One Month Ago:
It was late at night, and a large crater sat in the Nevada desert far from the city. In that crater, a large meteor sat, still smoking. Normally, you wouldn't expect someone to notice, as it was 1 in the morning and no one would be in the desert, 5 miles from the closest city... except one person. One of the people that sees the local school as a front against nature. He saw a goo like creature come out of it, the guy looked at it... before it lunged at him.
Present:
A group of girls were in the desert just outside of Death City, excited to get to training.
"Oh, this'll be fun!" Skara said.
"Yeah, I look forward to beating your ass... again." Boscha said, "Right, Mel?"
"Yeah, they are pretty easy to take in a fight." Amelia said.
"Hey, that's not true!" Cat said, "We're near the top of the class!"
"Right under me and Mel!" Boscha said, "Now come on, I've been itching for a fight."
Boscha held Amelia's hand and Amelia began to glow. She quickly changed in an 1832 model foot artillery sword, with a green wrapped handle and green sheath. Boscha pulled Amelia out of her sheath and got ready for a fight.
"Cat, let's show them who's boss." Skara said.
Cat smiled and jumped in the air, glowing just like Amelia. Cat caught a metal bow staff with sharp pointed tips. Boscha and Skara charged at each other. Skara spun her bow staff and swung at Boscha, only for Boscha to block it with her sword.
"Sorry, but a thin metal pole isn't going to do much against us." Boscha said, "Hey, Cat, maybe eat a sandwich sometime."
'... Skara, we're killing her!' Cat said, but only Skara could hear her.
"Calm down, Cat. Boscha and her outdated sword aren't going to do anything against us."
'OUTDATED!?' Amelia shouted.
"Oh great." Boscha said, "Now I have to listen to this for the next week."
"Oh well." Skara said, with a smirk.
Skara, being well versed in Martial Arts, raised her leg and delivered a strong front kick to Boscha's chin, making her spit up blood as she was knocked down.
"Oops." Skara said, smiling widely, "Did I do that?"
Boscha got herself into a kneeling position, planting Amelia's blade into the ground to rest against. Boscha smirked.
"Yeah... but you won't do it again." Boscha said, "Ready, Mel?"
'Yeah, let's do it!' Amelia said.
Boscha held Amelia in front of her, her blade pointing towards the sky.
'Are they doing what I think they're doing?'
"Yeah, I think they are." Skara said.
'But... they've never done that before!'
"Let's go, Soul Resonance!" They screamed.
The two began to bond their souls... but it was stopped when a large beast, made of what looked like a black goo, crashed between the two groups. Skara and Boscha were knocked back from this and looked at the... creature.
"What the fuck is that thing?!" Boscha yelled.
"Is it... a Kishin?"
'Doesn't look like any Kishin I've seen.' Cat said.
The creature roared at them, making the four realize that this thing was looking for a fight... And who were they to deny that request? The two charged at him and got ready to attack. Boscha jumped and swung her sword at the creature, only for him to grab her mid-air and throw her into a tree. Skara tried not to dwell on Boscha, knowing that if she took her eyes off him for a minute, she has the chance of dying. She swung her staff at him, which he blocked, before she spun it and thrusted it at him. The sharp metal spiked edge impaled the attacker... but it didn't phase him. He grabbed Skara, the goo spreading around Skara, and lifted her into the air. He then reached up and pulled Cat out, before tossing her to the side. He smiled widely, showing off teeth that were sharp enough to cut steel. He opened his mouth and lowered Skara's head into it. He attempted to close it, but Skara put her arms out and used whatever strength she had to stop him from closing it. It gave enough time for Boscha to get up and run at him, before jumping up and using Amelia to cut the arm off.
"Ragghhh!" He yelped.
Skara then smirked and forced her self up, before standing on his lips and back flipping off. She landed on her feet and delivered a spinning heel kick to him, knocking him back. Skara then cartwheeled away towards Cat. Skara picked her up and got into a stance with her.
"You good, Cat?"
'A little dizzy, but ready to kick ass.' Cat said.
"Good."
Skara ran at the monster, who Boscha was striking with her sword. He grabbed her by the neck and slammed her on the ground. He roared at her and tried to bit down on her, but all he got was a taste of metal. Skara was holding Cat out as he bit on her, before forcing him away. Boscha fell to the ground and Skara helped her up.
"Thanks." Boscha said, picking up Amelia, "Shall we end this?"
"Thought you'd never ask."
The two started moving towards the beast, Boscha twirling Amelia, while Skara was spinning Cat.
"You really think you can stop me?" The beast asked.
"Yeah, we do." Boscha said, "We've killed and gathered the souls of dozens of kishin, you will just be another in the long list of beings we've killed."
"And we'll make sure to enjoy this." Skara said.
The two charged at the beast, as he roared and charged at them. Skara and Boscha lunged at him, sending the sharp points of their weapons at him, only for him to surprise them and release several tendrils from his body that knocked them back. With them distracted he charged and grabbed Skara by the neck, before slamming her down, spine first, on a rock... completely snapping her spine.
"AHHHHHHH!"
Skara couldn't feel her legs and could barely talk with all the pain she felt. The beast stood above her and its arm sharpened into a blade.
"This is for the greater good." He said, raising his arm.
Skara closed her eyes, waiting for the final blow to come... only it never did. She felt something wet hit her face and she opened her eyes... Cat had turned back and jumped in front of her to take the strike... she was stabbed right in the chest, right through her heart. The beast pulled his arm back, making Cat fall backwards over Skara.
"C-C-CAT!"
Skara felt tears come to her eyes, watching her weapon/best friend lay lifeless over her. Her eyes were dull and blood rolled out from her mouth... she was gone. On the other side of the makeshift battle field, Boscha tightened her grip on Amelia's handle. She charged with a war cry, enraged at what she just watched. She jumped up and cut the arm of the beast off, making it roar in pain. She then did a spinning sole kick and knocked it back.
"You will pay for that!" Boscha screamed, lunging again.
The beast regrew its arm and swung at her. Boscha dodged and stabbed him in the side, dragging Amelia across his side and to his back. She then started to stab him multiple times... it did nothing. He turned around and grabbed Boscha by the neck, making her drop Amelia. Amelia turned back and tried to help Boscha, but was back handed and her head slammed against a large tree branch hard enough to break the branch. Amelia landed on the ground with a thud... she wasn't moving. The beast held Boscha up and smiled evilly at her.
"W-w-what... are... you?" Boscha said, her skin turning blue from lack of oxygen.
The beast pulled her close.
"We... are... Venom."
Venom opened his mouth, ready to bite her head off... only to be hit and knocked away. Boscha landed on the ground, hard, and looked up.
"... Lord Death?"
Lord Death, the Grim Reaper himself, stood there, holding one of the most dangerous weapons in the world... a Death Scythe.
"Hello, Boscha, I came as soon as I heard you were in trouble." Lord Death said, "Sadly it looks like I'm a little late."
The Death Scythe was mad.
'Let's make him pay! How dare this... thing... hurt my daughter and her friends!' Elizabeth said.
"I couldn't agree more." Lord Death said.
Lord Death moved towards Venom, while Boscha dragged herself towards Amelia, who was not waking up. Boscha put an arm over her... and then passed out. Venom knew he had no chance against Death while wielding a death scythe, and the best move was to retreat. He jumped high into the air, away from the fight, there were plenty of freaks like those girls that he can kill all over the world. He landed in an alleyway.
"Where to go next?" He said, before noticing a trashcan with a newspaper in it.
Venom looked at the paper and smiled. On the paper was a person in a full body suit, holding someone while the other hand was grabbing a web. The headline was "Who is the Spider-Girl?"
"Perfect." Venom said, "We're going to New York City."
