Miracle Box - an MLB rewrite

Wrath

Warning: Slight gore cause Tikki goes absolutely feral

Volpina rolled around on the ground for a while, clutching her chest in pain. Her whimpers and frustrated grunts made it sound like she was trying to keep her heart from ripping out of her chest and bursting. Her skin had paled and her body, when still, quivered. Despite being on the ground and at a disadvantage, no one could touch her. When Ladybug moved Volpina would manipulate the illusions around Chat Noir which, to the boy, made them more petrifying to him. Ladybug wondered if they were even seeing the same thing. It was clear though. Taking a step forward, Volpina would worsen Chat Noir's torment. Based on the sheer petrifaction plastered to his face, Ladybug was scared he might actually hurt himself to try and get out.

Queen Bee couldn't get close to Volpina either. Being the one whole transferred the venom into Volpina's throat, she was practically directly next to her. But Volpina, even with her heart trying to fail her, was clever. She was scaring Queen Bee the best she could, but eventually, Queen Bee had enough of it and went for the dive, attempting to strip her of her necklace.

She certainly wasn't prepared for Volpina to roll over and stab her through the hand with her violin bow. The bow must have been super durable, because it cut right through Queen Bee's hand and anchored it to the floor. Queen Bee's screams echoed through the tunnels of the metro, and then all was silent.

"Back off!" Volpina growled, kicking Queen Bee in the face. She fell back, ripping at her hand which was still skewered.

"Bitch! Your atrocious monster! You're a psycho!" Queen Bee wailed.

"Oh no, I apologize for stabbing you with my bow!" Volpina said sarcastically, "how rude of me. Hold on, I'll right my wrongs as soon as I heal myself from the poison you spat down my throat. It might take a while, hopefully I don't die first. Maybe Ladybug should use her miraculous ladybugs to heal the both of us so we can get this all over with!" Volpina shot Ladybug a nasty glare.

"You'll have to free Chat Noir from these nightmare illusions first!" Ladybug snarled.

"As you wish," Volpina sneered. The illusion of prison bars around Chat Noir faded out. Immediately Chat Noir screamed and gasped, collapsing onto his knees and hiding his head.

"What did you do?!"

"I removed the illusions! Just like you asked!" Volpina said with bitter sweetness.

"Chat Noir! What's happening?!" Ladybug crouched next to him. He shoved her aside and shrunk to the floor. "Chaton?"

"Don't call me that," Chat Noir muttered, his voice deep and choked up.

"Chat-"

"Don't bother with him, he'll need some recovery time. Now use your miraculous ladybugs before I trap both of you in a nightmare."

"Fine." Ladybug said, spinning her yoyo at her side. Volpina yanked her bow out of Queen Bee's hand, earning another sharp cry from her. Ladybug tried to ignore the suffering as she tossed her yoyo in the air and summoned her power of restoration. All damage done to the station was repaired, Queen Bee's hand was as good as new, and Volpina didn't look like she was about to throw up her kidneys.

"That wasn't so bad, was it?" Volpina said, getting to her feet. When Queen Bee tried to do the same, she forcefully shoved her back to the floor without looking at her. "Now, here's the story; Hawkmoth and I have this deal. I get the fox miraculous, but he gets the ladybug and black cat. As you can see, I've gotten what I want, so now... well, you know how this goes."

"You're not taking our miraculous," Ladybug growled.

"Maybe I'll take the bee as a compromise," Volpina threatened, grabbing Queen Bee by her hair and yanking her up on her knees. Queen Bee howled and tried pulling her hair out of Volpina's grasp.
