Spells and Louds
Chapter 169: A Symbiote within a Sith
(Ketchum Park)
All of the Spellman's and some of their friends are all enjoying this wondrous winter moment.
Loni, Lincoln, Linka and Jordan are ice skating and with them was also Duchess.
Timmy and Sasha are both making a snowman.
Leni and Sunset are making snow angels.
Ember, Luna and Sam are chilling underneath a tree with their guitars.
Leon and Dana are chatting to themselves.
Peter, Sergei and Neil are both writing down a plan on what they were all going to do for New Year's Eve.
Gwen, Lily and Diana are sitting by the frozen lake watching the kids skate and teaching Lily how to properly read one of her alphabet books.
All of their Pokemon are tossing some snowballs at each other, even some ice type Pokémon are playing with them.
Back with Neil and Sergei.
"So, you think you can actually get your hands on a BM-13 Katyusha Rocket Truck?" asked Neil.
"I'm not quite sure. But I'll see what I can do" replied Sergei.
"If you can get one of them Rocket Trucks, I can use my Ghost Rider Powers to make them spectacular" replied Peter.
"Let's just hope you don't turn the fireworks into burning flying skulls" replied Neil.
Just then all three of them hear their stomach's rumbling.
Peter checks his watch. "Looks like it's about time for some lunch."
Neil looks to the others. "Hey! You guys want lunch?"
They all stop and look at Neil.
They all look at each other and smile. Then they all look back to Neil. "Yeah!"
"Okay then. Greenwich is right over there. Let's go and get us some pizza" said Neil.
They all cheer and head to the Pizza restaurant.
They all head inside and they spot Hollow and Musa in line.
"What the Hollow?" asked Lincoln.
Hollow and Musa spot them.
"Oh hey guys" said Musa.
"It's good to see ya. We were planning on going to your place" replied Hollow.
"Well, glad we met up with you guys first. Because we were just at the park" replied Leon.
"So, what brings you guys here and why come to us?" asked Linka.
"Well, we were gonna buy some pizza's so we can all sit and talk about something" Musa then looks to Hollow. "Important."
Hollow sighs. "Yeah, important."
This caught the attention of the others.
"Something tells me it's definitely a Hollow thing" said Luna.
"I can sense it as well" said Neil.
"Yeah, it's a me thing" replied Hollow.
"Just let us order and pay for the pizza" said Musa.
They all seemed suspicious by this" okay, I guess that's fine" replied Gwen.
Hollow smiles. "Just tell us what toppings you guys wa-"
Then a man in a black ski mask comes in with a gun and is robbing the place. Some of the Pokemon there take cover with the patrons. "Nobody move! Give me all of your cash and whatever valuables you all got!"
Then the robber stops and sees the Royal Defenders. "Oh come one! Seriously!" complained the man.
He then pulls out a hand grenade and is about to pull the pin. "Come any closer and everyone here gets fried!"
They all did not like this man and get ready to attack.
But they all get stopped by Hollow. "I got this guys, I think it's about time I showed you all something."
Hollow walks to the robber.
Musa smirks. "It's about to get wild in here."
Hollow walks towards the criminal who backs up in fear. "Hey! I said back off man! I'm serious!"
Hollow was now in front of him. "Go ahead, do it!"
Everyone gasps. "Hollow! What are you doing?!" yelled Dana.
The robber then pulls the pin on the grenade and Hollow grabs it and his hand morphs into a larger black hand and contains the explosion of the grenade.
They all are speechless at what he just did.
Hollow smirks and looks to the man. "You made a terrible mistake."
Soon black sludge envelops the Sith lord and his head becomes consumed by the same black sludge and his height grows.
He is now large, black with some white veins on his chest, white eyes and a mouth full of teeth and his voice is now a bit scarier.
"You have no idea what you have done fool!" said Venom.
The large creature then places his hand on his face.
Seeing this triggers Neil to ready some Deathwing fire.
Lincoln to change into flame thrower blaster.
Linka arming incendiary rounds.
"You have a lot of nerve coming here and running everyone's lunch time. These innocent people and Pokemon are just trying to enjoy some nice, juicy, tasty Pizza and you are being a complete nuisance!" said Venom.
The man whimpers in fear.
Venom moves his face closer to the man. "Do you have anything to say before I end you?"
The man just cries. "Okay, fear it is then."
He is about to eat him but is stopped by Musa. "That's enough Venom, the cops are on their way just let them take him in."
Venom looks to her and sighs. "You are lucky that you are the lover of the lord I serve."
He then looks back to the crook and let's his face go. "You should run while you still can."
The robber staggers and trips but he gets back up and runs away.
Then he runs the other direction being chased by police.
Soon Venom disappears and Hollow is left. "Well, that was terrifying."
He then looks to Neil and the others and smirks at their shocked faces.
"I have a lot to explain don't i?"
They all nod.
Neil looks to the cashier. "Four large Peperoni Pizza's, to go!"
(Ketchum Park)
They all sit on some picnic benches which they have combined with some other picnic benches. They are a big family.
And they all look at Hollow who is eating the pizza.
"What?" asked Hollow.
Neil sighs. "Mind telling me why you have a villainous marvel monster with you."
Hollow swallows. "Sure, Venom you can come out now."
Then coming out from his left shoulder was venom's head which startled everyone.
"Oh my god!" said Gwen.
"What in the what?!" yelled Leon.
"Whoa! Whoa! Whoa!" said Luna and Sam.
"Holy Chrysler me!" said Peter.
"Oh sweet Jesus!" said Sergei.
"This just got disturbing" said Lincoln and Linka.
Neil puts his pizza down. "I think I lost my appetite."
Some of the Pokemon faint seeing this thing.
Hollow grabs a slice of Pizza and feeds it to venom. "Now this is delicious!" said Venom. "Could use some hot sauce though."
They both look at everyone who is startled.
Musa intervenes. "Guys, guys. Please calm down and let Hollow speak."
They all calm down and put their weapons away and minimize their powers.
"Fine" said Ember.
"So, what the heck man?!" said Luna.
"Why is there a Symbiote on you?!" said Lincoln.
"How did you get that thing?" asked Leni.
Hollow smirks. "Well, it's a long story."
"We got time" replied Timmy.
Hollow sighs. "Okay. So a day after we had that big lunch meet up at Western Restaurant Nekoya, I was called by the Guardian about a Marvel universe and some kind of trouble. So I went there myself stealthily. But when I arrived I was too late and all I saw was this rocket exploding. I couldn't see anything else because of the intense fire, so I took my leave and went to report back to gyro. But I did not know some small creature latched onto me."
"And that would be me" replied Venom. "That was the time when Eddie Brock had to stop Riot from getting the rest of my kind to destroy the earth. I split myself into multiple fragments to at least try and survive the fire. Many of my pieces were destroyed, but by some luck one small fragment of myself latched onto someone and that someone is Hollow!"
"And then we both went to a restaurant with the Guardian, then it sent bad when someone came to rob the place and venom kicked in and took care of him" said Hollow.
"And when he means "Took care of him" he means we ate the robber" replied Venom.
Lincoln, Linka and Loni put their pizzas down.
"We both went back to Karazhan where Gyro scanned me and found the Symbiote within me. We were thinking of getting rid of him, but we decided not to" replied Hollow.
"So they decided to let me stay with Hollow and find a new purpose. Why save the earth, when I can help save the whole freaking Multiverse! But I do need some ground rules so I won't take things too far" said Venom.
"And then Hollow introduced Venom to me, I wasn't quite sure about this. But he soon explained that they were both linked and that he could be a good asset to saving the realms" said Musa.
"And you're okay with this?" asked Jordan.
"Yeah, I am. He's not so bad once you get used to him and he doesn't interrupt the alone time Hollow and I need. Thanks to Hollow Venom has some new abilities" said Musa.
"What do you mean new abilities?" asked Luna.
Hollow smirks and looks at Venom. "Show em."
Venom latches off of Hollow and is now on the table and is a small sludge with the venom face on. "Greetings Spellman's."
They all were shocked by this.
"H-How is he able to latch off of you?!" asked Lincoln.
"Doesn't he need a host or something?!" asked Linka.
"That's what you think" said Venom.
"In truth, since he became latched onto me. Some of my genetic strands latched onto him, so now he can sustain himself without the need of a host and can latch onto others" said Hollow.
"Just as long as they are compatible" replied Venom.
"Exactly" said Hollow. "Also he can form a weapon as similar to my light saber, I can use the force through him and wield my infinity gauntlet with him. Rendering both of us more powerful than ever, it took a while for my soldiers and the entire empire and Battleborn to get used to him, but now everything is chill."
"Indeed, I even celebrated my first Christmas with them" replied Venom.
Hollow then chuckled. "You should've seen the look on the rest of the Winx club when they saw Venom. Stella screamed then fainted, woke up, screamed then fainter! It was priceless!"
Even Venom chuckled.
Musa nudged him. "Hollow!"
"Sorry, sorry" replied Hollow. "At least they calmed down enough to accept him."
The Spellman's decided to calm down and not attempt to kill Venom.
"So, he's like part of your team now?" asked Diana.
"Sure is" replied Hollow.
"And you feed him daily?" asked Sasha.
"He can latch off of me and go to the fridge" replied Hollow.
"Any weaknesses?" asked Neil.
"Well, I am no longer vulnerable to fire and sound waves at any higher decibel. But my one true weakness is the death of the one I am bonded with" replied Venom.
They all look to Hollow.
"It's true, he is as immortal as I am" replied Hollow.
"Okay" said Dana.
Lincoln just looks to venom. "Welcome to the immortal council, I guess."
"Thank you commander, I will do whatever I can to aid all of you in any situation. Also you seem like a compatible host to me and so does your sister Linka and Luna" replied Venom.
Linka and Luna did not like what he just said. Same with Neil.
They all know Venom can sense who is strong and compatible to him.
"Venom stop. Let them be" said Hollow.
"Fine" Venom then returns to Hollow.
"Also he has his own little bed in my room. Most of the times he'd rather sleep in the living room instead" replied Hollow.
"It is much warmer there and less stressful with all of your force artifacts in your room" said Venom.
"Okay" said Neil.
"So, what are you guys planning for New Year's Eve?" asked Musa.
"We're still working on that one" replied Peter.
"What about you guys?" asked Gwen.
"Well, we're going to have a spectacular fireworks show on the Jennerit home planet with the Deathstar showing off some lights that I have installed" said Hollow.
This was a shocker to them. "So, you put a light show system in the Death Star?" asked Sam.
"Same with Starkiller base!" said Venom.
"I don't know what to say anymore" replied Leon.
Soon they all finish their lunch and say their goodbyes to Hollow and Musa. Oh and Venom too.
They all had a lot of things to talk about to Martin and the rest of the Royal Defenders. So in hind sight, the New Year was gonna give them a whole lot of unexpected surprises and more a rebound to come.
(I.M.P Building, Imp City Hell)
Loona is sitting in the lady demons restroom looking at a white plastic object. She kicked Millie out because she wanted some alone time.
She could see signs on the plastic object that it says red for positive.
Loona sighs and looks at herself in the mirror. "What am I gonna tell Sergei?"
She then leans on the wall and slides down and sits, then she cries and drops the small plastic object which still show the signs of positive.
Well, this can't be good.
To be continued …..
And now Venom is in the mix of things. And it seems Loona is gonna have to try and tell Sergei the good news, let's hope he can handle it. Leave a review and tell me what you all think.
