Marinette/Ladybug:
I watched with almost an awestruck fear as the darkness that surrounded Shade began to swirl. The smoke tentacles he controlled seemed to gain mass as he wrapped them around unsuspecting victims. My legs couldn't seem to function properly, I could only watch as Shade used his power to fill innocent citizens with smoke. He made them feel not only his pain but also made them loyal to his cause. I felt Chat Noir land beside me but could do nothing to tear my eyes away from the terrible display unfolding in front of me. "If I were you," he said to Chat Noir and myself, "I would hand over your miraculous before I squeeze the very souls from your bodies." Shade hissed ruthlessly, teeming with cruelty. With that, I snapped out of my daze. "No way Hawkmoth is ever coming anywhere near our jewels." Chat seemed to take a defensive stand in front of me as he declared, "If Hawkmoth thinks he can just get away with terrorizing the people of this city for our power, he has another thing coming." He practically growled the last part, I put a hand on his shoulder to keep him from going too feral. Afterall, Shade was still just another victim. "Shade", I yelled, "you don't have to do this! Fight it!" Shade merely looked bored at my attempt to get through to him. "So be it." He cried and launched his minions at our superhero forms.
Adrien/Chat Noir:
"If I were you," Shade said, "I would hand over your miraculous before I squeeze the very souls from your bodies." At that, Ladybug seemed to snap out of her fear and immediately answered, "No way Hawkmoth is ever coming anywhere near our jewels." Honoring the promise I made to myself, I took a protective stance in front of her and declared, "If Hawkmoth thinks he can just get away with terrorizing the people of this city for our power, he has another thing coming." I felt myself growing wild with anger as I growled my retort. How dare this man threaten my lady? Ladybug seemed to sense my outrage and put a hand on my shoulder to calm me down. I had to remind myself that Shade was just another victim, he wasn't the real enemy. Hawkmoth was. Yes, Hawkmoth would pay. "Shade", Ladybug suddenly yelled, "you don't have to do this! Fight it!" Shade had the audacity to simply look bored at her touching attempt to help him. "So be it." He signaled for his followers to strike us.
