You were hiding pretty close to the Eiffel Tower, trying to watch the battle.

You'd seen both Carapace and Ladybug leave and return, but no signs of Cat Noir, which causes you to worry a little.

As you're watching, you get shoved from behind and fall forward onto your hands and knees.

You jump up and wheel around to see who pushed you, and are startled by what you find.

"Wha- who- are you...?" You mumble to yourself.

"You are going to pay! You ruined my life! And now, we're going to ruin yours!" The person standing there growls, then the butterfly outline you've seen many times before appears.

"It's almost time." The girl in front of you says to her akuma.

When the telepathic connection is broken, she looks at you indifferently.

"Your time is up."

"I don't think so, Lila. And how did I ruin your life?! You did that on your own!"

"You made a fool of me in front of the entire school! You and that dumb cat!"

"If you hadn't lied about literally everything it wouldn't have happened!"

"Just shut up!!" She yells and lunges at you.

You dodge, and fight back as she starts her attack.

Using her cane, she tries to hit you, and though you escape most swings she does leave a few places that will definitely hurt later on.

"Urgh!!" She says in frustration, before running quickly over to a tree and picking up a black box with red markings all over it.

She opens it, and you quickly recognize that it must be the special miraculous box.

"Hey! Those aren't yours!" You say and run over to her, hoping to be able to get the miraculouses back to Master Fu.

"They're not yours either!" She retaliates and grabs the fox's pendant.

Out flies the kwami, who looks around in confusion.

"Who are you?!"

"I am your new holder! Transform me!"

"That's not the phrase. You don't even know my name! And you didn't even ask nicely."

"How could I know your name, you haven't told me! So please do! And tell me your translation phrase!" Lila responds in that sugary sweet voice she uses to get what she wants.

"No way!"

"Nice job little dude!" You say to the fox, trying to figure out how to get the box away from Lila.

You decide the best approach is to just try and snatch it.

As you approach, Lila is still trying to find a kwami who will tell her their phrase, but none will.

When she pulls out the familiar glasses you make your move.

Though teleportation may not be the best power for this situation, it's the only phrase you know.

Grabbing them right from her hand you basically throw them onto your face as she yells at you.

"Hey!"

Kaalki appears and grins at you before realizing that Lila is right there looking through the miracle box again.

She must assume you'll have no better luck.

"Darling, what are you doing?! She will see you!"

"Sorry Kaalki, I have to. Full gallop!"

Lila spins around to see you transformed, and growls.

"How did you get the phrase?!"

"Like I'd tell! Give me that!" You say, trying to grab the bracelet she'd just pulled out.

"No way! But if you tell me how to get the phrase I might let you keep those glasses!"

"As if I'd believe you!" You say and send a kick her way, knocking her back, which causes her to drop a few of the miraculouses she was holding.

You scurry around, trying to pick them up before Lila can get back on her feet.

"Who are you?" The snake kwami asks suspiciously.

"Don't worry, I'm a friend."

"That's what she said!" The snake replies.

"Yeah, but I really am Kaalki's temporarily holder, plus Cat Noir is my boyfriend." You try to convince them quickly, as Lila is back up now.

"Ok, hurry! Can I use more than one miraculous?!"

"It's very dangerous..." The snake trails off, but it's too late, as Lila has returned, and she's angry.

She quickly starts punching and kicking at you, so you do the same.

While you're fighting, you can see the kwamis discussing something.

Before you can get Lila away so you can talk to them again, they all zoom off. 

"Where are they going?!" She asks in frustration.

"I don't know!"

You try and get her miraculous, but she deflects all your attempts.

As fast as possible, you reach for your horseshoe, but with one hand occupied Lila gets the better of you and uses the cane to knock you down.

She reaches for your glasses and tries to pull them away, but you grab her wrists.

You squeeze them tightly enough so her fingers loosen up, then quickly kick her away.

Since the only thing left of the miraculouses is the box, you decide to leave it and go help the others.

But Lila has gotten up now, and still wants her revenge.

Engaging you in battle, you fight as fiercely as possible.

Punching, kicking and blocking, you wonder how to defeat her, and who you assume is her akuma, who is still fighting all three of the other supers.

While you're trying to come up with a plan, she begins to talk to her akuma again, and you see this as your chance.

"Voyage!" You call and make the portal.

You quickly push her through and close it.

You'd been thinking of a prison cell, hopefully it's where she ended up.

The thought of her miraculous comes to mind, and you wonder if you made the right choice.

But you can't worry for long, before the kwamis appear again.

"I thought you guys left to find Master Fu or something?!" You ask.

"No, we stayed to watch. You know Master Fu, so are you really on the good side?" The snake asks, so you assume he's the leader.

"Yep. I've even taken the oath, watch!"

You demonstrate how the bubbles appear, and they all grin.

"You must be a good person! Ok, we will help you!" The snake says again.

"Great! What are your powers?"

"Well, my name is Sass, and I have the power to rewind time."

"That could come in handy."

"I'm Pollen! My power is causing someone to be immobilized, my Queen." The bee kwami says.

"That sounds very helpful!" You say.

You hear the beeping sound that means you're about to detransform, so you go ahead and release the transformation.

"I'm sorry Kaalki, I don't have an apple for you."

"Don't worry darling, I'll find something!"

"Wait, over there!" You say, pointing to a stand selling fruit.

"I'll get you an apple! Remind me to pay for it later." You start to run over to the stand.

"So can I use two miraculouses at once?" You ask while jogging, since Kaalki followed you.

"Yes, it's just dangerous to use too many, why?"

"Because I think I can use the bee kwami, what's their name?"

"Pollen. But why will you need two?"

"I thought you could only use the same kwami?"

"Oh no, you can you as many different ones as you like, usually everyone just has the same one."

"Ok, then. But if it's possible I'd still rather have you there too, so they can recognize me. And here's your apple!" You say and hold it out to her.

She shrugs and is able to carry the whole thing, so you quickly run back to where the kwamis are talking.

"Alright, Pollen? Will you please allow me to combine you and Kaalki?" You ask.

"Of course, my Queen. To transform you say our names and "Unify" and to use my special power you say "Venom"!" She says and hands you her miraculous, a hair comb.

"Thanks!" You say, talking it and placing it in your hair.

You transform into Equina first, so it's more noticeable, then add in Pollen.

After you've transformed, you ask if the kwamis can come along.

"We may need you, unless it's too dangerous."

"It's just as dangerous for us to stay here alone. We'll get in the box and you can take us that way." Sass suggests.

"Sounds good. Let's go!"

Once everyone is ready you take out the top attached to your waist.

"Ok, Ladybug uses a similar thing all the time. How hard can it be?" You mutter, taking it out and trying to figure out how to work it.

After a moment you get yourself soaring through the air towards the Eiffel.

You land out of sight, but can still see the the superheros fighting someone who changes form every few minutes.

The figure even tries your akumatized persona, which makes Cat Noir pause a second and look toward the railing.

Since the akuma is about to shoot at him, you fling the top at them, making them miss.

You don't remember exactly what your powers were, but you expect they had something to do with stressing out, which is not a good strategy.

Everyone looks in your direction, so you step out and go over to them, leaving the miracle box there, hidden.

"Who are you?!" Ladybug asks.

"Equina." You and Cat say at the same time.

"I just also used the bee miraculous."

"Where on earth did you get them?!" Cat asks.

"From the box."

"Where was the box?! Are you the one who took it?!" Ladybug questions.

"Of course she isn't! Why would she do that?!" Cat jumps to your defense.

"Well it was kinda implied!" Ladybug tries to explain herself.

"Guys! Focus!" Carapace says, as he's the one fighting most intensely.

Everyone had been fighting while talking, but not paying that close attention.

"So I thought I could use Venom to immobilize uh, that, since that's probably the easiest and maybe even only way?"

"Purrfect plan!" Cat says, and since nobody objects you ask if Ladybug could try and tie them up.

"Ok." She says, sounding very unenthusiastic.

As she's trying to wrap her yo-yo string around the akuma, they quickly catch on and change forms again, then tackle Cat Noir.

Ladybug gets her yo-yo around them both, but then a problem presents itself.

The akuma had changed into the same form used to kidnap you, so now there were two identical Cat Noirs.

"Oh jeez." Ladybug groans.

"Dude, they're completely the same! How are we gonna tell them apart?!" Carapace asks.

"I think I can figure this out." You say and walk over to where they're both standing, smirking.

Though you can tell the slight differences in the smirks.

The one you think is the akuma seems to be smirking at his own smartness, while the one you think is the real Cat looks like a confident smirk.

"Pretty sure this is the real one." You say, pointing.

"How can you be so sure?! I can't tell a single difference!" Carapace says in disbelief.

"He's right, look a little closer." Ladybug suggests.

"It's me! I'm the real Cat Noir!" Says the one you believe to be the fake.

"Ok, Lila!" Says the other.

You laugh at the joke, and look back at the others.

Carapace looks a little confused, but Ladybug seems to laugh, and you think she's figuring he's the real deal too.

"Maybe ask some questions or something?" Carapace says.

Since he doesn't know your identity he can't figure out why you would know.

"Favorite color?" He asks.

"Green." They both say.

"That was on the Ladyblog, it doesn't count." Ladybug interrupts.

"What's your kwami's name?" She asks.

"Plagg." They both say again.

"How do they both know?!" Carapace wonders.

"One of them is Hawkmoth, his kwami could've told him." You remind them.

"Kitty!" You say suddenly.

"Yes, Angel?" Cat responds quickly.

The Cat you'd been saying all along.

"I knew it! Venom!" You say and grab the top, then sting the fake.

"You're positive?!" Ladybug asks in a worried tone.

"Don't you mean pawsitive!?" You and Cat say together, laughing.

"Ok, ok. He's the right one." She rolls her eyes and pulls in her yo-yo string as she starts walking over to the Copycat.

"I knew you could do it!" Cat Noir says, hugging you, then picking you up and twirling you.

As you're spinning you see Carapace watching.

"Kitty, we're not alone, Carapace is gonna catch on!" You whisper to him.

"Oh right, crap!" He says and quickly sets you down.

Trying not to be obvious you both keep looking at him.

"Ok ok, I admit, I figured it out, just stop looking at me like that!" He says.

"Figured what out?" You say, trying to sound innocent.

"I know your secret identity is his girlfriend, but don't worry, I'm not gonna tell anyone!"

You expect Ladybug to be upset, but she's not even paying attention.

She's still trying to find the akumatized object.

"Hey, I saw a locket or something that looked out of place when he was Horrificator." Cat says as he walks over.

"Well I don't see it now, and we better hurry before that wears off! I don't know for sure how long it takes, but I'd bet it's just five minutes." Ladybug says.

"Uh, check the ring, maybe?" Carapace suggests.

She does, but it looks the same as Cat's.

"Ooh the ears! The little button  things might've been replaced!" You say.

She looks but there's nothing.

"Ugh, we need to hurry!" She complains.

Cat checks the tail and actually finds it!

Embedded in one of the belt holes is a small locket.

"Cataclysm!" Cat says, destroying the whole belt.

As the akuma flies out, the Copycat form melts away and leaves Gabriel Agreste standing there, still frozen.

While Ladybug purifies the akuma, the comb in you hair beeps for the fourth time.

"Cat, use your tail and tie him up! Hurry!" You urge, since you expect the power to wear off when you detransform.

Just as he's securing it, your costume starts changing back to just Equina, and the Venom does wear off, so the man starts thrashing around.

For the moment, you don't pay attention to him, but apologize to Pollen for not having anything for her to eat.

"It's ok, my Queen! Master Fu will give me something!"

"No! Give me your miraculouses! Adrien, I know it's you! I'm your father! I've been doing all this for your mother! How do you think she would feel if she knew you had the chance to save her and didn't take it?! She would be so disappointed!" Hawkmoth starts yelling.

You hear Carapace gasping, and Ladybug looks on in shock, but you couldn't care less at the moment.

All you care about is the hurt look on Cat's face.

You walk quickly over and reach up, then slap your hand across Hawkmoth's face as hard as you can.

And as you know first hand, the superpowers give a lot of strength.

"HOW DARE YOU SAY THAT TO HIM?!" You scream at the man, who you see as pure evil.

"How dare YOU raise your hand to me?! Didn't anyone teach you to respect your elders!?"

"Not you! Don't listen to him, Kitty. Your mother would be so proud of you!" You insist to Adrien.

"You never even met her..."

"I don't need to, and not to be disrespectful, but she'd have to pretty horrible to not be proud of you! And what does that say about you, Mr. Agreste?!" You continue.

He doesn't say anything, just looks into the distance.

You roll your eyes and ask Ladybug to take him in.

"Uhh, yeah. Can you make me a portal?" She asks as she wraps him in her yo-yo again, looking awkward from the argument.

"Right. Voyage." You summon a portal, which reminds you of how you'd sent Lila away.

"Hey, uh, if you see Lila there with the butterfly miraculous you should get that." You mention as she hands Cat his tail.

"What?!" Everyone says.

"Yeaahh, you see, she's the one who stole all the miraculouses, and we were fighting down there for a while, then I just used a portal and sent her to a jail cell. I got the miraculouses back though!" You say and quickly run over to get them.

You again apologize to Pollen, before taking off the comb and putting it back in the box.

"Wow! You are amazing!" Cat says, looking at you in awe.

"No more amazing than you, Kitty!" You respond, putting your arm around his shoulders.

Ladybug just shakes her head and walks through the portal, holding the miracle box under one arm.

"So, you're actually Adrien Agreste?!" Carapace asks tentatively.

"I guess I can't hide it, so yeah. Just don't tell anyone!"

"Don't worry dude! I won't, I could never snitch on my best bro!"

"Nino?!"

"You know it!" They do a fist bump, and Carapace looks at you.

"So that makes you Y! It all makes sense! Ladybug was L!"

"Uhh, what?" You ask in confusion.

"Slick here was in a real mess about you." Carapace says, jabbing at Cat with his elbow.

You laugh while Cat starts blushing.

"Alright peeps, I'll head out! See ya!" Carapace says, walking over to the elevator.

You turn to Cat, who is standing with his back toward the railing, and mention the apple you need to go pay for.

"Plus I need to get her another one." You say after hearing another beep.

"Plagg will want some cheese too." Cat says, as he turns to the railing.

You both walk over to it and he puts one arm around your waist and extends his pole all the way to the ground.

He gets you both down and you return to the fruit stand.

The place is completely deserted, so both of you just detransform there.

You feed Kaalki, as Adrien looks around in the bag he still had for cheese.

Adrien goes ahead and pays for both apples, and you're turned around to Kaalki while he's looking down, but after she's taken a bite her eyes go as wide as possible and she starts pointing to Adrien.

You whirl around to see none other than Lila, still transformed and sneaking out from behind the stand.

Fast as lightning, she gets out the cane, but before you can even move she's pulled a knife from the top of it and is about to grab the unsuspecting boy.

You scream and run over, and in a matter of seconds he's looked up at you, been pushed onto the ground, Lila has cut him, and you have a searing pain in your abdomen.

Jeez, this is long. And I didn't even use every idea I'd thought of!
