I do not own Miraculous Ladybug.

Description

An Akuma named Alterna reveals the secret identities of our Heroes to Paris by broadcasting the Origins episodes to the Ladyblog.

"This is the event of the Century. Don't miss it."

Prologue

"...in exchange, you will bring me Ladybug and Chat Noir's Miraculous." Papillon's voice echoed in her mind like bells clinking in an empty house at night.

Alterna wasn't human. Not that Papillon knew that. She was a magical being that nobody believed in anymore. And was thus, impervious to Papillon's powers of persuasion.

Yes. She was still very much in control of herself.

Alterna stretched her limbs and flexed her shoulders. She took a deep breath and closed her eyes. Silently running an internal spiritual checkup on herself and evaluating the effects of Papillon's possession on her spirit.

It was clear her own magic had been compromised. Normally, her aura was blue and it's design mimicked that of the universe. Now, there was a new presence. A new purple planet orbiting around her sun. This addition must be her new power the dark butterfly afforded her.

Hesitantly, she tapped into her new power.

Alterna's breath caught as she was plunged into vision. The naked truth was revealed to her. Past and future events flew through her mind until it stopped at one event that would forever change the lives of two heroes.

She staggered, but caught herself before she could fall flat on her face.

How could this be?

She pondered what she should do in this situation. She had come to Paris on a mission to retrieve the Miraculous from her people's enemy: the last survivor of Miracle shrine.

The old man was a slippery one to track. He had successfully evaded her coven for decades.

Until Ladybug and Chat Noir showed themselves. Her people could feel the first time that the Miraculous cure activate on a concentrated area on Earth. Her coven almost had an aneurysm. Humans were never meant to wield the Kwami. Bad things tended to happen. Papillon being a prime example. The Miracle stones originally belonged to the Monarchy of Alterna's dimension.

Plans were made, and it was decided that Alterna would be the one chosen to retrieve the Miraculous this time. Unlike her predecessors, she was not allowed to fail.

But now she didn't know if she could do it. Should loyalty to her people trump her morals? She didn't know.

"Alterna?" Papillon's voice echoed again in her mind. Snapping out of her thoughts, she realized that her silence would be suspicious.

"As you wish." Alterna's otherworldy lilt was clear in her voice. She smiled deviously. "I get what I want and I'll give you what you want."

She would play Papillon's game. For now.

But there were going to be changes to the plans of her people. Ladybug and Chat Noir needed to be revealed.

And she was just the Fae to do it.

Fae and Kwami

To clear the confusion in the reviews.

A Fae, is simply another way to say Fairy. Here is a link to read about Fae if you want. You guys know the drill when it comes to using web links on this website.

(Wikipedia dot org slash wiki slash Fairy)

What I'm doing is that I'm taking what Wikipedia tells me about Fae and creating my own idea out of it.

In my story, the Kwamis need to be integrated into this idea of Fae.

And in my understanding, Kwamis are abstract creatures who are able to traverse the universe. And I know Fae are local to Earth.

For my plot to work I need to bridge the gap between Fae and Kwami. Therefore I'm creating another world/dimension where Kwami and Fae live together under a Monarchy. (As Alterna mentioned)

Kwami and Fae need to have their own world/dimension from Earth. But there is a lot of backstory to do with Master Fu and Alterna that's coming up that I don't want to spoil for you so this is all I'm going to say.

I've never read ACOTAR. But if it's really that similar to my fanfic, I apologize. I had no idea. But my fanfic isn't based on that story universe and you'll be disappointed if that is what you're hoping for.

What I find interesting is that there are many similarities between Fae and Kwami if you read this article on Fae lore:
