Hello everyone, and happy 4th of July! Today, Dragnarok with be facing off against the sentimonster, Aderyn Casineb, and this one has family ties.
Let's begin!
Entry #92
After dealing with a demon from Fu's past, my grandparents now have to leave, as Hawk Moth now knows they are Guardians. I'm going to miss them.
However, I keep getting the feeling there is something we still need to take care of...
Season 3 Opening Intro(Halo by Starset)(I don't own the song)
At the Firstbourne household, Ashley and Falx were packing up their things as the rest of the family helps."
"Do you really have to go?" Cole asked.
"Yeah, we'd figure we should get back to the old condo in Wales." Falx said as he packs his purple heart. "Plus, we felt like we'd overstayed our welcome."
"Oh, not at all." Hestia said. "In fact, are you sure you can't stay for a few more days? We still have some catching up to do."
"Sorry dearie, but we do have to return to our lives in Wales." Ashley said as she packs a few books. "Plus, Hawk Moth and his akumas are getting more dangerous, making Paris less safe by the minute. Don't worry, we'll still be around for a little longer, we'll just be at a hotel until our flight is ready." She then closes the suitcase before turning to Maxwell. "Can you help me carry this to the car?"
"Sure Mom." Maxwell as picks the suitcase up.
Once they put everything in the trunk, Ashley and Falx buckled up as the taxi takes off.
"So... They're really leaving?" Drake asked, despite knowing the real reason they're leaving.
"I'm afraid so..." Cole said in a low voice.
Drake then fells a pulse on his mind.
"Drake, Falx and I aren't really leaving Paris. You haven't completed your training with your psychic powers. We're really going to say at Fu's." Ashley telepathically said. "We'll just be in disguise whenever we go out in public."
Drake gained a small smile.
Later that day, Drake was in his room, getting ready for bed with Spyro and Cynder.
"So, you're telling me that your grandparents and Fu never really left the city?" Cynder asked.
"Yep. They have to go undercover though." Drake said with a shrug.
"At least they'll still be around to help." Spyro said.
Drake nodded before letting out a yawn.
"Night guys." He said as he tucks himself in.
As they drifted to sleep, Drake began to dream.
However, these weren't dreams, but visions.
We see Drake in his mid-thirties, sitting in the center of his office, forming a sphere of Aether in his hands.
He then heard a knock at the door, causing him to dispel the sphere.
"Come in." Drake said.
Walking in was a girl and boy, twins to be exact, both around the age of ten.
The girl had tan skin, which appeared to come from being outdoors a lot. She had amber eyes and black hair that was completely wild and messy, with a scarlet streak on the right side of her head. She was a red shirt and cargo shorts, both with visible tears, and black hiking boot.
The boy, on the other hand, was the opposite. While he had amber eyes and black like his twin, his hair combed and neatly kept, with a violet streak on the left side of his head. His skin was pale, and he was wearing a violet sweatshirt that was zipped, brown slacks, and white sneakers.
"Ysgarlad, Fioled, is something the matter?" The older Drake asked.
"You know that Malus guy?" The girl, Ysgarlad, asked, getting a nod from her father. "Well, he looks a lot like you."
"Well, he has a few differences, like his yellow eyes." The boy, Fioled, said. "Is he a distant relative?"
"It's... complicated." The older Drake said.
When he met the young man face to face for the first time, he was shocked by who he was, and who his mother was.
"Listen, it's something I don't want to talk about now." The older Drake said. "So, is there anything else?"
"Now that you mention it, Ysgarlad been going "survival trips" in the city again." Fioled said.
"Hey, I just want to conquer the concrete jungle!" Ysgarlad snapped. "At least I'm not coped up in my room all day!"
"I'm working on various projects!" Fioled countered. "And at least I can keep myself well groomed!"
The twins then started to bicker, causing the older Drake to sigh.
As Drake had this vision, he was unintendedly releasing psychic waves into the city.
At the Louvre, the second statue felt the waves, causing crack to form on it before...
BOOM!
Breaking out was a large, blue bird-like creature. It had four blue wing that was glowing bright cyan at the end. A long neck with a mouthless head that two small, cyan feelers, and a purple horn. It had a curly tail, like a chameleon. And in the center of its chest was a mark in the shape of a purple shield, with two cyan feelers below it.
The creature let out a humming sound before bursting through the roof.
At Fu's massage shop, the three guardians ran to a window to see the creature flying through the air.
"No..." Ashley gasped as the creature fired lightning from its wing, blasting nearby buildings.
"Is that-?" Falx asked in shocked.
"Yes... Aderyn Casineb." Ashley said in grim tone. She then turns to Fu. "The wielders dealt with a demon from your past, now it's time for them to deal with mine."
At the Agreste mansion, Gabriel and Nathalie watched as Aderyn Casineb continued its rampage.
"Is that... a sentimonster?" Gabriel asked as he stared in mild surprise.
"Must've been the second statue at Louvre, but why didn't the Peacock sense it?" Nathalie said before shaking her head. "Doesn't matter. This could be an opportunity to get the Miraculous."
"Indeed." Gabriel said. "Transform and head out, I'll contact Hestia and get ready."
"Yes sir."
For his room, Drake watched in horror as Aderyn Casineb fired lasers from its eyes at some fleeing citizens.
"What is that thing?!" He shouted.
"It must be a sentimonster." Spyro said.
"But how could Mayura pump one out that fast?" Drake asked.
"Wait... Wasn't there a second statue at the museum?" Cynder asked.
"That's right... another statue was found with Fu's sentimonster." Spyro said.
"It doesn't matter where it came from, what matters is that it needs to be stopped!" Drake stated. "Henshin!" Once Spyro and Cynder were absorbed into his wristbands, Drake let's out a roar as he turns into Dragnarok. "Unleash the Dragon!"
The draconic hero then takes off.
At the Parisian streets, people were running for their lives as Aderyn Casineb rained destruction down upon them.
On a nearby rooftop, Mayura stared at the sentimonster.
"Such hatred... I never see this much hate." She said, getting Aderyn Casineb's attention. "Let me put that hatred to good use."
The sentimonster simply glared at the Peacock wielder before its horn began to glow.
Mayura then grabs her head, as an unbearable pain shot through her brain.
"You are not the Creator... You don't control me..." A voice that sounded like a small child whispered in her head. "You shall perish..."
A car was telepathically lifted into the air before being throw at Mayura.
She closed her eyes and braced for impact.
But the impact never came.
Opening her eyes, Mayura saw Dragnarok in front of her, using his own psychokinesis to keep the car in the air for a bit before placing it back on the road.
"I figured you and your boss would try to take advantage of this." He said as he faced the Peacock wielder.
"Indeed, but this one has some sort of psychic power that is preventing me from control it." Mayura said.
Facing Aderyn Casineb, the two saw that the sentimonster was staring at Dragnarok.
"Creator? No... But you're like her..." A childish voice whispered in their heads.
"Did you hear that?" Dragnarok asked as he looks around.
"I think the sentimonster is talking to us..." Mayura said in an amazed tone.
Aderyn Casineb turns its head to the Peacock wielder with a glare.
"Silence thief! Your kind dare uses the Miraculous for selfish means! You dare steal from the Creator?! You all shall be punish!" The voice, now figured to be coming from Aderyn Casineb, shouted before the sentimonster blasts Mayura with its laser vision, sending her flying.
"Mayura!" Dragnarok shouted.
"As for you..." Aderyn Casineb said, getting the draconic hero's attention. "I don't know who or what you are, but despite being like the Creator, you are not an ally."
Aderyn Casineb then uses its psychokinesis to lift Dragnarok in the air before tossing him in a random direction.
In an alleyway, Mayura got back onto her feet with a groan. She tried to dispel the sentimonster, only to get a thunderous headache each time she tires.
"Hawk Moth... We may have a problem..."
At Hawk Moth's lair...
"What do you mean you can't control it?!" Hawk Moth shouted, talking to Mayura through his cane, with Damselfly standing next to him.
"Whoever created it must've made it so only they can control it." Mayura said. "I'm afraid we'll have to let Ladybug and her friends take care of this."
Hawk Moth just growled in annoyance.
Speaking of Ladybug, she, along with Cat Noir, Echidna, Swallow, Siorc, and Grizzly, ran up to the rampaging sentimonster.
"Alright guy, let's find the amok and end this!" The spotted hero said.
Aderyn Casineb heard this and turned to the heroes.
"More thieves..." It whispered in their heads. "You shall be exterminated."
The sentimonster then fires lightning at the heroes, forcing them on the defense.
"Hey, we earned our Miraculouses!" Echidna shouted.
"Lies!" Aderyn Casineb shouted. "Humans uses the Miraculous for nothing but their selfish desires! The only one worthy is the Creator!"
"While it's true that some people like Hawk Moth use the Miraculous for evil, there are people like us who use them for good." Cat Noir said, trying to reason with the sentimonster.
"Silence!" Aderyn Casineb shouted as its horn glows, causing the heroes to grab their head in pain. "You human are all the same, nothing more than lying, thieving creatures! The only good one is that Creator! I'm gonna enjoy tearing your minds apart!"
The heroes cried in anguish as they can feel the sentimonster probing their minds.
Back with Dragnarok, he'd crash landed near Fu's massage shop.
"...I had worse landings..." The draconic hero muttered to himself got back onto his feet, dusting any rubble off of him.
"Dragnarok!" A voice shouted. Following it, the draconic hero saw that it was his grandparents and Fu. "Are you alright?"
"Been better." Dragnarok said with a shrug. "What was that thing?"
"Coming inside, I'll tell you everything." Ashley said as she leads Dragnarok inside the shop.
Once inside, Ashley began telling her story.
"Long ago, I was a young girl who lost her parents to illness, I soon met a member from the Order of the Guardians named Wadj-wer, who came to Wales for two reasons. First, he was looking for any potential recruits. He soon found me, and seeing my potential, gave me the Peacock Miraculous as a test. The test was the second reason why he came to Wales. The Dragonfly Miraculous was in the hands of man who ran a criminal empire, and with using the Miraculous to strengthen his goons. Wadj-wer wanted me to help his find his target."
Ashley paused for a bit before letting out a sigh.
"To help Wadj-wer in his search, I used the Peacock to create a sentimonster with psychic abilities. It did its job, but the cost was high. You see, the emotion I used to create this sentimonster was hatred. My hatred for this man. My hatred for anyone who would dare use the Miraculous for evil deeds. The sentimonster slaughtered the crime empire without a second thought. The leader, in a last act of spite, hide the Dragonfly Miraculous and took the information of its location to the grave with him."
"Only for the Dragonfly to somehow end up in Damselfly's hands years later." Dragnarok said, getting a nod from his grandmother.
"Exactly. Anyway, the sentimonster deemed all of humanity worthy for extermination. When I tried to dispel the sentimonster, it used its psychic powers to prevent me from doing soon. I then decided to find fire with fire, as I used my own psychic powers to seal the sentimonster deep within Snowdon Mountain. Once it was over, I was ready to face punishment. Wadj-wer was rightfully angry from my action, but he was also an understanding man. Seeing that the criminal empire was disbanded, and I was able to stop the rogue sentimonster, he gave me a second chance. He tasked me with helping him find the Dragonfly Miraculous. For the next few years we searched, and while we didn't find the Miraculous, I did prove to Wadj-wer that I was worthy, and he made me the Guardian of the Miraculouses of Life.
Ashley then let out a sad sigh.
"Years later, Wadj-wer passed away, I met and married Falx, and we had your father and uncle. But I never forgotten my mission, and will never forget the demon of my past, Aderyn Casineb, the bird of hatred."
Dragnarok bowed his head in silence for a second before looking his grandmother in the eye.
"We still need to stop this. If Fu could face his past, then you can too." The draconic hero said.
"You're right. Let's go cage up a bird." Ashley said.
And with that, the two take off.
Back on the Parisian streets, the heroes were withering on the ground in pain with Aderyn Casineb looking at them in boredom.
"I've grown tired of this. Time to put you down." The sentimonster whispered before preparing its laser vision.
But before it could fire, a sphere of Aether flew by its head, causing the sentimonster to misfire.
Turning around, Aderyn Casineb saw Dragnarok, in his Dark Armor, and Ashley. Upon seeing the latter, the sentimonster got excited.
"Creator!" The sentimonster shouted in glee before gaining a sad look. "Why did you abandon me? Why did you seal me away?"
"I had no choice! You were slaughtering innocents!" Ashley shouted.
"No human is innocent!" Aderyn Casineb shouted back. "They destroy and corrupt everything they touch. I must destroy them to protect you!" The sentimonster then started to use its psychokinesis to tear entire buildings out from the ground and into the air. "The only good human is a dead human!"
Aderyn Casineb rained down the buildings, causing mass destruction as the buildings crashed into other building still rooted into the ground, causing rubble and shrapnel to fly everywhere. Some managed to hit and pinned nearby civilians to the ground.
"Guys!" Dragnarok shouted, getting the attention of Ladybug, Cat Noir, and rest of Team Draconic. "Get the people to safety! I'll take care of this!"
Getting nods from the others, the draconic hero turns to the sentimonster, who glares at him.
"You are an anomaly... You're like the Creator, yet you're not." Aderyn Casineb said before its horn began to glow. "Let's see what's inside your head!"
The sentimonster then tried to peer into Dragnarok's head, only for the draconic hero to quickly turn the tables and used his own psychic powers to peer into the sentimonster's head.
Hatred. That was all Dragnarok see in Aderyn Casineb's head. Hatred for humanity and the atrocities they had committed.
But the draconic hero soon found something else besides hatred.
He found sadness, fear, the feeling of betrayal, and the feeling of abandonment. There was a desire to protect his grandmother from any danger.
He then found a memory.
"Why did leave me? I did what you wanted... Have I failed you?"
Exiting Aderyn Casineb's head, Dragnarok gave the sentimonster a sympathetic look.
"You are like a child..." The draconic hero muttered. "A lost, scared, and confused child." He then forms sphere of Light Aether in his hands. "Let me give you peace."
Dragnarok then fired the sphere in the form of a beam of particles.
When the beam hits, Aderyn Casineb as first let out a pained screech before letting out soft, calm cooing, as it felt a smoothing sensation throughout its body.
Aderyn Casineb then began to see visions of happy moments into Ashley's life. It saw her meeting and falling in love with Falx, meeting Fu, her wedding, her holding an infant Cole, then an infant Maxwell, Cole wedding with Hestia, the birth of Drake, then the birth of Vesta.
Seeing these memories and the fact that Ashley was safe and happy brought warmth into Aderyn Casineb's chest.
"Thank you..." The sentimonster whisper before dispelling, turning into an amok, which floats down into Dragnarok's hand.
"May your hatred be sated, Aderyn Casineb..." The draconic hero muttered before noticing the other heroes returning. "Do your thing bug."
""No more evil-doing for you. Time to de-evilize!" Ladybug shouted as she catches the amok. "Gotcha! Bye bye, little feather. Miraculous Ladybug!"
Throwing her yo-yo into the air, Ladybug restored all the damage that Aderyn Casineb caused.
"Pound it!" The heroes and Ashley fist bumped.
Nobody noticed that Mayura was watching the whole thing.
"You're telling me that my own mother-in-law created this sentimonster?!" Damselfly shouted in shock.
"Indeed. If we could get to her, we'll be one step closer into getting the Miraculous." Hawk Moth said before noticing the worried look on Damselfly's face. "Don't worry, my dear, she won't be hurt."
"Thank you..." Damselfly said as the window closes.
Flying back to his room, Dragnarok turned himself back into Drake before plopping down onto his bed.
"Man, what a night... Thank the Ancestors it's a weekend." He muttered into his pillow.
"At least your grandmother can rest a bit more easily." Spyro said.
"And that Aderyn Casineb is at peace." Cynder added.
"True." Drake said with a smile.
At Fu's massage shop, Ashley looked at the starry sky with a smile.
"I wish you were still here to meet my grandson, Master Wadj-wer. You would've like him."
And that's that!
We finally got to see how Ashley became the Guardian of the Miraculouses of Life.
We've also got to see more of Drake's possible children. These are the last ones.
Here's choice of voice actors for Drake/Dragnarok's future children:
Setsuna: Liam O'Brien, who voiced Garra from the Naruto series, Infinite from Sonic Forces, and Dan Moroboshi in Netflix's Ultraman anime.
Midna: Jennifer Hale, who voiced Rivet from Ratchet and Clank: Rift Apart, Rosalind Lutece from Bioshock Infinite, and female Commander Shepard from the Mass Effect series.
Ysgarlad: Katie Crown, who voiced Izzy from Total Drama, Finn McCloud from Stoked, and Ivy Sundew from Amphibia.
Fioled: Brian Drummond, who voiced Ryuk in Death Note, Benny in Black Lagoon, and Toas Matau and Onewa in the second and third Bionicle movies.
Also, "Ysgarlad", "Fioled", and "Aderyn Casineb" are all Welsh. Check out their translation.
Fun fact, the final attack Dragnarok did was based off of Ultraman Cosmos' Full Moon Rect.
Anyway, I hoped you all enjoyed, and have a good 4th of July! See you all soon!
