Second Chance is the special superpower granted by the Snake Miraculous to its owner.
Description[]
This superpower allows the user to turn back time a few minutes and give themselves another chance.
Miraculous owner[]
First, the Snake Miraculous user slides back the snake figurehead on the Miraculous to mark that moment in time. Over the course of five minutes, the figurehead slowly slides back into place. When in need, the user activates the power by sliding the snake figurehead back again.
Once activated, time is reversed to the marked moment. The Snake Miraculous user retains all memories of what happened before time was reversed, allowing them to correct any issues or mistakes that occurred in the original timeline. The moment in time remains marked in case the Snake Miraculous user needs to go back to it again.
The Snake Miraculous user can use this power as many times as they want. However, if five minutes pass without using this power, then the marked moment will be lost, and the Snake Miraculous owner won't be able to go back to that point in time anymore.
Sass[]
As shown in "Ephemeral" when Second Chance is used directly by Sass, time is reversed back to any marked moment of Sass' choosing, regardless of how long ago it was. However, it also causes numerous time anomalies, resulting in various objects and living things from multiple points in the past rapidly appearing and disappearing over a large area.
It also disrupts all the devices that use or measure the passage of time in order to function, such as clocks, traffic lights, and Wi-Fi.
Weaknesses[]
If someone knows about Second Chance, they can plot and think ahead of trap the user. As shown in "Party Crasher" when the titular villain captured Carapace, Viperion used Second Chance to prevent him from being captured. However, Party Crash predicted what Viperion is going to do and captured him. This happened again in "Miracle Queen (The Battle of the Miraculous - Part 2)" when a mind controlled Viperion used Second Chance to intercept Cat Noir, however he didn't focused on Ladybug who managed to get the Snake Miraculous.
Another way to bypass Second Chance is to intercept the user before they have a chance to activate it and putting them in a disadvantage position. As shown in "Penalteam" where one of the Penalty's clones trapped Viperion, thereby leaving him unable to use Second Chance.
