Miraculous: Chloe Bourgeois Time Travel Fix-It.

Chapter 9: Hardhead and Strongman.

(Three hundred and four thousand, six hundred and third Quantic Universe Earth, Paris, France, Wednesday, September 2nd, 2015, third person POV...)

Marinette had just began washing the dishes with her father when the news came on the TV.

On TVi News the next day, Nadia Chamack is updating Paris on the mysterious Stoneheart clones all over the city.

She says while standing next to a picture of a Stoneheart clone with her tablet in hand, "The Stoneheart clones are spread all across the city of Paris, and for the time being at the moment, they are showing no signs of life or movement. (A variety of Stoneheart clone pictures are shown.) The police have cordoned off the areas where the Stoneheart clones are."

Mayor Andre Bourgeois says, "We won't rest until we find a way to get these people back to their normal selves, but as of now, we're not making much progress in that regard."

The camera flips back to Nadia standing next to a picture of Ladybug, Cabbagewing, Moonlight, Longrack, Cat Noir, Lady Blanc, Ginger Shadow, Brune Simba, Goliath Kestrel, Lightning Peregrine, Skylar Merlin, Hawkin Talon, Jet Creech, Aras Arawn, Arden Flash, Shaheen Titan, Thunder Zenith, Avalar Silver, Sky Swoop, Zephryus Whirlwind, Midnight Shadow, Shadow Panther, Rusty Tiger, Inferno, Fire Blaze, Smokey Blade, Pepper Stone, Chrome Moon, Razor Steel, Stormy Phantom, Tornado Granite, Birdflight, Bluefire, Bluestar, Coolblue, Amber Flame, Ruby Blaze, Scarlet Spark, Hunter Talon, Diamond Knight, Lightning Hawk, Caped Elegante, Guardian Wing, Velvet Talon, Feathered Turnstone, Avian Shoveler, Skyrunner, Daggerwing, Arctic Angel, Scarlet Spots, Spotted Royalty, Mister Beetle, Pipevine, Jean Velvet, Bunnyx, Harvey Thumper, Cold Hawk, Shadfly, Sandfly, Dayfly, Fishfly, Darner Wing, Emperor Saber, Star Dasher, Goldenfly, Arrowclaw, Cairochaser, Hawkfeathers, Hunterfang, Onyx Phantom, Sable Shadow, Shade Wraith, Thunder Stryker, Blaze Viper, Riot Fury, Titan Mauler, Nitro Blade, Clash Wrecker, Pyro Surge, Strife Dagger, Brutus Rave, Jagger Rumble, Bullet Slayer, Crowfly, Septimus, Rubeus, Perttu, Ayodeji, Amarillo, Ruby, Pirkka, Marigold, Kerttu, Fangslinger, Aviator, Scalefist, Heartstorm, Thunder Fang, Azure Maw, Blue Bolt, Lightning Ampule, Tesla Streak, Winged Fury, Feather Sentinel, Beak Titan, White Feather, Nightdiver, Crow Avenger, Sky Swan, Crane Titan, Avian Wonder, Tornado Toucan, Phoenix Fury, Tigerstrike, Wolfclaw, Bearbrute, Serpentstrike, Gorillagrip, Loggerpoke, War Charger, Atlas Gladiator, Aquafin, Hydroflow, Scissorclaw, Red Mane, Black Leo, Trick Kitsune, Ursus Supreme, Kolotl, Centaurine, Meili, Grogar, Tidewarden, Hydroblitz, Shadow Neck, Hunter Hound, Trail Tracker, Blight Stalker, Tiger Snake, Hydrodome, Trace Zip, Cottonwinder, Lapinova, Packleader, Wild Lynx, Bridle Hoof, Lennon Flier, Luma, Viajero, Ghost Fish, Hydrotide, Sea Shark, Aqua Wave, Undercurrent, Seawatcher, Moka Gringott, Berserker, Backward Mirror, Moss Master, Acrobat, Ocean Man, Lizard Bleu, Fearlessness, Silent Ninja, Gizmo Tick, Grizzly Feline, Nitro Sable, Death Salvo, Wild Lightning, Queen Anima, Flame Volcano, Bravado Hope, K-9 Investigator, Maestro Flow, Pizza Maker, Lightsilver, Sep Trix, Shadowprowler, Hyper Hooves, Apelinq, Multiplier, Leatherhead, Bloodweed, Seafish, Spectacle Civie, Rhinocharge, Lang Trident, Dead Shifter, Stick Guardian, Rattrap, Packrat, Mightypecker, Slow Cooty, Deathmorpher, Fallen Runner, Soilknitter, Calm Spell, Fern Slowpoke, Smooth Tube, Scarlet Hutter, King Bat, Hot Shaden, Monarch Bat, Dark Dwarf, Mammoth Deer, Zuniga Slayer, Crownflash, Red Sky, Sirocco, Mistral, Monsoon, Cloudburst, Gale, Tempest, Typhoon, Tsunami, Downpour, Whirlwind, Sleet, Twister, Halcyon, Thunderstorm, Windward, Tornado, Aeronomer, Electron, Kinetic, Amperage, Anistrope, Current, Hertz, Candela, Flux, Volt, Joule, Ardor, Magical Swordsman, Fire Master, Red Blade, Silver Claw, Green Lock, Moon Ant, Pink Scythe, Furious Cobra, Metal Power, Francotirador, Combatiente, Chaser-Araña, Amenazza, Bolt-Dickson, Bakery-Espada, Aliento-Girl, and Vesperia.

Nadia then says, "Paris is relying on our new guardian angels, Ladybug, Cabbagewing, Moonlight, Longrack, Cat Noir, Lady Blanc, Ginger Shadow, Brune Simba, Goliath Kestrel, Lightning Peregrine, Skylar Merlin, Hawkin Talon, Jet Creech, Aras Arawn, Arden Flash, Shaheen Titan, Thunder Zenith, Avalar Silver, Sky Swoop, Zephryus Whirlwind, Midnight Shadow, Shadow Panther, Rusty Tiger, Inferno, Fire Blaze, Smokey Blade, Pepper Stone, Chrome Moon, Razor Steel, Stormy Phantom, Tornado Granite, Birdflight, Bluefire, Bluestar, Coolblue, Amber Flame, Ruby Blaze, Scarlet Spark, Hunter Talon, Diamond Knight, Lightning Hawk, Caped Elegante, Guardian Wing, Velvet Talon, Feathered Turnstone, Avian Shoveler, Skyrunner, Daggerwing, Arctic Angel, Scarlet Spots, Spotted Royalty, Mister Beetle, Pipevine, Jean Velvet, Bunnyx, Harvey Thumper, Cold Hawk, Shadfly, Sandfly, Dayfly, Fishfly, Darner Wing, Emperor Saber, Star Dasher, Goldenfly, Arrowclaw, Cairochaser, Hawkfeathers, Hunterfang, Onyx Phantom, Sable Shadow, Shade Wraith, Thunder Stryker, Blaze Viper, Riot Fury, Titan Mauler, Nitro Blade, Clash Wrecker, Pyro Surge, Strife Dagger, Brutus Rave, Jagger Rumble, Bullet Slayer, Crowfly, Septimus, Rubeus, Perttu, Ayodeji, Amarillo, Ruby, Pirkka, Marigold, Kerttu, Fangslinger, Aviator, Scalefist, Heartstorm, Thunder Fang, Azure Maw, Blue Bolt, Lightning Ampule, Tesla Streak, Winged Fury, Feather Sentinel, Beak Titan, White Feather, Nightdiver, Crow Avenger, Sky Swan, Crane Titan, Avian Wonder, Tornado Toucan, Phoenix Fury, Tigerstrike, Wolfclaw, Bearbrute, Serpentstrike, Gorillagrip, Loggerpoke, War Charger, Atlas Gladiator, Aquafin, Hydroflow, Scissorclaw, Red Mane, Black Leo, Trick Kitsune, Ursus Supreme, Kolotl, Centaurine, Meili, Grogar, Tidewarden, Hydroblitz, Shadow Neck, Hunter Hound, Trail Tracker, Blight Stalker, Tiger Snake, Hydrodome, Trace Zip, Cottonwinder, Lapinova, Packleader, Wild Lynx, Bridle Hoof, Lennon Flier, Luma, Viajero, Ghost Fish, Hydrotide, Sea Shark, Aqua Wave, Undercurrent, Seawatcher, Moka Gringott, Berserker, Backward Mirror, Moss Master, Acrobat, Ocean Man, Lizard Bleu, Fearlessness, Silent Ninja, Gizmo Tick, Grizzly Feline, Nitro Sable, Death Salvo, Wild Lightning, Queen Anima, Flame Volcano, Bravado Hope, K-9 Investigator, Maestro Flow, Pizza Maker, Lightsilver, Sep Trix, Shadowprowler, Hyper Hooves, Apelinq, Multiplier, Leatherhead, Bloodweed, Seafish, Spectacle Civie, Rhinocharge, Lang Trident, Dead Shifter, Stick Guardian, Rattrap, Packrat, Mightypecker, Slow Cooty, Deathmorpher, Fallen Runner, Soilknitter, Calm Spell, Fern Slowpoke, Smooth Tube, Scarlet Hutter, King Bat, Hot Shaden, Monarch Bat, Dark Dwarf, Mammoth Deer, Zuniga Slayer, Crownflash, Red Sky, Sirocco, Mistral, Monsoon, Cloudburst, Gale, Tempest, Typhoon, Tsunami, Downpour, Whirlwind, Sleet, Twister, Halcyon, Thunderstorm, Windward, Tornado, Aeronomer, Electron, Kinetic, Amperage, Anistrope, Current, Hertz, Candela, Flux, Volt, Joule, Ardor, Magical Swordsman, Fire Master, Red Blade, Silver Claw, Green Lock, Moon Ant, Pink Scythe, Furious Cobra, Metal Power, Francotirador, Combatiente, Chaser-Araña, Amenazza, Bolt-Dickson, Bakery-Espada, Aliento-Girl, and Vesperia, to save us all. Our lives depend on them."

In Marinette's home, she's watching the news broadcast next to her father as he washes the breakfast dishes.

Marinette looks closer to popping a blood vessel in anger.

Tom turns around and puts his left arm around her shoulders as he says, "Listen, I understand how demoralizing it is the second time around since you recovered your memories, but don't worry, sweetie; you've got me, your mother, Cabbagewing, Moonlight, Longrack, Cat Noir, Lady Blanc, Ginger Shadow, Brune Simba, Goliath Kestrel, Lightning Peregrine, Skylar Merlin, Hawkin Talon, Jet Creech, Aras Arawn, Arden Flash, Shaheen Titan, Thunder Zenith, Avalar Silver, Sky Swoop, Zephryus Whirlwind, Midnight Shadow, Shadow Panther, Rusty Tiger, Inferno, Fire Blaze, Smokey Blade, Pepper Stone, Chrome Moon, Razor Steel, Stormy Phantom, Tornado Granite, Birdflight, Bluefire, Bluestar, Coolblue, Amber Flame, Ruby Blaze, Scarlet Spark, Hunter Talon, Diamond Knight, Lightning Hawk, Caped Elegante, Guardian Wing, Velvet Talon, Feathered Turnstone, Avian Shoveler, Skyrunner, Daggerwing, Arctic Angel, Scarlet Spots, Spotted Royalty, Mister Beetle, Bunnyx, Harvey Thumper, Cold Hawk, Shadfly, Sandfly, Dayfly, Fishfly, Darner Wing, Emperor Saber, Star Dasher, Goldenfly, Arrowclaw, Cairochaser, Hawkfeathers, Hunterfang, Onyx Phantom, Sable Shadow, Shade Wraith, Thunder Stryker, Blaze Viper, Riot Fury, Titan Mauler, Nitro Blade, Clash Wrecker, Pyro Surge, Strife Dagger, Brutus Rave, Jagger Rumble, Bullet Slayer, Crowfly, Septimus, Rubeus, Perttu, Ayodeji, Amarillo, Ruby, Pirkka, Marigold, Kerttu, Fangslinger, Aviator, Scalefist, Heartstorm, Thunder Fang, Azure Maw, Blue Bolt, Lightning Ampule, Tesla Streak, Winged Fury, Feather Sentinel, Beak Titan, White Feather, Nightdiver, Crow Avenger, Sky Swan, Crane Titan, Avian Wonder, Tornado Toucan, Phoenix Fury, Tigerstrike, Wolfclaw, Bearbrute, Serpentstrike, Gorillagrip, Loggerpoke, War Charger, Atlas Gladiator, Aquafin, Hydroflow, Scissorclaw, Red Mane, Black Leo, Trick Kitsune, Ursus Supreme, Kolotl, Centaurine, Meili, Grogar, Tidewarden, Hydroblitz, Shadow Neck, Hunter Hound, Trail Tracker, Blight Stalker, Tiger Snake, Hydrodome, Trace Zip, Cottonwinder, Lapinova, Packleader, Wild Lynx, Bridle Hoof, Lennon Flier, Luma, Viajero, Ghost Fish, Hydrotide, Sea Shark, Aqua Wave, Undercurrent, Seawatcher, Moka Gringott, Berserker, Backward Mirror, Moss Master, Acrobat, Ocean Man, Lizard Bleu, Fearlessness, Silent Ninja, Gizmo Tick, Grizzly Feline, Nitro Sable, Death Salvo, Wild Lightning, Queen Anima, Flame Volcano, Bravado Hope, K-9 Investigator, Maestro Flow, Pizza Maker, Lightsilver, Sep Trix, Shadowprowler, Hyper Hooves, Apelinq, Multiplier, Leatherhead, Bloodweed, Seafish, Spectacle Civie, Rhinocharge, Lang Trident, Dead Shifter, Stick Guardian, Rattrap, Packrat, Mightypecker, Slow Cooty, Deathmorpher, Fallen Runner, Soilknitter, Calm Spell, Fern Slowpoke, Smooth Tube, Scarlet Hutter, King Bat, Hot Shaden, Monarch Bat, Dark Dwarf, Mammoth Deer, Zuniga Slayer, Crownflash, Red Sky, Sirocco, Mistral, Monsoon, Cloudburst, Gale, Tempest, Typhoon, Tsunami, Downpour, Whirlwind, Sleet, Twister, Halcyon, Thunderstorm, Windward, Tornado, Aeronomer, Electron, Kinetic, Amperage, Anistrope, Current, Hertz, Candela, Flux, Volt, Joule, Ardor, Magical Swordsman, Fire Master, Red Blade, Silver Claw, Green Lock, Moon Ant, Pink Scythe, Furious Cobra, Metal Power, Francotirador, Combatiente, Chaser-Araña, Amenazza, Bolt-Dickson, Bakery-Espada, Aliento-Girl, and Vesperia this time around. And the best way for us to help the people of our city is to show them that we're not afraid of Hawk Moth no matter who takes up the identity of Hawk Moth, because we trust you and Master Fu."

Tom raises a fist and scrunches his face with confidence and faith.

Marinette then asks, "And if I fail, you'd help me because I'm your little girl despite my current physical age?"

Tom answers while holding a traditional Chinese fan Marinette made after the war fan of the two Peacock Miraculouses, "Of course, I would. Jean Velvet to the rescue!"

Marinette remarks, "Hehehehehehehehehe. You and Mom always know what to say to make me laugh, Dad."

Marinette then kisses her father on his left cheek, thankful that her newfound height because of the Dupain genes in her DNA inherited from her father puts her at odds with Gabriel Agreste.

Marinette heads to her room and grabs her purse.

She pauses for a moment to look in her vanity mirror and she notices Tikki in her Tillyan Maberly human form, now hired as a janitor in Francoise Dupont High School.

Marinette smiles a bit, knowing that Chloe's plans were coming true.

In the Grand Paris Hotel, Chloe says, "Kwamis, please guard our rooms until we come back."

The kwamis reply, "Yes, ma'am!" in unison.

In the Agreste Mansion's dining room, Nathalie is waiting for Adrien.

Nathalie looks at the time and asks herself as the clock tolls once, "Hmm, what's he doing?"

Nathalie looks for Adrien in his room, and she asks, "Adrien?" but he's not in there.

Near the staircase and entrance of the mansion, Nathalie and Placide stand side by side as Gabriel looks down upon them, and he looks furious.

Gabriel demands before saying, "You didn't see him leave?! If anything has happened to my son, you'll be held responsible! Now find him!"

Meanwhile, Adrien runs to the Place des Vosges park before starting to use his flawless camouflaging power to sneakily get to school faster without being recognized.

Plagg then says in a whisper, "(Softly) I can't believe I'm saying this, but I was a total idiot for thinking that kids should be allowed to stay at home all day."

Adrien replies in a whisper, "(Softly) And since I have the opportunity to start all over again, we're gonna have to build up every edge we need to apprehend Gabriel on Heroes' Day."

Plagg then replies in a whisper, "(Softly) Yeah, you got that right, kid."

Adrien continues to school while taking advantage of his camouflage and invisibility powers.

Meanwhile, at Francoise Dupont High School, Alya was talking with Marinette about her new blog, the Ladyblog.

This not only made Marinette remember people asking her as Ladybug why Alya was singling her out, but also made her remember Alya's bullheaded stubbornness, her disregard for privacy, and her somewhat obsessive love for superheroes made her all too gullible when it comes to Lila Rossi's lies. Especially since Marinette's last night experience with the Owl Miraculous made her realize Lila's true colors even more, and thus this made her determined to put Hawk Moth, Mayura, and Lila behind bars before they can truly cause irreparable harm in the future, regardless of the timeline order of the two to three timelines that are similarly different to each other and regardless of who or what tries to stop her from making sure that Gabriel's victory and Lila's ascension to ultimate villainy never happen again.

Alya says, "The Ladyblog, (She hands Marinette her phone) bringing you all of the latest news about the coolest superhero to date, Ladybug! How awesome is that, Mari? (She politely takes her phone back) Check out the number of views I'd gotten since I posted the video!"

Marinette then asks, "Alya, are you singling out Ladybug?"

Alya asks in response, "No. Why?"

Marinette points out, "Because Ladybug has a team of superheroes at her command aside from just Cat Noir, and you singling out Ladybug is gonna make people start asking questions, and it's also gonna make people think that you think Ladybug is the only important superhero in Paris today and by that reckoning, people might start asking you if you think that every member of the Oracle Knights is irrelevant except for Ladybug. If any of that happens, you could lose viewers and your blog's popularity will fall closer to below fifty percent."

Alya's eyes widened before she hurriedly changed her blog name to the Oracle Knight Blog.

Marinette then asks, "So, Alya, if you were granted the opportunity to become a superhero even despite knowing the risks including being late for school, being late for work in a professional job, having to lie and keep secrets from friends and family alike, having to avoid getting chummy with even your friends from your civilian life, and having to follow the Law of Paris even at the risk of getting constantly frustrated by the superhero rules of saving lesser villains and never killing any enemies, would you take it?"

Alya replies, "Of course, I would. I know all the rules of being a superhero because of my following of comic book and real life superheroes like Majestia and the United Heroez."

Marinette then asks, "And what if the trials to become a superhero included having to prove your trustworthiness in a situation where our classmates meet someone new, but only two of us knows that the someone new in our class is actually a sociopathic psycho liar who refuses to listen to reason and who won't hesitate to make even you ruin your future and reputation by using your interests of reporting and superheroes as a psychological weapon, along with being in the situation where an added consequence is the total removal of your powers and outfit by a superhero commanding officer for failing to pass a test of character and a test of trustworthiness? Hypothetically speaking, of course."

Alya thinks for a moment before answering, "I got nothing. But if what you're asking me is true, then I'd have to have a long overdue lecture on how to recognize lies and how to not take things at face value."

Marinette replies before asking and before deciding to tease Alya, "Good. That's good to hear. But in all seriousness, Alya, why do you trust Ladybug in particular so much? You know she didn't know about Hawk Moth's loophole. Wait, do you have a crush on Ladybug?"

Alya blushes before answering, "Well, no, but I would love to interview her. But don't worry, she's gonna handle the Stoneheart clones."

Marinette then says, "Call it a hunch, but something tells me that the only way the clones will be restored to normal is if the original Akuma butterfly is purified after Ivan becomes Stoneheart again and gets defeated again."

Alya asks, "Are you sure?"

Marinette replies before asking again, "Like I said, it's a hunch. But what if she doesn't finish her seven year and six month required amount of training before Hawk Moth strikes again?"

Alya then asks before saying, "What do you mean, girl? Oh, wait. I know what this is about. (Marinette raises an eyebrow this time) You're scared."

Marinette answers, "More or less I'm scared of what will happen if I or anyone in my life gets Akumatized, including my parents, and any of my visiting relatives in China."

Alya replies, "Ohh. Well, that makes sense. But don't be scared, Marinette; I remember asking Ms. Bustier in the school email if you attended therapy for anything, and she told me that while this information is confidential, she always said to keep your emotions in check and find constructive, safe outlets for any feelings of grief, anger, or fear. Besides, I've seen Ladybug with my own pair of eyes. Ladybug and her team are true superheroes even though some of them haven't finished their training yet. They're going to protect us all, even if it costs them their futures and their lives. I believe in them."

Marinette replies, "You're right, you're right." Then she hugs Alya while saying, "But I'm glad to have you as one of my new best friends."

Alya awkwardly hugs Marinette before gently pushing her off.

Marinette nods in understanding before she walks into the courtyard to see Alix, Juleka, Nino, Rose, Max, and Kim gathered around Ivan.

Ivan says, "Sorry for the damage Stoneheart caused even though I don't remember anything. I hope there's no hard feelings."

Kim replies, "No harm, no foul, Ivan."

Alix then asks, "So, based on what Pipevine said in her press conference last night, you didn't remember anything after you were returned to normal?"

Ivan replies, "No."

Max then says, "Well, I do remember Pipevine said that as long as an Akumatized victim doesn't willingly ally with Hawk Moth, they won't be able to remember what they did under his control, like a bad dream that can't be remembered unless you write it down in a notebook journal or a notepad as soon as possible."

Ivan replies, "Oh. Well, that explains why I don't remember what happened."

Juleka then says, "You were totally going berserk. It was so cool!"

Marinette then asks, "Juleka, would it have been cool if Ivan had killed Kim or gotten killed by a cryogenic weapon employed by the French armed forces if the Oracle Knights weren't there to return him to normal just in time?"

Juleka's eyes widened as she realized how serious the situation is.

Marinette then says, "I get that you think scary, horrifying things are cool, but remember that in real life, supervillains, terrorists, aliens like the Skrulls, and demons like Mephistopheles are truly evil abominations that either want to destroy our world and future so they can remake all of existence in their own image or they want to amass high amounts of money and high kill counts or they want to rule different parts of the world like Adolf Hitler wanted to and would've succeeded in doing so if he and the Nazis had won World War II. Think about your words about scary subjects very carefully before you even think about opening your mouth, because not everyone is going to agree with you. Understand?"

Juleka replies, "Yes, I understand."

Ivan looks at Mylene, but when she looks back, she averts her gaze.

Marinette comes over to Ivan and hugs him, showing that because she's as muscular and tall as Gabriel Agreste, she easily has Ivan in a warm and protective embrace.

Ivan then hugs Marinette back.

Chloe then comes up with Sabrina and Chloe says, "Well said, guys. Well said."

Marinette nods while Max gives an okay sign.

Chloe then says, "Now, Ivan, remember, as long as Hawk Moth abuses the original Butterfly Miraculous for his evil goals, nobody is more responsible for the death counts and expensive damages than he is, no matter what or who tries to say otherwise."

Ivan smiles at Chloe even as Marinette releases the hug.

Just then, a girl roughly the same age as Ivan scoffs, sounding like a combination of Nathalie Sancoeur, Canon Chloe, Canon Zoe, and Audrey Bourgeois as a teenager put together, "Pff! Once a monster, always a monster."

Ivan growls, but Marinette's growl sounds louder, sounding like a female Optimus Prime growling.

The girl in question, Sydney Babillote, looks scared for her life, especially since Marinette was rolling her eyes up to hide the irises, Just like the CWF/CWE wrestler, the Gravedigger, and she doesn't notice everyone quivering, even Kim and Alix.

Sydney then says as Marinette slowly walks closer, "He-hey, l-look, I-I-I w-was only j-joking."

Marinette roars slightly animalistically, making Sydney shriek as she runs away.

Ivan marches away, and Sydney whispers under her breath, "(Softly) Don't let the door hit you on the way out."

In Hawk Moth's lair, the window opens.

Hawk Moth remarks, "Yes... feel the burning of those words. Lose your temper, Ivan! Your Akuma awaits for you."

Hawk Moth taps the gemstone of his cane, still holding the second original Akuma.

Outside the school, Adrien hides behind the bushes of the school in invisible camouflage, and the Agreste car drives past twice before driving away.

Seeing that the coast is clear, Adrien enters the school.

Inside the school, Alya says to Mr. Damocles, "So therefore, if Ivan gets Akumatized again and Sydney gets killed, if you'll pardon my choice of words, there'll be hell to pay."

Mr. Damocles replies, "Not to worry, Ms. Cesaire, I'll deal with it. After all, what kind of school principal would I be if I didn't do my job the proper way?"

Alya replies back, "Thank you for the time, sir. Good day to you." And Alya exits Mr. Damocles' office.

In the courtyard, Chloe and Marinette are indistinctly whispering to each other before Marinette rushes to the locker room.

Adrien then says, "Hey, Chloe!"

Chloe turns around and says, "Hi, Adrien."

Chloe hugs Adrien for two seconds before saying, "Now, come along, we gotta get to class."

Adrien then says, "Chloe, I'm so excited! When do I get to meet – "

Chloe replies, "You'll get to meet everyone in our classroom when and only when we get to class, because class is going to start in five minutes. And if you have any questions, ask me, or Sabrina. Our class is in general kindhearted and polite, so don't worry about difficulties in making friends."

Chloe guides Adrien to Ms. Bustier's classroom.

In the locker room, Marinette sees Ivan sitting on the ground, looking down with his headphones on.

Marinette gets Ivan's attention, and he takes off his headphones to let him hear what she has to say.

Marinette says, "If you want help in telling Mylene you love her, I can help you."

Ivan tries to lie as he replies, "I... don't know what you're talking about."

Marinette replies back before saying, "Yes, you do. Anyway, whenever someone like you needs help confessing, there are other ways besides words. You can either draw for her a picture, or send her flowers."

Ivan asks hopefully, "I could... write her a song?"

Marinette replies before pointing out, "Yes, but remember, rock and roll music is not the appropriate genre for a love song, and you'll have to practice your singing voice, because if you don't practice your singing voice and if you don't select lighthearted music for your song, you'll scare Mylene away."

Ivan nods fiercely.

Marinette then takes out a paper and says, "Read this if you need inspiration."

Ivan reads the paper and sees recommendations for blues music, soul music, and pop music for love songs, along with three selections of different love songs in the three recommended genres.

Ivan says, "Oh, thank you, Marinette!"

Ivan gets up and runs off, excited.

Marinette gets up as well, and runs off to Ms. Bustier's classroom.

In Hawk Moth's lair, Hawk Moth slams the bottom part of his cane onto the floor as he snarls, "His negative emotions... they're fading! Ughhhh...!"

Meanwhile, Chloe, Sabrina, and Adrien enter Ms. Bustier's classroom.

Chloe says, "Here we are, Adrien; Ms. Bustier's classroom. Sit anywhere that you find yourself comfortable with and while being able to pay attention to the class subjects."

Adrien replies, "Thanks, Chloe. I mean it."

Adrien approaches Nino and says, "Hey. I'm Adrien."

Nino replies as he shakes Adrien's hand, "Nino Lahiffe, but you can call me Nino. Any friend of Chloe's is my friend too."

Adrien then sees Chloe and Sabrina sitting together.

Marinette and Alya enter Ms. Bustier's classroom together.

Marinette sees Adrien sitting in next to Nino and asks in shock, "Adrien?!"

Adrien asks in shock as well, "Marinette?!"

Marinette and Adrien share a brief hug before Marinette sits at her desk.

Alya then asks, "Girl, how do you know Adrien Agreste?"

Marinette says while remembering how she really met Adrien in the new timeline, "Adrien and I met when I was six years old, after I had gotten my kite stuck in a tree in the Place des Vosges. Adrien was there because he and his father's team was getting ready for a photoshoot. Adrien noticed how I was in tears over my kite, so he got some help from some of his father's workers to get my kite. Adrien handed me my kite, and I tearfully thanked him for returning my kite. Since then, any time Adrien wanted something to eat if it was in accordance with his father's appointed model diet, his mother Emilie Agreste would stop by to purchase the food Adrien wanted after working long hours for his father's company. And of course, when I was starting my Chinese speaking lessons with my tutor Wai-Kuen Chan, Adrien helped me further in my education of speaking Chinese. Eventually, our feelings for each other grew, but when Emilie died, Gabriel changed in a bad way. He became overbearingly strict, possessive, controlling, neglectful, cold, and emotionally distant. He restricted Adrien's interactions with me and Chloe, and even worse, he followed through on his previous refusals to enroll Adrien in public school. And besides, the Parisian Penal Code, Book II, Title II, Chapter VII, Section V, Article 227-17 says, and I quote, '"The act, done by the father or mother, of not doing, without legitimate reasons, their legal obligations toward their minor child to the point that it compromises the child's health, security, morality or education is punished with 2 years of prison and a fine of 30,000 euros."' And the Parisian Penal Code, Book II, Title II, Chapter VII, Section V, Article 227-17-1 says this, and I quote, '"The act, done by the child's parent or any type of guardian that has parental authority or continued, to not register the child in an educational establishment, without an acceptable excuse, and even after the demand from the government, is punished with 6 months of prison and a fine of 7,500 euros."' Basically, if Gabriel had ever committed those crimes, he'd be in serious trouble."

Nino says, "Dudette, how can you be sure?"

Marinette answers, "After becoming friends with Chloe and Sabrina, I not only learned hard about Parisian politics, but also Parisian law, and I also learned how to recognize when someone outside of Gabriel Agreste is shirking their duties as a parent, even outside of not thinking straight after time for grief."

Adrien knew that thanks to the "memory downloading," Marinette only said that to lead the class astray even though Marinette actually did do that, but even he knew that the statements about the laws his father broke were also true, and even Adrien knew that it was the wrong time and place to recruit their new Oracle Knights members. So, he decided to stay silent, even as he fought his anger and sadness over his Sentimonster origins, his mother's death, and his father's crimes as Hawk Moth, along with crimes he as a human being committed with no regrets, complaints, or attention to.

Meanwhile, in the locker room, at the door to the girls' bathroom, Mylene says as she runs out of the bathroom, "Oh, no, I'm gonna be late!"

Mylene runs out the bathroom and sees Ivan standing there.

Mylene says, "Ahh! Ivan, you scared me."

Ivan says, "Sorry. I just, I know I seem like a big bully, but I'm actually a nice guy when you get to know me, and I love you, Mylene."

Mylene blushes a bit before saying, "I-I love you too, Ivan."

Mylene runs out of the locker room.

Ivan growls, wads up his lyric sheet, throws his phone onto the floor, steps on it, and sits down.

In Hawk Moth's lair, the window opens again and Hawk Moth says, "Yes, this is what I've been waiting for. You know the way, my evil Akuma. Track down your prey! Fly away and evilize him once again!"

The Akuma leaves the gemstone in Hawk Moth's cane and flies to the Francoise Dupont locker room.

In the locker room, Ivan is still mad even though he's not really mad at Marinette for suggesting he practice his singing voice while singing a love song from the blues genre.

The Akuma flies in and enters Ivan's wadded up sheet of song lyrics.

As the butterfly symbol appears, Hawk Moth says, "This is your second chance, Stoneheart, and this time, you have extra help. No one will stop you from capturing the heart of the love of your life. Just remember, I'll need something in return: Ladybug, Cabbagewing, Moonlight, Longrack, Cat Noir, Lady Blanc, Ginger Shadow, Brune Simba, Goliath Kestrel, Lightning Peregrine, Skylar Merlin, Hawkin Talon, Jet Creech, Aras Arawn, Arden Flash, Shaheen Titan, Thunder Zenith, Avalar Silver, Sky Swoop, Zephryus Whirlwind, Midnight Shadow, Shadow Panther, Rusty Tiger, Inferno, Fire Blaze, Smokey Blade, Pepper Stone, Chrome Moon, Razor Steel, Stormy Phantom, Tornado Granite, Birdflight, Bluefire, Bluestar, Coolblue, Amber Flame, Ruby Blaze, Scarlet Spark, Hunter Talon, Diamond Knight, Lightning Hawk, Caped Elegante, Guardian Wing, Velvet Talon, Feathered Turnstone, Avian Shoveler, Skyrunner, Daggerwing, Arctic Angel, Scarlet Spots, Spotted Royalty, Mister Beetle, Pipevine, Jean Velvet, Bunnyx, Harvey Thumper, Cold Hawk, Shadfly, Sandfly, Dayfly, Fishfly, Darner Wing, Emperor Saber, Star Dasher, Goldenfly, Arrowclaw, Cairochaser, Hawkfeathers, Hunterfang, Onyx Phantom, Sable Shadow, Shade Wraith, Thunder Stryker, Blaze Viper, Riot Fury, Titan Mauler, Nitro Blade, Clash Wrecker, Pyro Surge, Strife Dagger, Brutus Rave, Jagger Rumble, Bullet Slayer, Crowfly, Septimus, Rubeus, Perttu, Ayodeji, Amarillo, Ruby, Pirkka, Marigold, Kerttu, Fangslinger, Aviator, Scalefist, Heartstorm, Thunder Fang, Azure Maw, Blue Bolt, Lightning Ampule, Tesla Streak, Winged Fury, Feather Sentinel, Beak Titan, White Feather, Nightdiver, Crow Avenger, Sky Swan, Crane Titan, Avian Wonder, Tornado Toucan, Phoenix Fury, Tigerstrike, Wolfclaw, Bearbrute, Serpentstrike, Gorillagrip, Loggerpoke, War Charger, Atlas Gladiator, Aquafin, Hydroflow, Scissorclaw, Red Mane, Black Leo, Trick Kitsune, Ursus Supreme, Kolotl, Centaurine, Meili, Grogar, Tidewarden, Hydroblitz, Shadow Neck, Hunter Hound, Trail Tracker, Blight Stalker, Tiger Snake, Hydrodome, Trace Zip, Cottonwinder, Lapinova, Packleader, Wild Lynx, Bridle Hoof, Lennon Flier, Luma, Viajero, Ghost Fish, Hydrotide, Sea Shark, Aqua Wave, Undercurrent, Seawatcher, Moka Gringott, Berserker, Backward Mirror, Moss Master, Acrobat, Ocean Man, Lizard Bleu, Fearlessness, Silent Ninja, Gizmo Tick, Grizzly Feline, Nitro Sable, Death Salvo, Wild Lightning, Queen Anima, Flame Volcano, Bravado Hope, K-9 Investigator, Maestro Flow, Pizza Maker, Lightsilver, Sep Trix, Shadowprowler, Hyper Hooves, Apelinq, Multiplier, Leatherhead, Bloodweed, Seafish, Spectacle Civie, Rhinocharge, Lang Trident, Dead Shifter, Stick Guardian, Rattrap, Packrat, Mightypecker, Slow Cooty, Deathmorpher, Fallen Runner, Soilknitter, Calm Spell, Fern Slowpoke, Smooth Tube, Scarlet Hutter, King Bat, Hot Shaden, Monarch Bat, Dark Dwarf, Mammoth Deer, Zuniga Slayer, Crownflash, Red Sky, Sirocco, Mistral, Monsoon, Cloudburst, Gale, Tempest, Typhoon, Tsunami, Downpour, Whirlwind, Sleet, Twister, Halcyon, Thunderstorm, Windward, Tornado, Aeronomer, Electron, Kinetic, Amperage, Anistrope, Current, Hertz, Candela, Flux, Volt, Joule, Ardor, Magical Swordsman, Fire Master, Red Blade, Silver Claw, Green Lock, Moon Ant, Pink Scythe, Furious Cobra, Metal Power, Francotirador, Combatiente, Chaser-Araña, Amenazza, Bolt-Dickson, Bakery-Espada, Aliento-Girl, and Vesperia's Miraculouses."

Ivan growls as he smiles sinisterly, and he gets Akumatized into Stoneheart again.

After Stoneheart takes a few steps forward, he opens his eyes and all the other Stonehearts in Paris start waking up, with two Stoneheart clones throwing cars at police officers.

In Ms. Bustier's classroom, Ms. Bustier is taking attendance.

Ms. Bustier asks, "Agreste, Adrien?"

Nino says in a whisper to Adrien, "(Softly) You say present."

Adrien says as he jumps up with his hand raised, "Uh, present!"

All the other students laugh except for Chloe, Sabrina, and Marinette, but Ms. Bustier snaps before saying in a dangerously calm tone, "Class! You should know better than to laugh at a newcomer like Adrien who's unfamiliar with school culture! If this sort of thing happens again, the laughers will get detention."

Everyone quiets down, Adrien sits, and he and Nino do a fist-bump.

Ms. Bustier then asks, "Bourgeois, Chloe?"

Chloe answers, "Present, ma'am."

Ms. Bustier then asks, "Bruel, Ivan?"

Stoneheart enters, breaking the door and making Ms. Bustier drop her tablet in fright, and he shouts, "Present! Mylene?!"

Everyone shrieks as Adrien, Nino, Chloe, Sabrina, and Marinette quietly and quickly rush out of the classroom.

Stoneheart sees Mylene and grabs her.

Mylene shrieks in fright as she says, "Let go of me, Ivan!"

Stoneheart replies, "I'm not Ivan anymore. I'm Stoneheart."

Mylene asks, "Why are you doing this?"

Stoneheart replies, "So the both of us can be together forever!"

Sydney then says into her phone, "Mr. Mayor, the monster is back!"

Stoneheart roars, "YOU!" and he grabs Sydney in his other hand, careful not to drop the wadded sheet of paper again.

Sydney shrieks, "Please, no!"

Stoneheart breaks a wall and jumps out of the school.

Mylene shrieks, "Put us down, Ivan!"

Alya looks around for Marinette, but she can't seem to find the blue-haired girl anywhere.

Alya mutters, "Where on Earth did she go?"

Alya then says as she comes to the wrong conclusion, "Oh, I get it; she went ahead of me to see Ladybug and the team in action!"

Alya runs out of the classroom, forgetting her bag.

In the locker room, Adrien asks Marinette while pointing to Alix's locker, "This is Alix's locker, right?"

Marinette replies, "Yep."

Adrien bemoans, "Once again, my first day of middle school and I don't even make it past roll call."

Plagg replies, "Yeah, but remember, if things go according to plan, your father will let you go to school while being driven by your bodyguard."

Adrien replies, "Yep, got that right. Stoneheart and his clones will be difficult to defeat a second time, even with additional reinforcements."

A voice replies, "And this time, you and your team have help."

Marinette and Adrien turn around to see their old friends by the names of Aziel Barlowe, Aoife Caddel, Osvaldo Hart, Tenley Katz, Reggie Laurier, Calista Madden, Atlas Elrod, Brea Whitlock, Alfie Allaband, Lorelei Amspoker, Orson Banasiewicz, Harlow Bidelspach, Prescott Pacyna, Rosario Taddei, Frederick Jennings, Michaela Cacciola, Elias Naderi, Iris Eagleton, Sylas Dawson, Renata Racioppi, Sawyer Gadomski, Jade Ibanez, Khalid Kainer, and Darla Malcolm, twenty-four people from the "real world" who helped them recover their memories, analyze what they did wrong, analyze what the people around them did wrong, analyze what was going to happen in the future if Lila used her accumulated data as blackmail and as a way of framing Ladybug and her secret-keeping allies for obstructing justice and for willingly covering up the crimes of a dead terrorist, analyze what should've happened in the future, Gabriel's brief ten minutes of considering giving up the Butterfly Miraculous, the Peacock Miraculous, and the grimoire aside, Queen Bee's public identity being public aside, and Mayura's interference on Heroes' Day at the last minute aside, and analyze the rest of the problems of everyone else in their lives, past, present, and future.

Marinette then says, "Shall we?"

The 2 dozen interdimensional recruits nod in unison.

Marinette, Adrien, Aziel, Aoife, Osvaldo, Tenley, Reggie, Calista, Atlas, Brea, Alfie, Lorelei, Orson, Harlow, Prescott, Rosario, Frederick, Michaela, Elias, Iris, Sylas, Renata, Sawyer, Jade, Khalid, and Darla say in unison, "Tikki, Spots On!" "Plagg, Claws Out!" "Hoornor, Tail Wings Rise!" "Sparrii, Incubate My Feathers!" "Gullii, Nest The Storm!" "Flaam, Flocks of Heroism!" "Leemon, Flying Beak On!" "Daancer, Mocking Eggs Hatch!" "Spaarky, Migrating Feathers Out!" "Squaawk, Let's Fly Up!" "Daaisy, Feathers On!" "Maango, Wings On!" "Greeta, Swallow Cage!" "Yaara, Full Flight!" "Ozzy, Nesting Wings!" "Louuie, Birdhouse Flock!" "Duusty, Flight Wings Rise!" "Sammyy, Feather Nest!" "Spiike, Tails Fly!" "Stellaa, Mocking Bill On!" "Romeeo, Feathers of Justice!" "Maacaw, Incubate My Wings!" "Apriil, Watch the Cage!" "Baangles, Flight Bill!" "Iriis, Magpie Tail Out!" and "Juuniper, Migration!"

Marinette and Adrien transform into Ladybug and Cat Noir while Aziel, Aoife, Osvaldo, Tenley, Reggie, Calista, Atlas, Brea, Alfie, Lorelei, Orson, Harlow, Prescott, Rosario, Frederick, Michaela, Elias, Iris, Sylas, Renata, Sawyer, Jade, Khalid, and Darla, with the Walden's Hornbill, New Zealand Rock Wren, Imperial Amazon Parrot, Blue-Eyed Ground Dove, Cebu Flowerpecker, Crescent-Caped Lophorina Bird Of Paradise, Madagascar Pochard, Christmas Frigatebird, Orange-Bellied Parrot, Spoon-Billed Sandpiper, Honduran Emerald Hummingbird, Red-Crowned Crane, Black Stilt, White-Bellied Heron, Wood Stork, Kagu, Kirtland's Warbler, European Greenfinch, Whooping Crane, Tooth-Billed Pigeon, Sociable Lapwing, Eskimo Curlew, Northern Bald Ibis, and Blue-Crowned Laughingthrush Miraculouses transformed into King Hornbill, Sky Wren, Imperial Parrot, Brush Dove, Night Pecker, Short Crescentbird, Wood Pochard, Lap Frigatebird, Parrot Eye, Wind Piper, Emerald Hummingwit, Red Cranecrown, Black Stiltwit, White Herontit, Wood Storkjay, Grey Kagu, Land Warbler, Masked Greenfinch, Bronze Crane, Silver Partridge, Golden Lapwing, Swift Curlew, Ibis Byrd, and Venus Thrushcrown.

In the streets of Paris, Pipevine and Jean Velvet meet up with the others.

Vesperia then asks, "Pipevine, do you sense the emotions of anyone who wants to help out?"

Pipevine concentrates and homes in on the feeling of helplessness from Middle School MHS Paris student Isaac Babington, an aspiring classic rock and roll guitarist who feels helpless because one Stoneheart clone severely wounded his surrogate aunt, who is a Parisian police officer, and there's a high chance she won't be able to walk again.

Jean Velvet then asks, "Would he willingly help us if we also gave him a Sentibeing?"

Pipevine answers, "I don't know. Only one way to find out."

Pipevine then creates a Tenshi, and she says, "Fly on, my little Tenshi, and empower the young heart of Isaac Babington. Empower him and turn his helplessness into something miraculous."

The Tenshi flies off to the hospital, and Jean Velvet plucks a feather from his war fan before clenching his fist over it, charging it with magic energy.

The feather comes out in blue-yellow and red-cyan with streaks of purple emanating glitter of green-magenta called a Compos Mentis and he says while sending it away, "Off you go, Compos Mentis. Find Isaac Babington and give him a Sentibeing to help him and to protect him."

In no time, the Tenshi and the Compos Mentis find Isaac in the bathroom on ground level and they merge with Isaac's folded sheet of paper expressing his love for his surrogate aunt.

The butterfly symbol similar to a combination of Hawk Moth's butterfly symbol, Shadow Moth's butterfly symbol, and Monarch's butterfly symbol in yellow-green, lilac, white, golden, blue-yellow, red-cyan, purple, and green-magenta appears over Isaac's face.

Pipevine then says, "Isaac, I am Pipevine accompanied by my partner Jean Velvet. I'll show you through imagery in your eyesight."

Pipevine does just that, and Isaac asks, "What do you both want?"

Pipevine answers, "We want to give you the power to not only heal your surrogate relative, but also the power to help our team fight Stoneheart and his army of clones."

Isaac replies, "Really?"

Jean Velvet replies, "Yes, really, my boy. And along with that, you will be given a sentient creature called a Sentibeing to protect you and to help you in this battle. All manner of Sentibeings can take on the forms of objects, animals, and humans. But remember, as long as the folded paper in your pocket remains undamaged, your transformation and your Sentibeing will remain intact. Your Sentibeing lives like an angel of Heaven or even a power source independent robot; able to do anything for long periods of time without needing to eat or sleep, and while able to forge memories of its own as long as it spends lots of time with you as long as it's alive. But remember, as long as you use your powers for good and as long as you command your Sentibeing to follow your orders as a hero, you can keep your powers and your Sentibeing, but if you screw up one too many times or if you disobey our orders one too many times or if you and your Sentibeing choose to become villains, your powers and companion will be revoked. Are we clear?"

Isaac answers, "Yes, perfectly clear."

Pipevine then says, "Good to hear. Now, Hardhead, you will be accompanied by an armored battlesuit humanoid Sentibeing named Gladiator Machine. He will help you out. He's gonna look like a combination of a knight in full metal armor and War Machine's Mark V battle suit, but don't worry about him firing bullets or running out of ammo; if you're not comfortable with Gladiator Machine firing bullets, you can always tell him to switch to energy ammunition, but do warn him not to switch to disintegration lasers; we need the Stoneheart army alive."

Isaac/Hardhead replies, "You got it, guys."

Isaac transforms into Hardhead, an armored knight inspired by a combination of a full 14th century knight armor and the suit of armor worn by X-O Commando from Valiant Comics.

At the same time, Gladiator Machine manifests, exactly as Pipevine described.

After healing his surrogate aunt, Hardhead and Gladiator Machine fly off to meet with Pipevine and the others.

But then, Pipevine says, "Jean, I got an idea."

Drawing upon the fact that thanks to Chloe's ingenuity and the fact that she made Pipevine's Butterfly Miraculous based on the one from the "2023 Miraculous Ladybug movie," Pipevine makes a second Tenshi after sensing the negative emotion of fear from Hartog Barbaroux, a retired French police officer who retired to spend more time with his kids and wife, but now he feels helpless knowing that even if he didn't retire, he'd be useless against Akumatized villains.

Pipevine makes the Tenshi fly towards Hartog.

The Tenshi merges with Hartog's service revolver, service taser pistol, and ID card in his wallet.

Pipevine explains the situation, and Hartog accepts Pipevine's mission, becoming Strongman.

Outside the school, Stoneheart is still holding Mylene and Sydney hostage.

Sydney snarls, "You have no idea who you're messing with. My boss, the Mayor of Paris, will bring in the police, the army, the entire cavalry!"

Gladiator Machine then asks rhetorically as he flies alongside Jean Velvet, "And what makes you think human gunpowder will be able to harm Stoneheart without making him grow bigger?"

Cat Noir adds, "I second that, newbie."

Pipevine and Hardhead show up and Hardhead says, "Hey, Gladiator Machine is my companion; show some respect, will ya?"

Ladybug, Strongman, and the rest of the Oracle Knights show up.

Ladybug then lassos Stoneheart's hands and he releases Mylene and Sydney.

Stoneheart snarls, "Ha! You wanted the cavalry? Well, here it is!"

Stoneheart's army of clones show up and Mylene shrieks, "Ah! No!"

The Stoneheart clones surround the heroes, and the Ladybugs lasso the Stoneheart clones in place.

But then, they swing their arms around and around, freeing their arms and tossing Ladybug and her siblings around until they get themselves under control in flight thanks to their wings.

King Hornbill, Sky Wren, Imperial Parrot, Brush Dove, Night Pecker, Short Crescentbird, Wood Pochard, Lap Frigatebird, Parrot Eye, Wind Piper, Emerald Hummingwit, Red Cranecrown, Black Stiltwit, White Herontit, Wood Storkjay, Grey Kagu, Land Warbler, Masked Greenfinch, Bronze Crane, Silver Partridge, Golden Lapwing, Swift Curlew, Ibis Byrd, and Venus Thrushcrown deploy metal feathers from their wings and they strike the Stoneheart clones, thankful that Ladybug's experiences in bestowing powers in just 24 hours in real time and 5 weeks in frozen time while keeping her age frozen to be unfrozen in accordance with the current day allowed her and her team to harm the Stoneheart clones and Stoneheart himself without making any of them grow, and especially thanks to the fact that the heroes started taking advantage of this because of Ladybug and Aviator notifying them through hand signals and telepathy. And along with the same applying to Cat Noir and the rest of their team perfecting their powers to the point where Ladybug can summon as many Lucky Charm objects as many times as she wants without dispelling previous Lucky Charm objects from existence and to the point where outside of the Canker Butterfly Miraculous, Pipevine can use the Tenshization/Kamikotization superpower of all other Butterfly Miraculouses – genuine, alternate universe, alternate timeline, etc. – to create an army of superheroes like Scarlet Moth without needing to be empowered, without running out of butterflies, and without any of the disadvantages Scarlet Moth had. And King Hornbill had also once compared it to the ways Hawk Moth in the 2023 Miraculous Ladybug movie was able to Akumatize himself without needing to detransform first and how he was able to Akumatize a small army of Akumatized criminals without needing to become Scarlet Moth or travel to Shanghai, China or New York City to actually recruit known criminals and real life supervillains like Techno-Pirate.

Stoneheart then says as he reclaims his prisoners, "Seize them!"

The heroes scatter and retreat, seeing hundreds of more Stoneheart clones coming.

The original Stoneheart then starts walking away and Mylene asks, "Ivan! Where are we going to?"

Stoneheart answers, "To deliver a message. And then we'll be brought together forever by a pretty black butterfly."

Sydney says in disgust, "Ugh, all this lovey-dovey stuff is making me want to puke."

Stoneheart replies, "Don't worry, little pukey monster, I'm gonna take care of you too."

Sydney cringes as she quietly whimpers.

Meanwhile, Alya is following the scene of the battle, where Aviator, Cat Noir, Ladybug, Vesperia, Pipevine, Hardhead, Jean Velvet, Gladiator Machine, and Strongman are fighting against some Stoneheart clones, and they appear to be doing nicely thanks to their enhanced supernatural skills, powers, and weaponry.

Alya hides next to a trash can and starts filming.

Cat Noir then says, "It's working, for now!"

Ladybug replies, "Yes, I know, but let's not get cocky, Cat Noir!"

A Stoneheart clone throws a car at Cat Noir, but he dodges it, and the car starts to fall towards Alya.

In a slow motion scenario, Ladybug takes advantage of her "Clark Time" power to pull Alya out of the way and the car lands on its tires.

A Stoneheart clone grabs Cat Noir, but he electrocutes the clone, making it let go as it falls unconscious.

Ladybug escorts Alya to a safe place and she says sternly, thankful for her voice modulator, "Now, I'm not gonna say this again: stop f(bleep!) following us just to get footage for your blog; the next few times this happens and if either of us aren't able to save you, you'll end up either an amputee, a double amputee, a paraplegic, a quadriplegic, or you'll end up killed. If you want to film our heroics for your blog, get yourself a drone."

Alya shakily nods before hugging Ladybug and saying, "Thank you so much, and I'm sorry!"

Ladybug returns the hug and says while looking Alya in the eyes, "Remember, even Nadia Chamack knows how to stay safe for her job. Follow the examples of reporters and other human protagonists like Nadia, Lois Lane, April O'Neil, Pepper Potts, Chloe Sullivan, James Olsen/Guardian, Smallville Lana Lang, Smallville Lois Lane, Smallville Tess Mercer, Casey Jones, the Justice Force from Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 2003, Agent Bishop, Mary Jane Watson, and so forth did by training themselves how to fight, training themselves to be alert for any incoming or future dangers, and always stay on the move to avoid being killed or dismembered."

Alya nods fiercely.

Ladybug takes flight back to the fight, and she takes Cat Noir's staff before following one of the Stoneheart clones that has him held captive.

Ladybug throws Cat Noir's staff and she shouts, "Cat Noir, extend it, fast!"

He does so, and he jumps out of the Stoneheart clone's hand to the ground.

Ladybug then strings her yoyo onto his right ankle and pulls him up with all her might to avoid a Stoneheart clone, and he hangs upside down from the rooftop Ladybug is standing atop of.

Ladybug says, "Sorry I couldn't help you sooner; had to take care of a loose end."

Cat Noir remarks jokingly, "M'lady, have I ever told you that you turn my world upside down?"

He winks at her.

Ladybug replies, "Again, your timing needs work, and I mean it."

Cat Noir groans as he replies back, "Ough. Okay, I admit it; my comedic timing does need work."

The Stoneheart clones start closing in, and the twosome fly off as Ladybug says, "We'll talk about this later, let's go!"

As the twosome flies to the Eiffel Tower, Cat Noir asks, "Same plan as the original timeline?"

Ladybug replies, "Affirmative!"

The other heroes manage to rendezvous with the twosome en route.

Meanwhile, Stoneheart stands on the mezzanine of the Eiffel Tower, with the police surrounding the monument.

Mayor Bourgeois says through a megaphone, "I demand my employee's safe return!"

Sydney cries out, "Sir!"

Stoneheart replies, "You know what? You're welcome to have her!"

Stoneheart grunts as he throws Sydney away.

Sydney screams as she gets thrown and Mayor Bourgeois screams in fright.

Sydney shrieks as she puts her hands together in desperate prayer and says in a motormouth fashion before abruptly saying as Ladybug catches her, "Help, I promise I'll be nice to everyone, say please and thank you, and – AH!"

But before Sydney can say "I didn't promise," Ladybug places her right hand over Sydney's mouth, and then she says, "Your prayer has been heard, and I'd strongly suggest you uphold your prayer if you want to avoid something like this from happening again, if you want to avoid punishment, and if you want to fully maintain any friendships you have today. No questions asked. Got it?"

Sydney replies through Ladybug's hand, "(Muffled) Mm-hm."

Ladybug then says, "You better not be lying, because if you are, I can't guarantee I'll save your ass again."

Sydney replies again, "(Muffled) Mm-hm."

Ladybug removes her hand and flies over to Mayor Bourgeois and over to Akil Bernot, the current French President.

Sydney says as she runs to Mayor Bourgeois and President Bernot, "Boss! Grandpa!"

The threesome hug each other.

Cat Noir asks Ladybug in confusion, "Grandpa?"

Ladybug explains, "His oldest daughter married Sydney's father and took her father's surname."

Cat Noir replies, "Oh."

Officer Raincomprix then says, "We're clear to attack!"

The police officers cock their taser pistols and their real guns.

Ladybug then demands, "Wait a minute! Are all of you out of your minds?! Any attack makes him grow bigger and stronger! My team and I are the only ones who know his weaknesses!"

Roger replies back, "I have a new plan, unlike you! Step aside and let the pros do their thing! You've already failed once!"

Ladybug roars as she flies towards Roger and hoists him up by his shirt in the air.

The police aim their guns at Ladybug, but the heroes pull out their magical weapons, and Pipevine says threateningly, "Nuh-uh-uh."

Ladybug then says while elongating her Wolverine claws threateningly, "Listen very carefully, officer. I have had seven years and six months to train for this, and alongside my teammates, I had to put my training on hold to stop Hawk Moth earlier than what should've been possible in time. If my superiors heard you now, you'd be in serious trouble. So, take your own s(bleep!) advice and let the real pros handle the Akumatized villains. And if you ever interfere, we'll be sure to pay Commissioner Richard Leeber a visit. Do I make myself clear?"

Roger replies shakily, "Y-yes, yes, crystal clear!"

Ladybug drops Roger on his butt a few meters off the ground and lands next to Cat Noir even as the rest of the team shows up.

Ladybug then says, "And this goes for every member of the Parisian Police Department: do not ever interfere with Oracle Knight superhero business; Akumatized villains who are unwillingly possessed by Hawk Moth are outside of your jurisdiction. If any of you interfere more than once, I can't guarantee we'll be there to pull you out of the crossfire, and I can guarantee that Commissioner Leeber will forcibly suspend or fire you."

The police officers grumble before begrudgingly nodding in understanding, knowing that Ladybug was dangerous for a superhero.

Stoneheart coughs violently eleven to twelve times, causing Ladybug to let out a small ladybug chirp at the first cough because she was startled – also causing people to laugh briefly at Ladybug – and on the final cough, he coughs up a swarm of Akuma butterflies that form a hologram of Hawk Moth's face.

Stoneheart falls flat on his back without making a hole in the Eiffel Tower's mezzanine.

Hawk Moth says through his butterfly hologram, "People of Paris, listen carefully. I am Hawk Moth."

The citizens of Paris gasp in shock and horror, but even Ladybug was secretly fuming in anger with occasional angry chittering.

You've done enough damage to these innocent people!"

Ladybug hysterically and scornfully laughs in response to that before saying a growling tone, "Nice try, Hawk Moth, but Cat Noir and I have been aware of you since before yesterday. Everyone now knows who the real villain of this real life superhero comic book is, and your attempts to frame us for your crimes aren't gonna work, even with forged evidence! Without you, the citizens of Paris will never be turned into terrifying monsters and until we find you, we'll be sure to return them to normal and send them to professional help as best as possible one at a time. Hawk Moth, I vow, no matter how long it takes, even if we have to use every asset at our disposal, we will find you, and when we do, you will either hand over the Butterfly Miraculous, the Peacock Miraculous, and the main Miraculous spellbook, or we'll take them from you by force if necessary, and as another alternative, we can always take them OVER YOUR CORPSE! And if you think you can get away with terrorizing us until you get what you want, think again, because Paris never negotiates with terrorists!"

Everyone gasps at Ladybug's roaring tone and the ultimatum of death she gave, along with her recounting that Paris took a vow to never negotiate with terrorists.

In his lair, Hawk Moth was also shocked that Ladybug would have the audacity and courage to threaten him with murder.

Ladybug and Cat Noir jump into the air and they say in unison, "Time to deakumatize!" "Time to deakumatize!"

Ladybug and Cat Noir use their yoyo and staff in nunchuck form to capture and purify all of the Akuma butterflies, making Hawk Moth shout in pain as he can somehow feel pain from the Akumas.

Everyone on ground level, including Aviator, look at the twosome in astonishment.

Ladybug then says, "Let us make this promise to all of you. No matter what happens, no matter who tries to harm you, no matter if we screw up in the final battle or not, no matter how long it takes us to apprehend Hawk Moth and any of his allies in the present day or in the future, we will all do everything in our power to keep you safe! For we are the Oracle Knights!"

Ladybug and Cat Noir open their weapons and a shipload of purified Akuma butterflies come out.

Everyone all across Paris cheers.

Cat Noir remarks, "Wow. I love you even more now."

Ladybug replies, "Let's hold off on any relationships until we permanently deal with you-know-who."

In Hawk Moth's lair, Hawk Moth snarls in disgust before saying to awaken Stoneheart, "Argh! That's the problem with superheroes! They're too... heroic! Stoneheart, the Oracle Knights are trying to take your loved one away from you. You must snatch their Miraculouses so that they will be powerless against you!"

Stoneheart awakens and replies, "Okay, Hawk Moth."

Stoneheart gets back up and the Oracle Knights fly up to where he is.

Mylene shrieks, "Help me!"

Stoneheart says, "You'll never be able to take Mylene away from me!"

Stoneheart jumps over a blockade beam, with the impact sending any Oracle Knight members standing on the mezzanine to the floor because of the intensity of the impact, and Stoneheart then jumps onto the Eiffel Tower's support beams and he says, "Come to me, my Stoneheart clones!"

Stoneheart starts climbing further up the tower and the Stoneheart clones climb up the tower to reach the heroes.

Cat Noir then says, "We're surrounded even with our numbers and our advantages! Ladybug, remember the plan?"

Ladybug replies, "Oh, yes."

Ladybug and Cat Noir fly to the top of the Eiffel Tower while the others help fend off the clones.

Mylene shouts, "Help! I'm scared of heights!"

Ladybug replies before saying, "Hold on! Everything'll be alright!"

Stoneheart roars, blowing back some police helicopters by a few inches.

Ladybug says while tossing her yoyo in the air, "Lucky Charm!"

Ladybug's Lucky Charm summons a parachute.

Ladybug catches it.

Remembering what she did in the original timeline, Ladybug lassos Stoneheart's right hand, and she calls out, "Cat Noir, get ready!"

Ladybug starts pulling on Stoneheart's lassoed hand and Mylene kisses Stoneheart.

Stoneheart lets go of Mylene, and she grabs onto his finger.

Cat Noir jumps down to fly after the Akumatized wad of paper as it falls from the top of the Eiffel Tower, grabs the Akumatized paper and swiftly hits it up with his staff, and Ladybug catches it.

Ladybug remarks before saying, "Home run! Hardhead, Gladiator Machine, grab them, quickly!"

Ladybug breaks the paper, and the Akuma emerges.

Stoneheart turns back into Ivan, and the Tenshized hero along with his Composed companion grab Ivan and Mylene.

Ladybug then says while opening her yoyo, "Time to deakumatize!" and she catches the Akuma.

Ladybug releases the purified butterfly and says while tossing her parachute into the air, "Miraculous Ladybug!"

The energy of the Lucky Charm turns everything back to normal, repairing all damages, healing anyone wounded, healing anyone fatally wounded while resuscitating them, and turning the Stoneheart clones back to normal.

Ladybug joins the others on the ground and Cat Noir remarks to lead the public astray, "Beautiful, isn't it?"

Ladybug replies, "Yes. It's miraculous! Hahahahahahahahahaha!"

In Hawk Moth's lair, Hawk Moth snarls, "This is just the beginning, Oracle Knights! You may have won this second battle, but I will win the war. I will get your Miraculouses. I will get the absolute power I need! And then my secret dream will come true!"

Back at the Eiffel Tower, Ladybug then says while giving the paper to Mylene, "I think you two have things to talk about, and it would be better if you read the lyrics to Ivan's song."

Mylene reads the lyrics and says, "Wow, it's really beautiful. It's a shame I didn't get to hear you sing."

Ivan replies, "Our friend Marinette told me to practice. And she told me that hard rock and roll isn't the appropriate genre for a love song. And also, I understand that you were rushing to class because you were in the bathroom, but I still got upset because I thought you were saying you loved me out of a hurrying kind of thing."

Mylene says, "Oh, Ivan..." and she proceeds to hug Ivan.

Ladybug remarks, "Oh, they're so made for each other."

Cat Noir remarks, "Like the two of us."

Ladybug replies, "Yes, but let's hold off on doing anything romantic until we get the two Miraculouses and the grimoire back from Hawk Moth."

Cat Noir sighs as he replies back, "I understand. And this time, I mean it."

Ladybug replies back, "No more secrets or miscommunications, right?"

Cat Noir replies back, "Yep."

Ladybug and Cat Noir hug each other before flying with the rest of the team.

With Pipevine and Jean Velvet, they thanked Hardhead and Strongman for their services and after returning them to normal, Pipevine and Jean Velvet allowed Isaac to keep Gladiator Machine as his adoptive brother Wallace Saalfeld.

Outside the school later on, Marinette and Alya are walking to the school.

Alya says, "So, by the time I got to the Eiffel Tower on my bike, it was already all over. I'm way bummed."

Marinette replies, "Well, on the bright side, Ladybug gave you some helpful advice to keep you safe. And don't worry, you'll get your scoop somehow."

Alya replies, "You're right. Next target: Ladybug, an exclusive interview!"

Marinette remarks, "Wow, exciting."

Alya replies, "Oh, wait! Even better: finding out who's really under that helmet."

Marinette whirls around with a scowl on her face, making Alya ask nervously, "W-w-was it something I sad?"

Marinette says, "You shouldn't ever attempt to uncover a superhero's secret identity, especially including Ladybug's identity! Don't you realize that Hawk Moth would easily kidnap Ladybug's friends and family as members of her army, in civilian or superhero forms, to force her, Cat Noir, and their Oracle Knight army to surrender their Miraculouses and then kill them all to prevent them from stopping him and potentially using them in unison to give himself the powers he needs to kill whatever armies of superhero friends or even clones that they may or may not have?!"

Alya replies, "Oh, man, I forgot why superheroes keep their identities a secret, even before we learned about the Miraculouses, the kwamis, and the Order of the Guardians! I'm really sorry, girl!"

Marinette remarks, "Remember that the next time you try to uncover Ladybug's identity, and remember what happens when superheroes expose their identities to the world, such as Iron Man. And by the way, even if you hadn't wanted to find out Ladybug's identity in private and keep it to yourself, it'd be a bad idea."

Alya inquires, "Why?"

Marinette answers as she asks back in response, "Why do you want to know Ladybug's identity so bad?"

Alya answers in an asking manner, "So I can thank Ladybug for her services and put it on my blog?"

Marinette explains, "If you posted on the Oracle Knight Blog who Ladybug really is, the next day, you would wake up to a news headline that reads about Ladybug, her parents, and her friends in the roster of the Oracle Knights in their civilian forms being murdered in cold blood while being stripped of their Miraculouses, while cutting off any chances of escaping or calling for reinforcements, and while making sure that they're asleep, as any murder victim who's asleep and the killer happens to be proficient enough to kill their victims quietly without raising an alarm or alerting anyone nearby would do such things. But only if they were as skilled as a ninja or a mercenary."

Alya pales a bit as she questions, "What? How?"

Marinette answers, "It's simple: starting today, Hawk Moth in all likelihood would follow your blog extensively from the shadows in order to find out about any forms of information about Ladybug and her team to exploit and weaponize. Think about it and think about it thoroughly; if Hawk Moth knew who Ladybug was, he'd kill her and her parents, along with any other secret relatives, without hesitation. The primary reason most heroes wear masks is not because their faces are hideous, with the exception of Walter Joseph Kovacs aka Rorschach; it's because they want to protect their families and their friends from potentially fatal supervillain and criminal attacks. It's also the primary reason why apprehended criminals or even criminals whose crimes make the news while they're on the loose are never named by their family names on the news: protecting friends and family from any form of provoked retaliation. Think about that thoroughly the next time you attempt anything foolish to discover Ladybug's true identity."

Marinette marches up the steps of the school entrance.

Alya then follows Marinette.

Alya then asks, "By the way, did you hear that Ladybug can actually chirp and chitter like an actual ladybug beetle?"

Marinette gives off her best shocked look and asks, "No way! Really?"

Alya replies, "Yes, and the first time Ladybug chirped in fear, everyone laughed."

Marinette mentally says, "Yeah, and I ain't gonna forgive those laughers for laughing at me in my brief moment of fear."

Meanwhile, in the Agreste car, Gabriel is talking to Adrien on video.

Gabriel says, "You disobeyed me again, Adrien. Take a good look at that school."

Adrien replies as he feels down, "Yes, Father."

Gabriel says, "You will never, I repeat, never go back there again..."

Adrien replies, "Father, no..."

Gabriel finishes like he wasn't interrupted, "Without your bodyguard. He will drop you off and pick you up every day. Nathalie has offered to organize for you a new schedule. You'll be continuing your music, Chinese, and fencing classes along with your photoshoots."

Adrien replies, "Thank you, Nathalie! Thank you, Father!"

Adrien leaves the car.

In Ms. Bustier's classroom, Chloe and Sabrina have finished discussing what to do about the Akumas, and they decided to make plans for an Akuma Alert App with Max's help and with help from Mayor Bourgeois and from different tech companies in the city while making a mix between the guidelines for safe houses and bomb shelters among other things.

The exact words between Chloe and Sabrina was the same as King Hornbill's group anticipated with only one interruption from Adrien.

Chloe asks, "Okay. So, first off, what do we know about these so-called Akumas?"

Sabrina answers before starting to ask, "We know so far that they are white butterflies when not used but when Hawk Moth infuses them with dark magic, they are black with purple streaks on their wings. And the Akumatized supervillains are unwilling victims who are either mind controlled or physically, emotionally, and telepathically controlled by Hawk Moth as long as they experience negative emotions like anger, sadness, jealousy, frustration, guilt, grief, grumpiness, and depression long enough and hard enough to attract the energized butterflies and as long as the energized butterflies are able to possess anything on the victims' persons, even if it's a piece of clothing. His ultimate plan is to '"Akumatize"' people to terrorize the city to force Ladybug and her army to surrender their magical jewelry called Miraculouses. Based on Ladybug's press conference and based on Hawk Moth's message to the city, we can assume that these Miraculouses are what give the heroes and Hawk Moth their powers. So, what exactly can we do – ?"

But Adrien states loudly as he struts into the room dog-like, interrupting Sabrina, "I can finally go to school with my father's support and approval!"

Chloe knew that Adrien mainly said that because it wasn't time to reveal everything to Sabrina just yet, but she still hated being interrupted.

Chloe replies sharply, "Good to hear. Now, don't interrupt us again, or else I'll knee you hard in your chaps."

Adrien looks sheepish as he goes to Nino, who looks surprised at Chloe's threat and her choice of words.

Sabrina then questions without interruption this time, "So, what are we going to do in order to help out the city and the heroes?"

Chloe answers before saying, "Okay, so, first things first, we need an alert system to notify people in the city about Akuma attacks happening. Something called an Akuma Alert App or something similar. Please remind me to ask Max about it when I get the chance."

Sabrina replies, "Gotcha."

Chloe continues, "Next to that, we have to invent Akuma Shelters, or at least find places in the city to enlist as safe places for people to conceal themselves in during an Akuma attack. We'll also have to invent guidelines for it by combining guidelines for safe houses with the guidelines for bomb shelters."

Sabrina replies, "Got it."

Chloe and Sabrina continued talking until the rest of their classmates came into the classroom.

But Chloe and Marinette knew that Alya would start suspecting Chloe of being Ladybug all over again, even for an entirely different reason in this timeline.

Adrien enters the classroom and he waves at Marinette.

Marinette nods back at Adrien.

Later, outside the school, it's raining.

Marinette says while taking out her umbrella and putting on the hood for her rain poncho, "Good thing I came prepared this time."

Adrien says, "Hey."

Marinette turns around and sees Adrien there even as he opens his umbrella.

Adrien then says, "I know we probably can't date until either my father gives up being Hawk Moth after Style Queen or until we apprehend him along with Nathalie, Lila, and Alexander on Heroes' Day next year, but should we?"

Marinette and Adrien share their first kiss in the new timeline in the rain, thankful that they're protected by their umbrellas and ponchos.

In the rain, Chloe secretly takes a picture of the new Rain Scene and sends it to Felix with the caption, "Potential New Couple?" before leaving before she could get spotted.

Marinette says, "I love you, alley cat."

Adrien replies, "I love you too, Bugaboo."

Tikki and Plagg then ask in unison as they discreetly show themselves, "Wait, you know each other's identities?" "Wait, you know each other's identities?"

Marinette answers, "An identity rule between the two of us in the original timeline caused problems like Cat Blanc, Ephemeral, and the debates, arguments, and arrest warrants during the fallout of Hawk Moth's identity being revealed days after his final victory. Never again. No more identity rules. But we won't date each other just yet, not while the current Hawk Moth is active. And as long as all two hundred and seventy-nine members of our team know each other's identities, we can easily help better prevent situations similar to Cat Blanc, Ephemeral, and the Monarch Fallout from happening again."

Tikki and Plagg reluctantly sigh at this, knowing that thanks to their own memories, Marinette and Adrien in particular had to make a judgement call, one so thoroughly calculated as to better plan out for any possible variables ranging from fifteen to fifty-five or more.

Tikki then says, "Well, as long as nobody else knows, I'm sure we can try to make a big workaround."

Tikki and Plagg go back into Adrien's overshirt and Marinette's purse.

After looking to see his bodyguard's car arriving, Adrien then says, "See you tomorrow."

Adrien walks to his bodyguard's car.

Marinette replies, "See you tomorrow."

Marinette walks home.

Adrien enters his bodyguard's car and goes home.

Master Fu is watching them at the pole next to the school entrance under his own umbrella.

Wayzz says, "Excellent choices, Master."

Master Fu rubs his goatee and replies, "Even though I did not anticipate for all of them to know each other's identities, those two in particular are made for each other. And this time, they will not screw up everything again, based on our own new memories of the timelines."

Master Fu and Wayzz then head home.

In her bedroom, Marinette says, "Tomorrow, Aviator has got some explaining to do."

Tikki asks, "You mean about the four sets of memories in our brains and in Adrien and Plagg's brains that contain information about the original timeline, the current timeline, the original timeline if Lila as Chrysalis didn't find out who you were and thus didn't kill you, and the current timeline if Hawk Moth gives up during the aftermath of Style Queen without Queen Bee revealing her identity to the world?"

Marinette replies, "Exactly. And especially with the armies of clones we can create like with the Mouse Miraculous but without any side effects and without becoming as small as insects."

Marinette goes to sleep, and her new dreamland opens its heart to her.

The next day, just two hours before dawn, Ladybug and Cat Noir were on a rooftop eating some breakfast from the Dupain-Cheng bakery.

After finishing their pancakes, French toast, waffles, sliced fruit, turkey bacon, scrambled eggs, Greek yogurt, blueberry steel-cut oatmeal with additional protein powder, whole grain toast with peanut butter, jelly, and bananas, spinach and mushroom omelettes, and overnight oats with chia seeds, Cat Noir then asks, "You know what I'm thinking, LB?"

Ladybug asks back in response, "What are you thinking, Pussycat?"

Cat Noir then answers, "I'm thinking that you can punch faster."

Ladybug replies, "Really? Interesting."

After waiting until Cat Noir isn't looking, Ladybug tries to punch Cat Noir's armored face as fast as a Kung-Fu master, but he catches her fist.

Ladybug remarks, "Wow, just when I thought I was the only one with super speed."

After making sure Ladybug isn't looking, Cat Noir tries to swiftly kick Ladybug in the face, and Ladybug dodges it as she remarks, "Oh, that's the way it's gonna be? Well, two can play that game!"

In no time, Ladybug and Cat Noir began sparring, and their sparring lasted for a half hour because Ladybug and Cat Noir chose to set a time limit for a half hour of sparring, and they used the same moves that the White Ranger Tommy Oliver used against his original evil Green Ranger counterpart from the past, but because Ladybug and Cat Noir knew each other's moves, it'd be a rare miracle for one or the other to overpower their opponent if in the event they get mind controlled by an Akumatized villain or if in the event one of them ever got Akumatized themselves, either as Cat Blanc, Ephemeral, Anti Cat, Princess Justice, Unmasker, or Panic.

At the same time, they also used the same moves that Ip Man and Sergeant Geddes used in their fight, the same moves that Ip Man and General Miura used in their fight, the same moves that Ip Man and the Thai Boxer used in their fight, and the same moves that Wonder Woman uses in her fights particularly in both the live action and animated movies and cartoons centered on the Amazonian Princess of Themyscira and centered on her role in the Justice League.

Cat Noir remarks, "Let's see if you can stop this!"

Ladybug asks once, "You really call that a punch?"

Cat Noir answers, "No, more like a light scratch."

Ladybug retorts, "Be careful not to break a claw."

Cat Noir retorts back, "Would that bug you?"

Ladybug demands, "How do you always find ways to annoy me?"

Cat Noir replies, "I only annoy you to get a reaction out of you."

But then, midway into the fight, Cat Noir gently grazed Ladybug's wings, and she shrieked a bit, feeling for the first time that even her wings as Ladybug were ticklish.

Cat Noir then asks with a smirk, "You're not ticklish, are you, Ladybug?"

Ladybug replies in a stuttering protest, "N-no, no, I-I'm not!"

Cat Noir then pounces on Ladybug, using his belt tail to keep Ladybug's hands pinned over her head, and he went to town on her armpits, her ribs, her stomach, her sides, her thighs, and her feet, especially because Ladybug's armor pieces were easy to remove as long as they're being removed by either Ladybug herself, by Cat Noir, or by fellow heroic Miraculous users.

As soon as Cat Noir began tickling Ladybug's feet, she quietly scream-laughed a lot because her feet were the most extreme ticklish part of her body and also because it was before dawn in the morning and she didn't want to wake up anybody.

But Cat Noir had to admit to himself in private that Ladybug's feet were pretty for a French-Italian-Chinese girl. Aside from the red nail polish with a dash of dark indigo, her feet didn't have any callouses whatsoever, no signs of scarring, no signs of being dirty, and they looked a tad muscular.

As soon as Cat Noir had his fun, Ladybug was given a massive breather.

As soon as Ladybug was finished with her breather, Cat Noir then says, "I gotta admit, LB, your feet are so cute."

Ladybug then asks, "Next, you gonna tell me that for the first time ever, you have a foot fetish when it comes to girls at our age?"

Cat Noir replies, "Nah, mostly when it comes to your feet, Ladybug."

Cat Noir kisses the top of Ladybug's right foot, and Ladybug exclaims, "Cat! You shouldn't've done that! You don't know where my feet have been!"

Cat Noir looks mischievously sheepish before dragging his claws along Ladybug's insoles, making her squeal again.

Ladybug says with a whimper, "Cat Noir, I'm begging you, please don't tickle my feet anymore."

Cat Noir mischievously waves his clawed fingers at Ladybug's toes, and she whimpers a bit.

Just then, Aviator clears her throat.

Cat Noir lets go of Ladybug and she puts her armor back on.

Aviator then proceeds to explain the reason behind the memory downloading, much to Ladybug and Cat Noir's shared shock.

And after reviewing the info about Chloe's descension into villainy and tyranny before being exiled from Paris and the other timeline where she went on to become Silver Feather with the stolen Raven Miraculous, Ladybug asks, "And my counterpart didn't try harder with convincing you to change for the better before Hawk Moth got to you?"

Aviator answers, "Along with the fact that my past self had no desire to change whatsoever, outside of the proper motivation being a Reason You Suck Speech as well as a lecture about how even the actions of a rich child of a famous politician have consequences."

King Hornbill adds, "Along with the fact that as long as Thomas Astruc was in charge of the show of your lives throughout seasons one, two, three, four, and five, nothing horrible about the toxic status quos of your universe or your private sector of the Quantic Multiverse were gonna change permanently."

Sky Wren adds, "As well as the fact that he had portrayed Chloe's final punishments the way he did as a power trip and as a way of spite against one of his old high school bullies."

Cat Noir growls at this.

Aviator then says, "Growl all you want, but at the end of the day, Thomas Astruc doesn't listen when even his boss Jeremy Zag tells him to stop doing the bad things about the show of our lives just because he thinks he can do whatever he wants with directing our lives without punishment and get away with it."

King Hornbill adds, "And because of this, Thomas himself garnered just as much enemies as much as he garnered fans."

Sky Wren adds, "And also because of this, by the time season six was released, only two twelfths of Miraculous Ladybug viewers wanted to watch the show all the way to the season twelve finale."

Imperial Parrot adds as well, "Along with the fact that as long as Thomas Astruc was in charge, you both wouldn't be able to date each other in public or even in private as long as Gabriel was Hawk Moth. And even if you dated in private, he'd still have Nathalie or Lila or someone else entirely feeding him intel, as well as the possibility of him overhearing you both calling each other by your pet names while in civilian form like in the Ephemeral timeline, and there's no guarantees that he wouldn't try the same blackmail for Akumatization method he used in the Cat Blanc timeline if he didn't Akumatize Adrien into Ephemeral first and if he didn't find out Adrien and Marinette's identities from overhearing the both of you calling each other by your superhero pet names in civilian form."

Brush Dove adds as well, "In addition to the fact that as long as Thomas Astruc was in charge, specific kinds of things can go wrong depending on how smart or how idiotic some of you guys really are."

Ladybug, Cat Noir, and Aviator looked minorly offended at that, even though they knew their new interdimensional friends were right.

Night Pecker adds as well, "In addition to that, there was also the fact that as long as Thomas Astruc was in charge, it wouldn't be until Re-Creation: The Last Day Part 2 that he would screw us over one more time by having Gabriel emerge victorious in the final battle, and that Marinette's counterpart would fulfill his dying wish to keep his crimes as Hawk Moth, The Collector, Scarlet Moth, Shadow Moth, Monarch, Monarchbug, and Nightormentor a secret. And even though Chloe Paye was the new screenwriter, Lila still managed to have all of Gabriel's secrets and Marinette's actions exposed to the public, and that caused five weeks and thirty-five days of non-stop arguments, fights, debates, and petitions to have Ladybug arrested for obstructing justice and abetting a dead terrorist."

Ladybug looked horrified at the prospect of what could've happened as far as she remembered.

Short Crescentbird adds as well, "Alongside that, as long as Thomas Astruc was in charge, Lila's future as the second Hawk Moth as Chrysalis was gonna happen nevertheless."

Wood Pochard adds also, "And next to that, Thomas Astruc was a weak, pathetic, take no criticism, give no spoiler alert, immature, grudge holding, hypocritical, full of excuses, no good, lying b***** of a man-child."

Lap Frigatebird adds as well, "And in addition to that, as long as Thomas Astruc was in charge, even the United Heroez and Lady Dragon would only get involved in matters with Hawk Moth as long as his plans for the Prodigious, the Eagle Miraculous, and the Operation: Perfect Alliance plan between him and Tomoe Tsurugi were happening uninterrupted, even at first."

Parrot Eye adds further, "Furthermore, as long as Thomas Astruc was in charge, nobody would be able to find out about Gabriel's crimes as long as Lila was planning to wait for the right time to release the information and use it as blackmail, even if she made herself appear to be a new superhero in public at first despite partially knowing that even Ladybug wouldn't fall for it a second time no matter how many times Marinette as Ladybug fell for Lila's lies despite knowing that Lila was a liar."

Wind Piper adds further, "Forevermore, when Lila killed Marinette, people found out about Marinette's obsession with Adrien, Chloe's former alliances with Lila and Hawk Moth, Hawk Moth's true identity, Marinette covering up Monarch's crimes, Adrien, Felix, and Kagami being Sentimonsters, Tomoe Tsurugi's crimes, Amelie Graham de Vanily's actions regarding Felix's crimes before his wake up call, and everything wrong with the timeline with and without the Miraculouses being a real thing in your universe."

Emerald Hummingwit adds further as well, "Next-to-last, Master Fu was considered to be one of the worst mentors in superhero fiction, mainly because he let you and Cat Noir fend for yourselves until The Collector and Syren, he didn't tell you about the rules of the Guardians even if you asked, he didn't teach you about Mirakung-Fu, he permitted you two to keep the identity rule until Hawk Moth was defeated, he didn't even use the Rooster Miraculous' Sublimation to will new Miraculouses into existence, he didn't even use the Rooster Miraculous' Sublimation to override the rules about the Miraculous concepts being a one time only thing for even clones of the Miraculouses – even though I'm already pretty sure that it wouldn't partially work, and most of all, he selectively favored Ladybug and acted sexist when it came to her and Cat Noir."

Black Stiltwit then says as she reveals, "And next to that, and this was something we didn't discover until 2023 in our world, but it turns out that Thomas Astruc sees Marinette as his own daughter despite the fact that Marinette's actual father is Tom Dupain, and Thomas named Marinette's mother Sabine after his ex-girlfriend, thereby making another sign that Thomas Astruc really is a man-child who never lets go of the past."

Ladybug and Cat Noir exclaim in unified shock and anger, "What?!" "What?!"

Black Stiltwit says, "Yeah, it's true; nobody among the masses of Miraculous Ladybug fans, viewers, critics, fanfiction writers, and so forth saw it coming."

And lastly, Red Cranecrown concluded, "And lastly on the first file of details, Adrien Agreste was most hated by fans ever since the Chameleon episode when he convinced Marinette Dupain-Cheng to take the high road with Lila's lies, especially without giving Marinette a chance to explain why exposing Lila has to happen sooner rather than later, and especially with Marinette's obsessive love for Adrien on a pedestal interfering with her normal sense of right and wrong on liars to the point where she chose not to speak up."

And within the next half hour, the twenty-four additional new heroes gave their own testimonies about the different things people wrote fanfictions about, other than just additional Miraculous users, additional Akumatized villains, and so forth. And along with giving their testimonies about the bad things about Miraculous Ladybug which happened all the way until the season 12 finale which also served as the series finale in the year 2040.

Ladybug then grabs Cat Noir and Aviator into a group hug and she says, "Nevertheless, in this timeline to spawn many others in the greater Multiverse, I'm glad to have you both in my life."

Cat Noir and Aviator hug Ladybug back.

In no time, over two hundred and seventy-nine friendships in all directions were born.

In no time, the heroes agreed on which rules from the original timelines to keep intact and which ones should be changed to prevent the problems from the original timelines from happening ever again.

In no time, the heroes agreed that during the respective Princess Fragrance, Volpina, and The Collector incidents and even after the incidents, they'll talk with Master Fu about their rules and about the original timelines, and they'll ensure Master Fu is on board with their plans for Heroes' Day and their plans to not only fix the Peacock Miraculous, but also to revive Emilie Agreste, recruit her along with her sister and her Sentimonster nephew, and reawaken the Feast Sentimonster long enough to destroy it from the inside and use the Miraculous Ladybug cure to restore everything that the monster devoured over the course of one hundred and seventy-two years, including the temple and members of the Order of the Guardians. And then after that, they agreed on how they should debate with the Guardians about which of their Perfect Precepts to change and which ones to leave unchanged.

Also in no time, they also decided to prepare speeches and actions and contingency plans to practice so that they'll be prepared for any explanations they have to give to any Guardian other than Grandmaster Su-Han if he doesn't come to Paris alone, as well as plans to convince the Guardians to change their rules a bit in order to establish better working relationships and better working bonds with both kwamis and their recruits who stay in the ranks of the Guardians for hundreds of years. And as well as the actions to take in case Grandmaster Su-Han and/or any other Guardians turn out hostile or try to take the Miraculouses back by force. And as well as the contingency plans being for just in case any corrupt Guardians – the ones that the twenty-four recruits explained were relevant to specific ultimate Miraculous Ladybug canon rewrite, canon divergence, alternate universe, and episode fix-it fanfictions from the Quadwal cluster – tries to steal their Miraculouses to uphold the minor to moderate to extreme archaic Perfect Precepts or any other Guardian rules that they're against changing partially because of Grandmaster Su-Han's leadership, partially because of Grandmaster Su-Han's extensive over-reliance on Mirakung-Fu, partially because of Grandmaster Su-Han practicing physical discipline/physical abuse for even children recruits, and partially because of other causes.

And also in no time, they agreed to make sure that training and patrol schedules were set in place for anything they knew would happen in between school, photoshoots, and family time with and without help from their armies of clones.

In her room, Marinette looks over the list and sees the next name on the list: Aurore Beauréal, aka Stormy Weather.

Marinette remarks, "Well, might as well start the weather party with a bang."

The End.

(Omake: Ladybug passes away. October 21st, 2106, third person POV...)

The one hundred and five year old former Guardian and former Ladybug Miraculous wielder Marinette Dupain-Cheng-Agreste was lying in bed surrounded by her children, her grandchildren, and her great grandchildren.

Hugo Agreste says to conclude the tale, "And that's basically your life in four alternate timelines, Mom."

Marinette smiles weakly before saying, "I want you all to know, our world across the Multiverse may change and evolve with and without Bible prophecy coming to life, but the one thing that won't change in our universe is that we are part of one universe that moves ever upward and onward to greater glory. Remember, Hugo, even when you suffered almost the same way I suffered because of Lila Rossi, you found hope in the darkest of times. Emma, even when you found problems in a love square similar to me and your father, you still found love. Milo, even when you found yourself struggling with school, you still managed to persevere to your college graduation. Otis, even when you found yourself having problems with being accepted for who you are, you still found support in your true friends and your family. Sophie, even when you found out that you had powers, you still found acceptance in who you are and why you were born with superpowers. Lucy, even when you were cynical like my counterpart Shadybug, in the darkness of cynicism, you found faith, just like I found faith when I was going to college. Ava, when you found yourself struggling with being unable to conquer the exact same problems that your cousin Felix was suffering in his youth which transferred to you, you found peace within yourself when you managed to overcome your domestic problems. All of you have managed to find solutions to the same problems that the people in my life and myself had difficulty dealing with, and found the answers to dealing with those problems that some of us, myself included, never managed to find or put into practice. But remember, everyone everywhere has always been and always will be part of one gigantic family in God's kingdom, regardless of their gender, religious belief, or skin color, but the things we don't have room for are hatred, intolerance, racism, and bigotry. Remember, anyone can be a hero, but it doesn't always have to involve having superpowers or gadgets, and it doesn't always have to involve having a uniform or a cool name, and it doesn't always have to involve hiding your face behind a mask, a helmet, or a cloak unless you're absolutely sure about keeping your identities a secret. And remember, to be a hero doesn't mean having no weaknesses, but overcoming them to help others who need help. With great power must also come great responsibility. (Weakly) Let it... be known... that... you are... my... family... and... I love... you... all."

Marinette's eyes closed as she took her final breath, and almost immediately, her family came together to grieve over her passing.

When their friends and other relatives were notified about Marinette's death, they wept hard and came together on the day of her funeral to say goodbye and to finish telling the tale of the Miraculous Ladybug who inspired everyone to love one another and to forgive each other for every small slight.

After the funeral, Hugo lays a bouquet of his mother's favorite flowers in front of Marinette's headstone which reads, "Here Lies: Marinette Dupain-Cheng-Agreste, also known as Ladybug, Aquabug, Lady Ice, Cosmo Bug, Firebug, Lady Noire, Multimouse, Multifox, Multibug, Multinoir, Dragon Bug, Lady Bee, Pegabug, Pennybug, Ladyfly, and Ladybiquity. Loving mother, wife, daughter, granddaughter, grandniece, grandmother, great grandmother, and ultimate superhero who saved the world, the universe, and the multiverse numerous times. July 9th, 2001 – October 21st, 2106. Rest In Peace."

As soon as Hugo left, Marinette's spirit and Adrien's spirit embraced with a hug and kiss.

Adrien and Marinette then look over at their children, grandchildren, and great grandchildren leaving before whispering, "Goodbye, kids." "Goodbye, kids."

(Author's notes: In the next chapter, the heroes will encounter Stormy Weather, but will Pipevine be able to come up with a Calm Skies opposite of Stormy Weather in time, or will the heroes manage to get by just fine? Or, if in the event Chloe and King Hornbill's troops chose to include some of the rules for the original Butterfly Miraculous and for their armies of Miraculouses with the rules from the Miraculous Ladybug movie, what will we see? Dun dun duh!

Also, yes, this bonus scene is my own take of what could possibly happen in the far future of my story. And I have to say, when I got to the part about Marinette passing, I almost cried myself.

Also, I know that the names of the OC kwamis and the transformation phrases aren't one hundred percent that good, but please understand that even for an amount of OC kwamis and Miraculous jewel transformation phrases, this is indeed my first rodeo.

Lastly, in this particular order, some episode chapters of this story will have either something like Tungstenheart vs. Stoneheart or something like the title of this chapter Hardhead and Strongman, and the reason why is because, due to Chloe and Marinette changing some of the rules of their native timeline, there's liable to be more than one Tenshized/Kamikotized superhero champion fighting an Akumatized villain of the week. Sadly, like Watt Pad, Archive Of Our Own, and Web Novel among others, fanfiction dot net has a strict limit over how many words can fit in a single fanfiction chapter title. Because of this, the titles like the examples I gave you will stay the way they are to avoid complications and confusion over what the titles for each posted chapter is supposed to say. I don't like this anymore than any of you do, but – for the time being anyway – my stories will stay on fanfiction dot net until I have had more time to navigate Watt Pad and Archive Of Our Own manually.

See you all in chapter 10: Calm Skies and Warm Weather)
