Chat Blanc's POV
I watched as the superheroes ran off into the distance. How I slightly longed to be with them, with Marinette but I had a job to do.
"Chat Blanc I order you to destroy them and their miraculous's."
"Yes Rubi," I replied. The words rolled off my tongue easily, though it was the opposite of what of thought. I felt light and powerful yet helpless. The world was crippling before my eyes and I just stood there. It was in my blood to help people and protect them from harm, well at least on my mothers side. My thoughts on my father brought me back to focus.

I jumped off the edge of the Eiffel Tower and headed in their direction. I saw the superheroes ahead, jumping onto the landing of Marinette's balcony. I followed them keeping my distance. Time to see if this power works. I thought hard on what I wanted to happen, holding my hand out firmly I recited words in my head.

Bring me destruction, danger, domination to the land.

The world around me started cracking. The Earth shook violently, buildings started sinking into the ground. I smiled, the feeling was great! I placed my foot in front of me sending an invisible shock through the air. This is it. This is war.

Future Ladybug's POV
"Woah what's happening." Asked Past Nino as the floor started to give way.
"I think it's Chat Blanc, he's looking for us, we need to go now."
I head out the trap door onto the landing only to find Chat Blanc standing in the middle of the street. It wasn't like last time when I fought him, he looked the same but had different powers. My younger self jumped up to join me, an expression of horror plastered on her face.

"Chat Noir this isn't you, fight it!" Pleaded my younger self tears in her eyes.
"I'm not Chat Noir anymore, I am Chat Blanc! Give me your miraculous so I can destroy all of them!"
"Is that what you really want, to destroy the miraculous's? They have become apart of you given you the freedom of being who you truly are! Do you really want to give all that up, give me up!" My younger self yelled, tears pouring down her face. I must give myself credit it was really well worded and I was the one who I thought I was an idiotic teenager.

"Dude come on I'm sure your father never ment any harm."
"You're wrong! I knew he never liked me!" Chat Blanc shouted back to his friend. "Mega cataclysm!"
He blasted the floor in front of Past Carapace sending a shockwave through the air before the floor gave way and we crumbled to the ground, both Carapace's used their shelter to protect everyone.

"Ladybug I think it would be a good time for that lucky charm of yours."
"LUCKY CHARM!" I yelled. A locket? I opened it up to see a picture that was taken on our first double date.

"Guys what am I supposed to do with this," I asked.
"Your the one with the answers," Future Chat Noir said.
"Thanks for the help," I replied sarcastically. I frantically looked around.
"Nothing," I sighed.

"Do you know what to do?" Asked my younger self now joining me.
"No I just can't figure it out, it's a photo a bit of paper can't fix this." My younger self thought for a moment.
"Maybe it can!" And with that she took the locket and ran over to Chat Blanc.

Chat Blanc's POV
"Chat Noir stop this, we just want to talk," Past Marinette said.
"It's Blanc," I scowled mentally cursing myself.
"Don't listen to her!" I could hear Rubi say in the back of my head.
"What do you want Mari."
"Have you ever thought of what you might get out of this? Destroying the miraculous means destroying a part of you, a part of us....................a-all of us, just look at this."

I took the locket from her hand, even through my glove I could feel how warm and soft they were. Opening it up I took a look at the photo, I smiled at it.
"Adrien if you choose to stay with Rubi that's your choice but you'll be throwing all this away, and that photo will never exist, don't you care about our friendship! Don't you care about...m-me." The last part she whispered but I could still hear her.

I suddenly felt a wave of power overcome me but I knew it wasn't from the akuma.
"Don't worry I'll fix this," I whispered to her, stringing the locket around my neck. "I know how to stop her."

"Rubi I'm out numbered get down here."
"Are you forgetting that I'm the one in charge!"
"Do you want those miraculous's gone or what?"
"Fine."
She thinks she's the one in charge, well that's all about to change.

I could hear Rubi coming meaning that it wasn't an illusion.
"Chat Blanc!" Rubi whispered cautiously entering the battle field.
"Over here." I said while lurking behind a building ruin. Brilliant she was walking straight into our trap. I nodded over to Past Nino who brought a shield over us meaning that she couldn't escape.

Past Alya then created an illusion of a struggling Ladybug with me about to destroy her earrings. I took in a sharp breath at the image.
"Just breathe Adrien, focus and control," I heard Past Ladybug whisper in my ear.
Bring me the power to overcome Rubi, bring me the power to overcome Rubi, bring me the power to overcome Rubi.
I recited it yet nothing was happening.
Then I remembered Ladybug's words, focus and control.

All of a sudden the locket started glowing, there was a large flash of light and then silence. I could no longer hear Rubi lecturing me, the illusion had vanished and all the superheroes including Rubi were staring at me. It was unusual, they had a vacant expression on their face and were all staring at me. Let's hope this works I thought.

Rubi give me the miraculous

Rubi started walking over to me absentmindedly, She didn't seem to know what she was doing. She removed both of her miraculous's and all of a sudden I detransformed.

Past Adrien's POV
"W-what's going on? Where am I? Lila?" I had no idea what was going on until I saw the 2 miraculous's enclosed in my hand.
"Adrien you did it!" I turned around to the voice only to feel Past Ladybug embrace me in a tight hug.
"Did what?" I reply returning it.
"Uh defeat Rubi, well Lila." We all turned to face her.

"Ugh you pathetic little idiots mark my words I'll get back at you."
"Try me," Future Ladybug scowled.
Lila ran off in a huff.

"Shouldn't we lock her away." I say handing future Ladybug the miraculous's.
"She's to convincing, she'll escape, hmm I think I have a better idea." She replied. Future Ladybug took out the wolf miraculous.
"WOLFIE, TIKKI UNIFY!"
"Hey Lila your forgetting something."
Lila turned back around.
"What!"
"Your goodbyes."
"MOONBEAM!"

She opened a weird portal and I watched as my older self pushed Lila into the portal as it vanished.
"Where did you send her?" Asked Past Carapace.
"Oblivion, a kind of jail for unworthy miraculous holders the only way to get in or out is with the wolf miraculous," explained Future Ladybug who had now put the wolf miraculous away. "I think I need my lucky charm back Adrien."
I removed the locket from my neck and handed it to her.
"MIRACULOUS LADYBUG!"

We all smiled as Paris restored itself.
"Seems like I should do that too," said past Marinette raising her arm for her lucky charm.
"Wait!" Said her future self stopping her arm. "Don't you want to have a look around first before you leave?"
She looked around and I nodded.
"Sure why not."
