Miraculous: Tales of Spider-Tsundere and Time Thumper

Chapter 6: Wild Cards: Part 1

Lea was in a panic; her heart was pumping fast and she took small but fast breaths. She felt like she was going to faint.

"What cards are you talking about?" Isabelle asked.

"My special handmade cards! Reverser and Dessina-I mean, Evillustrator!" Lea exclaimed, checking her pockets again. "I had them before in my pocket, but they're not here!"

"Why did you had the Evillustrator and Reverser cards in your pocket at all?" Macy asked. "How could you lose them? We were normal before deciding to go on patrol."

"Macy has a point, Lea." Isabelle added. "And there's no way you could lose them when you were Time Thumper." She then looks at Fluff, Longg, Snowflake, and Loli. "Right?"

"No, not really." Longg said. "Whatever stuff you have on you, it can't fall out when you're transformed."

"But they could get relocated." Fluff added. "Since Lea has pockets when she's Time Thumper, the cards could be rearranged to her pockets and she probably dropped them without her knowing."

"All right. Let's say if it is true," Macy said, going along. "When and where did the cards get dropped? And how?"

As Macy and Isabelle were trying to figure out Fluff's theory, Lea tries to remember what happened. And how she lost her cards.

Isabelle then had a theory. "This might sound, what's the word...Preposterous." She said. "But... If your cards were reposition when you were Time Thumper, what if the cards fell out during our first fight with Black Art at the Museum?"

Lea gasped, not liking this one bit.

"What makes you say that, Izzy?" Macy asked.

"I remember seeing a bit of Black Art when he covered us in that smokescreen of his. It looked like he was picking up something but I couldn't tell what it was." Isabelle said.

Macy agreed with Isabelle's theory, she can put two and two together that quickly. "If that's true," she said. "Then that means..."

"While Black Art escaped, he took the cards." Isabelle said. "And with his powers to make sentient artifacts and replica come to life, well as painting as weapons..."

Lea realized what Isabelle was talking about. "He could trademark the cards and bring Evillustrator and Reverser to life."

"So, what you're saying is...Not only did we let this black and white mime reject get away, but we also unintentionally gave him more allies?!" Macy stated.

This did not help the blonde teen at all. "WHAAAAA?! I HELPED A SUPER VILLIAN!? WHAT HAVE I DONE?!"

Meanwhile...

In his hideout, Black Art ponders his next move. He sees his creations as the cards were still covered in black paint. "These cards were not worthless after all..." He said. "But still though, that spider girl has spunk. She was able to get back up after having her ears scrambling her brain with high sonic velocity." He then smiles and laughs maniacally. "She will make a fine addition to my growing army. With her savage aggressive fighting, I could have the ultimate weapon! And with the Mona Lisa now in my grasp, Parisians will kneel before me, as I blanket the city into a black painted chaos!" He laughs maniacally again as he sees a picture from a new article about Spider-Tsundere, and paints it. Unfortunately, the article didn't come to life. Angry, he rips the paper to pieces. "I must trademark Spider-Tsundere into my forces!"
