Alex POV
As I rushed towards the Eiffel Tower, I noticed that I'm not alone. A bullet whistled in the air. I managed to duck under the bullet's path and land on the roof.
"I thought you were dead." A voice I recognise said. Black Bullet switched his revolvers for his sword and knife.
"Rodrigo." I said as I glanced at my brainwashed friend. I pulled out my eskrima sticks and prepared myself for the fight.
"I don't know how you survived but Hawkmoth will be pleased when I bring him your head." He said and darted forward.
I quickly blocked his sword and jabbed my eskrima at his torso, shocking him. He stepped back and clutched his chest. We continued to exchange blows, our weapons colliding and clashing one another. Rodrigo threw his knife at me. I deflected it with my gauntlet, only to see him jab his sword at my gut. I backflipped out of the way and threw a smoke bomb at his face, blinding him. Whilst he was recovering his sight, I pushed the button on my gauntlet and turned invisible.
"Maldito seas! Where are you?" He roared. He pulled out his revolver and looked around.
When his guard was down, I reappeared behind him.
"Right here, amigo." I said in a taunting manor. He whipped around and tried to shoot me. I caught his arm and threw him over my shoulder. His revolver clattered away from him. Whilst holding him down in an arm lock, I removed the ring from his finger. Rodrigo blinked a few times and took of his mask.
"What the-!? What happened?" He asked as I released him and helped him up.
"Hawkmoth brainwashed you with his ring." I said. Rodrigo clasped my hand and shook it.
"Lo siento, Alex. I let my guard down and allowed myself to get captured." He said.
"It's fine. We need to go and stop the execution." I said.
"Wait. Before you go, there is something you should know. I saw Mayor Bourgeois. He was in the dungeons. I managed to record everything on the camera hidden in my mask. Thankfully, I managed to place the video in to the flash drive before they akumatised me." He said as he gave me the flash drive.
"So I was right to suspect that Hawkmoth framed me. We could use this to our advantage." I said.
"How?" He asked.
I placed my bag on the ground and pulled out a projector set and a laptop I borrowed from the school.
"Help me set this us at the top of Le Grande Paris hotel. I'll explain afterwards." I said with a smirk.
12 minutes later
"Alright. It's done. When I give you the signal, play the video. We're going to expose Hawkmoth for everything he's done. Including making those rings." I said as I returned the flash drive to Rodrigo.
"Let's hope it works. And remember, Hawkmoth's cane controls the rings, since they have akumas inside them." Rodrigo reminded me.
"Got it." I nodded and pulled my hood over my head. With one last nod at each other, I made my way to the Eiffel Tower while Rodrigo set up the video.
