MeTuber

As Ladybug and Chat Noir made it to the center of town they were able to see the new akumatized villian, a giant walking potato. It had a red "play" button emblazoned on its chest, or at least where its chest would have been if it had a more defined anatomy.

"I'm tired of YouTubers!" it screamed. "I wanted to be a YouTuber, that was my biggest dream! My FORMER friend wanted to try too, so I helped him start a channel. He got more subscribers than I did! I am done with YouTubers, it's all about me! I am MeTuber!"

"You can't say he doesn't have any eyes on him," Chat commented.

Ladybug rolled hers.

"You sure hit a bunch of "like" buttons, don't you?" MeTuber yelled. "You never hit my "like" buttons, so how about all those "like" buttons hit you back? LIKE! LIKE!" MeTuber lifted a wireless mouse and started pointing it at nearby people. With every click, a giant thumb materialized and smashed into them.

"That mouse... it must be where the akuma is," Ladybug informed her partner.

"Right!" Chat Noir extended his baton, flinging himself at their opponent.

"Go get him... Love." Ladybug murmured quietly, now seeing Chat Noir in a new way. She then swung around back of the fight, looking for her opening.

"LIKE! LIKE! LIKE!" MeTuber was throwing attack after attack at Chat Noir, who was batting them away with his baton.

"That's enough!" Ladybug called out, flinging her yo-yo for a hard blow off MeTuber's back.

As MeTuber turned to strike at Ladybug, Chat Noir saw his opportunity to strike. "Cataclysm!"

MeTuber howled in pain and whirled back the other dirrection.

"Lucky Charm!" Ladybug activated her special ability. "A fishing pole?"

"It's a broadcast!" Chat Noir told her.

"Chat." Ladybug growled in an unamused tone, then her face changed. "That's actually a pretty good idea!"

Ladybug drew back her arm as far as it would go, and then flicked her wrist forward. "Here's your click-bait!" The fishing line shot forward and wrapped itself around MeTuber, effectively tying it up.

"Nice one!" Chat Noir complimented his partner's word play.

"I said that for you, you know." Ladybug winked. She jerked back on the fishing pole and caused the hook to bury itself in the wireless mouse, cracking it open and releasing the akuma inside. "No more evildoing for you, little akuma." She swung her yo-yo and captured the purple butterfly, then opened her yo-yo and released the now bright white insect. "Bye, bye, little butterfly." The harmless creature fluttered off into the sky. "Miraculous Ladybug!" Ladybug threw the fishing pole up in the air and it burst into pink sparkles, restoring everything that had been broken during the fight.

The crowd cheered as Ladybug and Chat Noir approached each other for their traditional celebratory fist bump: "Pound it!"

As if on cue, both of their miraculouses began to beep. "Bug out!" Ladybug swung off, using her yo-yo as a grapple. Chat Noir made his exit too, though instead of going the opposite direction as always, he followed her. They weren't holding a secret between them anymore. The two landed in a quiet side street, just around the corner from his house. They took each other by the hand and waited the thirty seconds or so that remained for their timers to tick down. They detransformed, confirming what they already knew. Marinette and Adrien stood hand in hand.

The adults were confused when Adrien and Mari walked in through the front door. They'd begun to worry when the teens took so long on the supposed bathroom trip. A complete sweep had been made of the house, revealing nothing. The parents had been in a panic.

"The akuma snatched us both from upstairs," Mari explained. "Ladybug and Chat Noir rescued us!"

"Those two make an excellent couple," Adrien commented.

"They sure do," Mari agreed.

A/n - I found something fun. Set Google Translate to English->Maori and type "I caught an akuma for you." Then put it back into English and tell me what you got.
