Here it is, the 145th full chapter of Miraculous Quirks released on time as always. The Paranormal Liberation War is finally over but the implications of it have only just begun as society reels in the fallout from the war. Of course that is only just beginning, right now the heroes and students who survived need to recover and process what happened as they get ready for the changes that the war has brought to Japan. That is all the administrative stuff that I have for you, however, and there are no guest reviews to respond to or questions to answer so I will end this note here. Do keep the reviews coming as I enjoy hearing from y'all. That is all I have for this pre chapter note so that means that it is time to sit back, relax, and enjoy the 145th full chapter of Miraculous Quirks.

Disclaimer: I do not own either of these great works of fiction.

Chapter 145: Wake of Jaku

While the full report would come from the HPSC in time, they were dealing with their own additional issues due to the death of the Chairwoman at the hands of a double of Rikiya Yotsubashi, aka Re-Destro, during an attempt to arrest him via a ruse before the raids began, there were certain bits of news that were clear and reported though specific details were sparse. That was to be expected, however, given the chaos that the aftermath unleashed upon Japan.

What was focused on in the reports was situation with the key individuals associated with both sides of the conflict. The first thing noted was that only one of the villain's fatalities had been name and that was Jin Bubaigawara villain name Twice, as Dabi had shown Hawks killing him to the nation in his recording and so that had to be confirmed though several lower tier ones that had also died. In addition there had been a number of heroes who'd perished in the raids so their deaths were naturally reported.

Unfortunately, not all the top level villains had been arrested as it was clear that Shigaraki and Spinner had escaped with reports in the wake confirming that fellow league members Dabi and Toga along with a senior Meta Liberation Army commander called Skeptic, real name Tomoyasu Chikazoku, had escaped capture at the end of the raid. All but Toga had been confirmed due to escaping from Gigantomachia, the report on Toga came from Uraraka who'd fought with her in Jaku during the evacuations that were made following Gigantomachia's arrival. However, there were still several notable names who'd been arrested.

Arguably the biggest of them was All for One's doctor and the Chairman of the Board for Jaku General Hospital Garaki Kyudai who had been arrested and charged aiding and abetting murder, mutilating corpses, embezzling hospital funds, illegal Quirk use, and several other crimes but he wasn't the only one. They'd managed to capture the walking disaster that was Gigantomachia, which given his strength was big, along with Mr. Compress who was the only member of the League of Villains to be captured along with being the only villain on Gigantomachia's back who'd not escaped.

In addition to that, all the Nomus that had been destroyed or captured were to be autopsied while the equipment that survived from the lab seized and analyzed to understand how Garaki made his Nomu. This would hopefully lead to better ways to counter them in the future though Marinette's heated katana, which had been mentioned in the report though only the weapon and not the wielder or Quirk used to make it, was already giving some of the hero support companies idea.

Meanwhile, at the mountain villa, Paranormal Liberation Front lieutenants and high ranking members of the Meta Liberation Army, Re-Destro, Geten, and Trumpet who's real name was Koku Hanabata and the leader of the Hearts and Minds Party, which itself was part of the MLA, were captured. On top of them, 16,929 members of the PLF were captured at the villa while 132 were still on the run or unaccounted for.

While the main raids had been the ones on the Gunga Mountain Villa and Jaku Hospital, there had been other raids all over the country that were all successful and all villains that were targeted in those raids were taken into custody with minimal incident. Worst of all this was that the arrested included a few heroes who sympathized with the villains and were MLA members like Slidin' Go.

The traitors were hero casualties that could be accepted as they were no longer considered heroes, what couldn't be were the heroes who'd died in the raids as at least 19 including Midnight, Crust, Native, Majestic, X-Less, and Eel Boy had been killed by Shigaraki and those under him. Those were the worst but the effects of the raid on the heroes and the perception of them would cause many to retire in the days and weeks to come as the country began to fall apart in the wake of what had happened and been revealed. It had been a costly raid and it was clear that the heroes had come out on the losing side of it.

That was just the basics of the initial report though as the members of Class 1-A recovered in the hospital the day after everything went down they couldn't focus on all that. They had to recover as many had physical injuries that required medical attention and others had deep emotional trauma to deal with having found Midnight's body, or seen other bodies, in the search and rescue efforts conducted after it was confirmed that Shigaraki had escaped and the last of the resistance at the villa had been put down.

However, they were together for the moment and trying to heal which was what the needed right now. Even those like Kaminari, Todoroki, Ida, Tokoyami, and even Bakugo who had suffered notable injuries were up and about, though the last one shouldn't be given the extent of the injuries he'd suffered at Shigaraki's hand, however two of their class were still unconscious.

The first was Izuku Midoriya who was officially listed as being in a coma. His wounds had been healed up but he had not woken up yet as All Might looked over him with his hands on one of Izuku's arm casts as he silently watched over the boy the contact telling All Might exactly what was going on not that he could talk about it though soon he'd have to as One for All had been mentioned and questions were starting to be asked. Of course upon finding out that Midoriya was in a coma, Bakugo had gotten out of bed and tried to reach him as Sato and Mineta tried to stop him.

The other classmate who was still unconscious was Marinette Dupain-Cheng. Unlike Midoriya she wasn't technically in a coma but whatever she'd done at the end of the battle, which only Midoriya and Adrien and seen and Adrien had only told those who needed to know what had happened, had burnt her energy so badly that it was taking a while to replenish it enough for her to wake up. Even then she'd need a lot more before she could move though thankfully that was the only thing Marinette needed.

As a result the changes to Marinette's Quirk weren't in the reports, nor was what had happened to Adrien, and as he'd not left Marinette's bedside since regaining consciousness in the hospital there had been no attempt to get the full story from him. What also wasn't in the reports was what Momo had done, both her change or her actions in sending Gigantomachia to Jaku.

The latter had been credited to a Guardian Sidekick brough in from overseas for such a disaster called Cavaliere and it was noted that untold lives had been saved by her actions. Momo knew that she could never take credit for it lest it divulge not only the secrets of Adrien and Marinette's past but also certain phenomenon that the world was not ready for. Still, it gave her some pride to know that her actions had saved so many lives and reinforced that she'd made the right decision to use Kaalki and her power to face Gigantomachia.

Of course there were still some questions about what she did and the way she'd changed in front of everyone but right now wasn't the time for it. It was a time for healing and making sure everyone recovered from what had happened so that they could return to U.A. before any questions were answered.

In that vein, Momo had been with Mina, Shoji, and Kirishima talking to Todoroki as he recovered and making sure that he was ok after what he'd been through though couldn't talk yet due to the injuries he'd suffered at Dabi's hands, when his family had arrived including his mother. The revelations of Dabi, or to be precise his older brother Toya, had been major and this had to be dealt with as a family both with and without Endeavor so they gave them space. It was as they left the room and the door closed behind them that Hagakure came up to Momo.

"Yao-Momo, we need you in Marinette's room." Toru said as she reached the group. "There's, there's something that needs to be discussed and with all that's going on it's better to have the initial discussion now."

"Of course." Momo said with a nod understanding what this was about. "Is she awake yet? I'm worried for her. Is there any word on what caused her current condition because Adrien's not spoken to anyone yet."

"No, Marinette is still unconscious, along with Midoriya she's the only other one of us who hasn't regained consciousness." Toru said her voice sad; Marinette was the leader of the girls and to have her out cold right now had them a bit lost but she powered through it. "This is about why she's in her current state though, I think Adrien's told Mage what happened and now we've been summoned."

"Should we come as well?" Kirishima asked a little lost with what's going on but wanting to be there for his friend and classmate. "We should support her as her classmates."

"Yeah we should be there for Marinette and Agreste." Mina said her usual smile gone given all that was going on. "He's barely left her side. He really loves her but he can't do this alone, we all love Marinette in our own way so we should be there for her as well."

"No, this request is for only Yao-Momo and myself." Toru said shaking her head. "It's, well it's a little private but I'll relay your concerns on so that the rest of the class can see her."

"Wait, you know what Yao-Momo did with that horse thing?" Mina asked her eyes wide especially because Toru had been with her when they'd confronted Marinette about Uraraka's crush and not learned a thing so she'd have expected any juicy news Toru learned to be told to her. "We need answers to that as well."

"Toru, it's ok." Momo said surprising them by using Toru's first name and putting a hand on her friend's shoulder as she stepped forward and turned to the others still lightly holding Toru's shoulder. "Yes, Toru knows the full truth of what I did the other day but this is a truth that is neither of ours to tell, it's Marinette and Adrien's and we've sworn to keep it on our honor. Please respect that for the moment. If we are needed then it has something to do with this so we should see what Mage wants. I'm sorry I can't give answers just yet but with everything going on I want to make sure that Marinette is ok first before you get the answers your deserve."

"Of course, we understand." Shoji said and the others nodded. "Make sure she's ok and let us know."

"We will." Momo promised.

"Alright then let's go make sure Bakugo isn't doing anything stupid." Kirishima said and almost as soon as he did there was yelling from somewhere nearby that could only be one person. "Never mind let's go stop whatever stupid thing Bakugo is currently doing."

The others nodded at that knowing that they'd have to wait a little longer for some answers but it was only fair for them to wait for Marinette to be ready as this was clearly to do with her and Agreste so they should be the ones to tell the class what was going on. That and it was clear that Bakugo was now causing a scene and he had some serious wounds that could reopen so they had to go and sort it out.

Once they were gone, Toru and Momo turned and walked in a different direction to the private room that Marinette had for her, given her condition it was necessary, and hurried to get there as quickly as possible. Once they were there they opened the door and walked in to find that Adrien wasn't alone with Marinette, who was still in a hospital bed unconscious and hooked up to various IVs, one of those nasal things, and monitors as they made sure she recovered, but accompanied by three others: Mage, Principal Nezu, and a heavily bandaged but alert Fei.

"Thank you for joining us." Nezu said as he sipped some tea and the girls walked in as the door closed and locked behind them. "Mage, is it safe to talk in here."

"It is." Mage said as he held up his drawn knife to show he was using it but the more noticeable thing was that the girls noted that his voice was slightly off as if something had happened though they didn't know what as they knew he couldn't be part of the raid so they hadn't seen him since before it. "I've tapped into Sonic's power; no sound will escape this room via any means known to mankind be it Quirk or tech based. Let's have a seat, you two should know how Marinette ended up this way as you will understand the deeper nature of it."

Momo and Toru just nodded as several chairs appeared and they all sat down in them though Adrien stayed by Marinette's side holding her hand as he turned his attention to his classmates. He knew that Marinette was going to be ok but he wasn't going to leave her side until she woke up and right now there wasn't much for him to say other than to confirm things so he waited as they all got settled and Momo broke the silence.

"What happened?" Momo asked. "How did Marinette burn up that much energy? It shouldn't be possible, right? I though both hers and Adrien's Quirks timed out when they hit the point of passing out."

"Normally it shouldn't be possible as you are right, when they go too far past their limits they pass out the moment they deactivate their Quirks." Mage said and Adrien nodded at that. "Unless her Quirk fundamentally changed."

"Changed?" Toru asked as Momo's eyes went wide.

"Wait, do you mean…" Momo began as she'd heard of the phenomenon but didn't voice it before Mage confirmed it.

"Yes, during the battle in Jaku Marinette's Quirk awakened." Mage said. "And as a result the cure returned."

"Hold up." Toru said a little confused as she'd not heard that term before. "What do you mean her Quirk awakened? What does that mean?"

"A Quirk awakening is a rare phenomenon that can occur later in life when a Quirk evolves on the spot usually as a result of intense feelings of stress that causes a Quirk to gain a new level of strength or even new aspects to its nature that were not previously possible." Nezu said as he sipped his tea. "The most common situations for a Quirk awakening to occur is during intense life or death situations for you or someone close to you. It is because of the requirements for an awakening to occur being so intense that in this day and age it is incredibly rare for someone to awaken their Quirk given how safe society has become so it is no wonder that the term in alien to you Miss Hagakure."

"As an example, it is highly possible that Shigaraki's increased Decay strength is an awakening of his Quirk." Mage said. "Based on what happened and what we know about the nature of Lucky Charm there is no question that Marinette's Quirk awakened in the battle. It, it was something I never thought possible as I couldn't encode it into her Quirk when I made her Miraculous power her Quirk back when she and Adrien got here because it was too different to the primary nature of Lucky Charm. I never thought that awakening Lucky Charm as a Quirk would result in its return, it just seemed so unlikely to me, but it happened only this time it works on recent damage caused by Quirks not magical Miraculous damage."

"I'm lost." Toru admitted though she was newer to all this so she'd not really had the time process the fine details of Marinette and Adrien's pasts that Momo had had. "What was the change?"

"I actually understand the change based on what Marinette has told me about the nature of the Ladybug Miraculous." Momo said. "But I'm more concerned with the whole triggering of an awakening thing. What on earth caused Marinette to awaken her Quirk? What happened to Marinette to push her to the level that her Quirk evolved to replicate the cure of her Miraculous?"

"Actually, the reason for her Quirk awakening would be me." Adrien said speaking for the first time his voice low and filled with a whole range of emotions as he looked up at them the bags under his eyes clear. "I caused it because I died in front of her."

"Come again?" Momo said as Toru blinked at that though no one saw it. "Did I hear you right? You died?"

"I did." Adrien said. "Even saw the River Styx I think though no ferryman. Course that could just be my mind rationalizing what was going on but I was almost certainly dead for about a minute or so."

"Charon tends to wait until either you pay up or enough time has passed for him to take you over for free." Mage said unhelpfully. "Naturally I'd have provided the coin if need be."

"A little too much info Mage." Nezu pointed out.

"Right, sorry." Mage said.

"How though?" Momo asked ignoring Mage and Nezu as she looked at Adrien. "What happened?"

"It was as the battle was drawing to a conclusion." Adrien said. "I'd used up basically all my energy with two massive usages of Cataclysm first to actually contain Decay where Marinette and I were and then as a precaution when Endeavor faced off against Shigaraki so all I could do was fight normally after that. Thanks to Lucky Charm, Marinette had an item that would work on the Nomu and take them down for good so long as she hit their brains so we joined the heroes in suppressing them but when there was a light over the battlefield we went to it as it was clear that something was going on. However, just as we got there Gigantomachia acted and Dabi started his ravings."

"That has been confirmed by the way." Nezu said. "He is Endeavor's eldest son so there's going to be a fallout to that once Endeavor is out of the hospital."

"Todoroki's family is with him now so they are no doubt dealing with it." Momo said. "I was giving them space when Toru came to get me for this."

"It's shaken the core of the hero world for sure and a lot of people are already losing faith thanks to what Dabi put out there." Nezu said. "It's by far one of the most damaging things to come from the other day though your actions in sending Gigantomachia to Jaku, Miss Yaoyorozu, has helped more than you could know."

"I don't deserve the credit." Momo said looking to Fei. "Miss Wu was the one who told me and the Guardians sent me the coordinates so I knew where to send him."

"Regardless of all that you used the power of the Horse Miraculous to ensure that several cities were saved not to mention the tens, if not hundreds, of thousands of lives." Nezu said. "So thank you, both of you women, for your quick actions."

"It was all I could do." Fei said speaking for the first time and Momo could hear a slight pain in her voice. "I'm just annoyed that that monstrosity wasn't hurt. He used me like a whip to beat Mt. Lady. Bastard broke all my ribs, punctured a lung, and cracked my skull with that. Thanks to these injuries I can't change for a while because someone won't call the Guardian of Bones to help out."

"You know I can't do that." Mage said. "After the shitstorm that's coming for Japan I can't call in any other Guardians, the UN is getting involved and not allowing international aid until they assess the situation so the Guardians with healing abilities like Fracture and Sanguina have to stay put for now. I can only stay to help because I'm already based here, same for all the sidekicks present."

"Not like you can do anything boss." Fei pointed out. "You're basically an observer stuck here waiting for the point that chaos runs rampant."

"Did you do anything?" Momo asked looking at Mage. "Could you with your oaths?"

"I had some leeway so I took out a little trash that I had permission to dispose of as I saw fit." Mage said darkly and in a tone that sent shivers down the girls' and Adrien's spines. "It was all I could do and after the fact but…"

"Best not to say anymore." Nezu said with another sip of tea, he was one of the few who knew the details or what Mage had done but it wasn't wise to tell them that Mage had rather brutally cute down the grunts who'd murdered Midnight as the students were still unaware of just what kind of beings the Guardians could be when the situation called for it. "Back on topic. Mr. Agreste, you were explaining how you died."

"Er, yeah, I was." Adrien said with a nod as he continued deciding that it was best not to ask more questions of Mage or what he did. "Anyway, after Dabi's little revelation he tried to kill his father and brother and so we acted and I leapt in to protect Midoriya and Endeavor as that was all I could do. Long story short, both of them ended up acting in the ensuing chaos until another, er EMP blast I think, came from Shigaraki after Mr. Compress freed them, which sent Midoriya to the ground, or maybe he was already there because of Gigantomachia briefly breaking free before Endeavor and the tranquilizers finally knocked him out."

"I heard they worked." Momo said. "That is good to know."

"Really well in fact as he's still out from them." Nezu said. "Using Kaalki's power to ensure that it worked was genius."

"Thank you sir." Momo said with a nod.

"It really saved our asses for sure." Adrien agreed. "Whatever the case, after that second EMP blast thing Shigaraki appeared and used the chance it allowed him to try and kill Midoriya with some black tendril Quirk as Midoriya couldn't move and so I leapt in and put my body between his. Took 5 tendrils to the chest which punctured both lungs and did massive internal damage."

"Didn't that happen to Bakugo?" Toru asked. "He took some kind of puncture wound according to Ida."

"It was the same Quirk but the locations that I was hit in were a lot worse." Adrien said. "They were fatal while his weren't so long as he got the aid he needed in time."

"I get the saving a friend." Momo said. "But to the point you'd die? That is some serious sacrifice."

"If I could have used Cataclysm as more than just a simple flareup I would have but I couldn't and given that Midoriya has been targeted multiple times by Shigaraki it's pretty clear that Shigaraki fears him in some way so he's got to be important to beating Shigaraki." Adrien said as he skirted the truth he knew. "Shigaraki tried to kill him before fleeing despite having the opening to flee which is telling. It was clear to me that Midoriya needs to live and I reasoned that it was better me than him. I should have died over a century ago at least but I didn't because of the madman of my time sending Marinette and me here so I'm on borrowed time in a sense…"

"No you're not." Momo said seriously glaring at Adrien as she cut him off. "You and Marinette are our friends Adrien, you have a new life here, a second chance, you can't throw it away like that. Think of Marinette? She wouldn't want to lose you like that, not after everything else she's lost and I'm certain you wouldn't want to lose Marinette either."

"I know she wouldn't, I recall how she was when she learned of my injuries against Stain and her reaction to my protection of her from that gas villain, that was why I had my support item made." Adrien said. "And I didn't want to leave her but the situation dictated it. That was my reasoning at the time. I know its stupid and seeing Marinette's face as I died and then coming back, it drove it home how stupid I'd been and you're right I'd not want Marinette to do that either. This is our life now; our second chance and we can't squander that even if I knew what I did for Midoriya was the right thing."

"Good." Momo said. "We all need you two, remember that."

"I second what Yao-Momo said." Toru added. "You went through hell Agre…Adrien, you should be allowed to be happy."

"Thank you." Adrien said with a weak smile. "I know I shouldn't have done what I did but I also don't regret it and now I won't need to worry. It allowed Marinette to awaken the cure and that will be useful going forward once we figure out its limitations, and she's done scolding me for my stupidity when she wakes up."

"Well you deserve it." Momo said and Toru nodded at that though they could only tell due to the movement of her clothes. "But it's good that that's back. It will come in handy once Marinette understands the full scope of how it works."

"Ok now that we're done chewing out Adrien for his stupidity, can someone explain what actually happened to me." Toru said a little frustrated. "How did he survive. What's this cure that you keep talking about?"

"Lucky Charm's second function." Adrien explained. "Back before the incident that sent us to the future when our powers came from the Miraculouses and the Kwamis like what you two used, there was more to Lucky Charm than just the item creation to achieve a goal feature. Once the item was used to complete its goal it could be tossed into the air and Marinette would say 'Miraculous Ladybug' and it would burst creating a swarm of magical ladybugs that would restore any damage caused in a magical fight with an akuma back to normal and I mean any damage that that akuma caused. It restored all to as good as new but it couldn't be transferred over when our powers became our Quirks."

"Why not?" Toru asked, she recalled a good bit of this from Marinette's explanation when she learned the truth now that she heard it again but she didn't understand why that aspect of the power couldn't be transferred over. "It sounds useful."

"It would be but it was tied to the magic of the Miraculouses so I couldn't make it work as part of her Quirk especially because it was in essence a different power all together so it didn't fit with the nature of Quirks." Mage explained. "A limitation on my front. It seems that her Quirk adapted it when it awakened so that she could save Adrien's life and the adaptation it underwent was in line with what her body knew from her time using the Ladybug Miraculous."

"It did." Adrien said. "It was the exact same effect as when she used it before only now it cleaned up damaged caused by Quirks and was limited in the range it could affect. That much I understand because our Quirks work by drawing on our natural energy that's why there's a time limit for how long they can be active and it seems that that requirement is still there for the cure only magnified I think. Add in that Marinette had had her item active for a while and changed it into her ultimate move briefly to try and suppress Dabi's flames before changing it back to the katana and well you can see how she burned through her energy and then some."

"It didn't kill her though." Nezu said. "I spoke with the doctors, they said that her body seems to be able to know where the final line that her body can take and still survive is and she was right at it. That's why it's taking her so long to wake up, she's spent more energy than any of us can imagine and that takes a while to replenish."

"I see." Momo said as she got it while Toru processed things but she too was starting to get it. "So now she can reverse the damage of Quirks including fatal wounds but the catch is the energy drain of it is greater. That makes sense and is damned useful. I just hope she wakes soon and can recover fast enough to start getting it under control because I don't know how long we have before the next issue."

"That is unclear though until we figure it out all school is suspended and there will be no matriculation to the next year and this is a nationwide decision." Nezu said. "But one thing is certain is that it won't be long before the next major move that Shigaraki makes. However, now that we've discussed what happened to Miss Dupain-Cheng we need to move onto the other thing I wanted to talk to you girls about. You, Miss Yaoyorozu, used a Miraculous in front of almost the entire first year hero course. That's going to need some answers."

"How did you use it?" Adrien asked there was no accusatory note in his tone he was purely curious. "We entrusted the Miraculous to you and you used it well I just want to know the details of its use so as to understand what we're dealing with. Marinette will as well when she wakes."

"I understand." Momo said her hand going to the glasses that she still wore, after everything she wasn't going to take the Horse Miraculous off now though Kaalki opted to remain in her blazer pocket for the time being. "I used it because Miss Midnight told me to get the tranquilizer into Gigantomachia's mouth and I figured that so long as we could open it I could use Voyage to ensure it, especially after we noticed that one of the defenders was Dabi. Thankfully we managed to accomplish that with Miss Wu and Mt. Lady's aid."

"That wasn't fun." Fei said. "But necessary."

"I see, that is really clever." Nezu said with a nod. "And a good use of it."

"Thank you sir." Momo. "I also was able to use the constitution boost to get high into the air and then use horseshoe tool to ensure that the villains on its back weren't a threat to us. We'd tried to take them down with Kaminari but that failed so I was next up."

"That is what the tool is for." Mage said. "Very well, that is an acceptable use but now you have to decided what to do about people knowing. This is a decision you kids have to make on your own, only when you've made it will we aid you."

"That's what we should talk about." Momo said as Nezu's phone went off so he set his tea down on a floating saucer and hopped off it to go to a corner and answer it because if he was getting a call it wasn't good given that he should only be called if it was an emergency. "But Marinette isn't awake so we should wait for her to wake up before we decide. That said, at least three of the class know of kwamis."

"They do?" Mage asked. "How do…wait don't tell me, it's Plagg's fault, right?"

"Yup he was there when me, Midoriya, Tokoyami and Kuroiro were requested for a team-up by Odd-Eye." Adrien said. "He told them what kwamis were and all that. I'm not sure how much they believed it though, Odd-Eye is an extremely strange and eccentric man so they may have just chalked it up to his eccentricities. We agreed not to talk about it so I don't know more about their thoughts on the matter."

"Regardless of if they believed him or not, Kaalki confirmed it to Kuroiro at least as he was there though Tokoyami and Midoriya weren't." Momo said. "So he's aware of them and that's just the start. I'm not sure how to explain this though I think at least your pasts may be able to be hidden if we focus on just the kwamis, their power, magic, and how that was transferred into being your Quirks."

"I'm not sure, we will have to wait for Marinette to discuss things but I personally think that the time for secrets is over." Adrien said. "At least I need to tell Midoriya as I let things slip while saving him so he deserves to know our truth at the very least."

"It is time that he learns." Mage agreed. "But the rest is up to you."

"We'll wait for Marinette." Adrien said as Nezu hung up and turned to them. "Until then all we can do is wait and…"

"Hold up Adrien, what was that about?" Mage asked looking to Nezu as he rejoined them with a look of fear and worry on his animal face. "Something bad has just happened, right? Something that will cause significant issues going forward."

"Bad is an understatement, this is catastrophic." Nezu said as he looked around and broke the news. "In the early hours of this morning, Tartarus Prison fell. It was attacked by Shigaraki and Nomus. All for One and an as of yet untold number of other prisoners have escaped."

To say that they were shocked would be an understatement, they were all wide eyed at the news. Tartarus was the maximum security prison for the worst of the worst villains which included the likes of Stain, Muscular, Moonfish, and Overhaul in addition to All for One and those were only the ones that Class 1-A had encountered in the last year. Tartarus was specially designed to hold them and their Quirks so for them to be attacked and the villains to escape, well catastrophic was the right word for it.

Things just went from bad to worse as the wake of the Jaku and Gunga Mountain Villa raid intensified and darkness loomed on the horizon. The Paranormal Liberation War may be over but it looked like a much darker one was coming and no one knew what to expect from the future as society continued to crumble around them.

So as y'all guessed Marinette's Quirk has awakened and that is how the cure returned. Of course it's now different to what it was back when it was her Miraculous power and like her Quirk it requires her own energy to use but such is the tradeoff for that kind of power. Now she has to master it but first she's got regain consciousness and deal with the fallout of Momo using Kaalki, on top of everything else going on as Tartarus has now been attacked and more villains have joined All for One. That is all that I have for this chapter, however, so I will leave it off here. As always, if you like it or have any questions please let me know in reviews or PMs, I will try to answer them as best I could and post any questions asked between uploads at the start of the next chapter and do follow and favorite this, so you are alerted to future uploads. Do keep the reviews coming as I like hearing from y'all as you enjoy my work, it motivates me to keep producing the best work I can for y'all to enjoy. Until next time.
