Spider-Man: Watch out! It's your friendly neighborhood Spider-Man! Oh no! Tails got kidnapped! The animal capsule was set up as a trap to capture us, but Tails was the only one that got taken. I wish I saw it coming, but I guess it's too late for a do-over. Hang tight, Tails, we'll rescue you!

Issue 11: Mr. Venom and Gloom

The Deadly Six's Base

BGM-Shadow the Hedgehog OST-Perplexity

Looking at the screen showing the Extractor is Anti-Venom by himself. The amnesic symbiote watches silently as the Extractor continue draining Mobiant Earth of its life energy. Thousands of people drop dead one by one as their energy is taken from them and given to make him and the Deadly Six that much stronger, much to his amusement.

"Bwahahaha! Ahahahaha!" Anti-Venom cackled, slowly closing his eyes to think long and hard about his forgotten past as seeing the Extractor in action and the death of so many innocent people trigger some memories: One image shows him sleeping in his cocoon where he was first found by Eggman a week ago. The next image was the massive symbiote invasion that took place almost a year ago. Another shows a black symbiote similar to him betraying the symbiotes and sacrificing his own life to destroy them by dropping into an engine of a floating airship. And one last image showing seven differently-colored gems that are believed to contain immense ISO-8 energy.

"Hehe, now I see…the picture's becoming clear now," Anti-Venom starts to speak to himself, "The symbiotes were going to destroy this pathetic world before if one of our own didn't betray us. A black symbiote that was supposed to represent the best of us, the one they call Venom, sacrificed his own life for the humans. I am related to this Venom. I narrowly escaped our destruction and retreated to the Lost Hex to recuperate. I was created to be his successor in case things didn't go as plan." He slightly turns around to face no one. "Venom, my twin brother, you can rest easy in hell. I will finish the job you could never do! Nyahahaha!" He laughed insanely, seemingly regained his memories and referring to Venom as his "twin brother".

Silent Forest Zone

BGM-Sonic Lost World OST- Apathy Meets Disappointment

Zor is seen hiding in a tree where he gets startled by the arrival of Anti-Venom from behind him. "What are you doing here?" Zor asked the symbiote.

"I've been in the mood for some action. Whatcha watching?" Anti-Venom asked, sticking his long tongue out.

"Them." Zor points to Sonic, Spider-Man, and Ruby below running, or swinging, towards some old ruins. "Look at them, all 'I'm so fast' or 'I'm amazing' or 'This is the best day of my life' and stuff. Ugh, makes me sick."

"Want to go knock them down a peg? Or perhaps scary them?" Anti-Venom suggested, which does get a small smile from the depressed zeti.

"Let's." He replied, and the two dangerous baddies leaps away towards the ruins the heroes are rushing towards.

Silent Forest Ruins

BGM-Sonic Lost World OST-Island Relics

The three brave D-Avengers walk into the mouth of a stone totem that acts as the entrance into the ruins. Once inside, the mouth closes as the gang take a few steps inside these ancient island relics.

"These looks like ancient ruins. Why are we here again?" Ruby asked as they walk for a bit.

"Spider-Sense picked up something and I want to investigate before we head out to Sky Road. It's probably that Zeti that escaped from us earlier." Spidey replied, sensing Zor is somewhere around these ruins.

"He's not gettin' away from us this time. Let's get him to talk and find Tails." Sonic said, still concerned for his best friend that was captured because of his recklessness.

During their little exploration inside these ruins, the gang come across a handful of your usual Badniks and Grimm. Sonic blitzes the Ball Hogs and uses their bombs to kick them to destroy a Petra Gigas Grimm in front of him before delivering the final blow himself. Spidey swings in and kicks Grabber badniks off their webs before web-slamming himself on top of a Death Stalker, instantly killing it. And Ruby twirls her scythe in motion to cut down the different types of Badniks like Moto Bugs and Mushmeanies before using her Semblance to get up close to a Beringel and kill it with a single slash, before all three keep moving through the creepy ruins.

"So, Ruby, how's that report coming along?" Peter makes some conversation with his little sis to start making some repairs to their strained relationship.

"There's more important things to worry about now, you know, like saving the world and finding a missing friend." Ruby replied, focusing on the mission at hand.

"You can always multi-task." Peter joked.

"I'm not very good at that." She replied.

BGM-Spider-Man 3 Game OST-Black Tension

The next room they enter in is a constant to the brightly-lit chamber they were just in. This new room's dark and spooky, very hard to see. "I can't see a thing." Sonic commented.

"Too bad you don't have natural night vision like me." Peter quipped, using his night vision granted by his spider powers to see clearly in the dark.

"It only became natural after you bonded with your Other." Ruby quipped as she uses her Scroll to light up the place, while also referencing The Other, Peter's personified and awakened spider-powers he unlocked some time ago.

"Still counts." Peter quipped again. The young trio takes some careful walks through this dark, creepy, and oddly creepy room in hopes of finding the exit, or at the very least a switch to turn on the lights. "Why am I reminded of that one game I played during my birthday?" Ruby remarked, feeling a bit creeped out.

"You mean Slender?" Peter referenced the horror game about a faceless white man in a suit named Slender Man, who is very scary and loves to stalk people in dark forests.

"Yeah! Why did you guys make me play it on my birthday?" Ruby replied, slowly getting a bit more creeped out as she feels like someone is stalking them in the dark.

"Your birthday's on Halloween." Sonic quipped, saying there's no better time to play a horror game than on Halloween.

"That's no excuse! I rather spend all day trick-or-treating—AH! I saw something!" Ruby popped, frightened after believing she saw something, or someone in the dark. Peter and Sonic turn around to where Ruby flashed her light to see nothing but a Mobini bunny just minding its own business in the dark.

"A bunny. Oh yeah, totally scary." Sonic joked.

"Relax, Rubes. You're hanging with the guy with a Spider-Sense. I would know if anything was going to jumpscare us-." Just as Spider-Man turns around to face his front, he gets a monstrous close-up of Anti-Venom, who is immune to his Spider-Sense, and his long tongue right in front of his face.

BGM End

"GRAAAAAGH!" Anti-Venom roared to scare the trio, which he did beautifully.

"AAAAAAAAH!" The trio screamed in terror. They immediately run for their lives while Anti-Venom does a scary laugh to frighten them further.

BGM-Spider-Man: Web of Shadows OST-Boss

"Of course we run into the only guy who's immune to my Spider-Sense!" Peter remarked, trying his best to find the nearest exit outta here.

"At least it wasn't Tails Doll! That thing's scarier than any symbiote!" Sonic remarked, running for his life in the dark.

"Please don't make me think about that! I'm scared enough as it is!" Ruby told him.

"You can't hide from me!" Anti-Venom said in the shadows. As a symbiote immune to being detected by Spider-Man, and a symbiote with the ability to camouflage itself into the shadows, Anti-Venom could be anywhere. From the walls to the floors, to the corner of the ceiling which is where he was before he pounced the heroes with a roar. Sonic quickly kicks him away to the nearest bottomless pit, but he believes in the phrase, "If I go down, I'm taking one of you with me". So he shots a tendril to grab Ruby by the leg and proceeds to drag her with him to the abyss.

"HELP!" Ruby shouts as she's being drag along the floor.

"Hang on!" Peter leaps towards her unsheathing his wrist stingers to cut the tendrils off her feet, thus saving her.

"Thanks!" Ruby thanked her hero.

"C'mon! Exit's this way!" Spidey hurried her.

BGM End

"In here!" Sonic shouts, pointing to a lightly-lit room next door. The gang successfully escaped Anti-Venom into an arena made of flat stretch of blocks. "We should be safe in here." Sonic believed, but then gets the feeling there's more inside this room. "Huh? Isn't that's…" He turns around to find the damaged Owl Mech that was used in their earlier battle with Zor, now being held aloft by three other owls.

BGM-Sonic Lost World OST- The Deadly Six Theme (Orchestra ver.)

A familiar sigh grabs the heroes' attention to see its Zor standing across from them. "Another pointless conflict is about to begin…" The emo Zeti said.

"You!" Sonic scowled, showing his clenched fist at the Zeti.

"Did you forget about me already?" Suddenly, Anti-Venom pops down next to Zor after already escaped the bottomless pit after his little scare routine.

"With that face, I wish." Spidey quipped.

"Then let's do you a favor. Let's see how you like it after we turn off the dark!" Anti-Venom chuckled.

The constantly depressed Zor snaps his fingers to summon shadow bats that fuse together and form two "Shadow Zor" clones and somehow turn off the lights, darkening the area while the villains roam freely in the darkness.

"Great. The other room was just a prelude." Ruby joked, standing with her friends together in the darkness. She uses her flashlight to scan the area for her enemies, terrifyingly screaming after spotting Anti-Venom roaring towards her. Before he could attack, Spider-Man kicks him away to deal with him alone.

Meanwhile, Sonic is getting his butt whopped by Zor's shadow clones and is unable to do much to counter in this lightless darkness. "I can't see! Can someone turn on the lights?" He asked before getting kicked by a Shadow Zor.

"I see a switch!" Ruby points her light to a light switch hanging from the ceiling. "Cover me!" She ordered.

"In the dark?" Sonic quipped, somehow managing to duck under a Shadow Zor's swing kick.

Ruby uses her Semblance to avoid the darken chaos between her enemies and her friends as she goes for the switch. She almost got tackled by the real Zor, but luckily, Sonic kicked him away in mid-air. Ruby grabbed onto the switch and pulls it down, bringing back light to this dark chamber.

"Oh, if it isn't the light. Is it my time to head for the heavens already?" Zor depressingly remarked, before getting attacked by Sonic.

"I know your tricks, Anti-Venom! You got nothing that can surprise me!" Spidey taunted, using a webbed punch to knock back Anti-Venom quite a bit.

"Oh?" Anti-Venom grinned, as Spidey has no idea of the many tricks he has up his symbiotic sleeves. He spots the webhead about to unleash a powerful web-strike on him, so he decided now is the perfect time to show off his "Sym Semblance". His new absorption technique which he already used on a dozen innocent Wisps earlier. His dark Sym Aura radiates from his body as he uses his newest power. "Sym Wisp Power: ARMOR!" Using the power of a Blue Cube Wisp he stored inside his body, Anti-Venom's body undergoes a mutation that turns his entire white skin blue and makes him nearly indestructible, strong enough to withstand Spider-Man's Web-Strike without a scratch.

"When could he do that?" Spidey asked, a bit jokingly.

"You're not the only one who can cheat using little alien snacks!" Anti-Venom laughed as he beats down on Spider-Man with his armored form's fists.

"Spidey!" Ruby strikes Anti-Venom away from her little bro and utilizes ISO-Earth Dust to fire hard-hitting, piercing bullets that the smiling alien easily withstands.

"Gwahahaha!" Anti-Venom laughed. The crazed symbiote switches Sym Wisps Powers to Laser: mutating his forearms cyan, transforming them into arm cannons with an eye. "Peekaboo!" The symbiote fires a deadly laser barrage from each arm cannon, even from his mouth, that blows back the silver-eyed huntress.

"Let's turn that frown upside down, if you're capable of smiling!" Sonic grinned, dodging Zor's purple energy blasts.

"Smiling hurts my face. When I hurt your face, it'll make me smile. So in the end, I'll just be hurting myself... Cool." Zor replied with his usual moody attitude, sending our more shadow clones to attack the hedgehog.

"You need therapy." Sonic quipped, stretching both legs to simultaneously kick the Shadow Zors.

"And YOU need a doctor!" Anti-Venom chimed in with a mouth blast, knocking Sonic away.

"Might I suggest for you laser eye surgery?" Ruby quipped, having recovered from his earlier attack to cleave off his symbiote arm cannons.

Anti-Venom roared at her and tries to slam his regenerating fists on her but she dodged it in time with her Semblance, "Why you little worm!"

"This might be a hoot!" Spidey joked as he has also recovered and is strong enough to web-yank the broken Owl Mech the owls were holding and throw it at the distracted Anti-Venom.

"Huh?!" Anti-Venom turns around to see the giant robot owl coming towards him at great speed. He quickly reforms his laser arm cannon and charges them up to destroy it but was a little too late to intercept. He got smacked by the robot owl directly in the face and screams in pain, causing his charged laser shot to suddenly aim at the nearby Ruby instead in mid-rose petals form.

"Uh oh! AHH!" Ruby screamed, receiving a direct hit from Anti-Venom's laser attack that shattered her Aura in one blast and wounded her greatly.

BGM-Sonic Adventure 2 OST-Reflection

Sonic quickly subdues both Anti-Venom and Zor with lightning-fast Homing Attacks so an extremely worried Spider-Man hurries to Ruby's aid after he indirectly got her seriously injured. "RUBY! Are you okay?!" Peter shouted in great concern for his surrogate little sis.

Ruby weakly groans while lying on the ground covered in wounds, "I'm…I'm fine…"

"No, you're not. Your Aura's shattered. Just…just take it easy." Peter calmly tells her to stay still and not do any more while he tends to her.

"At least we got one of them, so it wasn't all bad. Better skedaddle." Zor leaped away from the scene, accepting his defeat but acknowledging the heroes didn't win unscathed.

"Nice going. Seems your luck hasn't changed a bit, Parker." Anti-Venom said with a taunting smile before he leaves as well, leaving with the fact that he also somehow knows Peter Parker is Spider-Man, despite the two have never met before, at least in Spidey's case.

"Wait a minute! How does Anti-Venom know your secret identity?!" Sonic asked Peter shocked that Anti-Venom is aware of Peter's secret.

"We can discuss it later!" Spidey replied as he's more worried about Ruby's current condition at the moment. He watches her cough for a bit and groans through her pain, barely possessing enough strength to keep both eyes partially open. "I'm so sorry you got hurt, Ruby. I didn't mean for you to get blasted." He apologized.

"Don't you have super-spider healing powers with your Aura or something?" Sonic asked the webhead if he could use his Aura to heal her.

"Anti-Venom drained some of my powers during the fight." Peter replied.

"Isn't that convenient?" The hedgehog joked.

"I've…" Ruby coughs again, "Been through worse. Remember my first fight with Goblin?" She weakly smiled at Peter.

"Yeah, and you survived back then. Rest up, little sis. I'll carry you outta here." Spidey replied, smiling behind his mask, holding onto her hand.

"I am getting a bit sleepy…Wake me up when it's time to save the world…" Ruby then falls asleep so her body could rest.

Peter carries her up, holding onto her tight so nothing else bad could happen to her because of him. He feels Sonic touches his arm to assure him she'll be alright. "She'll be all right…" Sonic assured him.

"I know. First Tails and now Ruby? How did this adventure turn into such a disaster for our love ones?" Peter asked, feeling somber to the heart that once again in his life, those he cares about the most get hurt because of his actions.

"All the more reason to hurry it up and stop those responsible: The Deadly Six, and Anti-Venom." Sonic said.

Spidey forms an angry scowl behind his mask, "Yeah. Now I'm starting to get annoyed by those guys. And Anti-Venom. He knows who I am, but I don't know who HE is. There's more to that guy than meets the eye. And I won't rest until I figure out who he is and put a stop to him for good." He declared, carrying the unconscious Ruby back outside with Sonic to reunite with Eggman and head for the next zone, more determined than ever to stop their enemies and save everyone they care about.
