I wanted to at the very least get this story out. I will continue this, once I finish other stories I'm currently working on. This is another part of Aragorn II Elessar's series "The Devil and the Hood" and a sequel to "Shadows of the past" and it's going to be a shorter story, loosely based on Venom (2018 film), Ultimate Spider-Man comic books and video game and The Amazing Spider-Man 2012 video game and film and Spider-Man (2018 video game), I'll admit I've never played that one but I've seen playthrough and I have an idea about the key points.

Somewhere in New York, a man in late 20s was buying himself some food before he saw a mugger aim a gun at the elderly Asian vendor, asking for cash. The woman, in fear, collected the cash, before suddenly, the mugger's hand was covered in some tentacle that was formed from some black goo as a tall muscular humanoid creature covered in black goo with white eyes and a giant monstrous jaw neared the mugger, who paled.

"You come in here again, in fact…" The tall monster grabbed the mugger by his throat. "…you go anywhere in this city preying on innocent people, we will find you and eat both your arms and then both of your legs. And then we will eat your face right off your head. Do you understand?"

The mugger shook his head, trembling in fear. "Please, no."

"Yes." The monster said. "So, you will be this armless, legless, faceless thing, won't you? Rolling down the street like a turd in the wind. Do you feel me?"

"What the hell are you?" The mugger whispered.

Half of the monster's face seemed to reveal a human underneath the black goo. "We… are Venom." The gap closed as the monster smirked. "On second thought…" It opened its jaw wide open as the mugger screamed.

"Please. No! No!"

"What exactly happened here?" Oliver asked Quentin as he was done interrogating the vendor.

"The mugger was going to rob her of the cash, then one of the frequent customers, and I quote, 'ate the guy like a turkey in one bite'." Quentin said.

"A cannibal metahuman?" Oliver asked.

"No. She said it was an alien parasite. Giant, muscular, black monstrous Spider-Man." Quentin explained and Oliver's eyes widened. "You know something about it?"

"I thought he was dead." Oliver said, disbelieved.

Quentin sighed. "What happened?"

One month ago, Peter Parker's house

Peter Parker was in the basement of Aunt May's house before he found a box. "Aunt May?"

Aunt May looked down and her eyes widened. "Ah. I almost forgot about that box. It was your Dad's."

"What's in it?" Peter asked.

"It's something from when he was a scientist in OsCorp." Aunt May said.

Peter found an old tape and put it into the TV in the basement as he saw his father on the screen and Peter's eyes widened. He hadn't seen the face in years but it felt like yesterday as he looked at the screen.

"Hello, Peter. If you're seeing this, that means that I'm dead. And… I'm sorry I wasn't there for you to see you grow up into the good person I'm sure I would be proud of. But I'm sure that Ben and May are taking good care of you. With great power comes great responsibility. And… I failed in my responsibilities, Peter." Richard Parker looked away, ashamed. "I've done something terrible. I wanted to do some good. I wanted to help people but I trusted the wrong person. People are dying because I made a deal with the Devil. I just didn't realize it until it was too late. And… I'm sorry I'm handing the burden to you but you need to finish what I started."

Peter looked at his father's notebook and found some formulas and something that read 'VENOM'.

"Years ago, an OsCorp satellite crashed, containing some ooze, that, as we discovered during our studies, has regenerative abilities. We believed that it could be finally a cure for terminal diseases like cancer. I just wanted to help people dying all over the world. But because I signed the wrong papers for the wrong person, I can't. I should've listened to you, if you're seeing this, Ben. I'd never tell you in the eye, Ben but you were right. Never trust a guy with a tie.

Peter… you may be too young to understand… but sometimes… the road to Hell is paved with good intentions. I wanted to use the symbiote that we had discovered, to help people. But Norman Osborn had different ideas, trying to create a weapon. And he falsified evidence against me to take control of my work. We fused the symbiote with human DNA to find out whether it can help heal diseases.

But by the time I realized what Osborn wanted to do, it was too late. I had signed my research over to him. I managed to smuggle out a sample, hopefully, in order to make sure I can take him down somehow. Peter, if you're seeing this… if OsCorp is continuing researching on symbiotes… stop them. Whatever Osborn is up to, it is no good for any of us. I need your help to stop them."

OsCorp

Norman Osborn entered a secret lab, where his son Harry was in suspended animation in a stasis cell. "We were so close." Norman leaned his hand onto the glass. "But I'll keep trying. I will find a cure. I will. I love you, son." He was on verge of tears as on the glass on the other side appeared some black ooze, mimicking the handprint of Norman's hand on the glass.

Peter was entering the OsCorp as he met with a young blonde woman, who he had not seen since high school, hearing that she studied abroad before applying to OsCorp. "You're considering applying to OsCorp, Parker?"

"I might be, Gwen." Peter lied, looking around.

Gwen put in the access card. "Peter… I'm not sure if you want to apply here."

"Why?" Peter asked.

"Honestly, I'm not sure what's going on here." Gwen said. "Lately, they've been working on some top secret projects. Things I know almost nothing about. But it might have something to do with…" She looked around and lowered her voice. "Peter, I never told you this, understand?" Peter nodded. "There's a rumor that few years ago, an OsCorp satellite crashed with an unknown alien substance. And the experiments they did with it, didn't end well. Dead test subjects."

"Animals?" Peter asked.

"I don't know. But I've been seeing a lot of body bags carried out lately." Gwen said. "And don't ask me, since I myself don't know and if I start poking around, it's going to get me fired. Here are the labs." She showed Peter the laboratories, where were some scientists.

"Gwen."

"Mr. Osborn." Gwen smiled as Norman Osborn approached her.

"Pleasure to meet you and who might this young man be?" Norman turned to Peter. "You look familiar."

"Peter Parker, sir." Peter offered his hand and Norman raised his brows.

"Ah, Harry's friend, I remember now." Norman nodded, shaking his hand.

"I heard he was sick, is he alright?" Peter asked.

"He's in good health for now, I appreciate your concern. With you working here, we might find a cure. I might consider employing you, Peter. I knew your father, he used to work for us, he was a good man." Norman said.

Suddenly, an alarm beeped in the facility. "Oh, no." Gwen said.

"What is it?" Peter asked.

"I'm afraid there's been a breach in the labs. Peter, I'm afraid we must cancel your visit. You need to leave here, now." Norman said.

"I should accompany you out—" Gwen offered.

"No, you should help in the labs, I can make myself scarce." Peter said as he ran off. He ran down the corridors until he was sure there were no cameras or guards or any witnesses around as he jumped into the ducts.

Spider-Man jumped down from the ducts as he saw scientists attacked by people, who looked like from some kind of a zombie horror. Their eyes were black, black veins all over their skin and they were attacking people around savagely.

"Hey, uglies!" Spider-Man webbed two poles and launched himself into the fray like a slingshot, knocking down some of the infected people. "What the heck is this?" His spider-sense turned on as one of the people snarled and lunged at him. Spider-Man kicked him in the face, knocking him down. Spider-Man then threw a gas tank at more of the infected people as it exploded in dense gas, blinding them. Spider-Man used the opportunity to take them down as they were webbed to the walls and the floor.

"What the hell is going on here?" Spider-Man asked.

Unknowing to him, a man with short hair in a jacket was in a corner, taking pictures. He had been following a lead from one of the scientists who tipped him off about something going on in here. He wasn't sure what was going on but one thing was for certain. Eddie Brock's lead on something fishy going on in OsCorp just took an interesting turn.

"Hey!" One of the guards shouted as they entered, aiming guns at Spider-Man. "Don't move!"

Spider-Man sighed. Typical, blaming him for something going on here. Then he pointed into the air. "Look! It's vampires!"

"What?" The soldiers whirled around, puzzled and Spider-Man and Eddie used the opportunity to run. What neither one of them noticed, was that onto them was glued some small, black, slimy-like ooze.

I wanted to at least get this started and I intend on continuing this but I'll get on with that after I finish other stories I'm currently working on.

So, what do you guys think? Is it good? Is it bad? Should I continue?

Please review and let me know if you have been enjoying this and want for me to continue.

With regards
