"Right now Alita along with her symbiotic companion were now traveling down to the underworld to where they would face the newly upgraded Grewishka. The adrenaline going through her was like if Venom was sharing his emotions, she felt like she was on the hunt for this monster that has killed many innocents in the town. All she knew that this had to end with them killing the cyborg, otherwise he would keep continuing as well serve under Nova. Who Venom hasn't forgotten as the male cyborg could be a lead into finding a way into Zalem and right to Nova, Alita traveling deeper into the ground she soon lands on the ground to which she was now surrounded in darkness. Buildings destroyed, ruins of a lost civilization which was forgotten during the war."


So far the girl stood in the dirt and rubble of the area having the distinct feeling of being right where he wanted them to be, gripping her fists she didn't let her anger take over as this was his domain now. As well Venom's since he has lived here long enough to know how to survive, looking around to see any signs of Grewishka she soon hears a hefty laughter from the shadows as it sounded directly like him.

"Welcome to the underworld, from here there are worlds beyond worlds that stretch miles beyond what you can imagine."

He spoke to her as she notices the shadow of him standing in front of her as well walking outward looking at her, she notices that the rest of his body was well armored and had weaponry which appeared to have something of a assault weapon as well the chest had speakers.

"He has sonic based weapons as well as flamethrowers. Weaknesses to us, we cannot aid you until you take them out."

Alita: "Got it, just keep me alert for anything."

Replying back to him as she stood firm as the girl notice the man's evil smile at her as if he knew something about Alita.

Grewishka: "Your little friend in there, is he afraid to come out to play?"

Mocking Venom due at him having the weapons that can harm him, Alita merely gave him a look as she noticed a small like metal beam on the ground. Walking to it as she places her foot on it as well looking at him.

Grewishka: "Afraid that I might tear him apart, as well you flea? After what I'll do to you, your going wish you die."

Alita: "You first."

Talking back at him as she kicks up the beam and throws it at his chest as his metal tendrils slashes through it. Chuckling at her, the man soon shoots out the tendrils at her with lighting fast precision as the girl quickly dodged them. She may not have Venom's abilities at her side but Alita didn't need them to take him on, doing some flips as well avoiding him he merely swings them at her faster as each tendril slashed through the rocks around her.

Grewishka: "Dance little flea!"

Shouting at her which the mad cyborg soon makes it interesting as he aims his left arm at her and soon fires a powerful stream of fire. Alita not thinking quickly, Venom stretches out a tentacle from her back and pulled her out of the way to another area in which the cyborg followed her. Watching him run, Alita merely kept up the chase as she soon hid from his sight as Grewishka got irritated.

Grewishka: "My master told me of you two after the upgrade, that you were a URM soldier who was lost in the scrapyard. As well your pet, who's responsible for your kind."

Talking to her about Alita's past as she soon tenses up, shocking by this new information she held her heart feeling like it stopped for a moment.

Grewishka: "You didn't know did you? That the one, Venom? Has killed over twenty URM soldiers as well destroyed a warship of yours. It must stings really bad knowing that you two are monsters that have killed each of your own kinds, and now being together. Quite the joke that is!"

Shouting at her to draw Alita out which she merely felt anger coming from her as she couldn't take it any longer, not believing a he said she runs out with a battle cry alerting her presence as he smirks. Shooting out his tendrils again, Alita dodges them moving left to right as she soon leaps right in mid air about to attacking him as well stretching her right arm at him she roars right at him ready to deliver a blow.

Flashback

Right now in the warship was Alita battling with another of her kind, a much older woman as well the two of them in a gravity like orb as the two were battling with knives. The two were sparring with each other as Alita was placed in a arm lock and had a knife at her hip.

"Never let your anger take over in the fight, it will get you killed."

Telling her in a harsh manner as Alita tried to get out the hold but the woman was much more experienced and kept the girl in the hold. Alita, calming her breathing merely stops as the hold on the woman lets go as the two soon look at the hologram of a man with white hair along with blue eyes.

"The only way you need to use your anger, is to aim it at the enemy. When you have it under your control, you can use it in ways you'll never know of."

Telling her as Alita merely nods to her as well understanding about controlling her emotions in battle as well aiming it at holographic enemy that was the enemy. The image soon changes to showing a massive firefight of both URM and Symbiotes battling one another as Venom was caught in the middle of the fight, he saw his brothers being blasted to pieces as well burned alive while his kind was tearing them apart limb from limb. The black skin symbiote merely reacted to one coming up to him as his tentacle went right through him, being shocked by what he had done he removes his tentacle from the lifeless body as he soon began killing others that were coming after him. Venom soon began killing more and more until his mind wasn't thinking as he was only acting of his true instincts, a symbiotic killing monster."

Flashback ends

Coming back into reality, Alita felt like she was about to punch right in Grewishka's face but soon gasps as she was shocked that she didn't land a blow. He did, his tendrils ripped her entire body apart making her merely a body with one right arm. The rest of her body was ripped off as she landed in the ground wounded and hurt, looking at herself as well the massive man walking towards her in predatory like manner.

Grewishka: "Running away aren't you? Not wanting to play anymore flea? Maybe your monster of a freak might."

In which he begins to play the sound amplifiers which caused her to feel a extreme amount of pain due to the connection she and Venom had together. Screaming in pain her body reacted violently as the black slime in her was showing making the cyborg laugh mockingly at her.\

Grewishka: "Even in defeat, your still pathetic. The two of you clinging together like vermin, just like the ones I killed during the war."

Speaking at her about how he killed a few of her URM kind which had Alita merely get angry, the man soon grabs her by the head and lifts her up as the sound kept going which caused Venom to react violently within her.

Grewishka: "Maybe instead of killing you two, I should melt you down and attaching yourself to my armor. As well for your freak friend, I'll use him. Consider it mercy to the fact your screams will be the only thing alive and for me to here, do you want that mercy?!"

Growling at her which Alita gritted her teeth as well having no control of her anger, she lets out the symbiote in her shoot out from her chest and right into his as they were able to rip the sound amplifiers off him making him move back. They soon deactivate as well were destroyed as Alita soon landed on the ground with one hand, focusing on hold the pose she notices him growing as he was going to shoot his metal tendrils at her which it was time to cut loose. Soon enough she pushes herself off the ground in which Venom soon appears growing some new limbs that could keep her safe as he webs one of her arms. The cyborg watched the transformation as he took Alita's Dismembered arm and jams it into his right eye.

Venom: "Fuck your mercy!"

Swearing at him as he soon grabs his chest and throws him at the ground as well webs the flamethrower off his left arm, looking at Grewishka he was now angered as he was more in control than Alita.

"No!"

Shouted a familiar voice as Venom turned to see Ido along with McTeague and his hell hounds helping them, the hounds attacked the wounded cyborg as Grewishka was unable to attack due to the pain that was in his eye as the dogs made him run into the tunnels.

Ido: "Where's Alita?"

Venom: "She is in us, we are keeping her alive. We must return her back to the clinic."

Answering him as he opened his chest showing a passed out Alita with her limbs torn off as the doctor looked in horror of what happened. Soon enough the dog master called off his hounds as they soon came back to him as he still had Buddy by his side.

Mcteague: "I guess your her man right?"

Asking Venom which he nodded as the dog soon barks recognizing the beast as a owner which the man merely sighs.

Mcteague: "The dog likes ya, so I guess I'd consider you a friend."

Venom: "Bring back Buddy to the clinic, we shall head back."

Asking him which the beast soon moved passed the two as well leaping out of the hole as well from the bar making a hole through the roof as well shocking the rest of the hunters. Venom feeling Alita still injured let out a angered roar at how the cyborg hurt her which most of the people saw. Especially Leela and Jerry who heard about Alita starting a fight, the two saw the black creature above the building as well the people as Venom leaped across the buildings making his escape.

Leela: "That thing is heading to Alita's home."

Jerry: "I know how to take that thing down, come on."

Responding to her as the two friends head back to her home to which they would arm themselves to fight Venom while walking out of the bar, was Mcteague and Ido who were walking out as well having the crowd look at the two as well Chiren was there as well.

Chiren: "It's never easy trying to walk away, the past always come back."

Telling the doctor as he didn't listen as the two soon headed back to the clinic, as they left she soon entered inside of the bar and noticed the massive hole in the ground as well blood. Though what she happen to notice, as a piece of black slime near some blood that was spilled on the ground, pulling out a small vile she scoops up the slime as well it touching the blood as this kind of reaction could be useful to Nova. Getting up quickly she soon leaves the bar to head back to the lab to which her 'experiment' would be needing of repairing and see what his master will have to say to this incident.


Back at the clinic, Alita was on the table with her eyes shut as well resting on the bed by the berserker body. Ido was going to proceed with the operation as he notices Venom coming out looking at the doctor.

Ido: "In order to do this, you must be in another body in order for this to work."

Telling the symbiote as he looked at the old man, he couldn't bond with him due to the focus he needed to concentrate on fixing Alita. Luckily Mcteague was there as he sighs which he gets off from his chair showing his robotic hand to the doctor.

McTeague: "I've always heard about your kind being able to tear apart a man without needing any enchantments. Can you still bond with another?"

Venom: "We only require a host with emotional pain as anger deep within them."

McTeague: "Then by all means slime sack, come right in. Cause I got enough to last you much longer than.."

Before he could finish his sentence, the symbiote soon enters the dogmasters body which he soon gasps at how it felt, though eventually rushing through the doors was Leela and Jerry as they had on some equipment that could handle Venom as they rush over to stop it.

Ino: "Hang on just stop!"

Telling everyone as the two teena stop as he needed to focus on helping Alita as the two notice her heavliy injuried. They looked shocked as they still kept their defenses up when Venom came out of McTeague's back as they look terrified.

Leela: "Sir, that's a symbiote! A monster alien killing nightmare!"

McTeague: "He can hear you fine kid while for me. Stop screaming. If it wasn't for this bug here on my back, the girl wouldn't be here now won't she?"

Asking them which the two friends looked shocked as they looked at Alita who was being repaired with the body she found at the lake.

Jerry: "What happened?"

Ido: "She was fighting aganist a mad cyborg, Grewishka. Barely got out of there with just minor injuries, Venom was able to make it due to Venom's bond with her."

Explaining as the Symbiote came out of McTeague's back as he looked at the two teens with a smile, Leela looked creeped out as well Jerry as they went over to check if their friend was alright. Although Venom, merely was thinking about what Alita called him, "Boyfriend?". A word that no one has called him, was it because was it to intimidate the hunters or was it to make them know there was someone that would fight by her side? All he knew was that during the fight she saw his memories of killing URM soliders, if she was to wake up he thought it be best if she didn't see him.

"McTeague, would you like to experience killing a cyborg with your bare hands?"

McTeague: "What are you talking about?"

"He tried to harm Buddy infront of you. As well would tear apart your hellhounds, also that we can sense you miss your arms and legs."

Speaking about his missing human arms and legs, he takes a look at them merely thinking about how he missed the feeling to pet his dogs as well being able to touch things. Gripping his fists tight as well having a chance to not miss the opportunity to feel him punching someone with his bare hands, he merely chuckles but soon goes away as he looks at his dogs giving them a command to stay here with the doctor as he heads out to the door.

Ido: "Where are you going?"

He asked noticing the warrior walking to the door as he removes his hat as he was cleaning it, looking at the three people as well the dogs merely smiled at them.

McTeague: "Well, seeing as how we just saw a big metallic bastard come into my hangout after me getting a good bounty. Ruin my resting time with my boys as well try to harm a dog right in front of us."

He stops talking as his body soon began to cover in the black symbiote flesh, his robotic arms became muscular as well his hands became claw like. The brown coat on him grows as well became a long jacket as the white lines grow around him. Soon Venom appeared onto his face as he place the hat back on him trying to look fashionable.

Venom: "So we, will be hunting tonight. Keep Alita safe, we shall return."

Asking them to watch over her as the two soon walked out to hunt down Grewishka while everyone looked shocked at how Venom could instantly transform over the old man as well leave the room.

Jerry: "Even with the history of what their kind did to the world, that was seriously sick."

Pointing out how the western symbiote looked as the others looked at Alita as she was still healing, though what was strange was that she smiled. This expression on her face was that of bliss as she felt calm, was it because of Venom leaving her? Or was it because of the Berserker body doing it's work as it was slowly assimilating with her core as well changing into a female body to fit her needs. They all watched her in hope she could recover soon while Venom, was right now on a different path right now. There was a agenda on his mind that put his anger on Nova on hold, it was to make sure the robot would never harm any woman as well Alita, who Venom wanted to avenge her by making the warrior of Nova scream through the entire night so that everyone will no, there would be no mercy for the guilty.

Later on

Right now in a torn down building was the wounded cyborg Grewishka, who was looking at mirror of his wounded eye as it didn't look that bad. Still feeling of the pain that Alita placed her dismembered arm in his right eye, he merely groaned and ignored it as he removed the body part moments ago. Right now he looked at a mirror showing his empty eye socket as he puts a bandana over it as he merely growls at how he was humiliated again by her, though luckily he was able to steal some weaponry that could help him take on Venom if he came by for vengeance. He had some knives, axes as well a few fire like bombs that help him ward off the creature.

Grewishka: "That bitch, once I get back. I'll arm myself with something bigger, as well squish her like a bug. As well tear that slime ball apart."

Speaking in a violent like tone in which he continued to look at the weapons he took from other hunters during his escape as he didn't notice the hearing of something with him in the building. Venom, along with McTeague were lurking in the shadows observing the cyborg the old hunter as he merely thought this was the strangest feeling he had for a while.

"Feels weird, being in one man and not doing anything. Though, I'll be able to deliver the punches right? Been a while since these two hands chocked someone out."

Venom: "Yes, do whatever you wish. But, make it painful."

The symbiote whispered to him as McTeague took most control of the action as he began climbing amongst the shadows as they kept watching the cyborg as Grewishka noticed, not taking a moment to look he throws a fire bomb and throws it at the wall making it exploded as there was nothing. Getting up, he looks around seeing nothing there as he could tell there was something here with him.

Grewishka: "So, came back to avenge your little flea of a girl right? Came back because I told her what a monster you are?"

Mocking the creature again as he heard nothing of small crumbling on the ground as well the wood creaking, soon he heard a light turned on in which Grewishka heard as he turned looking at old warrior smoking a cigar looking at him. The old man merely chuckled at what he spoke of as the cyborg didn't know why he was here.

McTeague: "Well, I'm here to teach you what happens when you try and kill a dog in front of me. Also, V wanted to kill you. So, we can it a win-win situation."

Smiling as the cyborg shoots out his right metal tendrils at him which McTeague leaps across the wall without using the suit, he missed being able to move like this as he throws the cigar at Grewishka's face catching him off guard. Soon he pushes his metallic feet and begins attacking with punches, colliding with the giants face he kept punching left to right till the attacks lead to Grewhiska fall to the ground causing the floor to collapse. The two brawled one another as they soon landed on the ground punching one another, the giant cyborg kicks him to the wall as McTeague soon changes into his Venom form as the creature snarls at him.

Grewhiska: "Ah, so the freak is out now. Was getting bored of the.."

Soon he is silence by the fist that punches him right in the jaw, while Venom was the armor for the old man the hunter took control of the movement as he did some fighting like moving that caught the giant off guard.

Venom: "What you know of Mercy has no meaning in the eyes of the symbiote!"

He told the killer as the old man catches one of his arms and rips off his left arm, soon he begins beating him with it left to right as he slams it into the ground.

Venom: "We don't give mercy, we take and kill who stand in our way!"

Telling him again rather angry as he soon shoots out a tendril which became a dog like tentacle as it bites off most of his metal, soon enough he moves back making Grewhiska lose his focus during the chaotic attacking him as merely lets out a angered expression.

Venom: "And what you spoke to Alita, will never be forgotten. So you, stole her of what happiness she had. As well the body that gave her a new life!"

As he releases most of the tendrils out of him which changes into open like mouths as well took the form of dogs, they began tearing through the metallic armor of Grewishka's body left to right as he could merely scream during this. No stopping for a second the more the tendrils ripped off his body as McTeague could sense the emotions irritating off the creature like it was a rocket, the more he continue the more he was losing the self that Alita help made as the old man soon stops him.

"That's enough kid, this bastard is already scrap."

Giving Venom the notice that it was done, he was now looking at a torn up and destroyed body of Grewhiska as he was no silent, shaking in fear of the Symbiote as he looked at the destroyed body. Though his expression changed showing light blue eyes as it was like the time when Alita saw one of his members being used as a puppet.

"Venom, how you have changed. Where's the girl? Is she destroyed?"

Nova's voice coming from his lips in which the symbiote merely growled at the voice as he remained calmed, he merely kept his cool looking at the destroyed body.

"So she isn't, a pity. And I had high hope for Grewhiska to take her so I might see her core. It could be a greater use to me, as well you. If you require to give it to me. For this, I can help you find the rest of your kind on earth. None of them died, they escaped across the world and now are hiding. Bring me the girl, and you can get your family back."

Trying to offer him a choice to betray his host as well take her heart, Venom thinking to himself about seeing his brethren again as well uniting with them. Though, betraying Alita, was something personal since she had shared with him her emotions as well how she showed him to be good. He grips his hand tight as well plunging it deep into the cyborg's chest as well squeezing it tight, his white eyes looking at Nova's he merely looked angered at him.

Venom: "We may have killed her species, as well others during our time in the stars. But, I will never, hurt Alita. So take your offer, and choke on it."

Saying it through his teeth as he rips out his robotic heart and crushes it in one blow, during this it caused the cyborg to shutdown for good leaving Grewhiska a lifeless body as the creature merely drops it on the ground.

"Huh, aren't you going eat his brains or something?"

Venom: "No, I will not have this man's flesh in me. It would poison myself as well Alita having this killer with us."

Speaking on Alita's behalf as the men he had eaten, this one would be a pass as Venom left the body to be forgotten from everyone as he webs back to the clinic to see if everyone was alright. Though without noticing, a feline came through a hole in the wall as it's eyes were silver like which it soon walked over to the head of Grewishka. Sniffing the head it's right hand soon became a claw and the car opens up Grewishka's head right open, it soon begins to eat the brains as well being able to taste the memories of what this man has saw.

"Venom, you fool."

The symbiote thinking to himself as he would take that offer Nova gave to Venom, except he would do something more for himself as well for his fellow kind. He then continued to eat the brains of the cyborg to get the taste of brains again and soon would look for a body that could help him do something that would make him powerful again as well reunite with it's lost kind to do what most symbiotes do best, conquering worlds.
