Miraculous: Simply the Best/Shadowbug

Transcript
It begins immediately after an off-screen battle against an akumatized villain as Ladybug is clearly mad. He smiles innocently. She shows an angry reaction and she's about to slap him, but decides to not do so. Ladybug then leaves as Cat Noir follows. It cuts to Hawk Moth as he is observing this.
 * Marinette: Cat Noir! You seriously had to do that?!
 * Adrien: What's the problem with it?
 * Marinette: Ugh, boys! You seriously think causing destruction could stop an akumatized villain?!
 * Adrien: Don't you read comics or watch crime shows? It happens all the time!
 * Marinette: It's reckless! And you don't mess fiction with reality.
 * Adrien: We stopped him at least, even if we failed to catch him. That's what matters!
 * Marinette: I had enough of you!
 * Hawk Moth: This is interesting. Seeing those two arguing over how to act gave me an idea for the perfect crime. Fly, my evil akuma. Fly and akumatize Ladybug!

The akuma flies off. At the streets of Paris, Marinette is frustrated.
 * Marinette: Stupid Cat Noir, how can he be so reckless? And then you wonder why they say women are wiser...

The akuma comes and latches itself to Marinette as Hawk Moth communicates to her. Her anger slowly turns into an evil smile. She goes into an alley and turns back into her civilian form, although her clothing is now more seductive due to her akumatization. Tikki, noticing this, grabs the Miraculous and sneaks off with it. At classes, people are commenting about her new looks. She comes into her. Alya, Alix and Luka are all confused. Luka approaches her. She drags him into her and forces her lips into his. Luka tries to pull away as she forces him into a kiss as Adrien ends up seeing it. Alix punches her in the arm. Adrien tries to not be noticed as he sneaks into the men's restroom as he clears his face with water. Meanwhile, Master Fu is meditating as Tikki flies in terrified. They go. In the meantime, with Adrien, he's panting nervously. Suddenly, outside, Mr. Pigeon is back... again. He turns into Cat Noir and gets outside through the window as he spots Marinette as Shadowbug as, for laughs, he whistles at her. Mr. Pigeon gulps and just runs away. She assaults him. Adrien prepares to defend himself as suddenly Alix as Ladybug comes in. Marinette looks and sees that her Miraculous is gone. A vacuum cleaner suddenly appears in Marinette's hand. She summons a block as she throws it into the vacuum cleaner, knocking Marinette back.
 * Hawk Moth: Shadowbug, I heard of your problem with Cat Noir. I am giving you the power to prove yourself better than Cat Noir. And this will be similar to your Miraculous as you can change between Shadowbug and whoever you are. And give me your Miraculous and the Cat Miraculous.
 * Chloé: That's Marinette? That dork looks... not like a dork.
 * Sabrina: I wonder what happened...
 * Chloé: She got a life.
 * Marinette: What do you want?
 * Chloé: To be friends?
 * Marinette: You mocked me for years. How can I be sure I can trust you?
 * Chloé: Because... Umm... I like that new attitude of yours?
 * Marinette: I'll accept that. As long you don't mess with Alya and Alix.
 * Luka: Do you feel alright?
 * Marinette: Better than ever.
 * Luka: You aren't looking or acting yourself.
 * Marinette: Wanna see me not acting like myself?
 * Marinette: Be sure Adrien is watching.
 * Luka: Marinette! What are you doing?
 * Marinette: I was reborn.
 * Alya: Like a phoenix?
 * Alya: What?
 * Chloé: I like her style.
 * Fu: Tikki, what is it? Why isn't Marinette with you?
 * Tikki: Something terrible happened! Marinette was akumatized!
 * Fu: (shocked) How did that happen?!
 * Tikki: I think it was because she was in an argument with Cat Noir. All because he make some damages around Paris while fighting.
 * Fu: This is bad. She's likely to give her Miraculous to Hawk Moth.
 * Tikki: That's what she thinks. I grabbed it.
 * Fu: Great!
 * Tikki: We should warn Cat Noir soon, but we can't have him finding out that she and Ladybug are the same person.
 * Fu: I have a feeling Hawk Moth akumatized Ladybug and not Marinette.
 * Tikki: Hence why the Miraculous. Who should we temporarily give the Ladybug Miraculous?
 * Fu: Someone close to her. But who?
 * Tikki: I would say Alya, but I believe Alix is more suitable for this.
 * Fu: I'll deliver it to her and give the instructions.
 * Adrien: Does this have to do with me making Ladybug mad at me? And why Marinette? Unless... she's an imposter!
 * Plagg: You sure about it? I mean, they look similar.
 * Adrien: Looking similar doesn't mean they're the same person. It could be Lila! Or that one person who became me once! Or a sentimonster!
 * Plagg: It's not time to be the conspiracy theorist. We will just have to wait to see. Just... don't do anything stupid... again.
 * Adrien: Welp... he's back. Plagg, claws out!
 * Marinette: I suggest you leave, Cat Noir.
 * Adrien: I thought we were partners.
 * Marinette: You are dumber than I thought. You don't notice anything different about me? Anything at all?
 * Adrien: Yeah, you got hotter... and evil.
 * Marinette: Bingo. And as soon as I beat Mr. Pigeon, I will beat you.
 * Adrien: Not if I beat him first!
 * Marinette: And he ran away... again. That's alright, that way I can beat you up earlier!
 * Marinette: Huh?!
 * Adrien: Two Ladybugs? How so?
 * Alix: The kwami inside of the Ladybug Miraculous told me about your akumatization. And since only Ladybug can deevilize villains, I am the temporary Ladybug.
 * Marinette: How did this happen?
 * Adrien: Two heads think better than one.
 * Alix: For once you're thinking with your head.
 * Marinette: No matter! Unlucky charm!
 * Marinette: Say goodbye to your Miraculouses.
 * Alix: Well, lucky charm!
 * Alix: Now!
 * Adrien: Cataclysm!

He jumps at Marinette's earings, freeing the akuma as Alix deevilizes it. Everything is fixed as she quickly puts the Miraculous on Marinette. She hugs him tightly. They spot Mr. Pigeon as they get up. Adrien nods as they attack. It cuts to Hawk Moth who laughs. It cuts to the next school day as Marinette is back to normal.
 * Alix: Bye-bye, little akuma. Miraculous Ladybug!
 * Marinette: (recovering her senses, looking angrily at Adrien) Y... you! (being calmer) Saved me!
 * Adrien: Woah, east there, I'm not a teddy bear! But... there's still one thing to do.
 * Marinette: Shall we?
 * Hawk Moth: Everything is falling in place. Now I know Ladybug's true identity.
 * Marinette: I'm sorry, Luka, I was out of myself and I didn't know what I was doing.
 * Luka: It... it's alright. I wonder, what caused it?
 * Marinette: (lying) I went to a stage hypnosis show and I guess the effects only wore out now.
 * Luka: Oh. I hope Adrien isn't mad though.
 * Marinette: Relax. He understood.

She spots Chloé.


 * Chloé: I see you're back to what you used to be. But between us, (whispering) I don't hate you.
 * Marinette: I am glad everything is back to normal.

She giggles as issue ends.
