"I'm just saying," the current Black cat hero explained as she watched the Ladybug hero capture the akuma, "If I'm Ladynoir currently who are you? You can't be Mr. Bug…"

The current Ladybug glared at the self declared Ladynoir with her green eyes, "Can't I just be Ladybug?"

"No, cause I'm Ladybug!" Ladynoir argued.

The current Ladybug rolled her eyes, "Luckybug?"

"Weak," Ladynoir comments but smiled at her anyway that Luckybug returned.

"Sorry to interrupt your Catfight Ladies," a dragon villain boy appeared to glare at that.

Luckybug glared at the villain and swinging her yo-yo preparing to attack very aware of the beep of miraculously, she didn't have much time.

"Wait, did you just make a pun," Ladynoir asked in disgust.

"Um, yes," the dragon villain replied.

"You're a villain," Ladynoir complained, "You don't get to do this. Puns are me and Cat-Lucky's thing."

The dragon villain simply shrugged, "Listen I'm a fun machine and a pun machine."

Luckybug and Ladynoir just share a look of not believing this shit.

"Dragonstorm!"

The peacock villain jumped down next to him, "Mayuri."

"Fuck," Luckybug muttered as she heard another beep from her miraculous.

"I get it, let's not Drag-on this on," He replied, pulling out his sword as all three girls groaned at the boy.

Before the heroes could really blink Dragonstorm was launching at them sword slashing at Ladynoir.

"Bug!" Luckybug called out of habit but had to jump quickly to dodged a flying kick from Mayuri.

Dragonstorm and Ladynoir were clashed in baton and sword but it was very obvious that Ladynoir was not as skilled as Cat Noir or Dragonstorm.

Same with Luckybug as she was okay with the yo-yo she didn't pull off as many trips or bounces that Ladybug did.

"Come on let's stop this Catastrophe already," Dragonstrom smugly said.

Ladynoir felt her eyebrow twitch. This guy's puns were awful.

"Ugh!"

Ladynoir turned around in shock and saw Luckybug was being held with Mayuri's razor fan at her neck.

" Cat!" Ladynoir cried and gave a kick that surprised Dragonstorm then ran toward Mayuri and Luckybug with a cry of " Cataclysm!"

Before anyone really realized it, Ladynoir's hand connected with Mayuri's leg. A scream ripped from her mouth.

"Water Dragon!"

Ladynoir and Luckybug were sent flying by the rush of water as Dragonstorm rushed over to Mayuri and picked her up as he sent a death glare at the heroes before jumping away. Luckybug couldn't help but stare at Dragonstorm wondering why he had such a quick attitude change but the thought was cut off with another echo of beeps.

She turned to Ladynoir, "We need to go now."

….

Iris was packing up Emma and Sophie's items trying to come up with a good reason why they hadn't come back yet when she noticed Louis hadn't either, "Huh…."

That's when she happened to notice a red and black kwami floating down secretly and enter Hugo's bag and where they were greeted by a brown monkey.

"You've got to be kidding me…"

….

Emma sat against the edge of a wall of roof. She was exhausted, not to mention a bit freaked out after almost getting stabbed by Mayuri. Thank goodness Tikki gave her a little positive magic reinforcement before she and Plagg flew off to get some food to refuel.

"Here."

The girl glanced down and saw a hand holding a gold ring out to me. Oh, right her miraculous, she took off the earrings and slid her hand holding them to Ladybug and froze when she felt her hand shaking.

"You okay?"

"Not really," came the reply, "I attacked Mayuri with cataclysm. I could have really hurt her….I could have killed."

"Oh," Emma muttered as she took her ring out and put the earrings in Ladybug's hand.

As Ladybug moved her hand away Emma took her hand in hold, "You didn't kill her. Especially after the Miraculous Ladybug. It's fine."

"But I did it without a 2nd thought," the girl muttered, "To protect you."

A smile came to Emma's face at that, "I do stupid things to protect you too. I attacked Buzzkill with my cataclysm."

They sat in silence for a moment just holding each other's hand around the wall.

"Do you ever want to find out who we really are?" Emma was surprised to hear herself ask.

There was a silent moment before Ladybug's reply came, "One day. But you confused me right now. My emotions I mean. What you mean to me, I guess."

Emma and Sophie smiled softly and blushed as they held each other's hand waiting on the kwamis.

Bridgette sighed annoyed as she flexed her leg, "See? I'm good."

Louis looked relieved, "I guess Luckybug is not as spiteful as Ladybug when it comes with the resets."

The girl nodded with a thoughtful look.

"I better get back before my friends notice," Louis turned to Longg about to ask to transform.

"Hey, tell Hugo I love you. From me." Bridgette commented as she left the alley.

"Sure? Emma too right?" Louis asked but Bridgette was already gone.

….

Cat Noir smiled at Ladybug as she settled down next to here on the Eiffel Tower, "Want some?"

Ladybug looked at the ice cream in surprise, "Andre's Ice cream?"

"Yeah, happened to see it on the way over," Cat explained and paused as she noticed a deep blush on Ladybug's face, "What?"

"His ice cream is magical. It's supposed to represent your soulmate," The heroine explained.

"Huh?" Cat studied it and also blushed as she saw it was strawberry and mango banana. Red and yellow. Red like Ladybug's color and yellow like her hair.

"Um, I, I got nothing."

Ladybug blushed and pulled out ice cream from her side, " I stopped too. I thought at first it might be someone else."

Cat looked in surprise, "Mint and blackberry?"

She nodded.

They sat in silence for minute.

"I like someone. A lot," Cat Noir began explaining, "But, lately? I think I might feel something for you too."

"It's so confusing isn't it?" Ladybug replied, " You think you know yourself and then something happens. You feel something you don't expect."

Finally, Cat made a decision and leaned over and placed a light kiss on Ladybug's lips.

Ladybug smiled at her, "Maybe we should consider this?"

"I think we should."

….

Emma: Hey, I kinda want to apologize for being distant lately.

Sophie: I get it. It wasn't all you.

Emma: Thanks, you're like my best friend now. Possibly more than Jake and Rachel. I don't want to lose that.

Sophie: I totally get it. I won't promise not to get jealous or weird sometimes but I try to get over my feelings so give it time. You're my friend and I don't want to lose that.

Emma: Boba Tea tomorrow?

Sophie: Sure you're paying.

Emma: We're both rich. Is there a difference?

….

"Welcome to Tikki Talk," Tikki commented as she ate a cookie.

Xuppu looked at Tikki, "Legit question. It's been a while, what is even the deal with keeping identities secret?"
Plagg shrugged, "It's complicated Xuppu. Honestly, it's up to the guardian. Different rules for different situations."

Tikki nodded in agreement, "Honestly, I think Emma and Sophie can go ahead and admit theirs. Secret identities aren't helping our heroes anymore."

Xuppu nodded, "I think I understand?"

Tikki waves at the reader, "See you next episode!"
