Marinette silences her alarm and stands up.
"Tikki?" she calls out into her room.
Tikki flies over, "Ready!"
"Tikki, spots on!"

Ladybug sits on the edge of the Eiffel Tower, feet dangling over the edge. She's on the very top, near the lightning pole.
After waiting for ten minutes, she's finally joined by Chat Noir.
"Took you long enough," she says, standing up.
"Heh heh... sorry Bugaboo," he says.
Ladybug facepalms, "Don't call me that. And you're ten minutes late!"
"I'm just not used to the patrol schedule," Chat Noir says.
"Whatever," Ladybug mumbles, and she unhitches her yo-yo, and throws it around a chimney a hundred feet below her, "Let's just go,"

Marinette walks into Master Fu's office.
"Chat Noir was late again," she says, sitting down.
"He just needs time to get used to the schedule," Master Fu says, looking up at her.
"It's been two months!" Marinette says. "He's always late!"
"Just give him time," Master Fu says. "On other news, I've figured out how to get the last ingredient!"
"Really!?"
Marinette's whole mood changed in a second.
"Yes," Master Fu says, "Here's what we'll have to do,"

"Mayor Bourgeois?"
The mayor turns around, and sees Ladybug in his office.
"Ladybug?!" he says in shock, "To what do I owe this pleasure?"
"Do you have any solid gold?" she asks. The mayor was not expecting this, "Something that you would be fine never getting back?"
"Umm... yes," the mayor says, "Why do you need gold?"
"Repairs," Ladybug says, shrugging.
The mayor walks out of his office confused.

"Miraculous, repair yourself,"
The peacock miraculous floated into the air and glowed brightly for a couple seconds, then fell to the table.
Marinette and Master Fu smiled. It worked!
Marinette picked up the miraculous and flipped it over. The cracks were gone. She tapped it, and Duusu flew out.
"Ohh... it was a nightmare!" Duusu said, "An evil man used me and someone got hurt!"
"Do you remember who?" Marinette asks.
Duusu shakes his head, "No... I'm sorry,"
"It's okay," Marinette says.
---
"So who will wear it?"
"Me for now. I'll destroy the statue tonight,"
"Very well,"
---
"Duusu, spread my feathers!"
Duuse flew into the broach Marinette wore. She was covered in blue light, which faded in a second.
