"Yeah, I know Garchomp." The Professor told his Pokémon. "I'm not so sure how I'll see them either."
He was alone in the lab with no one around to keep him company except the Pokémon. He enjoyed this time that he had with them. He and his Garchomp were checking up on the previously sick Froakie, who was doing much better after a few days of rest. The two shared a glance before a figured appeared behind them.
"Well hello Professor" she said "I heard you wanted to see me."
"Ledyba!" He was pleased, but a bit surprised "I didn't even send an invitation yet."
"I overheard one of your assistants talk about with her friends." She continued "Torracat will be here soon. But for now it's just me."
"That's fine. You too work together well." He smiles
"That flame-head is a bit of a flirt." She admits "But overall, he's rather sweet."
"Awww. I didn't know you felt like that, Bugaboo." She heard Torracat's voice.
"How'd I know you'd show up exactly after I said that." They made it a game to attempt to appear out of the shadows like ZubatMan, one of their favorite heroes. Torracat was winning.
"I'm just like the night, M'lady. You can't catch this skitty." He boosted his own ego.
How Torracat could be so different than Adrien was a mystery to both of them. But it was amusing to always see his attitude take a complete 180.
"Well, I'm glad you too showed." Sycamore continued "I should let you know, I'm one of the few people in the city besides you guys who knows how Miraculous's work. And I'm more than willing to help you guys out if you need it."
"I'm assuming you want us to reveal our identities." Torracat quickly determined
"Well, when you're ready." Sycamore was ready to patient with these heroes. He realized they needed time to warm up to their powers before they warmed up to him. "I'm more worried about the situation that arrived from the last two supervillain attacks."
"Bubbler and Stormy Weather." Ledyba concluded
"Yes. I'm not so sure what those weird creatures were that came out of their weapons."
"My guide tells me that they are called akuma's." Ledyba answers "They come from the power of the Venonat Miraculous. Apparently only I have the power to purify them, and they apparently prey off negative emotions to create supervillains. They hide in items such as Stormy Weather's Umbrella and Bubbler's Wand."
"I see." The professor concludes. "That brings me to another situation. I'm worried about whoever the young man was that got turned into the Bubbler. Stormy Weather needed serious help after being free of the "akuma"'s control."
Torracat adds "Plus, the fact that he just disappeared afterwards is not a good sign."
"I see." Ledyba adds "So you want us to look into that?"
"Yes. I would. Very much so." Sycamore suddenly gets a call on his phone. Sycamore answers it, it seems urgent. "There seems like there's a sighting of The Bubbler."
"Seriously?" Torracat seemed surprised
"If you two can go and maybe help him, that could be appreciated"
"Of course" Ledyba confirms as they both head out.
Alya is on her way home from the Pokémon Center. Rotom floats next to her. "I'm glad you had fun, Rotom."
Alya suddenly gets a next on her phone.
Marinette: Whatever you do, do not go to the Lysander Caffe tonight? Supposedly there's trouble going down there.
Alya: Okay, can do.
Obviously her friend was concerned for her safety. But she completely forgot about Lady Wifi. Lady Wifi would show up while Alya stayed out of it. She smirked to herself.
The Bubbler stands on the building of the Lysander Caffe. It's been a while since the place was closed down. And now it was a hot spot for illegal dealings because it was abandoned.
Bubbler was lucky to find out this information, and he was surprised to find himself holding the wand once more and taking the same mantle that he fought the heroes with. But that wasn't him and he's excepted that. And he swore, this time, he's only using the mantle for good. This time he had his Premarina with him, the Pokémon was sure to help him in this fight.
Several shady figures waited, not noticing him. So he continued to wait them out. He suddenly saw what he was looking for. The truck full of black bags. He wasn't sure what was in them, but if these people were who he thought they were, he needed information from them.
"Premarina, use Moonblast on the truck." Premarina did so and as that happened, the park truck was pushed to its side, revealing all the weapons inside the truck. The men there were worried at first, but after seeing that no weapons went off, they fired theirs at the person they saw up on the roof. "Ice Beam" he shouts as his Pokémon freezes all the bullets where they were. "Now use Misty Terrain."
A puff of pink smoke appeared and surrounded the whole area. Bubbler ran around with his wand and the next thing the men knew they were all trapped in bubbles.
However, as the Misty Terrain started to clear, he heard someone shout "Not so fast, Bubbler!" It was Ledyba. And Torracat was right behind her.
