Hello everyone, hoped you had a good Thanksgiving. Today, Team Draconic will be facing against Zombizou! Not only that, but Dragnarok will start getting power-ups of his own. Before we start, I want to address a few things.
To fan-like-irving: Will be addressed in this chapter.
There is also some sad news that I want to share. Kirby Morrow, the voice actor I picked to voice Maven/Grizzly, has passed away. He was the guy who voiced one of my favorite characters from one of my favorite shows, and it is upsetting to see him go.
Rest in Peace Kirby, Rest in Peace...
Anyway, let's get start.
Entry #61
Turns out there are some items that can power-up the Miraculouses, at least temporally. Too bad I can't use any of them. I wonder if there is a way to power-up myself?
Season 2 Opening Intro(Set It Off by Skillet)(I don't own the song)
In Drake's room, our draconic hero was with his grandmother.
"So, your friends had experienced the power-ups from the Miraculouses, huh?" Ashley asked.
"Yep. Fu gave us some potions that allowed them to fight underwater." Drake answered. "By the way... Are you able to make potions?"
"No. I don't have the talent for it, and believe me, I tried." Ashley said with a embarrassed look. "Whenever I try to make one, it always ending in disaster."
"Can you list some examples?" Spyro asked as he and Cynder sat on Drake's shoulders.
"Explosions, hair lost, and temporary blindness to name a few." Ashley said, getting shocked looks from the three.
"Okay..." Drake said before shaking his head. "Anyway, it's too bad I can use any of them, as I wish there was a way to make myself stronger to help out."
"I believe there is a way." A voice spoke up. That's when Drake's pendant lights up, summoning Ignitus' hologram.
"What do you mean Ignitus?" Cynder asked.
"Seeing the potions and their effects gave me an idea." The Chronicler said. "Lately, I've been working on a way to give you a boost in battle, and I just so happened to finish the first of my little pet projects."
"Really?! What is it?" Drake asked in a excited tone.
"Patience Drake. You'll see next time you turn into Dragnarok." Ignitus said before looking at Drake's alarm clock. "I believe you should be heading to school now."
"Oh right!" Drake shouted as he grabbed his bag and put Spyro and Cynder in his fanny pack as Ignitus' hologram dispels. "Later Grandma!"
"Have a good day at school." Ashley said as Drake took off.
Arriving at Francoise Dupont, Drake went through the locker room when he overheard Juleka and Rose talking.
"What are you giving Miss Bustier for her birthday, Rose?" Juleka asked.
"I made her a scrapbook." Rose answered.
"That's right, today is Miss Bustier's birthday..." Drake said before digging in his bag and pulling out a hand-made bracelet "Luckily, I made this a week in advance."
Putting the bracelet back into his bag, Drake hurried to Miss Bustier's classroom.
Somehow being the first one class, Drake immediately gave his present to Miss Bustier.
"Here you go Miss Bustier." Drake said as he handed his teacher the bracelet.
"Thank you Drake." Miss Bustier said as she put the bracelet on her left wrist.
Once Drake sat down, that's when the other student rolling in, and a pile of presents began to rise.
"So, what did you get for Miss Bustier?" Drake whispered to Ombra, Brandish, Maven, and Ingrid.
"I got her a fancy comb." Ombra said.
"Hand fan." Brandish said.
"A teddy bear." Maven said.
"A book of marine life." Ingrid said.
"Nice." Drake said, before noticing Marinette going up to give her gift. When Miss Bustier lays her eyes on it, she makes a surprised face. Seeing the reaction, Marinette retrieves her present and examines it before getting a angry look.
"What..? I know you did this, Chloe Bourgeois!" The bluenette shouted.
"A 99.56% certainty." Max said while checking his phone.
Drake pinched the bridge of his nose, now realizing Chloe messed with Marinette's gift in some way.
"So uncool, Chloe." Alya said.
"Seriously lame." Marinette added.
"Calm down. We don't want to get upset on my birthday, now, do we?" Miss Bustier said, trying to defuse the situation. She then takes the gift back. "Well, I think this present is wonderful." She then takes some lip balm out of the bag. "It'll be my new cosmetics bag! Then I'll be able to think of both of you every time I use it."
Marinette, however, was not going to let this slide.
"What? You're not gonna let her get away with this?!" The bluenette asked in fury.
"That girl is worse than Hawk Moth!" Alya shouted.
"At least half the city has gotten akumatized because of her!" Alix added.
This causes the students to start talking loudly, while Drake just simply sighed.
"Students, please, calm down now!" Miss Bustier shouted, clapping her hands. This causes the chattering to die down. "The classroom is not a place for insults and defamation!" She then turns to Marinette. "Marinette, would you come with me, please?"
"W-What?" Marinette stuttered.
"Alya. I'm relying on you to make sure things don't get out of hand while we're gone." Miss Bustier said as she opens the door.
"Okay, Miss." Alya said.
And with that, Miss Bustier and Marinette left the classroom.
Watching this, Drake let out another sigh. Why couldn't Marinette let this slide, just this once? Besides, karma will get Chloe in the end.
A bit later, Zombizou enters the classroom with a dance in her step. She then hops on top of the desk with her back towards the students, twirls her lip balm in her fingers and reapplies the balm before turning to the students.
"I have got some great news for you, students! From now on, everyone's going to hug and kiss and feel the love! Even you, Chloe." The villain said.
"Me?" Chloe asked. Zombizou then sends a visible kiss to Chloe, who puts Sabrina in front of her. "Ah! Yuck! Ew!" The kiss hits Sabrina on the forehead, leaving a mark.
"Oh! What is that thing?" Sabrina asked as she tried to wipe the mark off.
Zombizou reapplies the lip balm and was about to send another kiss, only for Ladybug to stop her by wrapping up the villain's hand with her yo-yo.
"Please, Miss Bustier! You've gotta snap out of it!" Ladybug pleaded.
"I'm not Miss Bustier anymore!" Zombizou shouted before pulling Ladybug's yo-yo, send the spotted her into the wall. "I am Zombizou!"
That's when a Odonata flies in and on the lip balm.
"Hello Zombizou, I am Damselfly, and I bestow upon you the power to create energy whips." Damselfly said.
"Thank you, Damselfly." Zombizou said before creating a whip of energy from her lip balm. She then tries to smack Ladybug with it, only for the spotted hero to dodge.
The two then began to fight, giving the students a chance to escape.
The student ran into the courtyard. Once there, Drake noticed Sabrina was limping behind.
"Are you alright?" He asked.
"I...feel... It's suddenly gotten very warm in here." Sabrina said before sitting down and holding her chest. "I don't know what's happening, I..."
That's when Chloe stomps up to them.
"Unh! What is wrong with you?" She demanded.
Before Drake could yell at the blonde brat, he noticed the kiss mark on Sabrina's forehead disappearing and her eyes glowing purple, changing her iris color.
"Chloe..." Sabrina said before jumping on Chloe, trying to kiss her.
"Ugh! Get away from me!" Chloe shouted as she tried to get Sabrina off her.
Drake and Adrien came to help with the former pulling Sabrina off while the latter helps Chloe up.
"Kissou." Sabrina said as she jumps on Mylene.
"Mylene!" Ivan shouted as he pulls Sabrina off her. "Are you okay?"
"I feel...feverish... I can't—" Mylene said, with a kiss mark on her cheek. The kiss mark then disappears and Mylene's eyes change color. "Kissou..."
"They're contagious! Don't let yourselves get kissed!" Adrien shouted with widen eyes.
"Run! I'll hold them back!" Ivan shouted. As the students flee, Drake, who was on the other side of the courtyard, was forced to go on his own.
Running into a empty hallway, Drake ducked into a nearby supply closet.
"Well... This is going to be the weirdest zombie apocalypse of all time." Drake said as he let Spyro and Cynder out of the fanny pack.
"These akumas are getting more bizarre by the minute." Spyro said.
"Tell me about it..." Drake said before grabbing his pendant. "I wonder what the boost that Ignitus will give me be?"
"Only one way to find out." Cynder said, getting a nod from Drake.
"Transform Me!" Once Spyro and Cynder were absorbed into his wristbands, Drake let's out a roar as he turns into Dragnarok. "Unleash the Dragon!"
That's when Dragnarok's pendant began to glow before letting out a blinding flash of light. Once it died down, Dragnarok saw that he was now wearing a set of armor.
The armor was gold in color and had aquamarine highlights. The armor consists of a helmet that had holes for Dragnarok's horns, a pair of bracers that wrapped around Dragnarok's arms, shin guards, a chest plate, and a piece of armor on the base of Dragnarok's tail.
"Whoa!" Dragnarok said as he looked himself over. "Where did this armor come from?!"
"That is the boost I was talking about." A voice spoke up. That was Ignitus' hologram appeared. "This is the Defense Armor. It increases your endurance and even slightly heals you over time."
"Cool..." Dragnarok said with stars in his eyes.
"Now, I believe you have a akuma to deal with?" Ignitus asked, snapping Dragnarok out of his star-struck gaze.
"Right. Thanks for the armor." The draconic hero said as the hologram dispels. With that, Dragnarok takes off.
Arriving at the locker room, Dragnarok saw Ladybug with a few students that weren't infected. Those being Ombra, Brandish, Ingrid, Maven, Alya, Nino, Rose, Juleka, Alix, Max, Kim, and, sadly, Chloe.
"Glad to see that you guys are alright." Dragnarok said getting their attention. They let out a silent gasp when they saw the draconic hero's armor.
"Where did you get that armor?" Ladybug asked.
"Let's just say that you and the others aren't the only ones to get power-ups." Dragnarok said. "Anyway, are you guys okay?"
"Looks like it." Alya said, only for Nino to speak up.
"Uh... Adrien? He still hasn't come out of his locker." He said.
"Adrien?" Ladybug asked as she opens the locker.
"Kissy-boo..." The blonde model said sleepily. This causes Ladybug to slam the locker shut and cause the other students to freak out.
"Oh, man. He must've gotten kissed on the stairs when he was saving Chloe." Alya theorized. That's when everyone hear the "zombies" heading towards them.
"Damn it, they must've heard us!" Dragnarok shouted.
We need to head to the roof." Ladybug said. The spotted hero then opens a window before flinging her yo-yo upward, which hooks on to something. She then had the students climb the yo-yo's rope while Dragnarok helped by flying a few students up.
Once on the roof, Ladybug was watching a new broadcast on her yo-yo with Dragnarok and Alya.
"Yet again, it seems citizens of Paris are in great danger. Since this morning, a strange disease is spreading." Nadja said in the broadcast. that's when Cat Noir appeared.
"Hey guys, I'm all for our French greetings, but let's hold off on the kisses for now, huh?" The feline hero said jokingly.
"I'm glad you're here, Cat Noir. Check this out." Ladybug said as she shows Cat Noir the broadcast.
"Hordes of kissing zombies are spreading throughout Paris!" Nadja continued. "Let's go over to our Mayor, Mr Bourgeois, live from City Hall."
The broadcast then switches to Andre.
"We advise all Parisians to remain inside at this time." The Mayor said. That' when a infected Roger appeared.
"Kissy-poo!" He shouted before jumping Andre. That's when the broadcast goes back to Nadja.
"Mr Mayor? Mr Mayor?" The reporter asked, trying to to see if Andre was alright.
"Daddy?!" Chloe shouted as she shove Cat Noir out of the way to see what was going on.
"It looks like we're having a slight technical issue." Nadja said, only to be hit with a Zombizou kiss, causing her to slump. That's when Zombizou walks into the shot.
"I took care of your father, Chloe. Show yourself!" The villain taunted, causing Chloe to freak. "Then, Ladybug, and Cat Noir? I'm coming for you. Mwah!" Zombizou then kisses the lens, leaving a kiss mark on them. "Unless, of course, my sweethearts get hold of you first; because very soon, the whole city will be hot on your heels!"
As Ladybug ends the feed, Alix marches up the Chloe.
"Chloe! Hunh! Always Chloe! You only think about yourself!" The skater shouted.
"I don't know why we don't just give them what they want." Alya said.
"Might even give us time to form a plan." Maven said.
"Yeah! Good idea!" Nino agreed.
"Is it my fault if I'm better than all of you?" Chloe asked in snobby tone, which made Dragnarok very tempted to literally throw Chloe to the horde of "zombies."
"Sorry to disappoint you guys, but Chloe doesn't deserve to get hit any more than you." Ladybug said, which causes the brat smirk with her arms crossed. "And we need her as bait to lure Zombizou when the time is right."
"Uh...thanks?" Chloe said in a nervous tone.
"They're coming!" Rose shouted, pointing to the horde of infected students that were starting to climb onto the roof.
"We've gotta evacuate!" Ladybug shouted before noticing a bus on the street. "Over there! Cat Noir, do you know how to drive?"
"You should know the answer to that, M'Lady. I can do anything." Cat Noir said.
"Kitties first, then." Ladybug said. Cat Noir then jumps off the roof, spinning his baton rapidly overhead to glide for a bit before landing on the bus' roof. The "infected" then suddenly frozen in place.
"What's with them?" Ingrid asked before everyone noticed Dragnarok with his arms out.
"I'm controlling their blood streams and keeping them in place." The draconic hero said in a strained tone. "Hurry! I never did this with multiple people at once and I don't think I can keeps this going for much longer."
With a nod, Cat Noir extends is baton until it reached the rooftop before throwing his belt to Ladybug.
"Max and Kim, you go first." Chloe said in a scared tone, causing the two boys to cross their arms angrily at her.
The student then began to use the baton and belt as a zip-line. First was Rose, then Juleka, then Brandish, then Ingrid, then Alya, then Maven, then Ombra. When with was Nino's turn, Dragnarok stopped using his power, dropping to his knees in exhaustion. This freed the infected students, who continued to go after them.
"Hurry up!" Ladybug shouted, causing Nino to zip-line down.
"Kissou-kissou-kissou!" The "zombies" shouted.
Max shields Chloe from the "zombies", having them strike him. Kim was about to zip-line when he see Max get attacked.
"Max!" He shouted before grabbing Chloe. "Come on, Chloe!"
"Play the hero as much as you like, Kim, but you won't be getting a kiss out of me." The brat said.
"Just go, before I change my mind." Kim said before sending Chloe down the zip-line. Ladybug then grabs Kim and leaps to safety.
"Oh, sure. Ignore the exhausted dragon here." Dragnarok said before flying into the air, out of the "zombies" reach.
Looking out into the distance, Dragnarok saw that the bus was heading to the Eiffel Tower.
"I hope they have a plan." He muttered. He then flies down to a safe rooftop. "I need to check my breath for a bit. Hope Ladybug and the others can hold out.
Regaining his strength, thanks to the armor, Dragnarok immediately flew to the Eiffel Tower. Arriving at the tower, he saw Ladybug and Zombizou facing off on the tower's roof, with Cat Noir and the others being infected.
"You're all alone, Ladybug. Accept my love, and give me your Miraculous!" The villain said.
"This is not true love!" Ladybug shouted.
"And she's not alone!" Dragnarok shouted, making his presence known.
"My, you've gotten shiner, haven't you Dragnarok?" Zombizou said before sending out a kiss that hits the armor's chest plate. But after a while of waiting, nothing happened. "What?! Why aren't you accepting my love?!"
Dragnarok, curious himself, rubs on the kiss mark, causing it to be rubbed out.
"Guess the armor doesn't care for your love." Dragnarok said, making Zombizou angry. Before she could do anything, Dragnarok takes control of her blood stream keeping her in place. "Hurry! Get the Akuma!"
With a nod, Ladybug grabs the lip balm 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 everything back to normal. Zombizou turns back to into Miss Bustier and everyone else was cured of their infection. Dragnarok, looking over the cheering students, smiled.
Ladybug... Cat Noir... Dragnarok! If Zombizou is right...if love does always conquer...then someday, my most cherished wish will come true for sure!" Hawk Moth shouted in anger.
"Still, it's interesting to see Dragnarok can get a power boost as well." Damselfly said.
"Yes, in the form of armor. I wonder where he got it?" Hawk Moth said as the window closes.
Later that day, in Drake room, Team Draconic was discussing what had happened.
"So you get armor that is kind of like the potions from earlier?" Ombra asked.
"Well, in giving me a boost in battle, then yes." Drake answered.
"Anyway, sorry we weren't able to help you, Ladybug, and Cat Noir today." Brandish said. "We weren't able to transform, due to being around to the others."
"You don't have to apologize, I understand the situation you guys were in." Drake said before gaining a cheeky smirk. "Anyway, did I look dashing in armor?"
Everyone let out a laugh.
And that's Zombizou! So the power-ups Dragnarok will be getting is basically the Armor from Dawn of the Dragon. Dragnarok's version of each will be a blend of Spyro and Cynder's versions, in terms of design and functionality.
Anyway, hoped you all enjoy, send a respectful goodbye to Kirby Morrow (Rest in Peace dude), and Ill see you next time. Bye~
