World Burn: Miraculous Darkverse Songfic
(Marc looks up from his desk dejectedly, black mascara tears streaking down at his face. Looking up, he stared at the cork bulletin board hanging on the wall facing him with pictures of his friends and boyfriend. He then looks at his phone, scrolling through hate posts made by a quartet of hateful, entitled high school girls. It was bad enough that those four spiteful girls transferred Collège Françoise Dupont when the new school year started, but for some reason, they had all decided that this week would be hell for not only Marc, but everyone who was close to him as well. All week, it was nonstop cruel prank after cruel prank and constant harassment towards his friends and boyfriend. And the worst part of all of this, Marc couldn't do anything to stop them! He wanted to stop them; so badly did he want to stand up to them, tell them off, or do anything instead of stand there shaking while images of their bullying and harassment towards Marc in the past flashed through his mind and left him unable to move or speak a word! Marc felt like he was the worst person! He couldn't stop them from making Rose cry when they called her ugly and played keep away with her wig until Cerise Leroux "accidentally" dropped her wig in a bucket of blue paint. He stood in silence as he watched Mylène's horrified expression and Ivan's anger as the former's protective boyfriend started angrily tearing down the hundreds of posters meant to body shame Mylène as each one depicted her face being photoshopped onto the body of a pig. And worst of all, he didn't have the backbone to speak out in defense when they started targeting his own boyfriend! Somehow those bitches had gotten their hands on some artwork that Nathaniel had drawn of Marc and the red-headed artist together back when Nathaniel started crushing on Marc and couldn't get him out of his thoughts, and posted the artwork on the internet for not only the whole school, but the entire world to see! They even tagged and compared it to yaoi art style and labeling Nathaniel as a "yandere". Nathaniel has been mortified to show his face since his old artwork was uploaded and hasn't been to school in two days. All this pain, all this anger, all this despair would have been enough to get Marc akumatized if he had not tried writing his feelings in his journal; a technique that he had learned in therapy to help with his anxiety.)
Why must I be broken down and forced to heel?
(As Marc writes in his journal, he spots his blue eyeshadow. The very same eyeshadow that he was too scared to wear to school again up until recently.)
This is what I get for trying, trying to be an individual
Ladies, you're gonna wish I stayed invisible
(Marc stopped writing in his journal and started looking through the mean girls quartet's social media profiles, anger coursing through his body as read through their latest posts of mocking and humiliating his friends. While scrolling, he came across a group picture of the four hate filled girls. He stared at the photo, specifically at Sara Lemieux's picture, then glanced at his thumb, the rooster miraculous sparkling gold as dark thoughts began to form in his head. His kwami, Orikko, watched his wielder in silence and started getting a bad feeling of what was about to come.)
Oh hey ladies, how will you like me nooooooowwwwwww?
(Marc uttered his transformation phrased and transformed, but was surprised to see that his superhero costume was very much different from what it usually looks like. His costume was darker, more concealing of his identity, and the aesthetics made him resemble more of a crow than a rooster. Nevertheless, the superhero was undeterred by this new revelation. Rather than question his change in appearance, he embraced it and jumped out his bedroom window to enact his plan revenge. Arriving at the school, he watched the large crowds of students, scowling as he spotting the mean girls quartet in the center possibly plotting their next act of petty cruelty. The dark superhero then activated the power of Sublimation and started rapidly writing in his journal page after page.)
I wanna watch their world burn, I got the gasoline
I wanna watch their world burn, and break their queen
I wanna watch their world burn, I got the gasoline
I wanna watch their world burn, and break their queen
(Once the dark hero had finished writing, he used his power to create multiple copies of the papers he wrote and have them fall everywhere around the school. When the puzzled students picked them, their lips suddenly turned black and their eyes glowed purple before turning their attention to the four confused mean girls and flashing them with vicious smirks. They all began to point and laugh at the quartet, their confusion rising as they could not comprehend what could have caused the school to turn against them. They then spotted a pile of paper at their feet and each picked up a copy, their faces immediately feel to looks of petrified horror as they read the contents of the paper; revealing details about each of the girls' personal lives and insults making fun of them based on their personality were written on each piece of paper. However to the girls, their papers only contained insults and revealing information about themselves.)
Ladies, time to watch your backs
Ladies, it's your time to fall
But you didn't finish me off!
(Memories of the mean girl quartet's acts of cruelty and bullying flooded in the dark hero's mind again, but this time instead of becoming overwhelmed with fear, each memory fuels his resolve and strengthens his desire for revenge! He no longer cared if this was justice or revenge. Finally, these four bitches get a chance be humiliated!)
And in case you didn't get the memo
Those bitches may have won the battle
But I will win the war, for
I wanna watch their world burn
Cerise Leroux is a fake red-headed bitch!
(Cerise looks from her paper, her lips turning black and her face turning red with such anger that it puts her most likely fake red hair to shame).
Colette Lyon is a drama-feeding slut!
(Colette's lips also turn black as she speaks up in her defense)
Drama is life people! And I am not a slut!
Yeah, keep telling yourself that, bitch!
Oh shut up, Ms. Hair-Dye!
I wanna make their world burn
Leyva's daddy's a man-whore!
(Lavender looks up from the paper, her lips also having turned black, with a deadpan expression on her face.)
Wow, low blow. Couldn't have just stick to something about my personality, huh?
(scoffs) What personality exactly?
(smirks) Yeah, I don't seem to recall you having one.
I'd rather have no personality than any of your personalities.
Why you stone-hearted little-...
(The three other girls turned to their queen bee. Sara stood staring at her paper with pure lividness. Her hands shaking with rage and her lips turning black.)
Sara is a fugly cow! Sara is a fugly cow!
(The bitch quartet immediately turned to face each other, their eyes filled with pure hatred as they started pointing accusingly at each other.)
(Night Crow watched the chaos unfold in front of him with satisfaction. The bitch quartet immediately turned on each other, blaming one another for this humiliation since the secrets that were revealed in the papers were only known by their group. Their confrontation soon turned physical as the girls started pushing at each other, pulling hair, clawing at their faces, etc. The onlookers kept laughing at them viciously, some even pulling out their phones and recording their cat fight.)
I wanna watch their world burn!
I wanna watch their world burn!
(Ladybug and Chat Noir arrive on the scene, their focus immediately falling on the dark hero on the rooftop. While they both didn't know who this chaos spreading individual at first, when Night Crow turned to face the superheroes, Ladybug immediately recognized the thumb ring he was wearing. Even though it has turned completely black, Ladybug could recognize the thumb ring as the Rooster Miraculous! The red and black spotted heroine's head began to fill with many questions and conjectures. Initially, she thought someone could've stolen the Rooster Miraculous, but given the scene that was unfolding beneath them and the fact that she was the only one who knew that Marc Anciel was the keeper of the Rooster Miraculous she found that initial theory to be unlikely. On the other hand, he could've been akumatized by the new Butterfly Miraculous villain while he was still transformed, but for some reason that theory just didn't sit right with the heroine either. Night Crow smirked at the two superheroes as he continued his song.)
I wanna watch their world burn!
I wanna make their world turn
(Ladybug and Chat Noir looked at Night Crow with puzzled expressions. Ladybug just couldn't imagine Marc Anciel, the shy, quiet writer who tried to be nice to everyone, being so vengeful. As for Chat Noir, though he thinks he doesn't know Rooster Bold personally without the mask, he does know that this behavior wasn't like him at all.)
I wanna watch their world burn!
(Night Crow falls backwards off the roof. Ladybug throws her yo-yo to try to catch him, but she wasn't quick enough and he fell out of the yo-yo's range before it could wrap around him. Ladybug and Chat Noir quickly ran to the edge of the rooftop to see where Night Crow landed, but instead found that the dark hero had vanished.)\

Yeah, I wrote another songfic. This one's been in my head longer than the "Beautiful" songfic and I finally found the motivation to write it. Initially, I was going to have Marc become Reverser again, but then I got the idea to turn this into like an anti-hero type of song but instead of getting akumatized by Chrysalis, Marc's emotions would cause his superhero transformation to change his costume completely, kind of like with Fury since it's established that can happen to Miraculous holders.
A few notes about the songfic:
The power that Night Crow gave himself allowed the paper that he wrote on to reveal information about the Bitch Quartet when he wrote on it. All he had to do was write their names on the paper and once the students touched the paper, it would reveal their secrets to them depending on whose name they got. As for the girls, since they already knew this information about themselves, their information got converted into everyone's opinions and/or insults about them.
Night Crow's power kind of works like a combination of Reverser and Dark Cupid's powers. Instead of reversing someone's personality, the paper reveals information and turns the ones who touch the paper against whoever's name is on it.
The blue eyeshadow from the beginning of the song plays a role in Marc's Bullied Arc in the Darkverse. Basically, when Marc started wearing makeup at his old school he got bullied for it and he eventually stopped wearing the eyeshadow, despite it being his favorite.
Hope you all like this songfic and if you did, please leave a like, comment, or reblog. As always, it's great to hear what you have to say about my posts. Hope everyone has a great New Year's Eve and Day.
