Lila Adela Rossi was so far beyond livid that she didn't know what to call it. That bimbo tabloidist of a blogger had recorded and POSTED a video of them destroying the designer's works! Now Lila not only was getting sued, but she had lost her job as well, as Gabriel said he refused to allow his company to drown due to the actions of his son and employee! She was only lucky that she had made enough money working for Gabriel and saving it up that she had been able to pay her fines without her mother finding out about what she did! When Bustier made her announcement about how they would have two new students, a boy from Gotham, America, and Gabriel Agreste's nephew were both transferring in, she saw her chance to really take control back. If she could get the nephew pressured under her thumb even half as well as she had gotten the son, she would be set. So she set her plan into motion. Loudly announcing how she and Damian Wayne had dated when they were thirteen, and parted on amicable terms, how she was currently dating Felix Graham de Vanily but he was so shy and quiet that he might just pretend not to know her. The class ate it up, even as the rest of the school, including two of her former minions, glared at her every time they saw her. Not to worry, though. Her reign over Bustier's class was just as certain as ever. She just hadn't counted on the Gremlin of London being so scary or the Ice Prince of Gotham being the new student.

The class had been buzzing with the need to scream at Marinette when she got back. How cool was it that she was MDC? Why didn't she tell them? What could they convince her to make them next? Matching t-shirts saying that they were her friends from before she got famous? They were so caught up in their gossip that they didn't notice the two new kids come in (nor their fight to sit next to Marinette's empty seat), and barely noticed when Marinette walked in. The class was too shocked by her change to say anything they had been planning on. No, they were too shocked to speak until Lila came in and Marinette verbally attacked her.

Marinette's eyes were friged as the class scrambled. They had never considered the beast they would release in the girl made of sunshine. But they forgot sunshine could shine too bright and harsh, causing fires, droughts, and cancer from too much exposure. It could contain its heat and leave the world to freeze. Ra's Al Ghul wasn't the only Ra to ever be feared.
Marinette was calm when she pulled out her tablet, kindly explaining the class's current curriculum to the two boys, as well as different things about the school. Madame Bustier relaxed, convinced that Marinette had just been a little bitter still about her work being destroyed, and her class was half convinced that they imagined the girl's terrifying smirks.
None of them noticed the cruel light that lit up her eyes when the bell rang, the students rushing to their lockers to get their things. Kim quickly realized that the homework he had definitely done for Madame Mendeleiev wasn't in his locker, Rose was dismayed to learn that the bucket of glitter Adrien had been keeping for her in his locker had spilled out, while Adrien was horrified that everything he needed for the rest of the school day was covered in glitter! He'd even have to return home for lunch, as his own lunch was a casualty of the glitter spilling. Alya's phone was missing when she went to retrieve it from Madame Mendeleiev's confiscating it the other day, and Markov was nowhere to be seen, nor was he answering Max's calls.
Kim was given detention, Mendeleiev was tired of him trying to get out of her work. Alya was threatening to sue the school- until Mendeleiev informed the girl that she had released the phone to her parents the day prior, as that was what the class president recommended. No one knew where Markov went, and Adrien was furious when he learned that Felix would be allowed to eat with Marinette at her family's bakery rather than having to eat a meal prepared by their personal chef.
