Lie Breaker

School
School is much better now, now the only people who try to annoy me are Adrien and Alya, Adrien mad that I got Ladybug to expose Lila and Alya mad that I wont forgive her, Alya still hasn't apologized. But it should be fine I discussed with Mr. Damocles a solution for all the issues at present, transfer me to a different class. He readily agreed and moved me into Ms. Mendeleiev's class. Ever since I've moved Alyas only been able to annoy me at lunch time and the people in Mendeleiev's class are super nice and I've already made a couple of friends. 

Guardian
Guardian training with Master Fu is going well, ever since defeating Gabriel Agreste I keep him on me same as Tikki. I've made some good progress and we even manged to fix the Peacock Miraculous and let Duusu reunite with the other Kwamis. There's only one last thing I have to do as Ladybug and not as the Guardian, Gabriel Agreste's trial.

The Trial
I come to the Trial as Ladybug making sure to keep the Butterfly on me just in case. I'm directed to sit down next to the prosecution, I may not know much about law but I don't think that's right, "Am I supposed to sit here" I ask the women on my left "Oh yeah I forgot this was your first hero trial your such a good hero I always forget that due to it mostly being akumas you don't have experience in some of the more niche areas. I'm from America I specialise in getting villains who hide their identity in prison. In cases like this the hero responsible for defeating the villain is next to the prosecutor." She explains "Huh I guess that makes sense" "Oh and one more thing, my daughter is a huge fan can you sign this out to Sophie" She brings out a small picture of me and shows a pen, she was prepared for this. I quickly sign 'To Sophie I wish you luck in all pursuits - Ladybug ' "There we go you know I never got your name" "oh my name is-" "Order in the caught" I notice Gabriel being brought in handcuffed, he looks very confidant, he probably has the best lawyers money can buy. "Gabriel Agreste you stand accused of being the supervillain terrorist Hawkmoth how do you plead." "Not guilty" he says calmly, I glare at him "The first part of this trial shall be proving or disproving this accusation. Prosecutor Mary you have the stand" "Thank you your honour. As we all know Ladybug has been protecting the city for awhile now from Hawkmoth, firstly as a hero what reason would she have to lie because of that I'd like to call Ladybug to the stand" I go to the witness stand a man comes up to me "Do you swear to tell the truth and nothing but the truth" "I swear to only tell the truth as long as it does not lead to my identity being exposed" he nods a couple of people shocked at what I said judging from Marys nodding I'm guessing this isn't uncommon for other heroes, not that I've meet any outside my team. "Now Ladybug how did you discover Hawkmoths identity." "When Hawkmoth akumatized one Marinette Dupain-Cheng. Her akumatized form betrayed Hawkmoth taking his Miraculous and revealing his identity. When she willingly let me de-akumatize her she forgot his identity but by using some potions I was able to bring back the memory learning his identity." "That's all your honour" "Defendant do you wish to cross examine the witness" "I-uh yes your honour" he walks towards me nervous, probably because he is defending a villain. "Ladybug, how did this Marinette Dupain-Cheng betray Hawkmoth you previously said akumas where under Hawkmoths control so how did Marinette break this when no one else could" "Simple she did just not the way you think, Hawkmoth uses his powers to turn you into your worst self usually that enough for the akuma to listen to him, if they don't Hawkmoth can threaten to take their powers away or cause mental anguish to make them listen. It just so happens that factor aligned which allowed Marinettes worst self to attack and betray Hawkmoth due to her extreme dislike for the villain. Any further questions" "N-n-no" he squeaks back next to Gabriel Agreste looking terrified having to sit next to him. "Your honour may I offer a quick and easy solution to this part of the trial" "What do you have in mind." "By using the Butterfly Miraculous I can give someone here the abilities to force out truth" "Like Hawkmoth" The judge says suspiciously "No, Hawkmoth used his power for evil corrupting and manipulating, by using it for good I can empower and encourage." "I'll allow it" I smile "Tikki, Nooroo Unify" I transform into Bug Monarch. I take a butterfly out of the cane I now have and imbue my positive energy into it I send it to Mary "Confessor I am Bug Monarch, please accept my powers to help you do your duty, You'll be able to make anyone you point at confess their greatest crime" Mary's eye widen in shock "Wait so I have a choice" "Yep, though I do recommend accepting as it will speed the trial up." "Ok, I accept" a light purple light engulfs her and brings forth confessor considering she American I took inspiration from the blind lady. "Feel free to test out your powers on me" I say aloud everyone even Hawkmoth looks shocked. "A-are you sure" "Completely" She points at me a beak firing from her finger and hitting me "My greatest crime was when I broke into the Agreste Mansion to steal the magical object Gabriel Agreste had in his possession" Gabriel enraged speaks up "Your the one who stole my book and brooch" only just realising what he said. I gesture towards him and Confessor takes the shot "Nrgghhh Argghh I, terrorized nnggggghhh Paris using the Butterfly Miraculous to transform people against their will." he says everyone starts yelling at the confirmation "Order, order in the caught that's all I needed to hear. Now for the next part of the trial the sentence. La- I mean Bug Monarch can you deakumatize Mary" "yep though for non-evil users the correct term is deempower" I say as I take the powers away from Mary "Huh I remember everything" "Oh yeah the loss of memory is when your transformed self is to different from your regular self" Mary nods in understanding "Thank you Ladybug I just need to ask what are the chances of Hawkmoth regaining his power" "Zero, the power is in the brooch, and he is never getting it again." "In that case I've reached a verdict Gabriel Agreste you will serve Life in prison, and as for your ally Nathalie Sancoeur when she is proved to be so will receive 50 years in prison" That's it. Its done Gabriel Agreste is finally defeated.
