Am I seeing double? Because Reflekta is next! Hope you all enjoy.
Entry #32
Picture day is here and I pray to the Ancestors that I don't have to sit next to Chloe. I don't want to hear a thing from her big, bratty mouth.
Opening Intro(Could Have Been Me by The Struts)(I don't own the song)
In his room, Drake meditating, focusing his elemental energy. He is trying to use powers in his civilian form. From the blue gem necklace around Drake's neck, the hologram of Ignitus is monitoring the young man with Spyro and Cynder.
"Focus your energy and slowly unleash the dragon within you." The Chronicler said as Drake creates a small fireball in his hands. Then there was a knock on the door, causing Drake to lose his focus and making the mini fireball disappeared. Quickly, He disabling the Ignitus hologram and shoving Spyro and Cynder in his fanny pack.
"Come in." Drake said. The door opened, revealing Ashley.
"Are you ready for school? You don't want to be late for picture day, right?" She asked. Drake nodded as he grabbed his bag and headed out.
It was picture day at Francoise Dupont High School, as Vincent was taking pictures of the classes.
"Alright, everybody look at the camera. Hahaha, they're perfect! Say spaghetti!" He said to Ms Mendeleiev's class.
"Spaghetti!" The students said as their picture was taken. This got a laugh from Adrien as he, Nino, and Drake wait for their classes' photo.
"Thank you kids, you've been wonderful." Vincent said as the class gets ready. "Ok, time to flash your pearly whites, guys! You kids take a seat in the front bench. Quickly please, I've got sixteen other classes to shoot."
"The new album is really good." Adrien whisper to Drake, who nodded.
"Well, next row! Hmmm...You, you, you and you go stand on the rear bench, please." Vincent said as he points to Nathaniel, Alya, Sabrina, and Chloe.
"Wait just one minute! I'm supposed to be in the middle row, right next to Adrien. Preferably the center. Look, we're the same size!" Chloe complained as she waves her hand between the blonde model and herself.
"Nah, go stand in the back row, behind the rest." Vincent denied.
"How dare you, put me behind the rest? Do you know who my father is? " Chloe asked.
"Is he a photographer?" Vincent asked, getting a gasp from Chloe and chuckle from Drake.
"NO! He's-" She said, only to be interrupted.
"Bummer, I could really use an assistant. Now hurry up and take your place, or I'll put you up front with the babies!" Vincent said, causing Chloe to back off with a growl, while Drake bursts out laughing. "The rest of you boys, go stand in the middle row."
"It's no big deal Chloe! As long as we're all in the same photo, right?" Adrien said to the blonde brat.
"Perfect! You guys are awesome! Now stop squirming and let's get this photo shot!" Vincent said, about to take photo, only to be stopped by Marinette.
"Uh, excuse me sir, you forgot Juleka." The bluenette said, pointing at the mentioned girl, who was looking in a mirror.
"Huh? Ah sorry, my bad! Go stand in the middle row, between the blonde haired boy and the black haired boy." Vincent said, pointing at Adrien and Drake.
"And you're gonna be right in the center! All eyes will be on you! No more jinxed class photos!" Marinette said as Juleka got into place. Vincent angles the camera for a bit, only to groan in frustration.
"No, this isn't right! Something's not working here!" He shouted.
"Uhh, course it's not working! I'm in the wrong spot!" Chloe complained, only to be ignored.
"You, move over there will you? Lets see..." Vincent said, pointing at Ivan before looking for a place to put him. That's when Mr Damocles walks up.
"Excuse me, but do we have a problem?" He asked.
"It doesn't matter where I put him, it throws the whole picture out of whack!" Vincent said with a sigh.
"My spot is unacceptable!" Chloe shouted as she jumps down a row and starts pushing Juleka, who pushes back.
"That's right Juleka, don't let her push you out of the way!" Marinette cheered.
"Ms. Bourgeois, behave yourself!" Ms Bustier ordered.
"Hey! Nobody asked you loudmouth!" Chloe yelled at Marinette.
"This isn't gym class, you know Chlo!" Adrien said.
"Why do I feel like something bad is going to happen?" Drake groaned as he pinches the bridge of his nose.
"You, over here, you here, and you here." Vincent said as he made new arrangements. "There, perfect!"
"Uh, no! It isn't! It's not perfect at all! I'm totally not next to Adrien!" Chloe once again complained, causing Drake, Marinette, and Adrien to sigh.
"Please Chloe, we still have sixteen classes to photograph!" Mr Damocles shouted before turning to Vincent. "Go ahead Vincent."
"Say spaghetti!" The photographer said.
"Spaghetti!" Drake and his classmates said, only for the camera to show a low battery symbol symbol.
"Oh, I don't believe this! I'm sorry, I have to go and fetch another battery. Nobody move!" Vincent said.
"Can I go to the bathroom?" Juleka asked.
"Yes Juleka, but hurry!" Ms Bustier said.
"Ms. Bustier! He said nobody is to move!" Mr Damocles shouted.
"It's an emergency sir!" Ms Bustier countered.
"Oy vey..." Drake groaned.
A while later, Vincent returned with a new battery in his camera.
"We're back in business!" He said as Chloe jumps down onto Juleka's spot.
"Hey! What are you doing? Where's Juleka!" Marinette demanded.
"How'd she get here?" Adrien muttered as Drake groaned.
"Urgh, Who cares? At last, I'm in the right spot!" Chloe said in a snobbish tone.
"I want you to flash your best smiles! Because it's the last time we are doing this!" Vincent said as he ready's the camera.
"OH WAIT!" Marinette shouted, but it was too late, as Vincent took the picture.
"Thanks kids!" The photographer said as Drake decided to leave. Arriving at the boy's bathroom, and confirming that he was alone, Drake unzipped his fanny pack.
"Guys, I have a feeling a Akuma might appear." Drake said as Spyro and Cynder fly out of the pack.
"No doubt about it, considering the chaos that just happened." Spyro said.
"And no doubt Chloe have a hand in it." Cynder groaned.
"Here we go again. Transform Me!" Once Drake turned into Dragnarok, he held out a peace sign. "Don't Dare the Dragon!"
Sneaking around the school, Dragnarok manages to get to the school grounds.
"A large crowd will surely attract our villain of the week." The draconic hero said. Just as he expected, Reflekta appeared.
"Hello!" She said to the startled crowd.
"What? Who-who are you?" The principle asked nervously.
"Nobody's ever noticed me! But those days are over! But from now on, everybody will notice me because everybody will look like me! Time to get a new look!" Reflekta said before firing a beam that transformed the Principle and Vincent into duplicates of herself. "Soon there will be Reflektas everywhere!" As she continues transforming people, everyone else started panicking. "No need to panic! Who doesn't love an extreme makeover? Nobody leaves here! Hahahaha! Soon everyone in Paris will look like me, including Chloe Bourgeois!"
"Just as I expected." Dragnarok said before flying down to the scene.
"Chloe Bourgeois? Have you seen Chloe Bourgeois?" The villain demanded.
"You got other things to worry about." Dragnarok said as landed in front of the villain.
"Dragnarok... you too will be given a makeover!" Reflekta shouted before firing beams at Dragnarok, only for the draconic hero to dodge each one and fire back wind buzzsaws.
"Yo! Check it! Cat Noir is gonna save us!" Nino suddenly said. Dragnarok and Reflekta noticed the feline hero before the latter started firing at him.
"Okay, change of plan." Cat Noir muttered as he dodges the ray.
"Help us Cat Noir! Dragnarok! I don't know how longer I can stand being in this body!" Ivan said as he was a Reflekta duplicate.
"Cataclysm!" Cat Noir shouted as he tries to use his power, only to get hit by a ray and turned into a Reflekta copy.
"Damn, you got ugly." Dragnarok muttered as he stared that the used to be feline hero.
"Much better! I hate cats!" The villain taunted.
"Cataclysm!" Cat Noir Reflekta said, only for nothing to happen. "Huh? What? My ring, my Miraculous, it's gone!"
Dragnarok eyes widen at that. He then noticed a butterfly light mask appearing on the villain's face.
"Probably Hawk Moth scowling her for make Cat Noir's Miraculous impossible to take." Dragnarok muttered to himself.
"Don't worry, I'll take care of it!" Reflekta said to her master before cackling. "Where is Chloe Bourgeois!?" She then ran into the school.
"Hey! We're not done here!" Dragnarok shouted as he chased after the villain.
"Chloe, where are you!?" Reflekta shouted as she heads to the principal's office, with Dragnarok on her heels. Once she entered the office, she found her target. "There you are at last! Chloe Bourgeois!"
"Who are you?" The brat demanded.
"Take a good look at me because I am your future face!" The villain replied.
"Eugh! Gross!" Chloe gagged. But before she could escape, she got zapped by Reflekta's ray. Dragnarok, who entered the office just in time to witness the transformation, bursts out laughing. "What in the? Do you realize how much my outfit cost!?"
"You should be thanking me! You look a thousand times better looking like this!" Reflekta taunted before starting to laugh herself. "You won't get rid of me by locking me in the bathroom this time!"
"She did WHAT?!" Dragnarok roared, immediately stopped laughing and glared at Chloe with glowing, white, soulless eyes. That's when Ladybug appears, jumping in front of the villain.
"Juleka, stop this now!" The spotted hero demanded.
"I'm not the Juleka nobody notices anymore! Now, I'm the unmistakable Reflekta! I'm sure you'll love your new image, Ladybug!" The villain said.
"Thanks but no thanks, I prefer the one I've got!" Ladybug said.
"Are you sure? Ask Cat Noir! I'm sure he loves his new look!" Reflekta said before firing beams at Ladybug and Dragnarok, only for them to dodge. "Soon, like everyone else you will look just like me!" Ladybug tries to punch the villain, only for Reflekta to grab her arm. "But first, I'm gonna take your earrings as a trophy!"
Before Dragnarok could do anything, Cat Noir Reflekta came in with an army of people who were also transformed.
"Time to face off!" He said, before facing his army. "Catch her!"
The army charges at her, only for the villain to jump on them, using their heads as platforms, and escapes.
"Oh no you don't!" Dragnarok said as he flies after her.
As Dragnarok follows Reflekta around Paris, he launches spheres of wind at the villain, only for her to dodge and transform anyone nearby into duplicates. That's when Dragnarok noticed Ladybug on a nearby TV.
"People of Paris! Reflekta is not invincible! You can help, all you have to do is put on a disguise! Then I'll be able to spot the real Reflekta and bring her down!" She said.
"That idiot! Didn't she take into account that Reflekta might see this?!" Dragnarok shouted. He then noticed Reflekta heading to the TVi Studio with a transformed Mayor. Groaning, Dragnarok quietly follows behind them.
Arriving at the studio, Reflekta had the transformed Mayor go in first. Once he entered, a familiar yo-yo wraps around him.
"Gotcha!" Ladybug shouted.
"The akuma has to be in her bracelet!" Cat Noir Reflekta said.
"Checkmate, Reflekta!" Ladybug said before breaking her mirror bracelet, only for nothing to happen. "Huh? This isn't the real one!"
"I'm sorry, she promised that she'd changed me back if I tricked you." The transformed Mayor apologized as the real Reflekta walks in, cackling.
"Mayor Bourgeois?" Ladybug said in shock.
"Did you think that Reflekta wouldn't see your little broadcast?" Dragnarok asked as he walks in. "I get what you were trying to do, but still, that was stupid."
"Hey!" Ladybug said in indignity. That's when a Odonata flies in and lands on the real Reflekta's mirror bracelet.
"Greetings Reflekta, I am Damselfly, and I bestow upon you the power to control you're duplicates." Damselfly said.
"Thank you, Damselfly." Reflekta said before raising her bracelet, creating a green glow. Suddenly, Cat Noir Reflekta and Andre Reflekta eyes turned green before they charged at the two heroes like zombies.
"Cat Noir?" Ladybug asked before the transformed hero grabs her. The transformed Mayor tried to grab Dragnarok, only to get punched in the face. Suddenly, more duplicates barged into studio, surrounding the two heroes.
"We're surrounded!" Ladybug shouted.
"Well observed, Captain Obvious." Dragnarok snarled. That's when he took a stance. "You might want to hold on to something."
Before Ladybug could ask, Dragnarok performs the Wind Fury, blasting the Reflekta army away. The real Reflekta landed on her mirror bracelet, breaking it and releasing the Akuma.
"Akuma... Get it..." Dragnarok growled as small wind current blew around his body.
"No more evildoing for you, little akuma. Time to de-evilize!" Ladybug said before throwing her yo-yo, capturing the akuma. "Gotcha!" She then releases the now purify butterfly. "Bye bye, little butterfly. Miraculous Ladybug!" Ladybug throws her yo-yo into the air, returning everyone back to normal selves. Reflekta then turns back into Juleka.
"Pound it!" Ladybug and Cat Noir fist-bumped as Dragnarok flies away.
"You might've pulled it off today, Ladybug but everything is not as it appears to be! Watch out Ladybug! I'll destroy you when you least expect it." Hawk Moth shouted angrily.
"Like a viper in the grass..." Damselfly hissed as the window closes.
That the park, everyone was getting ready for a redo on the class picture.
"Okay, we're all good here, ready?" Vincent asked.
"This photo was a good idea, Marinette!"
"Yeah, this time everyone will be in it." Drake said.
"Thanks guys!" Marinette said with a blush.
"Like I'd want to be part of their stupid photo anyway! Ridiculous! Utterly ridiculous!" Chloe complain as she stands off to the side. That's when the picture was taken.
"The class photo curse is broken!" Rose said excitedly.
"Thank you, Marinette!" Juleka said. Marinette smiles while Drake gives her a thumbs-up.
Later that day, in his room, Drake was tell Ignitus what has happened.
"My, that's some adventure." The Chronicler said with amusement. "And I say you're ready to learn your next element."
"Are you sure?" Drake asked.
"Indeed. See you in your dreams." Ignitus said before disappearing.
"Can wait to have my next element!" Drake said with excitement, unaware the Ashley was silently listening in.
That's Reflekta. See you in the next chapter.
