Time for the next Akuma, The Puppeteer. Before we start, I want to address something.
Drake/Dragnarok does not have the "Power of the Heart". At least, not in a magical sense. Drake, knowing that Vesta was still in Muddy Putty, talked to her in a style similar to a sibling cheering another sibling up. Also, Drake didn't purify the Akuma, he merely expelled it from it's hiding spot, allowing Ladybug to catch it.
Anyway, to for the show.
Entry #35
First Dad... Now Vesta... Hawk Moth, you just written your death sentence.
Opening Intro(Could Have Been Me by The Struts)(I don't own the song)
Drake chuckled to himself as he watched Vesta, Marinette, and Manon playing with Ladybug, Cat Noir, and Dragnarok dolls. The four were in Marinette's room, as the bluenette was babysitting Manon, and Drake brought Vesta over for a playdate.
"Here I am, m'lady!" Marinette said, through the Cat Noir doll.
"Glad to see you, Cat Noir!" Manon said through the Ladybug doll.
"Don't forget about me!" Vesta said through the Dragnarok doll.
"Of course you are! I'm the cat's meow!" Marinette said before meowing with a giggle.
"He shouldn't say that!" Manon said that, getting confused looks from Marinette, Vesta, and Drake.
"No?" Marinette asked as Manon shakes her with a frown. That's when Marinette picks up the Ladybug doll. "This is no time to be goofing around, Cat Noir! We gotta capture the baddies' akumas before they–" She then pauses and looks at the little kids. "Actually, what do the baddies want?"
"Uh...we wanna win!" Manon said.
"Yeah, win!" Vesta agreed.
Yeah, but win what?" Marinette asked.
"I don't know. What do they usually want?" Manon asked.
"Depends. Lady Wifi wanted to reveal Ladybug's true identity and Evillustrator wanted to get revenge on a girl for making fun of him! Then there was Rogercop. But the evil Hawk Moth, who makes them bad, wants to take Ladybug's and Cat Noir's jewels from them! Their Miraculouses!" Marinette said, as she picked up the doll of the mention villain.
"And what would happen if he did get them?" Manon asked.
"The bad guys…would win!" Marinette answered.
"What about Dragnarok?" Vesta asked, getting everyone's attention. "What does he have that Hawk Moth wants?"
"I... Really don't know." Marinette said.
"Perhaps he want Dragnarok himself." Drake said, getting confused looks. The young man then picks up a Tech-Head doll. "The villain Tech-Head did say to surrender the Miraculouses AND Dragnarok. Maybe Hawk Moth wants to turn him into a minion."
"I don't want that to happen!" Vesta cried, with tears forming in her eyes.
"Don't worry, I highly doubt that will happen." Drake said with a smirk. That's when Manon spoke up.
"I know! I know what the bad guys want! We want the Miraculous and Dragnarok ! Then we'll win! Forever and ever! I'm gonna get your Miraculous, Ladybug and Cat Noir! And I'm gonna get you too, Dragnarok. You-you goody two-shoeses! You'll be super duper sorry!" She said through the villain dolls.
"You won't get our Miraculouses!" Marinette said through the Ladybug doll.
"And you won't get me!" Vesta said through the Dragnarok doll.
"Oh yeah?" Marinette said before the three had their dolls fight, with Drake watching in amusement. A little later, Marinette's dolls win. "Yay! Ladybug, Cat Noir, and Dragnarok have won again!"
"No fair! You two always win!" Manon said before she started to sob.
"Ladybug, Cat Noir, and Dragnarok always win, and the bad guys always lose." Marinette explained, trying to calm the girl down.
"Yeah, Dragnarok is the best!" Vesta said.
"But you two never let me play with Ladybug, Cat Noir, or Dragnarok!" Manon complained.
"Oh, don't cry! Of course you can play with Ladybug, Cat Noir, and Dragnarok! I'll even let you borrow one of them if you want." Marinette offered. But before anyone could say anything, Nadja walks in.
"I'm back Manon, have you been a good girl?" She asked.
"Mommy! Marinette and Vesta didn't let me win!" Manon said before hugging her mom and sobbed harder. "They didn't play fair and square!"
"Oh Manon, you can't always expect to win!" Nadja said.
"Yes I can! Ladybug, Cat Noir, and Dragnarok always win!" Manon said.
"Well, you're right there! But they're superheroes!" Nadja countered.
"You'll win next time, Manon!" Marinette said.
"Alright, now give the doll back to Marinette." Nadja said, referring to the Ladybug doll the young girl had in her hand.
"NO! I wanna keep it!" Manon shouted. Drake,feeling uncomfortable, decides that it was time to leave.
"I see you guys have something on your hands, but I think it's time for me and Vesta to leave." He said as he grabbed his sister's arm and rushes out the door.
Once they got home, Drake decided to unwind a bit.
"Man, that was awkward." The secret draconic hero said as he lean back in is desk chair.
"Tell me about it." Cynder said as she and Spyro sat on his desk.
"Though, I think you could've handled that better." Spyro said.
Before he could say anything, Drake's phone signaled that he got a text message.
"What's this?" Drake asked as he checks his phone. It was an invention to the movies from Adrien. "The movies? Well, it has been a while."
With that, Drake has Spyro and Cynder fly into his fanny pack before taking off.
After meeting Adrien at the Subway Station, Drake and his blonde friend were waiting for Marinette and Alya.
"Hope they'll get here soon." Drake muttered.
"Don't worry, I'm sure they'll be here." Adrien said before spotting something. "In fact, I see them right now."
Following the blonde's gaze, Drake saw the girls, with Alya making a nervous Marinette wave her arm. Suddenly, Alya turns into Lady Wifi, who shouts at Marinette from a bit before taking off, with the bluenette following her.
"Excuse me sir, there's a...uh...cat loose on the train!" Adrien said to the Train Manager.
"What? Thanks kiddo!" The Manager said as he opens the doors, causing Adrien to run out. Drake ran after him, only to lose the blonde.
"Damn! Lost him!" Drake growled before spotting a nearby restroom. "Best let Dragnarok handle this."
Going into the restroom and, seeing that it was empty, goes into one of the stalls and let's out Spyro and Cynder.
"Alya turned into Lady Wifi and I saw no Akuma. Something is going on." Drake said.
"Maybe it's a different Akuma." Spyro said.
"One that might resurrect old villains." Cynder added.
"Best stop who is behind this. Transform Me!" Drake shouted before transforming into Dragnarok. Once the transformation was complete, Dragnarok held his hand out into a peace sign. "Don't Dare the Dragon!"
Exiting the restroom, Dragnarok spotted Cat Noir heading towards Marinette, so he decide follow him.
"Hey, that was Lady Wifi. Did that villain say anything to you?" Cat Noir asked.
"Anything important?" Dragnarok asked, making his presence known.
"Uh, I'm not sure, but her voice belonged to a little girl I babysit. It's as if she was controlling my friend, Alya—I mean, Lady Wifi—from a distance. This is so weird." Marinette said in a nervous tone.
"And what was this talk about dolls?" Cat Noir asked, having hear some of Lady Wifi's shouting.
"I've got some dolls she likes to play with." Marinette answered.
"Your dolls? Okay, where do you live?" Dragnarok asked, despite already knowing the location.
"12 Rue Gotlib." Marinette said.
"We'll take care of it!" Cat Noir said as he runs off with Dragnarok close behind.
Once the two got to the Bakery, they found Lady Wifi in Marinette's room. Before anyone could say anything, Ladybug swings in.
"Hey kitty, up here!" She said before landing and looks at Lady Wifi. "Puppeteer! Such a shame, it's really not nice to steal from your babysitter."
"Puppeteer?" Dragnarok asked.
"Breaking and entering are grounds for a serious time-out." Cat Noir said, going along with Ladybug.
"Soon I'll get your Miraculouses, you goody two-shoeses!" Puppeteer said through Lady Wifi.
"There's only one good two-shoes around here and I'm not her!" Cat Noir said.
"Freeze!" The controlled Lady Wifi fires at them, only to miss and hit a Adrien poster. Strangely, this causes Ladybug to panic and blush.
"Remember how we defeated Lady Wifi the first time?" She asked.
"Take out the wi-fi signal! Gotcha!" Cat Noir said as goes out the window and heads towards the roof. Meanwhile, Ladybug grabs the doll version of her, only to get paused with Dragnarok. Lady Wifi walks up to Ladybug, probably intending to take her Miraculous, only for the pause buttons to disappear, allowing Ladybug to grab the villain's phone.
"Looks like you've just lost your signal, Wifi!" The spotted hero said as she smashes the phone, only for no Akuma to appear. "Where's the akuma?"
That's when Lady Wifi throws a couch at her and Dragnarok before disappearing. Once they got up, Cat Noir returns.
"Did you capture her akuma?" He asked.
"She didn't have one!" Ladybug shouted.
"How's that possible?" Dragnarok asked.
"She's controlled by Puppeteer! She must have the akuma!" Ladybug said.
"Why, Lady Wifi's nothing but a puppet! Please tell me you got the Cat Noir doll!" Cat Noir said.
"And the Dragnarok doll." Dragnarok added.
"Sorry, only this one." Ladybug said, holding up the Ladybug doll.
"We'd better find her fast before she takes care of the other dolls! And me!" Cat Noir said. That's when his ring started to beep.
"Cat Noir, your ring! You're about to transform back!" Ladybug said.
"Thank you, Captain Obvious." Dragnarok muttered.
Don't let her make me a puppet! You know I like to be in command!" Cat Noir said in a panic.
"You mean second in command. Call me when you're back in business." Ladybug said. Once Cat Noir left, Ladybug uses her yo-yo to call Nadja.
"Yes? What? Ladybug!?" The reporter asked in shocked.
"Where are you?" Ladybug asked.
"At the TV station." Nadja answered.
"Is your daughter with you?" Ladybug asked.
"Yes! She's playing downstairs! Why? Is everything okay, Ladybug?" Nadja asked in a worried tone.
"Yes! Just don't move. I'll be right there!" Ladybug said as she hung up and took off with Dragnarok right behind her.
Once they got to the TVi Studio, Ladybug and Dragnarok were in the lobby, helping people evacuate the building.
"She's still here in the building! We need you all outside!" Ladybug said.
"Single file line everyone." Dragnarok said.
"NO! I want to find my daughter!" Nadja shouted, refusing to budge.
"I'll bring your daughter back, Mrs Chamack. It'll help me more to know you're safe." Ladybug said as she pushes the reporter out the door. That's when Ladybug got a call from Cat Noir.
"Have you located her?" he asked.
"Inside the KIDZ+ TV building!" Ladybug said.
"Got it!" The feline hero said before hanging up. That's when Ladybug felt a tap on her shoulder. This causes Ladybug to wrench the person's arms, revealing it to be Cat Noir.
"I'm OK, not a puppet yet! But I'd love to find the akuma before that changes." The feline hero said as Ladybug lets him go with a embarrassed look while Dragnarok had a amused look.
"Sorry!" The spotted hero apologized before the three faced the door that stood between them and the Puppeteer. "On three, One...two...three!"
With that, the three heroes burst through the door, just in time to witness Puppeteer creating another puppet.
"Cat Noir! Come to Life!" The villain said as she holds the Cat Noir doll.
"No!" Cat Noir cried before being put under the Puppeteer's control.
"Cat Noir! No!" Ladybug cried as Dragnarok growls in annoyance.
"Gimme that Ladybug doll! I'm gonna get your Miraculous!" Both Puppeteer and Cat Noir said at the same time.
"Not so fast, rugrat!" Ladybug said before throwing her yo-yo at the Puppeteer's wand, only for the villain to use Cat Noir to block the yo-yo. That's when Lady Wifi, along with Evillustrator and Rogercop, came into the room to help the villain.
"This isn't good." Dragnarok muttered as the controlled puppets surrounds them.
"Sorry Cat Noir!" Ladybug said before facing their foes." Two against five!? That's not very fair and square!"
That's when a Odonata flies in and lands on Puppeteer's wand.
"Greetings, Puppeteer. I am Damselfly, and I bestow upon you more dolls for you to play with." Damselfly said.
"Thank you, Damselfly." Puppeteer said as dolls of Robin Goodfellow and Tech-Head appeared.
"Robin Goodfellow! Come to Life!" In her room, Scarlet turns into Robin Goodfellow.
"Tech-Head! Come to Life!" In his apartment, Thomas turns into Tech-Head.
The two recently controlled puppet villains then head to the studio. Meanwhile, Evillustrator draws a phone for Lady Wifi.
"Thanks Evillustrator! Now the doll!" Lady Wifi said.
"Is this what you want? Say pretty please!" Ladybug said before grabbing some tape and run off with right beside her. Once they got to the roof, the two heroes hid as the villains got on the roof.
"First we gotta get rid of them, then Puppeteer!" Ladybug said as she shine a light on the villains, blinding them. Ladybug then uses the tape to tie Evillustrator and Rogercop together. Cat Noir hits Ladybug with his baton, only for the spotted hero to use it to throw Cat Noir off the building.
That's when Robin Goodfellow and Tech-Head appeared. The two started launching energy arrows and grenades at the spotted hero, only to blasted aside by an Earth Shot from Dragnarok.
"Thanks." Ladybug said to the draconic hero before facing Lady Wifi. "If you want this doll so badly, come and get it!" She then throws the Ladybug doll to Dragnarok. "Take this and keep it away from them!"
With a nod, Dragnarok took off, with Lady Wifi chasing after him. Flying around the studio, Dragnarok manages to lose her and enters the studio lobby.
"Dragnarok! Come to Life!" Dragnarok's eyes widen at that before he lose control over his body. He still retained his his mind, but he can't control his body as it walks to Puppeteer, handing her the doll.
"Now I'm the winner! Haha!" The villain cheered. That's when Ladybug bursts in.
"Drop that doll, Manon!" The spotted hero ordered.
"I'm not Manon, I'm Puppeteer!" Puppeteer said before having Dragnarok attack Ladybug with Earth Missiles. "You've lost, Ladybug! Ladybug, come to lif-"
Puppeteer was hit by an Earth Missile, thanks to Ladybug tricking the mind controlled Dragnarok into hitting the villain. This causes Puppeteer to drop the doll and her wand. Ladybug picks up the wand and breaks it, releasing the Akuma.
"No more evildoing for you, little akuma. Time to de-evilize!" She 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. Dragnarok then grabs his head, having a headache.
"What happened?" A freed Cat Noir asked.
"That's what I want to know." Dragnarok said.
"You guys were puppets! But don't worry, you didn't do anything foolish!" Ladybug said.
"Good. And Ladybug, FYI, you can pull my heartstrings any day!" Cat Noir said with a wink.
"Hahaha! I think you were better when you sounded like a five-year old girl!" Ladybug joked, getting a pout from Cat Noir and a laugh from Dragnarok.
"No! This cannot be happening!" Hawk Moth shouted in anger, upset at another lost.
"This is starting to get annoying." Damselfly hissed as the window closes.
"Man... My head feels like it was hit by a truck." Drake groaned as he laid down in his bed, holding his head.
"Being mind controlled isn't fun." Cynder said.
"Tell me about it." Drake said before looking at the dragons. "Why didn't you two say anything?"
"We weren't sure if Puppeteer could hear your thoughts, so we didn't want to risk it." Spyro said.
"Understandable." Drake said, before grabbing his head with a groan. "Man... I need a nap."
With that, Drake tucked himself in.
...It almost feels like a drinking game where every time the word "doll" appears, you take a shot...
Anyway, that's Puppeteer, hope you guys enjoyed, and I'll see you next time.
P.S. I don't recommend the drinking game thing. It was a joke, and I don't want anyone suffering from alcohol poisoning.
