In the school...
Bakugo looked around the gym as all of the students from this school were being looked after. Mr. Aizawa helped the other teachers make sure all of them were doing okay after Dragon Queen came after some of his own. The nurse from the school sat in the gym taking care of any student that needed bandaging up.
Bakugo was already taken care of since his hand was already bandaged up. He stared at it, thinking about when told him what kind of power had hit him. Now that his quirk was working just fine, he felt like such an idiot.
Uraraka was trying to help him out, and he wasn't even able to return the favor. She was so nice to him when they were hero training, and now he felt he had to do something.
He looked up to see some of his classmates talking to their new friends. Ashido was hugging Jirou with tears in her eyes. Kirishima made sure Iida was okay while he was fixing his engines. Todoroki helped the nurse with some injuries that needed some ice. Aoyama was showing off his quirk to his new friends while Sato helped out with some heavy lifting to fix up the gym.
As he looked around for Midoriya, he noticed that Ladybug and Cat Noir were pulling him aside. Midoriya looked like he was crying over Uraraka, but he followed them anyway.
Bakugo walked over to them to see what they were up to.
"Izuku, there's something we found in HawkMoth's lair," Bakugo could hear Ladybug tell him from a distance, "It's kind of the reason why my costume looks different."
"Yeah, what's with your costume?" Bakugo asked her, joining on the conversation, "You look more like a Ladybug than usual. Is that actual antennas?"
Ladybug felt herself blush from that question as she reached up to touch them. They still felt real.
"Ye-Yeah... They are," Ladybug said back, "Actually, that's the reason why we needed to talk to Izuku."
Bakugo could tell Midoriya was very curious about her costume, and why her powers seem stronger and faster. She even had wings.
"There's something different about your Miraculous, but it feels just like Allmight's," Midoriya said to her.
Bakugo's eyes widened at the realization of this power. He looked back at Ladybug and noticed how much her presence has changed. It felt more like an enhanced version of the Ladybug Miraculous. Just like One for All did to Midoriya.
"There's no way..." Bakugo said to her.
"Izuku, you're actually right about that," Ladybug said as she rubbed the back of her head, "Me and Cat Noir found a bit of your quirk leftover in HawkMoth's lair."
Bakugo and Midoriya shared a look when their eyes widened in shock.
"Wha-What?!" Midoriya cried out, "Bu-But how?!"
"Shh! Not so loud," Cat Noir said to them, "We don't want everyone to know."
"We found it in a broken cord that was hooked up to you when HawkMoth took your quirk," Ladybug explained, "I tried to see if the Ladybug Miraculous could absorb the quirk by itself, but it didn't work. So I kind of..."
Midoriya's eyes widened when he noticed what she was getting at.
"Yo-You absorbed it yourself?!" Midoriya cried out by accident, "Bu-But that's dangerous! We don't know what our quirks do to you!"
"I'm sorry, Izuku. This was the only way to take some of your quirk," Ladybug tried to explain, "We didn't want Chrysalis to find it. So, I thought this was the best thing we could do."
Midoriya and Bakugo looked at Ladybug, now noticing how long her wings were. Even her yo-yo looked different with a more intricate design.
He really didn't like Ladybug doing this just because he was worried it might mess with her Miraculous.
"Are you sure you're fine?" Midoriya asked her, "I mean, One for All is a powerful quirk."
Ladybug looked down at her hands and shook them around to see if that would set it off. Nothing happened. Her headache was even gone too.
"Yeah, I'm fine," Ladybug said, "Even Tikki seems okay."
Midoriya didn't even think about her Kwami. This wasn't what he thought would ever happen to Parisian's hero. She looked like she was doing just fine, but he wanted to help her out whenever he could. This was his quirk after all. He was just glad that she able to find something as crazy as this.
"I can't believe this! Maybe I can help you with this new upgrade," Midoriya said to her, "Since it's my quirk, I could probably give you some tips and tricks."
Ladybug smiled back looking so bright and shiny.
"That sounds great," Ladybug said to him.
"So, that's all you found?" Bakugo asked them.
Cat Noir's ears lowered as he remembered what he brought back with him. He ran over to where he had left it and came back with something they both didn't even think about was missing.
It was Uraraka's gauntlet.
Midoriya's eyes looked like they were glistening just by looking at it. He really wanted to just run off and go grab his girlfriend, but he didn't have his quirk. He really needed help from his friends at this point.
Cat Noir let Midoriya have the gauntlet, and he held it close to his chest. Ladybug and Cat Noir looked at them both, knowing that they were both upset that just watched their friend get captured. Again.
"We'll get her back, Izuku," Cat Noir said to him, "I fights well. She'll be fine."
Bakugo tried not to let it get to him. But now that she had gotten through to him, he felt something for her that he wasn't expecting.
He actually cared about her.
"She is pretty strong. Of course she'll be fine," Bakugo said to them.
They all looked at Bakugo like they'd never seen him say anything so sweet about someone before, especially Uraraka. Midoriya was shocked to see him compliment on one of his friends.
"Wow, Bakugo. I've never seen you so sentimental before," Ladybug said teasingly, "It's so weird."
"Shut up! I can be sentimental if I want to!" Bakugo yelled at her.
Midoriya watched the Parisian heroes tease his childhood friend that may him feel like they could pull this off. With Ladybug's new upgrade, he hoped that she could get closer to finding out how to get them home soon.
Then Midoriya remembered something and never got around to telling Ladybug this.
"Ladybug, there's something about One for All. Something that one of the holders told me," Midoriya said to her, "They said that the only way to get home was to have One for All turned into a Miraculous."
Ladybug couldn't believe this. This quirk knew a way back home, and they knew what they were doing.
"But, Chrysalis has your Miraculous now. We've gotta get it back before she finds out more about it," Ladybug said to them.
Midoriya and Bakugo looked at each other and seemed to agree for once. Uraraka was in trouble, and Chrysalis wasn't going to give up Midoriya's Miraculous that easily.
They had to do something about it very soon.
"We can't go anywhere yet. Not without some backup."
Mr. Aizawa came up behind them, looking ready to turn in for the day. Midoriya didn't want to go against his own teacher after happened last time.
But Uraraka needed him.
"Mr. Aizawa, we need to go after Ochaco," Midoriya said to him, "Chrysalis is going to figure out how to go to our Japan before we do!"
Mr. Aizawa shushed him by wrapping his mouth with his scarf.
"I understand that you're upset. If all of this is true, then we can't risk running in not knowing anything about the Miraculous or who's working with her."
Midoriya really wanted to disagree, but he knew he was right. Even Bakugo seemed to be siding with him on this one.
"So, what do we do now?" Bakugo asked him, "It's not like we can just get a bunch more allies from our Japan. We don't even know how it works."
Ladybug then realized something Bakugo did for her a while ago and opened up her yo-yo. She reached into the pink glow and pulled out a few Miraculous.
"Why didn't think of it sooner. Bakugo is the one that got back all of the Miraculous for me," Ladybug said.
Bakugo looked at the Miraculous and for once was smiling at Ladybug. He knew she had a lot allies than she let on.
In HawkMoth's lair...
Uraraka felt so dizzy that she almost threw up right then and there. Her caramel brown eyes blinked open when she noticed that her quirk was still acting up.
She felt chains hold her in place as she floated up towards the roof. After a while of just floating there, Uraraka noticed that she was wearing gloves.
She couldn't turn off her quirk.
Her chains rattled as she tried to break free, but they barely budged.
"Looks like someone's finally awake."
Chrysalis's voice rang out, echoing across the lair. She stepped out of the shadows and into the light coming from the butterfly window.
Her cane and all.
"Did you sleep well?" She asked Uraraka.
Uraraka gave her a snarl, but then she suddenly felt heavy. She fell straight to the floor, causing her to whimper in pain.
"Don't worry about your pretty quirk of yours. King Monkey hit you with it a second time when you were out cold. It should wear off soon."
Uraraka laid there on the ground, unable to move. She couldn't move her arms or anything.
"Wha-What'd yo-you do to Deku?" Uraraka asked her, still trying to get up.
"You mean Izuku? Don't worry, he's fine. He's probably planning on saving you at some point," Chrysalis said to her while twirling her cane around like a baton.
Uraraka felt sweat bead down her forehead as this power was starting to wear her down. She could barely look up at her.
She could see Midoriya's Miraculous dangling around her waist. It glinted like Chrysalis knew she'd spot it.
"De-Deku... Tha-That's his Miraculous..."
Chrysalis flicked at it like it was a toy.
"Yeah well, now I have it. Maybe you can help me figure out how to get to your Japan with it."
Uraraka's eyes widened in shock and finally started to feel her quirk turning off. Once she was able to sit up, something in her felt anger.
Suddenly her feet ran after Chrysalis before she could think about it. The chains stopped her only inches away from reaching her. She couldn't even touch the Miraculous.
Chrysalis began to laugh at her attempt to take it.
"You really thought you could take it from me and run off?"
Uraraka barely had time to get away from her, but then Chrysalis quickly pushed Uraraka against the wall behind her.
Uraraka tried to wrap her legs around her to knock her over, but she wasn't letting up.
"Don't think you can just do whatever you want here," Chrysalis said to her through clenched teeth, "You took the Fox Miraculous from me, so you're going to pay for thinking you and those wannabe heroes can just waltz in like you own the place."
Uraraka stared daggers at her, not letting up with how aggravated she was towards her. For once though, she let Chrysalis think she had won this time around.
"What do you want from me?" Uraraka asked her.
She smiled slyly and let her fall to the ground. Uraraka began to sit up when she suddenly noticed an akuma flying straight towards her.
Uraraka backed away from it, but slammed into the wall. She watched as the akuma went into her glove.
"I need you to join me."
Another amazing chapter!
This was an interesting chapter to write! Midoriya and Bakugo are starting to get along for the sake of Uraraka! They are hoping to save Uraraka soon, but it might not happen as soon as they thought.
Uraraka and Chrysalis are back in HawkMoth's lair! She's really angry with her, but it seems like things might change between them...
More to come soon!
