Prologue
Peter Parker growled as he pulled on his web as hard as he could, in an attempt to separate Eddie Brock from the alien creature known as Venom.
After several difficult moments, Peter watched as he successfully pried Eddie from the Symbiote and away from the manipulative thing.
Smiling proudly, Peter felt proud of his accomplishment, Eddie was free and the symbiote cannot fight back without its host.
That's when his proud moments turned to shock and slight fear as the symbiote began to grow in size.
With multiple metal poles surrounding the symbiote and one in hand, Peter slammed the poles together as the alien lunged at him, causing the symbiote to screech as the sound was too much for it to handle.
Without a moment's hesitation Peter moved his hand above the hoverboard of the New Green Goblin also known as Harry Osborn which lay next to Peter.
The board then launched a pumpkin bomb into Peter's hand and he clicked the activation button causing the bomb to glow green, signaling its countdown
"Peter! What are you doing!?" Eddie screamed out in fear and horror.
Without responding, Peter threw the pumpkin bomb at the symbiote and watched as it landed within its tendrils, sticking to it like hot glue.
"Noooo!" Eddie yelled as he jumped towards the symbiote without a moments hesitation, attempting to bond with the symbiote once more.
"EDDIE!" Peter exclaimed in an attempt to save him from dying alongside the symbiote.
RAWR-KABOOM
The Symbiote roared right as the pumpkin bomb explodes causing Peter to be temporarily blinded.
After a few moments Peter looks back to see a single piece of the symbiote struggling to survive but soon became limp as it perished.
Eddie was gone. And so was the symbiote.
Peter clenched his hands tightly, ashamed in himself that he wasn't able to save the one person who was manipulated by the symbiote as he was.
In a forest in the middle of the night a young boy can be found next to a tree with his knees to his chest, as he sat in a ball. The sounds of sobbing echoed in the quiet forest as the full moon shines above him.
The young boy has raven black hair with dirty and damaged glasses.
As the boy began to sob he failed to notice the slight distortion in the air near his vicinity.
From the distortion a small black goo appeared, crawling through the ground, struggling to survive.
This small black goo was a piece of the symbiote that somehow traveled through reality after it exploded from the pumpkin bomb.
Seeing that it only had a few minutes at most to live, the symbiote attempted to find a host only to see a young boy, alone and crying.
Slowly the symbiote crawled towards the young boy.
As the symbiote climbed over a branch, it snapped, the sound echoing through the area, causing the young boy's head to snap up and look around in fear.
And that's when the young boy saw the symbiote moving towards him.
The boy's emerald green eyes widened in shock and fear, this young boy was Hadrian James Potter.
Hadrian saw the black goo move towards him and without a thought Hadrian attempted to run away from the goo only for him to stand up and fall back down onto his ass as his foot slipped on the leaves underneath him.
With his heart racing Hadrian pushes himself back, trying to get away from the black goo that seemed to want to get to him.
As the goo got closer Hadrian felt his back hit one of the trees and Hadrian watched as the goo got closer.
With tears forming in his eyes, Hadrian covered his face, his arm hitting his glasses as he believed the strange goo was going to kill him.
After a few moments Hadrian felt the goo start to climb onto him causing Hadrian to begin to hyperventilate and tears to fall down his face.
Few seconds passed and Hadrian noticed that the goo wasn't hurting him. And with a lot of hesitation, Hadrian slowly uncovered his face to see that the goo was on him, not doing anything, struggling to even move.
That's when Hadrian realised that the goo was dying.
Despite the fear Hadrian gulped as he attempted to pick it up. Hadrian watched as the goo slowly made its way up his arm before wrapping itself around his bicep.
Soon the goo began to spread throughout his body, leaving only the head untouched.
As the goo covered him, Hadrian felt different. He felt comforted.
That's when Hadrian realised that the goo was comforting him, it wanted him to feel wanted. As if it was rejected.
Despite fearing the goo, Hadrian felt safe with it on him. But then Hadrian's eyes widened in fear.
The Dursley's will find out about this goo and take it away from him. Sensing its host's worry, the symbiote slowly began to change.
Hadrian watched in shock as the goo turned into a darker version of the second hand clothes he was wearing previously.
The symbiote went through Hadrian's memories and it couldn't help but feel a connection with him. The symbiote had bonded with Peter and made him stronger. Faster. Better. It made Peter confident which in turn turned his life around. He earned more money from the Daily Bugle, and his life improved. But the symbiote didn't like the way Peter saw the world.
The symbiote saw how criminals got sent to prison only to break out again.
Robbers and thieves were never a bother to the symbiote. They just stole, and as long as no one was severely hurt it was fine. But when it comes to murderers, rapsists and the people like them, the symbiote hated them.
Prison was a punishment for those people and yet they escape, kill or rape again and get sent back to prison only for them to escape once more. Rinse and repeat.
The symbiote just couldn't understand Peter's thought process when it came to these types of people.
Why give those people another 30 chances, letting them kill the innocent before getting another chance to turn their life around only for them to spit it back in the people's faces?
People like the Green Goblin, who kill many innocents should not be sent to prison to be given another chance. He should be put down like the rabid dog that he was.
But as the symbiote looks into Hadrian's mind he can see a naive young boy who is being beaten for being different.
And the symbiote hated that. It felt a connection with Hadrian. Both rejected and hurt by those who they cared for. The symbiote with Peter. And Hadrian with his blood relatives who should care for him.
Looking back, the symbiote felt ashamed with what it had done to Peter after being seperated. Sure it was emotional and upset at being rejected. Being bonded to Eddie didn't make things better with the amount of anger that he felt for Peter.
But it didn't change the fact that it hurt Peter. Sure they were compatible but Peter just couldn't handle the aggression it naturally produced. Despite not liking the way Peter saw the world it could still understand why he did it. But when the symbiote looked at Hadrian it felt closer to him then Peter ever could have been.
Not only is its host compatible he also has a unique ability the symbiote had never seen before. Magic.
And as the symbiote began to bond with Hadrian it felt Hadrian's magic study it, checking if the symbiote intended to harm its user.
A few moments passed and the symbiote felt its host's magic wash over it, unsure of what the magic did to it, the symbiote remained bonded to its host.
That's when the symbiote sensed Hadrian's worry. Without hesitation it began to change its form into the clothes its host wore beforehand. The only sign of the clothes being different from its original was the darker colour.
The symbiote sensed as its host stared at it in awe, pride coursed throughout its being as its host was comforted by its action.
And with that Hadrian returned to the Dursleys with the symbiote along with him.
Chapter 1: Goodbye and Burn in Hell
Hadrian found himself on a plane with his 'family' on their way to America. Hope filled Hadrian's thoughts as the Dursleys took him on their vacation out of the country.
The glasses that Hadrian once needed were no more, now with perfect vision, Hadrian couldn't help but think that things were looking up.
Upon landing the Dursleys along with Hadrian went into a rented car and made their way to a hotel.
After checking into the hotel the group headed upstairs and entered their room.
As Hadrian looked around he couldn't help but hope that this might be a change of pace, his relatives might finally be nice to him and accept him.
The hope bloomed when Hadrian found out he was given a bed in the hotel, a nice comfortable bed with his own room. That hope continued to grow as he wasn't woken up early or forced to do chores upon the next morning.
Hadrian groaned as the sun beamed into his eyes while he slept in bed. It has been a week in America and it was the best week of his life.
No chores, sleeping in and no beatings. It was peaceful, perfect.
"Freak! Get out here! It's time to head home" Petunia yelled, Hadrian also noted the hint of excitement in Petunia's voice.
Hadrian assumed that Petunia was excited to just go home while the symbiote thought otherwise.
The Dursleys treated Hadrian like shit, they hated him and they still call him a freak. Something wasn't adding up and it didn't like it.
"Coming Aunt Petunia!" Hadrian called out before noticing the Tv that soon turned off. It was the 31st of July. His birthday. He was now 5 years old.
Happy birthday to me Hadrian thought with a small smile, the holiday still fresh in his mind.
Following his relatives, the Dursleys booked out of the hotel and entered the car.
As the sun finally set across the horizon and the darkness of night consumed the sky, Hadrian found himself sitting in the parked car with both Petunia and Dudley while Vernon was in a nearby store.
Something isn't right Venom (Symbiote) thought as it noticed the small smile on Petunia's face.
A few minutes pass and Vernon returned to the car
"Did you get it?" Petunia whispered to her husband
Oh yeah, something isn't right Venom (Symbiote) thought as it saw Vernon smirk at his wife
"Yes I did pet" Vernon whispered back
"It better not have been expensive" Petunia hissed with anger in her voice
"Don't worry about it, pet. After this won't have to deal with any of the freak's freakishness" Vernon whispered.
Hadrian heard this, his eyes widening slightly
They wouldn't. Right? Hadrian thought in disbelief.
As the family drove on the highway, their destination, the airport. Hadrian remained on high alert.
As the sun set, the stars began to shine across the sky, Dudley stared at it in awe while Hadrian remained tense as he watched both Petunia and Vernon closely.
That's when Hadrian's senses began to scream, his attention forcefully directed towards Vernon's jacket where a handle can be seen.
A handle belonging to that of a gun.
They are going to kill me, Hadrian realised.
As the realisation settled, anger began to grow
They beat me, starve me, taunt me and they call me a freak Hadrian thought as he clenched his fists tightly.
Looking closely at Vernon, Hadrian noted that Vernon was becoming more excited as they continued further, his hand now near the gun.
Hadrian knew that he wasn't going to have a life with the Dursleys that would be peaceful, if they were willing to kill him then the Dursleys would have to be out of his life.
Few minutes passed and Vernon smirked as his hand was holding the gun tightly, the gun still hidden by the jacket while Vernon remained unaware of Hadrian's thoughts.
The Highway was empty, the only car on the road was the Dursleys, the perfect chance to kill a young boy.
As Vernon slowly pulled out the gun more than likely ready to either pull over and kill him or just kill him right then and there and dump him onto the highway, but either way, Hadrian was ready. But unknown to Hadrian, so was the symbiote, willing, ready and able to protect its host.
As the shine of the barrel was revealed from Vernon's jacket a black tendril shot from Hadrian's arm, grabbing the gun and ripping it from Vernon's hand and into his own.
"Vernon!" Petunia screeched as she saw Hadrian had stolen the gun
"You freak!" Vernon roared as he attempted to hit Hadrian with his unoccupied arm.
Without hesitation Hadrian aimed the gun at Vernon's head and fired.
BANG
Vernon slumped onto the steering wheel with a hole in his head.
Shock and relief filled Hadrian's body. He wasn't going to be hurt anymore by Vernon, never again will Vernon beat him.
But soon that relief was replaced by panic as Hadrian realised the situation he was in, as the car was moving faster and faster. Hadrian then realised that Vernon's foot was on the pedal.
BOOM
The car crashed into something causing it to flip over.
Hadrian held on tightly to his belt as the car flew into the air, rolling several times and before Hadrian knew it. He found himself unconscious.
Hadrian groaned as he slowly began to open his eyes. His ears ringing and his head throbbing.
As Hadrian came to, He found himself upside down.
Looking around Hadrian saw the dead eyes of Dudley as his body was mutilated and crumpled, into a disgusting pile of flesh, bones and blood.
He didn't put on a seatbelt, Hadrian realised.
That's when Hadrian hear the sound of liquid splashing onto the ground
Petrol! Hadrian realised as he quickly released his seat belt. Hadrian dropped onto the ground with a groan as he felt shards of glass stab his arm.
With determination in his eyes, Hadrian pulled himself out of the car to see that it was upside down and completely destroyed.
All of this could have been avoided if you treated me right Hadrian thought upset
"H-Harry… Help" The voice of Petunia caught Hadrian's attention as he saw his aunt in the car, her face bloody and her clothes torn.
Hadrian scoffed at the fear in Petunia's eyes
"Oh so you remember my name now Aunt Petunia?" Hadrian asks sarcastically
"P-Please… Help" Petunia pleaded, causing Hadrian to notice the fire near the petrol.
Being the kid he was, Hadrian went to go help Petunia before pausing.
Unknown to Hadrian the symbiote was stopping his movements, not allowing Hadrian to save his aunt.
Soon anger began to overwhelm Hadrian once more as a dark smirk grew on his face, one that would not belong to a 5 year old but due to Symbiote's influence, the dark emotions that Hadrian felt for his family began to crawl to the surface as Hadrian smirked darkly at his aunt.
"No" Hadrian growled as he went on one knee as he looked at his aunt "I'm not going to help you" Hadrian chuckles darkly
"W-What?" Petunia asked scared and shocked
"You're going to die here Petunia. You're going to perish alongside your family" Hadrian stated as he reached towards Petunia, his hand passing her and grasping the wallet that lay on the ground.
"Please! You can't leave me like this!" Petunia cried as tears flowed up her face.
Hadrian watched Petunia beg and he felt powerful, he felt in control.
"Goodbye Petunia. Too bad you won't see my mother in the afterlife. They don't let freaks in as you said. Have fun in hell with your freakish family" Hadrian smirked as he stood up and began to walk away
"Please! Don't leave me! I don't want to die!" Petunia begged as she watched her nephew walk away, leaving her to die
"Plea-"
BOOM
The car exploded, the fire engulfing the entire car leaving the silhouette of Hadrian as he walked as his dark second hand clothes began to change.
Now wearing a black leather jacket with black jeans with a black undershirt, Hadrian walked away from the destruction. His life is now taking a completely different turn then what many would have expected.
Hadrian sat outside in a dark alleyway, a box of pizza in front of him as he ate another slice.
It tastes really good, Hadrian thought to himself as he ate pizza for the first time in his life.
Inside Vernon's wallet was a few hundred dollars, enough to last him a week, maybe even two if he's smart.
But where will I get more money? I don't have a job and I can't steal it because I don't know how to steal, Hadrian thought to himself.
Before Hadrian could plan he saw an image in his mind. A masked man in a red and blue suit with a black spider symbol on his chest swinging across the city, stopping crime. But what Hadrian noticed was that certain crime bosses had large amounts of money.
That's it. I can fight crime and take some of their money to feed myself, Hadrian thought triumphantly before reality settled in Hadrian's mind.
"Dammit. I can't do that. I don't even have powers" Hadrian cursed himself only to feel something smack him in the face.
Confused and surprised by the strike Hadrian looked over to see a black tendril in front of him. Shocked, Hadrian looked down to see that the tendril was originating from his clothes.
That's it! If the goo can help me fight crime then I can survive on the streets Hadrian thought with a bright smile.
"Now how do I fight crime without getting arrested? The last thing I want is to go to an orphanage. The Dursleys said that they wouldn't want a freak like me" Hadrian thought slightly saddened before he realised something.
He wasn't a freak. The Dursleys were. And when Hadrian was being beaten the adults that he asked for help, told him off.
Yes, he didn't need their help. He was going to help himself.
Now how do I get a costume? Hadrian wondered only to watch in shock as his clothes began to change.
Where Hadrian once stood now was replaced by a muscular man in a black suit with a giant white spider symbol on his chest (A.N: Spiderman's Classic Black Suit)
"Wow" Hadrian says in awe only to pause as he sounded like an adult.
As Hadrian looked at himself he realised that the goo was more than what he believed it to be.
Despite him appearing older, Hadrian knew that the suit was not making him older. He felt like he was in a power armour, piloting it while the suit did everything else.
Ok, I want to go back to my regular clothes Hadrian thought and watched in awe as the suit began to become smaller and return back into his regular clothes.
"Now that is cool" Hadrian says in excitement.
Hadrian took a deep breath as he found himself in his vigilante outfit (Classic Spiderman Black Suit) standing on top of a rooftop as the stars shined in the night sky.
A week has passed and money has begun to run low. Spending time in the suit, Hadrian learned that while wearing it, he was stronger, faster, more agile and he gained multiple other abilities. For starters he can make webbing like the man in the red and blue suit did but instead of regular webbing Hadrian's webbing was black. Hadrian could also stick to walls and had what he called a spider sense. It was the same thing that caused Hadrian's senses to scream and for him to see the gun in Vernon's jacket.
So with a few days of practice, Hadrian was ready for his first day of being a vigilante.
With a deep breath Hadrian let himself fall off of the rooftop. Hadrian's heart raced as he raised his hand up and shot web from his wrists like the man in the red and blue suit did. Hadrian saw the black web shoot from his wrist and attach itself to the building.
Hadrian laughed as he began to swing. Releasing the web, Hadrian flew into the air before he fired another web to a building. The black web attached to the building and Hadrian swang once more.
"Haha! Wooh!" Hadrian cheered, his voice altered making him appear and sound as an adult man.
Hadrian laughed as he swung from building to building. He was free. He was actually free, no more Dursleys, no more beatings. He was free to choose who he wanted to be.
As the night progressed Hadrian began to swing with confidence. Occasionally running on the side of the building and occasionally 360 spins, but he wasn't confident enough to do back flips let alone any flips, yet.
"No please!" The voice of a woman begged before a slap echoed throughout the area.
Hadrian paused and attached himself to a wall, watching what was happening.
"Give me the money!" a man in a mask growled as he held a gun in his hand
"Please, I have kids!" The woman begged as the man held her at gunpoint
"Give me the money!" The man snapped, pointing the gun at her.
Without hesitation Hadrian shot a web at the man and pulled him up off the ground before webbing him against the wall, several stories above ground.
Hadrian looked at the woman and dropped down, landing gracefully before standing up.
"Are you ok?" Hadrian asks, his voice still altered to appear as an adult.
The woman stared at Hadrian in shock. She was a beautiful woman with graceful blonde hair and a shapely body
"T-Thank you" The woman says with a bright smile
"No problem, head on home" Hadrian says as he prepared to leave
"Wait!" The woman yelled and Hadrian looked back only to feel her lips on his cheek
"Thank you" She says before running off.
Hadrian stood there in shock, before slowly touching the cheek that she kissed.
Thump
Hadrian looked at the ground to see several wallets. Looking up, Hadrian saw that they originated from the man from above.
Looking through the wallets to find that the man had stolen a total of $1623.25. Taking $400, Hadrian wondered how he was going to hide the money. Just then the suit engulfed the money in its goo and took it into the suit, shocking Hadrian.
So the suit can store the money. That's good. Don't want people to know that I take from those I stop Hadrian thought as he put the wallets on the wall, before trapping them in his web.
The rest of the night, Hadrian swung around only to find no crime to handle.
Hadrian sighed as he sat atop a rooftop, watching as night began to end.
Hadrian then noticed a warehouse not too far from him. Jumping off the rooftop, Harrian began to swing towards the warehouse.
Landing on the outside of the warehouse, Hadrian began to crawl towards the window and looked inside to see that it was completely abandoned. Cobwebs covering the corners, dust covering the area. Despite those minor things, it was a perfect place for Hadrian. A rooftop over his head sounded perfect.
Entering the warehouse, Hadrian looked around.
In the warehouse there were 2 floors, the first is where it seemed the majority of the items were kept while on the second story there was an office and extra storage area.
In the office was an old but still functioning cushion chair as well as a wooden desk.
This is probably the best place to stay for the moment Hadrian thought as the symbiote began to return back to its previous outfit.
With a yawn Hadrian sat on the chair and pushed the chair back allowing Hadrian to lay back comfortably.
It has been a month since Hadrian started fighting as a vigilante. With the money Hadrian took he found himself when taking out criminals gave him the ability to eat whatever he wanted, allowing Hadrian to start to recover from the malnutrition due to the Dursleys, and with running around fighting crime, Hadrian also started to become a lot healthier and fitter.
Hadrian sat outside eating his food, its starting to become colder as winter began to approach but thanks to the goo which Hadrian learned was called a symbiote, help kept him warm. Thanks to that, Hadrian didn't have to worry about getting clothes for the winter.
During his time crime fighting, Hadrian discovered that the longer he had the suit the more powerful he could become, now with the ability to use a symbiote tendril to pull criminals towards him made it easier should any criminals use a hostage, fighting was starting to become easier with both experience and increase in power.
After getting used to the power increase that the suit provides, Hadrian was finally able to hold back enough power to not kill any criminals on a single hit.
Figuring out my increased strength while wearing the suit was not fun Hadrian thought annoyed
Flashback
"Ok, let's do this" Hadrian says to himself as he puts his hand on the wall while wearing the suit. Hadrian watched as his hand stuck to the wall, and with that he slowly pulled himself up, placing another hand above his head. Soon Hadrian began climbing up the wall.
"Haha! This is awesome" Hadrian cheers as he climbs around like a spider.
As Hadrian continued to crawl around he eventually hopped back down and got ready to head out for his first night of crime fighting.
Heading towards the door, Hadrian grasped the handle and turned
Dink
The handle snapped.
"That's not supposed to happen" Hadrian says to himself as he looks at the handle.
Looks like I have to learn how to hold back Hadrian thought to himself, staring at the handle that was once attached to the door, now having to learn how to hold back his physical strength pushed back his first night in crime fighting.
Flashback end
And I had to be careful even after starting my first night. Couldn't punch anyone due to my lack of control so I just webbed them Hadrian thought as he threw his trash into the bin.
Hadrian walked on the sidewalk, his mind occupied by thoughts on how to pass the time until nightfall.
"Stark Industries have been continuing its legend as the number 1 weapons company in the world with Tony Stark being commonly referred to as The Merchant of Death, the American military has once more purchased more advanced weapons to further support America in its mission for world peace…" The Tv in a nearby store was on the news channel as a man in a tuxedo was informing the viewers on whatever Stark Industries were doing.
World Peace? Pff. As if Hadrian thought, shaking his head.
The world is a cruel place. If you have what it takes then you can survive. If not? Oh well Hadrian thought, disgusted by how the world worked.
It's always about chance which is soon followed by ambition, will power and cunning. If you have shit chance then your journey might end before it even begins. Poor family? Well you're going to have very little education making it harder to get a good paying job. Have a rich family that owns a multi billion dollar company? Well your going to have the time of your fucking life. Life always starts with chance.
And it's what you do with what you got that determines your strength Hadrian thought to himself as he made it back to the abandoned warehouse. His home.
The journey before him will be long and difficult. But he is ready.
Chapter 2: A Family
Swinging in the darkness of night, Hadrian was celebrating his 6th birthday by crime fighting.
With all the fighting and eating more to have the energy to fight, the malnutrition caused by the Dursleys was now a thing of the past.
With the swinging, jumping, running and fighting, muscles slowly started to form on Hadrian's body. Not enough to be visible but if looked at closely you can see signs of it beginning to grow.
Hadrian growled as he found himself searching for a lead on the children's fighting ring, kids who were taken off the street and forced into matches for the amusement of sick bastards.
"Get a move on! We need to get moving!" A voice orders and Hadrian looked to see a group of men entering an abandoned school building, which is several stories high.
Interesting. Wonder what they are doing Hadrian thought to himself as he swung towards the school.
Crawling on the ceiling, Hadrian slowly follows the men as they traverse the school.
"What are we even doing here?" the first thug asks, annoyance laced in his tone
"Would you shut up!" The leader hisses angrily
"There's no one even here, man. Chill out and explain what's going on" the second thug asks annoyed
"Fine!" The leader snapped "The boss wants us to collect a shipment that was left here by one of his contractors" The leader answered
"Ok. Geez no need cranky" The second thug says, taken aback by his leader's anger.
"Bet he's cranky because he lost a bet on one of the fights with… What was that kid's name again?" The third and last thug asks
"I believe his name was Red. Weird name but whatever" The first thug shrugs
"Yeah, Red despite being a kid, he is a beast when he fights" The first thug says, awe in his voice.
"Shut it!" The leader snapped as he continued to head deeper into the school.
Kid fights? They must have some involvement with the Children fighting rings Hadrian thought with a growing smirk.
Looking at the group, Hadrian crawled above the fourth thug who was at the far back of the group.
Dropping down, Hadrian covered the thug's mouth with his hand and pulled him up towards the ceiling where Hadrian covered him in black web, leaving him stuck to the ceiling. All of this in the span of a few seconds, too fast for any of the group to hear let alone see.
While the group, now a trio, remain unaware of their missing member, they eventually reach their destination on the 3rd story of the building.
"What is it?" The second thug asks confused
"We are supposed to retrieve it, not investigate it!" The leader snapped
In front of them was a metal large box with a large lock on the top
"Let's get this over with" The first thug sighed as he made his way towards the box with the second thug beside him
"Good, now I need all three of you too-" The leader paused as he looked back, the third thug missing "Where the hell is John!" The leader exclaimed.
From above, Hadrian dropped down, between the first and second thug before grabbing both their heads and slamming it against each other.
Hearing the sound of bodies hit the ground the leader turned around to see Hadrian, in his black suit.
"W-Who are you?" The leader stuttered, Hadrian's appearance scaring the leader
"I am someone you should fear" Hadrian says, his voice deeper and more mature due to the symbiote's influence "But who I am shouldn't be what you should be worrying about" Hadrian says as he lunged towards the leader, Hadrian's hand grasping the leader's neck.
SMASH
Hadrian slammed the leader against the glass, causing it to break, the shards flying out and landing on the ground below. The leader now found himself dangling from the outside of the school building, with Hadrian's hand strangling him.
"W-What. D-Do. Y-You. W-Want?" The leader struggled to speak out as his entire body was held outside of the school building.
"Where is the Children's fighting ring!" Hadrian demanded, his voice altered making him seem like an adult
"I-I don't know. W-What you are talking about" The leader says only to choke when Hadrian tightened his grip on the leader's neck
"Don't lie to me" Hadrian snarled, his mask's eyes narrowing in anger.
"I-I don't know a-anything" The leader struggled to speak
"Then I guess you are of no use to me then" Hadrian stated as he began to loosen his grip on the leader's neck.
Panic began to overwhelm the leader and it was only a matter of time before he croaked
"Ok! Ok! I'll tell you! Just please pull me back in!" The leader begged
"Tell me. Or my grip might just. Slip" Hadrian replied, releasing his grip on the leader before grabbing him by the collar as he began to fall
"Ok, ok! The children's fighting ring is at 12th Avenue Park(A.N: This is a place I just came up with so I think it means anything)
"If I find out you're lying then I will come back" Hadrian growled as he pulled the leader back in before webbing him up to the wall.
And with Hadrian's attention on saving the captured kids, Hadrian jumped out the window, completely forgetting about the box that was left behind.
Hadrian released his grip on his web at the end of his swing and landed on the side of the building and stuck himself to it.
In front of Hadrian was an abandoned apartment complex but Hadrian noticed that there were several people sneaking into the complex.
So without any further thought, Hadrian shot his web which attached itself to the complex and he swung towards the complex.
Once sticking to the wall, Hadrian began to crawl down the building, following after the suspicious individuals.
Bingo Hadrian thought with a smirk as he found himself crawling on the ceiling of an underground tunnel, the dim light leaving Hadrian in the darkness, hidden from those who handle the illegal children fighting ring.
The walls were made of stone, and floors covered in dirty and stained carpet, signs of lack of care from both the owners and the people gamble.
Just what kind of people come here? Is it criminals or those higher up in the society circle Hadrian thought to himself as he crawled.
Soon Hadrian heard the sound of people cheering, as they began to get louder, light began to shine at the end of the tunnel.
Upon reaching the end of the tunnel, Hadrian noticed that the ceiling was a lot higher than the tunnel, causing him to climb up the wall before reaching the ceiling.
Looking around, Hadrian saw that in the centre of the room was a pit where a pair of kids could be seen fighting.
Hadrian clenched his fists as he saw the bastards cheer as both kids were forced to fight each other until one of them was unconscious or too weak to fight.
Bastards Hadrian thought with a scowl on his face, as his mask's white eyes narrowed in anger.
Venom or the Symbiote, spent the last year with Hadrian. And Venom will admit that it was the best year of its life.
The fighting, the adrenaline and watching Hadrian grow made it feel proud, like an older brother helping their sibling achieve something incredible.
But Venom watched as Hadrian began to follow criminal after criminal, searching for the ones responsible for the children's fighting ring.
But what fascinated Venom was that Hadrian could control the anger that it naturally brought out and he directed it towards the right people, unlike Peter.
Venom and many others of its kind had many ways to keep themselves fed, brains was one, or chocolate, but strong emotions was another, such as love, excitement and anger. And Hadrian had much anger to enjoy.
Hadrian used the anger he had against the criminals, knowing how to hold back was what surprised Venom.
Peter was the best host before Hadrian came along, he was selfless even when he was suffering because of those bastards, Ditkovich that annoying idiot that would not stop asking about rent and .Jameson.
And yet Peter has never killed, never stolen. But Hadrian on the other hand. He killed his own family, granted they were bastards but still. Hadrian stole from criminals, yes, but he still stole.
But something that confused Venom greatly was that Peter was unable to handle the aggression that it naturally brought out while Hadrian was barely affected. Sure Hadrian had his moments of shit moods but nevertheless, he was able to control that anger.
Peter was basically the perfect naive hero, he never killed despite what some of the criminals have done, he never took from criminals to help himself, he was pure hearted. And yet Peter couldn't handle the anger.
But Hadrian on the other hand was nearly Peter's opposite, he killed the worst of the worst, such as his relatives, rapists and child rapists and molesters. Hadrian stole from criminals with the goal to keep himself fed and strong, so that he can keep on fighting the worst of the worst. But unlike Peter, Hadrian could handle that anger, control it, direct it. But never too far unless they deserve it.
It honestly confused Venom. But in Venom's eyes. Hadrian was the perfect host. Even more than Peter ever was.
In a dark room, 3 large cells can be found. Each one contained many individuals, but these individuals were not deserving of their current placement. They were children.
In these cells were children. All of the children in these cells were forced into the children's fighting ring against their will, taken off of the streets or bought off by drug or alcohol addicted parents/relatives in exchange for money.
But one child in particular sat in the corner, his hair was jet black, and his eyes were blood red, this child had no name and was called Red by everyone he knew.
Red sighed as he looked at the bars of his cell, the kids around him either resting/recovering or just talking to each other. Standing up, Red walked towards the bars of his cell and looked at the cell next to his
"Violet" Red softly called out
Inside the other cell was a beautiful black haired girl with beautiful violet eyes, she is the twin sister of Red.
Hearing her brother, Violet moved towards the bars of her cell and saw her brother
"Hey" Violet greeted with a sad smile
"Are you ok?" Red asks, worry etched in his voice
"I-I think so" Violet answers, fear in her voice
"We will get out of this. I know it" Red stated confidently
"I hope so brother. I hope so" Violet replies with tears forming in her eyes.
In Violet's cell was many other girls, unlike her brother, Violet was not forced into fights but 'prepared' to be sold off as a sex slave upon reaching the age of 15. Watching as girls are taken away, never to be seen again to new girls being put in her cell, Violet was afraid of her future.
"Hehe, look what we have here" A male voice causing all the children to look over to see a pair of guards enter the room
"Yeah, they think they can escape" The other guard chuckles darkly seeing Red comfort his twin
"It's so cute. They hold hope that they will be free" The 1st guard taunted, with a laugh after his taunt, amused by the childrens suffering.
THUD
A dark figure lands behind both guards, falling from the ceiling, surprising both the guards and the children.
Just as the guards turn around dark blades pierced through their chest before they are lifted off of the ground, attempting to grasp the blade that pierced their chests, the guards stare at the figure with horror, before they become limp and their eyes dulled as the life drained out of them.
The children shook with fear as the figure threw the guards off of its blades before looking directly at them.
As the figure walked towards the cells, Red stared at the figure as they stepped into the light. The figure was a man in a black skin tight suit with a giant white spider symbol on his chest.
"Jesus. How many of you are there?" The man in the spider costume says to himself, shock in his voice.
"A-Are you here to save us?" Violet asks hopeful, at the bars of her cell.
The man kneels and looks at Violet
"Yeah, I'm here to get you all out of here. But first I need to kill all the bastards here before I can free you" The man states with a slight growl at the end
"We can help you" Red states firmly
The man sighs and looks at Red
"I can't have you fighting grown men. I'm sure you're used to fighting kids your own age but I can't have you fighting grown adults. Relax and when it's clear I'll let you all out" The man states as he stood up
"Wait!" Another voice calls out, it was a girl with blonde hair and sapphire blue eyes, to everyone she is known as Sapphire
Original I know but it's the same with me and Violet Red thought to himself
"Yes?" The man asks, his white eyes narrowing slightly
"What's your name?" Sapphire asks with a slight head tilt
The man chuckles
"Call me Spiderman" Spiderman introduced himself before he turned around and pointed his hand towards the door and a black web shot from his wrist, attaching itself to the door and Spiderman pulled himself towards the door before kicking it, completely obliterating it with a single kick.
Those were steel doors Red thought in complete shock.
Hadrian growled angrily as he ran into several more guards.
He had spent the last 5 minutes going through the complex killing guards left and right.
Hadrian's senses screamed, all of it directed towards the guns in the guards hands.
As the bullets flew towards Hadrian, the world around him began to slow down. And with superhuman speed and agility, Hadrian dodged and flipped over the bullets before landing on all fours.
The guards stared at Hadrian in shock and ejected their magazines and attempted to reload as fast as they could.
With narrowed eyes, several tendrils sprouted from Hadrian's suit, grappling all the guards before they were pulled towards him.
Hadrian jumped in the air, kicking all of them in the face before using the tendrils to slam them into the ground, killing them from the force. (A.N: If you recognise what move that is then I fucking respect ya. Because I am going to use a lot of those moves from the game as Hadrian gets older)
As Hadrian looked around him he couldn't help but smirk darkly as he focused his senses, which Hadrian had dubbed Spider-Sense to locate any living guards.
Hadrian was able to locate only one guard still alive.
And so making his way towards the guard, Hadrian grasped the man's collar, bringing him face to mask with him.
"Your boss. Who is he and where is he?" Hadrian growled as his eyes narrow
"His name is Bill Cosbey. And he is off to plough your mother" The guard retorted, spitting blood onto Hadrian's mask
Hadrian pulled the man's collar forcing his head up, only for it to hit the ground as Hadrian smashed his fist into the guard's face
"I won't repeat myself. Who is your boss and where is he?" Hadrian demanded
"Only boss a'me, is me" The guard stated only for another fist to strike his face
"You want teeth? I want answers!" Hadrian roared, punching the guard in the face once more (A.N: That was a reference. If you know where it's from you're a legend. I always loved that line)
"What makes you think I will tell a lunatic like you? Running around in a spandex" The guard asks, laughing at the end.
Hadrian snarled and he raised his hand and the Symbiote created a blade.
"I will cut you up piece by piece until I get what I want" Hadrian growled, bringing the blade towards the man's eye.
"Ok, Ok! I will tell you!" The man screams out in fear as the blade was just millimetres from his eye.
"Who are you working for?" Hadrian growled
"Malfoy. I am working for Braxton Malfoy" The guard answers fearfully.
With a huff the blade returned back to the suit but immediately after, Hadrian punched the man in the face so hard that his skull caved in, killing him immediately.
Hadrian smiled as he watched all of the kids he freed run around the streets, laughing and cheering.
"Thank you so much Mr Spiderman" One of the kids says with a bright smile
"Don't worry about it. Just make the most of your life" Hadrian says with a smile
The kid nods their head excitedly before running off, joining up with their friends.
As the children began to leave, Hadrian noticed 4 children that had refused to leave.
"You 4 alright?" Hadrian asks worried
"Yeah, we're fine thank you" Red says with a smile as he comforts his sister, Violet.
"That's good to hear. Just fine the police station and I'm sure they will find you a new home. Best of luck to you 4" Hadrian says as he begins to leave
"WAIT!" Violet yells causing Hadrian to pause and turn to Violet
"What's wrong?" Hadrian asks worried
"You can't leave. Please don't leave us" Violet begged causing Hadrian to sigh
"Look, I'm sorry but my life is incredibly dangerous and I can't have you be involved. It's just too dangerous. Goodbye" Hadrian states as he shoots a web at one of the building which attaches itself onto a window and pulls himself up into the air
"YOU CAN'T!" Violet screams and a wave of energy explodes from her, destroying all the windows and causing the window that Hadrian was swinging on the break causing Hadrian to fall onto the ground.
Rolling, to avoid hurting himself, Hadrian turned to look at the kids. His mask's eyes widened, displaying his shock.
"Spiderman. We know your life is dangerous but we all have this weird ability. We can't really control it yet but we can help you" The 4th child, a male with dirty blonde hair and grey eyes says with determination in his eyes.
Hadrian sighs and stands up
"My life is a lot rougher than you think" Hadrian warns them
"We can handle a tough life" Red states firmly
"Very well. But you will not be joining me on patrol. That's a me thing" Hadrian states firmly
"As long as we can help im fine with that" Sapphire says with a bright smile
"Very well" Hadrian says, knowing that arguing with them would be no point
"Ok. Well Im Red" Red introduces himself (Black Hair, Red Eyes)
"Im Violet, im Red's sister" Violet introduces himself (Black hair, Violet eyes)
"Im Sapphire" Sapphire introduces herself (Blonde hair, Sapphire eyes)
"And Im Sebastian" Sebastian introduces himself (Dirty Blonde Hair, Grey Eyes)
Hadrian sighs and his suit slowly begins to return to its original jacket and pants.
All 4 children watch in shock as Spiderman was revealed to be a kid their age.
"I'm Hadrian. Nice to meet you" Hadrian greets with a smirk.
All 4 children stare at Hadrian in silence
"WHAT!?" The 4 scream in shock as they realise that the adult that had saved them was in fact a kid their age.
