Summary/disclaimer: Time for another chapter of Venom Petals. Enjoy the 2500-word chapter. I do not own RWBY or Spidey, Monty Oum, Marvel, and a few others do.
"HYSTERIC!" Ruby screamed to which the superpowered warrior blinked.
"I like her," Hysteric stated to which Elec shushed her. "Um… Yes, a citizen of Vale? Can I help you on this fine day?" Hysteric asked.
"Uh, hi, my name is Ruby Rose, I live here… I watched you fight those guys on TV." Ruby stated as Hysteric hummed.
"Uh… Well, it is nice to have a fan." Elec said as he paused to try and think of what was growing for now.
They had a lot of different things when it came crashing down to it for now as he paused it for now.
Hysteric snickered. He knew this girl. It was a person who was in the same school that Elec was going to.
It would be VERY amusing for now, too much had been going on for Hysteric not to pass it up.
"You are that scythe girl," Hysteric stated to which Elec winced, cursing mentally.
'What the hell, Hysteric!? You want her to know who we are!?' Elec asked mentally before he winced once more. He seemed to try and grasp it.
Hysteric seemed to be eager and figure it out, he smirked as of now… Something about it all seemed to be too tired once more.
Ruby looked to the side; she looked like a giant grenade that had gone off like a bomb. She seemed to grasp onto something more than before when it was all over.
"Uh… Are you ok?" Hysteric asked to which Ruby began to go off like a bomb.
Hysteric was greeted by a shriek which almost qualified by a sonic weapon. She looked ready to explode into a giant burst of red which bothered him.
Yes, it did and Elec was kicking Hysteric for it as he realized they had entirely made things worse.
'Way to go, genius. Now she knows we have some clue who she is!' Hysteric heard Elec mentally screech.
He was annoyed. Very annoyed but he could not think of what was growing on his mind, they had been too interested in being a hero career. They had a LOT of different ideas.
They had to make this right, they had to end it before something HORRID happened and he was just left there… Left holding the bag.
He of all people was tired, he of all Hunters was thrown off. Yes, it seemed at the end of the day. He had a LOT more to see and do, a LOT of different things at the end of the day, something he would not have allowed himself to do if he was in any other situation.
He had to fix this and fix it damn well right now.
That? And making sure such things were done now would have to be enough. He was… Oddly satisfied with it all at the end of the day, all of it had to be salvaged.
Ruby leaped up and down like she was a frog made of springs. It highly amused Hysteric and made him want to laugh more and more only for Elec to mentally scold him, knowing that even the simplest idea someone knew who they were could and would cause problems if it was leaked out.
Still? He found it… Semi amusing, if only because these sorts of things were pushing him into being better and it was clear from all of it just how well it would work out now and for good.
Such a thing was odd but it was not going to break him. No, if anything? All it did was push Elec into wanting to help MORE to deal with and more to relax as he paused to think it for now as he clicked his fingers.
"Uh, you carry on, Ms. Rose. We must protect the city… And protect innocent people such as you from danger." Hysteric stated before he sighed.
He did not even know as he thought of it now and for good…. Something about it all seemed to make him more and more damn uneasy when it was all decided. All this simply made him want to scream now and for a good reason.
He sighed before he looked to the side, his eyes hidden behind the symbiotic creature on his face before he looked to the side as he wished to think of when it was all said and done.
Before Ruby could say something, Hysteric leaped away, launching a symbiotic tendril as he swung down the street before he leaped off a building.
Hysteric hummed. He seemed to think once more before he snapped his fingers, smirking to himself before he looked to the side, far too amused now when it came down the line.
He of all people seemed to be tired now and for good reason, well. It had to be handled and handled properly, broken, and pieced back together to the end.
Ruby watched as she paused to think of it when it came down to it as she clicked her fingers once more.
She watched him leave with a GIANT smirk before she thought of it NOW when it. Ruby thought of it all now when she looked at her friend before she smirked. She wanted to see him again already, too much had been done to try and figure it out now, and for good reason.
Ruby seemed to be jumping around before she looked downwards at the ground, something seemed to be done when it came to a head before she thought of it now, and for good reason.
She thought of her next idea, something which seemed to be done with it as she wished to think of it when all of it was said and done.
Hysteric hummed before he seemed to think of it all. Hysteric seemed to think of it all being thrown off as he thought of it was going.
Hysteric seemed to be thinking of what was going on before he looked to the side.
He was all too much thrown off as he clicked his fingers, the blob of ooze was eager to get to relax for now.
Hysteric was eager to smile, looking at Elec as the boy sighed, thinking for the moment… And he was able to get through to him.
"You like the rose girl, DON'T you?" Hysteric seemed to get his attention as the Symbiote watched the boy snort, annoyed more than anything.
He sighed to himself before he thought of his next move. Elec did not even once consider it all at the time being, an idea which Elec knew Hysteric would balk at.
The symbiote enjoyed violence and chaos more than he did being good… Granted, he had rules on being good, but he did not have much in the way of scruples.
Which Elec had tried his best to contain. It had been something that the Symbiote, ball of goo that he was had found more mirth in being silly and odd than in being a hero.
Granted? He was also insane but one trying to help.
"I am interested if she knows something… Why? Am I supposed to forget the fact that you like to eat people?" Hysteric heard as he sighed and then thought of himself.
He was able to think of it all, he had been eager to think of it all when it was all over.
He was interested in if she knew. Ruby was a lot of things but she was not stupid, she had never been stupid when it came to brains, she was only limited by what she was able to learn.
Granted finally? He knew little about Ruby besides her intelligence was something to fear. She was also skilled at combat, skilled enough even to give Hysteric a damn fight.
Not that the Symbiote would admit it, but he was always willing to act like he was superior in combat, even outmatched… Yes, he knew damn well Hysteric was prideful for a symbiote, Elec was odd like that.
Still? it had given him something to do, very much something to do in the face of having nothing but spare time upon his hands… Yes, it seemed as if he held all the cards.
If anything? The ideals? The naked fear? He had been able to see that Hysteric was more than the simple Symbiote professed to be.
The problem was Hysteric liked to pretend he was not, that any display of mirth or even then he tried something else which made certain that he had been able to relax.
He held onto that idea even as he went descending helplessly into the void where he lost all ability to do ANYTHING beyond scream, anything at all.
Now? Now, there had been something about it all. Elec sighed as the Symbiote covered him fully once more.
"You enjoy the mystery more than anything else… There is more to this than before… We have bigger plans than this… Something about it all was much harder to deal with for now." Eric stated before he sighed and then looked to the side.
Something about it all had been done now, an idea of it all had been amusing to the symbiote who chuckled like its namesake all up and down. Eric groaned as he realized how stupid it was for him to be dealing with this now… Something about it all was annoying.
He sighed, all too exhausted… All too bored at the end of it all the way done as if he had been thrown into the wringer, all of it had been for nothing, not a fate he willingly shared.
He knew about it all had made him curious… He had plenty of problems to deal with for now, an idea he had to figure out now and for good reason.
He knew about Hysteric being odd. Granted? Something about his symbiote rarely surprised him… But he still intended to see this through to the end, it was all too much now.
He sighed, looking at Hysteric, he smirked, interested now at the time being. All of it was odd now, an idea which cut through his mouth as he sighed to himself.
He hummed, thinking for now. Eric knew Hysteric was trying to amuse, for now, something about this all was amusing for now… An idea had popped into his mind.
"You tired? Because we have work to do." hysteric heard as he snorted, the symbiote snorted.
Hysteric smirked mentally, he had so many ideas now, and for good reason… This was something harder and harder and harder to stomach.
Still? The symbiote was too interested in violence, chaotic at the time being, an idea for now… An idea like this needed to be done and dusted now… All of it was much harder to deal with.
The symbiote latched a tendril onto a skyscraper down the street… Well, a small shop but this house seemed as much a thing as always.
It was worth the amusement the boy held on his mind now, Eric was all too amused now to see it come to an end.
He liked the kid but he would not admit it now. Something about it all had made him smirk now, an idea which he did not know what to say about, what to do.
If they were both separated? It was clear without a shadow of a doubt… That something would have broken, something about it all was too much now. Now? They are rather exciting at the time being.
Hysteric would never admit he missed the kid, never once would he admit it… But part of him would rather tear someone down molecule by molecule than allow them to hurt the kid and remove him.
Hysteric seemed to be thinking of it all before he looked to the side…He had been too relaxed before he thought of what to say and do.
He sighed to himself, all too amused now… Now? He had to relax, not relent for a moment… Because he knew he had to think of it all before he thought of himself.
If there was anything that would make Elec sigh? It was knowing that he had plenty of work left to deal with and something was off about it all.
Granted? He had his idea as to how that girl and Elec were but he kept his ideas to himself.
It was more amusing to push him to admit it anyway… The idea of them being different was amusing… Very amusing now. It felt more and more like an issue they were active in.
Something within them all had been harder… Something which had been harder and harder to try and figure out as he thought of it all now.
They had a lot more to try and understand… Ruby seemed to be dealt with for now as he clicked his tongue.
Both were too interested in it all before now…. He looked at the Symbiote as he fell quiet, too fascinated at the time being.
"What do you think we do now?" Elec asked before he sighed, looking downwards at the ground.
Something within his mind was distracted. He had been too easy to try and figure it all out. He had been too disturbed by it.
"We have work to deal with… Very little of us realize what is going on… We have more to deal with now than usual… Something in my brain is going crazy." He stated to himself.
Elec seemed quiet, more than usual… Now? Now he was tired… He had no idea what was being done within his mind… He knew only that such work was harder to deal with now than before.
Granted? He was no stranger to such things… But he was a stranger to how it had been and would be.
He did not at all say much as he looked over at Hysteric… Both were quiet and both acted in a certain manner.
"Got a plan?" Elec asked before Hysteric shrugged.
"No… Let us go home… Then we talk, here is where people can see." Elec stated before he sighed to himself.
Something within his brain told him very much they would be not yet done with their enemies… And something told Hysteric they were not yet done with the scythe woman.
However, part of him questioned where he had seen her eyes before.
Author Notes
Phew. Another chapter is done! I want to point out that the next chapter will be delayed. A few things.
To the one long-winded review? I intend to make the symbiote related to the Grimm.
I might add other symbiotes and such… I do plan for Ruby to get one eventually.
Ozpin knows about the symbiotes and Hysteric knows about Ozpin… So do certain other figures.
The next chapter will be in 2-10 months, be 900-6500 words, and will show more and more of Hysteric and Elec at Beacon, set up Ruby meeting Elec, and a fight against a RWBY villain. Until then, Lighting Wolf is out!
