As you people might be aware of, I have posted an episode guide to season four of Teen Titans... If you are an obsessed and crazed fan like me, I would recommend checking it out... I said I don't expect any reviews, but people have been leaving them anyway... Its always nice to see people review... I wonder how many people have checked it out... Oh well, back to the story... This chapter took a long time to write... I'm not saying its long, which it might be, but I mean it took forever for me to think of what was going to happen in it... I had so many different ideas and they kept changing... Writer's Block comes in many forms and I hate them all... When I started this story, I didn't even know where I wanted to go with it... Not good to hear from the author eh? But I have finally decided what will happen in this chapter and the rest of the story... I'm putting a lot of work into these chapters and its always nice to get reviews... I would like however to get at least ten on each chapter (wink wink, hint hint, nudge nudge, whisper whisper, say no more) Now, on to the reviewer stuff, thingies, whatever... I don't know what to call them, but here they are none the less...
J or The Blind: Thank you for the little idea you gave me... It was completely different from what I originally had, and it was a lot better from what I was going to have... So thanks a bunch... But the next time you review, say something more about the story and not so much about stuff that doesn't relate to anything in the story, just saying
Gundamknight: Yes, it is never a good idea to get on Raven's nerves... Never piss her off... As for other villains, Venom will be in this... There will be one other, but I cant say anymore on him... Why would you be curious if I would put you in? In my stories don't have, and if I do its very rare, original characters... And even if I did have one in this, I don't know anything about you... How you act, what your personality is, if your male or female, etc... Nothing... So sorry to disappoint you, but no version of you will appear in this fic... Sorry once again
Absolutely Pointless: Yes, I thought you would be happy about Venom... He wasn't originally going to be in this, but when I thought it over and considered everything, I thought it was actually a good idea to include him... And I must say, I believe it worked out for the best... Now, as for him totally kicking the Titan's ass, well, you will just have to read to find out
Big B: What's the B stand for, if anything, anyway? Never mind... Thanks, I thought that chapter was pretty funny as well... Don't you worry, I will have plenty fun playing Halo 2... And to all of you out there, Happy Turkey Day!
Now, in this chapter, Venom will be making his appearance... Just like with Carnage in my last fic, I have no idea how he transforms... I mean, I saw the cartoons, but the transformations weren't all that great in my opinion... So, I decided to make it up... I had another idea for the transformation, but I'm saving that for a later chapter... So, since I'm making this up, don't review just to tell me that's not how it happens... Other than that, I cant think of anything else to say but, on with the fic!
Disclaimer: I don't own the Titans or Spidey... Something different (told ya I'd say it)
"Man, that took forever. I thought we'd never get this room clean" Beast Boy whined, wiping sweat from his brow. He walked over to the closet and put away the broom he had been using.
"Yeah, I think it took longer than the time that freak Carnage wrecked the place. And I thought he was bad, sheesh" Cyborg exclaimed, plopping himself down on the couch, and letting the empty dust pan he was holding fall to the floor.
"Yeah, word to the wise. Never piss off Raven. She's worse than any bad guy I have ever faced" Spidey said. "Good thing she's on our side. Just think what it would be like if we had to fight her."
Everyone stopped what they were doing and stared blankly at Spidey. "Don't even joke" Robin said, while putting away the vacuum.
Since the boys had offered to clean up, Starfire and Black Cat were in the kitchen area talking. Raven was still secluded in her room. Black Cat was leaning over and whispering something in Starfire's ear. Her face suddenly went bright red, almost as bright as her hair. Her eyes were open wide and her hands were over her mouth. Black Cat leaned back.
"You don't mean...?"
"I sure do."
"But is that even correct in doing so?"
"Yep." Black Cat had a smug look on her face. Since they were both women, Black Cat felt that it was her civic duty to introduce Starfire to the wonders of the human world, and to corrupt as much of the innocent mind of the alien girl as possible. "And even more..." She was about to tell Starfire even more when she noticed Robin walk over.
"Hey, I never got a chance to say thanks." He held out his hand to Black Cat. "So, thanks for saving me back there."
Black Cat took his hand and shook it firmly. "No problem, but you owe me" she said in a sexy voice.
Robin blushed slightly, then he turned to Starfire, who had a puzzled look on her face. "Hey Star, what have you two ladies been talking about?"
Starfire looked up to Robin with big questioning eyes. "Robin, what exactly is a condom?" she asked in an innocent, oblivious voice.
Robin's face went bright pink. "Well... its uh... well you see... uh..."
Spidey, Beast Boy, and Cyborg turned to each other, then to Robin, and started laughing hysterically. Tears of laughter were starting to form at their eyes. Beast Boy fell and started rolling on the ground. Cyborg fell back on the couch and was kicking his feet in the air. Spidey was bent over, holding his sides, but all three were laughing like crazy.
If looks could kill, the three boys would be dead where they stood, for Robin gave them such a glare that it could have given Raven's death glare a run for its money. The three boys instantly shut up.
"Whoa, take it easy fearless leader, we were just joking" Spidey said, while Beast Boy and Cyborg were trying to stifle their laughter. Even Black Cat was trying her hardest not to burst out in a fit of laughter. "You know, this whole ordeal has really gotten to me. I'm gonna go up to the roof to relax a bit. Laters." Spidey waved to the Titans, then ran to the broken windows. He jumped out and shot a webline line upwards. Using the swing arc, Spidey launched himself up to the roof.
Spidey landed and crouched right under the telecommunications pole. He looked around and surveyed his surroundings. "Well, it looks like Raven is in her room again and not up here. Good. I could use some time to myself." He sat down and leaned back against the pole.
"Wow, this has been one crazy visit. Black Cat shows up and causes all sorts of trouble. Raven gave me another kiss, which felt great. The Lizard comes out of nowhere and goes on a rampage. Black Cat seems to make Raven jealous which seems to be over me." Spidey paused and looked around.
"I forgot I'm not in New York anymore. Gosh darn it, I miss ya Brutus. I didn't feel all that strange when I was talking to a gargoyle, but now I'm up here talking to myself. Am I going crazy?"
"Oh, we don't think so Parker." Spidey's eyes shot wide open is surprise, and he whipped around to see where the voice came from. He looked up to see a person clinging to the telecommunications pole. He wore a lose, black T-shirt with a dark red jacket over it. He also was wearing tattered blue jeans. His hair was sort of a reddish-brown. His facial features were strong and he had an evil glint in his eyes.
Spidey leapt back away from the person and landed twenty feet away in a crouching, fighting position. "Brock. What are you doing here?"
"Oh, cant an old friend come and say hi?" Eddie Brock let go of the pole and landed on the ground of the roof. "Besides, you left without saying goodbye." A sinister smile played across his face.
"Last time I checked, we were never friends."
"Oh, but we share so much in common. Like the symbiote for example." Spidey flinched at the word. "All it wanted was to make you happy. Make you faster, make you stronger, make you better. But you rejected and abandoned it. After that, all it wanted was to destroy you and find someone else who hated you as much as it did, as you well know." Brock pulled off his jacket and threw it to the side. He then reached into his pockets and removed two razor blades. Holding one in each hand between his index and middle finger, he crossed his arms. "Now, let us finish this battle once and for all!"
He pulled his arms apart, causing the razor blade to slice his arms. He let go of the blades, letting them fall to the ground. He looked down at his sliced arms, then back up to Spidey and smiled. What looked like black blood started pouring out of the wounds. It started to cover Eddie's entire body. It spread to his arms and down his chest and legs. As the blackness went over his chest, a white spider appeared on it. The blackness started up towards his head last. As it reached his neck, fangs started to sprout from the blackness and it seemed that this new mouth consumed Eddie's head.
"Well Parker, we believe that this battle has gone on for far too long. This ends here and now." Venom's claws clenched in anticipation. His long, serpentine tongue hung from his open mouth with saliva dripping from it.
"Well Venom, its been a while since I've seen your ugly mug, and to tell ya the truth I was kinda hoping it would stay that way. But I do agree with you on one thing though." Spidey started to crack his knuckles and then forced his fist into his open palm. "This is going to end here once and for all. Bring it" Spidey said while beckoning Venom to attack.
Venom didn't even reply. He just trashed forward, charging at Spidey with claws forward, ready to kill.
OoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoO
"And that Star is what a condom is and what its used for." Robin had finally been able to answer Starfire's question, with much difficulty, since Beast Boy and Cyborg had lost interest and left him alone to play video games. It was a lot easier, but still difficult, to explain something so embarrassing when there were no immature minds around.
Starfire's face was completely red. All she could do was mouth the word "oh." She didn't even make a sound.
Black Cat was sitting on a stool in the kitchen area. Her legs were crossed and she was doing her best to stifle a giggle. She wasn't doing to well. She was mentally patting herself on the back for a job well done.
Raven was still in her room.
"Dude, I am so going to win. This time nothing will get in my way of victory. Nothing will keep me from... NO! You just passed me. I'm not going to let you get away with this."
"Little man, you're dreaming. You cant beat me. The only chance you have at ever defeating me is if there is an emergency in the city, or if something huge were to happen in the tower, right here, right now."
As if on cue, part of the ceiling exploded and the room was shrouded in a cloud of dust. A resounding THUD was heard right after the ceiling opened up.
Everyone turned in surprise and shock in the direction of what just happened, except for Beast Boy. "Ha! I told you I would win Cy..." he turned to his robotic friend and saw his expression, "...borg?" Beast Boy turned to where everyone else was string and went silent himself.
The cloud of dust was clearing up and the Titans could see that Spidey was laying on the floor among the debris. He had rips and cuts in his costume, but he didn't appear to be injured.
Robin rushed to his side. "Spidey, what happened?!"
"Remember Carnage?" Spidey asked in a hurried voice.
Robin stared at Spidey, then the rest of the Titans, then back to Spidey. "How could we forget. Wait, don't tell me he's back!"
"No, he's not back so don't worry about that. Although someone worse is... Move!" Spidey pushed Robin aside with a little more force than he wanted to, but it got him away from the danger that was coming. Spidey leapt away from his position just as Venom crashed into the room, creating a crater where Spidey had previously been only a few seconds before.
"Quit running Parker! Get back here!" Venom roared.
"I'm not running. I'm just getting backup, you know, just in case they want a piece of the action."
"Is this an old friend of yours?" Cyborg asked while changing his arm into its seismic cannon mode.
"Yeah, you know, it kinda looks like you too" Beast Boy added.
"There's a reason for that... Whoa!" Spidey dodged a giant webline shot from Venom's wrist. "But I wont get into that right now. So, long intros short, Titans, Venom. Venom, Titans. I believe you are familiar with Venom already, right Cat?"
"I'm familiar with this freak alright" Black Cat said in disgust.
"Yeah I thought so. Pretty much guys, this guy is a lot like Carnage. Actually, I guess you could say that Venom is Carnage's father."
"Don't ever compare us to such a pathetic creature" Venom roared out in rage, as he slashed at Spidey.
Spidey just jumped back and onto one of the couches. "Why? Its so funny. I can totally see you two on Jerry Springer. Dysfunctional families to the extreme."
"You will regret saying that. We can not wait to rip off all you limbs and drink your blood."
"Yuck! I can definitely wait for that" Spidey said a he dodged another webline by doing a back flip.
"So if this guy is just like Carnage..." Robin started.
"Then he must have the same weakness" Cyborg finished. He raised his seismic cannon and prepared to fire. "Hold still ya giant booger."
Venom stopped his pursuit of Spidey and turned to face Cyborg. "I was only here to take my revenge on Parker, but a bonus would suit me just fine." Venom turned to Beast Boy. "I could use a snack" he said will licking his lips with his giant tongue.
Beast Boy cringed and recoiled in disgust. "Yuck, that's just nasty! Besides, I'm a vegetarian. I probably wouldn't taste too good to a guy like you."
"Eeek! Not another giant tongue" Starfire squealed as she sighted Venom's tongue. "Does all of the man spider's enemies have giant tongues?"
"Titans, Go!" Robin yelled.
Venom only sneered as Cyborg fired his seismic cannon, which was accompanied with a loud, "Booyah!" Venom jumped up out of the way of the blast and clung to the ceiling for a few seconds. Then he launched himself towards Cyborg. While still in mid air, Venom punched Cyborg right in the face, which caused Cyborg to stumble back a bit. Venom grabbed him by his cannon arm and aimed it towards the rest of the Titans, and fired. The blast hit each one of them and caused them to fly backwards, slamming them into various hard objects, knocking them out. Venom then tightened his grip on Cyborg's arm, crushing it in his grip.
Cyborg let out a cry of pain, but Venom only laughed. "This is fun." Then with a violent jerk, the loud and sickening rip and grind of metal could be heard as Venom ripped Cyborg's arm off. Cyborg let out another ear piercing cry of pain. "Oh shut up" Venom said and webbed up Cyborg's mouth, then kicked him in the face, sending him to the same fate that had befallen the rest of the Titans.
Venom then turned back to Spidey. "Looks like its just you and us again, just as it should be."
Spidey gulped on the inside. 'Oh Crap.' He then went to a fighting stance. "Bring it on."
OoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoO
"Azerath Metrion Zinthos. Azerath Metrion Zinthos." Raven had not yet left her room since the little incident with Black Cat. She had lost control of her powers and her emotions had gotten the best of her. She desperately needed to meditate, and she had been doing so for the past few hours.
Raven was in the lotus position floating a few feet above her bed. "Azerath Metrion Zinthos. Azerath Metrion Zin..." BANG! CRASH! BOOM! Raven opened one eye and stared at the door. "Boys will be boys, but they should really learn to stop fighting with one another. Its probably Cyborg and Beast Boy fighting about the usual, video games or meat vs. tofu. I wonder why Robin hasn't quelled the situation, but maybe he's involved in it as well."
Raven gently landed back on her bed, then she got off and stood next to it. "You boys better stop! Don't make me come up there!" Raven yelled at the walls, as if the boys were supposed to hear her. Raven sat back on her bed and leaned back, trying to relax when here communicator went off. Raven sighed and opened it up to answer. "What is it now?"
"Raven! We got massive trouble up here. The Titans and Cat are out of commission and I'm getting thrashed" Spidey's frantic voice came through. "Raven I need he..." He was cut off and the signal went dead.
"Spidey? Spider-Man?! Are you ok? Answer me! Spider-Man!" Raven threw her communicator to the ground and cursed herself for not recognizing that the sounds she had heard were the sounds of battle, not her friends in a meaningless tiff. 'Why did I not act sooner?' She chanted her mantra and was engulfed in her black energy, phasing through the ceiling.
When Raven phased through the floor of the main room, she was shocked by what she saw. The entire room looked as if multiple twisters had passed through. The unconscious form of the Titans were strewn about the wreckage. In a far corner of the room, Venom had Spidey's head clutched in one of his hands and was holding him up to the wall.
"Spider-Man!" Raven yelled and Venom turned at this looking very annoyed with her intrusion. "Let go of him you freak! Azerath Metrion Zinthos!" Black energy leapt from her fingertips and lapped out at Venom.
Venom dropped Spidey and did his best to dodge the onslaught of Raven's attack. He dodged a few strikes, but the other his him head on in the chest, arms, and face. Where it had hit, the symbiote suit melted away from Venom's body, revealing his human skin.
"What the hell?!" Venom looked down at where the energy had hit him, then back up to Raven. "You are more dangerous and powerful than the others aren't you?" Venom said, clutching his chest with one of his hands. Part of his face was exposed due to Raven's attack, and he looked pissed.
Venom backed up to one of the broken window. He looked down behind him, then back to Raven, and smiled. "We are a little surprised that you were able to damage us. We will have to remember that the next time we meet. But no matter, for we are victorious this day. But we are not leaving without our prize." Venom shot out a giant webline from his wrist and connected with Spidey. Venom yanked on the tether and dragged Spidey towards him.
Raven leapt towards Spidey, but Venom pulled him to his arms before she reached him. Venom then smiled at Raven with a sadistic grin. He then turned and jumped out the window.
"Nooo!" Raven rushed to the window and looked down, but there was no sign to where they could have gotten to. There wasn't even a splash or ripple in the water where they could have landed.
Raven fell to her knees, buried her face in her hands, and wept. "I wasn't able to save him.. I failed him, and everyone else." She removed her hands to wipe away her tears. "I need to help the other first, but if anything happens to him, Heaven help me, I will make his tormenter suffer tenfold." Anger was in her voice and she was surrounded in the darkness of her power as it rippled throughout her entire body. "I will save you, no matter what sacrifices I must make. I will not let the one I care for the most die because I wasn't able to save him. I will save you Peter, no matter what."
You know, after I finished writing the chapter with Carnage in my last story, I realized that Venom, not Carnage, had the giant tongue... Oh well, they are both freaks and are related to each other, somewhat, so who cares right? Well, I'm all tired out from this chapter... After what took forever to think and write it, my head hurt like crazy... So, I'm going to stop there for now... As always, read and review, for I like reviews... Everyone likes reviews, and if they don't, then they crazy... So, once again read and review... Laterz...
