The two fighting throwing fist after fist smashing each other's face, but both still seeming to be strong not losing any stamina. Carnage talking to Max mentally on a plan to kill Riot, the two agreeing and ready for action.
Carnage gets hit in the face falling backward on his back then sinking away back into Max's skin almost hiding. Max looking at Riot.
"Wait!"
"HAVE YOU DECIDED TO GIVE UP, YOU ARE NO MATCH FOR ME CARNAGE"
"Yes we have quit, Carnage isn't as strong as you."
"YOU HAVE BEEN A BRAVE HOST KID SADLY YOUR TIME ALONG WITH HIS IS OVER"
Riot forms a blade striking Max in the chest then pulling the blade out forming back into Riot's hand. Max laying there.
"YOU SAID IT YOURSELF, CARNAGE ISN'T AS STRONG AS I AM"
"No... he's not, he's stronger!"
The cut heals closing and going back to normal. Max standing back up flipping forming a giant ball out of his hand smacking Riot sending him flying toward the tin cans. Carnage speaking to Max, "YOU HAVE ONE SHOT DO NOT MISS"
"This is just like swinging all about aim and accuracy."
Max takes a deep breath all this almost happening in slow motion. Thrusting his arm forward a spike of red shooting forward like the tip of a spear. Flying toward the cans sparking and igniting them causing a massive explosion to occur. The waves of fire felt from where max is standing. All you hear are the roses of Riot.
"DAMN YOU CARNAGE YOU... TRAITOR!"
Silence takes its toll.
"Did we kill him?"
"...YES I CAN'T SENSE HIM, WE HAVE DONE IT"

Max collapses on the ground taking deep breathes.
"WHAT ARE YOU DOING YOU AREN'T TIRED?"
"Yeah I know but I'm still trying to comprehend how we technically saved the world."
"I GUESS YOUR RIGHT, WE DID, FEEL PRIDE IN YOURSELF"

Thursday night. The two sitting in the edge of a huge building. The night sky clear as can be, stars shining bright.
"Hey Carnage."
"YES"
"I think we still have a problem on our hands."
"WHAT'S THAT?"
"How are you gonna get home? I mean you could make up a lie and be back to your normal life right?"
"YOU WANT ME TO LEAVE?"
"No it's not that, I would love for you to stay we are great together , you've become a good friend of mine Carnage. But I also find it fair if you get what you want."
"IN MY PLANET I AM AS INVISIBLE AS YOU ARE HERE. BUT HERE WE CAN BE MUCH MORE, I LIKE IT HERE, THE TASTY SNACKS AND YOUR FAMILY. SOMEONE NEEDS TO PROTECT YOU MAX, I WOULD LOVE TO STAY HERE WITH YOU"
"Really Carnage you aren't messing with me?"
"NO OF COURSE NOT"
"I would love for you to stay as well."
"THEN I SHALL. PARTNERS TILL THE END"
"Alright then partner."
Max stands up pulling the hoodie over his head and jumps off the building. The wind blowing in his face, his hair, staring down then up thrusting his arm swinging.
"What do you wanna do Carnage?"
"THE WAY I SEE IT ,WE CAN DO WHATEVER WE WANT"
