The chapter begins by revealing that Ladybug, Chat Noir, and Hawk Moth are chasing a criminal down an alleyway.

"You will never catch me Ladybug and Cat Noir!" the criminal says, chuckling evilly as he glances at Ladybug, and Cat Noir.

"Quick use your cane to make him trip Hawk Moth," Ladybug says frantically as she glances at Hawk Moth.

Hawk Moth nods, agreeing with Ladybug, but instead of using his cane to make the criminal trip he uses an Akuma on the criminal.

"Hawk Moth," Ladybug says angrily in frustration as she glances at Hawk Moth.

"Oops, my bad," Hawk Moth says innocently as he glances at Ladybug.

After dealing with the Akuma, Ladybug begins to argue with Cat Noir as she says, "He did it again Adrien, that's the third time this week!" Ladybug shouts angrily in frustration as she glances at Cat Noir.

"He just made another mistake, my lady," Cat Noir says desperately as he attempts to plead with Ladybug to no avail.

"No one repeats the same mistake over and over again!" Ladybug shouts angrily in frustration as she glances at Cat Noir.

"I think that you need to calm down, my lady," Cat Noir says desperately as he attempts to calm Ladybug down to no avail.

"I made a mistake I knew that I should have given the moth miraculous to Master Fu when I had the chance!" Ladybug shouts angrily in frustration as she glances at Cat Noir.

"You were going to give the moth miraculous to Master Fu?" Cat Noir asks in disappointment as he glances at Ladybug.

"Yes, and I should have given it to him," Ladybug replies sighing in frustration as she glances at Cat Noir.

"He's my father, my lady," Cat Noir argues as he points this out to Ladybug.

"I understand that he's your father Adrien, but I just don't trust him," Ladybug says, sighing sadly in frustration as she glances at Cat Noir.

"My father ignored me back when he was evil, and I just wanted to spend time with him I thought that you would understand that, my lady," Cat Noir says, sighing sadly as he glances at Ladybug.

"Chat," Ladybug begins signing sadly as she glances at Cat Noir.

However, Cat Noir cuts her off as he says, "Come on father, let's go," Cat Noir says sighing sadly as he glances at Hawk Moth.

Hawk Moth nods, agreeing with Cat Noir, and with that, Cat Noir and Hawk Moth head towards the Agreste Mansion.

"I need some time alone father," Cat Noir says sighing sadly as he transforms back into Adrien.

"Of course, take all of the time that you need Adrien," Hawk Moth says comforting Adrien as he transforms back into Gabriel.

Adrien nods, agreeing with Gabriel and with that, Adrien heads to his room heartbroken.

Meanwhile, the scene transitions over to Marinette as she says, "What have I done Tikki, if Hawk Moth is back to his old self I just made Adrien vulnerable to him," Marinette says panicking as she glances at Tikki.

"It's not too late Marinette, you can still save him," Tikki points out as she glances at Marinette.

"You're right, Tikki, there's still time!" Marinette shouts confidently as she glances at Tikki.

"I'm coming, Adrien!" Marinette shouts frantically as she thinks about Adrien and with that, Marinette heads towards the Agreste Mansion.

Meanwhile, the scene transitions over to Gabriel as he says, "It's time to tempt Adrien aka Cat Noir into joining me," Gabriel says, chuckling evilly, and with that, Gabriel transforms into Hawk Moth.

Meanwhile, Adrien is in his bedroom crying as he says, "I thought that Marinette understood me, Plagg," Adrien says heartbroken while crying as he glances at Plagg.

"She does Adrien, she just needs some time to calm down," Plagg says with concern as he attempts to comfort Adrien to no avail.

All of a sudden, an Akuma appears and Plagg gasps in horror as he says, "Adrien, look out!" Plagg shouts desperately as he attempts to warn Adrien about the Akuma.

However, it's too late, and with that, the Akuma vanishes into Adrien's ring.

After, the Akuma vanishes a purple butterfly mask appears over Adrien's face, and Hawk Moth begins to speak to him as he says, "Hello, son," Hawk Moth says chuckling evilly as he says this in Adrien's head.

"What are you doing father?" Adrien asks in confusion as he hears Hawk Moth in his head.

"I want to help you, son, and in return, you must help me, now please hear me out, son," Hawk Moth replies sincerely as he says this in Adrien's head.

"No Adrien, don't listen to him!" Plagg shouts desperately as he attempts to get Adrien's attention to no avail.

"I'm listening, father," Adrien says in a monotone voice, ignoring Plagg while he begins to fall under Hawk Moth's spell.

"Oh no, I need to find Marinette!" Plagg shouts frantically as he begins to panic, and with that, he leaves to find Marinette.

Meanwhile, Marinette arrives at the mansion as she says, "Finally, I'm here at the mansion," Marinette says, smiling happily as she attempts to open the door.

All of a sudden, Plagg appears to Marinette panicking as he says, "Marinette, Hawk Moth is trying to akumatize Adrien, you must hurry!" Plagg shouts frantically as he glances at Marinette.

Marinette gasps agreeing with Plagg, and with that, Marinette dashes into the mansion.

Meanwhile, Hawk Moth continues to speak with Adrien as he says, "Excellent, now listen to me, son, I can bring your mother, back, but I need your help, to bring her back," Hawk Moth says sincerely as he continues to tempt Adrien into joining him.

"What about Marinette," Adrien says curiously as he hears Hawk Moth in his head.

"Why should you care about her, she just broke your heart, and besides, think about how many times that she has rejected you as Cat Noir," Hawk Moth says sincerely as he points this out to Adrien.

"You have a point there, father," Adrien says, sighing sadly as he agrees with Hawk Moth.

"Exactly, so what do you say Cat Blanc, will you join me and take this chance to get back at Ladybug, and bring me her miraculous along with, yours?" Hawk Moth asks as he offers this to Adrien.

All of a sudden, Marinette breaks into the room that Adrien is in, and she glances at Adrien with concern as she says, "Adrien are you alright?" Marinette asks desperately as she glances at Adrien.

"Yes, father, I will join you, and I will bring you, the miraculouses," Adrien replies in a monotone voice ignoring Marinette while he agrees to Hawk Moth's offer.

"You're too late, Ladybug!" Hawk Moth shouts chuckling evilly as he says this in Adrien's head.

"Adrien, no!" Marinette shouts in horror as she watches Adrien transform into Cat Blanc.

Adrien's skin tone stays the same, along with his hairstyle, and his eyes turn gold, he's now wearing a white catsuit, and finally, cat ears appear on his head.

"Adrien," Marinette says in horror as she glances at Adrien.

"Adrien is no more, I'm Cat Blanc, my lady," Adrien replies chuckling evilly as he glances at Marinette.

"No," Marinette says in defeat as she glances at Cat Blanc.

"Now, if you excuse me, my father is waiting for me, my lady," Cat Blanc says, chuckling as he glances at Marinette, and with that, Cat Blanc leaves to search for Hawk Moth.

"Tikki, what am I going to do?" Marinette asks sighing in defeat as she glances at Tikki.

"I'm sure that you will figure something out, Marinette," Tikki replies sighing sadly as she glances at Marinette.
