Story Arc: Welcome to Paris

Episode 1: We are Shoggoths ! (I)

Prologue: An abnormal "Akuma".

XXX

POV Narrator

Since the 17th century, Paris has been one of the world's major centers of finance, diplomacy, commerce, fashion, gastronomy and science.

For its prominent role in the arts and sciences, as well as its very first street lighting system, it became known as "the City of Light" in the 19th century.

Nowadays Paris is famous for the local super-hero couple Ladybug and Chat Noir and the super-villain Papillon.

XXX

For just over nine months, Papillon has appeared on the scene, using a magical artifact, Butterfly Miraculous, to transform innocent civilians into Akuma, super-villains who can gain all kinds of superpowers.

The typical day in Paris from the appearance of Ladybug, Chat Noir, Papillon, can be summarized quite simply.

An ordinary person gets a bad one, then an Akuma appears and turns the civilian into a super villain.

In a matter of seconds, Papillon's fledgling pawn begins to go insane and attempts to solve his personal problems in a rather violent way, using his newly obtained superpowers at the cost of their free will and sanity.

Shortly thereafter Ladybug and Chat Noir appear on the scene. Papillon orders his pawn to defeat the heroes and take their Miraculous.

The fight can last a few minutes or several hours. But in the end, through a mix of jokes, side plans and the use of their magical powers, the two heroes save the day.

Everyone is happy and content. Except Papillon who promises revenge against the heroes and that next time he will be able to get the Miraculous of Ladybug and Chat Noir.

This event replayed over and over, in the same pattern, almost like a teen cartoon.

Unfortunately from today, something will happen that will ruin this formula, a new variable will be introduced, slowly changing the whole path of Ladybug and Chat Noir.

XXX

In space, not far from the Earth, there is a strange meteorite, which appears to be composed of a sort of slimy slime that constantly changes shape and color.

The "meteorite" is too small to cause considerable damage, but large enough not to be burned up by the atmosphere.

The size of the "meteorite" is not important, but its composition and what is inside it are invaluable.

In reality the "meteorite" is a hive, made up of a hundred Klyntar, an alien life form, commonly known as Symbiotes.

At the center of this beehive, curled up in a small ball, is an androgynous 17-year-old boy.

His name is Bruce Bahamut Belmont, an Occult Detective who plays the Super-Hero of Boston.

His last journey into space started well, but ended particularly badly, being overwhelmed by a hive of Symbiotes who are desperately looking for a Host in order not to die.

The experience of a hundred Klyntars arguing with each other like angry animals over a Host's body is not the least bit pleasant.

Meanwhile, as the Klyntar continue to argue, the small hive is approaching Earth, being sucked into the planet's gravitational field.

If NASA sees the "meteorite" it could say that it will fall right in the middle of Paris, precisely in the park near the Tom & Sabine Boulangerie Patisserie.

XXX

On the top floor of the Dupain family bakery/patisserie, sits a girl named, Marinette Dupain-Cheng.

Marinette is a 13-year-old girl, 135 centimeters tall, known to be one-quarter French and one-quarter Italian (on her father's side) and half Chinese (on her mother's side).

She has a fair complexion followed by shoulder-length black hair with blue highlights that is always seen pulled back in pigtails, light pink lips, bright bell eyes, and slight freckles on either side and the bridge of her nose.

At the moment, Marinette is in her room, sitting in front of her desk, working on a particularly important project.

Finding a way to spend more time with her love (obsession), Adrien, a classmate who has captured Marinette's heart.

"I heard next week, the fencing team opens up a spot for a new member, I might apply and be with Adrien on a regular basis." Marinette murmurs, dreamily, imagining an entire scenario where Adrien is teaching her some tricks of the trade.

" Marinette, are you sure that joining the fencing team is a good idea? You already have so much to do with school, your career and your duties as a Ladybug." Tikki said, not believing it was a good idea to add more duties and responsibilities to Marinette's complicated life.

Tikki is a Kwami, a small bright crimson creature 10 centimeters tall.

It has a tiny body, a large head, dark blue eyes, and freckles on its face.

It resembles a ladybug, with two antennae, a large black spot on the forehead, back and each side of the head, and a short tail with three vertically aligned spikes.

Kwami are divine spirit-like beings who embody "abstract" concepts.

They give certain powers to people with Miraculous, turning them into animal-themed superpowered beings.

Perhaps you wonder why such an important entity finds itself hovering around a 13-year-old madly in love who dreams of a career in fashion design.

The answer is quite simple, Marinette Dupain-Cheng is Ladybug, the heroine of Paris, bearer of the Ladybug Miraculous.

"Tikki, you worry too much. Somehow, I'll be able to find time to practice swordplay with Adrien." Marinette said, thinking with her heart instead of using her brain... which is probably compromised by hormones and teenage love (obsession).

"I understand, when Adrien is important to you, Marinette. But you shouldn't forget that your health and your duties as a Ladybug come first." Tikki said, wanting only the best for her ladybug.

Marinette has become one of the best ladybugs, which Tikki has had in the last millennia.

"I'll be fine, Tikki. For the past few weeks, Papillon has been pretty quiet and his latest Akuma hasn't been great." Marinette said, in a confident tone, feeling lucky.

The young heroine believes that this week will be easier than usual, maybe she will finally be able to make real progress with Adrien.

Marinette Dupain-Cheng has no idea how wrong she is. The next few weeks, no, the next few months will be far from peaceful.

"You shouldn't let your guard down too much. We live in a world where anything is possible just a week ago, Boston was overrun by aliens and robots." Tikki recounted the most talked about event of recent times.

Alya Césaire, Marinette's best friend, she is a big fan of super heroes.

In addition to creating a blog dedicated to the heroes of Paris and when it can broadcast live, the deeds of Ladybug and Chat Noir, as if it were Lois Lane.

Alya pursues the stories of America's super heroes with a religious zeal, then when something new happens, she talks all week about the latest adventures of the Avengers, Fantastic Four, Spider-Man or new heroes.

Seven days ago, Boston was the battlefield between an ex-urban legend, a bizarre group of space heroes, a dozen spaceships and a small army of killing machines, led by a mad scientist nicknamed Doctor Eggman.

Alya spoke about the Battle of Boston, expounding her theories to her good friend, Marinette. Tikki standing by Marinette, she has heard all of Alya's ideas.

This experience has made the little goddess of creation, slightly more cautious and worried about the future than Marinette.

Nowadays, it seems that not a year can go by on Earth, without a major invasion of aliens/robots/demons or some other equally serious threat.

The Earth is getting smaller, more dangerous and noisier. Every day, more and more special people get involved in the endless conflict between good and evil.

Tikki, she is concerned that the Miraculous and especially Marinette, may end up participating in battles a thousand times more dangerous than Papillon and Akuma.

Tikki's little warning had an effect on Marinette, who bit her lip, feeling some anxiety.

Like Ladybug, Marinette often ends up saving the day for the Akumas and occasionally stopping minor crimes.

But the idea of solving large-scale problems isn't something he wants to try.

"So far, the big calamities have only happened in America, where there are dozens of super-heroes. I don't think aliens will invade Paris." Marinette said, not even wanting to think about the possibility that her hometown could become the target of a disaster of extraterrestrial origin.

XXX

After a second, the universe decided to show the ladybug-themed heroine, who is wrong in thinking that Paris will be spared from the madness plaguing the rest of the universe.

CRASH!

The "meteorite" finally reached its destination, in the process turning 1/3 of the park into a smoking crater.

XXX

The impact of the "meteorite" was so violent that it knocked Marinette out of her chair, scattering all her stalker work.

" What happened !?" cries Marinette, getting up off the floor, with a slight headache.

"Maybe it was an earthquake or a meteorite?" said Tikki, handing over the most likely explanation, hoping not to find himself an Akuma.

" ▂▂▂▃▃▃▄▄▄▅▅▅▅ !" An inhuman roar erased any rational explanation for the tremors.

The scream sounds like the union between a legendary beast and a man who has come out of hell.

"I think he just got our reply." Marinette said, striking her pre-transformation pose.

"Tikki, spots on!" Marinette utters the magic words to initiate her transformation.

Tikki got engrossed in Marinette's earrings.

Within a second, Marinette's entire body was enveloped in a magical light, creating her costume and granting her Ladybug powers.

She wears a red superhero jumpsuit covered in black spots and a black collar/turtleneck.

When not in use, she keeps her yo-yo around her hips with a red string.

On her face is a red mask with five black spots that are in a symmetrical design, and the waterlines of her eyes are colored black.

Her earrings are red with five black spots in a quincunx pattern, and the bands holding her hair back become red ribbons, resembling a ladybug's antennas or a ladybug flying when she's moving.

The heroine of Paris stepped out of the balcony, going straight to the source of new troubles.

Problems that will not be able to be solved as usual and will last for quite some time.

XXX

Within seconds, Ladybug swinging with her magic yo-yo, arrived in front of the park entrance.

Thank goodness, at the time of impact, there were no people in the park.

Saving Ladybug to see a rather gruesome scene.

'Whoever this Akuma is, he must be especially strong.' Think Ladybug, looking at how a third of the place has been reduced to a smoking crater.

Holding her yo-yo ready for an offensive or defensive move, Ladybug tries to get close to the crater.

Big mistake, big big mistake.

Something sensed the presence of the heroine of Paris.

At the exact moment, when Ladybug took a step forward, a big blur of blue color exploded out of the crater.

" ▂▂▂▃▃▃▄▄▄▅▅▅▅ !" An inhuman roar heralded a frontal attack.

Ladybug by pure reflex did a somersault backwards, avoiding a deadly punch by a millimeter.

MASH!

The fists of the bush hit the ground, shattering it into a thousand pieces, making pebbles and sand rain down.

"Papillon must have seen a horror movie when he created it." Ladybug said, considering her being that just attacked her as one of the scariest Akuma, that she has seen of her in her career as a heroine of hers.

The "Akuma" is a two-metre behemoth, with an imposing and well-developed physique, as if straight out of a heavyweight competition.

He wears a semi-armored suit that encloses his entire body, leaving not even a millimeter of his body exposed to the outside world.

The costume is mainly dark blue, with black highlights on the breastplate.

Atop the chest is a large black colored symbol, a kind of A, the ancient Greek letter for Alpha.

Behind the back is a black colored symbol resembling a spider.

On the right hand are five fancy-looking rings, which look like something out of a fantasy book.

Around her wrists and ankles, she wears futuristic-looking silver bracelets.

The "Akuma" has a single eye, the left eye, which is represented as a spot, with a black outline and the entire white.

The mouth of the "Akuma" consists of three rows of sharp teeth, capable of making a shark jealous in terms of quantity and quality.

Hands and feet are decorated with long claws, capable of cutting steel as if it were paper.

The "Akuma" looks at Ladybug exactly like a lion looks at a gazelle.

A long, tentacle-like tongue cuts through the hundreds of sharp fangs.

'I don't like the look of this Akuma.' Ladybug thinks, tightening her grip around her yo-yo, having a bad feeling with this foe.

"▂▂▂▃▃▃▄▄▄▅▅▅▅ !" The dark blue enemy darts forward swinging its claws wildly.

Ladybug using her superhuman speed and agility, manages to dodge the giant's blows, even if it wasn't easy.

Suddenly, a black figure wielding a silver baton joins the stage.

The newcomer's stick tries to hit the enemy's head, but the colossus manages to dodge with extreme ease.

The "Akuma" performs a great leap backwards, landing and crushing a taxi parked near the house of Marinette Dupain-Cheng.

"Bugaboo, I arrived late to the party!?" Cat Noir asks, jokingly, looking fondly at her fellow heroine.

Cat Noir is a 13-year-old boy, 150 centimeters tall.

Cat Noir has cat eyes with green sclerae, dark green irises, and slit pupils.

Cat Noir wears a textured black skin-tight catsuit with metal details.

He wears matching gloves that have claws on the fingertips and boots with a hidden wedge, silver toes, and paw-shaped treads.

He has a golden bell on his neck, connected to a zipper on the front of his costume, and a long belt that wraps around his waist and hangs out from the back like a tail.

He wears black cat ears and a black mask to cover his face. When transformed, his ring turns black and gains a bright green paw print on its face. Keeping his staff attached to his lower back.

" You arrived on time, the party has just begun." Answers Ladybug, being able to feel less tense with Cat Noir at her side.

"So, bugaboo, who is this killjoy?" Cat Noir asks, holding his staff in a defensive stance, wanting to know who he's up against.

"He hasn't introduced himself, in fact I don't think he can speak." said Ladybug, having heard nothing but roars from this opponent.

" We have before us, one of the rare, Akuma, unable to speak and very ugly, just like Horrificator." Said Cat Noir, placing the new super-villain in this small category of dumb enemies.

XXX

Meanwhile the heroes are trading jokes like they're in a cartoon.

The "Akuma" has shifted its focus from the heroes of Paris to the Dupain family's pastry shop/bakery.

The chaotic brain and empty stomach of this creature was attracted by the smell of chocolate and sweets.

For once, the quality of the Dupain-Cheng family's products is not a good thing.

"▂▂▂▃▃▃▄▄▄▅▅▅▅ !" He screams the creature, announcing its intent to devour its prey.

Ladybug and Chat Noir prepare to face the enemy, both raising their special weapon.

Unfortunately, the new super-villain preferred to break down the front door of the pastry shop/bakery instead of playing with the two teenage heroes.

The extraterrestrial creature with the grace of a bull in a porcelain warehouse begins to devour everything in the store.

The heroes for a single second were baffled by the whole thing.

There have previously been instances where an Akuma focuses on one's goals, typically to take revenge on a specific person.

But never before has Ladybug and Chat Noir been set aside for sweets.

Maybe they are the best sweets in Paris, but these are strange priorities for an Akuma to have.

'That's Marinette's house!' She thinks Chat Noir, realizing that the abnormal Akuma finds her in her classmate's house.

'My home !' Think Ladybug, worried sick for the well-being of her house.

"Let's stop it!" Shouts Ladybug, running towards her house, as she spins her yo-yo like it's a deadly weapon.

Chat Noir in a very rare moment of seriousness does not respond with a joke, instead runs on all fours as if he were a cheetah, wanting to stop the destruction of the Dupain-Cheng family home.

XXX

The extraterrestrial creature has devastated the shop in a few seconds and is currently eating a plate of biscuits, not finding the difference between the plate and the biscuits.

A magical yo-yo straps itself around the creature's right hand, preventing it from grasping a tray filled with pastries.

"Your parents didn't teach you that too many sweets are bad for you!" He shouted Chat Noir, before leaping like a lion, wanting to strike the new super-villain.

"▂▂▂▃▃▃▄▄▄▅▅▅▅ !" The beast roars in anger, not appreciating being interrupted while eating.

By forcefully pulling her right arm, Ladybug was pulled towards the opponent, ending up in the path of Chat Noir.

Somehow, both fall on top of each other in an easily misunderstood position.

The creature wastes no time, tentacles sprout from its hands and grab the ankles of Ladybug and Chat Noir.

The super-villain begins to spin around. He spins so fast that both heroes' legs no longer reach the ground.

Eventually, the "Akuma" lets them go, sending them flying out of the shop, eventually crashing into a car parked across the street.

"Bugaboo, the world is upside down." Chat Noir murmurs, in a childish tone, clearly stunned by the attack.

"Papillon must have been working overtime for this Akuma." Ladybug murmurs, pretty sure she's never met an Akuma with such strength.

"▂▂▂▃▃▃▄▄▄▅▅▅▅ !" He shouts the blue beast, raising its head to the sky, as if to herald his victory.

The creature leaps into the air as if it were the Hulk, aiming to literally crush the two heroes.

" Chat Noir, let's move!" Shouts Ladybug, grabbing her mate by the hand, pulling out of the way of the new super-villain.

SMASH!

Once the enemy hit the ground, the car was crushed and the whole neighborhood was shaken as if in the throes of a terrible earthquake.

"▂▂▂▃▃▃▄▄▄▅▅▅▅ !" Shouts the blue beast, throwing both fists in the air, his muscles swelling as if they had received the most efficient doping in the world.

"This is a bad sign." mumbles Chat Noir, having seen enough movies and scenes of the Hulk in action to understand what's coming.

SMASH!

The blue beast hits the road with all its strength, which breaks the road into millions of pieces, indeed behind it created a crevasse that separates the entire neighborhood in two!

After this show of sheer strength, the creature turns its attention to Ladybug and Chat Noir, grinning like a cat playing with a mouse.

" I think that in your case chocolate is good for them." She hums Chat Noir, using jokes to allay her fears.

The feline hero is not exaggerating, the blue beast after devouring the entire candy store, seems to have become stronger and more lucid.

The creature spreads its arms as if it wants a hug, then stamps the ground with its foot, blowing up all the bits of asphalt.

The blue beast claps his hands with superhuman strength!

BAM!

Creating a shockwave that sends hundreds or thousands of fragments in the direction of Ladybug and Chat Noir, creating a monstrously effective attack.

The two teenage heroes make the right choice and take cover behind a car, avoiding the avalanche of sharp shards for a second.

" He does not speak, but he is scary and strong and creative. What Papillon drank in the morning to create such an Akuma." Chat Noir asks, hoping that Papillon hasn't suddenly gotten better at creating super-villains.

If that were the case, there's good sanse that neither of Paris' heroes will reach retirement or even the end of this summer.

"We have to take him to a more isolated place, if we keep fighting here, someone will be hurt." Ladybug said, worried about what could happen to the people who live in the neighborhood.

" Leave this task to me, m'lady." Said Chat Noir, always ready to risk one of his nine lives to help Ladybug.

The feline hero comes out of hiding and begins to taunt the super-villain.

"Slimy Cyclops, I bet you can't catch this charming cat!" He declares Chat Noir, pulling out his tongue, making various gestures to get the blue beast's attention.

"▂▂▂▃▃▃▄▄▄▅▅▅▅ !" He shouts the blue beast, managing to transform its arms into a pair of huge warhammers.

"It worked out too well!" Chat Noir exclaims, starting to run with his tail between his legs.

"Keep him busy, I'm going to get some reinforcements." Ladybug said, wanting to leave the scene to bring Rena Rouge, Carapace and Queen Bee.

Three temporary heroes who are only brought into play when a particularly powerful Akuma appears.

Ladybug uses her yo-yo as a grappling hook, going in the opposite direction of Chat Noir and his pursuer.

Unfortunately, underneath the image of the angry beast, there is a calculated mind connected to superhuman ears.

The blue beast whirls around and I use his fist/hammer to throw a phone booth straight at Ladybug.

The heroine of Paris stops from her run across the rooftops, narrowly avoiding being run over by a telephone booth.

Ladybug moves her head in the direction of the new super-villain, seeing that he is watching her like a hawk, ignoring Chat Noir.

With extreme ease, the blue beast making a huge jump, ending up on the terrace of Marinette's house.

The slimy tongue of the blue beast passes through the hundreds of sharp fangs, while the hands are once again terrible claws.

The blue beast has figured out which of the two is the more worthy prey that must be finished first.

The girl behind Ladybug's mask can't help but cringe. Out of all of Papillon's super-villains, this one is easily the creepiest.

' What created Papillon ?' Marinette thinks, wishing there was more than a broken road between them.

The extraterrestrial creature appears to be smiling, as if it could sense Marinette Dupain-Cheng's momentary fear.

'Plan B doesn't work, I have to go back to plan A, find and destroy the Akumatized objects.' Ladybug thinks, regaining control, realizing that she can't afford to lose her temper.

The heroine of Paris understands that she cannot

fetch the Miraculous for the temporary heroes.

The moment he turns away, the blue beast will launch his attack.

Ladybug observes her opponent, making a short list of where the Akumatized objects might be.

'It must be inside one of the bracelets or one of the rings.' Think Ladybug, deciding to target the rings that have an important aspect.

"I'm sorry, but nobody can disturb, m'lady." Chat Noir said, in an angry tone, unappreciated as the "Akuma" looks at Ladybug.

The feline hero using his extendable silver staff catapults himself into the air, landing in the same position as the "Akuma."

Chat Noir attacks using a kick, aiming at his enemy's ugly face.

Too bad this time Chat Noir is too slow and predictable.

Without taking his eyes off Ladybug, the blue beast moves his head slightly, completely dodging the feline hero's blow.

The "Akuma" doesn't just dodge, its right hand enlarges, becoming large enough to grab Chat Noir's head, then...

SMASH!

Slamming Chat Noir's face into Marinette's balcony floor so hard that part of the balcony collapsed.

The Blue Beast lifts Chat Noir's head, clearly the blow was strong enough to knock the feline hero unconscious.

The "Akuma" instead of behaving like the typical Papillon puppet, didn't even try to take Chat Noir's ring, not even worthy of a look at it.

Instead of following Papion's typical pattern, he raises his left hand, transforming it into a blade designed to pierce flesh.

"Don't you dare hurt my cat!" Shouts Ladybug, so worried about the fate of Chat Noir.

The heroine of Paris, mindlessly leaps forward, throwing her yo-yo in the direction of Chat Noir.

The Blue Beast attacks, moving its arm/blade aiming at the feline hero's neck, wanting to separate Chat Noir's head from the rest of the body.

When it was less than a millimeter away from making contact with Chat Noir's flesh, the Blue Beast's hand abruptly stops.

" I ... do not ... kill ... helpless ... opponents." He murmurs softly to the Blue Beast, his first words since the beginning of the conflict.

At that moment, Ladybug's yo-yo ties around the feline hero's chest, without hesitation, Ladybug pulls her yo-yo, bringing her beloved companion towards her.

If the "Akuma" isn't still like it has turned into a statue, it could stop Ladybug's plan, but something is going on in his head.

Ladybug is ready to run away, with her mate in her arms, but she held back when she saw the strange behavior of this "Akuma".

"haaaaaa!" The blue beast lets out a startlingly human cry of pain, as it tries to tear its face off…

The creature that was previously enjoying fighting against Ladybug and Chat, is ... having a mental breakdown?

'Must be the most unstable Akuma ever.' Think Ladybug, worried not only for Chat Noir, her cause, but also for the possessed victim.

The delirious creature ends up falling off the balcony, landing on the sidewalk, causing further property damage.

'What is going on? Are we even fighting an Akuma ?' Think Ladybug, having never been in a similar situation.

For a moment, Ladybug has reverted to being Marinette who is starting everything from scratch again.

Should he take Chat Noir to a safe place?

Go to Master Fu to get Miraculous for temporary heroes?

It remains is to see what is happening with the most abnormal "Akuma" ever.

The Blue Beast putting himself

his head in his hands, he begins to scream like a madman.

The claws were dug into one's head, trying to get the "bad thoughts" out.

Before Ladybug could go down and do her job to free the "victim" from the influence of the "Akuma".

Things have gotten stranger.

The Blue Beast begins to hit his head with the asphalt of the road, each blow causing hundreds of cracks and a large number of seismic tremors.

But, the headshots are helping somewhat. In his gaze, a kind of clarity appears, as if he's waking up from a long sleep.

Ladybug biting her lip, she carries her mate and hides him in her chamber. Then she climbs down the window to get a closer look at what's going on.

"Are you okay? Are you an Akuma who is rebelling against Papillon or are you something else?" Ladybug asks, not knowing what else she can do with this individual.

For more or less nine months, Ladybug has only dealt with Papillon and the Akuma he creates.

The heroine of Paris didn't have to deal with more exotic issues, such as Mutants, aliens, laboratory experiments or supernatural creatures.

For these cases there are the X-Men, Fantastic Four, Avengers or Doctor Strange

The Blue Beast abruptly stands up.

Ladybug steps back, ready to use her weapon in case the newcomer starts acting violent again.

The creature joins hands to form a Mudra, setting of hands, used for meditative and religious purposes.

The "Akuma" sets the palms up overlapping the fingers of the right hand over those of the left, extended, from the middle to the little finger.

Bend the index fingers at right angles making them join on the outside at the level of the second phalanx.

Rest your thumbs flat on your index fingers and join the tips of your thumbs together, as if to form two close circles between each thumb and forefinger.

For a moment nothing happens, but slowly, the Blue Beast begins to speak words.

"Wude: Jin bao, Jibing, Bao da, Ding gong, Anmin, He zhong, Feng cai." The Blue Beast is listing the 7 virtues of martial morality.

The creature's size begins to decrease, losing almost all muscle mass and inhuman traits.

'I don't understand what's going on, but if it's gotten smaller it means it's gotten easier to manage, right?' Think Ladybug, trying to look at the positive side of the situation.

Clearly, the heroine of Paris is unaware of the Bishōnen Line tropes.

"Bushido: Gi, Yu, Jin, Rei, Makoto, Meiyo, Chugi." He said the shrunken Blue Beast, reciting the Samurai code of conduct.

The creature's appearance undergoes a change, it gets some kind of cosmetic upgrade.

The "Akuma" is a two-metre behemoth, with an imposing and well-developed physique, as if straight out of a heavyweight competition.

Now, the "Akuma" is just over 170 centimeters tall. Physically he is quite lean and slender, the complete opposite of his previous form.

The semi-armored suit has been replaced by an incredibly skintight suit superior to spandex and leather.

The suit has scarlet colored sections located on the thighs, forearms and biceps.

Over the suit he wears a red hooded and sleeveless sweatshirt.

On the chest of the sweatshirt is a large stylized white symbol, sort of like an upside down U, the ancient Greek letter for Omega.

On the back of the back is a complex crest with a dragon and cross that looks straight out of medieval times.

The face is covered with a kind of red spots reminiscent of the Rorschach test.

Right hand bracelets and rings remained intact from the transformation.

Oddly enough, a silver belt and choker appeared.

A dimensional traveler might say that this newcomer's new look is reminiscent of Scarlet Spider (Ben Reilly), with the slight touch of Rorschach (Walter Kovacs).

" I am the Ultimate Life Form, the Evolutionary Apex, the Alpha and Omega of this galaxy. Nothing and no one can control me!" He proclaims the "Akuma", returning to the driving seat of his own body.

'This is going to be one of those long weird days.' Think Ladybug, having a feeling that things will get much more complicated than usual.

"What happened?" He mutters the strange fellow, touching his forehead, looking almost as confused as Ladybug.

" One moment I'm in space and now I'm in ... Paris." murmurs the strange fellow, realizing his position thanks to the view of the Eiffel Tower.

"What am I wearing?" He questions the strange individual, discovering that he is wearing a costume reminiscent of Spider-Man.

Noticing Ladybug's presence, he moves his head in her direction.

"Who are you? A jester girl or a Dalmatian girl who confuses white with red?" Said the newcomer, mocking the Ladybug costume.

" You do not know me ?" Ladybug said, surprised that someone doesn't recognize her.

All the Akuma know about her and Chat Noir, practically the first things they get from Papillon is the mission to defeat them and take their Miraculous.

" I don't care who or what you are, I have a bad headache and a golden fox to find.

So, goodbye and good luck getting yourself a better costume." Said the strange fellow, turning 180° and starting to walk away from Ladybug and the devastated neighborhood as if nothing interesting had happened.

"You're not going anywhere, you have to answer my questions first." Ladybug said, using her hand to capture the strange individual's right arm.

"Little girl, you don't know me and I don't know us." Said the newcomer as he untied himself from Ladybug's yo-yo.

"But we're both crazy enough to dress up like comic book characters and we're having a really bad time.

We can act like reasonable people and pretend we've never met. So each of us can carry on with our own strange life." He proposes the strange fellow, trying to reason with Ladybug, not wanting to waste his energy in pointless conflict.

" I am Ladybug, protector of Paris, I can't let an unstable stranger roam my city." Ladybug said, refusing the deal without a second thought.

"Trivial name and an awful costume. Paris has pretty basic standards in terms of crazy costumes." The stranger murmurs, minimally impressed by Ladybug's words.

" Bug-girl, I'm Arkan Bloodedge, the red rebel." Arkan said, they give his name to the heroine of Paris.

'Arkan, where did I hear this name?' Think Ladybug, you could swear you've heard this name somewhere before.

Burrow of Bunny is a spherical pocket dimension full of windows.

Through these windows, the owner of Rabbit Miraculous can open a portal which one can use to view all events of the past, present and future, as well as exit the pocket dimension and travel to any point in space and time.

Currently in the Burrow of Bunny is Alix Kubdel, aka Bunnyx, a rabbit-themed superhero.

Bunnyx, she wears a vivid arctic blue jumpsuit with a white section going from her chest to the middle of her thighs with a black lining and with a small sapphire blue–colored circle on each side of her torso and the front of her thighs.

The white part has black-edged pockets at her stomach, and she has a black turtleneck with a white cotton ball attached and white gloves that goes almost to the elbows with a black lining and a small sapphire blue–colored circle at the front, under the line.

Her feet are white until the middle of her legs with a black lining and a small sapphire blue–colored circle at the front, under the line, on each side, and the soles are black.

Her mask is blue at the top, and white at the bottom.

She has white rabbit ears, which have black lining, and are baby blue on the insides.

Her tool, an umbrella which is white on the outside, white and baby blue on the inside, with a white handle, is attached to her back when not in use.

The Rabbit Miraculous, a white and blue pocket watch, is stored in her pocket.

Because of how dangerous her powers are, Bunnyx is "the hero of last resort," the one who only steps in when all other heroes have failed, or when Apocalypse How is the only alternative.

But right now, Bunnyx isn't working to save the timeline, instead just watching nostalgic moments from his childhood.

"It's fun to see my friends' adventures again when they were young." Bunnyx mutters, watching from the window as Befana is defeated by Ladybug and Chat Noir.

Bunnyx made the time go by, skipping the boring parts of her friends' lives.

At first glance the timeline appears to have remained intact, until the bunny-girl noticed a drastic change.

At first glance, the timeline appears to have remained intact, until the bunny-girl notices a drastic change.

"When Paris Was Hit by a Meteorite!?" exclaims Bunnyx, not believing what she is seeing with her eyes.

A kind of small meteorite formed by a substance similar to tar has fallen in the middle of Paris, very close to Ladybug's house.

Moving forward in time, Bunnyx saw a blue and black colored creature with

the powers of Spider-Man fighting his friends.

The further he looks forward, Bunnyx is able to see bigger and bigger changes in the timeline.

Marinette befriends a girl named Luz Noceda and gets to know her friends: Adeline, Anne, Marcy and Sasha.

Kagami takes fencing lessons from a boy named Bruce Bahamut Belmont and a scary girl named Wednesday Addams.

Anthropomorphic animals from the planet Mobius roam the streets of Paris and help the heroes defeat the Akuma ?

Three cute pointy-eared boys are fighting vampires and werewolves in the night!?

A mad, bald scientist with a ridiculous mustache threatens the heroes of Paris with a creature called Metal!?

A girl named X-23 is crossing the border of the country, with a strange little girl asking where can she find her father!?

International criminal organizations like HYDRA and AIM fought on the soil of Paris!?

Alternate versions of American super-heroes and super-villains, coated in a black goo, battle a pyramid-shaped spaceship!?

Horrific aliens are destroying huge portions of France as they take on a magical family of heroes!?

" Marinette is kissing a girl, that girl is Kagami!" shouts Bunnyx, considering the last scene as the straw overflowing the glass.

The entire timeline that Bunnyx has known and protected is becoming unrecognizable, a butterfly effect has changed the whole story and Paris is paying the consequences with blood.

"Someone changed history. I have to erase that meteorite or my life will never be as I remember it." declares Bunnyx, preparing to do his job and protect the "right" timeline.

"I can't let you do that." A voice declares, coming from behind Bunnyx.

The bunny-girl turns to see that in the Burrow of Bunny stands a young man in his early twenties, wearing a faded gray jacket with off-white cuffs, silver buttons, black trousers and strappy leather boots and a scarf red.

He also wears a hood, which is part of the tunic, with which he covers his face as well as his hair, but his mouth and nose are visible, albeit barely.

"Who are you!? Are you responsible for this change in the timeline!? Do you have any idea what you are doing!" He declares Bunnyx, pulling out his umbrella, his main weapon.

"I am Woz, the scribe and chronicler of the greatest Demon King that ever lived." declares Woz, making the much-needed introductions.

"I did nothing but give a little push in the right direction. If that meteorite had fallen in the middle of the ocean, my Waga Maou would have missed the opportunity to grow and broaden his horizons." Woz said, with a smile proud of what he did.

In the grand scheme of things, Paris and Team Miraculous is a waste of potential and heroes.

Ladybug and Chat Noir started out great, but turned out to be pranks in the end." Woz said, with a slight contempt in his voice, considering Ladybug's decisions, a strong sign of a weak and incompetent leader.

"Don't speak ill of my friends! Your actions have caused drastic changes in history, resulting in the deaths of tens of thousands of people!" Shouts Bunnyx, unable to be silent and listen to this guy's slander.

"Paris is a fertile ground for my Demon King and his Klyntar to grow in the best possible way.

Your pathetic stories finally have real meaning, to be a stepping stone to my Waga Maou, who will save and lead the world to greatness." Woz said, feeling no form of displeasure or regret for his actions.

" You are crazy !" She declares Bunnyx, ready to fight with the strange fellow, so she can go fix the timeline.

"No, I'm a mere servant, willing to steer my Waga Maou in the right direction, even if that means, fighting pathetic rebels who don't know their purpose in the story." He declares Woz, losing his smile, having to stop Bunnyx from ruining his plans.

Bunnyx and Woz have started fighting each other, each protecting what they consider to be the right path of the timeline.

Klyntar Symbiote (Marvel Comics Symbiotes)(Free): This is what you're here for, you have your very own Klyntar Symbiote. It starts relatively weak, able to make an ordinary human slightly stronger than Spider-Man with proportionate enhancements to speed, healing, and toughness, as well as the ability to generate a handful of thick tentacles or dozens of thinner tendrils for a variety of purposes .

Your symbiote can produce fangs and claws as well, as well as simple melee weapons like blades or bludgeons.

Additionally, your other both feeds on and sustains you: As long as you're bonded, you can go without food and water indefinitely and your symbiote can exchange oxygen with the environment for you and recycle the CO2 you produce back into oxygen, letting you breathe underwater, go without having to manually breathe if need be, and last months without breathing at all in a pinch.

Your symbiote can protect you from all but the strongest of supernatural diseases, can help regulate your body chemistry, and slows your aging to a crawl.

However, it can't keep you alive forever and is highly vulnerable to extreme heat and loud noises.

A heat wave or a fireworks show isn't going to do more than make it uncomfortable, but anything legitimately dangerous is far more so to it.

The good news, however, is that heat is pretty much the only way to kill it, barring exotic effects.

This perk can be freely merged with other perks representing symbiotic entities attached to your body unless such a perk has an import fee.

Finally, you gain access to the following Perks while bonded to your symbiote, though upgrades must be purchased for the listed price and you are permitted to opt out of ones you don't want or need.

Alien Costume (Marvel Comics Symbiotes)(Free): A symbiote! Your symbiote.

The same one you get from the Klyntar Symbiote Perk.

It can shapeshift to resemble any outfit you can imagine, and due to being an item as well as a perk it can be imported into any costume, outfit, or symbiotic organism items you may already have or gain in the future.

If destroyed it will regenerate from traces of itself left in your body within a few weeks but, as an independent organism, will not automatically return if separated though it will be back by the next jump if all else fails.

Your Other (Marvel Comics Symbiotes)(Free): Your symbiote.

The same one represented by the Klyntar Symbiote Perk and the Alien Costume Item.

It has a personality highly compatible with yours and more or less shares your values, its character developing as yours does.

It can also separate and act independently of you, in which case you'll lose access to its powers for the duration.

As it is a companion, any symbiotic companions you already have can be freely imported into it and it can be imported as a companion in future jumps.

If you are rendered unconscious it can pilot your body for you, but will only do so with your permission by default.
