The Symbiote

Friend or Foe?

PART 2

(Chris's POV)

I somehow was able to wake up again. I could somehow see glimpses of what is happening, I could see Carlo, Ozzy, and Abraham. And they seem to be running, RUNNING?! I could feel my arms are being swung and extended, I am actually ATTACKING them! I remembered about reading about symbiotes in comic books and what are their characteristics, I tried to get full control of the symbiote and tried to warn them.

"Guys.....Get...Out.....Of......Here...", I said as I struggled through.

The voice that came out was kind of distorted. I saw them ran away and heard  what I said, they hopped into the car and started it quickly, I heard it and I was in relief, but my vision turned darker and darker and I then somehow passed out again.

1 DAY LATER..

I woke once again, but I saw a dark place around me. Looking around my body I could only see the ooze around covering me. Terrified, I closed my eyes, then I heard something in my head as if someone was around but I knew there was none in the vicinity.

" Oh hi there, you are finally awake. Your intense emotions, tastes good as I would expect."

I was scared since I knew there would be no one around to notice me, but I was able to gather enough courage to speak, I opened my mouth, but the only thing that came out was my breath.

" I didn't ask for a statement. Anyway, shouldn't you stay here for while? Hehehehehe....." 

The symbiote somewhat morphed into a jacket and it was blue-black, my body felt relieved and I could move again.

" Ooh. Thanks for the jacket.", I said while trying to get up.

" No problem, 'Host'.", the strange voice said sarcastically.

I knew I shouldn't stay here for long, so I decided to find a high area and tried to morph into a strange and weird form. I tried to reach out my arm and an unusual substance sprouted out of my hand. I did a little practice and I was able to swing around the city.

" Huh, you're actually doing well.", the voice said with astonishment.

"Comic books." I said with confidence.

I finall reached home and landed with a tiny vibration on the ground.

"Hmmmm.. Now where were my keys again?", I asked myself witha worried tone.

Suddenly, the ooze formed a tiny hole and the keys protruded from the hole. I got it and unlocked the door, closed it as I got in and took a seat in my foamy chair.

"Ahhhhh..." I said while relaxing on my comfy chair.

" I'm surpried you were able to swing around the city with ease.", the voice complimenting me.

"I want to make a deal with you."  I said strictly.

" Alright.." 

"I want to make sure I have full control over myself everytime I morph, I don't want to cause any harm to anyone, or anywhere."

" Sure..Whatever you want, 'Host'." the voice half-heartedly agreed.

I hurried to the bedroom and changed to my sleeping clothes. I noticed it was 6:30 PM, I didn't care so I went straight to the bed, curled up in my blanket, and slept.

MEANWHILE....

Carlo, and Abraham met Ozzy in his house and talked about what happened yesterday....

(Ozzy's POV)

"Boy, what happened yesterday was one of the scariest stuff I've ever seen." I said

while giving a creeped out expression.

"Dude, I feel you.." Carlo said with sympathy.

"I wonder what happened to Chris. He looked like one of those 'Symbiotes' in the comics. He was attacking us but I'm sure he wasn't doing it on purpose," Abraham stated.

"I think you're right on that, besides he tried his best to warn us or else we'll be sliced meat.", Carlo said agreeing with Abraham."

"So... What are we gonna do now?", I asked.

Everyone went silent. I guess they were as scared as I was. Even we are somehow traumatized, we need to help Chris, like RIGHT NOW..

"So anyone got the comics that talk about these 'Symbiotes'?", I asked hopefully one of them would answer.

"Me, I have alot of those kind of comics, hopefully it should be of help to us to help Chris.", Abraham said with courage.

"So? What are we waiting for, Let's go!!"

Carlo said loudly.

We went to Abraham's house and scattered the comics that could have helpful info that could aid Chris's life.

"Here guys, take a look." Abraham said showing us one page of a comic.

"Symbiotes feed off the emotions of their hosts, and causing their hosts to do dangerous things to feed themselves." Carlo said as he scanned across the page.

"That does not sound good at all, not even a little.", I said with concern.

"Guys, It's getting a bit late, It is already 9:45 PM. How about tomorrow?", Carlo asking permission if we can go home now.

"Since Abraham is the only one living here, couldn't we just stay here for the night?", I suggested.

"That would be fine for me actually, it shouldn't be a big deal.", Abraham accepting of what I suggested.

"Oh yeah, why didn't I thought of that?", Carlo said being ashamed.

We had dinner in Abraham's and we finally went to the room that had four beds.

"Good thing I had four beds for you guys.", Abraham said confidently.

We went to our respective beds and curled up in some comfy blanket made with thick, smooth cloth. few minutes later everyone was asleep except for me.

I was thinking on what to do the next day, I suddenly felt sleepy so I decided to abandon the topic for awhile and slept.

The trio are gonna need quite some energy for their search-and-rescue to aid Chris in his current situation. Will they be victorious? Find out in the next chapter!
