Unknown location: Missing Piece

[AnT]

"Edward...!"

He felt a voice ringing hard in his ears, assuming he has ears. He can't remember what was he...

"Edward, wake up!"

Now he remembered. But he can't recall what happened or where was he. Looking around, he saw gold energy walls all around him. Beyond them looked like some lab, lit in red lights. "Where am I?"

"You're home, Edward."

Standing outside the energy cell was a man in a business suit, who seemed to have no care in his face. "This is where, what you become, was born."

Narrowing his eyes to clear his vision, "I know you. You're that guy who built that robot on the X-Men."

"Bolivar Trask," he introduced himself. "And this," he said, jestering at the shadows, behind him, "Is your...correction...ITS' daughter."

"What?!?"

Slithering into the room was a black puddle that formed into a slender, woman-shape jelly creature with a single white spot for an eye.


It slowly turned into a sultry woman with raven hair, though had some blue in the skin. "That'll be me, Inque Clay, dear 'Uncle' shall we say?"

[AnT]

"...uh?!" Now that just didn't make any sense, "...A-Another symbiote?!" Just seeing her made the Venom in him boil him....to the point that it felt like it was eating him.

"Right....my mistake....niece. But enough of such little detail."

"Wait. You said...the suit came from here. But that's impossible. It-"

"It was found outside of orbit? Unlikely. Your colleagues may believe it to be alien origins, but it is actually made here; worth billions of dollars in government contracts. Made by your father and Parker's."

Gawking in shock, he did, but was skeptical.

[Alien-Child]

She was jokingly referring Eddie as the 'uncle' but moving on. "Honestly, if it was alien in origin, wouldn't you think there have been a while species, not counting your 'off-spring'."

[AnT]

"The 'suit' was created by Richard Parker and Eddie Brock Sr., in the attempt to cure cancer." he scoffed, finding that goal funny. "Or at least they thought they were. It was my attempt to weaponize the suit, as a mean to 'control' mutants." And he said 'mutant' with distaste. But they discovered that, especially after the final model proved too unstable under intense electrical conditions. They burned all records of their research and tried to flee the country."

Pacing around, he remembered how furious he was that all that research burned away by that idealistic Parker.

"But their flight happened in a thunder storm, and it was said a black monster somehow appeared inside the flight, causing it to crash. The only survivors was Richard Parker, and the beast, resembling Venom...which it was. Reports shown that your father and Parker's were found dead near a shuttle launch in ESA. I come to suspect that your father snuck the last remaining samples of the suit. He had an interest in weaponizing the suit for a good profit, and I believe he wanted to sell it to a higher bidder, since he couldn't do that with me...not in front of Richard. And my guess that Richard sacrificed his life getting the suit aboard a shuttle before it launched; burned from its thrusts."

[Alien-Child]

"Then, it managed to find its way back to earth, thanks to Jameson."

[AnT]

His death of his parents...the whole reason...was because of the man outside his cell!

Shooting up to his feet, "WE'LL KILL YOU!!!"[/i]

And suddenly, the energy walls vibrated, creating a piercing sound in the cell...

"AAAAAGH!!!" Forcing the symbiote to withdraw in Eddie, who fell to his knees.

"Sonic-energy walls; programed to emit a high-pitched sound should you try to do that." Luckily for Inque, she could barely hear any sound, outside the cell.

He didn't care, his rage wouldn't allow to admit defeat to the man responsible for his parents' deaths. And as soon as he recovers...

"Listen, boy, your precious suit wouldn't come back to you if it wasn't for my help. I managed to find it in the sewers. After viewing limited memory, that lasted the last few hours, I learned that Spider-Man forced a gene-cleanser into you. So I remedied that, and lead the suit back to you. I still need you to continue testing the suit."

[Alien-Child]

Her body jiggled a bit, maybe just a reaction to seeing Venom pushed back.

[AnT]

".....grrck..." he growled, feeling like something was knawing him inside. "...but why....does it feel like something is eating me?"

"I admit, it's a flaw to my 'antidote' for the gene-cleanser, somehow. A piece of the symbiote separated from it, and that was before Carnage came to be. It might be the stabilizer that regulate the output the symbiote draws phenethylamine from you. Without it, it'll eat away it rapidly, so you feel a craving to drain energy from other beings."

[Alien-Child]

Thankfully she has no side effects like that, she has her own to deal with than to add constant 'eating'.

[AnT]

"So what? You want me to find this missing piece?"

"And have you run off? No, I need to take a sample of your suit to create something to track the missing piece."

And again, the cell emitted its terrible sound.

Roaring with a monstrous shriek, after the sound forced the symbiote on him, Venom passed out.

[Alien-Child]

Once again, her body jiggled. She is so glad she's not the one in the cage. "Pity, all this power, yet taken down by a common weakness." Now she knows how Superman feels.

[AnT]

One part of the cell faded, allowing Trask to casually enter. Taking out a medical needle, he pierced it on Venom's shoulder and reeled some black ooze inside it. Walking off the cell, the energy wall came back. "I shall analyze this sample of come up with a tracker to locate the missing piece."

[Alien-Child]

"And if that sample already found a host?"

[AnT]

"....rip it out of its shell, if you have to." he said, coldly, marching out the room.
