This is an idea I really liked, but couldn’t find any fan-art or fan-fiction about, so I thought, “What the hell, I’ll do it myself.” I worked on this for the past week, week and a half, and I wanted to post it here on Tumblr to see the kind of feedback it gets. Kind of like a test run (for a lack fo a better term). So let me know if you have any criticisms or notes that could help me make this better. Otherwise, I hope you guys like it! Enjoy!
Paris, France. What had been known to be the battleground between Hawkmoth and Ladybug was now much worse than ever before. Battle droids had invaded the city, firing at people without mercy. Luckily, Ladybug had responded soon after their arrival, and she had summoned all her previous partners as well. Divided into three groups, the heroes spread out across Paris and did their best to save Paris. But, hours passed into the fight, yet the robots continued to attack with no end in sight.
A police officer was running from the fight, covering an omnic and a human child. The three took cover behind some cars, however the null droids weren’t stopping.
Suddenly a metal staff was thrown through the droid’s head, defeating it, and soon after, one of Paris’s heroes landed on its shoulders.
Chat Noir pulled his staff out of the droid’s head, and leapt out of the way as the other null droids began to fire at him. “What are these things?!” He yelled, dodging their shots.
Ladybug swung to the street level, landing in front of her partner. “I don’t know,” Swinging her yoyo, she created a shield against the robots’ projectiles, “But something tells me they’re not from Hawkmoth.”
From the street around the corner, Rena Rouge and Carapace ran to the group of heroes. “Ladybug!” Rena exclaimed, “It’s worse than we thought! Those droids just keep coming!”
Carapace added, “And we’ve had to recharge once already.”
Suddenly the droids fired again. Ladybug grunted as their shots hit her yo-yo barrier, then Carapace lent his shield to help block their shots as Chat Noir and Rena Rouge stood back.
The spotted heroine looked around frantically, before seeing a collection of cars turned over behind them. “Everyone, take cover behind the cars!” Ladybug ordered. The four heroes rushed over to the flipped vehicles, leaping over to the other side and pressing their backs against them. The four heroes panted for breath as the droids continuing to fire in their direction. Ladybug noticed the officer and the two others from before were not too far from her, and from the sounds she heard, the droids were closing in on them.
Ladybug opened her yoyo and called the two other hero groups she had assigned, hoping she could get them to help. The screen split in two, showing the snake and dragon heroes in currently different locations. “Viperion! Ryoko! We need help. Can you get to our location?” Ladybug asked hopefully.
Viperion frowned, “I’m sorry Ladybug, but my team needs to recharge. These droids aren’t letting up!”
“And my group is the only thing between these things and the people.” Ryoko explained, “If we leave now, there will be nothing to protect them.”
Ladybug sighed, “That’s alright, you two. We’ll figure something out. Be careful.”
Ryoko and Viperion nodded as Ladybug ended the call. She turned to her teammates, “Looks like it’s just us now.” She told them.
“Wait, where’s Queen Bee?!” Chat Noir yelled. The teammates looked at each other in worry.
Just then, a fifth figure leapt over them and landed next to the cat hero. Queen Bee caught her breath before turning to the other heroes, “I saw some kind of flying ship on its way here.” She yelled, “It could be more of these things!”
Ladybug groaned, “Great, just what we needed.”
“What do we do Ladybug?” Rena asked.
Ladybug looked down in thought. She looked to her yoyo. ‘Maybe it’s time to use Lucky charm. Then again, if I use it now, and there’s still more droids to come like Chloe said, we’d all be in trouble.’ Ladybug groaned. Her team was very much out of their league! They could actually lose, and that thought terrified her.
Suddenly, an animalistic sound came from above the group, and a loud crash from the street. Ladybug stood up and looked over the car they were behind. She gasped at what was there; Some kind of gorilla had crushed a few droids that had gotten close to them. It wore some kind of armor, and was holding onto what looked like a weapon.
The other Miraculous users soon joined her, and were just as surprised (if not, more). Even the Officer, omnic, and young kid were staring at him.
The gorilla turned back towards them. “Bonjour Ladybug.” He spoke, taking the heroes for another loop. “We’re here to help!” The mammal leapt off towards the droids, his weapon firing bolts of electricity, downing the droids in his path.
The five heroes stared at the mammal in shock. Carapace mumbled, “Was that a… gorilla?”
After a second or two of processing what just happened, Ladybug shook her head and frowned with new determination, “Now’s not the time for questions!” She pulled her yoyo back out, “We’ve still got a chance!” The heroine leapt over the car and ran to join the new fighter. The other heroes followed her lead, striking droids in their weak spots, and watching each other’s backs. They were so focused; they hadn’t seen the ship Queen Bee mentioned was landing nearby.
While fighting through a group of droids, Ladybug noticed some of the robots had begun to pile onto the gorilla. Ladybug swung her yoyo to pull some of them off, but they kept coming.
“Ladybug! Look out!” Chat Noir cried out.
The spotted hero turned and saw a droid aiming a gun at her. But before it could fire, shots of ice hit it from behind, then froze its gun to his head. The Droid fell, and Ladybug saw a girl in blue winter attire holding a strange gun connected to a backpack.
“Good work Mei!” The gorilla smiled, despite being piled on by more droids.
The girl waved, “Thanks.” Then she gasped as a nearby droid was getting up, but was shot down by yet another newcomer who had quite literally flashed in, holding two rapid fire pistols.
“Watch your back!” She said before zipping off.
The Gorilla growled as he stood up, throwing the droids off him. Ladybug snapped out of her stupor once again, and went back to fighting. Before long, Ladybug remembered the three civilians nearby. She turned to one of the other heroes, “Hey!” Ladybug called out, “It’s Mei, right?”
The girl in blue nodded, “Yeah, that’s me!” She replied, freezing a droid in a wall of ice.
Ladybug swung her yoyo around a droid’s neck, then grunted as she pulled the line tightly, slicing the droid’s head off. “We need to get those people to safety!” She gestured to the small group still by the flipped cars.
The gorilla tipped a car in front of her, protecting her from oncoming fire. Ladybug sent him a grateful smile, “Thanks.”
The mammal smiled, then turned to Mei, “Get the civilians to the ship!” He called out.
Mei gave the heroine a thumbs up, “You got it!” The girl started running to the officer and the two others, when the ground suddenly shook. Mei turned around, frightened. “What was that?”
All the heroes looked and saw the largest droid they’ve seen appear from around the corner. It aimed its left arm at them, then fired rockets. The gorilla stood between the explosions and Ladybug, faltering away from the flames as Ladybug stared at the droid in terror. Suddenly the robot’s chest opened up, revealing a cannon glowing red.
The gorilla turned to everyone and yelled, “TAKE COVER!”
The cannon fired a red laser, streaming down the road. Each hero leapt out of the way, Mei helping the Civilians as the laser sliced through their ship.
Ladybug quickly got back on her feet as her teammates gathered around her, just as frightened. But before they could do anything, the line of destruction the laser caused began to erupt into flames.
The Miraculous heroes gasped in terror. Carapace leapt to the front of his group, holding his shield out, “Shell-ter!” He yelled as the fire gained on them. A dome of glowing green surrounded them, but by then, the explosions had caught up, and sent the five heroes flying backwards. Carapace’s shield may have protected them from the fire, but the force of the explosion was too strong.
Mei acted just as quickly, creating an ice wall in front of the civilians to protect them, but was unable to save herself.
The flames and smoke died down as Ladybug groaned in pain. Looking around, she saw her four teammates on the ground, surrounded by debris. They were conscious, but were likely injured.
“Winston!”
Ladybug looked around, seeing the hero with spiked hair and goggles holding Mei, with the police officer, omnic and child looking over them. Ladybug then noticed Mei’s eyes were closed, and looked pale.
“Oh no.” Ladybug whispered in fear. She grunted as she got to her feet, then rushed over to Mei and the other hero.
“Winston!” The fast hero yelled, looking over to the gorilla who was starting to come to. “Mei, stay with me. Winston!” She cried.
The gorilla, who Ladybug now knew as Winston, got up and walked over to them. Ladybug and the officer stepped aside for him. “Mei.” He said sadly.
The girl in blue sighed in pain, leaning against her teammate. “She needs help.” The hero in goggles said, “We can’t stay here!”
“Ladybug!” The spotted heroine turned to see Chat Noir calling out to her while running up to the group. Her heart sank at the sight of Chat Noir limping with blood coming out of a cut over his mask, Carapace helping a wounded Rena Rouge, and Queen Bee holding her arm as she winced in pain. Ladybug reached out for Chat to lean against her, which he gladly accepted. “We’re in pretty bad shape.” He grunted, “And that giant robot is still coming.”
Carapace solemnly said, “I can’t believe my shield didn’t work.” He looked down at Rena, worried as she kept her right foot off the ground.
Suddenly the giant droid started to fire at them again. Winston held his arms up to shield the group as the Officer and omnic protected the child with them. The Miraculous heroes covered their heads, leaning over in fear of getting hurt.
Ladybug looked over her team, and the other team of heroes. They were beaten, bruised, and needed medical care. Plus, she knew some of her partners were probably going to detransform soon. This fight wasn’t going to end in their favor.
Just then, Winston spoke up. “Tracer, get everyone out of here. I’ll hold the line.”
Ladybug looked at him. His face was determined, and there was something in his eyes that told her he knew what had to be done.
“But…” Mei muttered, “You said to stick together.”
Winston turned to her, “Don’t worry. I’ll be right behind you.” He looked up to Tracer.
Tracer’s mouth twitched, looking for what to say, before looking back at him. “You’d better be.” She exclaimed.
As Winston nodded and grabbed his weapon, Ladybug understood what he was going to do, and couldn’t find it in herself to let him do it alone. She walked up to Winston, “I’ll help you hold them off.” She spoke proudly.
The gorilla shook his head, “Miss Ladybug. This is not your fight-”
“It is my fight!” She interrupted him, “This is our city! And I promised to protect it until my last breath.” She turned to her partners, “The rest of you, get to safety.”
“WHAT?!” Chat Noir gasped, “No way! I’m staying with you!” He walked to her side. “We’ve been partners from the beginning. I’m not about to let you do this alone! And I’m not taking ‘no’ for an answer!”
Ladybug opened her mouth to say something, but just sighed. She knew Chat Noir too well to know he wasn’t joking around anymore. He wasn’t going to leave her side, especially not now. So, she wasn’t going to tell him otherwise. Ladybug looked to the other three, “Rena Rouge, Carapace, Queen Bee. We’ll buy you some time, then meet up with you later. I promise.”
Queen Bee’s lip quivered, “Well… you… you better!” She remarked, though truthfully, she was trying to stay strong.
Rena Rouge looked at Ladybug, “Ladybug… Please, stay safe.” She mumbled.
Ladybug nodded. “I will.” She turned Tracer and the officer, “Now all of you, go!” She ordered. The group quickly started to run down the street, the officer helping Mei the same way Carapace was helping Rena Rouge. As they ran, Mei and Tracer looked back at Winston, as the other three Miraculous bearers did the same for Ladybug and Chat Noir.
The three remaining heroes stood together, glaring up at the droid. Ladybug swung her yoyo, Chat Noir took his staff out, and Winston held onto his gun. The giant’s right arm cannon began to charge up, yet they stood their ground as the giant fired three glowing orbs of energy.
Suddenly something landed in front of the heroes and deflected the robot’s shots. Two of them hit the groups of smaller droids on the street, and the last one flew back towards the giant, travelling up its arm before exploding near its face. The giant stumbled backwards into the nearby building.
Ladybug gasped in awe, the other heroes stopped running, and the newcomer stood up, revealing a glowing green visor under his hood. In fact, Ladybug noticed his entire body seemed to be made of metal and green biolights, and on his back were two swords, one of which he had used to deflect the shots.
“Genji.” Winston gasped.
From the cyborg’s hand, three shurikens emerged. Genji threw them, taking down three droids, before slicing another in half with his sword and continuing onto others.
By now, Tracer, Mei, and the others had come back (even the three civilians), all gaping in awe. Suddenly, the sound of honking came from the street nearby. Tracer and Winston turned to see a metal truck barreling down the street. A figure in a large metal suit with a giant war hammer burst out. “Hammer Down!” They yelled, destroying nearby droids, and forcing others off the ground. A chain then whipped through the remaining robots, before returning to its owner; a young lady in metal armor, similar to that of the other hero, only much smaller and without a helmet.
Tracer leapt into the air in excitement. “Yes! The cavalry’s here!” She excitedly shook Winston’s shoulder. She brought her pistols out before zapping back into the fight.
Winston meanwhile, looked up to see something flying over them, dropping bombs of energy at the droids. The figure was robotic, looked feminine, and was primarily white with blue features. She turned to the group and smiled, her face some kind of hologram. “Hello Winston!”
“Echo!” Winston smiled.
Ladybug couldn’t help but smile as well. She looked to Chat Noir, who felt the same way. Suddenly a bright light shone from above them all. From it, an angelic figure descended next to Mei, with glowing wings and light blonde hair. She placed her hand on Mei’s shoulder, “Let’s get you back in the fight.” She said, a light trailing from her shoulder to Mei’s, healing her wounds.
Mei gasped in awe. “Woah.”
The angelic female then turned to the three injured Miraculous heroes, bringing some sort of staff out from behind her. Streams of yellow light from her staff trailed to each of the three heroes individually, healing them to perfect condition.
Rena Rouge stood on her own again, looking at Queen Bee and Carapace with joy. “No way!” She smiled. The woman even sent the streams to Ladybug and Chat Noir, their cuts and bruises healing until they had no trace.
Ladybug smiled, “Thank you!” She called out.
Suddenly, the giant droid blared. All the heroes turned to see it getting back on its feet. The cannon from its chest opened up and fired at them.
The girl in armor called out, “Interlock shields!” The two armored fighters created a large wall of blue light, which protected the heroes from the fire.
“How are we going to stop this thing?” The woman asked.
Ladybug pulled her yoyo out, and sent it upwards. “Lucky Charm!” She called out. Glowing light trailed from the yoyo and created a long piece of cloth. The item fell into Ladybug’s arms. She looked at it in confusion, “A scarf?”
Chat Noir jokes, “I don’t think that’s appropriate attire for this season.” He smirked.
Ladybug hummed in thought, looking around. Everything was grey, except for a few items which flashed in ladybug pattern; The scarf, Mei’s backpack, the mechanism on Tracer’s chest, the giant droid, and Winston. She thought hard about what to do, but ultimately came up with nothing. Ladybug groaned, “I don’t get it.” She mumbled. “The Lucky Charm always gives me what we need!”
Rena Rouge approached Ladybug with Carapace and Queen Bee close behind. They all looked over the item. Queen Bee remarked, “Are we supposed to make it snow or something?”
“In the middle of summer?” Rena replied in disbelief. “How would that even help?”
Just then, Winston looked over to Mei who was comforting the child. His face lit up, “Mei! Your backpack!”
Mei looked back at him, “Huh?” She looked to her bag, then gasped, “That could work!” She took the pack off, setting it on the ground, then began to tamper with it. “Tracer! Pulse bomb!” She called out.
Tracer held out a device, “Here you go!”
Ladybug watched them before looking to Winston, “Wait, what’s going on?”
Winston turned to her, “Think about it; your charm is meant for cold weather. Now, what happens to machinery,” He looked to the giant robot, then continued, “When it gets too cold in a short amount of time.”
Ladybug looked at the robot, then to her scarf. Suddenly, the idea clicked. “That’s it! You’re a genius!”
The gorilla smiled, “Actually, I’m a scientist.” He chuckled.
At that moment, the two armored heroes grunted at the droid’s laser continued to fire, their shield still staying strong. “It is getting hot!” The larger one yelled.
Ladybug frowned in determination, then turned to her partners. “Alright guys, we need to help them out!” She wrapped the scarf around her neck to keep it with her at all times. “Carapace, you stay here and keep the civilians safe. Rena Rouge, we need something to distract that giant. Queen Bee, do you think you can use your Venom to stun that thing?” she gestured to the giant droid.
Queen Bee smiled proudly, “You know I can!” She gripped her spinning top tightly.
Ladybug smiled, “Perfect. Chat Noir and I will make you a path. We go on my signal.”
Suddenly, Echo started firing against the giant. The giant ceased fire on the group of heroes, and focused on Echo. It began to shoot rockets at her, but the hero simply dodged them all gracefully.
Ladybug called out, “Rena! Now!”
The fox hero nodded and put her flute to her lips. A ball of magic gathered at the end as she played, before she drew her flute back, then used it to throw the ball to the robot. “Mirage!” She called out. The ball of energy landed by the Robot’s head, which it ineffectively tried to swat away. From the orange smoke, a second Echo appeared, which flew around the robot’s head, effectively distracting it.
Meanwhile, Mei locked the Pulse bomb into place. She picked it up, and held it out for Winston. “Ready!” She smiled.
Winston took the backpack, and turned to Tracer. “Go long!”
Tracer pulled her gloves tighter. “Right!” She nodded before disappearing in a streak of light blue.
Winston hit the activation button on the bomb, then swung the backpack around before throwing it into the air.
“Alright, let’s go!” Ladybug called out. She raced towards the giant with Chat Noir and Queen Bee right behind her. As Chat and Ladybug cleared a path for the bee hero to get to the robot, Tracer reappeared above the, and caught the backpack. “Got it!” She called out, before zipping off again, only to see the droid trying to swat her. Tracer looked in fear before hearing someone nearby.
“Ryuujin no ken wo kurae!” Genji called out, then sliced through the robot’s hand with ease, allowing Tracer to keep going.
Chat Noir was helping Ladybug clear a path for Queen Bee when he noticed a shadow growing larger around him. He looked up, seeing part of the robot’s hand falling towards him and Ladybug. Chat Noir reacted fast. “Cataclysm!” He yelled as an orb of darkness gathered in his hand before clutching it with his fist. His hand started to radiate black bubbles, before he leapt up towards the hand. With one swipe, the hand began to rust and decay, until it dissipated into nothing.
Ladybug saw this, and smiled as Chat Noir landed. “Nice one Kitty.” She remarked, making the cat hero smile.
At that same moment, Queen Bee had reached the foot of the giant. Spinning her weapon, she called out, “Venom!” She then grabbed onto the top as a stinger formed around her hand, beating like a heart. She didn’t hesitate as she punched the robot’s leg, the stinger disappearing in a flash of fellow which trailed up the robot’s leg, until it could no longer move.
Ladybug looked up, seeing Queen Bee’s magic take effect, then saw Tracer had landed in the robot through a hole near its head. She looked to her teammates and yelled. “Fall back!” Ladybug ordered, running back to the group of heroes. Queen Bee and Chat Noir followed suit, until they were back with Rena Rouge and Carapace.
Soon after, Tracer appeared between Mei and Winston, stumbling back to regain balance. Then, the bomb went off, the blast of ice originating from the robot as everyone shielded their faces. Ladybug was suddenly very happy her lucky charm was a scarf. When the air was clear, the robot had been encased in ice. The robot started to crack and crumble, until it all collapsed, creating a cloud of snow which rushed towards the heroes. Ladybug instinctively put the scarf around her face and closed her eyes, bracing herself for the cloud of ice coming her way.
When the icy wind faded, Ladybug looked around, seeing snowflakes drifting down towards her. Ladybug sighed with a mix of relief and wonder. The fight was over. Against all odds, they had won.
As the hero was taking it all in, the man in armor yelled, “Victory is ours, my friends!” Ladybug turned to the other hero group as they started gathering together.
“Hi Lena.” The armored girl waved.
“Brigette?” Tracer turned to her in surprise, “Oh my gosh you’ve grown!” She smiled, grabbing Brigette’s face to get a closer look. She then flashed over to Mei, “Oh! Everyone, this is Mei.” She said as the other three heroes approached them.
“Hi everyone.” The girl waved nervously.
“Ice to meet you.” Reinhart shook her hand as Brigette groaned in annoyance.
Ladybug walked to the other team with her partners behind her. Tracer was the first to notice them approaching.
Ladybug spoke up, “Excuse me?” She asked, gaining their attention, “Thank you all for what you did. We could never have beaten those things without you.”
Tracer smiled in return, “We’re happy to help.” She put her hands on her hips, “You’re Ladybug, right?”
The spotted heroine nodded, “Yep!” She then gestured to her friends, “And this is Chat Noir, Rena Rouge, Carapace, and Queen Bee.”
Mei exclaimed, “You guys were awesome out there!”
The angelic lady, named Mercy, looked around sadly. “We are terribly sorry for the damages those null droids have caused.”
Ladybug simply smiled, “No need to apologize. Besides,” Ladybug removed the scarf from around her neck, “If my lucky charm can fix damages caused by Akumas, something tells me this will be no different.” She held it low then tossed it high into the air. “Miraculous Ladybug!”
The scarf flashed into swarms of magical ladybugs which scattered across Paris. The swarms flew through the streets, erasing all the damage the droids had done and restoring Paris back to normal.
The other heroes watched in awe. The swarm even restored the ship Tracer and Mei had landed in.
“Woah.” Brigette awed.
“Remarkable.” Mercy smiled.
“Truly incredible.” Genji added.
“How is that possible?” Mei asked.
Chat Noir smiled, putting an arm around Ladybug’s shoulders, “That’s just one of the many perks our lady has to offer.”
Ladybug playfully removed his arm, “As long as your Cataclysm doesn’t cause too much trouble.” She joked, sending Chat a playful grin. The cat hero chuckled, rubbing the back of his head nervously.
Tracer looked up in thought, still watching the swarms clean up everything. She looked to Ladybug and her team, “I don’t suppose any of you would have any interest in joining our team, would you?” She asked.
Rena Rouge gasped in excitement, “For real?!”
Carapace leapt up in excitement, punching his fist to the sky, “That’d be awesome!”
Queen Bee smirked, “I suppose I could donate some of my time.”
But then their miraculous began to beep, so Ladybug interjected. “Uh-oh! We should get going!” She looked to Tracer, “We need to recharge our Miraculous before we turn back. Could we get back to you about that?”
Tracer nodded, “Of course.” She knew Ladybug and her team always left soon after their fights, otherwise they’d transform back into their civilian forms. “We’ll keep a spot open for each of you.”
Ladybug smiled, “Thanks! We’ll reach out to you when we come to a decision. Bug out!” She threw her yoyo and swung off with her teammates following behind her.
The Overwatch team watched them go before turning to one another and started talking, and laughing. Soon enough, Winston joined them with a proud smile on his face.
The police officer was watching the young girl before turning to the heroes. “Monsieur, does this mean Overwatch is back?” She asked.
Winston stopped and looked among his friends. Each one was smiling, with Tracer nodding to him. Winston turned to the officer. “Yes. Yes, we are.” Winston said proudly.
From that day forward, news about Overwatch’s return spread like a wildfire. But more so were the stories about their affiliation with Ladybug and her team. Rumors that they had been a part of Overwatch all along. Questions on whether they will become official Overwatch Agents. Arguments about why they should or shouldn’t join forces. All types of news started buzzing around, and Ladybug never answered any questions. Mainly because she was figuring it out herself. Should she join forces with a larger scale of heroes? Or would that only cause more problems not just for her and Paris, but for the rest of the world?
