It was the new school year, Marinette and Chloe were at school on the second balcony as they watched the students walk in and see who was new.
"I see a new girl." Marinette said as she pointed at Alya
"What is her interests?" Chloe asked
"No idea until we learned about her." Marinette said
"Here comes the Queen Bee of this school." Marinette said as she saw Jessica Redwood walking in with her possie
"She banned my father from going to any of her father's golf clubs." Chloe said as she watched Jessica antagonize some people
"Let's hope she isn't in our class this year." Marinette said
"Or one of her possies." Chloe said
"Chloe, do you think you Adrien will come to school today?" Marinette asked
"That is if his father would let him out of the house." Chloe said then the school bell rang signaling the first day of school
"Do you want to sit next to Sabrina this year while I sit next to the new girl?" Marinette asked
"I'll sit next to Sabrina." Chloe said as they both walked into class where Marinette sat next to Alya while Chloe sat next to Sabrina
"Hey, I'm Marinette." Marinette said as she held her hand out
"I'm Alya." Alya said as she shook Marinette's hand
"You're new here ain't you?" Marinette asked
"Yeah, I am." Alya said
"You'll know the lay of this class after a couple of days and the class and their antics as well." Marinette said
"So what are your hobbies?" Marinette asked
"I'm a journalist and I want to be a famous News reporter in the future like Nadia Chamack." Alya said
"That sounds like a great job to get in the future." Marinette said
"What about you?" Alya asked
"Fashion designer." Marinette said then a commotion happened behind them which made them turn
"Oh, fuck you Kim!" Ivan shouted as he held Kim by his shirt and his fist was raised to punch Kim in the face but Ms Tyler stopped him
"Ivan, put Kim down before I send you to the principal's office." Ms. Tyler said
"Oh no. He's not getting out of this punishment so easily." Ivan said
"That's it, to the principal's office right now young man." Ms. Tyler said which made Ivan throw Kim down onto the ground then he walked out
"Right, any of you have P.E. Mr. Derrick is waiting for you in the gym where he'll take you to the stadium while the rest of you go to the library." Ms. Tyler said as the class packed up their bags and walked out of class
Outside Mr. Scott's office
Ivan barged inside Mr. Scott's door which made him look up to see who dared barge into his office
"Excuse me, it's rude to barge into someone's office without knocking, please go out and try it again." Mr. Scott said which Ivan did as he walked out after he closed the door then he stood outside, that's when the Akuma appeared and went into the scrunched-up piece of paper
"Stoneheart, I am Hawk Moth. You were made fun of for not confessing to your crush well how about getting revenge on the person who made fun you." Hawk Moth said
"Yes, Hawk Moth." Ivan said as he transformed into Stoneheart
"Alright. You can come in now." Mr. Scott said then Stoneheart barged through the wall sending debris everywhere
"KIIMMMMM!" Stoneheart shouted as he marched to the other side of the office and smashed through the wall and dropped down onto the street marching towards the stadium while Mr. Scott was on the phone with the chief of police
"Yes, hello is this the police chief?" Mr. Scott asked
"Can you send an army, we have a Stone monster smashing up the school." Mr Scott said as he hung up the phone, then he fainted after what happened
In the Library
Marinette, Alya, Sabrina, and Chloe were sitting at a desk together then Marinette and Sabrina fell to the floor when the school shook
"What the fuck was that?" Chloe asked as she helped Marinette up
"I don't know." Sabrina said as Alya helped her up then they saw students staring at a TV screen so they walked over to see and that's when they saw Stone Monster rampaging on the streets of Paris
"This is so cool, a real-life villain, I could catch the two vigilantes that have been protecting Paris for years." Alya said as she ran out
"I'm going to find my dad and see if he's alright." Sabrina said as she also ran out
"It appears whoever has the Butterfly Miraculous has turned someone into his first villain." Chloe whispered in Marinette's ear
"You're right, and it's time for Crimson Bug and Honey Bee to save Paris." Marinette whispered back and the two girls ran out of the library and out into the street then they went into an alleyway where they both transformed and headed to where Stoneheart was while over at Agreste Mansion, Adrien found the a box that was holding the Cat Miraculous in so he opened it up which caused a bright light to appear then when it died down, Plagg appeared
"Oh my, just like a genie in the lamp." Adrien said
"I'm not a genie, I'm a kwami. Names Plagg." Plagg said then he flew around and started eating things which made Adrien chase after him
"Hey, don't eat that." Adrien said then after a couple more minutes Adrien caught Plagg and brought him back to the couch
"So what can you do?" Adrien asked
"See that ring on the table?" Plagg asked
"Yeah. What about it?" Adrien asked
"Put it on." Plagg said which made Adrien put the ring on his finger and it turn silver
"Okay, now what?" Adrien asked
"How do you feel about becoming a hero?" Plagg asked
"I don't know since I'm locked up in this house." Adrien said as he looked down
"You won't be locked up anymore once you become a hero." Plagg said
"So I'll get to see all of Paris as a hero instead of looking out the window." Adrien said
"Yep, all you have to do, is say these three words." Plagg said then he floated up to Adrien's ear
"Plagg, Claws Out." Plagg said
"Plagg! Claws Out!" Adrien said as he transformed into Chat Noir for the first time
"This is totally awesome." Chat said as he vaulted out of his window and out into the roof on the opposite side
"Man, this is so awesome." Chat said as he jumped from roof top to roof top enjoying the freedom of not being locked up anymore
Chat was having fun running along the rooftops until he collided into Crimson Bug and Honey Bee who turned and stared at him
"Look what we have Honey, the Cat Miraculous has been activated." Crimson said
"You're right Bug." Honey Bee said
"Listen here newbie, there's a hierarchy here." Honey Bee said
"That's right, I'm the leader, Honey here is the Co-leader and you're just a sidekick who probably going to flirt and tell jokes." Crimson Bug said then they heard a building collapsed
"Let's go." Chat said as he vaulted to where the building collapsed
"Did he not hear what we said?" Honey Bee asked
"Possibly not." Crimson Bug said
"Ugh, whoever this Guardian is, he just ruined 3 years of partnership with each other." Honey Bee said
"Don't worry Honey, we'll get that ring and you'll be the new holder of the Cat Miraculous sometime in the future." Crimson said
"I like that." Honey said
The two girls followed Chat Noir and saw they were heading to the stadium so they both landed on the roof and watched Chat smack Stoneheart on the head with his baton which made Stoneheart grow
"Okay so we can't hit him or he'll grow." Honey Bee said
"We need a plan on how to neutralize him without hitting him." Crimson Bug said then they heard Alya shouting at them
"Hey you two, the world is watching. Get down there and help your partner!" Alya shouted
"Let's get down there and help him." Honey Bee said which made Crimson Bug sigh
"Yeah, you're right." Crimson Bug said
The two heroes dropped down behind Stoneheart while Chat stood in front of him
"Hey Stonehead, why don't you pick on someone who has more experience as a hero than that newbie over there?" Honey Bee shouted which made Stoneheart turn around which made Crimson Bug examine him.
"Bee, I think he could be pure dark magic. I going to give him a cleanseing cure." Crimson Bug said
"Alright, be careful." Honey Bee said as Crimson went up to the roof to try and get the drop on him
When Crimson Bug arrived at the right spot she took a couple of steps back then she ran forward and leaped down towards Stoneheart
"Cleansing Cure!" Crimson Bug shouted as her hands glowed pink then she landed on top of Stoneheart where she put her hands against the side of his head and went to work but instead of cleansing him from the dark magic it started hurting him which Crimson Bug saw
"What?" Crimson Bug asked as she removed her hands
"This wasn't supposed to hurt them, it was supposed to cleanse them from the dark magic within them." Crimson Bug said Stoneheart grabbed her foot and threw her into the stands then he grew even taller then he smashed through the stadium and out into the city of Paris where he started his rampage while Honey Bee went to where Crimson Bug landed
When Honey Bug arrived she helped Crimson Bug stand up
"I don't get it, that should have worked." Crimson Bug said then Chat Noir arrived
"What was that you did?" Chat asked
"That was my cleansing Cure it cures anyone who's been affected by Dark Magic and since that Stone monster is affected by Dark Magic why not use it on him?" Crimson Bug said
"Didn't your kwamis tell you about the akumas?" Chat asked which made the two girls look at each other
"I believe they did 10 years ago but we were young and we started being heroes when we were 14 and all we did was stop criminals from doing crime." Honey Bee said
"So yeah, this is the first time we faced against an Akuma." Crimson Bug said
"Well then, it looks like I'll be the one leading you girls this time." Chat said as he vaulted after Stoneheart while the two girls looked at each other
"Him leading us, yeah I don't think that's going to work since I have a feeling he's all party and no work." Crimson Bug said
"Let's go and watch him fail." Honey Bee said
Honey Bee and Crimson Bug followed Chat and when they arrived they saw him facing Stoneheart
"Since he's new, he's going to use his power and use it on the Lamp post next to him." Crimson Bug said
"Cataclysm." Chat said as he activated his power then he used it against the Lamp post which disintegrated in dust
"Whoa! This is so cool." Chat said which made Crimson Bug and Honey Bee to facepalm
"Now he'll have 5 minutes until he transforms back." Crimson Bug said
"Time for you to turn into rubble." Chat said as he ran then leaped towards Stoneheart and when he landed he put his hand on Stoneheart's foot but nothing happened
"Oops, I only get to use my power once." Chat said then Stoneheart kicked Chat Noir into multiple buildings
"Seems like we'll have to pick up the slack this time." Crimson said
"Hang on." Honey said
"What?' Crimson asked as she looked at Honey Bee
"Look." Honey Bee said as she pointed at Stoneheart which made Crimson turn and they saw him transform back into Ivan while the Akuma fluttered off
"Strange. We didn't break the akumatized object yet." Crimson Bug said
Crimson and Honey both dropped down and landed in front of Ivan where Crimson picked up the paper and unscrunched it up
"You haven't got the balls to confess to Mylene. Your prick." Crimson read
"Kim wrote that he always makes fun of me for not confessing to my crush." Ivan said
"It's alright to get scared when confessing to a loved one Ivan." Crimson said which made him look up
"How do you know my name?" Ivan asked which made Crimson gulp then Alya came running over while still filming
"Real-life heroes, this is awesome." Alya said
"Were you two bitten by a radioactive Ladybug and Bumble Bee?" Alya asked
"Um, No." Crimson and Honey said
"Hang on." Alya said as she got a good look at them
"Ain't you Crimson Bug and Honey Bee, the infamous vigilantes that have been protecting Paris from criminals for 3 to 4 years." Alya said
"Yeah, that's both of us and now we are here to take down this criminal who appears to be using schoolkids to do his bidding." Honey Bee said
"Will we see more of this?" Alya asked
"I believe so but don't worry, Honey Bee and I will protect Paris against these kinds of threats." Crimson Bug said
"Even if it's our first time going against this kind of threat since we've been dealing with normal criminals." Honey Bee said
"Bug Out Paris!" Crimson Bug said then they were both gone
Crimson Bug and Honey Bee landed on a roof where they looked out into the city
"Seems like the Butterfly Miraculous has been activated and now the Cat Miraculous." Honey Bee said
"Yeah, meaning we'll have to find who is the Guardian and the Miracle Box as well." Crimson Bug said
"Hey, want to head to my place?" Crimson Bug asked
"I must head home before Father freaks out and gets the police looking for me." Honey Bee said
"Then I'll see you at school tomorrow then." Crimson Bug said
"Yeah." Honey Bee said as she kissed Crimson on her cheek then she was gone then Crimson also headed home as well.
When Crimson arrived back to her bedroom she detransformed into Marinette who smiled
"That was an exhilarating adventure Chloe and I just had." Marinette said as she sat down at her desk where she turned her computer where she watched footage of the fight
"Fighting actual superpowered supervillains is a nice change of pace after 3 years of fighting criminals." Marinette said then she saw a live Breaking news coverage so she clicked on it and saw more Stone monster
"The fuck." Marinette said that Tikki saw
"Did you capture the Akuma?" Tikki asked
"No, I was in shock as the Stone Monster transformed back into Ivan and I didn't break the akumatized object." Marinette said then she opened the Grimoire and flicked to the Butterfly Miraculous page where she read it and found what she was looking for
"An Akuma can multiply if the Ladybug holder doesn't cleanse it from the Dark Negative magic the user will be used for evil." Marinette said as she closed
"The next time Ivan gets akumatized again, I'm going to do this right and cleanse the Akuma probably this time so this doesn't happen again." Marinette said then she heard her phone ring which made her answer it
"Marinette did you hear what they said on the news?" Chloe asked
"I did, it's the Akuma, it multiplied creating other Stone Beings." Marinette said
"So what can we do?" Chloe asked
"We wait until Ivan gets akumatized again and this time we'll capture his Akuma and fix all of this." Marinette said
"Okay, I'll see you at school tomorrow then." Chloe said then she hung up
At the Agreste mansion, Adrien's Bedroom
Adrien is sitting on his couch watching the news while Plagg is enjoying his Camembert cheese which disgusts Adrien
"I'm going to smell like Camembert no matter how long I have you." Adrien said then he turned back to the news
"We got reports coming in, that all over Paris Stone Beings have appeared around the city and they are currently doing nothing. Is this a new threat that starting to appear in our city or is there something else going on? Stay tuned in to find out more." Roger said
"Plagg, what's happening?" Adrien asked
"Did you capture the Akuma?" Plagg asked
"Um, I don't know, I was thrown into multiple buildings. What does capturing the Akuma got to do with those things?" Adrien asked
"An Akuma can multiply and if that boy that got akumatized gets akumatized again then those Stonebeings will come to life." Plagg said
"Then we better make sure that boy doesn't get akumatized." Adrien said
"Oh, before I forget only the Ladybug holder can cleanse an Akuma." Plagg said
"Oh, do you mean Crimson Bug?" Adrien said
"Crimson Bug, who's that?" Plagg asked which made Adrien go to his computer and bring up the footage to show Plagg
"Crimson Bug and Honey Bee are two heroes that had been protecting Paris from criminals for 3 or 4 years." Adrien said
"(Seems like Tikki and Pollen are in good hands then, I miss you sugar cube.)" Plagg thought
Marinette's Bedroom
Marinette and Tikki were staring at the paused image of a Stonebeings on the screen
"You forgot to capture the Akuma, didn't you?" Tikki said
"Don't blame me this is the first time going against this kind of threat and I didn't know what to do." Marinette said
"Let's hope Ivan doesn't get akumatized again." Tikki said
"Please don't jinx us Tikki, you're supposed to be the kwami of good luck while Plagg is supposed to be the kwami of Bad Luck." Marinette said which made Tikki chuckle
"Sorry Marinette and did you say that my other half got activated?" Tikki said
"Yeah, he called himself Cat Noir." Marinette said as she brought up the video of Chat Noir fighting which Tikki saw
"(I miss you stinky sock.)" Tikki thought then Marinette yawned and saw it was getting dark
"Come on Tikki, let's head to bed so we don't wake up late for school tomorrow." Marinette said as she stood up from her chair then she did her evening routine and gone to bed
