This is... strange.

I have lived many thousands of years, and seen a lot through the hive, however this was not common in human bonding, or at the very least, in creatures that had similar genetic makeups to that of Earth's Homo sapiens.

It doesn't seem to be often that this sort of pair has a bond that cannot be broken.

I would assume this means that our symbiosis is far too perfect; I have essentially become a part of Steph.

It's as if I fill a part of her system that was missing; a spot that needed to be filled all along, and I was just perfect for it.

I grip the traitor by his thick, black neck, squeezing seated claws deeper and deeper into his inky flesh. He's obviously not intimidated by the pain I'm inflicting, but my words cut him deeper than the small blades cutting deep into his throat.

He knows that I can detatch him from his host, and for some reason that we both have yet to pinpoint, he cannot separate me and mine.

I grin an evil smile, liking how they look in the reflection of his pale, fearful eyes.

I release him from my grasp and step back, allowing myself to seep back into my host.

He stares and watches as she returns, smiling worryingly back up at him. He won't hurt you. Now that he sees that he can't separate us, there's no point in trying. He's stuck with me here, and he's going to have to accept that.

"Sorry, she's got a bit of a temper right now... I haven't known her long enough to say that she's not usually like this, but I'm sure this mood will pass," she says.

What a little asshole, trying to mediate the situation. I don't want them to be soothed; they should fear me and the things that I can accomplish. However it's far too much effort to express such things to her, so instead I just growl in a mildly uninteresting tone, and decide to instead allow her to do the talking. Humans are oddly unpredictable.

"Well then, I have a message for her," he says, lifting up his hand in a fist gesture. When I'm confused, he moved his other hand in a cranking motion, and begins to slowly lift up his middle finger.

He's flipping me off.

Stephanie begins to chuckle at his display, and in response, I mutter something along the lines of 'suck my massive horse cock, maybe it'll help you grow one' and Steph loses it, bending over in laughter.

Boy, humans have an exceptionally annoying and ugly laugh.

"What'd she say?" The traitor asks.

"For your dignity and mine, I'd rather not say."

The only rational thing Venom can do is to let me and Hazard free, unharmed. He must really care about his host to allow us to escape. Or maybe, they just have a really good bond that he doesn't want to get rid of.

As I step out the door and into the dark night, the lights of the city a little ways away. Venom follows suit, however when I turn around to look back at  him, I don't see the hulking creature I've been staring at for the past half hour. Instead, a man, in his mid to late 30s, is walking behind me.
