Copycat

"I can't believe that there's going to be a ceremony for Ladybug, Cat Noir, and Chiroptera!" (Y/n) gushed as she laid on her bed. Bitz flew in front of her face. "Well you guys do deserve it. After all you three did save Paris a bunch of times."

"Just image what the statue of all three of us will look like." (Y/n) said.

"I bet you all will look awesome!" Bitz comments.

(Y/n) pets Bitz's head. "Thanks, Bitz."

(Y/n)'s phone rang from her table. She stood up and checked who was calling. "A video chat from Marinette and Alya? I wonder what's going on?" (Y/n) answered her phone. Turns out Marinette was calling for help that she wanted to ask Adrien out to the movies. Alya agreed immediately, but (Y/n)....she looked at her clock and saw she still had sometime before the ceremony begins so she saw no big deal. She agreed to help Marinette quickly. After the phone call, Bitz quickly hid in (Y/n)'s hair to go to Marinette's house.


All three girls were in Marinette's room as they were thinking a plan for what Marinette should say to Adrien.

"Look, we all know improv's not your bag, so just stick to this script." Alya instructed as (Y/n) gives Marinette a notebook. "But all the teachers say I don't sound natural when I read." Marinette spoke. "Then all you need to do is memorize it. It's pretty simple. You can do this Marinette." (Y/n) encouraged her. Marinette looks at the Alya's phone and the script. "Forget it! This is never gonna work!" And of course, Alya taps the call button on her phone. "Too late. It's dialing." she and (Y/n) quickly hid behind Marinette's chaise. Marinette begins to panic, but suddenly stopped. "It's gone to voicemail!" She whispered.

"Leave a message! Don't improv!" (Y/n) and Alya told her.

"Uhh, hello. Uh, Adrien's voicemail, uh, this is Marinette, who, uh, has a message for you, of course, cause it's, uh, your phone, so, umm... Callmeseeyoulater,bye!" Marinette ends the message by throws the phone onto the chaise.

Alya and (Y/n) face palmed at her.

"What? What did you expect me to say? "Hey, hot stuff, this is Marinette, I'd ask you on a date to a movie, but I've got such a crazy crush on you that the only way I can talk to you without foaming out the mouth is over this stupid phone." Pretty ridiculous, right?" Marinette laughed.

"If you wish to hear your message again, press 1. If you wish to erase your message, press 2." The automated voice said. Marinette gasped. "Hit 2! Hit 2!" (Y/n) panicked.

Marinette lunges and taps the phone, but she accidentally pressed the wrong number. "Message saved. Goodbye."

Marinette screams as her face turns green with panic, before she collapses on the chaise.

"It's not as bad as you think." Alya tried to cheer Marinette up. "Okay, it's bad. But you were gonna have to tell him one of these days, some way or another. Think of it this way: no more secrets!"

"The voicemail recorded my whole conversation." Marinette muttered. "Big deal!" Alya waved it off. "You do realized that she called him "hot stuff", you that right?" (Y/n) raised her brow. "He cannot be allowed to hear that message, Alya and (Y/n)! If he does, I'll die of shame!" Marinette panicked more.

"Relax, Marinette. This is a good thing. Think about it, if Adrien's phone went to voicemail, it means that he's probably busy. Which also means you can get to it before he does. Hmm, I wonder where he'd be..." (Y/N) begins to think of a plan.

Marinette pulls down a large copy of Adrien's schedule from the ceiling. "Of course! He's got fencing club after school, that's why he didn't pick up! It ends in exactly twenty-two and a half minutes." Alya stared at her. "You are seriously insane. You know that, right?" (Y/N) shook her head. "You need some serious help, you know that?" Marinette giggles at them.

(Y/n)'s alarm goes off from her phone. She picks up her phone and panics when she saw the time. "Oh shoot! I got to get going!"

"But I thought you're coming with us." Marinette said. "Sorry, Marinette! Something came up! I'll make it up to you!" (Y/n) ran out the door as she slammed it. She quickly exited the building and found an ally to hide in. She exhales the breath she didn't know she held. Bitz flew out and smirked at her. "I think that went pretty well." (Y/n) rolled her eyes. "Very funny, Bitz. Now it's time to make it to the unveiling. Bitz, fly in the night!"

(Y/n) begins to transform as Bitz enters her choker. It reveals a glowing bat with five pieces on it. (Y/n) crosses her hands over her face as she claps her hands together as her light purple suit morphs around her. She places her hands on her head as bat ears appear and putting her (h/c) hair in a high bun with two strip of hair in the front. A light purple, tessen fan that is similar to a bats wing appears in her hand as she slashes the air and poses with the tessen in front with her as her other hand was crossed over her stomach.

Chiroptera leaped over the buildings as she made her way to the unveiling. She landing next the covered up stature. She waved to the crowed as they cheered for her. Not long, she could hear Cat Noir yelling in joy as he was leaping over a building. He lands in front of the stature as everyone cheers when he greets.

"Glad to see you could make it, CN" Chiroptera smiled.

"Are you kidding? I wouldn't mess this event." Cat Noir sat by the statue.

"Now we have to due is wait for LB."

"I can't wait to see her and the unveiling."

"Mostly see her, right?"

Cat Noir chuckles nervously as Chiroptera smirked at him.

The ceremony was about to begin and Ladybug still hasn't shown up. The sculpture named Théo walked over to Cat Noir and Chiroptera. "Excuse me, Cat Noir, Chiroptera, but Ladybug's not here."

"Don't worry about Ladybug. I'm sure she'll be here any minute. I can handle this situation alone for now. I'm the one in charge anyway, you know." Cat Noir bragged.

"Ha! Sure you are!" Chiroptera said sarcastically. "Don't worry, Théo, Ladybug might be on her way right now."

"It's just that, I wanted to ask her to autograph this photo. She's amazing. She's so brave and smart, the way she always saves everyone..." Théo looked at the photo he had. Cat Noir glare at him, but he didn't noticed. "I'm sure Ladybug would have appreciated that." Chiroptera smiled at Théo.

Mayor Bourgeois walked over to Théo. "Perhaps the ceremony should commence. It might bring her here faster."

"Please, just one minute more, Mayor Bourgeois, she's going to come, I can feel it..." Théo pleads.

Still no sign of Ladybug. They waited for a minute longer, but decided to begin the ceremony.

"It's only proper for Paris to pay homage to those to protect us from evil. Ladybug, Cat Noir, and Chiroptera!" Mayor Bourgeois announced as the statue was revealed.

Everyone cheered at the statue of their heroes. Cat Noir was poised on the left side as he was kneeling down. Chiroptera was on the right with her tessen fan in her hand in a stance. Finally Ladybug was in the middle with her yo-yo out twirling around her. The ceremony finally ended and Théo was disappointed that Ladybug didn't show up.

"These statues are amazing. One thing's slightly off though— I'm actually taller than Ladybug." Cat Noir said. "You did an amazing job, Théo." Chiroptera remarks. "Ladybug didn't show up. I just wanted to express my adoration for her. Let her know that everything I had went into her statue. I'm sure if she took a little time to get to know me, she would see how much we have in common. Our devotion to the things we love." Théo explained.

Cat Noir became more jealous of him. He wrapped an arm around Théo's shoulder. "Hey, don't mean to burst your bubble, but you know, Ladybug and me, we're a thing, you know?"

"Really?" Théo questioned.

"Yeah, we're like this." Cat Noir crosses his fingers.

With anger, Théo pushes Cat Noir away. He left angrily while growling. "What does Ladybug see in him?"

Chiroptera shook her head in frustration. She walked over to Cat Noir and slapped him on the head.

"Ow! What was that for!?" Cat Noir whined.

"For that jealous stunt you pulled right now." Chiroptera hits him again.

"Ow! Again!?"

"Another one for making Théo upset. You really have to control those emotions, Cat Noir."

Chiroptera left Cat Noir whining about his head hurting.


(Y/n) was back in her room working on her laptop, while Bitz was viewing her work on top of her head. Before she could continue more of her work, the news popped up.

"I wonder what happened?" (Y/n) clicked on the news window.

"And in some astonishing news, there's been a spectacular theft at the Louvre. Amateur video showed without a shadow of a doubt that the thief is none other than the famous hero, Cat Noir." Nadja explained. A video of Cat Noir was on. "This painting is the cat's meow." He said as he runs away with a painting.

"What the heck?" (Y/n) was in shock. "That can't be Cat Noir!" Bitz shook his head.

(Y/n) suddenly got another group chat with Marinette and Alya. She quickly answered her phone.

Alya: Problem fixed?

Marinette: Almost. I haven't erased the message yet, but I'm working on it as we speak.

(Y/N): Wait a minute. Don't tell me you snatched his phone.

Marinette: Yes? No? Uhh... I mean, I was planning to give it back. Actually, where are you guys? I can use some help.

(Y/n): Can't make right now. I'm still busy.

Alya: No can do. I'm waiting for additional deets at the Louvre on the Cat Noir robbery.

Marinette: What? Somebody robbed Cat Noir?

Alya: No, girl. Didn't you hear? Cat Noir came in and stole the Mona Lisa! In broad daylight!

(Y/n): I just heard of that! I didn't think it would be true though.

Alya: Ladybug's gonna turn up for sure, and I do not wanna miss this. Just chill and we'll be over later.

(Y/n): No worries, Marinette. We'll come by later and help out.

Marinette: 'Kay.

The call end.

(Y/n) stood up as Bitz flew next to her.

"This can't be Cat Noir. I know the cat and he's no thief." (Y/n) spoke.

"Well, let's go and clear his name!" Bitz proclaims.

(Y/n) nods as she smiles. "Bitz fly in the night!"

(Y/n) begins to transform as Bitz enters her choker. It reveals a glowing bat with five pieces on it. (Y/n) crosses her hands over her face as she claps her hands together as her light purple suit morphs around her. She places her hands on her head as bat ears appear and putting her (h/c) hair in a high bun with two strip of hair in the front. A light purple, tessen fan that is similar to a bats wing appears in her hand as she slashes the air and poses with the tessen in front with her as her other hand was crossed over her stomach.

Chiroptera leaps out of her room. She leaps over buildings as she made her way to the museum where the robbery took place. She saw Ladybug near the museum. She lands next to her as they walked over to confront Mayor Bourgeois and the police.

"Mr. Mayor, this is ridiculous. I'm sure there's a simple explanation." Ladybug said. "Kitty's in the slammer, Ladybug and Chiroptera." Roger said. "Don't think you're gonna keep him in there—" Chiroptera was cut off by Roger. "Now, now. Leave it to the experts, Chiroptera. We've got it under control." Chiroptera rolled her eyes at him.

Rogers picked up his walkie-talkie as he heard a call. "Cat Noir is getting away!"

Ladybug, Chiroptera run inside the museum. Once the were inside, they saw the police officers on the floor.

"Well, if he's so innocent, then why is he running away?" Roger questioned. "Well, if you were wrongly imprisoned, wouldn't you run?" Ladybug questioned back. Roger calls up for backup, but Ladybug and Chiroptera were getting a call from Cat Noir. They quickly ran off as they answered his call. Ladybug uses her yo-yo while Chiroptera uses the hand of her tessen fan.

"Cat Noir, what's going on?" Ladybug asked. "You know I'm innocent, don't you, Bugaboo and Batty?" Cat Noir jested. "Cat Noir be serious!" Chiroptera exclaims. "I'm gonna find the real culprit and save my tail. I'll get back to—" Cat Noir was cut off when a police helicopter appeared. Ladybug and Chiroptera ran outside and saw Cat Noir being chased by the helicopter

Roger ran up to the heroines. "Aren't you two gonna go after him?" Chiroptera smirks. "I think it's best we leave this for the experts."

Ladybug covers up her laugh as they swing away. Once on top of the buildings they were running around trying to find Cat Noir. AS they continued their pursuit, they got another call from Cat Noir.

"Cat Noir, where are you?" Ladybug asked.

"I found his den." Cat Noir answered.

"Who?"

"My Copycat."

"I'm not getting you."

"If you'd been there this morning, you'd know what I was talking about. Ask Chiroptera, she knows what I'm talking about."

"Well? Tell us where you are." Chiroptera demands.

"No, this is between me and him. I got myself into this mess, so I'm gonna get myself out." Cat Noir ends the call.

"Cat? Cat!" Chiroptera groans in frustration.

Ladybug uses her yo-yo to find Cat Noir's location and the two of them head over there. Again, they get another call from Cat Noir. Or so they thought.

"Ladybug, hurry up. I've caught the impostor at Théo Barbot's workshop." Copycat said.

"We'll be there in thirty seconds." Ladybug said, but they failed to hear the real Cat Noir.

They both finally made it to Théo's workshop and saw Cat Noir and Copycat. They ran up to them.

Ladybug stopped running. "Cat Noir! He really looks like you!"

"That's because I am me!" Cat Noir told.

"Where is his akuma, CN" Chiroptera narrowed her eyes.

"Inside his ring, of course. Grab it." Copycat said.

Ladybug kneels down as she was about to grab Cat Noir's ring. She stopped when his ring starts beeping. "He even has the same powers as you."

"Simply amazing, isn't it?" Copycat remarks.

"If you don't believe I'm the real Cat Noir, ask him about our love for each other." Cat Noir tried to tell her it's him. Ladybug was confused on what he was saying. "Have I ever lied to you, Bugaboo?" He winks.

Ladybug finally got what he meant. She close to Copycat. "I hope you didn't tell him about us."

"What?" Copycat was confused.

"That we're... you know, we made a secret promise?" Ladybug told.

"Uh, yes! Of course!" Copycat quickly agreed.

"We never made a promise. Copycat!" Ladybug exposed.

"So thats Copycat, huh?" Chiroptera crossed her arms.

"I love you, Ladybug! I'm way better than this mangy alley cat!" Copycat growls.

"Sorry, but liars are losers. Cat Noir may annoy me to pieces, but he's never lied to me." Ladybug explained. "She's got a point about liars. They're nothing but trouble. Cat Noir is annoying, but he never lies to us." Chiroptera smirks. "Thanks for the compliment. I think." Cat Noir confusedly thanked. He kicks Copycat off of him and he flips on the other side of the workshop.

"If I can't have you, then nobody will! Cataclysm!" Copycat summons his power.

"Let's wrap this up! Lucky charm!" Ladybug summons her power. "A spoon? What am I supposed to do with this?"

Copycat is about to use his Cataclysm, but Chiroptera holds Cat Noir's chains up so that Copycat breaks them and frees Cat Noir.

"Excellent job, Batty." Cat Nour complimented. Chiroptera winked at him. "No problem! Now where's his akuma?"

"The photo in his pocket. Let's make it snappy." He told. Copycat laughed. "You're going to change back before me."
Copycat holds up two staffs as he charges at Cat noir. They both began to fights as Ladybug and Chiroptera joined in. Ladybug throws her yo-yo at Copycat, but he smacked it away.

"He's pretty good." Ladybug gasped. "Don't need to rub it in!" Cat Noir complains. "I told you I was better than him." Copcat brags.

Chiroptera kicks Cat Noir's staff away from Copycat as Ladybug caught it with her yo-yo. "But we're better than both of you!" The two heroines said in union. Ladybug tosses Cat Noir's staff back to him.

Both cats resume their fight, but Ladybug caught Cat Noir by mistake.
"Hey, it's me!" Cat Noir defended. "He's lying! I'm the real one!" Copycat lied. "Ugh, now you're both annoying me to pieces!" Ladybug groans.

"I got this! Echo!" Chiroptera summons her power. She throws the glowing orb and saw wave signals only she could see. She could see both cat's rings beeping, but she saw one that had more pads than the other. "That one is Copycat! Cat Noir, scratch attack!"

"Gladly. I love a good cat fight." Cat Noir goes after Copycat.

Ladybug uses her lucky vision, and it shows her Cat Noir's staff, a wooden rod, her yo-yo and the spoon. Ladybug uses these to make a fishing rod while Cat Noir used his feet to prevent Copycat from attacking and Cat Noir blinks and he unzips the pocket that has the photo.

"Time to go akuma fishing!" Ladybug uses the fishing rod to lift Copycat into the ceiling. Chiroptera caught his photo and tosses it to Ladybug. She grabs his photo and tears it to release the akuma. "No more evil-doing for you, little akuma. Time to de-evilize!" She catches the akuma. "Gotcha!" She relaxes the butterflies and tosses the spoon into the air." Bye bye, little butterfly. Miraculous ladybug!" Everything was turned back to normal. Cat Noir caught Théo on time before he could fall.

"Nice catch!" Ladybug comments. "I'm so glad you both could tell the real cat from the fake one." Cat Noir said.

"Once I figured out which cat was really in love with me," Ladybug begins to explain. "And annoys us both, it was a no-brainer." Chiroptera adds.

Cat Noir's ring beeps. "Better help the fellow out. His crush just got crushed. That makes two of us."

"Ugh... What am I doing here? Chiroptera? Ladybug?" Théo questioned. Ladybug hands him his photo back. "I'm sorry I couldn't make it this morning, Théo." Théo pulls out a pen. "Can you autograph it for me?"

"Of course I can! You've got some real artistry here. You've really captured my essence." Ladybug signs it. "Thank you, Ladybug. And don't worry. I know about you and Cat Noir. It's okay." Théo apologizes which caused Ladybug to be confused. "That is something I could explain later, Ladybug." Chiroptera chuckles nervously.

Back in Marinette's room, Alya and (Y/n) watched as Marinette delete the message from Adrien's phone.

"You know what? I'm gonna tell him I found his phone. That'd be a good way to start up a conversation, wouldn't it? And I'll invite him to the movies." Marinette suggested.

"Not a bad idea, Marinette." (Y/n) smiled. "That's our girl." Alya said.

The next day at school, the three girls could hear Adrien and Nino talking about his lost phone. (Y/n) leans over to her friends as she watched Marinette looking nervous. "What are you waiting for? Give it to him." She whispered.

Instead of Marinette doing her original plan. She puts Adrien's phone in his bag, which falls over.

Huh? What in the..." Adrien looks in his bag and found his phone. "I already looked in here a thousand times!"

"You need some time off. Hey, I know, let's go to the movies tonight." Nino advised. Hey, dudes, mind if a few friends tag along?" Alya asked. (Y/n) leaned over more. "Yeah could we? The more the merrier."

"Sure thing!" Nino

Marinette looks at Adrien and jumps for joy. "Yay!"
