Hello everyone, and today, Dragnarok will be facing off against Troublemaker.
kyrogue23: The Aether Trial and Richard's akumatization will not happening for a long while. I won't say when, but I will say it won't be happening in Season 2.
Anyway, let's begin!
Entry #65
After dealing with "Queen Bee", I need a break from Chloe for a good long while.
Season 2 Opening Intro(Set It Off by Skillet)(I don't own the song)
In his room, Drake was meditating. He'd figured that he better get some training for his psychic abilities in when he had the chance. As he meditated, Drake began to numb himself from the world around him. That's when he had another vision.
In a open field, older Drake was having a fencing match with someone. His opponent was a young man who appeared to be 19 years old. He had pale skin, amber eyes, black hair, and a dusting of visible brown freckles on his nose. He was wearing a dark purple t-shirt, which was under a unzipped dark red sweatshirt, blue jeans and black sneakers.
This was Drake's son, Setsuna.
As the two continued to spar, the older Drake then used Armand D'Argencourt's special move, knocking Setsuna's saber out of his hand.
"Whoa..." The young man said, amazed by the move his father just used.
"Learned that one from my old fencing instructor." The older Drake said with a smile. "Anyway, you are definitely improving."
"But still not good enough..." Setsuna muttered before picking up the saber back up and takes a stance. "Again."
"Setsuna..." The older Drake said with a concern look. "I told you before, no one is forcing you to continue your mother's legacy."
"It's not just Mom's legacy I want to uphold." Setsuna said, surprising his father. "I also want to uphold your legacy."
"My legacy?" The older Drake asked in a confused tone.
"Your legacy as Dragnarok." Setsuna said, shocking his father.
"Why?" The older Drake asked.
"I just..." His son said before looking down. "I just want to make you proud..."
"Setsuna..." The older Drake said as he put a hand on his son's shoulder. "You always make me proud."
The vision ends when Drake hears his phone ringing.
"Hello?" He asked when he picked up the phone. "Oh, hey Jagged. What's up?"
Inside the Boulangerie Patisserie, Drake was with Fang, hold his leash. Jagged wanted Drake to keep an eye on the crocodile as he partakes in Fill My Shoes, a show about celebrities taking the place of another person and do their job. In this case, Jagged is taking Tom Dupain's place as a baker.
As the rocker was working with a slab of dough, Fang was trying to get to his master, only to be kept in place by Drake.
"Calm down, Fang." He said. Drake then noticed Penny Rolling, who seems to be nervous, as she was fiddling with her pen.
Before Drake could say anything, Marinette came up and beat him to the punch.
"Are you okay, Miss Penny?" She asked.
"Yes, yes, it's just, this show was my idea, and Jagged's putting all his trust in me and I just hope everything goes well today." Penny said.
"Well, he seems to be having a good time." Drake said, pointing to Jagged, who shaped the dough he had into a guitar. This cause Penny to chuckle.
That's when Sabine, Marinette's mother, came up to them.
"So, Miss Penny, what's it like working with a star like Jagged? He seems so cool!" She asked.
"Oh yes, he's...wonderful—" Penny said before stopping herself. "Uh, I mean...yeah, he's awesome."
Marinette gives her a knowing look while Drake snickers.
"Yo, Marinette! My favorite little lady, come over and rock out with us!" Jagged shouted as he and Tom were singing "Smoke on the Water". Marinette hesitates, but was encouraged by Sabine. As she was heading to Jagged, she nervously waves at the camera. She calms down a bit when she notices Drake giving her a encouraging thumbs up.
Later that day...
"It's so cool that we get to spend the day together. Marinette's really talented, Alec; she did the artwork for my latest album, and she's only in high school!" Jagged said, praising the bluenette.
"Wow, impressive! A true family of artists. A talented young designer and a gifted patissier." Alec said before facing Tom. "By the way, what're you gonna bake for us today, Tom?"
"Uh...how about some chocolate croissants?" Tom offered before facing his daughter. "Can you grab a bag of flour please, dear?"
"Sure, Dad!" Marinette said before accidentally knocking the bag over, covering Jagged in flour. "Uh oh."
"Hey, look! I look like a ghost! Rock and Boo-Hoo!" Jagged said before laughing, not minding what happened.
"Making pastries is obviously no piece of cake! Stay tuned; we'll be right back after this commercial break!" Alec said to the camera.
"And cut!" The cameraman shouted.
"Sorry, Jagged!" Marinette apologized.
"No sweat, Marinette." Jagged said.
"Could you tell me where the restroom is, please?" Penny asked.
"Upstairs!" Marinette answered.
"Thanks." Penny said before leading Jagged away.
"Come on. We have some cleaning up to do." Tom said.
As Marinette helped Tom, Drake was being dragged by Fang.
"Fang! Calm down!" Drake shouted as he pulled the leash. Fang gave him a pleading look, which Drake tried to resist, but eventually gave in. "Alright... One quick walk won't hurt." Drake then took Fang out, ignoring the stares he got from people passing by.
Returning to the bakery after the walk, Drake and Fang noticed everyone coming down from the residential area.
"All right, everyone back to work. Chop chop!" Bob Roth shouted.
"Okay, people; Jagged, Mr. Dupain, get back to your place. We're live in five, four, three—" Alec shouted, only to be interrupted.
"Wait, wait, wait! We'd rather not continue." Tom said.
"What?! Have you lost your mind?!" Bob shouted.
"We're not comfortable with your cameras going everywhere and invading our privacy! Our daughter is upset because of your show. We won't allow that!" Sabine said.
"...Did I miss something?" Drake asked. Before anyone could say anything else, Troublemaker appeared and draped an arm over Jagged.
"Hello, Jagged." She said, causing Jagged to recoil in shock.
"Whoa! Who are you?! Where's Penny?! Penny!" He shouted.
"There's no more Penny to deal with all your problems, Jagged! From now on, there's only Troublemaker!" The villain said before clicking her pen twice, becoming transparent. "And I'll make your life nothing but problems!"
As the fans began to flee, Drake took the opportunity to duck into an empty room.
"Okay... I don't know what happened, but whatever it was, it caused Penny to be akumatized." Drake said as he let Spyro and Cynder out.
"We'll ask her what happened when she is purified." Spyro said.
"Right now, we need to stop her from causing an trouble." Cynder said.
"Right! 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!"
Exiting the room, Dragnarok saw Cat Noir fighting Troublemaker outside the bakery. The villain throws the feline hero into a van, leaving a huge dent. That's when Ladybug's yo-yo slings around Cat Noir's leg and lifts him into the air.
"Impressive..." Dragnarok said, getting the villain's attention. "But is it enough to handle me?" The draconic hero then throws a fireball at Troublemaker, only for the villain to click her pen, making herself transparent, and causing the fireball to go through her. "What the-?! So you can make yourself intangible."
"Correct. Glad to see that at least one of you is smart." Troublemaker said.
"I wonder..." Dragnarok muttered before closing his eyes. That's when Troublemaker grabbed her head in pain, as if she was having a massive headache. "Aha! While you can't be touched by physical attacks, mental attack can still touch you!" Dragnarok then lifts the villain with his psychokinesis and slams her into the ground.
"Agh!" Troublemaker yelled before getting back up onto her feet. "Why you..." She tried to punch Dragnarok, only to go through the draconic hero.
"It seems you can't touch people while you're intangible. What a design flaw." Dragnarok taunted.
Growling, Troublemaker clicked her pen, making herself tangible. That's when a strong gust of blows the villain onto her back. Following it, Dragnarok saw that it was the rest of Team Draconic on a nearby rooftop.
"Guys!" The draconic hero shouted.
"See saw what happened on TV." Echidna explained once she and the others jumped down to their leader. Seeing that they were distracted, Troublemaker took off.
"Where she go?!" Siorc shouted when she noticed the missing villain.
"She must've gone back inside." Swallow theorized.
"Before we go after her, can any of you explain what happened earlier that led to this?" Dragnarok asked.
The four explained that the camera crew followed Jagged and Penny upstairs and into Marinette's room, showing the bluenette's pictures of Adrien and embarrassing her. That was some shouting and arguing, which stressed Penny out enough to akumatized.
"...And that's when Troublemaker appeared." Grizzly said, finishing the story.
"I see..." Dragnarok muttered before facing the bakery. "Anyway, we have a villain to stop!"
And with that, Team Draconic enters the building.
Arriving in the living room of the residential area, Team Draconic saw Troublemaker holding one of Ladybug's earrings.
"You've already lost half the battle, Ladybug!" The villain taunted as she held up the earring.
"No!" Ladybug cried as she slowly began to detransform.
With quick thinking, Dragnarok used Dragon Time to slow Troublemaker down and snatch the earring from the villain's grasp.
"Think again!" The draconic hero shouted before handing the earring to Ladybug. "I think this belongs to you."
With a grateful nod, Ladybug took the earring and put it back on, restore her suit.
"I had it!" Troublemaker angrily shouted as she phases through the floor.
"That was a close call. Certainly not how I dreamed we'd share our secret identity. Oh no, not like that!" Cat Noir said.
"It'll have to wait, at least until we kick Trouble's butt and Hawk Moth!" Ladybug said before taking a stance. "Lucky Charm!" She throws her yo-yo into the air, summoning... A broken plate. "A broken plate?"
"Oh you've got to be kidding!" Dragnarok shouted in exasperation.
"That's strange; I don't see how to use it!" Ladybug said as she looks around.
"Maybe losing an earring weakened your power." Swallow theorized.
"My power has to be working!" The spotted hero said before noticing something. "It is working!" She then picks up a tube of glue. "Sticking time!"
"Seriously?" The others asked.
The heroes soon enter Marinette's room, looking for the villain.
"All right! We're comin' to get you!" Cat Noir shouted, holding a Cataclysm with both arms as a policeman would hold a gun out.
"There's no use in hiding!" Siorc shouted.
"Be careful guys! She could come from anywhere to get my Miraculous!" Ladybug said while holding a glued plate.
After a moment of searching, they couldn't find Troublemaker.
"She's nowhere to be seen. I think we should split up." Echidna said. "I'll check the bakery."
"We'll check the living room." Grizzly with nods from Swallow and Siorc.
"And I'll check on the roof with Dragnarok. Stay here!" Cat Noir said.
And with that, the group splits up.
"No! Don't leave me here alone! I only have a plate to defend myself!" Ladybug shouted. That's when Troublemaker phases in from the ceiling. She jumps at the spotted hero and grabs her earrings. "Stop!"
The villain tries to take them, only to find that her hands were stuck.
"What?!" The villain shouted.
"Having some trouble?" Ladybug asked as she grabbed the villain's arms. That when the others reappeared.
"Aw, my poor Bugaboo! Another supervillain fan has literally glued themselves to you." Cat Noir said before holding up the tube of glue. "Sorry to disappoint, but I'm the only one to stick to M'Lady!"
Grizzly then grabs Troublemaker and holds her in place while Swallow uses some sort of compound to remove the glue. Cat Noir then uses his Cataclysm to break the pen the villain was carrying, releasing the Akuma.
"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 everything back to normal. Troublemaker then turns back into Penny.
"Wha...? What happened? Where's Jagged?" Penny asked, looking around confused.
"You're always so helpful, putting everyone before you." Ladybug said before patting Penny's shoulder. "Let's worry about Penny for a change. How are you feeling?"
"'m fine. Thank you, Ladybug." Penny said. That's when Ladybug's earrings began to beep.
"Whoops! Gotta go! Rock and roll!" She said before leaving.
"Rock and roll!" The others shouted as they followed her.
Later that evening, Drake sat down onto his bed.
"Man, what a day." He said.
"Tell me about it. This is the closest Hawk Moth had to getting Ladybug's Miraculous." Spyro said.
"Too bad for him, you came in and saved the day." Cynder said.
"Thanks guys." Drake said before yawning. "I think we should retire for today."
As everyone tucked themselves in, Drake began to think about the vision he had earlier today.
"Setsuna..." He thought as he drifted to sleep.
And that's that.
Like Frozer, this one wasn't one of my favorites. To me, the episode was just... there. Though, I was impressed that a villain did get a hold of one of Ladybug's earrings, even if it was just for a short while.
And for those who are wondering why Damselfly didn't send out a Odonata... It's a similar to Vanisher. Like invisibility, intangibility doesn't have anything that can be added on to it.
