A single person stands with his back to the light, his features indistinguishable. A small green creature floats in front of the silhouette.
"Many centuries ago, magic jewels bestowing extraordinary powers were created. These were... the Miraculous. Throughout history, heroes have used these jewels for the good of the human race. Two of these Miraculous are more powerful than the others; the pin of the Dog, which provides the power of control; and the anklet of the Ferret, which gives the power of future sight. According to legend, whoever controls both these jewels at the same time, will achieve absolute power." What looks like a floating snake is telling the human, it's forked crimson tongue flicking out of it's mouth every so often.
The figure clenchs his fists and growls; "I want that absolute power, Vennin. I must have those Miraculous!"
The small snake —Vennin— winces. "But nobody knows where these Miraculous are!"
A mirthless chuckle echoes around the cold chamber. "I found you though, my little Vennin. Your Miraculous... remind me of its powers again."
Vennin smiles, revealing a pair of fangs. "The Viper Necklace allows you to control the mind of a single snake! Whether it be python, garter, or—"
The man in the light cut him off. "A viper, perhaps?" At Vennin's nod, the figure continues. "And so I will control —well, perhaps partially control— the mind of a single human!"
Vennin pales. "But master, the Miraculous are not meant to be used for evil purposes!"
"I must have this absolute power!" He points at Vennin. "Your Miraculous is in my control! I am your master now, and you must obey me."
"Yes, master." Vennin replies sadly.
The figure puts on a necklace. "Vennin, venomous fangs! Bite!" A flash of bright red light and the man turns to the window. His face is covered almost fully by a mask looking like a snake's open mouth. "From this day on, I shall be known as... Viper!" The newly named Viper laughs evilly, his window slowing closing to plunge him into darkness.

A tiny sloth-like creature jerks awake in a drawer, zooming out. "Master, Master!"
The woman laying facedown on a cot looks up, confused. The massager quickly covers up. "Master, master... chanting, it's all part of the treatment. Master, master..." The man begins pushing customer out door. "Thank you for coming, see you again next week!"
"Master, the Snake Miraculous, I felt it's aura." The panda says seriously.
The man gasps, "I thought it had been lost forever!"
The sloth bites it's lip. "But Master, it's a negative aura. I fear it may have gotten into the hands of a dark power!"
"We must find Vennin and his Miraculous. If it has gotten into the wrong hands, there's no telling what evil will come upon the world!" He thrusts his fist in the air. "Time to transform! Lentt..." He tumbled forward onto the cot with a yelp.
The sloth, Lentt, sighs. "Please, Master. Be reasonable. You are—"
He cuts her off. "Still young! I'm only 186. But you're right, Lentt. I can no longer do it alone. We'll need some help." He relents and walks to a large gramophone, pressing a few buttons. The top opened, revealing the Miraculous chest box.

Milo's phone is ringing
"Milo! Your alarm's been going off for fifteen minutes, you're going to be late for your first day back at school!"
Milo crawls out from underneath bed covers. "Ugh... got it, mum!" He trots downstairs with a yawn. "Coming! I'm so excited for my first day!"
