As the vines pinned down Ladybug and Cat Noir, Danny went over to Ladybug to save her and her feline-themed partner. But, unfortunately, Ragtash used her flute, making vines grow Blood Blossom on them. This caused Danny to fall to the ground and start to glow red.

"What wrong with Phantom over there?" Cat Noir asked Ladybug.

"I don't know, but I think those flowers weaken him, like some allergy..." Ladybug theorized.

The Blood Blossom weakened Danny, and he was unable to move. Ladybug and Cat Noir saw this and realized that they needed to find a way to get rid of the Blood Blossoms. Then an idea came to Ladybug as she looked at Cat Noir, the vines, and the Blood Blossoms.

"Cat Noir, use your Cataclysm on the vines, and I'll get Danny out of here, away from those flowers." Ladybug explained to her partner.

"But. how will I get both the vines that are pining us down?" Cat Noir asked.

"Trust me, and I got this." Ladybug said with a wink.

Cat Noir trusted Ladybug and readied his power.

"Cataclysm!"

Ladybug wrapped her yo-yo around the vines as Cat Noir touched the vines with his powers. Then, as the Cataclysm went through both vines, Ladybug unwrapped her Yo-Yo around the vines so it wouldn't get hit by the Cataclysm. This freed the two French heroes, and Ladybug went to Danny and grabbed him by the waist.

"Gotcha!" She said as she felt his side accidentally and blushed. "Oh my... he's a lot more defined than I thought..." She whispered to herself.

Ladybug and Cat Noir went to the city to hide from Ragtash. They went to the sewer, and Ladybug placed Danny down to rest from Blood Blossom, weakened his he going to be okay M'lady?" Cat Noir asked as he hid behind the fork in the sewers.

"I don't know Kitty, but I hope he is. We could use his help." Ladybug said in a concerning tone.

Danny slowly began to wake up. He rubs the back of his head.

"I can't believe Sam would use Blood Blossom on me. We're going to have a long talk." He grumbled.

"Are you alright, Danny? Ladybug asked him.

"Yeah, I'm alright, Ladybug, just a little peeved," Danny answered.

"Why did those flowers affect you like that?" Ladybug asked him.

"Well, Blood Blossom is the few things that can weaken ghost and their powers; being around them is like Superman with Kryptonite," Danny explained. "I just learned about that a month ago."

Ladybug nodded at the ghost boy.

"We must find a way to get that flute away from Ragtash." She said her plan.

"But how are we going to do that? With those Blood Blossoms, it would be impossible for me to go up there and grab the flute." Danny asked her.

Ladybug thought for a moment before the sound of Cat Noir's ring went off.

"Uh... you two plan... I gotta... take care of something." He said as he ran off.

Danny, straining to sit up, stared.

"Bathroom break?" He asks.

"Sort of... long story." She said.

"Well, got an idea for dealing with those vines?" He asks.

"Question, would you be able to use your power from a distance?" She asks.

"Yeah," Danny answered.

"So... would you be able to freeze them from their roots?" Ladybug suggested with a smile.

Danny smiled.

"An idea worth trying." He responded.

Ladybug nodded at the ghost boy.

After Cat Noir returned, Ladybug explained what Danny Phantom would do about the Blood Blossoms and the other plants. The cat theme superhero nodded, and the three went out of the sewers.

Danny goes underground to freeze the root of Ragtash's plants.

As Cat Noir and Ladybug searched for the Akumazited villain, the city became more like a jungle. But then, Ragtash's sentimonster came out of the ground with Ragtash playing her flute to piloting it.

The tree monster then waved its trunk-like arms at the heroes, which both dodged in time. Then, Ragtash played a different tone on her flute that caused Venus fly traps to grow and lunge at the two french heroes. However, before the Venus fly traps could attack them, ice began to rise to the roots of the Venus fly traps, freezing them.

'What is going on, Ragtash?' Hawkmoth asked her.

"Danny must be freezing the root of my plants, so they won't be able to move," Ragtash explained.

'Try and stop that ghost child from doing that and attack Ladybug and Cat Noir,' Hawkmoth said.

As Ragtash tried to blow her flute to gain control of the plants, Ladybug did her Lucky Charm that turned into a frisbee.

"What are you going to do with that? Going to play catch with your black cat?" Ragtash taunted.

Ladybug looked around to see how she would use the Lucky Charm and devised a plan to end this fight. She then devised a plan by throwing the frisbee, which bounced in many directions. Finally, after it bounced off a street lamp, it hit Ragtash's flute.

"No!" Ragtash yelled.

"No!" Hawkmoth also yelled.

"Cataclysm!" Cat Noir leaped into the air and touched the flute, turning back into a bullhorn. It then turns into ash.

A butterfly and a feather came out of the bullhorn and started to fly and float away.

"No more evil-doing for you, little Akuma!" Ladybug said as she opened her yo-yo and spun it around.

"Time to de-evilise," she swung the yo-yo at the Akuma and the Amok, catching them as the yo-yo closed.

"Gotcha!" she got the yo-yo back.

She pressed a button on the Yo-yo then it opened to reveal a white butterfly and a feather flying and floating out of the yo-yo. "Bye Bye little butterfly and bye-bye little feather,"

"Miraculous Ladybug!" Ladybug said as she threw the frisbee in the air; magical Ladybug repaired the city's damage.

Danny had seen a lot of things since getting zapped by the ghost portal, but a swarm of magic ladybugs flying around fixing everything after the battle with a supervillain version of Sam was a new one.

Danny came out of the ground after freezing the roots of Ragtash plants. Sam turned back to normal gripping her head. She was about to fall over before Danny reflexively reached out to catch her, steadying Sam on her feet. Chat noir did the same from her other side "give it a minute. First time Akuma at ions can be rough for people."

"What happened," Sam asked, sounding dazed. "I remember feeling ticked off than a voice in my head something about a miraculous something and blood blossoms then nothing," she said. There was a hint of worry in Sam's eyes when she said blood blossoms looking at him.

Danny's upset feelings about Ragtash using blood blossoms against him were gone from how she described the fight. Instead, it sounded like she had been overshadowed, like when Freakshow had Danny under his control and nearly killed Sam in front of a live audience even though he didn't want to hurt her.

She hadn't held it against him, and he'd be a lousy friend if he held a grudge against her for something she did under someone else's control.

After Sam regains her footing, Danny and Chat Noir go to Ladybug, then Chat Noir and Ladybug fist bump. Ladybug looked at Danny, wanting him to join in their celebratory fist bump , which he did. "Pound it," Ladybug and Chat Noir said.

Thanks to ladybug and chat noir, everything is fine now, citizen," Danny said in his Superhero voice. Sam looked relieved and was more steady on her feet while an older-looking man in a suit with a sash walked over.

Danny guessed he was someone important "Ladybug Chat Noir, on behalf of Paris and project Oxygen, I can't thank you enough for stopping Hawkmoth and this violent protester."

"I'll show him violently," Sam seethed quietly. Danny could practically hear her teeth grinding together.

"Mr. Mayor," Ladybug, aka the girl Danny was going to the dance with, said, stepping forward "you can't possibly blame this girl for her actions being Akumatized," she said around them; a crowd was gathering, a lot of them, Danny noticed had signs against something called project oxygen whatever the heck that was.

The mayor shook his head "of course not, Ladybug, but you don't know this girl. She's in my daughter's class, and even when she is not akumatized, she is abrasive and rude. Today, she nearly incited a violent mob to get her way and stop Project Oxygen," the mayor told the superhero snobbishly.

"That's not true," a short girl with multicolored braids declared. A heavyweight boy nodded, both of them waving their signs.

"It was a peaceful protest," a goth girl said beside her; a girl dressed from head to toe in pink nodded fast.

"Sam hasn't done anything violent," she said, "she's nice."

"Not even to Chloe, who deserves it half the time," a dark-skinned girl muttered.

More and more teenagers chimed in, either sticking up for Sam or talking about how much they hate something called project Oxygen the mayor seemed to be so invested in.

There were even adults now joining the teens.

"Ridiculous, utterly ridiculous who cares about a bunch of dumb trees or a freaky Dupain-Chengs psycho American replacement," a snobby blonde said. At the same time, some nerdy-looking redhead nodded, saying how she agreed with Chloe "daddy, can't you just send her back to her country already" she whined loudly, getting more loud protests from well the teenaged protestors.

"Okay, hold on," Danny and the two French superheroes said at the same time, silencing everyone:

"Okay, why don't we all calm down and talk about this rationally before someone else gets turned into a human meat puppet by the Mothman knockoff."

"Human meat puppet," Ladybug whispered as something about that phrase sounded familiar before she shook her head. "Phantom is right. Let's all calm down before someone gets hurt."

Danny nodded gratefully "now, can someone keyword one tell me what Project Oxygen is," Danny asked.

"I can, Mr. Phantom," the girl with the multicolored braids who had first stuck up for Sam said. Danny nodded.

"Yes, thank you-" Danny paused since he didn't know her name.

"Mylene," Chat noir whispered.

"Mylene," Danny said, "can you please tell me what project oxygen is."

Mylene nodded. "Project Oxygen is a plan proposed by the mayor and the fashion designer Gabriel Agreste to cut down all the trees in Paris and replace them with towers that are supposed to do the same thing that trees do naturally artificially," she explained.

Okay

Wow

No wonder Sam got ticked off so easily.

That had to be, undoubtedly, one of the stupidest things Danny had ever heard.

The box ghost plans of 'Doom' made more sense.

Something Danny said that was out loud.

The blonde brat and her daddy, the mayor, looked offended "ridiculous, utterly ridiculous, who do you think you are."

"Someone who knows more about trees, apparently," Danny said. "Mr. Mayor, did you even consider how your machines would run."

"Run," he asked, confused. He hadn't thought of that.

"Yes, what will make the machines do their job? What are you going to use to power them."

"Oh," the mayor said, "well, obviously, the city power grid."

"Right the city power grid, the thing that most likely takes natural resources to generate power and to run the hundreds, maybe thousands of Project Oxygen towers throughout Paris, would mean more power would need to be generated, which means more pollution from the power plants wouldn't make it."

The mayor opened his mouth to argue, but then he realized Danny was right. "I just wanted to do something good for Paris."

Chat noir stepped toward the mayor "if you want to do something good for Paris, Mr. Mayor, maybe you should listen to the people of Paris," the black-clad superhero suggested. He then looked to Sam and Danny "and its guests."

The mayor nodded "you're absolutely right, Chat noir. I'll cancel everything; I'll plant more trees, I'll turn the project oxygen towers already made into recycling bins, I'll, I'll-"

"Apologize to Sam Manson," Mylene suggested.

"Yea, I'll apologize," the mayor said. "Miss Manson, I'm sorry for my words earlier. I hope you could find it in your heart to forgive me."

"DADDY" Chloe yelled, furious at the 'betrayal.'

'Good grief, I feel bad for Sam,' Danny thought, wincing 'she's louder than Ember.'

"Just do your promises, Mr. Mayor, and we'll be even," Sam said, clearly not happy to be talking to the mayor.

The mayor accepted this and went over to talk to a construction crew.

"That was surprisingly easy to change his mind," Danny said.

"Mayor Bourgeois isn't a bad guy though he cares more about his self-image than anything else," Ladybug explained.

"Got it like Montez but dumber," Danny said, nodding.

Seriously what genius thought that project oxygen thing was a good idea?

It sounded more like the evil plan of a Saturday morning cartoon villain than anything else.

After the heroes were done talking to the mayor about Project Oxygen, they left. The French heroes so their identities would not be revealed. At the same time, Danny needs to Amity Park before any ghosts cause trouble while he is gone.

Danny took out the Infimap that he got from Frostbite. " I should thank Frostbite for trusting me with the Infimap," he said.

Flashback

"You need the Infi-Map, oh, Great one?" Frostbite asked.

"Uh, yeah, because I thought of seeing the sight of Paris," Danny sightly lied to the yeti ghost.

"Be careful, Great One. I heard that there's a dangerous villain known as Hawkmoth. He is known for using butterflies to make supervillains, so keep your emotion in check," Frostbite warned.

"I'll keep that in mind, and also, how do you know about this Hawkmoth guy?" Danny asked the snow yeti.

"Don't think we stay in the Ghost Zone, Great one," Frostbite answered.

Danny shrugged his shoulders and left to help out Ladybug on whatever supervillain she was facing right now.

End of flashback

"Maybe I should ask Frostbite if he knows about those ghost-like things Marinette was talking to?" Danny muttered to himself before Ladybug landed next to him.

"Phantom," Ladybug started. "I was wondering why you were truly here in France?"

"Well, um, you see," Danny started to think of a lie to get out of this situation with Ladybug.

Ladybug narrowed her eyes, knowing that Danny Phantom didn't have an answer to her question.

Danny tried to think of an excuse but couldn't come up with one that was believable. Then Danny thought of telling her the half-truth of why he was here.

"Well, I saw you in Amity Park making a portal, so I decided to follow you because I thought you needed some ghostly help," Danny finally answered the Ladybug theme superhero.

Ladybug was now panicking in her mind that Danny might have seen her transform from Marinette into Pegibug. So now she was trying to think of a way to tell Phantom why she was making a portal from Amity Park to Paris.

"Well, I was, um, I was looking for a Miraculous that might have been in your hometown and need to make sure that I can get it before Hawkmoth could learn about it and get it," Ladybug lied to Danny.

Danny nodded even though he wasn't sure that Marinette was looking for a Miraculous so that crazy Franch fruitloop wouldn't get it to become stronger.

"If you need any help finding the Miraculous, give me a call," Danny told her.

"Thanks, Phantom. And thank you again for catching me when Ragtash almost flattened me," Ladybug told him.

"No problem, Ladybug," Danny blushed.

Something about Danny's blush was familiar to Ladybug, but she couldn't put her finger on it.

Danny opened the Infi-Map that created a ghost portal and flew into it as its close. Ladybug combines the horse and Ladybug Miraculous to make a portal back into the Fenton Works to her room.

Ladybug made it to the spare room and transformed back to Marinette. She flopped on her bed and thought about Danny Phantom. She was now wondering if Danny saw her transform into Pegabug.

"Marinette, Marinette," Tikki called out.

"Yeah, Tikki?" Marinette answered.

"Why didn't you ask Danny Phantom if he saw you transform before leaving?" Tikki asked.

"Well, I don't know, Tikki? I panicked and didn't know what to say to him," Marinette replied.

"Maybe we could ask him later on before you have to go home, Marinette," Tikki advised.

"You are right, Tikki, but how will we find him?" Marinette wondered.

The two tried to think up a way of talking to Danny Phantom.

Meanwhile, Danny returns from the Ghost Zone after returning the Infi-Map to Frostbite.

"At least the city of Paris was pretty after Ladybug fixed everything. Next time I go there, maybe there won't be another villain attack from the France version of the fruitloop," Danny said before phasing back to his room.

'I wonder if I should tell Marinette I'm Danny Phantom? I mean, she is cool, sweet, a fun person to be around, and really cute,' Danny thought but tried to shake the blush off his face. 'Maybe I should ask Marinette to be my girlfriend.'

Vlad's lab

Vlad was fixing the test tube with the clone version of Danny Phantom, who only had half of his body.

"Don't worry, my son. I will get the Ladybug Miraculous from Daniel's french lady friend, and you will live," Vlad said to the tube by rubbing it with his hand.

Oh no, it seems that Vlad is going to make his move, and he knows who Ladybug is. How would Danny protect her? Would he have the nerve to ask Marinette to be his girlfriend? Find out next time on The Phantom and Ladybug.'.
