*Author's Note – I've had a complaint about the Carnage Character. However I've believe that since Gwen Stacy's psyche has become completely unstable it only make sense that her character is Carnage. I could have used a different name but really I didn't want to as it makes it easier for you the reader to relate. (At least I think it makes it easier…)

"Figures she takes the easy job," Peter muttered to himself as he went off in search of Gwen/Carnage, "All I have to do is risk my life to keep an uncontrollably angry symbiot under control."
Just ahead of him he heard screaming, "Well at least she isn't hard to find," he muttered.
The scene Spiderman came upon was one that you only hoped to see in a horror movie. All around the street were dead bodies of people of every age, race and gender. In the middle of it all Carnage stood laughing.
"You're too late Spiderman," she cackled, "But you're just in time to join them!"
She fired several tendril darts at Spiderman but he released the web he was hanging from and dropped to the ground.
"Sorry to crash your party," he said, "But this party's over."
"No it's not," Carnage replied, "It's just getting started."
Her hands turned into a pair of oversized axe blades and she leapt at Spiderman both blades raised high over her head. She brought them smashing down at him but he leapt backwards and her blades smashed the pavement into bits.
"Not even close," Spiderman commented.
Carnage then raised both of her fists and fired two large tentacles at him sending him flying through the window of a supermarket.
Groaning Spiderman got up, "I gotta try and keep her in the store," he told himself, "and hope that Mary Jane, no Venom keeps up her end of the deal."
Meanwhile at Fort Bradley Venom was sneaking over the fence. Then Venom costume went away and Mary Jane was left standing there wearing a military uniform. Walking purposefully she found the bases armory and went inside. Inside a corporal was guarding the weapon stores.
"I need two Sonic Blasters," Mary Jane said.
"I'm sorry," the corporal said, "But I can't give you that with out…"
He never finished what he was saying. Mary Jane's fisted flew forward and knocked him out cold before he knew what had hit him. She grabbed his key ring and found the key to open the weapon stores. She found the two blasters and handed dropped the key ring on the unconscious corporal's lap.
"Guess I won't need this disguise anymore," she said and then Venom costume appeared once more.
Toting a pair of bulky weapons she jumped quietly from roof to roof until she was out of the base and heading back into the city.
Spiderman in the mean time was not having a good time. He had already circled the supermarket 3 times in his attempts to keep clear of Carnage until Venom came back.
If she comes back, he thought riley.
"Why don't you just come out and face your doom?" Carnage asked for the fifth time, "Why do you delay? It is inevitable. Delaying will do nothing."
Just then there was the sound of feet stepping on broken glass near the front.
"Ah you are trying to escape!" Carnage hissed.
Spiderman saw her run past the aisle he was hiding in towards the front of the store. He leapt up onto the shelf to see Venom standing at the front aiming one of the bulky sonic blasters with one hand. She saw Spiderman and threw the second sonic blaster at him. Carnage realized she was caught in the middle of the two. She tried to smash down the wall beside her but Venom fired her sonic blaster. Carnage fell to the ground writhing in pain as she tried to crawl away from the blast. Spiderman grabbed a large pickle jar and dumped out its contents on the floor. He then jumped down off the shelf in front of Carnage and fired his own sonic blaster. The symbiot ripped it self off of Gwen's body leaving her lying there unconscious. Spiderman quickly scooped the symbiot up in the jar and clamped the lid on. He threw his rifle down on the ground. Venom came over and looked at Gwen Stacy's unconscious body.
"What should we do about her?" Venom asked.
"Turn her in," Spiderman said, "The symbiot obviously drove her mad so we should at least make sure she mentally stable before she is allowed on the streets again."
"And what of our spawn?" Venom asked.
"Is there anyway to destroy it?" Spiderman inquired.
Venom nodded, "It is high susceptible to fire."
"Well I think I'll let Doc Conners study it first," Spiderman said, "Then I'll dispose of it properly."
Spiderman made to leave but Venom stood in his path.
"What now?" Spider demanded angrily.
"While you are still a fool for rejecting us we will not kill you," Venom said, "For now."
Underneath his mask Peter smiled. He knew there was probably more to it.
