, hurry.
Ladybug: LUCKY CHARM! (The lucky charm superpower gives her a big wrench)
Cat Noir: Your... plumbing skill is gonna help us out? (Ladybug shrugs, and The Bubbler throws more explosive bubbles at Cat Noir. He dodges them, ending up atop a beam.)
Cat Noir: Could use a little work! Is that all you got? (Ladybug begins thinking and her thinking vision shows her a vent, a vent pipe, the screw connecting them, and the wrench)
"That is so freakin cool!", Kim.
Max then speaks a compliment, but in math, so no one understands.
Ladybug: Got it! (She runs towards the pipe while Cat Noir is still dodging bubbles. She loosens the screw and the pipe comes off. It goes up to where Cat Noir is standing.) Cat Noir, cover me! (Cat Noir takes the pipe)
Cat Noir: Go on! (The Bubbler throws more bubbles at him, but the air flowing from the pipe deflects them. The Bubbler raises his bubble sword once again, but Ladybug throws her yo-yo and snatches the sword, bringing it to her. She breaks the sword in half with her knees. The akuma flies out of the sword.)
Ladybug: Get out of there, you nasty bug. No more evil-doing for you, little akuma. (She opens her yo-yo and it glows pink.) Time to de-evilize! (She swings it around, captures the akuma and closes it.) Gotcha! (She opens the yo-yo again and the akuma is purified.) Bye-bye, little butterfly. MIRACULOUS LADYBUG! (She throws the wrench up in the sky, and the Miraculous cleansing light returns every adult to safety. The Bubbler falls on his knees, the black smoke covers him and he turns back to Nino.)
Nino: Who? Dude.(Ladybug and Cat Noir bump their fists)
Ladybug and Cat Noir: Pound it!
All their friends clap.
(Cut to Hawk Moth in his lair)
Hawk Moth: You can't run forever Ladybug, and when I catch you, I will crush you! I will DESTROY YOU BOTH! (His window screen closes)
"NO YOU WONT!", Everyone said.
Scene: Nathalie Sancoeur's Office.
Gabriel: [on the intercom] Nathalie? Did my son like his gift?
Nathalie: Actually, I was going to check right away sir.
Gabriel: Good. (He disconnects)
Nathalie: (She despairs, looks around, and takes Marinette's gift.
"She wouldn't!", Adrian.
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.
"I'm sooo sorry Mari!", Adrian.
"It's ok, you were happy and that's all that maters an-", Adrian breaks the conversation by wrapping her in a kiss.
"AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!", Alya screams... REALLY loud causing everyone to cover their ears."MY SHHHHIIIIIIIIIIIIIIPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPP, IT'S HAPPPPPPPPPPENNNNNNNNNINGGGGG! I NEEEEEEEEEEEED MY PHONE, WHERE IS IT?!"
"I'm pretty sure the person or thing that brought us here doesn't want us recording or taking any pictures.", Nino said calming his girlfriend down before she does some real damage, like breaking her seat.
Adrien: Thank you. I mean, please say thank you to my father for me. (Nathalie nods. Adrien looks happily at the gift.)
Scene: Outside school.
Chloé: (Screaming at Sabrina) What do you mean not for a week?
Sabrina: (scared) There were no adults yesterday to deliver it.
Chloé: So what? Ridiculous, utterly ridiculous! (She storms inside, followed by Sabrina.)
Everyone laughs and says that she deserves it.
Alya: [to Marinette] Ha ha! Serves Chloé right.
Adrien: Hey girls! (He gets out of the limousine, wearing a scarf)
Marinette: [to Alya] Hey, that's my scarf! He's wearing my scarf.
Adrien: [to Nino] Hey, dude.
Alya: Yo, nice scarf, Adrien. Off the chain.
Adrien: Yeah, can you believe my dad got this for me? (Marinette looks surprised) He's so awesome. He's been giving me the same lame pen for three years in a row.
Nino: Wow, I guess anyone can change. Adults can be cool when you least expect it.
Adrien: Speaking of adults, I know my father said you were a bad influence, but-
Nino: We're good, Adrien, don't sweat it. We're buds. Always and forever.
Alya: [to Marinette] You gotta tell him you were the one who knitted the scarf.
Marinette: But he seems so happy about his dad. I don't want to spoil it for him.
Alya: Aw, Marinette. (They hug.) You're amazing, girl. You know that, right? And some day Adrien will figure it out too. Promise. (the bell rings and everyone walks in.)
"I will, I did, and I do.", Adrian said and this time Mari pulled him in to kiss.
Alya then does the same thing , but freaks out 100x more and ends up breaking her right seat handle. Nino knew it. He sighed.
I'm back and no, I'm not dead. I told you in my last chapter that I would not be updating for a while because of my school project. It is worth like more than half of my grades on 3 subjects. And everyone that know me knows that I have panic attacks when this time comes. I am not the best when it comes to science and math. The writing portion was okay, but I had to write like 20 pages in one day and that is impossible. I don't know what I got yet, but wish me luck, we get our grades next week. Anyways, back to this, I will be trying to update every week. I am not as busy now as I was when I first started writing, but like always I'm not going to make promises that I can't keep. Thanks a lot to everyone who is still keeping up with me. In the comments, it would be nice if you tell me your favorite ship from ADRIANETTE, MARICHAT,LADYNOIR,OR LADRIAN. Mine is obviously Adrianette. The one that is commented the most will be Alya's pick. BYEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!
As Always
