"Pound it!" The heroes declared after defeating yet another Akumatized Villain who unfortunately didn't have a Miraculous power.

Dragold sighed, "Monarch must really be playing it safe with the Akumas if he's not boosting them with Miraculous powers lately." He said.

"Guess he's not as crazy as everyone thinks." Caprikid commented.

Terrapin shook her head, "Don't worry, after all these defeats recently, he's bound to use a Miraculous power eventually," she assured.

"I hope so. Because ever since we took back the first five Miraculous, Monarch must've started using extra caution not give them powers when we show up." Dragold said while in thought.

"We'll just have to be patience and hope he transfers those powers. Because he can't just go back to the old ways by just akumatizing them." Caspian added.

"It's true. With those Miraculous, he couldn't have a chance to just stop giving them those powers." Ladybug stated.

Just then, their Miraculous, other than Ladybug and Cat Noir, all started beeping after they just used their powers before Ladybug and Cat Noir used theres. "We'll discuss details later. Let's call it a day gang." Phoenix said.

The other heroes agreed and said their goodbyes to their teammates while Ladybug and Cat Noir stood on the rooftop alone.


In a hiding ally, the Zodiac Team all transformed back to normal as their kwamis appeared and their holders gave them some food.

"We really ticked off Monarch after stealing the five Miraculous back." Daniel sigh.

"Well, you know what they say, opportunity never knocks twice, or in this case for Monarch, six times." Sam joked with a smirk.

"Except for the part we haven't got back a Miraculous lately since the whole Pharaoh thing." Kara stated dully.

"We just need to keep defeating Akumas until Monarch gets so ticked he actually gives a villain a Miraculous power," Molly said to them.

"And at least they are much more easy to beat since it was already tough to beat without a Miraculous power." Jacob added while rubbing his head. "We've been working our butts fighting villains and we're still winning."

"In spite of certain, 'distractions'," Daniel said doing air-quotes as he referred to Marinette/Ladybug fawning over Cat Noir/Adrien.

Sam rubbed his face, "I swear, if I have to watch those two love-square dance around each other one more time, I'm gonna throw up." He groaned.

"You try getting Marinette to stop being overdramatic and overboard. She's more clingy than Cat Noir was with her." Kara sighed in annoyance.

"Seriously, their roles being reversed is starting to get more annoying with each day." Daniel added with a dull look. "If we don't find a way get those two together and take off the masks, their gonna drive the whole city crazy!"

"Too late for that." Sam bluntly said, since everything in Paris is as crazy as they get. "Because when there was billboards and news of Cat Noir and Ladybug love all over town, things didn't go well."

"We just gotta prove to Marinette that loving Adrien won't be as bad as her crazy brain thinks and then convince the two of them that they've gotta reveal their identities soon." Daniel said with a hand rubbing his chin.

"Isn't that Adrien running to the bakery?" Jacob asked while pointing to a direction where said Agreste is entering the bakery.

"Oh boy, we better go and try help Alya get Marinette to finally say two words to him." Kara said as she Molly ran off.

"We better keep watch out here." Daniel said to the boys. "If all of us go in, Adrien or Marinette will be suspicious. We'll just have to wait and watch for all to go well."

"You mean, watch the drama unfold." Sam corrected, "Because something tells me, after someone gets their heart broken, we're gonna have a very dangerous Akuma to deal with." He stated.

"From how their feelings are, I think akumatization won't even be worse thing today." Daniel said in concern, having a bad feeling on what would happen if their hearts are broken.


Molly and Kara entered the bakery as they saw Adrien waiting. "Hey, Adrien." Molly spoke.

"Hey, girls." Adrien responded with a smile. "What bring you two to the bakery?"

"We could ask you the same thing." Molly said, though she had a good idea.

"Oh just stopped by for a bite and hoped Marinette would join me," Adrien said, kicking his leg out.

Molly and Kara glanced at each other before Kara smiled nervously, "Could you excuse us for a moment?" Kara said before the two zoomed up stairs and opened the trap door, "Marinette, what are you doing?! Adrien wants to hang out with you, so go hang out with him!" She said as she and Molly climbed up.

"Yeah, Girl! Listen to your heart and go!" Alya urged as she pushed Marinette to the door.

"You girls aren't getting it! We're not talking about Adrien anymore!" Marinette yelled as her face turned red. "For once, we're not talking about Adrien. I'm talking about Cat Noir. Here! Look! That's no kissy-kissy hamster." She said as she pulled out her phone to show a picture of Cat Noir. "That's muscle, humor, pointy ears and a bell. Why should I be the only girl who's not allowed to find him handsome? No, that's it! I'm Marinette, just a normal girl with a normal life, and if I think Cat Noir is handsome, that's-!"

Marinette was cut off as Molly slapped her across the face as she reeled back in a defensive stance and shocked expression, "Did you just slap me?" Marinette asked lowly.

"I was calming you down." Molly answered simply.

"Yeah, no offense, Marinette, but you were losing it." Kara honestly said with her arms crossed. "Again."

"Why would that calm me down?!" Marinette demanded as her eye twitched.

Kara and Molly raised a brow at Marinette's question while Alya flinched back from her reaction. "Have you heard yourself lately?" Kara rhetorically asked, not afraid of Marinette's outburst one bit.

"Um, do you want to go outside and get some fresh air for a second?" Alya suggested with a calm smile. "You look like you might need to cool down a little."

Marinette calmed down for a second as she chuckled. "Yeah, you're right. It's hot in here." She said as she climb into the roof.

After Marinette is out of sight and earshot, Kara and Molly turned to Alya. "I take it that her crush on Cat Noir has skyrocketed, right?" Molly asked.

"Yeah, and Marinette is starting to lose it." Alya said in concern. "She won't even take the chance to even look Adrien in the eye anymore." She said, "I think the only way those two are ever gonna get together is if we tell Marinette that Cat Noir and Adrien Agreste are one and the same."

"But if we do that, it will cause more major problems since we don't know how to explain it to her better to prevent the world from destroying itself." Kara reminded them. "We've been trying to think of a way to get those two together, but how can we explain it to them without causing an episode?"

"If I may, I might have a solution." Nan Fang said flying out of Molly's pocket, "Perhaps, if Marinette would find more confidence in telling Cat Noir the truth, if she shared this burden with her other friends, both with and without the mask."

"Uh, I don't know. Mainette's words when she split them up did hurt them, other than Rose and I, it might be hard to explain it to them." Alya said uncertainly.

"Not all at once, just one at a time," Nan Fang said to them. "If her friends knew of her struggles I'm certain they could help her find the confidence she needs."

"You make a good point, Nan Fang." Molly said to her with a chuckle. "Well, we have three and Rose already know, who else is Marinette close to?"

"Well there's Mylene, Juleka, Kagami and Luka," Alya listed, "Now that I think about it, I think they would help her out with this stuff."

"Wait, wasn't Alix part of this…" Kara cut herself before she reminded herself. "Wait, right. Burrow in time." She said to herself.

"Regardless, they might help her out, but which one should we tell Marinette to talk to first?" Molly wondered.

"Luka is Marinette's ex-boyfriend, and he's a pretty understanding guy. Let's start with him first." Alya suggested with a smile.

Kara nodded, "Although considering he's also Juleka's brother, maybe she should come before or after Luka." She pointed out. "And she's just as supportive as her brother."

"So we tell them both." Alya said with a smile.

"So it's agreed, we'll convince Marinette to let Luka and Juleka in on her secret." Molly said.

"Nice, then get started later because…" Alya trailed off and looked to the roof, "Why hasn't she come down yet?"

Molly, Tikki and Kara all heard silence before they rushed up to the roof and saw nothing around. "She's gone." Molly spoke in shock.

"She went with him," Kara said in concern as they knew who the 'him' was.

"Wait, Tikki, if you're here then she couldn't have transformed into Ladybug." Alya noted since Tikki is still here with them.

"Looks like Adrien must've transformed and saw Marinette up here." Molly noted.

Nan Fang look at Tikki. "You're holder really have a knack for learning love lessons the hard way, Tikki." She said in a bored tone.

"Trust me, she does this and sometimes can overreact on things." Tikki said before looking out to the city, "But maybe this is the wake-up call she needs,"

"Um, Tikki, you do realize if there's trouble, Marinette won't be able to transform without you, right?" Molly asked.

Tikki gave a nervous look. "Yes. But this has happened before during Nooroo's birthday, and a couple of times actually." She honestly said sheepishly.

"I'll try and call her." Alya said as she called her through the alliance ring, but it was sent straight to voice mail. "She's not picking up. Do you think she's angry?" She asked in concern.

"Or Akumatized?" Molly feared as she looked determined, "Nan Fang, Fire it Up!" She called as she jumped, transformed and flew off.

The two girls and two kwamis watched Phoenix go before Daniel and the others, who transformed into their Zodiac forms, jump on the roof. "Girls, what's going on? Where is Molly going?" Dragold asked.

"Marinette went off with Cat Noir, she's not picking up!" Alya answered, "Phoenix thinks she might've been Akumatized."

Caspian looked at Dragold dully, "Told you."

"I don't think so." Dragold said. "Even if she was, Marinette would've taken her earrings to Monarch and Tikki wouldn't be here." He pointed out. "But I did sense that an Akuma nearby,"

"Oh boy, then Marinette might be in trouble." Kara muttered.

"Daniel, can you track that Akuma?" Alya asked desperately.

"Well, Haunglong told me that I also have the ability to sense Miraculous powers, and the Butterfly Miraculous's power is definitely close by, I can sensed another one too," He said as he closed his eyes, "Elation, the Miraculous of the Tiger."

"Wait Monarch's using a Miraculous powered Akuma? Finally another chance to get a Miraculous back." Caspian said excitedly.

"But eh, how do we find this villain?" Hydrake asked.

"Maybe from the giant Ice cream snowman heading this way?" Kara stated while pointing ahead to Glaciator heading right for them.

"Okay, how did we miss that?" Dragold questioned with a brow.

Alya's ring then started ringing as she pick it up. "Marinette?" She asked hopefully.


(A few minutes ago)

After Phoenix flew across the night sky while desperately looking for Marinette and Adrien as she search around Paris.

"Okay, if I was a love-square couple, where would I be?" Phoenix asked herself as she look around. "Mmm, I would probably go somewhere private and quiet, while also looking at the night sky. Maybe this idea might be great for me and Jaco-" She stopped herself when she realized what she almost said as she gave a slight blush and shook her head. "I mean, a perfect night for a couple. Why did I almost said that?" She asked herself before flying around.

She then realized that Marinette and Adrien may not be the only ones in the group who would end up as a couple, "Problem with being truthful, you can't lie to yourself that you like a cute guy," She muttered before she spotted Marinette and Cat Noir on the beach as she noticed the blacken rose in Marinette's hand, "Oh no. Looks like Sam and I were spot on." She muttered as she then flew down.

But before Phoenix could do anything to help prevent Marinette's Akumatization, Cat Noir grabbed Marinette and kissed her on the lips, which surprise Phoenix from that as she stopped in mid air and saw the akuma exiting the flower and enter the portal as Cat Noir tried to chase it, but it closed before he could get closer.

"Whoa." Phoenix muttered as she flew down to the two. "At least we know how the Akumas seem to be popping up much faster than usual." She said before landing.

"Phoenix, you're here." Cat Noir said in surprise while Marinette is still shock at what almost happened.

"Yeah, and I saw the akuma and the sudden counter kiss to chase it away." Phoenix noted while still shock at what she witness. "Mind telling me what made this girl almost Akumatize?" She asked, wondering what happened that made Marinette give into negative emotions.

"Marinette and I were just going for a nice run, and well, she happened to have a crush on me and then…" Cat Noir explained before he stopped and closed his eyes. "And then when I told her that I can't love her because she doesn't know who I am, she got upset, that she was almost… I did what I have to do to keep her safe." He said in guilt.

Phoenix sigh as she knew this would happen and place a comforting hand on Cat Noir. "Well, you did what you thought was right. But I think you should at least apologize to Marinette from the sudden action you did." She said while gesturing to the shellshock girl.

Cat Noir then turned to her. "I'm sorry. I shouldn't have kissed you again, but you weren't listening to me. I was just trying to help you. To save you. That wasn't a love kiss. It was-" He trailed as he groaned. "I'm just making it worse."

Marinette slowly recovered as she realized what happened, "I was almost akumatized." She whispered in shock before giving Cat Noir and Phoenix a guilt look. "You both were right. I was being totally foolish." She muttered.

"Wait, both of us?" Cat Noir asked in confusion.

Before Phoenix or Marinette could think of an excuse, they then heard screaming as they turn and see Glaciator on a rampage. "Glaciator!? Looks like Monarch found a new poor guy to manipulate." She said.

"I think that's our fault," Mairnette said in guilt. "I think when he saw me and Cat Noir, he must think our love is not to be, since he thinks Ladybug and Cat Noir are a couple." She explained.

Phoenix facepalmed herself from that, "For a city of love, Parisian have a very limited concept of what love is." She muttered.

"I think we should go. Come on!" Cat Noir suggested as he grabbed Marinette and rushed her to a changing booth. "Stay here. Unlit Ladybug and the others capture Monarch's Megakuma, it's too dangerous. I'll come back for you. Come on Phoenix." He added as he rushed off.

Phoenix trailed behind as she look at Marinette solemnly. "Can't say we didn't warn you. And you better call Tikki, because you can't transform without her." She said to her.

"Good idea." Marinette nodded as she call her phone.

"Marinette?" Alya asked through the phone.

"It's me. I'm sorry. You and the girls were right. Loving Cat Noir was a terrible idea." Marinette said in guilt.


"Where are you?" Alya asked as she and the rest of the Zodiac team listened.

"At the ile aux Cygones with Molly. I need Tikki and our team. Quick!" Marinette cried out.

"We better get going. Glaciator is heading this way." Dragold said as he turn to Tikki. "Tikki, get to Marinette as quickly as you can, we'll help Cat Noir and Phoenix slow Glaciator down," he ordered.

"Got it." Tikki nodded as she flew through the walls as the Zodiac team all jumped through the roof and saw Glaciator turning a corner.

"This guy knows where Marinette lives." Caspian commented.

"He knows everyone in Paris," Kara reminded him.

"Good point." Caspian nodded.

"You better transform, Kara. Because I get the feeling we're gonna have a sweet tooth after this." Dragold advised.

"Right, Xuan Wu, Water Flow!" Kara exclaimed as she transformed into Terrapin while doing a superhero pose.

Just then, Cat Noir and Phoenix flew in as they slice Glaciator in half with their weapons as the ice cream man groans as they landed behind him, only to see Glaciator repair himself and aim his fists at them.

"Get back in the garbage, you ugly flea and featherbags!" Glaciator yelled as he fire an ice cream blast at them, which was infuse with Clout as it knocked the two heroes away with a groan.

"Ugh!" Phoenix yelped with a groan as she look up. "The power of the Tiger Miraculous. His ice cream attacks are infuse with Clout."

"Meaning that he's flavors are gonna pack a punch." Cat Noir groaned.

Glaciator turned and walked closer to the bakery. "Ladybug and Cat Noir are made for each other, and nobody has the right to come between them." He said.

Just then, the rest of the Zodiac Team and Pigalle, Rooster Bold, Minotauorox, and Carprikid all came by and tried to attack him, but all their attacks just went right through him.

Glaciator the aim his arms at them and fired multiple blasts, which knocked the heroes back while Dragold mange to land on his knees. "Be careful with his attacks, they're powered with Clout!" He said to them.

"Jule-I mean-Purple Tigress's power?" Pigella said, not saying her friend's name out loud.

"Yes, and we know how powerful that power is, like Cataclysm only a little less," Caspian trailed off, trying to find the right word.

"Cataclysmic?" Rooster Bold offered.

"Yeah, that." Caspian nodded.

"Well, we can't let him do more damages because look!" Terrapin called out as she pointed to the bakery. "He's heading for the bakery!"

"And Marinette's parents, come on!" Cat Noir called out as they rushed to the bakery.

"You've ruined the magic of my ice cream, Marinette. Here's a double scoop for you. Ruin and Destruction!" Glaciator yelled as the heroes rushed past him as he aimed the ice cream arms at the bakery.

The heroes opened the back door, which started Marinette's parents. "You two have to get out of here now!" Dragold yelled to Sabine and Tom as he led them out of the Bakery.

Terrapin was about to follow before she remember someone else in the bakery. "Oh, shoot! Alya!" She exclaimed as she was about to run back in for her, but Glaciator already blasted the bakery to bits as she was pushed back. "NO!" She yelled out.

"Don't worry!" Terrapin perked up as she saw Alya sliding down a fire escape ladder, "Rena Rouge parkour tends to teach you a few things." She said.

"Glad to see you still got it." Terrapin said in relief before they turned and saw the Miraculous Team fighting Glaciator, but also destroying part of the city in the process. "We gotta help them!"

"Agreed." Alya nodded as they all rush to the others while Alya took a different direction while Terrapin rush up to the others.

The heroes all dodge Glaciator blasts as best they could but Clout was too powerful that it knocked them back.

The team all scattered through buildings as they grunted and were dazed by the brisk flight.

"Okay, this might be tougher than we thought." Rooster Bold moaned to Carpikid as he helped him up.

Dragold moved a piece of rumble off him with a grunt as he helped Pigella out, "You good?" He asked her as she nodded and they looked at the destruction Glaciator has done to part of the city with the Tiger Miraculous power. "All this just for love and his ice cream? This isn't right." He muttered.

"When Andre sees a perfect couple he believes they belong to each other and no one else," Pigella told him, "It's Monarch who twisted that."

"Really twisted it." Caspian added as he walked up to them with Minotaurox while rubbing his chest.

"Where's Ladybug? We could really use her Lucky Charm." Carpikid pointed out as he and Rooster Bold came over.

"Oh no, not again!" Hydrake called as he and Phoenix ran by as Glaciator aimed his ice cream fists.

"Brace yourselves!" Phoenix exclaimed as she tripped and fell to the ground.

"Phoenix!" Hydrake shouted as he ran back towards her and help her up as they saw Glaciator towering over them ready to use Clout again as Hydrake held Phoenix close, bracing for impact.

Glaciator hesitated as he was still aiming at them, but saw a perfect couple below him. Then Monarch's light mask appeared, "What are you waiting for Glaciator? Attack!" Monarch ordered.

"I-I can't! I see…" Glaciator arm then started trembling. "I see those two are truly perfect for each other."

Hydrake and Phoenix waited for the blast to hit them, but they felt nothing as they turned and look at Glaciator, hesitating to fire on them. "What's happened? Why he won't attack us?" Hydrake asked in confusion.

Phoenix then remembered, "He won't attack those who are perfect for each other." She said, looking at him with a smile.

"Right, he doesn't hurt couples but what does…" Hydrake trailed off as he realized, "O-Oh, oh." He said as he blushed.

Phoenix gave a slight blush and a giggle as they stood up. "Yeah. Looks like we go together." She said, holding his hands.

Glaciator kept trembling as Monarch spoke to him again. "Don't be fooled! They don't truly love each other! Attack them now!" He ordered.

"Y-Y-Yes, Monarch." Glaciator said hesitantly as his arm kept trembling as he look away so he hoped he missed, which his arm did as he aimed at the rest of the Miraculous Team.

"Incoming!" Dragold exclaimed as Hydrake and Phoenix jumped back when they heard Dragold.

Minotaurox then jumped in front of the heroes, "Resistance!" He exclaimed as he used his powers to become invincible as the Clout blasted him, but he stood his ground.

"Thanks, Minotaurox, but now you only have five minutes!" Cat Noir called out before the blast scattered the heroes again while Minotaurox saw them.

"Guys!" Minotaurox called out before a wall fell over him, which his powers protected him from, but he was still stuck.

Cat Noir rolled across the floor as he hit a rumble with a groan as the others groaned while the others were on the ground in a short distance from the blast while Glaciator marched towards Cat Noir as he stopped.

"Do it, Glaciator. Take his Miraculous." Monarch urged.

Glaciator the reach down to grab Cat Noir's Miraculous, but his ice cream scoop hands make it impossible for him to grab the ring.

Cat Noir gave a chuckle. "Doesn't matter if you're enormous. No hands, no Miraculous." He joked tiredly.

"That's what you think, you naughty kitty." Galicator growled as his real hand came out of the ice cream hand as he reached for the ring.

"Hey!" Alya's voice called as Glaciator pulled back and turned to see the girl wearing a bowl as a helmet, a trash lid as a shield and a broom as a weapon. "Who are you to decide for others whom they're allowed to love or not? If Marinette wants to have ice cream with Cat Noir, that's her prerogative. And if you don't know what flavor to serve her, how about, 'I'm-free-to-make-my-own-choices.' with a touch of, 'Mind-your-own-beeswax,' huh?" She exclaimed.

Glaciator growled as he aimed his arms at Alya, who gasped as she tried to make a run for it as a blast hit where she stood and was tumbled back and fell out cold.

"Alya!" Ladybug's voice called out as Glaciator turned to her and saw her on roof as he blasted Clout at her, which she dodged as she move around while the Miraculous Team got their bearings and stood up and hide.

"Ladybug, Cat Noir, listen to me. Starting with you, Cat Noir." Glaciator started.

The team then ducked under a ruined building to hide out as Glaciator spoke.

"Cat Noir." Ladybug spoke.

"You must be in love with Ladybug, not Marinette." Glaciator spoke out. "Maybe what actually keeps you from loving each other are your Miraculous." He pointed out, "In fact, perhaps what's stopping all of you from loving who are right for you are you Miraculous."

The Miraculous team all flinch especially Cat Noir and Ladybug while the others glared as Glaciator tossed some rumbles away to find them.

"Without them, you would no longer be superheroes. You wouldn't have to defend Paris. You'd be free. Free to be happy and in love." Glaciator exclaimed.

"That guy really has a thing for couples." Caspain muttered.

Ladybug gave a sad look as she turned to Cat Noir. "Hmm, are you really in love with Marinette?" She asked him.

The others flinched at her question as Cat Noir spoke. "It's, complicated." He muttered.

"But it's clear you no longer have feelings for me." Ladybug said solemnly.

"That's not quite true, M'Lady. Let's just say my feelings have changed." Cat Noir said slowly.

"Ladybug, love takes many forms. Love between couples, love between family and love between friends." Dragold told her, "I love you guys as my friends, and I love my family just as much, and there's a girl that someday I hope I can as more than a friend." He said, thinking about a certain girl he had grown close to recently.

"Dragold's right." Phoenix said as she held Hydrake's hand as the two smiled. "Love in any form is precious and sometimes even more powerful than romance."

"But there are times that we just can't pick or force love, we have to embrace what our hearts tell us." Hydrake added. "That sometimes we love someone just as a friend or we love them as something beyond that."

Ladybug thought for a moment before she sighs. "You're right. I'm sorry I overstepped my boundaries with you, Kitty." She apologized to her partner.

"It's okay, MiLady. I did the same to you once upon a time, guess now I know how you must've felt," Cat Noir assured with a smile, "I still love you, but just as a friend, if that's okay?" Cat Noir asked as he raised his fist.

Ladybug smiled back as they fistbumped. "Friends." They both said.

The Miraculous Team smiled at their leaders before they heard Glaciator heading their way.

"He's coming right at us." Dragold seriously. "Now that we all got our heads in the game, we gotta get serious. Ladybug, call up your lucky charm." He ordered.

Ladybug nodded as she brought out her yo-yo. "Lucky charm!" She exclaimed as her lucky charm turned into a parasol.

"Parasols and ice cream go nicely together." Cat Noir joked.

"Then let me see a plan in the future. Foresight!" Hydrake exclaimed as his eyes glowed. He saw that they managed to lure Glaciator into a fire, which caused the ice cream to melt, allowing Dragold to extract the Tiger Miraculous and Ladybug to catch the scooper before his eyes returned to normal. "I know what we have to do. Here's the plan." He said.

The heroes huddled close as Hydrake whispered the plan to them, "Everyone got it?" He asked.

The others nodded as they stood up. "Okay, team. Let's do this. Cat Noir, Hydrake and Phoenix, you're up." Dragold said as the three nodded and rushed towards Glaciator while the other heroes got into position.

Dragold turned to Ladybug, "Sorry LB, but given recent events with you and relationship issues, I'm gonna have to take charge till your heart and head are ready to lead again." He told her.

Ladybug nodded in understanding. "I understand. And I've seen how you lead the team, and I have been having a hard time lately, so I know this is best for the team." She said with a small smile. "You're a great leader, Dragold. I'm glad you're on this team." She added.

Dragold nodded with a grateful smile as the two then got into position.

Glaciator then saw the three heroes coming out from the pillars. "Glaciator, you're right! Me and Hydrake are a perfect couple!" Phoenix exclaimed while she and Hydrake were holding hands together.

"And you win! I'll give you my Miraculous." Cat Noir said as he went to pulled his ring as he pretended that it was stuck. "Oh well, would you look at that. My finger's stuck. Must've gotten bigger from all the ice cream." He lied while waving his hand with a smirk.

Glaciator growled as he walked up to before a huge parasol opened up right in front him. "What's going on? I cannot see anything." He said.

The heroes then group with Dragold and Ladybug as Dragold got into position. "Dragold, now!" Ladybug exclaimed.

"Sorry but you've just run out of the Tiger Clout flavor, ice cream man!" Dragold exclaimed as he took his stance and did his entrance motions. "Miraculous Extraction!" He exclaimed and thrust his arms out to Glaciator.

Glaciator groaned as he felt the purple energy leaving him as he was being pulled back with the light mask of Monarch over his eyes.


In Monarch's lair, he clutched his head in pain as he knew what was happening. "No!" He screamed.

The ring of the Tiger Miraculous flicked as Roarr's cage glowed too, "Oh yeah! See ya Monarch! I'm outta here!" He declared before disappearing.


Back with the heroes, Glaciator then felt the purple light leaving him as it shot out of him and formed the hand chain as Dragold caught the Miraculous and the Kwami.

"Gotcha!" Dragold exclaimed as he then helped the other heroes pull the weakened Glaciator to the fire.

"Stop! What are you doing?" Glaciator moaned as he sat on the bus as the fire melted him. "You're melting my butt! You can't do that." He cried out as the ice cream then melting him back to his human self. "I'm melting! Not fair!" He whined.

Cat Noir tossed his staff at the ice cream scooper and broke it as the Akuma was released.

"No more evildoing for you, Megakuma." Ladybug started as she opened up her yo-yo and twirled it. "Time to De-evilize!" She then swung the Yo-yo and caught the Akuma, "Gotcha! Bye-bye little butterfly." She said as she let the Butterfly go.

The heroes then walk up to Andre, who realizes what he was doing as he saw the heroes in front of him as he gasped as he remembered. "Miraculous Heroes, was I akumatized again?" He asked them as they stood up.

The heroes nodded to him for the questioned, confirming his thoughts as Andre felt guilt. "I'ma sorry. It's just that you make such a beautiful couple, Ladybug and Cat Noir." He said before he smiled. "But, oh well, what matters most is that you're happy." He added.

"Maybe to help avoid future Akumatizations, you should expand your flavors of love combinations to not just couples but also friends and family," Phoenix suggested, "After all, isn't the love you have for your friends and family just as important as the one you lost romantically?" She asked with a smile.

Andre smiled at Phoenix's words. "You're right. I'a maybe a love reader, but I must accept that love takesa many forms and sometimes love of friends and familya is part of it." He said, which made the other heroes smiled.

Ladybug opened her yo-yo to take out a magical charm with Glaciator's color scheme on it and she place it on Andre's hand. "Here's a Magical Charm, Andre. I don't know if it'll be enough to keep you from being akumatized again, but-"

"But it's worth a try!" Andre finished with a smile. "Thank you, Ladybug." He said as he hummed happily away.

"That man sure makes great ice cream based on looking at people." Dragold commented while giving Hydrake and Phoenix a teasing smirk. "And he might get a new combination pretty soon," He said with a teasing smirk.

Phoenix and Hydrake looked at each other as they smiled. "Well, he certainly knows how to tell by looking." Hydrake said while holding Phoenix's hand.

"Even Akumatized Villains can still see love between two people," She said.

"Yeah," Hydrake said as he turned to Phoenix, "Movie tomorrow?" He offered.

"Just tell me when." Phoenix said with a smirk.

"Okay, before we get all lovey dovey, Ladybug, restore the damage." Dragold reminded her.

Ladybug nodded as Cat Noir gave her the parasole. "Miraculous Ladybug!" She exclaimed

The magical ladybugs then restore all the damage and rebuild the destroyed bakery. "Pound it!" The heroes exclaimed, pounding fists before Dragold took out the Tiger Miraculous and saw Roarr.

"Hey, Roarr, hungry and exhausted?" Dragold asked the Tiger Kwami.

Roarr groaned as he gave a weak grin, "Hate to admit it but yeah," He said.

Pigella then took him, "Don't worry, I know where your holder is, I'll take you to her." She said.

"Be sure to bring her over once you do," Terrapin said as Pigella nodded before running off.

Then Sabine and Tom came up to the heroes in concern. "Miraculous Team, where's Marinette?" Tom asked.

And then Alya came up to them. "Don't worry. Marienteet's fine. She got out of the building in time." She explained while Tom and Sabine sigh in relief.

"Perfect. Well then, time for me to go." Cat Noir said as he walked up before Alya grabbed him.

"Hey, Cat Noir, speaking of time, you got a minute for a Ladyblog interview?" Alya as she gave the heroes a wink.

The heroes gave thumbs up as they scattered. "All right. But we gotta make it quick, okay?" Cat Noir stated while his ring started beeping.


In his lair, Monarch growled in frustration at losing his sixth Miraculous, "Dark Wings Fall," he said as he detransformed, as he saw the poison on his arm getting worse.

But then his frown turned into a smirk, "Little heroes, the prospect of giving up your Miraculous to experience love left you all cold. And yet, now I've discovered two burning secrets: Southern Phoenix and Eastern Hydrake are in love and Cat Noir has feelings for Marinette Dupain-Cheng." He said as he narrowed his eyes. "I don't know to what extent, but they exist. And they're weaknesses that I intend to exploit and put an end to the Heroes." He determinedly said.


On the house boat, Luka and Juleka were doing some late night practice, while Luka was keeping the melody, Juleka wasn't doing as well as she's capable of.

Luka notice his sister's reaction. "Hey, sis, you doing okay?" He asked as he place his guitar down and walked up to his sister and sat next to her. "You're melody seems to be lacking its usual beauty, wanna tell me what's blocking it out?"

Juleka sighed as she looked at her right hand while pressing down on it. "It's just, well, I just don't have the tiger in me at the moment." She muttered while rubbing her hand.

Luka looks at his sister's expression as he realizes what's wrong with her. "You miss Roarr, right?" He asked as Juleka nodded her head. "I know how you feel, I'd give anything to see Sass again." He said solemnly.

"Monarch must be torturing them and abusing their powers for his dark vibes." Juleka slowly said.

Luka wraps an arm around him, "If I know Ladybug and Cat Noir, they're not going to stop rocking with the Zodiacs until they give Monarch his final curtain call. And I heard they manage to take back five Miraculous already because of Dragold. Meaning that soon, you and Roarr will jamming out again." He assured her.

Juleka smiled at her brother as the two siblings hug each other before a knocking on their door was heard, which got their attention. Juleka looked to her brother as he gestured for her to answer.

Juleka got up and walked up to the door as she opened it, revealing to be Rose with a cheery smile. "Rose? What are you doing here so late? Isn't it a school night?" She asked before Rose quickly hugged her happily, which caught her by surprise. "Whoa, what's the surprise hug for?"

"Because I got something for you." Rose said as she broke the hug and showed her the small miracle box in front of her. "I think this belongs to you." She said.

Juleka look at the box in wide eyes before she accepted it and slowly opened it as a purple light circled her and then changed into a familiar Kawmi that gave a small roar, "How's it going Jul?" Roarr said with a small wince..

"Roarr, you're back!" Juleka exclaimed loudly as she caught Roarr. "Oh boy, looks like you could use some food." She noted Roarr's exhausted expression.

"I would speak loudly and cheer, but I'm too drained to even roar." Roarr joked before he clutched his stomach.

Juleka laughed as she was about to put on her Miraculous before seeing her Alliance ring, remembering Dragold's warning from the news, she gave a determined expression and took off the ring and toss it to the table and put on the Tiger Miraculous.

Luka came over and smiled, "Looks like Purple Tigress is making a comeback." He said as Juleka turned to him with a smile.

Rose frowned in sympathy, "I'm sorry Luka, but we still haven't saved Sass yet." She said regretfully.

"But you will, eventually." Luka assured as he crossed his arms, "Now, I'm getting the feeling there's somewhere you need to be?"

"Oh, right!" Rose said as she grabbed Juleka's hand, "Marinette invited us for a sleepover, wanna come?" She asked.

Juleka gave a surprise look as she grabbed her suitcase with her spare clothes and pajamas. "I'd love to. I'll see you later bro." She said to her brother.

"You go have fun, sis." Luka said with a smile as the two girls ran off to Marinette's place as he gave a proud smile. "Because I have a feeling that Ladybug's heart song is going to be a lot clearer." He said to himself.


After Marinette said her goodbye to Cat Noir she came down and sat on her bed, miserably as Alya, Molly and Kara came over to her.

"Marinette, that took real courage." Kara complimented with a proud smile.

"It was hard, but it was the right call." Marinette weeped as Alya placed a hand on her shoulder.

"Hey, girl, at least you tried," Alya said with a smile. "Maybe if things were different, you and Cat Noir would work but now you can move on from it." She added.

"And hey, at least you and Cat Noir talked things out, as both Ladybug and Marinette." Molly added with an assuring smile. "So don't worry, your heart will find the perfect guy, someday."

"I don't even know who even is the perfect guy anymore," Marinette said hopelessly.

"Well, I think they might help you find him," Molly said, pointing to the door as Rose and Juleka came up.

"Rose? Juleka?" Marinette asked.

"Hey, there… Ladybug." Juleka said cooly as she came over and hugged her, "And, thank you, for everything."

Marinette was shocked and surprised by this as she turned to Rose, who gave an innocent smile. "I know, but she's your friend too," Rose said.

"And as your friends, we'll help you get your life back on track." Kara promised as Molly and Alya smiled.

Marinette just gave a smile as she hugged Juleka back as tears fell from her eyes and the girls huddled around her for comfort, letting Marinette know that she doesn't have to go through this alone.
