Special thanks to theallaroundnerd for his contributions to this chapter. I'm glad to have you around buddy
Now then. It's Morbin time
Wake up….
Wake up…
FOR FUCKS SAKE JUST GET YOUR ASS UP
"!" said Ashton falling off the couch
"Venom! What the fuck!?" Thought Ashton qs he felt his face twitch a bit
"Good your awake. Now let's eat" thought Venom
"Alright well go to Dunkin" thought Ashton
"Oh…. Yay…" thought Venom
"Don't tell me you crave brains already!" Thought Ashton anybody has he eats up with a migraine
"…No?..." thought Venom as Ashton rolls his eyes as he felt his face slightly twitch before getting up and giving himself a mild slap to stop that twitch.
To Silk
Early morning Cindy puts on what's on the TV. Scrolling through several channels before landing on SpongeBob
"-No your other bottom!"
"Don't you have to be stupid somewhere else?"
"Not until 4"
However, as she watched the show. She can't help but stare at her phone. She wants to give Ashton a call but wondered if it's a good time at all
"Well….. if he doesn't answer I'm sure goopy would answer" thought Cindy. Debating on whether she should or not. Before deciding she would as she grabbed her phone and called him
….
She was eagerly awaiting if he would respond or not
….
"Yeah?" said a voice she recognized as Ashton's
"Ashton?" said Cindy
"What's up?"
"Checking on you" said Cindy "And I'm wondering if I can see you today."
"Oh uh… sure"
"Great I'll see you then" said Cindy brightening up. Albeit she did notice his tone "Is everything ok?"
"I think so"
".alright then. I can't wait" said Cindy as she hung up and got dressed as she looked at her camera with some good pictures that she's taken lately of her Silk persona and Venom and taken what she thinks are the best ones and leaves
Heading over to the main building she certainly thinks. Now that she knows Venom is Ashton. And there's goopy as well who seems to be the source
"Its been a real sad day…. Of course Spiderman and Silk have joined forces once again to fail to truly stop that red-"
Cindy stopped paying attention as she made her way to the Daily Bugle. Upon going in to head to Jonah's office seemed normal enough
However there was a blonde haired man with familiar sense to him. She couldn't pit her finger on it.. but she dismissed this and made her way. She then enters his office to see him finishing up a cigar
"Hm?" said Jameson as he turns around from the window
"Is this a bad time?" said Cindy as Jameson tosses his cigar away
"Of course it is. Unless you got something for me" said Jameson
"Well. I have some pictures of Silk and Venom"
"Who's Venom?" said Jameson
"He's the guy you called Spiderman" said Cindy as Jameson perks up as she holds up multiple photos as he takes them "Hm… interesting" as he then steps up from his seat
"The web slinging menace Silk and her nefarious partner in crime Spiderman" said Jameson striking a pose making Cindy sweatdrop "Alrighty. I'll give you 450 for them?"
Cindy looked at him in…confusion.
"Fine. 650 just for you" said Jameson as Cindy gives a smile and Jamesons begins writing the check and hands it to her.
"Thank you so much, sir." said Cindy as she leaves his office.
"Venom is a nice name. But I'll stick with Spiderman like the new menace he is." said Jameson as he turns on a TV "I could just wonder what Spiderman is doing right now?"
To Spiderman
"WHOOOOOOOOAAAAHHH" yelled Spiderman as he was now back into the subspace he was in earlier as he webs some debris to slow his fall before managing to land onto a clock tower.
He then dusts himself off and looks around, "Great. Now I'm here again" muttered Spiderman debating in where he should go considering the possibilities are endless "Ashton I hope you're doing alright" as he jumps and swings through the subspace.
He narrowly dodges one mirror before almost running into another but webbing a big rock and used it to take his place.
Sure enough the mirror got smashed.
"Oooh…." Said Spiderman before moving on from that. Sure enough he was seen by 2 people
"Look Heavy!" Said a man with a German accent "Die ßhpiderman!" as he pulls a device and points it to a figure coming out of the shade
"Dah" said the much taller man as he pulls out a minigun "Lets see if Itty bitty man outsmart bullet" with a thick Russian accent
Spiderman gets a spidey sense and looks over at the Heavy and his spinning minigun
"Oh no" said Spiderman
"EEEEYAAAH!" yelled the Heavy as he unleashed minigun fire at Spiderman
"Oh shit!" yelled Spiderman as he shoots a web to pull himself closer to more floating structure as some were being torn apart by the gunfire
Spiderman then ducks behind an old soviet style building
"HERE I COME COWARD RAAAAH!" as Heavy unloaded the last of the bullets in his minigun
Spiderman braces for impact as lots of windows and bricks began to fall apart "How the hell are these structures even here?... oh yeah.."
"You did well Sasha. Kiss me" Heavy said to his minigun as the German man smacked the back of his head "Ah! Stupid Medic!"
"Focus doomkuff. Schnell!" said the Medic pointing to where Spiderman is
Spiderman pokes his head out from the corner
"Charge me!" said Heavy cracking his knuckles as Medic used his device to charge him as he a red aura around him while his skin looks metallic as Spiderman webs a very large barrel and swings it Heavy's way
Heavy leaps into the air in fast speed bursting straight theory building grabbing Spiderman by the leg and thrusting him into more debris
"Ow.. you hit harder than kingpin" said Spiderman as he narrowly avoided another jump charge from Heavy. Spiderman then punches his back only for Heavy to not even be phased "!" as he avoided being grabbed by Heavy again
"Keep still Spider! These fists want to meet you!" yelled Heavy as Spiderman webbed his face "Gff!" as the moment he rips it off Spiderman webs a big rock yanks it towards Heavy's way. Only to be destroyed without Heavy even flinching
Spiderman then looked at his surroundings and tried to see what other thing he could fling
"Heavy! Speed dis one up!" said Medic as Heavy nodded
Upon hearing that. Spiderman knew what to do. Just delay him. As he then webbed Heavy's feet to the ground to keel him still as he webs his arms down
"Ha!" said Heavy as he effortlessly ripped the webbing off him. Sliding off like a glove. This made Spiderman thing of something else as he narrowly avoided another massive lunge from Heavy breaking part of the land off
Then finally all that power wore off. And Spiderman took this as his chance to web the Medic's device and stick into the wall
"DOOMKUFF!" yelled Medic "DÄFUR WIRST DU BEZAHLEN!" shaking his fist angrily at Spiderman who obviously didn't understand a word he said
Heavy pulled out a shotgun and fired several rounds
"WHOAH" yelled Spiderman as jumped behind more concrete debris as to avoid more gunfire as he leaps out to web the shotgun to the side to wen the ground, giving him more force to launch at Heavy
Heavy then tried punch him away as Spiderman twisted and spin kicked his face. Qmd punched his gut q few times before Heavy landed a big punch on him. Heavy grabbed him and slammed him to the ground similar to how Kingpin would do it
But before he could power bomb him. Spiderman webbed his face leading Heavy to try to take out off. Spiderman then punches his several more times before ending it with by webbing him and swinging him into Medic
"!" said Medic as Heavy crashed into him
"You guys…. Nearly had my ass" said Spiderman as he swings off
They both groaned and Heavy rolled off Medic. He pulls out a sandwich and starts eating he offers another to Medic who puts his hand up to say "no"
Medic pulls out a phone
"Did you get him?"
"Nein" said Medic "But I am sending general coordinates now"
To Ashton
"I see you are fidgety," said Carlton. "No need to be nervous."
"Yeah? I'm sure it comes with suspicions" said Ashton as Riot tendril pops out of Carlton's shoulder
"Do not test my patience boy. We are trying to give you a chance" said Riot
"Ease up Riot" said Carlton as Riot reluctantly retracts back into him
"Are you just going to take that? That asshole had tried killing me and your father!"
Ashton ignored Venom's thought as he drank his coffee as he looks to Otto working on a device
"So uh… how's the device?" said Ashton
"There are some material needed to make this work" said Otto "I recommend we go 'shopping' for them"
"And what kind of material are you talking?" said Ashton
"Government material" said Otto as Venom sticks out of Ashton's shoulder to go up to Otto's face
"What do you mean Government material!?" said Venom as one of Otto's mechanical arms reaches for a mug
"Well this powerful material is illegal to possess unless with Government permission" said Otto as he takes a sip
"Ah! Fucking hell!" said Venom as he retracted back into Ashton as he twitches a bit more
"Are you sure you're alright boy?" said Otto looking at Ashton qas twitches a bit more
"Yes I'm sure… I'm gonna go" said Ashton leaving Baron building leaving Carlton and Otto to look at each other curiously before resuming their business
Ashton checks his phone to see he has received a text from Cindy
Hi Ashton! Wyd rn? – Cindy
Pretty much nothing. You? – Ashton
I just finished my errands. You up for anything? –
"GIMME CHOCOLATE" thought Venom excitedly
"Well we'll get the damn stuff when we meet up with her" thought Ashton
"Good" thought Venom
Sure. Maybe a coffee? – Ashton
Sweet. Can't wait :) also, Hi Goopy! – Cindy
"WHAT!? She called me that again!" thought Venom as Ashton tried to hold in a laugh "You can't keep letting her get away with this"
Ashton tried to hold in his laugh
"ASHTON!" thought Venom as Ashton puts his phone away
"Relax Venom you should be fine" thought Ashton as he walked over making his way towards the general areas looking at all the shops
However. Whenever he looked at the large crowds he felt a strange compulsion besides a slight twitch
A flash of destruction encompasses his mind for a moment. Before the thought of Carnage just appearing out of nowhere
"…" sais Ashton as he shake his head as he began to think of Cindy entered his mind again
"Ashton… I need food" thought Venom as Ashton ominously looks at a nearby crowd
"We'll have some soon enough" thought Ashton as he then checks his phone
Hey Ashton. You want to go to the same Starbucks I saw you? – Cindy
Yeah. I'm on my way now – Ashton
"Easy enough" thought Ashton making his way over to where he knew that Starbucks was and went in. He looked over to see Cindy speaking with who he assumes to be her friend. Then her friend returns to her work as Ashton swoops over to join Cindy
"Hey" said Ashton sitting down at her table
"Hey Ash" said Cindy brightening up "You have a nice rest?"
"Yeah it's been ok" said Ashton "I'm already my coffee" making her giggle as they both get in line to order their coffee while Ashton buys a bunch if chocolate bars
"You know Jameson really doesn't like you as much as me" said Cindy as Ashton held in a chuckle
"Not surprised" said Ashton as a waiter brings their coffee over
"YAAY! GIMME GIMME GIMME!" thought Venom excitedly Ashton postponed his hand over his mocha and from his sleeve. Venom as a very small tendril pokes out and excitedly goes in
"Aww goopy is a little" said Cindy making Venom poke up to stick his tongue out at her before resuming the coffee making her giggle at that silly notion "So what are you planning to do soon?"
"Oh uh" said Ashton as he heavily resisted a twitch as he sees Venom finish the coffee and retract back into him "Nothing that I'm aware of"
"Well… if you want. We can swing together" Cindy subtly qs Ashton smiles knowing what she means
"I'm going to have to take that offer" said Ashton
"Congratulations Ashton you did something by yourself" thought Venom "Now ask her. Ask her about her photography"
"How's your photography?" said Ashton as it perked Cindy's interest
"Oh its going great" said Cindy happily as she pulled up some pictures of scenery, her as Silk, and some pictures of Ashton as Venom "What do you think"
"Damn" said Ashton "Those look great" as she was very happy to hear that from him as she showed him a few more pictures as Ashton gets a text from Carlton
Hello Ashton this is Otto, I want you to see us in two hours – Carlton
"Who's that?" said Cindy noticing
"A friend" said Ashton lightly "Don't worry about that"
"Alright then" said Cindy as she finished up her coffee "So what do you want to do next?"
"Hmm…. Want to see a high view?" said Ashton as Cindy smiled knowing what he meant
"I would love to" said Cindy happily as after a few more moments "You go out I'll have to get ready first"
"Sweet" said Ashton as he leaves the Starbucks to go into an alleyway as Venom stick out his back as q tendril
"Well Ashy boy. Why must you allow such foolishness from her?" said Venom as Ashton began unwrapping one chocolate bar
"Because it's amusing" said Ashton as Venom opens his mouth for Ashton to place the bar in
"*chomp* well at least the chocolate *nom* is good" said Venom as he opening his mouth for Ashton to put more chocolate in *Chomp*
"Hey Mr. V" said Silk as she lowered herself down with her webbing "You just about ready?"
"Almost" said Ashton as he puts the last two chocolate bars in Venom's mouth *chomp* before Retracting into him "alright then" as he morphs into Venom
"Now I'm ready" said Venom as they both walked up the Starbucks building to start swinging away "You know what's you're favorite spot?"
"Just follow me" said Silk as they continued swinging when they reached an extra tall building and climbed up
"Ah.. they beautiful sight of New York" said Silk as Venom took a seat next to her
"Not that many other cities can compare" said Venom as they enjoyed the views albeit Venom held down a twitch again as much as he could
"You know I hope you do t mind me asking" said Silk gaining Venom's attention "When you fought that red guy… you bulked up. Similar to hulk"
"Yeah?.. well I do it sparingly" said Venom
"….Not bad Ashton. Not bad" thought Venom
"I see" said Silk "Is there any other interesting ability that you have?"
"….besides what you have already seen. Not really" said Venom
"Alright then" said Silk as she took a stretch
"Now ask her if she ever feels like going outside the city" thought Venom
"You know… you ever thought about going to other cities. Just to explore what's there?" said Venom
"Er…" said Silk as she refrained from mentioning that she was trapped for years and couldn't "Well let's say I had my own obligations for staying"
"Oh" said Venom
"However. I would love to go to South Korea" said Silk "Hmm… maybe even France or Germany"
"That's always fun" said Venom
"How about you?" said Silk
"Poland and Spain" said Venom catching her interest
"Nice" said Silk "Well. You know. If someone other than us can watch the place. I would take a vacation"
Venom resisted a chuckle as he remembered what did. Though he wonders when the other Venom will show up. And he also remembered he has to go see the other sin about less than an hour
"Surprisingly peaceful" said Venom as Silk nodded in agreement
"You think such as sight will last forever?" said Silk
"…I think so. But I'll take in it as much as I could" said Venom
After a few more moments of sitting and surprising enough, nothing happening. Venom gets up
"Silk I'm very happy to this with you. We should do it soon" said Venom
"Well big boy. I look forward to it" said Silk knowing he's heading out waving each other goodbye as Venom dips down to swing away
A little later
Ashton is back at Baron' building where he comes in and all the sentient dolls made sure to avoid him as he goes to the main room where Baron sat down with Otto and Carlton
"You're 5 minutes late kid" said Otto with mild annoyance
"But it's better than not showing up" said Ashton as Otto rolls his eyes
"Call him Mr. Octopus" thought Venom
"Mr. Octopus" said Ashton as Otto got a look of confusion for a moment before shrugging that off
"Well kid at least make a better effort" said Otto as he continued inspecting his machine
"So what's up?" said Ashton
"Considering my device isn't finished just yet. We still have much material we cant…. 'legally' obtain" said Otto
"Fuck man. Why not have Carlton do it?" said Ashton
"I would but. I'm currently on guard for Mr. Kasady, I don't want to get my hands dirty here. When you could do the job worse" said Drake
"Asshole" thought Venom stick a middle finger tendril out as Ashton instinctively grabbed it and pulled it behind him while giving a sheepish smile
Carlton rolls his eyes as he finishes up his tea
"Well boy. Are you up to it or not?" said Otto as two of his mechanical arms looked at Ashton a bit uncomfortably close to his face "I can't have you running my patience if you want this done"
"…ok" said Ashton "So what's the stuff we have to get?"
"Well considering we are on New York. We have everything here" said Otto "Well first we have to steal a stash of plutonium"
"WHAT" said Ashton as Otto nodded
"But aren't they usually incredibly expensive and illegal to have unless with Government permission?" said Ashton
"Of course. But you'd expect everyone to follow the law?" said Otto plainly
"…..good point" said Ashton "…so how exactly we are going to-….Oh…" said Ashton
"It took you this long? I'm sure you're the goldfish at this point Ashy boy" thought Venom making Ashton frown
"We will strike at midnight. Set an alarm and meet us back here" said Otto
"…ok" said Ashton as Venom sticks out as a tendril to sneak over to drink Baron's coffee when he wasn't looking
"Hey!" Said Baron "Who drank my coffee" as Venom mischievously giggled when he retracted into Ashton
"Before I go. Anyone else coming?" said Ashton as Otto's mechanical tentacles began seeming talking to him
"….yes…. That would be greatly helpful" said Otto to himself a he look at Ashton "I know 3 guys…"
"I thought he didn't know anybody" thought Venom
"Guess he does here" thought Ashton as Venom then sticks out of Ashton
"However we have a problem" said Venom making Otto raise a brow "Our favorite superhero Silk"
"So we just fight her off" said Otto plainly
"NO. It's not that simple. We need a distraction" said Venom "She knows who I am. As in me and Ashton. If she sees us getting involved. It will complicate things"
Upon hearing that. Carlton and Baron look in amusement
"We need a distraction. Something that could keep her busy long enough that we can pull this without her seeing our involvement" said Venom
"Hmmmm…. Yes…. That is a fascinating idea…" said Otto as he looks at his mechanical arms "I trust you can find a way to distract your girlfriend" making Ashton turn a bit red
"Er….." said Ashton as Venom headbutted him "Ow!" Carlton tries to hold in a laugh upon seeing that while Baron was certainly caught off guard by it
"You know maybe a supervillain that could keep her busy?" muttered Ashton with his hand on his nose
"..."
"I know one" said Baron adjusting his top hat "I can try to convince him to rob a farther bank. That may give you guys time"
"Now that is awesome. Welp. See you guys again in a bit" said Venom as he retracted back into Ashton and he then makes his way out Baron's place. However. When he left. He felt another twitch
"I swear this will drive me insane" thought Ashton referring to his spasms as he then looked over at q group of people
The thought of going in a rampage flashes his mind. Normally he wouldn't care. Though he doesn't want to risk being stuck here… or Cindy seeing it
"I don't know Ashton. Strangely enough all those people look good enough to eat" thought Venom in a very different tone than usual "-Wait what am I saying!?"
"Be patient and we'll get food" thought Ashton as he leaves Baron's building and heads into the city. Seeing lots more people passing by makes him feel a bit anxious trying his hardest not to twitch again
Sure enough he makes his way into the Chinatown area around where not of their seafood was being sold
"NI How may help you ?" said the old man as Ashton looks at a lobster bucket
"…..fuck it" thought Ashton as he can't hold it much longer as he snapped his arm into the bucket grabbing a lobster
"Would you like that one?" said the old man as he found it weird but saw Ashton as a guy who is straight to the point
*chomp*
This stunned the old man as Ashton buts what's theft of the lobster on the table
"This is dead" said Ashton pointing to the chomp mark he made
"You are crazy boy" said the old man "And that's 30 American" making Ashton pull out wallet to keep himself from twitching and hands the old man the money
"Would you like bag?" said the old man
"S-Sure" said Ashton as the old man puts the dead lobster in a bag and hands it to him
"Hmmm… must be one of German people I hear of' said the old man
When he got far enough away he then violently compared at what's left of his lobster as he felt his phone rings and he nearly drops it before Venom's tendril grabs it
"Thanks" said Ashton aloud
"No problem" thought Venom as he drops it in Ashton's hand and retracts back into him
"Hello?" said Ashton
"Hey!~"
"Oh hey Cindy" said Ashton "Uh… what's up?"
"Just wondering how you are doing"
"Tell her that everything is fine" thought Venom
"Everything is fine" said Ashton thinking about what will happen soon
"Ask her what she will be up to later" thought Venom
"Is there something you want to do later?" said Ashton
"I was thinking. Maybe a patrol before midnight. Dawn pictures are gonna be fun~"
"Well have an hour" thought Venom
"Yeah I'd love to" said Ashton
"Great! I'll see you then!"
Ashton give a slight smile before she gets up
"…Hey Venom?" thought Ashton
"Yeah?" thought Venom
"Do I have lobster breath?" thought Ashton
"If you didn't have me around. Your oral smell would be horrible" thought Venom making Ashton internally sigh in relief as he walks to the park to sit at a park to watch bunch of ducks
"Tch" said Ashton sitting back and watched the ducks do their business "If only if we had duck food"
"Room for another?" said Cindy
"!" said Ashton caught off guard
"That surprised you? I thought you already noticed her" thought Venom "You dolt"
"I am so sorry for startling you!" said Cindy
"No no your fine" said Ashton reassuring her as he gestured for her to sit "What brings you around here?"
"My photography" said Cindy cheerfully as she showed him some pictures on her camera "I wanted to take pictures of some of the ducks and some park pics. And then I noticed you nearby so I had to see you"
"I'm glad you are around. Makes things easier" said Ashton
"Oh really? For what?" said Cindy
"Hanging out" said Ashton making her laugh, making her face brighten a little
"Hm. Seems to work. And I didn't have to help you that time" thought Venom
"How are you goopy?" said Cindy as Venom responds by sticking out as a tiny tendril to stick his tongue at her before retracting back into Ashton who couldn't stop chucking
"He's fine" said Ashton
"OH WHY!?" thought Venom in annoyance as Cindy scooches over to him
"….wanna patrol now?" whispered Cindy making him smile
"Absolutely" said Venom as they both got up and made their way to an alley way to suit up. Then from there on. They both once again swung through the city
"J. Jonah Jameson here. Here to tell news. We have successfully remedied the damages no thanks to those menaces Silk and Spiderman!"
"I can't tell if he does that on purpose or not" said Venom as he and Silk both clung onto a wall
"You know him. Doubt it's on purpose. He just doesn't care Spiderman" said Silk playfully
"Hey!" said Venom
"Don't worry. Given probably a few weeks he'll properly know your name" said Silk
"Of course.." said Venom "….hey who's that?"
"?" said Silk looking where he's referring to
An armored man in green with stolen bag of money
"Scorpion" said Venom qnd Silk in unison. They then look at each other and smiled
"Its fun to do it again" said Silk "Now let's go" as they both jumped off the building to swing towards him
"Huh. He looks way different than the one we know. He's not that green and he has his legs?" thought Venom
"I doubt he's as strong as our one" thought Ashton
"Haha suckers!" said Scorpion as bullets were deflecting off him and he chucks a bomb over at the police
*Boom*
"Hey Green bean! How's the run?" said Silk webbing his legs putting his to a stop
"SILK! I should've known!" said Scorpion angrily breaking out of the web and aimed his tail
"Hello there" said Venom coming from behind her
"And you!... the Night Monkey guy!" said Scorpion as he pulls out a laser gun
"What is that? A pea shooter?" said Venom as he then dodges a beam "Whoah!... where the hell did you get that?"
"Not telling bitch!" said Scorpion as Silk jumps at him first. As he dodges his tail sting which cracked the concrete
She then side kicks him in the chest as she then webs a sign to swing at him
He then grabs the sign and tosses her off it he was going to sting her until Venom grabbed his stinger tail. He tried to pull it out of Venom's hands to no avail while Silk watches in mind amusement
"Uh oh" said Scorpion angrily Venom swung him onto the ground "Oof!" Qnd Venom launched him farther onto to the rod nearly landing on someone's asshole
"Good going asshole. You're making the line wait longer!" said an older man honking his car horn
"Hey fuck you!" said Scorpion angrily flipping off the guy in the car before continuing to shout profanities at Scorpion before seeing Silk and Venom go after him. As Silk then webs his foot "?"
"WHAOH!" yelled Scorpion as both Silk and Venom both yank him closer for them both to punch
*pow*
They both shoot their webs on him to restrain him
"Ah sh-" said Scorpion as Silk webbed his mouth
"Pathetic" thought Venom
"That was… easy?" said Venom
"Easy? Venom you seemed to have high expectations of him" said Silk as they both swing away
"Just wait until you meet the Scorpion we know" thought Venom as they both climbed onto the rooftops
"Well that was fun" said Silk as she then hangs upside down a billboard with Venom. She then looms qt him for a moment
"….yeah?" said Venom
"Can I ask you a question?" said Silk "If you don't mind at all"
"…sure?" said Venom slightly unsure
"How did you meet goopy?" said Silk
"You are so mean!" said Venom as Silk could clearly tell that's not Ashton speaking as she giggled at his reaction
"Well…. It's kind of a long story" said Venom as she listened "…I wasn't the first person Venom bonded with"
"What." Said Silk dumbfounded
"We'll leave it at that" said Venom as he remembers what happens to his father for a moment before brushing it aside "I'm very sorry if it's not satisfying"
"No no you're fine" said Silk as she could immediately tell that would be a very personal story and didn't want to push it
"…Is there something else you want to ask?" said Venom
"You met any other superheroes?" said Silk
"Uh…Hawkeye?" said Venom making Silk try her best to hold in a laugh
"You can't be serious" said Silk
"Unfortunately yes. Honestly I was so happy when didn't have to see him. You can't get more pathetic than him" said Venom as Silk playfully punches his arm as she then lowered herself to the roof followed by Venom
"Now that's mean" said Silk chuckling
"I mean hey its true" said Venom as they both laughed together
"You got anything you want to ask me then? " said Silk as Venom then pulls out his phone when he felt a vibrate
Ashton. I found 3 guys willing to help us. If you want that distraction. I suggest looking soon. By the way this is Otto – Baron
Venom then puts his phone away
"Actually I have an idea" thought Venom
"That your friend again?" said Silk
"You know it" said Venom
"Does this mean you have to go soon?" said Silk
"Not yet. We can stick around for a little more" said Venom as they both sat down to watch the sun fully set down and the city to start illuminating with all of its New York Billboard looks
"Hey Cindy?" said Venom
"Yeah Ash?" said Silk
"….I'm glad to do this with you" said Venom as Silk smiled behind her mask. She then slightly smooches closer to him
"Ashton… her hand is right there" thought Venom looking over at her hand
"Ok" thought Ashton
"Now intertwine fingers" thought Venom
"What!?" thought Ashton
"Don't be shy Ashy boy" thought Venom
"But what of she doesn't like it? It's only been a few weeks here!" thought Ashton nervously
"Ok then. Then we'll be small and subtle" thought Venom
"….I… I don't know" thought Ashton as he liked the idea. But was scared to try "What if she doesn't like it?"
"She seems fond of you enough for small and subtle. … you know what just let me do it" thought Venom
"Wait no!-" thought Ashton as Venom slid his hand closer to Silk's where their fingertips are slightly touching "…fuck"
Silk's face turned red a little bit. But she certainly didn't mind
"Hey Ash?" said Silk
"…Yeah Cindy?" said Venom
"I'm glad to have someone here to have around. Makes me way less alone" said Silk
The moment Venom heard that his heart felt like it could plummet to his stomach reached with guilt. However. Maybe there's a way. There's an Eddie Brock out here that could fight with her. Maybe…. He could a do a better job than himself
"Ashton…. Relax… it will be alright" thought Venom
They both sit for a fee moments longer before Venom gets up
"I have to get back soon. Don't want sleep in too late" said Venom getting up
"I guess your right. Crime can't be out on a good night" said Silk getting up to stretch
"See ya then Cindy" said Venom as the wave each other goodbye and part ways swinging
"Ok so what's the plan?" thought Ashton
"The pub" thought Venom
"That place?" thought Ashton
"I figured you'd want a distraction that's not very good. But not very had at either. The perfect distraction" thought Venom
"Alright… lead the way" thought Ashton as her stops at one building to walk down the walls to the ground and unmorphed
But as he walked. He felt more twitching
Later
Ashton then arrives. At the Bar With No Name
"…this looks exactly the same as the one we are from" thought Ashton with a deadpan look "I'm starting to wonder if it was a good idea not telling Peter about this place"
"I thought we already did?" thought Venom
"That one was the old location. And I'm pretty sure Peter already had an idea before we confirmed it" thought Ashton
"Oh yeah" thought Venom as Ashton knocks on the door
"Get lost kid" said the security Maki g Ashton frown and knock again "Hey I just told you to scram"
Ashton knocks again with a smug face making the guard roll his eyes and closes the blind. Ashton knocks one last time but to no avail
"Hehehe… my turn" thought Venom
From behind the door. The thug guard thought Ashton probably left. But then
*Bam*
The depression flung open with Ashton walking nonchalantly
"Aright kid that's it!" said the thug as he throws a fist at Ashton to miss "Hu-OOOOO!" he relieved a punch in the gut making drop to his knees to hold onto his pain
"Tsk tsk" said Ashton "Should've let me in" as he walked down the shady steps where he found hear loud obnoxious pop music "Well their taste sucks"
"For fucks sake. Of all things they okay a pathetic Disney song? I hate frozen" thought Venom
"Well you can destroy it when we get closer" thought Ashton as he walked through the double doors "Way less security than what I was expecting"
When Ashton looked around he got some suspicious stares from the patrons as he looked around to see who he wants to ask
From the back corners. He can see a cowboy dressed man sipping down a large beer cup
"Shocker. Perfect. But first" thought Ashton as he looked at the radio
"You are kinda young to be here" said a voice behind him. Ashton turns around to see its from a female voice. A voice he would recognize
"Don't mind me Poundcakes. I don't come to drink" said Ashton as she looks at him with suspicion while Ashton as his arm morphs
"Can't hold it ba-*Smash*
Everyone was shocked
"Asshole that's the radio!" said one patron before chugging on his beer and collapsing from drunkness
"Hey bozo! I loved that song!" said one extremely annoying voice. Which instantly pissed off Ashton the moment he knew who said it
"Whats the matter? Can't deep throat a cockroach without it?" said Ashton at the voice whilst making Poundcakes snort
"Oh Toad he gotcha there hahahahahaha!" said Poundcakes
"What the fuck you say about me!?" said Toad. Ashton twitches a little more as he then sees an excuse
"Well shortstuff. Your short on hearing as well" said Ashton doing his best to hide a smile twitching a bit more
"Well boy your dead meat!" said Toad as shoots a barf shot and Ashton instantly ducked and it hits a random portrait of Dr. Doom while many patrons watched in interest and Ashton ominously chuckles
"Or so you say…" said Ashton as Toad lunges at him. Ashton's arm snaps out and grabs Toad by the neck and holds a tight grip "Pathetic" as he tightens his grip when Toad struggled
"*ACK* WHO? *UCK*" mustered Toad
Ashton then ominously chuckles as he morphs into Venom. And then bulks up to his larger more terrifying form up to his face
"We. Are Venom" said Ashton and Venom as they fully morphed. He then opens his mouth revealing his sharp teeth
*chomp*
Toad's headless body is thrown to the side while everyone watches in shock. Venom then stares at Shocker
"Now now yall. I prefer to keep my head" said Shocker nervously as Venom looks ominously over him
"Whatever he did he really fucked up" muttered Melter as he drinks his flask
"Same for Froggy boy" said Poundcakes
"Listen…I need a favor" said Venom to Shocker as did his ominous smile "And you'll keep your head"
Later
Ashton returns to Baron's building where upon entering the door and teddy bear runs off again. He sees Otto seemingly briefing 3 thugs with Baron as one if the mechanical tentacles takes notice of him
"Ah Ashton. Perfect timing" said Otto
"…who are they?" said Ashton
"They will be our ride and storage" said Otto "What about your distraction guy?"
"Yeah I got that covered" said Ashton
"If there are none. I will hold you responsible" said Otto
"You got it Otto" said Ashton as the five of began to leave the building and get in q van
"and get me some. I need it for my potions" said Baron sticking out the door
"No promises" said Ashton as Baron closes his door as they drove off "So around the time we arrive. The bank should get robbed by Shocker?"
"Shocker?" said Otto in confusion
"Yeah. Shocker" said Ashton as Otto rolls his eyes
"Your pun is terrible" said Otto as Ashton was so confused
"That wasn't a pun" said Ashton
To Cindy
Cindy was contemplating giving Ashton a call. Though she want sure if he would be sleeping around thus time or simply busy. While Pokémon is playing on TV
"….Did I already ask him if he likes pokemon? Eh I probably did" thought Cindy as she stretched her legs while watching
She checks her phone again to see no new texts. As much as she would've liked some. Its still late at night
But before she decided she could really relax. She felt her Silk sense go off
"Well. I guess that's something" said Cindy as she gets dressed "Maybe Ashton will be there"
To Ashton
"Alright boys. Stay here until we call" said Otto as the things nodded while he and Ashton get out of the vaas they both walked right up to the entrance Ashton morphs to Venom
"Now to see the code" said Otto as Ashton punches the keyboard making the door open "….Subtle" as Venom shrugged
"Hey Karl look. I think we got the super villains again" said on employees
"Is it Wednesday already Benny?" Said another as the two of them watched the duo pass by while they drank coffee
"You know I'd thought there'd be more security" said Venom as they both notice how run down the place is as some employees began to move out the way while others couldn't care less
"OH MY GOD! A SUPERVILLAIN! And… Night Nonkey?" Said a security guard as he smashes a button "What!? Hey… this alarm button is made of cardboard" as the two guards them pull out their machine guns and started firing
Meanwhile
"Who are those two fellows in the New York Sector?" said a very old man
"I think that's one of your old Clients Otto and new vigilante Night Monkey sir. Should I activate security?" said his assistant
"Yes that would be nice" said the old old as he puts his fingers together as he watched a lot of hazmat guards with machine guns pour in. He then looks at different footage "And who is that lazy slob right there!?"
"That's Harold Sampson sir. He's your Nuclear watcher sir' said the assistant
"Sampson eh…" said the old man "….Wait a minute did you say vigilante?!"
To the plutonium place
"Hmmmm… something is wrong…" said Harold as he stops eating his donut for a moment to listen to the commotion before shrugging and continuing to eat happily as the commotion gets louder and he frowns and decides to check the cameras
"Let's see, let's see...Unsafe containment, check; Mitch's birthday party with left over cake, check; Workers without hazmat suits in an over radiated room, check; two scary super humans breaking into the plant, check; daycare room, check-Wait a minute!"
The man looks at the second monitor again, "There's still cake left?!" Quickly he places a cardboard cut-out of his boss in his seat before he leaves to the break room humming to himself while other employees are running in the opposite direction
He then enters the food lunchroom while oblivious to Otto and Venom were still fighting the security as he sees the last piece of cake
"Mmmmm cake" said Harold ad he grabbed the slice and proceeded to eat it
Venom and Otto were still throwing around all security that dared to try to stop them
Though for Venom he then grabbed one security. He feels a twitch as he felt compelled to open his mouth ready to chomp off his head
"NO PLEASE!" said the security as before he could chomp. One of of Otto's mechanical arms smacks Venom in the head
"Ow!" Said Venom
"You moron! Don't kill them. That'll arouse further suspicion from outside parties" said Otto
Venom shakes his head as he then tossed the guard aside before they both noticed Harold finishing the last of the cake then both stare at him awkwardly
"Uuuh…." Said Harold "You two the janitors?"
"Wh-no!" said Otto as all his tentacle arms got close to Harold showing their sharp blades at him "You will lead us to your plutonium reserve"
"Hmm…the boss said we'd be having inspectors coming sometime this week. I thought it'd be later but it must be now." Harold thought with a shrug. "Ok….." he said, "Follow me." Harold started to take the two to the plutonium reserve before he spotted a calendar on the wall with a date circled in red that said 'BIG INSPECTOR COMING' in bold red pen
"Wait a minute…this calendar says that the inspector doesn't come until Sunday…it's THURSDAY"Harold thought cupping his chin and continued thinking while Otto and Venom just continued to stare at him with confused expressions since the man had just been standing still for nearly three minutes.
"Also, inspectors have suits and are supposed to say that they are inspectors. These guys aren't wearing normal suits, they don't even have name tags!"Harold thought back to the cameras and he turned to stare at them, "Wait, there were TWO scary super powered people here, right? These guys aren't regular inspectors, they seem to have scary powers, one has robot arms"
FINALLY, after putting two and two together (kind of), Harold started taking a few steps back "Aaaaaaahhh!" he screamed out as he ran away while being pursued by the two of them as he makes it back to his room
"Cmon cmon cmon!" said Harold looking through his compartment "Shotgun? no. Rifle? Nah. Pistol? Meh.. aha!" said Harold as he pulls out a book and opens it to reveal a note to his confusion
"Dear Harold I owe you one emergency donut signed Harold " said Harold as he clenched the paper "D'OH! that bastard strikes again!"
The two then bust in.
"Uh oh" said Harold "Please don't hurt me! Take the plutonium over there please!"
"….that was easy" said Otto as he pulls out his phone "Hello? Yeah time to come over with the carriers… no no. One of you stay to get the van ready…. Ok good" as he hangs up
"Alright you buffoon. Unlock it then" said Venom.
"What the—Me?" Harold asked, "C'mon buddy, do I really look like someone who has access to the plutonium vault?"
Venom looked up to the vault, then back to Harold, then back to the vault before lifting Harold by his head and pointing at a sign that was by the vault.
'PLUTONIUM VAULT' it read, 'NO ACCESS GIVEN UNLESS BY THIS MAN' the picture below the words showed Harold, sitting at his desk eating his Emergency Donut.
"D'OH!" Harold yelled in defeat. And Venom drops him "D'OH!" and pointed at the vault codex and Harold then puts the code in
After several seconds, the vault was opened and Venom and Otto were greeted by several large holding tubes that held small tubes of plutonium in each
"Again, that was easy." Venom commented, "Well Doc, how do we get them in?"
"My arms are designed to handle hazardous material" said Otto as the thugs finally come in with a heavy metal box "Thankfully these tubes are safe to the human touch. However the rods inside will depend"
One of them nearly collapses from exhaustion
"Man that was so heavy"
"We brought the boxes sir" said the other thug as he notices Harold poking his head out of the desk "A witness!" pulling out his gun at Harold
"AH!" said Harold putting his hands up
"Leave him. One person dead will arouse too much suspicious from outside parties" said Otto as the thug reluctantly puts away his gun
"I'm just gonna.. go" said Harold slowly making his way to the door and when he reach it. He sprinted out
"Wouldn't we need some hazmat suits and stuff?" said Venom as Otto instinctively used one of his mechanical arms to grab the extra hazmat suits and dropping them on his arms "OK then" you guys hold them as he tosses them got he thugs
"Its better than carrying that thing" muttered the tired thug while the other thug began to open the metal box
"One of these tubes will be more than enough to power what you desire" said Otto using his mechanical arms to grab one
As he then cautiously puts the tube gently into the heavily soft padded metal before closing it. "Ashton. You carry it" as Venom reluctantly picks up the box
"So uh… should we be worried about the radiation?" said the thug
"As long as the mini rods inside the tube doesn't leak outside… the tube. We shouldn't have to worry" said Otto "Now let's head back"
To Silk
*zap*
Silk dodged another shock blast jumping from the ceiling to go for a punch.
"Ya damn web-head. Yer gonna splat" said Shocker shooting another electric shock at her
"Shocking" said Silk as she had a smug grin even though it's a corny line she narrowly dodged one last lightning strike as she webbed his weapon and yanked it out of his hands
"Aw DAMN IT!" said Shocker as he then tried to run before facing a back kick from Silk knocking him over and webs him down
"*sigh* that took longer than expected" thought Cindy as she quickly excited the bank when she heard the sirens as she then climbed to the to the top of the neighborhood building "I wonder where Ashton has been" as she then yawns before once again. Excusing him sleeping
Surely he's doing nothing tonight
To Ashton
Ashton, Drake, Otto, and Baron look at the opened plutonium box
"Just look at that. It's glorious" said Otto proudly
"How much longer will it take to make your machine?" said Drake
"Hmm….From my own designs and whatever others Osbourne has copied. It may take me not much longer now that we have the power for it" said Otto
"Oh boy oh boy. When can I get my rod?" said Baron
"You'll get it after we are done" said Otto as he then grabs a cup of tea and sips
"COFEE PLEASE!" said Venom excitedly poking out of Ashton making Baron roll his yes and go into the kitchen
"Venom! Calm down. Well get it soon" said Ashton
"Your friend is very excited" said Otto as he looks at his machine to begin to tinker with his experimental machine
Though the obvious still looms over his head as Baron returns with a few cups of coffee
"Yay!" Said Venom as Baron hands him the mug and Venom excitedly sticks himself in it and slumps the coffee
"I just hope this Otto is better suited for building than the Doc Ock we knew" thought Ashton as Venom then finished the coffee and looked at him smiling showing his coffee drenched teeth
"…what am I even supposed to do with you?" said Ashton nonchalantly as Venom chuckles before retracting into him
"Well you know what. And besides. This Doc Ock already is more competent on everything everything else I wouldn't worry" Thiught Venom
"….Mr. Drake?" said Ashton gaining g his attention "What exactly is your plan with Cletus?"
Drake then sips his tea as Riot then sticks out as a tendril
"Leave him to us. You just worry about your chores from here on" said Drake as Riot then began to lick the tea like a dog until there was none left
Ashton then looks at his unemployment mug with unease
"Something is bothering you boy" said Riot getting a little closer to him as Venom is growing at the back of his mind. Riot began to study him for a few moments "Is it something that will delay our machine?"
"N-No… it's something else…" said Ashton
"Mmmm…Well if it's any attachments here. I suggest you stop. It will distract from our future" said Riot
"…" said Ashton as he puts his coffee mug on the table and lays on the couch. The sentient teddy slowly approaches him. Venom then sticks out again very close to it
"Ooga booga!" said Venom scarring the bear away and chuckling to himself before retracting back into Ashton while Otto and Drake Continue their talks
The next morning
Cindy wakes up off her bed as she then tosses her costume to the side and checks her phone. And decided to send Ashton text for good measure
Morning Ash! Gotta go Ketchum all day – Cindy
"eh I'm sure he won't mind the pun" thought Cindy as she then grabs a snack to eat. Though something was off. But she then puts on the TV
*plop*
"What is this? Some sort of toy platypus? Strangely life like" said a man in a white lab coat as the 'toy platypus' punched him in the place
"Ow!" said the man "Its alive!?"
The platypus rolls its eyes and then puts on a fedora
"*GASP* PERRY THE PLATYPUS!?" said the man "…why didn't I see this coming with the unnamed package?... no matter" he then points to a machine
"You're too late my waffle theif-inator will steal all the waffles!" said the man as he then pulls out a laser gun "Now surrender!" and proceeds to shoot at the agile platypus while it dodges every shot
Cindy checks her phone again and saw that Ashton still hasn't responded before continuing to watch her show but she can't wait to hang out with him again. Maybe there will be a fun mystery to solve which gets her to be a but excited once she sees Ashton
To Ashton
Ashton was sitting on the couch with tired eyes as he looks over at Otto and Drake still tinkering with the device
"You guys have been on that forever" said Ashton to them both gaining their attention
"Patience Ashton. The sooner its done. The sooner we are able to get back" said Drake
"….if I was searching for a specific someone. Would I be able to find that person with it?" said Ashton referring to Peter
"I mean. It's not exactly a tracker… but if someone has found their way until this dimensional bridge place like we've been. You leave to be looking in the right place at the right time" said Drake "Now go do whatever. We shall be busy for more of the day" as Ashton gets off the cough to stretch and leave's Baron's residence
"Shit. Ok I don't even know if Peter is in another dimension or still there" thought Venom
"Do you think he's alright at this point?" though Ashton
"He has to be. Knowing how resourceful he is" thought Venom
"Well. There's that" thought Ashton as he then checks his phone and sees her pokemon pun "…why didn't I see this coming?"
"You can't be serious" thought Venom "Moron"
"Shut up asshole" thought Ashton while Venom chuckles in the back of head before dismissing it considering that the dimension device is almost finished. It still loomed in the back of his mind "….Better make the most of it"
"Agreed"
Ashton then morph to Venom swing away and landed on top of a coffee shop qnd he pulls out his phone again
"Now then… what to reply…" thought Ashton "….ask her about talking later?"
"NO NO! that's too soon" thought Venom "Your gonna put it on her radar. It must be at a time when she can't do much"
"Then why don't tell her?" thought Ashton
"Well to tell her that your leaving will make her want to keep tabs… then again. Anyone would"
"I can't just ghost her!" Thought Ashton
"That's not the idea. You need do tell her as if it just came up" thiught Venom "Unless you think inviting her is a good idea"
"…." Said Ashton "I don't even know…" he muttered
"No matter I'm sure we'll figure something out when they finish the machine" thought as his phone buzzed
Ashton? – Cindy
"Oh fuck I took too long!" Thought Ashton "Uhh…"
"I got this" Thought Venom as forced Ashton
Sorry it took to long. Woke up later than usual – Ashton
Well good morning~ How are you feeling? :) – Cindy
I feel fine. Want to meet at the Starbucks nearby the park? – Ashton
"VENOM!" thought Ashton taken aback
"I got you somewhere. Now take it from there" thought Venom
I would love too! I can't wait to see enough and Goopy today! :P – Cindy
"I think it's stuck with you" thought Ashton with a slight smugness to it
"Shut up!" thought Venom immaturely
I'll be over shortly – Cindy
"Well then...now we wait" thought Ashton as a few moments longer they could vaguely see Cindy walking closer and closer from afar. Ashton then inconspicuously gets to the ground to wait outside
"Hey Ash!~" said Cindy excited to see him
"You ready?" said Ashton instinctively
"You know it" said Cindy as they both entered the coffee shop to get in line high was surprisingly short
"Got any plans for the day?" said Ashton
"Hmmm…. Just the usual" said Cindy "What about you" making Ashton contain a slight nervousness
"We will see what happens" instructed Venom
"Well I think we will see what happens" said Ashton as they both eventually got to the front and made their orders qnd they both found a seat "You have a good rest?"
"Well. At first I went out and seen some guy" said Cindy "It was 'shocking' if you can believe it"
"…damn" said Ashton knowing what she meant "I tale you beat him up real good?"
"Yeah" said Cindy with "I know you were probably sleeping. As it was super late at night. But I'm just saying it would be been more fun with you around"
"Well. I'll make sure to stop by if an event like that happens. Assuming I'm aware of it of course" said Ashton "What about tonight?" Ashton saying the latter instinctively as he realized what he just said
"fuck" 5hought Ashton
"Fuck" thought Venom "Now you're gonna need an excuse later you bonehead"
"If something happens tonight. I'll let you know" said Cindy as the barista puts their coffee and chocolate bars on the table
"And I will totally do the normal thing. And put the chocolate bar in my sleeve" said Ashton as he unwraps his chocolate bar and pushes it into his sleeve
Cindy very well knew he was feeding Venom. But the way he said it made it sound so absurd it made her hold a laugh in
"I'm sure some goopy thing would enjoy it" said Cindy "Is goop sleeve going to have another?" as she tried to hold in another laugh
"OH WHY!?"
"Relax Venom. You'll be ok" thought Ashton as he slips the other chocolate bar in his sleeve. Cindy could hear a slight audible munching noise from his sleeve for a few seconds as he brings his coffee much closer to his hoodie Venom pokes out as a tiny tendril and sticks his head in the mocha
"So then. How's your coffee?" said Ashton
"Pretty good. And since today will be the usual. Care to join me again?" Said Cindy taking another sio of her coffee
"That would be awesome" said Ashton
"Sweet. Ready to head out?" said Cindy as they both got up and left they both changed into their costumes and started swinging
"When you mentioned your shocking fight. How'd it go?" said Venom qs they both stuck to one tall building
"Honestly it wasn't hard all I had to do is deal with his machine" said Silk
"Well damn" said Venom "I bet he was… shocked… to lose" as Cindy chuckled at the pun as they both began to crawl up towards the roof
Venom felt his phone and pulled it out. He was stunned
Ashton this is Otto. Drake had gone off to see Cletus. From what I understand. If you don't help him we are all doomed – Baron
Venom now felt even more nervousness loom over him
"…." Said Venom he looks at Silk has her senses going off as she suddenly had a very serious expression
"Follow me" said Silk urgently as she then swings a certain direction as Venom followed. He felt nervous. Did she sense both Cletus and Drake!? He if so he didn't want to let her get in the way
He sincerely hoped it would be anything but that
"Fuck uhm.. what excuse is there…" thought Venom as he swung catching up with Cindy as he notices they are heading close to where the Baron's residence making him internally panic
"Not good not good not good not good" thought Venom as he he tried to swing faster then her. Something was wrong g with he gravity as of course many people where running in the opposite direction but many of the everyday items began to float
"No… he finished it already!? AND HES STARTING IT!?... NOW!?" thought Venom as he luckily managed to pass Silk and quickly head over to where it source is to see Otto menacing staring at the machine
"OTTO!" said Venom gaining his attention
"Ah Venom I see you are here" said Otto
"WHY ARE YOU STARTING IT NOW!?" said Venom
"Drake said so otherwise Cletus would chomp my head off" said Otto
"Holy sh-"
"You better stop that!" yelled Silk at Otto as she used her webs to launch herself toward him
"!?" said Otto as he used his mechanical arm to block that punch and throw her off
"Venom help me out!" said Silk as she looked at the device as Otto Instinctively got in s a defense stance and unsheaths two blades from two of his tentacles
"Venom keep your girlfriend in check before she ruins this!" said Otto as his his tentacle arms went straight at Silk as she dodged them both
Venom felt frozen. Between her and his goal
Silk then webbed Otto's arms onto the ground as she got close enough before performing a sky kick straight to the face, nearly knocking off his glasses.
The device then began to slightly crack the ground making Venom internally panic even more.
"VENOM! FOCUS!" yelled Silk as she punched Otto twice in the chest and she webbed him down followed by shooting a web at the device. Only to be intercepted by Venom's
"Venom what are you doing!?"
"Silk… I'm sorry. I can t let you do this" said Venom as he reluctantly got in a defensive stance
"Venom now's not the time for playing jokes. We need to defuse that thing" said Silk getting closer only for Venom to stand in her way
"Ashton?" said Silk very worriedly as Ashton felt a slight twitch in his face as she slowly reached out her hand to his face
Venom twitched a little more before showing his teeth
"raah!" said Venom showing his terrifying face before restraining himself back to a normal looking mask turning away from her "….I am very sorry…"
"Well we can talk about this in a bit that thing is going to cause damage to the city!" Said Silk
"Cindy listen to me! I need this!" said Venom continually standing in her way
"What could you possibly need that doomsday device for!?" said Silk
"I NEED IT TO FIND MY FRIEND!" said Venom stunning her
"…Venom. I'm sorry. But I can't let that thing danger the city" said Silk unaware Otto's mechanical arms were wriggling free from her webs
Before they both could do anything more. They heard a familiar roar as Silk had her sense go off again. Venom knew exactly who that was.
"SILK GET DOWN!" said Venom as many red spikes began to shoots out at her and Ashton. Luckily for Otto his mechanical arms protected him from them
"Oh no…" said Otto as the gravity of the dimension device got stronger
"Well it's good to see Eddie's boy again! Hhahahahah!" yelled Carnage. Upon seeing him remembering the damage he caused and nearly killing her and Ashton. She felt a bit of fear crawl into her mind
Before Carnage could do anything. He then gets hit by a silver mace coming from Riot
"I see you've been causing real trouble, CARNAGE" said Riot as his hands turned into blades
"Who's that?" said Silk while Carnage sharpens his claws in retaliation
"Riot… he's on my side" said Venom as he got in a defensive position as they both watched Riot and Carnage slice each other like no tomorrow as he felt a feral instinctively when he sees Carnage and dashes over
"…the machine!" said Otto as he notices it's becoming increasingly unstable as he tried to get closer to the machine but it seemed to have an atmospheric pressure pushing him away as he used his arms to keep him in check
Before Carnage could slash Riot's face. Venom then used his webs to launch himself before extending his claws to slash Carnage in the back, knocking him off Riot. Venom then bulks up and let's out a roar. "Isn't this funny, Carnage?" Venom asked, "We have a generational dispute. Me, your father, always upset with you, my spawn. And I've had not one, but TWO Brocks that have been my host to get rid of you!" Venom let out an almost sinister laugh before flicking his tongue around his face.
"Thanks Brock" said Riot as Venom's arm forms a shield to block several of Carnage' tendrils and runs his way over.
"Daddy's always such a wet blanket!" Carnage taunted as his tendrils began to split Venom's arms apart, "Heeeeeere's CARNY!"
Venom growls and breaks free of the attack before he is impaled by several of Carnage's tendrils. He then used his expert dodge to his advantage and punishes Carnage's attack by lunging at him to put his claw hand on Carnage's face pulling him down as the gravity then suddenly got stronger making them both fall down hard, both clinging to the floor with their claws so they didn't get sucked in.
Carnage then bit Venom's hand.
"RAAA! You red-faced, bastard!" yelled Venom as he slashed Carnage's face and punched him into an unnamed car, "HAHA! KARMA!"
Silk was about to assist Venom but she then sees a silvery hand stop her, "No… let me try something first." said Riot as Silk reluctantly obliges and watches as Riot dug his hands through the ground and extended underground up to where Carnage and Venom was the spread out of the ground to restrain Carnage for a moment giving Venom a moment to web Carnage's face.
"Finally, some god damned assistance! Why are all you younger symbiotes so damn slow to help?!" Venom fired a webline and swung himself closer to carnage, performing a swing kick to bring Carnage up into the air. Venom then continued his arial raid by sending slashes left and right, his arm turning to extending tendrils slapping Carnage away before bringing him closer with another webline and cherry bombing the red menace into the ground. "Now, Ashton, before you freak out, I'm going to do something I haven't done in a few years, so bear with me here."
"I have no issue with that." Ashton thought.
Venom grinned and shot both arms forward, his face melding into them and forming a giant mouth that grabbed hold of Carnage and slammed him back and forth on the ground before taking a big chomp and tossing him. He then followed up by jumping up in the air, turning into a liquid form with a giant mouth and slammed him into the ground before becoming regular form again, grabbing Carnage by his legs and Bautista bombing him. Carnage, wanting some space to recover, rolled back and let out an annoyed growl. "That…was not…NICE!"
Meanwhile, while the symbiotes continued to duke it out, Otto managed to get closer to the device as the atmosphere pressure changed again.
Riot then took the chance to get closer to Carnage once again morphing his hands into swords and dashed to Carnage and slashed at him, "Grit 'yer teeth, freak!"
Carnage, did in fact, grit his teeth as he formed an axe on his left hand and swung up to block the swords. "'Freak' you say? I haven't even gotten freaky yet!" he laughed maniacally.
"Full Nelson!" Venom yelled out as he wrapped his arms underneath Carnage's and locked his hands behind the symbiote's head. The clinch through off Carnage's attack and he broke from of his clash from Riot. "Riot, now! While he's clinched, stab through him. Oh, OH, wait, tell me when you're about to do it so I can roll out of the way. Because…if you stab me…I will be severely pissed off."
"NOW!" Riot shouted as he was already shooting both his hands forward.
"Oh, shit!" Venom quickly rolled out of the way, but his leg was grabbed by one of Carnage's arms as he was stabbed twice through the chest.
"You won't avoid me that easily, daddy. Come on, let's sit down and chat!" Carnage shouted as he tossed Venom against a pillar before tossing him away, while he continued to focus on Riot.
Silk then notices Otto about to touch the device. She didn't trust what he was going to do and webbed him.
"No wait! I need to stabilize this!" said Otto.
Before Silk could respond. Venom violently thrown at the device making it malfunction
"Ah shit" said Riot as everyone else looked at what happened in shock.
*boom*
Silk could hear lots of commotion and yelling between Venom, Riot, and Carnage
She opens her eyes to see she is on floating debris. And she sees that she's not in New York anymore she looks where the commotion is to see Riot and Venom desperately fighting Carnage as she watched Venom crash through a floating soviet Statue
She was about to help. But she notices Otto dusting himself off. Even though she would've been more worried about Ashton. He seemed to have a silver friend to help him which put her slightly at ease
"You!" said Silk angrily as she launched herself at Otto as she then gets caught in his mechanical arm "Ack!"
"I'm sorry miss. But I am not interesting in fighting you with those things around" said Otto as he watched her struggle to break free "I'll tell you what. There's a big bell over there. Ring it and you can save your boyfriend"
Silk wasn't sure what to think. But she also wanted to help Venom but she wasn't sure Otto could be trusted and the mechanical arms loosened their grab on her
"How do I know you can be trusted?" said Silk
"You don't" said Otto "But it's either the bell or your boyfriend's suffering"
"I…" said Silk as Riot and Venom desperately trying to keep Carnage at bay before they both nearly get impaled by his tendrils
She the chooses to help Venom
"After this we are going home" thought Silk "Here goes nothing" as she jumped from place to place amongst the floating debris as she watched the three fighting symbiotes cause one building to collide causing more debris to fly around
Giving her a better chance of reaching the bell. Once she got close enough. She then webs multiple places and the bell and rigs them to be pulled
She turns around to Riot is thrown aside and Venom is starting to lose his ground and is stabbed by one of Carnage's tendrils
She then took this time to web Carnage's face and then webs the wall to make is collapse on him
"YOU PATHETIC FOOL!" said Carnage ripping the webbing off his face while Silk yanks her rigged webbing
"Hey, you want to see something cool?" said Silk to Carnage stopping him rom killing Venom
"Silk no!" yelled Riot as before he and Venom can stop the big bell
"!" said Venom
"?" said Carnage as the three symbiotes looked shocked
"Not agai-" thought Venom
*Ring*
"RAAAAAAAHHHH!" screamed Venom, Carnage, and Riot making the three of them look unstable. But it gave way for Venom to get away further. Thankfully for Riot being farther. Wasn't as effected as the other two
But Silk also realizes she's also hurting Venom and Riot
*Ring*
"THE RINGIN-AAAAAAAHHH!" yelled Carnaged as Venom whilst in pain made his way further from him
"TAKE THIS!" yelled Riot as he lunged straight toward at Carnage making them broth crash through further debris farther away crashing through a collapsed building while Venom is on his knees panting really hard
Otto watches the entire situation with ominous interest.
"Ashton!" said Silk as she tried making her way toward him.
"Cindy I'm sorry!" yelled Venom as he un-moprhs to hide from the further vibration of the bell
Before she could reach him, Carnage and Riot crashed through the debris that Ashton is on sending him flying as the dimensions seemingly starts to be unstable where she and Ashton are. "ASHTON!" yelled Silk desperately trying to reach him.
"CINDY!" yelled Ashton reaching out his arm toward her as then. Ashton lost his vision
Everything was black and much quieter
"Cindy?... Cindy!?" said Ashton aloud "….fuck…. Where am I this time?"
To be continued….
