TOM: Do you understand, Mari?
MARINETTE: I understand, father.
TOM: I know you're scared, but you are strong. Strong to rule the 2 realms when the time comes. Don't worry.
MARINETTE: I won't. I just wish you were here with me and mom.
TOM: I'll always be with you, Mari. Watching over you from afar. I've watched you from the moment my spirit found peace, and I watched you grow from there. I wish I could stay longer, but I can't.
MARINETTE: I understand. Goodbye Father, and thank you.
TOM: Marinette, I may not have much time to instruct you further, but I do have time to tell you the 1 thing I've always wanted to tell you. What is and always will be my greatest creation and accomplishment...is you. Goodbye, sweetie.
(Lord Maksis fades away)
MARINETTE: Goodbye, dad.
Just then, there was a knock on the door.
MARINETTE: Come in.
(Jek appears)
MARINETTE: I take it it's time.
JEK: Indeed it is, my dear. Are you ready?
MARINETTE: As much as I'll probably be. Let's just get this over with.
Jek leads Marinette to the North tower of castle. When they reach it, they see a circle with ancient runes drawn into it. With all the courage she had inside her, Marinette began to walk to the circle.
NESTA: It's time for you fulfill your destiny, Daughter of the Vampire King.
When Marinette had the chance, she used her magic to create a large flash of light to distract Lord Nesta and the other devils around her. After that, she jumped to safety, and transformed.
MARINETTE: MARINETTE, MASTER OF GOOD LUCK!!
(Transformation sequence)
JEK: You double-crossing little brat!
MARINETTE: I won't be giving up without a fight, and I especially won't let you all control my people.
Marinette unleashes a powerful wave of red magic on Lord Nesta and his servants. Some of them got affected, but Lord Nesta and Jek evaded the attack.
JEK: Take her.
Various devils charge and attack Marinette, but she manages to dodge most of their attacks. In the process, she got a scratch on her left arm and right leg, but it didn't stop her. Using her powers, she turned her yo-yo into a staff, and did a spell.
MARINETTE: Crystal Offensio!
Crystal shards are then shot at the devils, destroying some of them.
NESTA: You have your father's fighting spirit, Marinette. Let's see if I can break that spirit.
Before Nesta could attack her, Alya appeared and created an illusion of multiple Marinettes, ultimately confusing Nesta.
ALYA: You will not harm my friend!
MARINETTE: Alya!
JEK: You again! This time, I'm going to make sure you stay dead!
Before Jek could land a blow to Alya, Marinette acted fast, and threw an energy blast at him. Lord Nesta grew impatient, and chose to act.
NESTA: Enough! (throws a wave of energy at Marinette)
When Marinette was down, some of Lord Nesta's loyal subjects took Alya hostage, and others took Marinette to the circle to complete the ceremony. Before she made it to the circle, Loewen whistles and creates shadow dogs to attack Lord Nesta's subjects.
LOEWEN: Sorry to interrupt, but no one is to lay a hand on Lord Maksis' child!
With Marinette and Alya free, they double-teamed on Lord Nesta and Jek before teleporting back to the sacrificial tower of the castle. As soon as they reached the place, Loewen, Lord Nesta and Jek followed behind them. Lord Nesta was about to grab Marinette when 2 clouds of black energy gets in front of him. The cloud lands on the floor, and reveals Adrien, Nino, and Nathaniel.
NATHANIEL: Marinette, Alya, are you both hurt?
ADRIEN: Don't worry!
MARINETTE: How did you find me?
As Lord Nesta was about to grab her again, another cloud of black energy appears in front of him before landing on the floor. It reveals, Urie, Mage, and Shiki.
MAGE: Back off, pal.
URIE: How dare you lay hands on our butterfly?
SHIKI: You're going to pay dearly for that.
Before Alya or Marinette knew it, Jek appeared to the right side of Alya.
MARINETTE: Alya, look out! (pushes Alya out of danger, but gets taken hostage by Jek)
JEK: I don't think you'll be leaving just yet. We were just getting started with the ceremony. (laughs evilly)
The guys' song for Marinette (Nino doesn't sing in it):
As the end of the song, Marinette cries over how heartfelt it was.
MARINETTE: You guys...
NESTA: Disgusting. Destroy the vampires! Prove our superiority once and for all!
As Lord Nesta commands, his devil subjects and servants charged at Adrien and the others.
What will happen next??
