In the restaurant...
Chrysalis's eyes widened in shock, feeling something come over her. She felt a weird sensation coming from AllMight as he was being punched by Midoriya. It felt like what she was fused with and got confused by the mere contact with it. She looked down at Midoriya's Miraculous and knew full well that she had One for All.
"What just happened AllMight?" Chrysalis asked him.
"It's Young Midoriya," AllMight said back to her, "It looks like he's starting to regain One for All's powers back."
Chrysalis's eyes widened, unable to understand how that's even possible.
"B-But he shouldn't be able to do that," Chrysalis said, completely shocked and speechless by this encounter.
"But he did. I tried to take it from him, but something must've happened," AllMight said back to her, "It looks like One for All is coming back."
Chrysalis couldn't believe this. She held the cane in her hands, trying to think of what to do next. She tapped her finger against the case that released an akuma. Then she smiled back at AllMight who was finally get up and facing some heroes.
"AllMight. Ladybug and Cat Noir's Miraculous, they absorbed some of One for All didn't they?" Chrysalis asked him.
She could already tell that AllMight was trying to fight against the akuma. She smiled and tightened her grip on her cane. She could feel him trying to get out of it, but something about One for All made it stronger for her.
"Y-Yes. They do," AllMight said back.
Chrysalis smiled, realizing that AllMight was being surrounded by heroes and heroes in training. She noticed through AllMight's eyes that Ladybug and Cat Noir were finally facing him.
"AllMight. Take their Miraculous from them," Chrysalis said to him, "If you can't do that, then absorb One for All. If you do that, then you can have One for All all to yourself again. Just get me their Miraculous."
AllMight tried to fight against his feeling, but something about Chrysalis was really hard to resist. She tightened her grip on her cane, and he soon got back up on his feet.
"Easy. I can grab them in a mere minute."
On U.A. Campus...
Ladybug and Cat Noir stood up against AllMight along with some other friends. Carapace, Queen Bee, Bakugo and Mr. Aizawa were standing next to them, ready to fight him. Bakugo and Mr. Aizawa got down there pretty quickly while Iida and Su Han took their time.
AllMight looked like he was talking to Chrysalis and was fighting against her. None of them could tell what was going on between them. He held his head, but eventually stood up like nothing happened. He looked at Ladybug and Cat Noir, and they instantly tensed up.
"Ladybug, Cat Noir, give me your Miraculous!" AllMight cried out.
"Seriously? We're back with that?" Cat Noir pointed out as he held his baton.
Before any of them could react, AllMight launched right at Ladybug. She didn't have your yo-yo on her so she had to use One for All to hold him back. As soon as she activated One for All, she felt something was off immediately. Her arms didn't get any stronger, if anything, she felt a little weaker as AllMight pushed her down to the ground.
"Wha-What's happening to One for All?" Ladybug asked as she tried to push against him.
"It looks like I've won, Ladybug," AllMight said back with a wide smile, "I'm going to get One for All back and you're Miraculous!"
Ladybug's eyes widened when she tried to push against him. She felt some strength coming back, but it was only enough to get away from him. She got Cat Noir to get him away from her, and she felt something off with her Miraculous. She felt her wings go limp like she didn't have enough strength to fly.
"Ladybug, are you okay?" Queen Bee asked her looking a little worried for her.
"Y-Yeah. I just..." Ladybug trailed off, realizing that her Miraculous was already beeping.
"What? You're Miraculous shouldn't be beeping! You haven't even used Lucky Charm," Cat Noir pointed out.
AllMight launched right at Ladybug, but then Cat Noir blocked her way and tried to do the same thing that Ladybug did. AllMight held onto his fists and spotted his Miraculous around his finger. Cat Noir noticed what he was trying to do and pushed him away as he dug his heels into the dirt. Once he got some leverage, he was able to push him into the school building. Cat Noir went for it and almost grabbed onto his keychain, but AllMight grabbed his wrist that held the Miraculous. He squeezed his wrist, causing him to cry out pain.
"Cat Noir!" Queen Bee cried out.
Queen Bee went after Cat Noir just as AllMight almost took his Miraculous. She activated Venom and held her spinning top as she launched right at him. AllMight noticed Queen Bee coming right at him and threw Cat Noir right at her. She tried to catch up, but wasn't very successful. They ended up tumbling together, and Queen Bee tried to not accidentally use her Venom on him.
"Cat Noir, are you okay?" Queen Bee asked him.
"Yeah... I'm okay," Cat Noir said back, "That was a close one, he almost got my Miraculous. Ladybug needs us though. Her Miraculous is about to deactivate."
They both ran over to her, but then AllMight got in between them. They both backed up, feeling a bit intimidated by him.
"Where do you think you're going, Cat Noir? I need your Miraculous," AllMight said to him.
"Leave them alone, AllMight!" Bakugo yelled at them as he launched at him with an explosion.
Bakugo went right for him, but AllMight dodged him right away. Then he quickly spun around with an explosion in his hands, but AllMight grabbed his wrist before he could. AllMight flipped him through the air and slammed him down onto the ground, causing Bakugo to get the wind knocked out of him.
"Katsuki!" Queen Bee cried out.
Bakugo tried to get up, but AllMight put his boot on top of his chest. Bakugo used his explosions on his ankle by gripping onto it, but that just made him press down on his chest, causing him to let out a cry.
"Don't even think about it," AllMight told him with a smile, "I'm not after you. I'm after Ladybug and Cat Noir's Miraculous. You should stay out of this, Young Bakugo."
Ladybug noticed Bakugo was in trouble and tried to flutter her wings. They could barely move, but she knew that she had to do something. She focused on One for All even though her Miraculous was about to run out of time. She felt it flow through her pretty quickly and launched right at AllMight. Ladybug raised her fist with clenched teeth.
"Oh look, it's Ladybug come to save you," AllMight said to Bakugo.
Bakugo heard that familiar beeping and knew right away what was about to happen.
"Ladybug! Get out of here!" Bakugo cried out.
Ladybug didn't listen to him and went in for a punch. She cried out as she went in for a punch. As soon as she made contact with AllMight, the wind picked up all around him. Dirt and dust surrounded them both, and Bakugo couldn't see Ladybug anywhere. He looked around frantically realizing that AllMight hadn't moved away from him. He was still on top of him with his foot on top of him. As the dust settled, Bakugo's eyes widened when Marinette stood there with her fist touching AllMight's stomach. Her hair was a mess with one of her ponytails falling out. AllMight smiled at her, looking at her with a piercing glare.
"Well, I guess your Miraculous ran out of time," AllMight said to her.
AllMight gripped onto his head as if he had a massive headache. Something was going on with him, and Marinette realized that she had detransformed right in front of AllMight. Her eyes widened, realizing that Chrysalis might've just figured out who she was. Marinette figured that this was the perfect time to get Bakugo out of here.
"What the hell are doing here?! Get out of here! Now!" Bakugo cried out as he got up.
"I can't do this without you," Marinette said to him, "AllMight's clearly not going to get out of this without us."
Bakugo tried to get her out of here, but then Marinette felt someone grab her leg. Bakugo grabbed her wrists and tried to keep her away from AllMight. Marinette tried to kick him away from her, but he ended up gripping onto her pretty tightly.
"Let go of her!" Bakugo cried out.
Bakugo let go of one hand and let out an explosion right at him. AllMight let go of her, but went right through that explosion and hit Bakugo right into the ground. He tried to dodge it, but knocked down to the ground.
"Katsuki!" Marinette cried out with tears coming out of her eyes.
Marinette got up and knew that she had to get her Kwami recharged. She opened up her bag, but couldn't find anything in there. Then she spotted Midoriya in the distance. She could tell that he was looking for something in his backpack. Marinette knew exactly what to do next. She ran over to him, but noticed AllMight going at it with Bakugo. She had to do something, so she noticed Queen Bee and Carapace going after him. She smiled and ran after Midoriya and Uraraka.
"Marinette! You detransformed," Uraraka pointed out.
"Yeah, I know. I think Chrysalis knows about my identity," Marinette said to them, "We've gotta do something and quick."
Midoriya soon pulled out his upgrades and knew that she needed one.
"Izuku, you need to give me one," Marinette said to him, "It's the only way to stop AllMight."
Marinette noticed that Midoriya was wondering which to give to her. He then gave her the box so she could choose for herself. Marinette looked at all of them, and the one that stuck out the most was the yellow one. Something about it just felt like the right one for something like this. She grabbed it and let Tikki have it.
"I'll make you more," Marinette said to him.
"Sure. I need one anyway just in case," Midoriya said to her, "Cat Noir should have one too."
Midoriya quickly grabbed the pink one and gave Marinette the rest of the box. Marinette hesitated, but knew that they needed this for someone like AllMight. She took the box and ran towards Cat Noir. She kept an eye on Carapace, Queen Bee and Bakugo as she ran down towards Cat Noir. AllMight spotted her, and she took off. She held the box close as Tikki ate the macaron.
"Tikki, please hurry!" Marinette cried out.
"I'm trying Marinette," Tikki said back with her mouth full of macaron.
Marinette noticed Bakugo and Queen Bee trying to hold him back as she ran. Even Carapace tried to keep his shield up to keep him away from her. He kept punching it, and it pretty much broke right away. Marinette's eyes widened as she turned back towards Cat Noir. He spotted her, and he smiled at her. She felt a sense of relief once she saw him near her. Before she could give him a macaron, she felt someone come up from behind her.
"Your Miraculous is mine now!" AllMight cried out.
Marinette's heart skipped a beat as she squeezed her eyes shut. She was getting ready for a punch, but nothing happened. She opened her eyes to realize that she was in Cat Noir's arms. She didn't even realize that she was being carried by him. Her hair had fallen out of the other ponytail, showing off dark blue hair. He had launched across the campus towards Midoriya and Uraraka.
"Are you okay, Marinette?" Cat Noir asked her, "I'm sorry. I didn't see him coming."
Marinette could help but smile as she got out of his arms.
"I should be the one apologizing, kitty," Marinette said back as she opened the box of upgrades, "Here, you need a macaron. We're going to need it."
Cat Noir looked at the box of macarons and noticed that two of them were already taken. He hesitated, but then felt drawn to the orange one for some reason.
"Are you sure? These are Izuku's upgrades after all," Cat Noir asked her.
"I'll make more. Just take one," Marinette said back a little harshly.
Cat Noir grabbed the orange one and ate it. Midoriya ended up eating his as well, but didn't feel anything yet. Marinette looked around for Tikki, but then noticed that she wasn't around her anywhere.
"Tikki?" Marinette said a little nervous.
"Don't move."
Marinette looked at AllMight to see him holding Tikki. Marinette felt her heart racing once she saw her Kwami in his hands. She felt tears coming up and clenched her fists. Cat Noir, Midoriya and Uraraka stood up with determined eyes.
"Let go of Tikki!" Marinette cried out.
"Give me your Miraculous," AllMight demanded with a smile.
Marinette instinctively blocked her earrings, worried that he might go over them anyway. Cat Noir dug his heels into the dirt as he started to feel something come over him. He felt his legs getting a little tight and hot as he got ready to go after AllMight. Something about it made him feel like he needed to charge up his legs, so he squatted up and down confusing everyone around them.
"Umm... Are you okay Cat Noir?" Uraraka asked him.
"Just fine. Just need to get ready to go after AllMight," Cat Noir said to them, "That's all."
Cat Noir just got down onto all fours and got ready to go after him. AllMight didn't even move an inch as Cat Noir got ready to take him down.
"Don't move Cat Noir," AllMight said back to him.
Cat Noir smiled at him, feeling good about this. All of a sudden, Marinette witnessed Cat Noir launching across the campus much faster than ever before. Her jaw automatically dropped the moment she saw him take down AllMight so easily. Even Midoriya and Uraraka were blown away by what just happened. Tikki flew away from AllMight, and Marinette hugged her Kwami.
"Tikki! You're okay!" Marinette said with tears in her eyes.
"It's okay Marinette," Tikki said back, "Just say Power Up already."
"Tikki, Power Up!" Marinette cried out.
Marinette suddenly was surrounded by a pink glow but with a yellow glow as well. Once she was transformed into Ladybug, her polka dots were glowing yellow. Midoriya stared at her hero costume, wondering what it could mean. Ladybug looked back at Cat Noir, and he was looking at his hands like he couldn't believe what had just happened. Ladybug was just glad that Carapace and the others were there to help him out.
Ladybug took out her yo-yo now that she finally had it back and swung it around like a lasso. She didn't feel any different, so she flew towards AllMight. She definitely still felt a little less stronger than before. Whatever AllMight did, it felt like it was either permanent or it just takes a while to recharge. Ladybug flew above him, watching Cat Noir and everyone else try to grab his akumatized object. Cat Noir almost had it, but AllMight stopped him before he could.
Queen Bee detransformed, and Bakugo kept close to her. Carapace also detransformed and stayed close to Mr. Aizawa. Cat Noir got close enough to grab it, but AllMight wasn't going to let him take it so easily. Ladybug went right for his akumatized object, hoping to throw him off. She was able to touch it, but then she felt a sudden headache coming over her. It ended up throwing her off, but felt like she had to get Cat Noir away from AllMight. She grabbed him and launched across the campus.
They both rolled around the dirt and Cat Noir ended up on top of her. She laid on the dirt, confused as to why she felt a sudden headache like that. Something about it felt familiar though. She held her head and noticed it again. Then she looked up and saw AllMight coming after them. He had his fist raised at them in the air.
"Cat Noir! Look out!" Ladybug cried out.
Ladybug quickly pulled him away from AllMight, still feeling that massive headache coming out of nowhere. She stood up with the help from Cat Noir, but she still felt it.
"Are you okay, Ladybug?" Cat Noir asked her.
"Y-Yeah. I-I just... my head..." Ladybug said, not even able to concentrate on her using her Lucky Charm.
Cat Noir looked down at his legs, realizing that whatever he had just done was definitely that upgrade. Ladybug tried to use Lucky Charm with her yo-yo, but her head hurt a lot. Then AllMight suddenly came after them both. Ladybug felt him coming but wasn't fast enough to dodge him. Then they suddenly felt like they were flying. Someone had grabbed onto them out of nowhere. They looked up to see Midoriya holding onto them.
"I-Izuku?!"
Midoriya was floating.
Another amazing chapter!
This was a fun one to write and read! I just really enjoy this arc so much! AllMight is probably one of my favorite characters that I've added to this sequel! He's just such an interesting character to write for this sort of situation. Even with all of this going on, it still amazes me how much I love those interactions between Midoriya and AllMight! They are just both so cute as father and son kind of relationship.
The fact that Lila knows about Marinette just makes things more interesting! We had another MariChat moment! Yay! I love them!
The upgrades are finally here! It looks not going to go into detail what they are, so Ladybug's is Danger Sense, Cat Noir's is Fa Jin, and MIdoriya's I'm sure you can guess what it is!
More to come soon!
