All across the Atlantis Ocean, in Paris, France, lives 2 teenage superheroes. In their civilian forms, they're just high school students who have different lifestyles. In a bakery lives a kind and talented girl named Marinette Dupain-Cheng. She has a Chinese mother and a French father who own and run the bakery. Her dream is to become a famous fashion designer, and many of her friends believe she has what it takes to achieve it.

However, there's something about her that nobody, not even her family or closest friends knows about. When crime and people need saving, she becomes the superhero known as Ladybug. Elsewhere lives a very rich boy named Adrien Agreste. His father, Gabriel Agreste, is a famous fashion designer, and Adrien usually models for his campaigns and advertisements. His father also makes him do other extracurricular activities that usually takes up his time, such as fencing and Chinese classes.

Much like Marinette, he has his own secret that he keeps, even from his father. When crime comes around, he becomes Ladybug partner, Cat Noir. They both have special jewels that are inhabited by tiny creatures called kwamis that help them transform. Together, Ladybug & Cat Noir use their powers to keep the people of Paris safe from super villains created by their main enemy, Hawkmoth.

After finishing another day of school, Adrien went to the library to complete some of his homework before fencing class started. Then, a new girl named Lila appeared.

"Oh, uh, hi. You must the new girl, Lila, right?" he asked in a polite tone.

"You've heard of me? I'm flattered" she said flirting.

"Can I help you with something?" Adrien asked.

"No, I was just hoping that we could do our history homework together. It's so much fun doing it together, don't you think? (sees Adrien's phone) What's that?" Lila asks.

"Oh, I was just looking at the Ladyblog. Alya uploaded another video of Ladybug and Cat Noir in action," Adrien said.

(Lila notices Adrien daydreaming)

"Uh. A girl doesn't need to wear a costume to be amazing you know," Lila said scooting her seat closer to Adrien.

"Uh, I don't know- I mean, I-," Adrien said.

"So, you've got a little soft spot for the bug, huh?" Lila asks.

"Me? Oh, no! Not at all!" Adrien said.

"You know Adrien, I actually happen to be very close friends with Ladybug," Lila said.

Before Adrien could answer, Chloe, the Mayor's daughter, walked in angrily.

"Oh, Adrien. I've come to rescue you from his peasant" said Chloe before giving him a peak on the cheek.

"We were talking about homework. I wasn't bothering him" said an angry Lila.

"Listen, what-ever-your-name-is, Adrien is mine, and you won't be getting in my way. So, why don't you just wander on home to wherever you live? By the way, I found out that you lied about all those rumors you spread about how awesome your life is. Your popularity is over! As if someone like Adrien would fall for a fake like you. I mean, knowing the famous Ladybug, oh please" said Chloe as she sent the information to everyone in school.

"You WHAT?!?!?!" said Lila before grabbing her books and running off crying.

"Really, Chloe?" said Adrien.

"Trust me, Adrikins. I know as much as you that everyone hates a liar. I mean, thanks to her, Alya's blog is going to be ruined. I'm simply doing everyone a favor" Chloe said before leaving.

Before Adrien could say anything else, his alarm beeped, telling him that his class was about to start. He grabbed his books, and made his way to the boys' locker room.

Elsewhere, Lila was sitting on a bench in the park, remembering what had happened in the library.

"My chances with Adrien ARE GONE. You WILL PAY for what you did, Chloe. I SWEAR IT!!!" yelled Lila as she threw her bag to the ground and crying.

In an unknown location, a circular window opened, and white butterflies began to fly around while an unknown figure was viewing out the window.

"Ahhhh. A girl with a broken heart wanting revenge. Perfect pray for my evil little akuma" said Hawkmoth.

(He uses his dark powers to corrupt a butterfly, turning it into an akuma.) "Fly away my little akuma, and evilize her!" Hawkmoth cried, twirling his cane through the air and bringing it down beside his feet.

As Lila continued to cry, the akuma landed in her bracelet, and something bizarre happened: Lila's head shot upwards & a butterfly-like mask appeared around her eyes. Then a familiar voice soothed its way into her head.

"Shock Wire, I am Hawkmoth." the voice said

"I give the power to get revenge on the girl who ruined your life. No one will ever stand in your way again. All I ask in return are Ladybug & Cat Noir's miraculouses. Do we have a deal?"

"Consider it done, Hawkmoth" said Lila with a villainous smile.

Pretty soon, dark energy surrounded Lila, changing both her clothing and complexion. She wore a dark blue butterfly-shaped mask on her face, & her clothing changed in a dark blue suit. Her lower arms had black finger-less gloves, and her brown boots turned black with a lightning bolt on each of them. On her chest were two lightning bolts crossing. Her bracelet was turned black as well.

Her powers including the ability the fly, electrokinesis, energy absorption, and electro-blast. With her new appearance and powers, Shock Wire begins to set out and find Chloe.

Chloe was in her room, looking for something to wear for an upcoming charity ball when the lights suddenly went out. Then, electricity from the lights began to come out of nowhere, until a figure with lightning bolts circling around her showed up.

"Hello, Chloe. We have somewhere to be and some wrongs to be corrected" said Shock Wire before grabbing Chloe.

By the time anyone came to see what was wrong, Chloe was gone. The police were alerted right away. The Mayor was worried sick, but tried to stay calm until Ladybug & Cat Noir showed up. Then, live video feed showed Chloe was in an electrical cage on the Eiffel Tower, then Shock Wire appeared with a message.

"Citizens of Paris, my name is Shock Wire. Chloé Bourgeois has been trouble for many of the citizens of Paris, including myself and the people of her school. Today, she shall be punished for her wrongs. Ladybug, Cat Noir, if you want Chloe to live so badly, then come to Eiffel Tower. And you better be quick; I'm not a patient girl." (Shock Wire ends the video with evil laughing).

Back at the houses, Marinette & Adrien watched the video, and got ready to transform to save Chloe & stop Shock Wire.

"TIKKI, SPOTS ON!" said Marinette.

"PLAGG, CLAWS OUT!" said Adrien.
