I don't own the song Favorite Daydream by Shibuya Sunrise.


A week went by for the no-longer-lost civilization to adapt to the new world, especially helping fish boats and tourists discover. But of course, the trident of Poseidon keeps people with bad deeds away from ever using this power for chaos to wipe out humanity.

In Paris, two new wax statues along with Eagle and Ladydragon have been opened. They call this exhibit the World Heroes. The Hispanic young adult was uncomfortable with being the popular heroine from her country due to autographs and fans getting pictures with her and asking questions.

"Heh, well, they did get her pose right. I can't believe they really got the details just right" Luna was impressed but still uncomfortable about it but she knows how much it means to those who admire her.

The Swedish guy's family was invited by their son to see the exhibition as well. Pelle's little sister Elsa was thrilled to see her brother's alter ego's statue.

"It looks exactly like him!" Elsa said.

"Yes, little sister. It does" Pelle said.

Even Luna's older brother was proud of her little sister coming a long way from her loneliness to her confidence building up.

"I gotta hand it to you, little sis. She came a long way to hunt" Elio smirked.

"Gracias, big bro. I hope someday she and her elephant man are more than just world heroes" Luna said.

"Like what? They aren't a couple" Elio said.

This made Pelle and Luna blush if everyone thinks that will ever happen.

"Uhhhh…..well…sometimes every hero has a responsibility without having their loved ones become the targets. Life is not like from hero movies" Luna shyly said.

"Yeah…..totally agreed" Pelle almost became pale, "But to the fans, they think they are a couple the same way with Ladynoir fans"

"Yeah, but they are just friends" Luna replied.

"Son, you are special like him. Whatever path you choose, he will guide you like the elephant herd" Pelle's father said.

"Min lilla pojke har blivit utvald att vägleda elefanter på sin resa" His mother said with love.

"Tack Mamma" Pelle smiled.

"My brother is my hero!" Elsa hugs him.

"Heh, and you are my cute little ballet princess" Pelle tickled her.

"Hehehehehe! Stop!" Elsa giggled.

Adrien and Marinette watched nearby, "What an adventure we had, Adrien," Marinette said.

"Indeed, my love. I still can't believe we've been both oblivious this whole time. Like a love-square" Adrien chuckled.

"But now we don't have to choose. Pelle was right, secrets can sometimes lead to disasters but as long as there's trust and love, we don't have to be alone" Marinette said.

"Yeah. The bad news is Chrysalis is on the loose" Adrien said.

"We'll get her next time. Bunnix from the future always says there will come a moment" Marinette said.

"Until then we stay strong," Adrien said.

"Yeah," Marinette said.

"Hola. You must be Adrien Agreste" Elio walks up to him, "My sister told me you used to be a model. If it's not too much, can I get an autograph?" Elio asked with the 2015 magazine cover of him.

Adrien hesitated a little that he doesn't like signing autographs.

"Slow down, big bro. Forgive him, he enjoyed your amazing modeling cover magazines and I know you don't model anymore. Please?" Luna asked politely.

"Well…..Okay. My last moment in signing autographs won't hurt" Adrien insisted as he signed his name on the magazine cover.

"Gracias, señor" Elio left with the signed autograph.

"Heh, thanks. I know you told me you don't like signing autographs but this means a lot to my brother. He never got autographs from any famous celebrities. Especially not from Frida Kahlo who was deceased a very long time ago" Luna explained.

"I understand" Adrien replied.

"Pelle and I can't wait to meet you guys on the houseboat this afternoon. You inspire me so much in finding solutions to the problem, chica" Luna said to Marinette.

"Thank you, Luna," Marinette said.

"I'll see you guys soon," Luna said before departing.

"See you later" Adrien waved goodbye

"Heh, your feline cousin is becoming more open to the world" Marinette chuckled.

"Yeah, she is" Adrien nearly laughed.

Later at the Liberty houseboat, the adult heroes arrived to introduce themselves to the teenagers.

"Greetings everyone" Pelle waved to them.

"Hola" Luna said shyly.

"I'm Pelle from Sweden," Pelle said.

"And I'm Luna from New York," Luna said.

"Welcome onboard you two," Luka said.

"Thanks. You're Luka?" Pelle guessed.

"That's right" Luka replied.

Luna raises a brow that he looks a bit like Viperion but decides to not go crazy with her theories but simply get to know everyone on the boat.

"Welcome you two. I'm Juleka, Luka's sister" Juleka said.

"Nice to meet you. I love your hairstyle" Luna said.

"Oh, thank you" Juleka smiled.

"It's so nice to meet you all. Oh, is that a keyboard? I never played a piano since I was 11" Pelle really liked the keyboard piano.

"Yep, it is," Luka said.

"Wow. An electric guitar. So many memories when mi papi taught me to play a guitar when I was 8" Luna admired the guitar, "It's been so long"

"So you want us two to play them?" Pelle asked them.

"Of course. It's nice to see another musical instrument player" Luka said.

"Well, it's worth a try" Pelle sets the keyboard settings.

"It's been so long since I stopped playing at age 10" Luna made sure the strings were right.

"I hope I still got it," Pelle said to his friend.

"But which song? I have Do you believe in Magic? which I sang once" Luna said.

"I got one. Favorite Daydream. It's a cool feeling" Pelle suggested.

Hey you, the star I'm wishing on,

Light up my world when things are wrong,

Wanna tell you but I trip over my words,

I'm falling hard, is love supposed to hurt?

I tried to get over this crush,

Under your spell, all I do is blush,

Being with you is such a rush,

And I can't get enough.

Caught myself thinking about you,

When you smile I don't know what to do,

It's cliche but you're perfect to me,

Imagine how good this could be.

Cos I'm right beside you baby,

I wish that you could see,

Just how much I care about you,

How much you mean to me,

But I'm way too shy to tell you the truth, oh,

I'll keep drawing hearts for now,

You're just my favorite daydream.

Hey you, the angel saving me,

Don't you know you're my everything?

I pray one day I won't have to hide,

All the feelings that I'm keeping inside,

Try to decode every clue,

To figure out just what I mean to you.

Wondering about the times we've had,

Seen you happy, and I've seen you mad,

Sad, defeated, felt like no one cared,

Wish you could see, I'll always be there.

Cos I'm right beside you baby,

I wish that you could see,

Just how much I care about you,

How much you mean to me,

But I'm way too shy to tell you the truth, oh,

I'll keep drawing hearts for now,

You're just my favorite daydream.

How can someone you know so well,

Be such a mystery?

We've been through good and bad, we've been through hell,

But I don't know how you feel about me.

Cos I'm right beside you baby,

I wish that you could see,

Just how much I care about you,

How much you mean to me,

Will I ever be brave enough to tell you? Oh,

I'll keep drawing hearts 'til then,

You are my favorite daydream

Eventually, they finished and they saw the teens were amazed at this. Luna hadn't sung in such a long time since her father disappeared but now she felt confident enough to sing again. Pelle never thought he'd be able to play the keyboard again but he did. He spends too much time caring for elephants for years. Even volunteering in both Asia and Africa.

"Uhhhh…merci?" Luna said shyly.

"Merci beaucoup" Pelle bowed.

"You two really should become comrades of the Resistance," Nino said.

"Oh, sure. Marinette once told us that you guys faced Monarch directly to get the miraculous back for Ladybug and Cat Noir" Luna said.

"Especially the codename based on food" Pelle chuckled.

"Well now to face this Chrysalis and give her a dose of her own medicine," Adrien said.

"She's very young and cunning than that old timer. Especially this Lila Rossi you told us about. It's like nothing can change her mind or heart because she refuses to be like anyone else with honesty" Luna said.

"Our girl Marinette tried to warn us but we all didn't listen. Lila made us all look bad by believing her lies" Alya said.

"Manipulation can be powerful to see through. Don't let the incident bring you more guilt, niños. Marinette is kind, honest, and supportive of anyone to bring hope" Luna said with kindness.

"And she has brought us confidence to me and Luna. Lila doesn't because she doesn't know how to be supportive but ruin anyone's life. She only sees everyone as her puppets to pull their strings. Don't let anyone like her do the same" Pelle said.

"Never again," Alya said.

"And remember, always check your facts, not trust every single word from a compulsive liar. Words don't have enough evidence or proof to believe without witnessing the real truth. It's like our eyes lie from not seeing hard enough but cameras do not" Luna said.

"Yup," Alya nodded.

"From what I heard in your friend's stories, it seems that Lila likes to make everyone believe her so they can become bad guys like her to one day hurt their friends. I've seen what that's like when someone tries to change you and twist up your trust" Pelle explained his experience with toxic people in his country.

"She just uses them as unwilling pawns," Nino said.

"But right now, you all learned her true nature. As long as you trust people like Marinette and Adrien, there's always something to learn in life. Yes, lying can be powerful but everyone lies. Except for animals, I know" Luna chuckled a little that animals never lie when they can't speak.

"But they can be cheeky," Pelle said.

"Heh, yeah. But you guys will one day understand. Pelle and I were just like your age. Lost and confused but growing up is how we learn. Unlike that pendeja brat that bullied some of you. For you see, she did not reach maturity or responsibility" Luna referring to Chloe.

"Yeah, now I learned my lesson to never give bad people second chances. Like you said, sometimes their minds or hearts don't change them" Adrien said.

"Exactly," Luna said.

"That's what I love about you, Adrien. You always want to see the good in other people" Marinette said.

"But everyone could be wrong" Adrien held her hands.

"You both have nice friends here. So much kindness, friendship, support, and love. Like a family" Luna said with so much heart in her.

"A big family that is," Adrien said.

"It makes me feel like moving to Paris" Pelle chuckled.

"You could one day," Marinette said.

"Yeah, but Stockholm's my home for now" Pelle replied.

"So is San Jose. But I believe Paris is our favorite country because of Ladybug and Cat Noir" Luna smiled.

"Yeah, as long as we got faith in them, we're safe" Marinette agreed.

"By the way. What's our food Codename gonna be?" Pelle asked.

"Well, it's hard to choose since you guys are from outside of Paris," Nino asked.

"Heh, well, perhaps salsa. Everyone knows that type of dipping based on Spanish" Luna chuckled.

"For me, I think... Crispbread" Pelle came up with his.

"Really?" Nino almost laughed.

"Yeah, we have crispbread to pea-soup, fish, and so forth" Pelle explained.

Luna giggled a little that it was ridiculous, "Hilarious but we'll go with crispbread. When we talk about food names it makes me hungry for tamales"

"Same here" Pelle replied.

"It was so nice to meet you all. It made me feel like a teenager again" Luna said.

"Well you two are of the most inspiring young adults there is," Adrien said.

"Thanks. You all will someday have great dreams. Don't let anyone ruin it for you like Lila and Chloe almost did. You came a long way to fulfill it because of Ladybug and Cat Noir" Pelle said.

"Thanks, Pelle" Marinette smiled.
