Right where we last left off, Jack sits in front of Emilie, who is alive. "Hi, Mom. Miss me?" Jack asked.  "Jack?  Is that really you?  My little baby boy?"  Emilie asked back.  Jack gets up.  He goes over to a table he has where all his weapons are on it.  He grabs a rusty meat cleaver and slams it on the table.  "Please.  Please, why are you doing this?"  Emilie begged.  Jack walks over to Emilie.  Scrapping the cleaver on the way.  "No!  No, no, no!  Please, Jack!  Don't!"  Emilie begged.  Jack slams the meat cleaver next to her finger.  Scaring Emilie.  As she screams, Jack shows her a picture.  "There.  Me, you, Dad.  I'm your supposed baby boy, Mom."  Jack said.  "You are?"  Emilie asked.  Jack then slaps his Mother across the face.  Scaring and pissing off Nooroo and Duusu.  "You are probably wondering how you got here.  Well, [in flashback] once the Agreste manor was up for sale, I slipped in to get one last thing.  [Jack breaks in late a night.  He presses the buttons on the painting and descends to the basement.  He opens Emilie's coffin and carries his Mother with him.  [Jack walks right into a new scene.  Where Emilie is in this room with some clawers].  I hoped you wouldn't be dead.  If so, then you were useless.  [Emilie gets a pulse on a health machine].  Thankfully, you weren't.  You were just in a coma for the last few years.  [Jack sits down and reads his grimoire].  I spent hours studying.  Trying to find a cure to save you.  When that failed, I chose another way.  [clawers and Jack built a machine].  Since the Peacock blast sent you into a coma, I theorized that using its power can re-awake you.  We worked long hours and long nights.  Eventually, we got it.  [presses button.  The peacock miraculous, now inside the machine, sends blue energy into Emilie's body.  As Jack and the clawers watch, Emilie lets out a powerful gasp.  Waking up].  I did it.  I saved your life.  [end flashback].  Guess you know whose the better son."  Jack mocked.  "Whatever you're doing, you are so grounded.  I swear on it!"  Emilie yelled.  Jack takes the cleaver and puts it right to Emilie's face.  Nearly slicing her in the process.  "Stop it!!!"  Duusu panicked.  "Come on.  I'm not going to kill her.  Why kill her when she's vital to my, master plan?"  Jack asked.  "I am?"  Emilie asked back.  "It's going to lead to some great Mother-son bonding.  I sure can't wait Mommy."  Jack replied.  He kisses Emilie on the forehead.  "Kwamis, move!  We have work to take care of."  Jack ordered.  The kwamis are forced to obey.  Duusu and Nooroo look at the broken Emilie as they are forced to leave her to rot.  Jack slams the door.  Leaving Emilie in the dark.  It cuts outside the base, where Emilie screams for help. 

The next day, we are now with Kagami.  She is about to begin the fencing class she signed up for.  She isn't nervous.  Being a pro back at Adrien's school, she is guaranteed to do great here.  "How are you feeling on the first day?"  Felix asked sitting next to Kagami.  "Well, if it isn't evil Adrien,"  Kagami replied.  "If you still don't want to be friends, I'm not against it,"  Felix said.  "So why talk to me?"  Kagami asked.  "To better know you.  Seriously, these guys here are boring to death."  Felix replied.  "So I'm not boring to you?"  Kagami asked.  "More like, interesting to know more about.  By the way, dig the choker."  Felix replied.  "Don't look at it,"  Kagami demanded.  "As you wish.  Any word on Adrien?"  Felix asked.  "He's fine.  Just, doing some self-improvement to get his list on track.  With rent paid, he seems to be doing better than before."  Kagami replied.  "Thank goodness.  He hasn't contacted me in ages."  Felix said.  "Then go to him in person,"  Kagami replied.  "I can't.  Busy after school."  Felix said.  "What do you do?"  Kagami asked.  "How the tables turned.  Now you want to know more about me."  Felix flirted.  "Ew!!!  You eel!"  Kagami yelled.  Felix giggles like a troll.  Somehow, that makes Kagami slightly giggle, but she hides it.  Soon after, the two of them are ready to fence.  With Felix and Kagami conveniently fighting each other.  "Guess we haven't seen the last of each other,"  Felix said.  "For the record, I'm glad I get to fight you.  I get to make you shut up."  Kagami replied.  "Silent but deadly.  Gotcha."  Felix said trolling her again.  Kagami growls this time.  And thus, the matches begin.  Kagami charges in at full speed.  Ready to dominate Felix.  When she gets close, Felix chuckles.  He dodges her attack, then stabs her with his sword.  "WHAT?!"  Kagami asked shocked.  "Too predictable.  I expected a challenge."  Felix replied.  Kagami gets mad.  Felix smirks some more.  As the rounds go on, Felix absolutely dominates Kagami.  Round by round, he keeps winning.  At the same time, he trolls Kagami and makes her blush red in anger.  This goes on for the next two hours.  "[blows whistle].  That's enough.  Get out of here."  The instructor said.  Kagami bows to her knees in shame.  "[removes mask].  Hey, good game."  Felix said offering her his hand.  Kagami, fueled with rage, slaps it.  She gets up and walks away.  She leaves fencing class that day upset.  "Hey, Kagami!  I was just trying to be a good sportsman."  Felix said.  "Shut it, Felix!"  Kagami yelled.  "Please.  I was just..."  Felix said before getting interrupted.  "You said you were new to fencing!  You told me you wanted to try something Adrien did to relate!  Then magically, you're a pro!  Why lie to me, let alone mock me for it?!"  Kagami yelled.  "Dear, Kagami.  You don't get it.  To be a great opponent, never reveal any of your tricks.  You should be a man of mystery.  Someone unknown to the rest.  Makes you have the upper hand.  If I told you I was good at fencing, you wouldn't be challenged.  Since I didn't, you found someone worthy of fighting."  Felix replied.  "You know... that's actually a smart tactic.  Why tell me your secret?"  Kagami asked calming down.  "Like I said, you're someone I wish to know more about.  Why not show you my trust by revealing a bit of myself?"  Felix asked back.  Kagami gets a little speechless by this.  That's when Felix's phone rings.  It's from Lucy.  "Crap!  I'm late!"  Felix panicked.  "Late for what?"  Kagami asked.  "Ah, remember,"  Felix replied.  "What?  Oh, yeah.  Unpredictable."  Kagami said.  Felix runs off from Kagami.  Rather than being angry at the guy, Kagami slightly smiles at Felix.
