Marinette stumbled backwards, her dress caught under her shoes and she fell onto her back. "Kagami, what-" Marinette wanted to know, startled, but Riposte Prime cut her off. "Shut up!" she shouted, a tear rolling down her cheek, looking down at the ground in disappointment. "I just want to talk to you, I don't want to hurt you!" Marinette said and tried to reach for Kagami, but she cut her hand. Marinette cramped up, she had to get out of here! But how could she do that? How were they supposed to transform? Riposte Prime took a step closer and hissed. "I trusted you! You should treat Adrian well when you get together with him! You know how I feel about him!" Kagami interjected angrily. A sob interrupted her. Marinette didn't understand. "I thought..." Marinette hesitated. She hadn't known that Kagami still loved Adrian. "Lila told me everything! I don't want you to just take advantage of Adrian," she whispered as another tear ran down her cheek. "Lila? You don't believe that yourself! She's a huge liar," Marinette objected in disbelief and shook her head. "Adrian lied to me. You lied to me, Lila lied to me...you all lied...why?" Riposte Prime took a furious swing and hit the school wall, which cracked the next moment. Marinette rushed to her side, the dust trickling down on her. "Kagami! Please calm down! Don't let Ultimot take advantage of you," Marinette tried one more time, but it was in vain. 

Riposte Prime lunged and tried to strike at Marinette, but she dodged and the sword only grazed her dress, which was shredded. Marinette gasped but didn't stop running, she ran through the street when suddenly Riposte appeared in front of her. But before she could attack Marinette again, Cat Noir appeared and parried the blow. "Are you all right, Princess?" Chat wanted to know, smiling charmingly. Marinette stopped abruptly and nodded, out of breath. "Go and get yourself to safety, I'll handle this," he grumbled as he knocked Riposte Prime backwards. Marinette thanked him and hid behind the nearest corner. "Tikki! This can't happen! Kagami's only broken, but that doesn't mean Ultimot can take advantage of her!" she whispered. 'We can handle this,' Tikki said, then turned. Cat Noir was having a sword fight with Kagami when Ladybug suddenly appeared and dragged Riposte through the street with her Jojo. "Calm down Kagami, please!" Ladybug tried again, but she didn't listen. "Mi lady, I don't think it's going to work, we have to calm her down like last time, remember?" Cat Noir said, dodging Riposte's punch. "Yes, I remember," Ladybug replied and jumped onto the floor. "Lucky charm," Ladybug shouted and got a red and black spotted heater. "Wow, I'm going to get a backache here," croaked Ladybug and hurled the heater at Riposte Prime.

 But she suddenly held up her hand and shouted: "Lightning dragon". Startled, Ladybug and Cat Noir froze in their tracks as Kagami flitted through the heater as lightning. "How can that be?" wondered Ladybug, shaking her head. How could Kagami have the power of the dragon Miraculous when she wasn't even wearing the Miraculous! "How does Ultimoth do that?" said Ladybug, defending herself with her Jojo against Riposte's quick stabs. Cat Noir rushed at her from behind and shouted cataclysm. Riposte ducked, but Cat Noir rolled away and was about to touch her sword with her claw when Riposte transformed into the wind dragon and hurled Cat Noir against a lantern. The next moment he fell to the ground, causing cracks to appear on the road.

"LADYBUG!" he shouted when he noticed in the corner of his eye that Ladybug was about to pick up the heater, but Riposte Prime rushed forward. "Fire dragon," she hissed. 'Fire...?' she couldn't get any further because Kagami's fire was starting to burn her skin. "NO!" roared Cat Noir as Ladybug screamed in hellish pain and fell to the ground. "Burn," Kagami gasped and brought the sword crashing down on Ladybug's head. Cat Noir scrambled to his feet, he held out his hand and wanted to scream, "Cataclysm," but he felt another wave of energy hit his hand. He struck, though there was still a good bit of air in front of him, but his fist strike created a massive wave of energy that was just as flickering black as the cataclysm, rushing through the air and sending Kagami crashing to the ground. "Ladybug, are you all right?" he wanted to know as he helped his Ladybug up. She nodded weakly. "What... was that...?" she wanted to know. "I...I don't know exactly...but...this is a new power...I think I can set the limits for my destruction like you. Let's call this energy blast...Black Storm," Cat Noir grinned. Suddenly Kagami jumped up and wanted to strike, but Ladybug was faster. She stuffed the heater onto her sword and the next second Cat Noir jumped on top of her and used Black Storm to turn the sword to dust. "No..." gasped Riposte Prime, then she transformed back. A small black butterfly emerged, which Ladybug immediately captured. 


"There's still something going on at school," Cat Noir said, swinging along. "I'll be right there," she said and helped Kagami up. "Sorry, I got acumatized because of my feelings," Kagami said and sniffled. "It's all right, but you should talk to Marinette," Ladybug replied and pulled out the yoyo. "But one more thing, did Ultimoth give you a Miraculous?" Ladybug wanted to know. But Kagami shook her head. Ladybug thought for a moment. "Thank you," then she was gone.

Kagami looked after her sadly and rubbed her finger with her mother's ring. She desperately needed to find Marinette, hopefully she was alright. If not, she would never forgive herself.
