Tangled movie inspired me more to have my very first fairytale princess style. Lila is a bit like Mother Gothel to lie to Rapunzel for years the same way Lila lies to keep her status. Like the way Mother Gothel kept Rapunzel in the dark for years, Lila in season 6 is doing the same thing by keeping Ladybug in the dark so she doesn't get discovered or defeated the same way it happened to Gabriel in the end of season 5.

Once upon a time, in the kingdom of Paris, the prince who was well known for his talent at the Royal bakery fell in love with a Chinese woman from a faraway land who was also a great cook. They were happy and so in love until their wonderful wedding day to be crowned king and queen of Paris. The kingdom brought kindness and joy as well and those who moved to Paris have given gifts and trades.
One day, the queen was pregnant with a child but at the price of becoming sick and it won't be long until it takes both her and the unborn child away. The king did not give up until his Queen and his future child were healed. He sent his Royal guards to find a miracle as best as they could in the forest.
The forest contained wonders like magic. A small little ladybug contained a pink glow as it flew and landed on the rose flower which it's glow touched the petals. The mysterious young brunette woman with a hairstyle like a fox tail was an enchantress who cared nothing but greed and attention. She had waited a long time for magic to come by a ladybug that touched the flower.
"At last" She grinned wickedly.
Once she sang a verse, the rose glowed. It grants the power of luck to the greatest desire the person wants in life. So the stranger gently touched the petals. Her greatest desire was to remain beautiful so that everyone focuses on her. The sound of horses galloping was approaching fast. So she decided to hide.
"Stop! Stop your horses!" The captain ordered his men to stop their horses as they spotted a glowing red rose.
Horses neighed at the mysterious red rose but were forced to calm down by their riders pulling the reins.
The captain walks up to it to inspect it, "This is it! It has magic in it! Quickly! Our Majesty is counting on us!"
So they dug up the rose while the stranger watched in disbelief. She thought that luck was on her side but another goes to the next.
The king's men brought the rose back to the castle and using its petals they made a potion to try to heal the queen. Hoping there are chances it can save the unborn child too. The king carefully gave his wife the potion, which she drank up. A pink glow surrounded the queen and she opened her eyes feeling better.
Almost like she had gotten better in just seconds than a week.
As months went by, a healthy baby girl with magnificent red hair and gorgeous bluebell eyes was born. The parents had never seen her eyes as beautiful as the sky or like the water. The Queen always knew that red was a very lucky color in her old country and that water was powerful. The people of France were all happy hearing the news about the princess.
The king and queen named her Marinette. The meaning of the sea is due to her eye color. As a gift for her, they gave her a tiara with a red gem with black dots on it like a ladybug. Everything was going well for the kingdom to celebrate the princess but it didn't last until that fateful night.
The same stranger that found the rose, snuck into the baby's room and picked her up from her cradle. Glancing at the red hair of the same color as the rose. Once murmuring the same song, Marinette's hair glowed too. The stranger figured that the baby had inherited the rose's powers. As she figured when cutting one strand of her hair, it loses its power and turns into a shade of indigo blue. That meant that as long as the girl's hair was cut, it would have no power. So she decided that since she couldn't steal her hair, she had to kidnap her. Even if it meant raising her as her own but also made a lie about her 'dead' parents.
The next morning the King and Queen discovered their daughter were missing. They had the royal guards search everywhere in the kingdom and town to find her. But no one succeeded. They tried and tried but could not find her. It became very sorrowful for the king and queen to lose their princess. So instead of accepting she was gone, the Queen decided to put the lanterns on her birthday in hopes of her prayers she would return. Each lantern was ladybug-themed. A symbol of luck to honor her well-being the day she was born.
The years passed and she was still missing. Deep within the forest lies a hidden camouflage on the rocks to look like moss, a tower near the waterfall.
On the highest floor lived Marinette. A beautiful girl with her mother's traits and red hair that continues to grow to her waist. No memory of the day she was born but thinks this enchantress is her mother now. She was now sitting in front of a mirror combing. Then she switched to a brush. The woman would always lie to the sweet innocent girl to ensure she learns that the outside was cruel and filled with bad people who want her hair for themselves. Marinette believed those lies; despite being so young and less experienced, there would come a time when she was old enough to see the difference. But the woman will make sure to make this lie a convincing lie rather than the truth to be revealed. That way the lost princess won't know where she came from or why her hair was important.
Then Marinette looks through the window. The lanterns lit in the sky to blend in like stars but stars don't move in the sky like that. It made her curious to know where they come from but could not disobey her 'mother' like that.
"It's beautiful," Marinette said.

The kingdom of Paris still hopes that the princess is found. The king and queen still ran their kingdom and gave hope for the people to not forget about the lost princess.
A curious young boy dressed in black like a cat was out stealing apples to eat without getting caught for theft. Even he still looks at the mural of the king and queen with their baby girl. He placed a hand on it, feeling bad for the royal family. He did hope to meet a princess for the first time but hearing what really happened was like the kingdom has no heir to the throne.
"I'd give a dime to just meet one," He said.
"You! Thief!" The merchant spotted the boy with an apple in his hand.
"You want it? Talk to my little friends!" The boy ran to the trap he set up and out came a bunch of rats.
"AGH! RATS!" The merchant got overwhelmed by the rats.
"Haha! See if you like that!" The boy laughed while munching on his apple.

18 years have gone by and the lost princess grew beautifully into a young woman and her red hair grew to her feet. Whenever the song is heard, her hair grows longer than any woman's length of hair but once the song is finished, the hair returns back to its real length.
She even made a friend with a gecko that can climb on walls and camouflage.
"Hello there" Marinette picks it up.
It simply flicks its tongue since it's an animal that can't talk.
"Heh, you're kinda cute. I should call you Tikki. We'll be great friends since I barely have any" Marinette said.
"Marinette, lunch time" The woman called out.
"Coming!" Marinette ran down.
Tikki then follows but stays hidden so as to not be seen.
"I must inform you not to get distracted by looking out the window," The woman said.
"I'm sorry, Mother Lila. It's just so happens that there's more out there than just the tower" Marinette said before taking her seat.
"The world is full of mysteries," Lila said.
"And I wanna explore them, mother," Marinette said before eating her meal.
"But beware, people still want your gift," Lila said.
"I'm sure everyone probably forgotten it," Marinette said.
"Child, you have everything here. It's safer for you here than get lost out there in a world you've barely seen" Lila said.
"Whatever you say, Mother Lila," Marinette said.
"And remember, you must never leave the tower," Lila said, hoping she could be strict with her to understand this.
Marinette still wants to explore, so she pretends to agree, "If you insist"

In the kingdom town, a young man in black clothing like a cat and blond hair like golden sun along with cat ears was lurking inside the castle to steal something valuable. He snuck into the throne room, where Marinette's tiara was placed on a cushioned display. The royal guards were too dumbfounded to hear or see an intruder anywhere. So he quietly sneaks up to the tiara. But quickly recedes into the shadows before hearing the guards coming.
"Have you found the wanted cat man? Bad luck or not, don't assume black cats bring bad luck to you all" the Captain said.
"Not yet, but he's a tricky kid," Said one of the guards.
"For years he's never been caught. Nine lives or not, his claws will break when he's hanged for thievery" The captain said.
The feline man smirked evilly before snatching the tiara quietly.
One of the guards sneezed.
"Hay fever?" The feline asked.
"Yeah. HEY!" The guard realized who he talked to.
"Meow!" He laughed before punching him out cold, "Hello boys. Just doing my shopping style"
"GET HIM!" The captain ordered the guards.
"Come on, guys. A cat needs to eat. After all, I am Cat Noir" He said before cutting the rope and ascend himself up to the roof.
"Don't let him get away!" The Captain ran outside.
Cat Noir pulls out a whip to swing towards the exit, "Can't give this cat a break" He said and swung over there.
On the roof he avoided the incoming arrows from the guards but he was fast enough to not get hit.
"Never mess with a black cat!" He taunted them.
"He's getting away! Shoot him! SHOOT HIM!" The archer demanded.
They fired a barrage of arrows at him but missed. Eventually he disappeared on the roof and escaped which left the guards defeated.
"Search the forest!" The captain ordered.
