Spider-Man's ultimate challenge
Last time so did George reveal to Peter that he knew his secret and Peter fought against Carnage as Spider-Venom and almost took him out but thanks to the police so did he get away, what is Carnage planning and can Peter find him and stop him while keeping himself under control?
Chapter 8- The return of the Sinister Six
Peter was waking up after a long night, it had gone three days since the battle with Carnage which means it was Thursday, he had been looking for Carnage day and night but hadn't found him yet, he didn't know why he was so hard to find but he knew one thing for sure, that he wouldn't give up until he found him and stopped him for good.
He just wondered what kind of lies Jameson would say about him today, he had kept taken pictures of himself since he needed money but it hadn't been fun.
FLASHBACK,
Peter was walking into the Daily Bugle, once he got out of the elevator so heard he Jameson scream like usual, "LEE, IF I DON'T HAVE THE STORY OF THAT SPIDER-MENACE AND HIS NEW LOOK ON MY DESK IN 0.5432 SECONDS SO ARE YOU FIRED!" Need came running with the story and gave it to Jameson, Peter walked in and threw a few pictures of Spider-Venom battling Carnage on Jameson's desk.
"These are crap Parker, but I'm nice so you get 100 bucks for all four", Peter took the photos and began to walk out, "PARKER, WHERE DO YOU THINK YOU'RE GOING?" Peter looked at him, "You pay me what they are really worth or you won't get them".
Everyone looked shocked at Peter, he had changed, Jameson muttered for himself as he wrote a check on 400 bucks but at the same time so was he a little concerned about Peter's suddenly change of behavior, Peter took the check and threw the pictures back on the desk before he walked out of the office.
END OF FLASHBACK,
Peter walked down for breakfast and saw his aunt May smile at him, "Good morning dear, have you slept well?" Peter nodded before he sat down and began to eat his breakfast, May looked at him a little worried, she had noticed him getting angrier and angrier for each passing day, she wanted to help him but he wouldn't tell her what was wrong.
A few minutes later so was Spider-Venom swinging towards Midtown High, he knew that he would have to deal with Captain Stacy that wanted him to get rid of the symbiote. Spider-Venom had reached the school and the symbiote took the form of a shirt again.
While Peter was walking down the corridor so could he hear everyone talk about the news of Spider-Venom, everyone seemed to think that he was better before, he suddenly passed Gwen and Harry, "Spider-Man finally reveal his true self, that he's a no good killer who doesn't care who he hurts", Harry said.
Peter stopped and looked at Harry, "You know Harry, maybe you should try and see it from another angle, Spider-Man tried to stop your dad from ruling the city from the criminal underworld, and besides, didn't he frame you of being the Green Goblin? I think that he would have deserved to get thrown in jail". Harry stared at him with anger in his eyes and Gwen with worry and sadness in hers, she didn't know what was going on with Peter but he was changing and not for the better, she had only seen this side of him when his aunt had a heart attack.
The bell rang and prevented that an argument began, Peter walked into their English class, he answered all questions the teacher asked, but he was more focused on finding Carnage.
WITH DOCTOR OCTOPUS,
Doc Ock was once again watching the news about Spider-Venom, "Interesting, so the arachnid and this alien creature has combined, I would like to test this Spider-Venom's full power, time for the Sinister Six to return".
AN HOUR LATER WITH PETER,
Peter was walking out of his English lesson and saw George Stacy stand there waiting for him, Peter's eyes narrowed and he walked past George then the Captain grabbed his arm, Peter looked at him, "Let go of my arm". George looked at him, "Pete, we really need to talk, alone" He said as he saw Gwen and Mary Jane come towards them, Peter growled but didn't do anything to escape, it would look really bad if he hurt George.
"Dad what is going on?" Gwen asked worried as she saw him hold Peter's arm, "It's nothing to worry about Gwen, I just need to talk to…", Before George could finish so did he see Peter look around, his spider sense had gone of, suddenly so did something smack a big hole in the wall a little down the corridor, everyone began running and screaming and Peter got ready then he saw Dock Ock, Rhino and Electro that had managed to escape from the vault, Vulture, Kraven and Shocker who had rejoined the team.
George took out his gun and looked at Gwen and Mary Jane, "Get away from here now", they nodded and was about to leave then they saw Peter run in the opposite direction of the exits, they looked at each other and nodded, they began to follow him. They saw Peter go into an empty classroom, the door was not completely closed so they walked over to the door silently and opened it slightly and looked inside, they saw Peter standing in the room and he closed his eyes.
Then to their shock so began his shirt to move, it expanded over his body, it went down his arms that got short spikes a little below the elbows and his fingers had claws, it went down his legs and he got black pants and black boots, it went over his front and back of his body and on both sides so did a big white spider appear and finally it went over his head forming a black mask with big white eyes, and to their shock so was Spider-Venom standing there Peter Parker had stood a few seconds earlier.
Spider-Venom took and opened the window and jumped out, not aware that Gwen and MJ had seen him change, the girls opened the door and walked shocked into the room, looking at the spot there Peter formerly known as Spider-Man but now known as Spider-Venom, had stood. Gwen felt like her entire world had been turned upside down, "Pete… Pete has been Spider-Man this whole time, he have risked his life dozens of times trying to help people. Now his sudden change of behavior makes sense, that symbiote he has on draws out the darkness within someone and makes it stronger, turning a person darker, Peter put that thing on even though he knew the danger to stop that Carnage guy".
While Gwen was talking so were tears building up in her eyes, Peter did something he really didn't want to do in order to stop a crazy villain, even though he might lose himself to the symbiote.
WITH SPIDER-VENOM,
The Sinister Six was causing panic in the corridor before they heard a window break and then the door to a classroom got kicked down and out came Spider-Venom, Doc Ock smiled, "Excellent, I knew that attacking a high school full with students would draw you out, now let's see how good that alien suit of yours are and if it's worth taking from you and find a way to mass produce and sell to criminals who is willing to pay".
Doc Ock ordered the others to attack and Vulture flew towards Spider-Venom, he could have avoided the old man but he decided to quickly take him out and therefore let Vulture collide with him, he quickly flipped up on Vulture's back and ripped of his suits left wing, making Vulture unable to steer and Spider-Venom steered him into the lockers denting them greatly and knocked Vulture unconscious.
But as Spider-Venom landed so unleashed Electro and Shocker a combined attack that sent Spider-Venom flying through the corridor and through a wall out on the schoolyard, he fell to the ground and was hurt a bit, but he was recovering quickly, he got up in time to see Kraven coming down towards him. Kraven slashed him and slashed the suit a few times but it just repaired itself and he was about to punch Kraven then his Spider sense went of and he jumped out of the way for another sonic blast, he landed and ran towards Shocker, Kraven got in the way trying to stop him but Spider-Venom kicked him out of the way and continued towards Shocker who released one sonic blast after another but Spider-Venom dodged them all.
He reached Shocker and slashed out with his razor sharp claws and cut the blasters of Shocker's arms before delivering a powerful uppercut sending him flying up in the air before a black web connected with one of his legs and Spider-Venom slammed him into the ground hard enough to make pieces of the ground fly up, Shocker tried to get up but lost consciousness.
Spider-Venom's spider sense went of and jumped out of the way then Kraven rammed his claws into the ground there he had just been standing, he shot a web and hit Kraven in the chest and pulled him towards himself and kicked the lion man in the chest sending him flying through a wall, he then saw Octopus tentacles coming towards him.
Spider-Venom flipped backwards and landed on all for and looked at Doc Ock, "You're slower than a snail compare to me Octopus, you will never hit me with those tentacles of yours". Doctor Octopus growled and sent all four of his tentacles at Spider-Venom, that however was exactly what Spider-Venom wanted him to do, while he jumped between his tentacles so did he cross his arms and the spikes grew into blades, he then began to spin in the air and cut all four tentacles to pieces.
Doc Ock backed away as he saw his tentacles get cut to pieces, without them so was he defenseless, Spider-Venom was walking towards him then Electro jumped in front of Ock and began to shot electricity towards him. MJ and Gwen had come out just as Spider-Venom slammed Shocker into the ground and saw him destroy Octopus's arms and was now dodging Electro's attacks, Gwen and MJ was really worried about Peter and was hoping that he would be okay.
Spider-Venom dodged another attack from Electro then he saw Rhino coming running towards him, Rhino threw a punch at him, but to everyone's shock so stopped he the punch with ease and with just one hand, Electro began to shot electricity again and Spider-Venom jumped over Rhino who got hit and was stunned, while Rhino was stunned so used Spider-Venom his ability to stick to object and stuck his fingers to Rhino's back and once again to everyone's shock, lifted Rhino over his head and then threw him at Electro.
Electro didn't have time to dodge and Rhino fell onto him, Electro began to panic and released a massive amount of electricity knocking Rhino out while Electro began to pass out as well from the pressure of Rhino's weight. Kraven roared and ran towards Spider-Venom who now sidestepped every attack Kraven threw at him, Spider-Venom continued doing that for a while before he began to taunt Kraven, "Look at the great hunter, you're pathetic Kraven". That was the final straw, Kraven went ballistic, he jumped towards Spider-Venom and was going to bite his head off. But Spider-Venom sidestepped and delivered eight hard punches to Kraven's face before sending him flying with a hard kick in the head knocking him out.
Octopus didn't believe his eyes, in just moments so had Spider-Venom knocked out five of the Sinister Six and had crippled him by destroying his arms, he began to walked to Octopus who was backing away in fear, Spider-Venom reached Octopus and a blade came out from his right wrist, he grabbed the little fat man and lifted him of the ground, Octopus tried to break free but without his arms so was he just a normal person, he couldn't matched Spider-Venom's amplified superhuman strength.
"And here I thought you might actually put up a challenge, but I guess I was wrong, and now DIE DOC OCK!" Spider-Venom prepared to stab his blade into Ock's skull then he heard, "NO DON'T DO IT!" Spider-Venom looked to the right and saw Gwen and Mary Jane come towards him, both had tears in their eyes, Gwen looked at him while she was begging, "Please don't do it, this isn't you, don't let that thing ruin who you really are". Spider-Venom began to struggle with his decision, Peter didn't want to see Gwen cry because of his feelings for her so he was fighting the symbiote to stop it. Spider-Venom took and looked at Ock one last time, "You're lucky these girls are here doc", he then backhanded octopus into the wall knocking him out, he looked at the girls one last time before he shot a web and swung away.
LATER THAT EVENING,
Peter was lying on his bed in a bad mood, after the battle with the Sinister Six so had he once again been looking for Carnage but still couldn't find him, he couldn't understand where Carnage could be hiding, he had looked at every possible hiding spots in the city, he had even been in the sewers but he was nowhere to be seen.
He can't hide forever, I will find Carnage and I'm going to finish him off, and then I will end the crimes in New York for good, Peter thought just as his cell phone began to ring.
Peter took up his cell phone and saw that it was Gwen, he answered, "Hello Gwen, what do you want?", "Pete, me and MJ need to talk to you, can you come to my house right now?" Peter sighed and said that he would be there soon.
A FEW MINUTES LATER,
Spider-Venom landed in between two houses and the symbiote took the form of a shirt again and walked towards Gwen's house that was on the other side of the street, he knocked on the door and Gwen opened the door with Mary Jane behind her.
"Where is your dad Gwen? I can't see his car here", Gwen looked at him, "He's not home right now Peter, now come in". Peter walked in but stopped in the hall much to the girls confusion, "Let's do this quickly because I have something to do". Gwen sighed and began, "Peter we saw you change into Spider-Venom earlier today". Peter got shocked when he heard that, but before he could say anything so said MJ: "Peter, this isn't you, it's that alien, you have to get rid of it before it takes you over completely, we can see that there still some pieces of the real you inside of you, please reject that thing before it's too late".
Peter looked at the girls and then he began to laugh, much to the girls shock, he got an evil grin on his face before he said: "The Peter Parker you're talking about is gone and he won't come back". He turned around and was about to leave then he felt two hands grab his shoulders, he turned his head around and saw both Gwen and MJ behind him, "Peter you must listen to us. If you don't get rid of that thing soon it might make you do something you will never be able to live with, please you have to…" Gwen was cut of then a piece of the symbiote separated itself from the shirt and pushed both her and MJ to the floor, they sat there in shock while Peter turned around and looked at them with a face full of anger.
"Now you two will listen to me, you will not bring this subject up again and if you tell anyone about this you will regret it". Peter opened the door and exited the house, Gwen sat on the floor and began to cry, MJ put her arm around Gwen and tried to cheer her up while she was holding back her own tears, the was not much left of the Peter they knew and they also realized that whatever was left of him was getting weaker and that he might soon be gone for good if he didn't regain control soon.
A FEW MOMENTS LATER WITH SPIDER-VENOM,
Spider-Venom was swinging around the city looking for trouble, he couldn't believe it, the more the girls talked earlier the more he felt the real Peter struggle to break free.
If this continues so is it possible for him to escape, if he does he might fight me in order to regain his body, but I won't give it back to him without a fight, and not before I take down Carnage, Spider-Venom thought as he kept swinging.
So Spider-Venom took down the Sinister Six and Gwen and Mary Jane knows Peter's secret and that he has the symbiote, will they keep quiet or will they tell someone? Can Peter defeat the symbiote and regain control over his life or will the symbiote triumph? Continue reading to find out and please review and tell me what you think.
