Chapter 2: Adapt or Die

Izuku was laid on his bed and looking at the roof while talking with the Other. "With these powers we can become a well-rounded hero. We can shoot that web thing, climb walls, super strength and the list goes on and on! I bet that with time, we can even beat big-name heroes like Endeavor or even All Might! The chances and possibilities are endless with this po-"

'I hate to interrupt, but she is coming to check on us again.' The Other said as Inko opened the door to look inside Izuku's room.

"Izuku? With who are you talking too?" Inko asked her son that smiled at her.

"With a friend mom. Don't worry." Izuku told her and she nodded.

"Okay. If anything is wrong, would you tell me? Right?"

Izuku nodded. "Of course, mom." Inko nodded again before closing the door. Once gone, Izuku laid himself on his bed as he released a breath.

'She is kind of annoying.' The Other said and Izuku sat back up.

"Don't say that. She just... worries too much."

'When we arrived 5 minutes late that one time, she thought that we were kidnapped and tortured.' Izuku sighed as he rubbed his templates. 2 months being with this other being was getting tiresome. It complains a lot, wants him to comit illegal acts and in more than one time, it has taken control over his body while he was sleeping.

He knows that because he woke up in a dumpster more than once.

'Don't you start about that. I also need to move from time to time. I take the worst part of our relationship, you know?' The Other complained. That was another thing. The Other could read his mind. So, whatever he thinks, the other knows it.

'It makes sense if you think about it. I am inside you and I circulate, per say, across your body. But usually I am found at your brain.'

"It is kind of unfair don't you think? I mean, can you at least ask me for permission?" Izuku asked the other.

'I just do what I think that it is the best for us. Like Kachan. He doesn't bother us anymore since we defeated him.' That was true. Kachan hasn't bother him since that day. Matter of fact, none of his classmates had bother him. Maybe they are waiting for Kachan to make a move.

'But he won't. I noticed how he looks at us now. With respect. He knows who we are now. Not useless Deku. But someone stronger than him.'

Izuku laid again on his bed "Who knows. Kachan is really unpredictable."

'But we are stronger. We can kill him whenever we feel like killing him.'

Izuku sat up "That's not the point. And can you please stop saying stuff like that. I already told you; We won't kill no one. Ever."

'You say that now, but let us see what happens when shit hits the fan.' Izuku shook his head at the word of The Other. He stood up, put on his red shoes and went downstairs towards the door.

"Mom! I'm going for a walk!"

"Okay! Take care sweetie!" Inko said from the kitchen.

*Streets*

Izuku was walking down the street as he listened The Other talk about their power and how they should use it.

"Excuse me sir, do you have a moment?" A girl with blue hair tied in a ponytail asked Izuku. He stopped and turned at the girl that was holding something.

"Ehm, Yeah." Izuku said. Even with the confidence push that he got by the Other, he still feels awkward talking to girls.

The girl giggled "We are giving these free bracelets. Here, take one." The girl offered him a black bracelet with a little black, shiny rock at the middle. Izuku took it and put it around his hand.

He grinned at the girl "Thanks!" and left the girl behind that waved at him. Once they were away, The Other decided to talk.

'That was... weird.'

"Why?" Izuku asked. It wasn't that weird. There are many companies that give away free merchandise in a way of propaganda.

'It doesn't have any logo or catchphrase.' The Other noted and Izuku looked at the bracelet and indeed, it was clear of any images.

"Maybe she was just being generous?" Izuku asked it and he could hear it scoff.

'Believe what you want. But it was weird.'

The girl for her part, walked towards an alleyway and took out her phone. She dialed a number and put the device against her ear. Once the line was picked up she simply said "The dog had been marked." Then she hanged up.

*Midoriya's Residence*

"Here you have a nice plate of Katsudon." Inko said as she placed Izuku's favorite dish in front of him.

Izuku grinned as he grabbed his fork and knife and was about to eat when he felt something tingling in his head. The only time he felt that before was when Kachan was going to attack him last time.

Before any of the Midoriyas could notice, the door was blown open and four men, dressed in a black combat suit like the ones of special operation wears, came into the department all weilding machine guns.

When they spotted Izuku and Inko, they pointed to them.

Inko let out a scream and Izuku took a step back as he started to sweat. "W-Who are these guys?" He whispered.

'Mercenaries. Probably hired by Life Foundation.'

"W-What!?"

'Calm down and let me handle this.' The Other ordered and Izuku gulped as he nodded.

The four men surrounded the Midoriyas. Two in front of them, one at their right, facing the wall and other at the left, facing the window.

"Izuku Midoriya; Come with us peacefully or we will be forced to retrain you by force." One in the middle said and Inko widened her eyes.

"W-What do you want to do with Izuku!?" She demanded.

"Look lady, our business is with the kid. So, keep your trap shut and let us do our work otherw-Agk!" The one at the window started but was cut off when Izuku arm was covered by the Other and taken over and pointed at him as the black web was shoot to him towards his face. It grabbed hold of him and pushed him out of the window and towards the metal stair that was by the side of the building.

Izuku panicked as he saw that his other arm threw a web towards the one at the right, dragging towards him while his other arm closed into a fist and took some space to swing at him "I'm so sorry!" Izuku apologized as he then punched the guy towards the wall. It was so powerful that it broke the wall, sending the guy into the kitchen.

The two in front of them, started to shoot Izuku, but a black web was shot from Izuku's back, dragging him behind the table and onto the floor. Then, he kicked the table towards the two mercenaries. One mercenary was quick enough and dodged the incoming projectile, but the other reacted to slowly, receiving the table and being hit by it and then hit the wall behind him.

The last one was now in front of the space where the door used to be. He grabbed the walkie-talkie that was on chest. "We need backup. I repeat, we need back- Agk" His face was grabbed by the web of Izuku and was pushed out of the department and towards a wall. Once he hit, the wall cracked a little as the guy was knocked out.

Izuku looked around and saw how he, no, they defeated the attackers. He felt powerful. He even doesn't feel tired after doing this. He knows that wasn't even close to his full power, so if this is only a taste, how much would be all of it?

"I-Izuku?" He snapped out of his thoughts as he turned around and saw his mother looking at him, with tears on her eyes as she walked slowly towards him. "H-How can you d-do this?" She asked shakily.

"It is a long story that we will explain later. Now, call the police." Izuku said and Inko got confused when he referred at him as 'we', but she headed to the phone anyway. She picked the device and noticed that there wasn't tone.

"I-It isn't working!" She screamed and Izuku cursed under his breath.

"They cut the line." He muttered "Okay, mom; I need you to trust me, okay?" Izuku asked her and Inko nodded "Good, jump on my back. We are going to the rooftop."

"B-But why do I need to be on your back?" Inko asked confused.

"Mom. Trust me." Izuku said and Inko gulped as she nodded her head.

Inko hopped onto Izuku's back. He stumbled a little and walked out to the window. Inko was more than surprised when she saw that her son was now climbing the wall with only his hands and feet and carrying her at the same time! But she was also worried about what is that black thing covering his arms and legs.

"H-Honey; what is going on? Who are these men and what is that thing?" She asked and the other groaned.

'She asks a lot of questions. Why don't we just drop her?'

Izuku ignored it "I'll answer them soon mom." They arrived at the rooftop and once there, the door of there was open and from there, three more men appeared and pointed their guns at them.

Izuku started to think on what to do to escape when the Other spoke 'Jump. I'll take care of it.'

Izuku nodded as he ran towards the side of the building and jumped "Izuku, what are you doing? No, wait. Izuku dooooooooooon't!" Inko screamed as the started to fall. Izuku also screamed and before they landed, from Izuku's side a black web was shot, grabbing hold of the two buildings that made the alleyway.

"Thanks." Izuku said to the other.

'Whenever you want.'

Once in the floor, Inko got off Izuku and looked at him. "Izuku. What is going on?" She asked and before Izuku could answer another voice came in.

"Allow me to explain ," They looked towards the stree and saw that blocking their way where six soldiers and one tall man in the middle. "I am Coronel Ibushi and I am in charge of this operation. You see; your son," He pointed at Izuku "Has a symbiote that belongs to the man that hired me and my boys. And he is happy to pay more, if we take your son alive to him." Ibushi explained and Izuku took a step back as the men pointed their guns at them. Red dots could be seen at Inko's and Izuku's chest.

"So, Izuku; come with us like a nice little boy or..."

"Mommy gets shot."

Izuku eyes widened and was going to step up. He wasn't going to let them harm his mom! He will stop them! One way or another.

"I don't care."

Izuku looked at his mom that was smiling at him. "Izuku, you have a great power now. Be good with it. Be responsible with it. And remember; I love yo-"

*BANG*

Izuku watched as his mom, fell to the ground with a hole at the side of her head. Izuku knelt down beside her and hold her corpse.

"Mom? C'mon, wake up. Mom? Mom! MOM!"

Ibushi sighed "How sad. Now take him." One soldier started to go ahead and pointed the machine gun at Izuku's head.

'They killed her...'

"You killed her..." Izuku muttered.

'Have your revenge against them. Kill them. You can do it. Do it for mom...'

Izuku arm was covered by the symbiote as he grabbed the cannon of the weapon and then he crushed it.

"What the-Off!" The soldier was then punched to the wall by Izuku as he slowly stood up. The 5 other soldiers pointed their guns at him as he turned around.

Izuku body was starting to be covered by the symbiote. All his body but his head was covered in it having some sort of white veins slightly being marked. His fingers became some sort of claws that were the same color as the rest of the suit. Ibushi looked at him unimpressed as he sweated a little.

"Fire." He ordered as the soldiers opened fire against Izuku, hitting him at the chest. Izuku didn't move from his spot until the soldiers ran out of ammo. Now Ibushi looked kind of scared.

Izuku started to walk towards the group as they started to reload their weapons. "Why?" Izuku asked "Why did you have to kill her? She was innocent! She didn't have to die!"

"Stay back." Ibushi ordered taking out a gun.

"You are going to pay Ibushi." At that moment, the symbiote started to move again. It started to cover Izuku head completely. Once it was just a black mask, it suddenly had two, big eyes that are a white color entirely and a mouth opened more that it could humanly be revealing a lot of sharp teeth.

"We are going to make you pay!"

*Minutes Later*

Hideo Tananka had just woken up since the target punched him and knocked him out. He was still in the dead end where they cornered him and his mother. But he was hearing the sounds of something being smashed and some sort of grunting.

He slowly stood up and saw that some black creature was smashing Commander Ibushi head against the floor over and over again. The creature had some big white eyes that had sharp ends and a big grin with sharp teeth. It had claws and was the size and shape of a slim kid.

He took out his combat knife and tried to sneak to the creature and stab it to save or avenge his comrades.

When he was going to make his move, the creature turned around a shot some sort of black web that got stuck to his hand with the knife and to the wall. He tried to break free by holding his hand with his other and pushing it. But it had no effect.

"Did you really thought that sneaking behind us would work?" The creature asked as a long tongue came out of his mouth and spitted a little bit. Hideo didn't answer, he took out his pocket gun and started to shoot the creature until he ran out of the 12 bullets the weapon had. The creature laughed at his attempt of saving his life. It shoot another web to his free hand sticking it too to the wall.

'Y'know; you guys interrupted our dinner. And we are still hungry, even after all this fun." It got close to him and grabbed his head. It tongue came out of the creature mouth and started to lick Hideo's face.

"Hope that you don't mind if we take a bite!"

Before he could register what happened, the creature mouth opened wider than he could imagine and lunged to his head. Then he felt a pain at his head and then he felt nothing at all.

"Hmm. Sweet, sweet nectar..." The creature said as it tasted the brains and blood of the now dead Hideo. Then, it could hear sirens and he knew what is time to do. "Well, time for us to go." It shot a black web to the railing of a rooftop and he left the dead end with all the corpses in place.

It started to swing across the city. It was night time so no one noticed it. It suddenly stopped on a rooftop and grabbed it mouth and started to open it.

"Let... me... GO!" Izuku screamed as his head popped out of the suit and slowly, the symbiote retreated leaving him in his pajamas.

"W-Why did you do that!?" Izuku screamed.

'Because you wanted to. You wanted revenge and I gave you the tools to do it. And we were hungry so I took a snack.' The Other explained casually making Izuku panic more.

"NO! I didn't want to kill them! You forced me! Why!?"

'Yes, you wanted! Stop trying to play dumb! You have this power and you can do whatever you want with it! WE can do whatever we want! And we are going to become the hero this world needs so badly!'

"W-What are you talking about? We can't become a hero anymore! We are murderers!"

'Izuku; when I arrived to this planet, heroes weren't heroes. They were vigilantes. You can be one. A hero that writes his own rules.'

"B-But isn't that... illegal?"

'Murder is it too. But look what happened minutes before.'

It was right. If he wanted to help people, being a vigilante was his only choice. But, isn't that better? I mean, he can take out the villains of the city... permanently...

'See? We are a team now. Together we can combine fun with justice. So, what do you say. Partner?'

Izuku nodded. "Let's do this. But, how did they found us in the first place?" Izuku asked.

'The bracelet.'

"What?"

'I knew it was fishy. Look,' Izuku lost control of his arms again and saw how he took the bracelet off his wrist and he crushed it. There, he could see some sort of circuits.

"That girl..."

'Was working with them. It seems that we will have more problems now.'

"Hey, why don't we give her a visit. After all..."

"This is her fault."

*Streets*

Yoshino Shirai was leaving the club she usually goes after she is done with a mission. Today, was to give a green-haired kid a tracking device. She honestly feels kind of bad for the kid. He seemed so young and to make such a plan to kidnap him was so-

"Hey, wait!"

She turned around to see the same green-haired kid from before, dressed in black jeans, a white shirt and a black jacket smiling at her.

"Hey, look this is the thing; I broke my other bracelet so I was wondering if you had another one for me?" He asked innocently and she found herself frozen. Why was this kid here!?

His expression turned from innocent to menacing. "What? Don't feel like killing us anymore?"

Suddenly, the kid body was starting to be covered by a black goo. His hand turned into claws and his face was morphed by a gigantic grin with sharp teeth and it had two big white eyes taking most of it face.

"Because we feel like killing you!"

"W-What are you!?" Yoshino screamed and the creature laughed.

"We are finally Venom!" Venom screamed as it attacked her.

*Life Foundation HQ*

"Well... that was a failure."

"Sir, the symbiote and the host are way stronger than expected!"

"I can tell. That only makes me want to have them in a lab being tested on."

"Sir?"

"The future of mankind is on that symbiote. And Izuku Midoriya is the key to use it however we want to."

And done! This was chapter 2 of 'In my Veins'. Hope that you enjoyed. As you could see here, the symbiote is slowly taking more control over Izuku. Izuku won't disappear but his decisions are going to be more biased by the symbiote. And as you could see also, Izuku is a vigilante by the moment. I am still not sure if he will join UA at a certain point. And that's all!
