Something was wrong, and Peter wasn't the only one whose spider sense picked up on this, looking around he saw Gwen, Miles, Anya and Flash look nervously before shrugging it off, only they soon felt that uneasiness again when then walked past a certain section of the school. Peter looked around and dashed outside before pulling on his costume so he could investigate.
"Okay so where is whatever is triggering our spider sense" he said looking around it wasn't long before he actually found what it was, there in an alley nearby was a grizzly sight
"what happened?" Agent Venom asked
"I don't know" Spiderman said
"The fact that this alley is covered in blood and smells of iron isn't something to be casual about' Agent Venom about
"I'll call the police" Spiderman said
"And what should we do about that?" Agent Venom asked pointing to the only thing there that was clear to make out
"CK? What or who is CK?" Spiderman asked
"A serial killer, and one that we haven't been able to catch" Jefferson said
"And why not?" Sky Knight asked
"Because any evidence we find is drown in blood" Yuri said as a very skinny man walked under the police tape, his most noticeable feature was his bright coppery red hair
"Not to mention, if you look at the C and the K, you'll noticed the ends were smooth off by something, probably a piece of cloth so that fingerprints are eliminated so we can't tell who it is, plus there is a lot of arterial spray meaning that he cut her neck savagely" he said
"Looks more like he ripped out her heart and used it as a paint brush" Agent Venom said looking around. He was still unnerved
"Oh where are my manners, my name is Clayton Kennedy" Clayton said
"Ok then" Spiderman said looking at his allies 'Something about this feels familiar, maybe the Bugle archives will have what I need, so once again who in the world is CK?' Spiderman mentally asked
"What's up?" Eddie asked as he walked past Peter's desk
"I'm just looking up something from the archives"
"And that is?" Eddie asked taking a sip of coffee
"Something called CK" Peter said
"The CK Murderer?" Eddie asked "Peter are you sure that is a wise idea?"
"Yeah why?" Peter asked
"Because the CK murderer is one of the most dangerous ones in the history of America, 20 deaths in five different states leading from Kansas to here; please what ever you do; DON'T Get involved' Eddie panicked
"What if I already am?" Peter asked
"Then back out of it just as you can, from what I saw of him in San Francisco, calling him a monster is how I would describe him, but that's the only way I can" Eddie said
"What kind of weapons did he use?" Peter asked
"I see you're not taking my advice, so I'll tell you that in San Fran he used a serrated hatchet and horse tranqs to commit the murders
"And the blood?" Peter asked
"Still figuring that one out" Eddie said as he doubled over
"You okay?" Peter asked concerned
"Yeah, the symbiote's been acting weird" Eddie said "Plus I've been having weird craving man"
"Such as?" Peter asked
"Raw meat" Eddie said
"Raw meat, why would Eddie be craving raw meat, or maybe it's the symbiote that is experiencing the cravings" Spiderman said
"What cravings?" Agent Venom asked as he entered the lab
"Hey Flash you haven't been wanting to eat raw meat have you?" Spiderman asked
"No, should I?" Agent Venom asked
"Well Eddie has been, so I was wondering since you're wearing a clone of the symbiote" Spiderman said
"That's odd" Agent venom said
"You've got that right, mind if I have a look at your suit?" Spiderman asked
"Sure, but I doubt you'll find anything" Agent venom said
"I'm sure I will" Spiderman said pulling out a string of black goo
"Is that?" Agent venom asked
"Yep, a piece of Venom that was still on me when we unbounded" Spiderman said "I still have to thank Green Goblin for that actually"
"Too bad he's disappeared" Agent Venom said "I'm sure Sky Knight would have loved to take a crack at him"
"And yet Sky Knight's tech is close to that of the Goblin" Spiderman said
"You thinking Oscorp made the Goblin tech?" Agent Venom asked
"I'm not sure" Spiderman said
"Just like I'm not sure about what I'm looking at" Peter said
"May I?" a familiar voice asked
"Dr Octavius, you're back" Peter said
"Naturally" Octavius said smiling "So what do we have?"
"Two strands of the symbiote Venom, only the one of the left is a duplicate
"A clone?" Octavius frowned
"Yeah, Jackal made it" Peter said
"Interesting, huh" Octavius said
"What?" Peter asked
"The symbiote on the right has signs of an additional life in it" Octavius said frowning
"Are you saying what are I think you are saying?" Peter asked
"Yes I am, the symbiote has a spawn out there in the world" Octavius said
"That isn't good I take it?" Peter asked nervously
"I have no idea, I have never studied this race; but the fact Jackal is involved fills me with the worse kind of dread" Octavius said
"Yeah me too" Peter said
"Thanks for the update" Spinneret said
"What is it?" Ghost-Spider asked
"We may have another symbiote to deal with" Spinneret said
"WHAT!" Ghost Spider shouted
"Yeah, Spiderman juts said it looked like the strand he has contained something akin to an egg" Spinneret said
"Oh shit, that must mean the main suit has given 'birth' for lack of a better term?" Ghost Spider asked
"Yeah, it does" Spinneret said "Or close to it"
"We have to find Eddie" Ghost Spider said
"An it gets worse" Spinneret said
"Which is?" Ghost Spider asked
"This has the Jackal written all over it" Spinneret said
"CK" Peter said
"You're still on that huh?" Eddie asked
"This coming from the guy who's suit gave birth?" Peter asked
"Okay, but seriously why the interest?" Eddie asked
"This sick bastard was near our school, and we sensed him" Peter said
"Well in that case" Eddie said
"BROCK, PARKER! The CK struck again and I want you two to cover it" Jonah said
"What?" the two said
"Okay, just remember this is a crime scene" Eddie said
"Got it" Peter said before he had to cover his mouth with his hand and hope not to lose his lunch
"And this is why I said calling him a monster was the only thing I could call him" Eddie said as they noticed the blood was still fresh "How long ago was this called in?"
"Five minutes ago" Yuri said
"And you know this how?" Eddie asked
"Because I was the one who came across it" Yuri said "And then there's the calling card; the C.K"
"Interesting" Eddie said taking notes
"Where's Clayton?" Yuri asked
"He's been held up" Jefferson said before Peter looked at the CK
"Hey Eddie, were there any suspects?" Peter asked
"They originally had a Cletus Kassady pegged for the murders but since they moved away from Kansas he was no longer a suspect"
"I don't think that's the case here" Peter gulped
"What do you mean...CK=Cletus Kassady" Eddie said putting the pieces together
"Shit" Yuri sighed out sweeping her hair back
"And the reason Clayton Kennedy isn't here" Eddie said
"CK" Yuri said "You mean to tell me, we've been giving the CK murderer access to his crime scene so he could clean up and cover his tracks" Yuri said
"Meaning, we're on the wrong end of this thing" Eddie said
"And we have to catch up fast" Peter said
"Interesting, so they on to me finally" Cletus said smirking as he walked away from the gathering crowd. "Too bad I was starting to enjoy New York" he said
"It doesn't have to be" a voice said
"And you are?" Cletus asked
"the man who can take you from mere criminal to dark legend" the voice said as a man who looked like he stepped out of a sci-fi horror film "But I have many plans, so you may call me Mr Web" he said
"Seriously?" Cletus asked
"Either that or the Tarantula" the man said
"that's cooler" Cletus admitted "So how are you going to turn me into a dark legend?' Cletus asked
"With this" Tarantula said holding up a vial with a dense liquid inside
"And what is that?" Cletus asked
"That is the power of the dark legend on our world at the moment" Tarantula said before throwing the vial to Cletus before walking off
"So what is in here?" Cletus asked
"Why ruin the surprise?" Tarantula smirked before he disappeared
"Hey I wonder" Arana said
"What's up?" Spinneret asked
"Could Jackal have experimented on the symbiote spawn?" Arana asked
"It's possible, but what would he have done to it" Spinneret said
"That's is something we should look into while we're looking for this CK killer" Arana said before the two female spiders froze "You don't think"
"I hope not, especially with Jackal still behind bars" Spinneret said as the two jumped away just as Tarantula appeared in the shadows
"So they know about Jackal, but not me. Oh well with Kassady now having that little experiment I gave him I can go about my plans without the spiders bothering me, but there is one who could stop me, but I hardly doubt it" he said re-entering back into the shadows before disappeared.
"GUYS!" Arana said as she and Spinneret entered the lab
"What's wrong?" Sky-Knight asked
"We think that this new symbiote spawn might because of Jackal" Arana said
"Which brings some troubling thoughts" Spinneret said
"Such as what he could have done to it" Silk said as she walked in
"Guys, what if this new symbiote was a sort of backup in case we didn't work out as his personal army?" Steel Spider asked
"And how many back up plans does he have?" Agent venom asked
"Yeah that we should worry about" Spiderman said "on top of Cletus Kassady"
"Who's Cletus Kassady?" Silk asked
"The CK murderer" Spiderman said
"WHAT!" they all shouted
"Yeah so not only do we have a rogue symbiote, but we also have a life ending psychopath out there" Steel Spider said
"We've got our work cut out for us" Spinneret said as she looked at the others.
Felicia was walking down the street on her way home when she heard a rustling from the grass behind her, looking back there she didn't see anything, but she did increase her speed and made sure her whip was in grabbing distance
"Alright creep show yourself" Felicia said winding her arm back
"WHOA!" MJ said backing up a bit
"Red, you scared me" Felicia said
"And you me" MJ said
"Let me guess you thought I was that CK creep, right?" Felicia asked
"Yeah, I did" MJ said before the two young women started to walk home together when they heard a really creepy noise from behind them. "That was you right?"
"Nope" Felicia said as they went back to back to keep each other from being attacked from behind
"Don't worry girlies I won't hurt you...much" a sinister voice said
"Oh great" Felicia said
G'day Guys Grizz here seriously can't believe I'm actually doing a Carnage storyline, which I hope I can do justice to but considering how 'murdery' he is I had to do the warning up top for the arc since it will be messed up but I hope you enjoy it since I'm going to do something which will changes things, and that includes what I'm going to do with the character of Tarantula whop will be something like Jackal but that's all I'm saying
so until next time I'll catch you...what do you mean Deadpool's leaked my Neo Marvel Universe plans...OH THAT SON OF A BITCH!
