A pair of gleaming yellow eyes surveys the heroes from the branches of a large plane tree. Kaa, the sly serpent, slips unnoticed along the thick limbs. The city’s familiar hum masks the faint slither of scales, and the night seems peaceful—deceptively so.
Ladybug[/@ch_1] pauses, glancing around, as a glint catches her eye. Chat Noir leans in, curiosity piqued.]
Kaa’s hypnotic eyes spiral with mesmerizing color, reflecting in the pupils of the startled heroes. Their bodies tense, then relax, as the trance deepens. The world blurs, all sound fading but the rhythmic, coiling hiss.
Ladybug[/@ch_1] and Chat Noir stand motionless, bathed in Kaa’s hypnotic glow.]
"You will listen, little heroes. Let go of your defenses," Kaa’s voice echoes, smooth and commanding. Ladybug and Chat Noir move slowly and mechanically, their actions dictated by the serpent’s will, as their costumes loosen and fall away, fluttering in the cool Parisian air.
The heroes’ faces are blank, lost in the trance, as Kaa’s grip tightens, binding them together. Their hands find each other, guided by hypnotic suggestion—"You cannot resist. You belong to me now,"—a chilling intimacy in the moonlit silence.

One by one, they disappear, swallowed slowly and inexorably into the serpent’s belly. The city beyond is unaware, lights twinkling peacefully as the last of their forms vanish beneath scales.
Ladybug[/@ch_1] and Chat Noir awaken from their trance, panic and confusion etched on their faces.]
They struggle, pressing against the unyielding flesh, muffled cries lost in the darkness. Tears streak their cheeks as the heat and tightness intensify, the slow process of digestion beginning with a painful inevitability.
Inside, Ladybug and Chat Noir hold each other, their bodies weakening as hot digestive fluids begin to dissolve their forms. In the darkness, their quiet sobs and whispered goodbyes fade, lost amid the sounds of Parisian night.
