Ladybug hit her head hard against the wall. She felt the pain twitch, but she still got up. Hawkmoth would not win this fight. "You two are still puny little children. You are still weak. Give me your Miraculous... then it will all be over. I will just wish for something and that will be it!", shouted Ultimoth, playing with his staff. Cat Noir growled angrily. "Every wish has a price. Don't you know that?!", Cat Noir wanted to know. "I would pay any price for her," Ultimoth threw back. Her? Who did he mean by that? Ladybug thought. Emelie Agrest? Then she was right. Then Hawkmoth was... Gabriel Agrest. But if that's true... then... Ladybug looked at Cat Noir. Then Adrien's father is Hawkmoth... Her heart stopped for a moment, her head started to spin. No, no, no. That couldn't be true... or could it? "What is your greatest wish? Tell us, you coward!" hissed Chat, clutching his staff tighter. Ultimoth grinned. "Give me your Miraculous, then you'll find out!" he replied and wanted to rush forward to strike, but suddenly someone parried the blow and kicked Ultimoth in the face. Confused, he staggered backwards. A boy in a fox costume and hood stood in front of them. Nino, it flashed through Ladybug and Cat Noir's minds. 


"Who the hell are you?" Ultimoth wanted to know. The Zorro grinned and pointed his flute at him.


"I am The Zorro, and today you will lose, Moth Man," Nino replied, grinning. "We'll see, you fake Rena Rouge-," Ultimoth wanted to say, but the flute stuck out in his eye. "Now Ladybug," The Zorro urged the heroine. Ladybug jumped up, grabbed Ultimoth's staff and hurled it at Cat Noir. "Black Storm!" Chat shouted and destroyed the staff. "Shit, you dirty youngsters," the man grumbled and stood up. "You really think you can beat me?" he wanted to know. He grinned maliciously. "No, you complete idiot," someone else replied. Ultimoth looked up in surprise and spotted Queen Bee on the roof. "Because Ladybug is not alone."

Alya ran through the streets, holding the opened letter in her hand. She couldn't believe it, but yes, the letters on the piece of paper were real. It was written there in black and white.


Ladybug,I'm Nathalie Sanceur. You probably still know me, we met in Tibet. I lied back then. But I don't have much time to explain. Come to the Agrests, here I will end Hawkmoth's game once and for all. Gabriel Agrest is Hawkmoth. And I was Mayura, always by his side. He had done all this for Emelie. Enough talk. If you read this letter, show up here immediately because I don't know if it might already be too late. But the time has come, Gabriel has gone too far. It's time for you heroes to know what his plan is.Come quickly, please!Nathalie


Alya ran as fast as she could through the empty streets of Paris, in the background she heard the noise of the fight and the helicopter flying past. Panting, she arrived at the Agrests' big house. She looked up, frightened. Would this be the end for the Agrests? Determined, she took one last deep breath and rang the bell.

Tick ​​Tock...Tick Tock..."Do you feel guilty, Nathalie?"Nathalie turned around in shock. There was nothing there. Just an empty, white room."Do you feel guilty, Nathalie?"There she was suddenly. Emelie. She was wearing a gown that she had also worn in the hospital."I don't understand...?" Nathalie replied."It's perfectly fine to feel guilty or blame yourself in a situation like this, Nathalie.""What? What...what...do you mean?" Nathalie looked around nervously, but only Emelie was standing in the empty, white room. Her eyes were empty, her voice monotone. It seemed to Nathalie as if her skin was pale, so pale that you could see her veins."The accident""What...?" Nathalie didn't understand. Suddenly images flashed before her inner eye.How Emelie lay in bed and coughed.How she was kept alive artificially by the machine. The beeping rang in her ears.How Gabriel sat next to her, tears rolling down his cheeks."In situations like this, people often blame themselves. Even though they didn't decide anything. Like me, for example. It was my decision, Nathalie."Nathalie turned around again."Was it my decision?""Was it?"Nathalie wanted to reach for Emelie, but she couldn't move.Images appeared again.How she had found the two Miraculous in the snow.How Nathalie had explained the Miraculous to Emelie. How Gabriel and Emelie were happy and thanked Nathalie.Tick tock.Tick tock.TICK TACK.The ticking became louder."Wake up Nathalie""Wake up"

Bathed in sweat, Nathalie woke up with a start. What had that just happened? "Emelie!" she called, but she looked into Ann's worried face. "Are you OK? You were screaming," said Ann and gave her a glass of water. Nathalie came to and nodded. Thirsty, she took a sip. It was just a nightmare, that's it. "Alya is here. Because of the letter," added Ann. Nathalie paused. Alya? Not Ladybug? "Then it's time. The time has come," Nathalie murmured and stood up. "Let's bring the truth to light," she said firmly and left the room.
