The akuma, who guests mistaken her as Princess Charlotte, called herself Medusa (an evident hiss on the 's' sounds as she introduced herself to the party guests). Despite of coming to the ball to fight against Ladybug and Chat Noir, Medusa appeared to be dressed for the occasion.
The super-villain donned in her own ball gown that flowed straight down to her ankles. Similar to Marinette's fabric material of her gown, her attire was made and stitched from lace, well, Hawk Moth's magic that is. There were leg slits on the skirt for Medusa's legs to move more freely and a more seductive attitude to her character. Hanging around her neck was a long necklace with the face of the Greek monster. The gold chains were centered down her deep V-neck dress making it hard to not see it.
"You people have no respect for the birthday girl and still have the nerve to have a good time without me? You all deserve to remain frozen in stone forever! That's what your hearts are made of anyway."
Marinette watched in horror as her closest friends magically turned into stone statues from just one simple glance at the akuma. Luckily enough, both Marinette and Adrien had paid attention to that History lesson on Ancient Greece about the myth and legend of Greek gods and monsters. One of which was Medusa. The number one rule to survive Medusa without turning into stone was not look at her face, otherwise you turn into stone!
"Adrien, keep your eyes on me!" Marinette stopped Adrien before he could turn his head towards the akuma. It was a good thing he stopped when he did. Medusa was looking over their way.
Marinette couldn't see it, but she knew they were being stared at. "Come on, we got to hide."
Medusa picked up on Marinette's determination to flee and commanded all of her statues to come to life and serve her as her army. "Make sure they never make it out alive."
"This way," Adrien grabbed a hold of Marinette's hand and pulled her towards safety. An emergency exit approached ahead at the other end of the ballroom, and the two teenagers were hopeful that they will be able to make it out safely. That is until they got mobbed by reanimated statues all around them.
The statues produced deep zombie-like moans with their arms outstretched as they closed them in. Trapping them with no way of escape. Marinette and Adrien looked from left to right but fought to avoid Medusa's gaze as she elegantly strutted towards the duo like a runaway model.
"No superhero will save you now," said Medusa in her silky, compelling voice.
Speaking of superheroes, Adrien wondered where Ladybug was, and the same went with Marinette with Chat Noir. Both heroes should've received an alert on their phones as civilians minutes after an akuma was spotted, one of them should've been in the area by then. Medusa got Marinette and Adrien alarmed when she brought it up, where were Paris' heroes at a crisis like this?
"Any sign of Chat Noir, Adrien?" asked Marinette helplessly in a whisper. Adrien hitched his breath at the mention of his alter ego. He darted his eyes at the pocket where Plagg was hiding as a signal for help, but even his black kwami couldn't offer a solution for this difficult situation.
