The Pharaoh

"Don't blink now, 'cause we are live from Paris. Yo peeps, Alya here, bringing you the one and only Ladyblog." She turn her heard when she heard helicopter noises, "Huh? What is that?" Ladybug flies by, hanging on to her yoyo, tied to a helicopter. Loup Gris was jumping from rooftop to rooftop to chase after her poka dotted friend. Both heroes drops a book. "Ladybug and Loup Gris in action. Hang on 'cause we're going for a ride." Alya runs over and picks up the books. "Freak out! What you got here are no ordinary books, they're tenth grade history books. And I should know, 'cause I've got this very same book. Could our very own Ladybug and Loup Gris be two high school students in real life? Whoa!" 

Zoom out to reveal the Ladyblog website, which Brianna and Loona, who's eating a bowel of strawberries, are watching the video on Brianna's computer desk,

"Gosh dang it Loona, I can't believe I drop the book!" Brianna groans as she buries her face in her arms, "What's done is done; we can't change what happened. We can only move on. Alya must not find out who you are. You know how persistent she can be with her blog totally dedicated to Ladybug, even getting Loup Gris in it as well." "But how am I going to get my book back without Alya noticing?" Brianna said as she rose her head to face her little friend.

"You're the chosen one, Brie. It'll work out, trust me. Everyone has a past they can learn from." Loona finished her half-eaten strawberry before types on the computer, bringing up a page on Egyptian pharaohs. "This will show you why." Loona said as she returns to her spot next to her bowel, "An exhibition at the Louvre? On the Pharaoh Tutankhamun? What does that have to do with my book and Alya?" Brianna asked, confused on why Ancient Egypt has something to do with her situation.

"You must get Alya to go there with you, and make sure she brings the book. You'll tell her you found out something about Loup Gris." Loona said, "At the museum?" Brianna asked, "You'll see!" "Well, I don't know how I'm gonna convince Alya to go to an Egyptian exhibit, let alone convince her that I'm not Loup Gris!" "She will be interested, and so will you. Promise." Brianna's phone ranged and she checks to see a text from Marinette, saying that she and Alya are going to the museum because she found some information about Ladybug and ask her if she wants to go with them. "Ladybug is connected to the Egyptian exhibit too?" Brianna asked in surprise, "You bet." Loona said, "Looks like I'm going to the exhibit after all." Brianna said, smirking at Loona before quickly replied to Marinette that she is going with them, she grabbed her purse as Loona went in, and Brianna left to join her friends.

Alya, Marinette and Brianna got off the bus and goes into the Louvre, "Can you believe it? All I gotta do is find to do who these history books belong to and BAM, I figure out Ladybug's and Loup Gris's true identities! I'm so on this one!" "You really think you could figure out who Ladybug and Loup Gris are from textbooks that every high school student owns?" Marinette asked, "I'm with Mari on this one, Alya." Brianna agrees. "Yep. Cause our school is the only school that uses that book! HA! So, all I gotta do is find out which girls in tenth grade lost their history books last week. There are forty-four girls, not counting myself-"

"Forty-three!" Marinette cuts her off, "Not count you... or me." "Make that forty-two." Brianna quickly said, Alya elbows Marinette and said, "Hmm, yesterday certain two people didn't have their textbooks in class." "Uh- I left it at home. You know how I always forget my stuff." Marinette said in a worried tone. "I was cleaning out my bag and forgot about it, Marinette's starting to rub off on me." Brianna said, smiling at Marinette who rubbed the back of her head while smiling sheepishly.

"Hmm..." Alya squinted her eyes in suspicion before letting out a chuckle, "Just messing with you girls. Of course, I'll only drop you two from my investigation when you girls bring your history books back to class." They stopped in the middle of the exhibit, taking their time observing their surroundings when someone runs between Alya, Brianna and Marinette, carrying a folder full of papers. He pushes past them and trips, papers flying everywhere.

His medallion falls, and he picks it up. "It's not broken!" "Uh, I'm okay too, thanks for asking." Alya said, clearly annoyed, "I'm sorry." the boy apologized, "Hey, you're in the same grade as Alix, right? I'm her older brother, Jalil Kubdel. So, you're into Tutankhamun too?" Before either of them could reply, Jalil directed his attention to his father who entered the room, "Dad!"

He runs over to him, and Brianna crossed her arms, annoyed, "Tch, rude much?" She scoffed, "I prefer weird." Alya said before turning to Marinette, "So again girl, why are we here? This exhibit's got something to do with Ladybug? For reals?" "You know, I also heard that the exhibit might know something about Loup Gris." Brianna said, interested Alya more, "So let's focus on looking for something about Ladybug first before we get to that."

"I just hope it's true!" Alya said excitedly, "Well, uh..." Marinette trails off until she spots the Egyptian papyrus, "Yeah, it's over there." She takes Alya and Brianna over to it. They look at it, Marinette trying to see the significance, Alya looking bored. Brianna glanced at Alya's bag hoping that there'll be an opportunity for her to get her book back. It's already a few minutes and Marinette was still trying to find proof of Ladybug on the Egyptian papyrus.

"You sure it's in here Mari? Cause it feels like we've been here for hours." Brianna said, feeling a little tired, "Come on, tell me what it is already!" Alya said, getting impatient, "No, no, cause... it wouldn't be a surprise then..." Marinette said before mutter something under her breath. Jalil and his father were walking towards the three girls, "I'm telling you, father, it's right there in the hieroglyphics." He pushes Marinette aside. "Excuse me. There, as you know, the one with the scepter is Tutankhamun, the first. And there, opposite is Nefertiti, his princess. There are exactly one hundred mummies beside them. She died several years before him, and the sun god Ra took her as his goddess." "Yes, I know all that." Mr. Kubdel said, "I'm the director of this exhibition, remember?"

"Then you also know that Tutankhamun wanted to bring his princess back to life, by offering the sun god a new wife. This seemed to illustrate the ritual he devised. Nobody has ever fully deciphered the hieroglyphics, but I have! It's a magic chant that needs to be recited in order to complete the ritual! I'm sure of it!" "He kinda reminds me of someone else with crazy ideas." Marinette mutters to Brianna, loud enough for Alya to hear. Brianna pretends to think as she placed her finger on her chin, "Hmm, now let's see who that could be." Brianna smirks at Alya and said, "Any ideas, Alya?" "You might think my theories about Ladybug and Loup Gris are crazy, but you watch, girl, I'll prove you wrong." Alya said with confidence.

"Jalil, these types of frescoes are almost always the illustration for a legend. They called it a legend for a reason..." Mr. Kubdel said, beginning to walk away, Jalil ran after him, stopping him in his tracks, "That's what everyone thinks. But I know it's real. I can prove it!" "Really? Exactly how are you going to prove it?" "I just need to get my hands on Tutankhamun's scepter and recite the spell!" He replied, his hand reaching for the priceless artifact behind his father. His father grabbed his hand just in time for him not to touch it.

"Are you serious? Don't even think of touching that scepter. I'd lose my job on the spot. It's a priceless historical object! Not a toy!" Mr. Kubdel said and walks away. "Come on, dad! We have to try out the spell! What if Tutankhamun had found out how to bring people back to life?" Jalil said, "Listen, Jalil! That's enough! Get your head out of those papyrus scrolls and focus on the real world! This one!" He storms off, leaving Jalil drops his papers, looking sad.

"Uhhh... ahhh..." Marinette tries to figure out the significance of the symbols, making Alya and Brianna bored as Brianna yawns, Loona pops out of Brianna's purse and whispers, "Brianna, look!" Brianna saw Alya yawns and takes the history books out of her bag. Her eyes widen and was about to stop her, but Marinette beat her to it. "Gah! Put that down! I'm gonna show you the secret I found out about Ladybug!" "'Bout time. This better be blog-worthy." "Where is it Mari?" Brianna asked, trying to distract Alya.

Marinette was trying to find it again, "Uhhh.. ahhh..." "This thing's making my eyes hurt." Alya starts to get the books out again, but Brianna stops her. "Wait! I'm sure it's in there. We just have to keep looking." Brianna said, "Look closely! It is in there." Marinette said then she sees something behind them "Huh?" They turned around to see a person dressed up as a Pharaoh. One of them Museum employees ran in and blows a whistle, "Hey, you!" "Thoth, give me time!" His face changes.

He traps the employee and the civilians in golden bubbles. Marinette, Brianna and Alya avoid one as the two history books fell out of Alya's bag. Alya grins and gets out her smartphone. "Alya, hide!" Marinette shouted before ducked to avoided one of the bubbles. "Get out of here, faster!" Pharaoh said and the bubbles fly out of the room. Brianna hides behind the displays and quickly runs to the corridor without the Pharaoh notice her. She opens her purse to let Loona out. "Time to transform!"

"Loona, Let's Hunt!"

Loona enter the blue moon pendant as the blue moon changes into a full moon, Brianna raised her hands and moves across her face, a black mask appears as her ocean blue eyes turns pale yellow like a wolf's, she threw her left arm to the side as black and grey sparkles appeared from her fingertips before she clenched her hand into a fist as it travels down her body as a new outfit appeared on her. She moves her hands over her head as a pair of wolf ears appeared on her head as black and gray sparkles appear around her hair tie and it disappears as her hair is magically let down, covering her ears. The black and gray sparkles form a wolf tail and on her right hip appears an swirling object and turns into a bullwhip. She swipes her hands left and right as it leaves behind wolf claw marks in the air, before swiping her claws down, leaving the X claw marks in the air with a smirk.

Loup Gris heard the alarm go off, she saw the bars coming down and quickly slides under a gate just as it closes and saw Ladybug appeared next to her, "You know that's considered stealing." Ladybug said with a smirk, "Actually, I'm taking back what rightfully belongs to me." Pharaoh said, "Maybe if you were the real Pharaoh, which you're not!" Loup Gris said as she and Ladybug took out their weapons. "Look at Ladybug and Loup Gris go! If I'm dreaming, don't wake me up!"

Ladybug and Loup Gris tries to shoo her, but Alya got the wrong idea, "Ladybug and Loup Gris waved at me! No way!" Alya said excitedly. Ladybug uses her yoyo to attack the Pharaoh, but he grabs the yoyo and swings Ladybug away, making her crash into a wall. While he was distracted, Loup Gris wraps her whip around Pharaoh's wrist and tries to pull him back, but he uses his strength to pull and swings her into the wall and falls next to Ladybug.

"Sekhmet, give me your strength!" Pharaoh said and his face changes. He uses his strength to bend the bars, but Cat Noir appears in front of him. "How nice of you to hold the door open for me!" He attacks the Pharaoh, but the Pharaoh grabs him and throws him into a coffin. "Cat Noir!" Loup Gris shouts worryingly, "Enjoy your coffin!" Pharaoh laughs. Alya's recording Ladybug and Loup Gris as they tried to open the coffin to free Cat Noir. "This is hecka crazy! Keep your eyes peeled!" She turns her head to see the Pharaoh standing over her. "Hiya!" Alya greeted in a nervous voice. Pharaoh places his hands on Alya's face, "Your face. Fate has placed you on my path. Come with me!" He slings her over his shoulder and walks out. "Hey! Hands off the threads. I can walk myself!"

"Seriously?!" Ladybug sighs, "Let's just get this cat out of there." Loup Gris sighs, the two managed to open the coffin and runs after the Pharaoh, "Let her go!" Ladybug said, "Hiding behind an innocent bystander! You're weak, Pharaoh!" Cat Noir said, "I'm way more powerful than you are." Pharaoh said and he uses his strength to close the bars and walks away. "And don't forget! All the latest behind-the-scenes are on my blog!" Alya said, slightly nervous. "That Alya is one brave chick." Cat Noir said, "No kidding." Loup Gris said, "If by brave, you mean bossy, feisty, and bold? Yup, that's her! Come on, get us out of here, Cat Noir!" Ladybug said.

"Cataclysm!"

Cat Noir uses his Cataclysm to break the bars and the three escapes. "How are we gonna find them?" "Alya's got a livestream on her blog!" Ladybug said as she plays the video from the screen of her yoyo. "Hi, everyone! Alya here, liveblogging from the shoulder of the terrifying villain! Huge scoop to come, stay tuned! Alya said from video. "Man, even in danger she still records what's going on." Loup Gris said. Cat Noir saw his Miraculous blinks and said, "Uhh, you two go ahead. I'll join you as soon as my Miraculous is charged up again." "Hurry up. It's gonna take both of us to defeat him." Ladybug said, "Later, kitty." Loup Gris said, before they run separate ways.

"Hold on, Alya." Ladybug mutters, her gaze on the video. After Cat Noir run off, she and Loup Gris started watching the livestream in order to find out what's going on and the plan they need to get Alya back safe and sound. "Don't worry, LB. We'll get her back." Loup Gris said, filled with determination. Ladybug nods and two accidently runs into a time bubble, which traps them together. "Whoa!" Ladybug cries, "Oh, no, we ran right into one of those time bubbles!" Loup Gris said as she and Ladybug pound on the bubble.

In the outside view; Loup Gris's voice is in slow motion, "We've got to get out of this!" "Ladybug, Loup Gris, this is Alya! I just found out I'm the sacrificial offering to the sun god! Please hurry!" Alya said from video, very scared, Ladybug and Loup Gris are worried for their friend, "Hold on, Alya." Ladybug said, in the outside view, she and Loup Gris starts running inside the bubble; slow motion as she said, "We're nearly there!"

Soon enough, Cat Noir arrives and bursts the time bubble Ladybug and Loup Gris were trapped in. "Whoa!" Both girls shouted and Cat Noir catches them. "Thanks for waiting around for me!" "Thanks for freeing us, kitty." Loup Gris said with gratitude, "Come on, we've gotta find the hidden akuma and free it before he sacrifices that poor girl!" Ladybug said. They ran upstairs and arrive at the front door and see rows of mummies. "I don't see her or Pharaoh." Ladybug said.

"Maybe we'll get a better view from the rooftop." Loup Gris suggested. They reach the roof and Cat Noir spots them, "Over there!" They saw the ritual starting and watched Alya struggled to break free from Pharaoh's iron grip. She stops when she sees two figures in the papyrus, "Whoa, back up! Who're those goddesses, one with the black spots and the other with the ears, there on your papyrus!"

She turns his head at the papyrus and starts recording, "Ladybug and Loup Gris, my sworn enemies! My nemesis may have kept me from carrying out my ritual 5000 years ago, but they will not stop Nefertiti from coming back to me this time!" Pharaoh said, "Did you say... Ladybug and Loup Gris 5000 years ago?!" Alya asked in shock, Ladybug, Loup Gris and Cat Noir are shown watching the video, they are also surprised when they heard what Pharaoh said.

"Everyone does have a past they can learn from." Ladybug said in surprise, "Well, you two don't look a day over 3000." Cat Noir said, "Thanks, it's a new face mask I've been using lately." Loup Gris joked as she flipped her hair over her shoulder. "Now you know why I'm so much wiser than you." Ladybug said, "Well, dogs are known to be a little smarter than cats." Loup Gris said, making Cat Noir pout.

"Oh, sacred Ra, god of the sun, I Pharaoh, offer to thee a pure soul! The sacrifice for the return of Nefertiti!" Pharaoh said, starting the ritual, the Louvre pyramid lights up, and as he speaks, it shoots a beam into the sky that starts spreading darkness. "I bow to you and present this gift with my mummies! In company, we pray to you the safe return of princess Nefertiti! Awaken, Nefertiti! Awaken! Awaken, Nefertiti! Awaken!" "Awaken, Nefertiti... Awaken..." The mummies chant, "Ladybug! Loup Gris!" Alya cries out as the mummies carry her toward the pyramid. "We've gotta save her before he completes the ritual, or Alya will be gone, forever!" "What should we do?" Cat Noir asked, "Loup Gris, use your power and keep the mummies distracted. One that's done, Cat Noir will hold them back while I take on Pharaoh." Ladybug said, Loup Gris nodded and activates her power.

"Full Moon!"

Soon enough, Loup Gris turns into a wolf. "Why do we have to deal with these freaks while you get to slip calmly round back?" Cat Noir asked, "Because I'm the only one who can capture his akuma, and because you are the bravest one out of both of us!" She winks, "Sure." Ladybug swings away. "I know you don't really think that, but I'll pretend you do." He sighs before turning to Loup Gris and pets her head, "Good luck." "Awaken, Nefertiti, Awaken... Awaken, Nefertiti, Awaken..." The mummies chanted but stops once they heard a wolf howling nearby.

They spotted Loup Gris with Cat Noir on top of the light post. "Hey there, you bunch of bandages! What do you say we wrap this up!" "Cat Noir! Loup Gris!" Alya said in relief. "Seize them!" Pharaoh orders and the mummies run after them. "Is that really as fast as you can go?" Cat Noir questions as he jumps between lamps with Loup Gris running next him on the ground.

"Wait, this looks... like a trap!" As Ladybug saves Alya, Loup Gris turns back into her human self and she and Cat Noir kept the mummies busy. That is until they were surrounded by the mummies. "What the?" He sees three mummies about to throw a car at them, but Ladybug wraps her yoyo around his ankle, he held Loup Gris close to him as Ladybug pulls them to safety. "Loup Gris! Cat Noir! This way!" The heroes ran towards a bus with the mummies chasing after them. Loup Gris jumps to the other side of bus as Ladybug runs into a bus and Cat Noir slides under the bus to the other side. The mummies follow her on, and she exits. Cat Noir use his staff and Loup Gris use her all her strength to turn the bus on its side.

"We have to save Alya before she reaches the circle of darkness!" Ladybug said and the three ran towards the Pharaoh and the pyramid. "You will not stop me from bringing Nefertiti back! I'll finish you off! Anubis, bring me mummies!" He shoots beams at Ladybug, Cat Noir and Loup Gris, but they dodge them. Ladybug uses her yoyo and Loup Gris uses her whip to grab the Pharaoh, basically both of them tying his arms to his sides while Cat Noir climbs up the pyramid and tries to rescue Alya. "Horus, give me your wings!" He lifts himself, Ladybug and Loup Gris into the air. While airborne, Ladybug uses this opportunity to grab the Pharaoh's pendant and drops it. "Cat Noir! The pendant! That's where the akuma is!" Loup Gris called out as she and Ladybug jumps off from Pharaoh.

Cat Noir jumps off the Louvre, catching Loup Gris in his arms, putting her safely on the ground while Ladybug uses her yoyo to safely float down to the ground. They run for the pendant, but the Pharaoh lands on it. "Sekhmet, give me your strength!" He uses his strength to make a sonic wave that knocks Ladybug, Cat Noir and Loup Gris off their feet, and the mummies surrounds them. "It's over." Pharaoh told them as he grabs the pendant. "Ladybug, Loup Gris, save me!" Alya shouted as she's coming closer and closer to the circle of darkness, "Oh, Ra, god of the sun, accept this humble offering and return the princess to ME!"

"Lucky Charm!"

The Lucky Charm gives her... "A Loup Gris outfit?" She asked in confusion. "That's our last hope?" Cat Noir asked with a raised eyebrow, "Yeah, I know I look cool and all, but how is that gonna help us?" Loup Gris asked skeptical, Ladybug uses her thinking vision, and the pendant in the costume appear. She whispers her plan to Loup Gris, who nodded in agreement and quickly hides her miraculous after she took the box from Ladybug, who later stepped up. "This offering isn't good enough for Nefertiti!"

"Hey! Thanks a lot!" Alya said in annoyance, making Loup Gris facepalm herself. "Too late, Ladybug! The ritual has begun!" Pharaoh said, "Set Alya free and sacrifice Loup Gris instead! Wouldn't that be the sweetest revenge? 5000 years later! After all, she and I are the ones who kept Nefertiti from you all these years!" Pharaoh pondered on the thought, "It's true that she'll make a much more precious offering than this mortal." He held out an open hand which Loup Gris takes. "Horus, give me wings!" He flies with Loup Gris up to Alya.

"Seriously?" The Pharaoh throws her off the beam. She falls, slides down the pyramid, and lands safely on the ground. "Excuse you, but I make excellent sacrificing material!" Alya said sassy. Once Pharaoh placed Loup Gris on the beam, she sighs and said, "You win, Pharaoh..." She pretends to take off her pendant, then tricks the Pharaoh and grabs his pendent. "You want my Miraculous? Go get it!" She throws the fake pendant, the Pharaoh grabs it, but he sees it's fake.

"A toy? You tricked me!" Pharaoh shouted in anger, Loup Gris punches the Pharaoh's pendant and breaks it, releasing the akuma, then slides down the pyramid and lands on the ground. "No more evil doing for you, little akuma." Ladybug said as she opens her yoyo, "Time to de-evilize!" She catches the akuma, "Gotcha!" She turns the akuma into a normal butterfly, "Bye bye, little butterfly. Miraculous Ladybug!" She throws the Lucky Charm into the air. It explodes into a blast of energy that turns everything back to normal. The Pharaoh turns back into Jalil. "What happened?"

Ladybug gives Alya her phone back and her partners ran up to her. "Thanks, Ladybug! But, uh, I still gotta ask: how old are you, really?" "Um, much older than a high school student, that's for sure!" Ladybug said and swings away. Alya turns to Loup Gris with excitement in her voice, "What about you Loup Gris? How old are you exactly?" "Like Pharaoh said, Ladybug and I were his enemies 5000 years ago, so that's how old we are and that we've been partners for a very long time." She said and ran off.

Loup Gris went into the museum's restroom and changed back into Brianna, she leaves the restroom and runs in the hallway to find both Marinette and Alya together. She ran towards them with a relieved smile, and they welcome her with a hug. "Where have you two been?" Alya asked as they pulled away from the hug, "You won't believe this! I got mummified!" Marinette replied in fear, "Really?! Me too!" Brianna said with widen eyes.

"Hope you two weren't the ones trying to swap me for Nefertiti! Creepy!" "Wait, what?" Brianna asked shocked, "What?! You were almost... sacrificed?" Marinette asked scared, "If it hadn't been for you two, I'd never have found out that Ladybug and Loup Gris are at least 5000 years old!" "Hey! What are friends for?" Marinette said, Alya grabs her bag, and they head out. "I still don't get it though, what were they doing with the tenth grade history textbooks?" "Uh, they... they probably had to find out what's been going on for the past 50 centuries!" Marinette said nervously, "Yeah, I mean, it's tough staying in the loop, right?" Brianna said, "You're probably right." Alya said, "Hey, Ladybug and Loup Gris's textbooks! They're gone!" Brianna smiles, happy she got her book back.

It was nighttime and Brianna, already in her pajamas, her hair is braided and her sleepmask resting on her head, is resting on her bed against her pillow, holding her open textbook with Loona sitting on top of it, "I don't get it. I know I'm not 5000 years old, so... who exactly was that Loup Gris in the papyrus?" "Kwamis like me and superheroes like you have always existed!" Loona replied, "So... that's not you in the papyrus either?" Brianna asked, pointing at the picture of the papyrus, on it has a familiar wolf kwami, and above it is another kwami she had never seen before. "What do you think?" Loona said, "You don't look 5000 years old to me." Brianna smiles as she uses her finger to pet Loona who giggles.

"Well, I'm not. I'm way older than that. I'm the kwami who's watched over every single Loup Gris since the very beginning." Loona said, "You must know a lot of Loup Gris who came before me, huh?" "Every Loup Gris is different." Loona said. "But you and all the Loup Gris from the past share the similarities though; you're brave, feisty, talented, loyal, strong and cares for your friends, your family and the people around you." Brianna smiles and kisses Loona on her forehead, "You better get to sleep. You have that history test tomorrow." "Oh yeah! Good thing it's on Ancient Egypt." Brianna closes the book and place it on her dresser as Loona lays on her pillow, Brianna turns off the lights and puts on her sleep mask and the two went to sleep.
