I own nothing but the story.

Inside Dante's mind

The power of a demon, the enhanced strength of a symbiote. Inside his mind, Dante found himself in darkness, his mind clouded and uncertain of anything. As he looked around in silence, another voice was heard from within the darkness.

"Dante, why are we waiting? Why don't we crush these insignificant fools?" the voice asked as Dante closed his eyes, his head throbbing in pain.

"Shut the hell up!" Dante shouted as he reached down to the holster strapped to his leg, but his gun was gone. He reached onto his back, but his sword was also nowhere to be found. As Dante squinted his eyes through the darkness, two eyes were able to be seen in the distance. The two eyes were pure white, misshaped and irregular. The same eyes that were focused on Dante not many minutes ago...

"Venom!" Dante exclaimed as the darkness closed in on him, the voice chuckling as Dante was choked by the black ooze.

"So, you remember my name," the symbiote murmured as it spread over Dante's body. "Soon, this entire body will be mine. I would rather have Spider-Man, but you will be sufficient for now." Dante growled angrily as his eyes widened in shock, his entire body being wrapped within what looked like a black ooze cocoon.

Meanwhile, Deadpool, Spider-Man, and Trish were fighting against the symbiote Dante, who was easily overpowering the three fighters.

"Hey, watch the birdie!" Deadpool shouted as he pointed his gun in Dante's face, Dante snickering as he took Deadpool's arm and snapped it. Deadpool howled in pain as Dante then tripped him and slammed him into the ground with the butt of Rebellion. Without any warning, Dante brought the edge of Rebellion into Deadpool's face, Deadpool's entire skull being smash in half by the attack. Deadpool's body fell limply to the ground as Spider-Man and Trish jumped into action, Spider-Man coming from air and Trish running in underneath him. Dante chuckled as he threw his sword at the strand of web Spider-Man was swinging on, making Spider-Man lose his balance. Dante then used the symbiote to reach over and grab Spider-Man, Spider-Man struggling as Dante laughed evilly.

"Stop it Dante!" Trish shouted as she prepared to attack him, Dante simply tossing Spider-Man at her. The two collided together, falling to the ground.

"It's showtime!" Dante roared as the symbiote increased in size, Dante seemingly losing more control of the symbiote. Spider-Man groaned as he pulled himself up, helping Trish to her feet as well.

"Great, he's being consumed by the power of the symbiote," Spider-Man announced as he rubbed the back of his head in a circular motion. "We need to find some way to separate him from the suit, or we might be in a lot of trouble."

"And how the hell do you expect us to do this?" Trish asked as she wiped a strand of blood from the side of her mouth.

"Ow, man getting your head smashed in sucks," Deadpool muttered as he pulled himself up from the ground, Trish gasping as she witnessed this.

"What type of regeneration abilities do you have?' Trish asked as Deadpool snickered.

"Lady, I'm like Superman without the cape," Deadpool answered as he did a heroic pose. "Allow me to show you the awesome abilities of the one and only super bad ass Deadpool!" Deadpool unsheathed his swords off his back and went running at Dante, Dante laughing manically as he went into a defensive position. Deadpool began to clash with Dante wildly, slashing at Dante with amazing speed as Dante simply blocked with Rebellion just as quickly. They seemed evenly matched until Dante sent his sword at Deadpool's chest, Deadpool blocking the sword with both of his swords.

Within Dante's mind, Dante was beginning to get agitated from the symbiote. The symbiote was slowly but surely trying to boot Dante out of his own mind, which was currently going pretty smoothly for the symbiote.

"Alright, parties over symbiote," Dante muttered as he tried to pull out of the black cocoon. "How you gonna throw a swinging party out there and not invite me?"

"Shut the hell up you foolish demon!" the symbiote screamed as Dante chuckled in response.

"Oh, I see I'm going to have to crash this party!" Dante shouted as he activated his Devil Trigger, the symbiote gasping as Dante let out a tremendous roar.

Outside, Deadpool looked on as blood leaked out of his mouth, Dante roaring as the symbiote came crawling off his body.

"Now you aren't invited to the party!" Dante shouted as he pulled out Ebony and Ivory and began to shoot up the the symbiote on the ground, the symbiote whining in pain as Dante snickered.

"What a piece of garbage," Trish murmured as she pulled her sunglasses on his face and walked from the scene. "Dante, you owe me big time for this one…"

"Dammit, I already owe Lady a shit load of cash!" Dante shouted as Trish gave him a little wave, Spider-Man watching on chuckling softly.

Yeah, I've been gone for so long… I'm really really sorry! But I've been busy, so I had to make this a quick chapter. Next chapter will be longer and feature Wolverine and the X-Men! Stay tuned!
