In the school...
The next morning, things were a little heated up. During classes, Class 1-A were ready for hero training, and so was Ladybug. She really wanted to get in on the action. See how some of their quirks work.
Midoriya was ready to help her out, even if he didn't have one. He still knew a thing or two about wielding One for All's power.
They both stood in the gym, ready for training.
"Okay, so what's it like?" Ladybug asked him, "This One for All quirk."
Midoriya had to think about that for a second. He didn't quite know how to explain it himself.
"Well... It feels like swirling energy," Midoriya tried to explain, "Kind of like an egg in a microwave."
Ladybug nearly doubled over, laughing at how ridiculous that sounded. He ended up turning bright red, watching her laugh at his tips and tricks.
"So-Sorry, I-I was just not expecting that from you," Ladybug said to him while wiping a tear from her eye.
Midoriya's face slowly went back to normal and went back to hero training. Only this time, he tried to think of it as a Miraculous, and she if she could understand it now.
"It's kind of like a Miraculous, only the power feels more like a part of you than just a costume. For One for All, if you're able to hone in on it, you can feel it coursing through your entire body," Midoriya tried to explain.
Ladybug looked really excited to try something new with her Miraculous. She'd him use One for All, but not as much as she would've hoped. Ever since his quirk was turned into a Miraculous, he hasn't been able to use it as much.
So she really was excited to get him pumped up to get it back.
"Okay, do you feel One for All at all right now?" Midoriya asked.
Ladybug closed her eyes and concentrated. She really didn't have to concentrate that much since it was pretty obvious how different it felt compared to her Miraculous. It felt like a swirling energy more inside of her than in her Miraculous. That feeling made her wings start to flutter a little, and Midoriya's eyes lit up.
"Yeah... I can feel it..." She told him as she slowly opened her eyes.
"Now, all you have to do is imagine that feeling spread throughout your entire body," Midoriya said to her.
Everyone in Class 1-A started to notice Midoriya helping out Ladybug with his leftover quirk. They all started watching them train as Ladybug's wings started to move around to the feeling of One for All. She could definitely feel something and eventually her costume started to glow around the polka dots on her costume. It went from her stomach all the way to her fingertips and feet.
Midoriya's eyes couldn't look away as the glowing brightened.
Class 1-A were all in awe with how gorgeous she looked. Her ponytails got longer, and her suit seemed to change once again, but then they realized she had just activated her Lucky Charm costume without conjuring it.
"You got it!" Midoriya cried out, "I had to train for a while to get it just right! This is awesome!"
"Whoa..." Ladybug said as she looked at her fists, "I can't believe I just did that. I've never been able to do that without calling out--"
"Don't say it. You might need Lucky Charm later," Midoriya interrupted her, "Now's a good time to test it out. A throw a punch, anywhere you want. You've gotta feel it in your fist. Just, be careful."
Midoriya backed up quite a bit before she could do anything about it.
Ladybug looked around and noticed Class 1-A including Cat Noir were now watching her. He gave her a thumbs up, and she smiled back. She didn't want to accidentally hurt anyone, so she did what she thought was best. She swung down at the ground with a mighty yell. Her fist hit the ground, and all of a sudden it rumbled as a wave from her fist caused it to ripple.
Midoriya's eyes widened as he stumbled over the ripple. He knew she'd be strong, but with just leftover bits of his quirk she was able to throw a strong punch like that. Class 1-A wasn't expecting that to happen, especially since they've never seen do anything like that before. Ashido looked ready to squeal to delight at how much strength she had.
Once the ripple died down, she looked up to see everyone's jaws dropped.
"Th-That was... awesome!" Ashido cried out, "When were you able to do that?! I've never seen you fight like that!"
"That looked almost like Midoriya's quirk..." Iida said to her, "Bu-But, that can't be possible."
Ladybug and Midoriya looked at each other and was excited to share the news with the rest of the class. Bakugo stood with the class, knowing full well what was going on. Even Mr. Aizawa was interested in happened to Ladybug's costume.
"Well... It's actually true. I found leftover bits of Midoriya's quirk in HawkMoth's lair," Ladybug told them, "It was coming out of a damaged cord..."
Ladybug looked down at her hands to feel the energy flowing through her.
"So I took it."
"Wha-What?!" Class 1-A cried out in unison.
"No wonder your costume looks so different," Ashido said to her as she pointed out the antennas, "You look so cute with antennas!"
"Your new look has more sparkle, oui," Aoyama said to her, "Just like mine."
Ladybug felt a little warm as her face started to turn bright red. Her fingertips touched her yo-yo, and she looked down at it. She picked it up and wondered how this might affect her Lucky Charm.
Before she could try it out however, her antennas started to sense something off. Ladybug walked up to past Midoriya, and he noticed her looking around for something.
"Ladybug...?" Midoriya said to her.
Something was coming this way.
Ladybug's eyes widened when she saw someone landing on the rooftop of the school. It caused a dust cloud to roll over the gym.
"Watch out!"
Everyone ducked out of the way as the dust cloud slowly dissipated. Everyone's attention was on this person on the rooftop.
This someone wasn't even wearing a Miraculous that Ladybug recognized. Since Ladybug had taken Dragon Queen's Miraculous, they all knew that it wasn't her. Ladybug then realized they were akumatized.
They wore a helmet over their face so you couldn't see what they looked like. Their helmet was pink with something that looked like horns that poked out of it. At the end of it was a neon pink glow. Her spandex costume was a navy blue with neon pink going down their legs and all the way up her neck and arms. There were two dots going down her chest that were neon pink. They wore round light pink gauntlets with a neon pink glow around her wrists. Their knee high boots light pink and bulky with a neon pink glow around their kneepads. They even wore a bulky, light pink belt around their waist.
Ladybug could tell whoever it was, they came here for their Miraculous.
"Who are you?" Ladybug asked them, "Did you come for our Miraculous?"
This akumatized villain didn't say a word as they scanned the gym for anyone in particular. Class 1-A got ready for anything coming their way. Midoriya stood there, knowing there was something awfully familiar about the costume. But since there was a lot of dust in the air and they were far away, he couldn't quite tell.
Then, she spotted what she was looking for.
"Izuku Midoriya..."
Midoriya stiffened when he recognized that voice. It gave him shivers to hear her say his name like that. He looked up again, but found her flying over to him rather quickly. She stopped right in front of his face, and he expected her to punch him or float him.
Then her helmet opened up revealing her face. Rosy cheeks and all.
"Ocha-Ochaco?!" Midoriya cried out.
Uraraka touched him before he could anything, and he started to float. She quickly grabbed him and took off flying with him. Ladybug swung her yo-yo around Uraraka's leg, but she easily kicked it right off.
"You all better come right away if you want to see the show!" Uraraka cried out for everyone to hear.
Uraraka then zoomed away from the school, holding Midoriya under his shoulders. His eyes were wide open as they weaved around heading straight for Effiel Tower. His stomach felt like it was in knots. Soon enough, she let him down on top of the Effiel Tower. He thought she turned off her quirk, but then he suddenly felt really heavy and fell to the floor.
He couldn't even move his arms or his legs.
"Sorry about that, Izuku. But this is for your own good," Uraraka said to him, "I can't have you running away from me."
"Ocha-Ochaco... Wh-Why are you doing this...?" Midoriya asked her.
Uraraka turned around and sat on the floor with him. She lifted his chin to get him to look at her. Her eyes had a pinkish glow to them instead of her usual caramel brown eyes, really making him feel uneasy.
"You can call me, Zero."
In the streets of Paris...
Class 1-A and Parisian's heroes took off once Midoriya had been taken from the school. It seems that Uraraka was akumatized while being held captive by Chrysalis. Ladybug flew ahead of them, but she knew that she could go faster. She just didn't want to leave anyone behind.
Bakugo tried to keep up with her, but she really was a lot faster with One for All. He really wanted to get Uraraka back, and not just because he started to like her. He really didn't want Chrysalis to find a way to their home.
"Ladybug, you need to get there before we do," EraserHead said to her, "Go, we'll catch up!"
Ladybug nodded and took off using her wings to fly. She zoomed over there so fast, that Bakugo was left there speechless. He let a wide grin slip past him and let off some explosions to fly in her direction.
"Bakugo, stay with your class!" Iida called out as he tried to catch up to him, "Ladybug will handle it!"
"She needs back up, right now!" Bakugo called back, "With Uraraka being akumatized, she could be more powerful than we think."
Class 1-A never even thought about it like that. Uraraka's quirk was zero gravity, but they never thought of it possibly hurting someone.
"I'm heading off. I'll get her back."
Bakugo took off while the rest tried to follow. Even Cat Noir couldn't keep up.
"I guess we'll get to him when we can," Cat Noir said to them.
Bakugo flew off in the same direction as Ladybug. He spotted her already at the Eiffel Tower. Letting off a few more explosives, he felt himself being propelled towards it. He could even see Uraraka's neon costume glowing.
Bakugo growled at Chrysalis for doing something like this to her. His teeth clenched as he noticed Ladybug start to go after her.
"I'm almost there, Uraraka... Just hold on a little while longer..."
Another amazing chapter!
This was interesting to write! Ladybug is starting to train with Midoriya! Finally! She seems to have gotten it pretty quickly. But someone interrupted them. It's Uraraka, and she's been akumatized! She's going by Zero now! Her powers are kind of a lot as the battle goes on, so right now she can touch someone and make them float or heavy. But there will be more to it. She took off with Midoriya and Class 1-A is coming to save her! It seems that Bakugo really wants to bring her back to them. They're starting to become friends!
What's going to happen next??
More to come soon!
