In the hotel's lounge...
Chloe couldn't believe what had just happened to her. That teacher just up and took her phone. And right after sending him the live stream, he still treated her like garbage.
And now there was another live stream just now that showed that same teacher fighting against Ladybug and Cat Noir. Alya had said she heard them talking about defeating Monarch once and for all if they defeated this hero.
She couldn't believe it. He didn't even have any superpowers, and he still challenged them. Of course in the end, they beat him.
"Serves you right, old man," Chloe told him through the computer screen.
Alya then talked back to her audience after it was over:
"Alright folks, it looks like this fight is over! Can you believe it? Another group of superheroes have come to take back the Miraculous! All of those heroes that we use to have might actually be able to return! Like, Rena Rouge or Carapace! This is so exciting! I'll definitely get to meet these heroes as they train, don't you worry everyone! For now, I'll leave it up to the viewers. Send me some questions for them to answer, and I'll make sure they get them. This is Alya Cesaire signing off!"
"What about Queen Bee?! I was Queen Bee, too you know!" Chloe yelled at the live stream that just ended, "I deserve that Miraculous back!"
Then something fell on the floor in the middle of the lounge. With no one else around, Chloe looked over the counter. She couldn't believe what she had just spotted.
It was the Bee Miraculous!
"No way!" Chloe cried, but then covered her mouth to make sure no one noticed. Luckily, she was the only one around.
She slowly made her way over to the Miraculous, hoping she wasn't just seeing things. The light hit it, making it sparkle alive. Her eyes couldn't look away. It was more beautiful than she remembered.
She went to pick it up. As soon as she touched it, an akuma flew right into it and made contact with her.
"Queen Wasp," Monarch's voice echoed into Chloe's head, "I am Monarch, these groups of teenagers are here to replace you. They only want to defeat me so that they can take the Miraculous for themselves including the one I just gave you, the Bee Miraculous..."
"You gave me this?" Chloe said to him as she looked down at the Miraculous she once possessed.
"Yes, I want you to send a message to Ladybug and Cat Noir--"
"Yeah, yeah I know. You want their Miraculous, I got it."
"No actually, not this time," Monarch told her.
Chloe was shocked to hear this from the one that's always been after them from the very beginning.
"But, I want to! I hate them, let me take care of them for you!" Chloe yelled out.
"No! If you want to keep the Miraculous, I need you to tell Ladybug and Cat Noir that I'm coming for the green haired boy, Izuku Midoriya," Monarch told her.
"Broccoli Boy?! Who cares about him! Why do you care about him?!" Chloe yelled out.
"That doesn't concern you. You want the Bee Miraculous back, don't you?"
Chloe looked down at the Miraculous and immediately tossed her sunglasses onto the floor. She put it in her blond hair and Pollen appeared looking worried for her previous holder.
"Don't do it, Chloe!"
"Pollen, Buzz on!"
Outside the hotel...
Ladybug and Cat Noir didn't have time to tell Class 1-A much, so they tagged along anyway. The Class couldn't let them take care of this by themselves, especially when it was in the hotel.
Someone was about to be akumatized again. And by the looks of it, Ladybug had a feeling she knew who it was.
"Chloe," Ladybug mumbled, even though most of them heard her, "She's been a pain ever since I took the Bee Miraculous from her. Everyone knew she was a superhero, so that's why I took it from her."
"Chloe was a superhero?!" Midoriya cried a little too loudly.
Everyone looked at him to keep quiet.
"Sorry, I just... Didn't expect her to have one of those Miraculous."
"Well, she use to be a team member. She was really good, but Monarch found out her identity and everyone in Paris for that matter. I had to take it away for her own and her families safety," Ladybug explained.
"Is there a way to find the Akuma quicker so we don't harm her?" Iida asked her.
"Who cares about that Rich Bitch?" Bakugo interrupted, "I'll rip the Akuma right out of her!"
"All you have to do is find something she might have on her, like her sunglasses," Ladybug said, giving them an example.
Before they went inside the hotel, the Class noticed that Mr. Aizawa was staying in the back of the group. Midoriya walked up to him, wondering what he could do to help.
"Mr. Aizawa... I wish your quirk worked here," Midoriya told him, "What are you going do to help out with this?"
"I think I'm going to leave this to my students," Mr. Aizawa told him.
"What?"
Class 1-A heard what he had told Midoriya and were concerned for their teacher.
"Mr. Aizawa..." Jirou said, worried as well.
"Don't worry about it," Mr. Aizawa told them and walked up to Ladybug, "Before you guys jump in there, do you know where this Monarch guy is hiding?"
Ladybug's blue eyes lit up as she understood right away what he was getting at. She was so thrilled about him helping, but in the best way possible.
"No, we don't. The only thing we know is that we once thought it was Adrien Agreste's, the fashion model's, father," Ladybug told everyone as Cat Noir flinched after hearing his own name, "But, maybe you could look into it some more. See what you can find out for us."
Midoriya remembered seeing posters of some fashion model in Marinette's bedroom. They were everywhere. And then, spotted Cat Noir getting a little antsy about this subject. His eyes widened, but didn't say anything.
"No way..." Midoriya thought out loud, "There's just no way..."
"Alright, I'll be going then. Iida, you look after the class during this mission. Think of this as your first training mission with Ladybug and Cat Noir," Mr. Aizawa told them as he pulled down his goggles. Iida saluted to him in response.
"Thank you, Mr. Aizawa," Ladybug said to him.
"Please, call me Eraser Head while we're on hero duty," He told the heroes.
Ladybug smiled and gave him a wave.
"Good luck, Eraser Head."
And he took off just like that. Class 1-A were to continue the mission without their teacher. At this point, some of them were use to that.
"Alright, uh... What should I call your group?" Ladybug asked them.
This is when Iida stepped up as Class Rep.
"We are Class 1-A!" Iida told the heroes.
Class 1-A stood proud and Ladybug was excited to get started on some training.
"Alright Class 1-A, be careful," Ladybug said, and she opened the door very slowly, "Monarch only wants me and Cat Noir's Miraculous, so..."
"We can use that as bait!" Midoriya whisper yelled.
"Exactly."
Ladybug and Cat Noir made their way inside along with Class 1-A. Ladybug swung her yo-yo around like a lasso once again, with Cat Noir gripping his baton.
Midoriya activated One for All as they snuck in, but he didn't see anything or anyone around. Just a couple bees buzzing around the lounge. They almost stung him, and he tried to swat them away. But they just wouldn't let up.
More kept coming. Until one stung him. And then another. He had to bite his lip to stop himself from crying out.
"Midoriya, what is going?" Iida asked him, trying to keep him from blowing their cover, "We're trying to be discreet here."
"There are bees all over me. They won't let up," Midoriya told him as tears began to form under his eyes, "It stung me."
"Did you say bees?" Ladybug asked, hearing everything in the back.
She noticed they were only swarming around him. No one else.
"Oh no..." Ladybug mumbled as her eyes grew with distraught.
"Ladybug..." Midoriya told her through his wincing, "It's fine, it's just a couple of bee stings. Trust me, I've been through much--"
Midoriya suddenly felt a sharp pain run through his entire body. He tried to cry out, but he couldn't. It hurt too much.
Something began to glow around the sting marks. It looked like a target, and it was glowing yellow.
"Deku!" Ladybug heard Uraraka cry out in worry.
He was on the floor, unable to move. His superpower was even activated, but it did nothing to help.
"What the hell is wrong with him? It's just a bee sting," Bakugo said a little annoyed.
Ladybug ran over to him with the class huddled around him. She spotted the yellow, glowing targets on his arms and knew who was responsible for this.
"Queen Bee!" Ladybug cried out to an empty lounge, "Show yourself!"
Suddenly, a swarm of bees came flooding in a circle around the stairs until someone appeared before them.
"It's not Queen Bee anymore!" Chloe's voice rang out, "Call me Queen Wasp!"
Chloe stepped out of the swarm of bees and made her way down the stairs. She looked like a completely different person.
Her skin was a yellowish color. Her hair was black and yellow that swirled into a ponytail with yellow, antennae like ribbon. She wore a black spandex suit with yellow stripes. Her yellow mask made her piercing, purple eyes stand out the most.
Ladybug never thought she would ever see her again, but here she was. What made her even angrier was the fact that Monarch took that Miraculous from her. There was no way she'd have it unless...
"Monarch gave you the Bee Miraculous!" Ladybug cried out, standing up to the villain.
Class 1-A stood up in shock, protecting Midoriya from her. Uraraka made sure he was okay, but he still couldn't move.
"Chloe, you shouldn't even have that in the first place!" Cat Noir yelled at her, "You need to give it back right now! Monarch only gave it you to take our Miraculous!"
A swarm of bees went right for the students, and Ladybug tried to stop them. Most of them made it passed her around the students, pushing them away from Midoriya.
"Deku! No!" Uraraka cried out, as she tried to reach out for him.
"Sorry, heroes," Chloe told them, "But I'm not here for your Miraculous."
She suddenly flew passed the heroes with the help of her stinging friends. Ladybug tried to yank her away with her yo-yo, but she was too fast. Queen Wasp had grabbed Midoriya by his green hair and yanked him up.
"Monarch gave me the Miraculous to tell you that he's coming after Broccoli Boy here."
Ladybug and Cat Noir gasped, standing frozen still.
Class 1-A tried to reach for their classmate by using their quirk, but the bees were in the way. They weren't even stinging them. They were just keeping them away from Queen Wasp and Midoriya.
Bakugo and Todoroki were the only ones who were able to break through.
"Hey, Queen Bitch!" Bakugo yelled out as he set off some explosions, "How about send a message back to that Butterfly Bastard! Tell him that when we find him, I'll blast him out of his hiding place!"
Bakugo and Todoroki almost got her, but suddenly Queen Wasp was surrounded by that weird purple cloud. She was back to normal. The bees disappeared, and the sting marks on Midoriya faded away.
"What?! What just happened?! We made a deal, HawkMoth!" Chloe cried out.
"HawkMoth?" Class 1-A thought in unison.
Ladybug and Cat Noir ran up to Chloe and snatched the Bee Miraculous off of her.
"Hey, that's mine! Give it back! HawkMoth told me I could have it if I sent him the message!"
"And you did," Ladybug told her with glaring eyes, "But, I'm still the guardian so that doesn't apply here. I'll be taking it whether you like it or not."
Chloe tried to snatch it back, but someone grabbed her wrist before she could. It was Midoriya, and it looked like the stings wore him out.
"You don't deserve it, Chloe," Midoriya told her under his breath, "The Bee Miraculous belongs to Ladybug, not you."
She looked at him and could tell she was never getting it back any time soon.
"You'll get what's coming to you, Broccoli Boy," Chloe mumbled directly at him, "HawkMoth is coming for you, one way or another."
Chloe yanked her arm away from him and ran up the stairs in tears.
Ladybug and Cat Noir wanted to cheer that they had won the fight, but clearly this wasn't meant to be one.
They looked back at Midoriya and his quirk faded away. He was about to pass out when Ladybug quickly grabbed him before he could fall.
"Deku! Is he okay?" Uraraka asked as tears began to form.
Ladybug checked him, and he was sweating profusely. He was out cold.
After what Queen Wasp had told them, she couldn't let them stay here any longer. She felt so bad for Midoriya that this happened in the first place. She held him up as Class 1-A worried about their classmate and friend.
"I can't let you guys stay here anymore."
Another crazy chapter! Class 1-A's first mission with Ladybug and Cat Noir! It looks like Midoriya isn't feeling too good. I really liked the way this chapter turned out.
More on that later!
