The Girl in the Shadows

I was akumatized, and yet. I can still feel its power. It’s strong. I hate everything about you Ladybug. The Parisian hero. Ha. More like the Parisian’s vigilante. Thinking she can do whatever she wants with no rules or consequences. Just you wait Ladybug, you’ll get what’s coming to you. Soon enough.

Ladybug and Cat Noir don’t know who they’re dealing with. I lie and cheat almost every day and night. I know my way around a place like Paris. You may have met Volpina, but you know nothing about what I’m capable of. I hate you Ladybug, and your sidekick.

I want to be more than just someone who is on the sidelines. Someone who lies and cheats out of every situation. People can’t help but adore me, listen to every word I say. Something about it though feels different. I can feel something coming around the corner. And I want to be more than just a girl in the shadows. I want it. More than anything.

Ladybug doesn’t know what’s gonna hit her if I can help it. She may know who Lila Rossi is, but she doesn’t know anything about me. The real me. Underneath all of these lies is someone that can destroy her reputation. I know that Ladybug and Cat Noir can be taken down with the Butterfly Miraculous. HawkMoth’s powers.

They will soon be mine!

I want to be more than just someone who is on the sidelines. Someone who lies and cheats out of every situation. People can’t help but adore me, listen to every word I say. Something about it though feels different. I can feel something coming around the corner. And I want to be more than just a girl in the shadows. I want it. More than anything.

Volpina. It has a ring to it. Something about her felt so good. Being a chameleon in the shadows. Hiding amongst the civilians of Paris. Ladybug and Cat Noir couldn’t see me coming from a mile away. They don’t know anything about me and how strong I can be within the shadows. Something that they can never take advantage of. But I can finally do something about them. The Parisian heroes. But I want something more. That feeling of power in the palm of my hands. I could feel it coursing through me. When HawkMoth akumatized me with that purple butterfly. Fly fly fly! I could feel it growing stronger. Stronger than ever before!

I want to be more than just someone who is on the sidelines. Someone who lies and cheats out of every situation. People can’t help but adore me, listen to every word I say. Something about it though feels different. I can feel something coming around the corner. And I want to be more than just a girl in the shadows. I want it. More than anything.

HawkMoth. I will get to the bottom of this. Someday soon I will have your Miraculous. No matter what.
