On the streets, people were fleeing away from the swarm of bugs buzzing all over the place by Hive Mind. Hive Mind smirked and looked at the panic in the city.

Hive Mind: Now comes the best part: putting these people into my mindless zombie minions. *He raised his cane up, but then a yo-yo was thrown out and knocked the cane  out of his hands. * Huh? *Soon, the yo-yo was retracted back to Ladybug. * Who did that? *He looked and saw Ladybug and the other heroes. *

White Fang: Call the pests off before we swat you like the bug you are.

Hive Mind: Never! No one will ever stop me: Hive Mind! Young people don't appreciate the life of insects saying they're ugly, gross, and boring. Well I'm gonna show them how fascinating bugs can be.

Ladybug: And mind if I ask how are you gonna do that?

Hive Mind: Like this. *He picked up his cane and raised it up in the air. * All my insects, commence my army! *The swarm of bugs started stinging and biting the citizens and turning them into mindless zombies while Hive Mind smirked evilly. *

Ladybug: What are you doing to these people?

Hive Mind: I turned them into my mindless zombies, they'll listen to what I say, and do what I tell them to do. And the first thing I'll tell them is getting your miraculous.

Leo: Not gonna happen!

Hive Mind: Very well then. My army will have to take them form you by force. Attack, my subjects! *The mindless zombies started charging towards them. *

Eagle: (twirling her bullroarer) How do we deal with this walking cockroach?

Bloom: Ladybug, we'll keep the people who are in mind control busy, you deal with Hive Mind.

Ladybug: Okay, Bloom. Let's go! *The Miraculous heroes charge towards Hive Mind as the Winxs, Lovelixs, Olixs, Majorixs, Regalixs, and the Specialists charge and hold off the mind control zombies. Hive Mind saw them charging towards him. *

Hive Mind: Oh, you wanna fight, huh? Well I'll give you a fight. *He points his cane out. * Butterfly swarm! *He unleashed a swarm of Butterflies and they start flying all over them. *

Ladybug: Take cover! *They start shooing away the Butterflies. *

Miss Fawn: Butterflies are suppose to be pretty, not evil. *She swat them away, Espadon swat away more Butterflies, Digit fire off the Butterflies with her power, Uncanny opened her third eye, and start blasting the Butterfly away. *

Hive Mind: Yes! time to up the power. I'm thinking... swarm of hornets! *He point his cane out and made a swarm of hornets appeared. * Get them! *They start flying towards them. *

Black Panther: Hornets heading our way! *They see a swarm of Hornets flying towards them. *

Miss Fawn: I got this one. Winter's end! *She points her wand out which was a green beam that she shoots at Hive Mind's swarm of hornets and turn them into gold birds. *

Hive Mind: What the...

Blue Feather: (light blue power crystal glowing) Infinite echo!

Mister Quills: (black power crystal glowing) Electric storm!

Hive Mind: (point his cane out) Oh no you don't. Dragon fly swarm! *He summoned a swarm of Dragonflies and they flew so fast towards Blue Feather and Mister Quills, they leaped away from the swarm and they came back. *

White Fang: Watch out! *They evaded the swarm as they came back to Hive Mind. *

Hive Mind: Ha! Chickens! I can make this all go away if you politely comply with me and give me your miraculous and I'll set my bugs free.

Ladybug: Not gonna happen, Hive Mind. Now call off your bugs and we won't have to squish you.

Hive Mind: That'll be the day. But why don't you enjoy my swarm of bees! *He point his cane out, summoned a swarm of Bees, and they start buzzing and trying to sting them. Meanwhile, Riven and Brandon were standing their ground against the mindless zombies, heading their way. *

Musa: Magical echo! *She forms a sphere barrier protecting herself, Riven, and Brandon from the zombies. * This should keep them away. *Soon, more mindless zombies charge towards Sky and Helia, Flora flew in front of them and scowled. *

Flora: Winter Rose! *She summons a wall of thorny vines blocking off the group of mindless zombies from getting closer to them. * These vines should hold them back.

Sky: Just hope they won't try to go through them. *Suddenly, a few jumped up in the air, lunging towards the others in the air, Gemma looked down and saw them heading their way. *

Gemma: Steel wall! *She summoned a Stella wall and they crashed right into it, leaving dents on the shield, she sighed with relief as the shield disappeared and the zombies started falling from the sky. *

Layla: Barrier! *She shoots balls of Morphix that creates a pink round barrier to surround the mindless zombies. *

Melody: Nice save, Layla.

Layla: Thanks. Watch out!

Melody: Huh? *One mindless zombies started charging towards them. * I got this one. current push! *She pushes out a wave out water and washed away the mindless zombies from getting close to them. Hive Mind evaded every power, weapon, and fighting blow from the heroes when the Scarlet Akuma symbol appeared on his eyes. *

Vibrant Monarch: (in the Volcano Lair) Ugh! What are you doing, Hive Mind? Stop fooling around with your bugs and get me what I want or I will squish you like the bug that you are!

Hive Mind: (to Vibrant Monarch) I'm trying, Vibrant Monarch, but they're just... too quick!

Vibrant Monarch: (in the Volcano lair, angry) Well I don't care how fats or slow they are, try to use something towards their advantage and destroy them! My patience has its limit and I do not wish for them to be wasted!

Hive Mind: (to Vibrant Monarch) Don't worry, Vibrant Monarch, you'll get your miraculous and rule the world however you want. *Then, the Scarlet Akuma symbol disappeared as he scowled at the heroes. * You weaklings have nothing on me. I will turn you all into bugs and squish you after you fork over the miraculous.

Mister Quills: You wish, creep. Whatever the reason that Vibrant Monarch has plans for them, she'll never get them no matter how hard she tries!

Hive Mind: (squinting his eyes angrily) We'll see about that. Swarm of locusts! *He point his cane out, fired off a swarm of locusts, but Madame Raya twirled his baton, which turned into a bubble wand, and made a bubble shield to protect herself and the others from the swarm of locusts. He gasped and scowled. * Okay, so locusts won't do you any good. well, I can make that even better. I hope you're not too sensitive with the sound of my crickets!

Firefly: Oh no, not the crickets.

Eagle: (floating up in the air) Oh he won't be doing anything. *Her power crystal glowed white. * Spinning cyclone! *She starts spinning until she formed a tornado, then moved towards Hive Mind, sucking him inside the tornado, and then being thrown out of it. *

Hive Mind: (rubbing the back of his head) Ugh. Ow. *Soon, Eagle landed and scowled as the bubble done popped. * Okay, that's it. No more Mr. nice bug. Swarm of crickets! *He points his cane out, summoning a swarm of crickets, every last cricket start rubbing their legs together making a chirpy sound which was so irritating that everyone covered their ears from the noise. *

Timmy: (covering his left ear) What is that? *Tune, Amore, Lockette, and Chatta covered their ears from the cricket noise too. *

Bloom: (covering her ears) It's the crickets!

Stella: Make it stop!

Blue Feather: (covering her ears) Ahh, my ears!

Uncanny Valley: (covering her ears) That is deafening!

Leo: (covering his ears, getting down on his knees) My poor eardrums!

Phoebe: (moaning) Make it stop! *Hove Mind started laughing evilly at them. *

Hive Mind: That's right. I'll get rid of all my insects and free my mindless zombies if you give up and hand me your miraculous or I can take it from you by force.

Lockette: Ladybug, what do we do? *She wince in torture as she covered her ears. *

Ladybug: (scowling) We're not giving up, Lockette. Time to put an end to this pest once and for all. Lucky charm! *She throws her yo-yo up, a swarm of magical Ladybugs appeared, and made a can of bug spray appeared. * Bug spray?

Firefly: Think we can cover all of Paris with a can that small? *Ladybug looked at the can and thought about it. *

Hive Mind: No! Whatever it is you're planning, you'll never kill my insects. Swarm of stink bugs! *He pointed his cane out and unleashed a swarm of stink bugs, they all gasped as the stink bugs unleashed their stink. Everyone exclaimed and covered their noses. *

Riven: What is that smell?

Ellie: It's the stink bugs! We gotta get rid of them.

Zoey: (formed a ball of wind) I can help with that. Ugh! *She threw out the ball of wind and it formed a wave board. * Hurricane hurlwind! *She pushed out a gust of wind at the stink bugs and they were blown away, Hive Mind looked up looking stunned at the stink bugs flying away. He then scowled and about to fire back. *

Bloom: Fire arrow! *She shoots a stream of fire energy at Hive Mind, he was hit backwards from the blast, and nearly lost grip of his cane. * That should help. Hopefully.

Ladybug: Perfect. Now why can I use for this? *She looked around, she sees Caramel, Ellie, Madame Raya, Eagle, Zoey, Hive Mind, and his cane. Then after thinking, it finally dawned on her. * I know how we can beat him. Ladybug power! *Her earrings glowed red and she powered up. *

Black Panther: (covering his ears) How do we beat him?

Ladybug: We'll have to make the biggest can of bug spray to kill off all the bugs and make him stunned from the spray.

Blue Feather: (covering her nose) How will that help?

Ladybug: Caramel, use your powers to make the can really big.

Caramel: Okay. But will it shrink by the time Hive Mind is down?

Ladybug: It will when you use your big and small spell.

Caramel: Ahh, okay.

Ladybug: Zoey, Eagle, think you can make a powerful gust of wind to help push the bug spray mist towards the bugs and Hive Mind.

Eagle: You got it.

Zoey: Should be easy, but okay.

Ladybug: Madame Raya, Ellie, think you can use your tech spells and try to detain Hive Mind from firing off another swarm of bugs?

Ellie: If it's possible we can try.

Madame Raya: Might need Tecna's help too.

Tecna: I'll try.

Timmy: (patting Tecna's back) Good luck, Tecna.

Chatta: But what about the mindless zombies?

Ladybug: Use your powers to hold them off, even if he tries to call them, try to hold them back.

Espadon: Sounds about right. But where is the Akuma hiding on Hive Mind?

Ladybug: It's in his cane. He can summon any kind of insect he wants with it. We just have to get it from him before he can summon another swarm of bugs. And plus... *She pushed on a black dot on her yo-yo, which made a nose plug appear, and she puts it on her nose. * So we don't smell the bug spray once it's out. *They all agreed, the miraculous heroes start pulling out their nose plug, and put them on their noses too. *

Hive Mind: Ugh! Nothing is ever working against them no matter what. *Soon, the Scarlet Akuma symbol appeared in his eyes again. *

Vibrant Monarch: (in the Volcano Lair) Don't give up just yet, Hive Mind. Whatever those urchins have plans to catch your Akuma, don't let them fool you or get the better of you when you at least expect it.

Hive Mind: They won't think twice. *The scarlet Akuma symbol disappeared from his eyes, just when he was about to fire his next swarm of bugs, they all disappeared in plain sight. * What!? Grrr, where are they? *He looked around and he doesn't see them. * Come out and fight me like the heroes that you're suppose to be, cowards!

Ladybug: (whisper to Caramel) Ready, Caramel?

Caramel: Ready. *She twiddle her fingers as magic glitter appeared, she shoots out her magic on the can of bug spray, and it starts to grow. Hive Mind looked up and saw the giant can of bug spray. *

Hive Mind: What is that? Well whatever it is they got planned, they'll never foil with my play to make people enjoy bugs. Minions, attack them! *The mindless zombies started charging towards them. *

Sky: Here they come.

Leo: Should be easy to do. Time for the roar! *His eyes glistened and he roses really loud as the clouds formed Lions, which pushed some of the mindless zombies back, Layla and Anya hovered and scowled. Layla made a Morphix net to catch a few mindless zombies and Anya corrupted giant dandelions and the zombies hit the dandelions until the specks started floating all over the place. *

Hive Mind: That can't be good.

Leo: Lion power! *His glove glowed white and he powered up too. Soon, a few more started flying and flipping. *

Eagle: They can't be controlled for long. Liberation! *She starts to shoot out gold feathers on the second 10 mindless zombies, they start running around all over the place, Hive Mind scowled and gripped on his cane angrily. *

Hive Mind: What are you doing to my minions!?

Eagle: What do you think? Eagle power! *Her talon pendant glowed brick red and she powered up third, Hive Mind scowled and gritted his teeth angrily too. *

Ladybug: Okay, it's big enough. Now to give Hive Mond a dose of his own medicine. *She sprout her wings and landed on top of the button to activate the spray. * Okay, time for this to work.

Hive Mind: Hey! I command you to attack them! I say attack them now!!! *Soon, Lily stretch her arms out, which made vines appeared trying to tie up Hive Mind, but he jumped over them, point his cane out, and smirked. * Swarm of fire ants! *He shoots out fire ants, Lily gasped. *
