Episode 26: Game Plan

Nina huffed annoyed as she shot up the stairs to the Dupain-Cheng apartment. Jake and Zacharie were rushing behind her trying to get her to slow down.

"Babe, maybe-" Jake started but was cut off by Zacharie shaking his head at him.

"Emma and Sophie have been radio silent all day! I get it! Emma's twin suddenly came back from the dead but still! Don't ghost us!" Nina complained.

Tsubasa and Rachel just watched Jake and Zacharie trying to rein Nina in. They weren't getting into this nonsense.

Nina reached the door and threw it opened and just stopped her jaw dropping. The rest of the group looked in confused.

In the Dupain-Cheng's living room sat a sobbing Emma in Ladybug's arms. In front of them was Hugo with a ladybug shaped box surrounded by kwamis and with a hero in the bee costume.

"I…..I what….?!" Nina cried out in shock, "whats happening?!"

Tsubasa glanced around and said, "Well, I going to guessing something must have happened with the villains since Emma is crying in Ladybug's arms and Iris is the Bee now so…."

Everyone, besides Ladybug and Emma, looked shocked at Tsubasa, "What me and Iris can't be the only observant people right?"

Emma just sobbed louder as Iris sighed, "Sit down, this is going to be a lot."

….

The blood was dripping from Emilie's lip as she left her meeting with Luna Moth.

"Seems you upset Mom," Aimee commented as she stood with her kwami Mullo.

"Don't act like she wasn't just "punishing" you the other day for losing a fight with Ladybug," Emilie shot back.

Aimee glared at her and unconsciously rubbed her still red wrist as Mullo made a distressed sound.

"Both of you stop," Henri walked up to his adopted sisters with Sass, "We need to focus. Mother said we need to prepare for the arrival of Ladybug."

That causes Aimee to raise her eyebrow, "Ladybug's arrival?"

Emilie nodded at this, "We're setting a trap for her and whoevers she bring with her. She's going to try to rescue Plagg and get the cat Miraculous back. It's going to be the last mistake she makes."

With that Emilie left Henri and Aimee standing there and headed for the elevator to go to the basement.

"Emilie?"

Looking up Emilie stared at a concerned looking Louis, Longg and Plagg. Emilie shoved a note at Louis, "Leave that note in Sophie's room and come back quickly."

"But…"

Emilie didn't wait for him to finish and climbed in the elevator and hit the button to send her down fast. Tears were starting to build in her eyes, "It's worth it….It's worth it…."

The door opened and threw herself out and raced into the room collapsing in the middle of the room between two glass looking coffins.

"It's worth it. It has to be."

….

"I'm sorry my best friend is Cat Noir?!" Jake screamed in shock.

"Louis is Dragonstorm?!" Nina cried in equal shock.

Everyone was just staring in confusion. Except Tsubasa he was sipping his coffee saying it was pretty obvious if you thought about it.

"I was Cat Noir," Emma lamented looking down at the floor in despair as she cried, "I was so stupid. So stupid. Sophie told me not to trust Emilie, Iris told me not to trust her, Plagg told me not to trust her! And now look! I lost Plagg!"

Sophie hugged Emma around her shoulders and trying to comfort her as Tikki did the same hugging her face and trying pour as much positive energy into as possible.

"Em, no one could have predicted that Emilie was Mayuri or that Louis was Dragonstorm," Rachel comments softly to her friend as Jake and Nina continued to debate among themselves over everything that was happening.

Zacharie just nodded unsure of what else he could say at the gloom of the situation.

"Enough of this!" 11 year old Hugo screamed angrily caughting everyone off guard, "We're getting Plagg back! We're getting the remaining kwami back! And were going to knock some sense into my dumb brother and sister for all this villain stuff!"

"Yay!" Xuppu agreed as he floated up, "Lets get 'em!"

Sophie looked over the kid in shock, "Hugo, me and you can't just go in gun blazing to try and stop the remaining villains."

"Yeah, you would have to fight Mayuri and Dragonstrom and Luna Moth," Zacharie pointed out concerned.

"Not to mention Cobra and Squeak," Nina added with disdain voice.

"Thats too much for just the two of you," Emma moaned in distress.

Hugo looked at the teenagers like they were idiots before putting the Miracle box on the table and opening it and releasing all the kwami he had in his possessions, "Who said it was going to be just me and Sophie!"


Author's Note

The chapter title is a reference to my favorite anime Madoka Magica. so yeah were about to start passing out all of the miraculous.

Things are about to get a little crazy.

Next time- Chloe finds the note meant for Sophie and Emma can't use any other miraculous?!
