Hooded Phantom Rebirth

Season 2: Episode 9

Joseph's POV

I looked at the creature. Where did this thing come from? I thought to myself. The creature began stalking me like I'm it's next prey. I slowly moved my left hand toward my watch. The creature quickly saw this and began running towards me like a feral animal. I frowned and transformed, with no regard for my secret identity. The creature began to jump at me, trying to cut through my suit and probably my skin. We were stuck in an arm-lock, with both me and the Akuma staring at each other. I tried to find a sign that there was any good in the creature. There was none. There was only anger and hatred, in the bright yellow eyes of the creature.

The Akuma began lunging its head towards me, almost like the creature wanted to finish this fight quickly. I shoved the creature, just to get some room. But as I did, the creature ran towards me again. this time I was ready cause as soon as he was running straight towards me, I quickly did a frontflip that was high enough for me to go over the Akuma. As I landed, I turned toward the creature. As soon as I did, the creature struck me and pinned me down to the ground. It had a good grip on me. I looked at the creature and then noticed a bright yellow glow on it's chest. That has to be it. I thought to myself. I frown and growled as I used the strength of my legs to get him off of me.

As I got up, I began to tap into my kwami's destructive powers, leaving me in my Beserk Stage. The creature looked at me and growled. The Akuma ran towards me, while I stood still waiting for my time to strike. And as the creature got to the point of slashing me, I disappeared, leaving a smoke behind. The Akuma looked around confused, but still angry. I started playing games with it. I teleported again and again, leaving the Akuma baffled and confused. I continued doing this until I saw an opening. And when I saw it, I took it.

I took hold of the light that came from its chest. And as I pulled it out, the Akuma yelled in pain. It kept doing that until I pulled it out. I looked at it. It was some kind of gem, with what looked like some kind of demonic eye. The eye kept moving around, trying to look around its surrounding. I frowned as slowly crushed it. But as it broke, a little creature came out of it.

It was a butterfly. But not one I've ever seen before.

But just as it flew away, a yo-yo with black dots suddenly trapped the butterfly. I looked at where that yo-yo came from and saw a figure with a red and black dotted spandex suit of some sort, a mask which only covered the surroundings of her eyes.

And just as her yo-yo came back to her, she manage to some how 'purify' the butterfly. And as the the butterfly left the yo-yo, it changed to a pure white color. And as it flew off I heard the figures soft voice. "Bye- Bye little butterfly," she said before throwing her yo-yo up in the air and saying, "Miraculous Ladybug!"

And as she said that I felt a form of magic against my skin and said to myself, "Creation." I turned around and saw that the damaged buildings were now fixed. I looked at the hand that had the broken gem, and to my surprise the gem some how turned into a necklace, good as new. I turned to see the creature I fought, but instead I saw a confused bystander in his late 20s. I sighed as I gave him his necklace back and webslinged towards the figure.

I landed on the top of a building, looking at her straight in the eye. "So, you must be the new hero people have been talking about. Ladybug was it?" I said. She smiled. "And you must be the hero that mysteriously disappeared. Phantom was it?" She said. I scratched the back of my head and cracked a smiled under my mask. "Yeah.....," I said. She smiled once again. "Well it's good to have back," she said walking to the edge of the building. "We should do this again some time," she finally said before jumping off the rooftop and swinging across the city with her yoyo. I smiled.

"Yeah, we should."
