"No such luck?" Chat asks while the two look at the four pieces of the disc in confusion. "I don't get it, I watched the akuma fly into this just before it was torn into two," Purple Tigress states when Ladybug grabs her tape. "We need to tape it together and then use Cataclysm on it," She explains but before we can Captain Hardrock and Guitar Villain fly down and attack, forcing us to run away.

Once out of their range, LB instructs Purple Tigress to keep them at bay. Chat, LB, and I start taping the disc back together while Purple Tigress uses Clout, sending both Captain Hardrock and Guitar Villain flying high into the sky as she shouts "Quit blaming each other and talk it out already!" 

With the disc taped together Chat Noir cataclysms it and finally the akuma comes flying out, ready to be de-evilized. Quickly miraculous ladybug is activated and everyone is safe again, leaving the four of us to pound it. We quickly stop by Liberty so Ladybug can hand over the magical charms to Anarka and Jagged. "Anarka, Jagged, I wish I could help you work things out but that's beyond my powers. However, these magical charms will protect you from Shadowmoth in the future," The miraculous warns us that time is short and we head out with parting advice to Juleka to use her voice when she needs to.

Back on Liberty Anarka and Jagged had gone back to arguing when Juleka finally snapped, covering both of their mouths and shouting "Stop! You two are going to apologize now and make up by talking not blaming and yelling. No one cares about who did what, it's in the past," They both shrink at her words before apologizing and I give Juls a proud smile. "You rock Juls," I say soon turning towards the grown-ups who were now arguing about who was taking the blame and shake my head in amusement.

The party kicks up again and we start having fun, Marinette quickly explains everything to Luka before I talk to him. "I'm really glad to know you weren't trying to avoid me." "Well I couldn't stay away from you for too long, life would be boring," I shoot back jokingly. "You shouldn't say stuff like that, it'll make me fall in love with you more," He jokes back and I will a blush not to creep up on my face. "Buddies?" He asks and I nod, grateful he wasn't pushing. "Buddies," I sigh with a breath of relief, elated that we were able to move past this obstacle and could move forward as friends.
