The Parisian’s Hero

What’s this doing here? Ahh! It’s a bug! It’s a mouse! A bug mouse!

Don’t be scared. I’m here to give you powers.

Powers? Is this some kind of prank or something?

No. You have been chosen to be the next Ladybug. You’re destined to be a superhero. Paris needs you now more than ever.

Wha-What?! Superhero?! I. I’m no superhero.

But you are. Marinette Dupain Cheng, you’re destined to be Ladybug.

I’ll get right to the chase. I’m Tikki, the power of creation. I can grant you the power to create, fix and heal anything that you desire. You will use it for the greater good. To help others and protect Paris. The Parisian’s hero.

A hero? But that’s too much for someone like me. I’m clumsy and trip over almost everything. I can’t even stand up against Chloe. Someone like me could never be. A hero. The Parisian’s hero. You might as well find someone else to help you save Paris. I’m not cut for it.

But you must. We need you. Paris needs you more than anything. They will love, adore you. They will look up to you as you soar through the sky! Seeing you look so strong will give them hope! The best kind of hero that Paris needs! Don’t see how amazing it would be? To be Ladybug? A hero? You could change so much with the power of creation.

It does sound nice. But. I could never be. Ladybug. The Parisian’s hero? Shouldn’t I have someone to help me?

You already do. His name is Cat Noir. The Black Cat Miraculous is the power of destruction. The power to destroy anything he touches. He can help you protect Paris and help others in distress. You two will be stronger together. No matter what. You can trust him.

Cat Noir. Hmph. He sounds like a pain. But can he trust someone like me? Someone that is clumsy? I’m not brave like him. I could never be a hero like him. He must be so strong, but maybe he could train me. To be the Parisian hero. Ladybug? Maybe I could be. A hero.

That’s the spirit! You will be the best Ladybug Paris needs! They need you more than anything! They will look up to you! More than anyone! Soaring through the sky! Who’s that? It’s Ladybug! And Cat Noir! Saving Paris once again! They will adore you! Look up to you! More than anyone! You’re destined to be Ladybug! I can see it now! Marinette, you. Are. A. Hero. Everyone. Will. Look. Up. To. You! Ladybug!

All you’ve gotta say is, Tikki, Spots on! Do you accept the Miraculous of Creation? Can I trust you?

Yes. You can trust me.

Tikki! Spots on!

I am Ladybug! Through and through! I will use the power of creation and save Paris! I will soar through the sky! Higher! Everyone will look up to me! See Ladybug in the sky! I can see it now! Their smiles faces looking up at me! They will chant my name.

Ladybug! Ladybug! Ladybug!

I am Ladybug!
