"The kid escaped." Electro coughed out a smoke ball in Octavius' face.
The scientist turned his head towards the ball of energy, his facial expression was stoic, "Where did he go?"
Electro shrugged, "Probably back home."
Ottos thin lips curled back into an oily smirk, "Get Venom ready. We leave in five."
The metal arms dug into the concrete ground as the doctor walked away towards a different part of the bunker.
"Don't you want to get her in the training room first!" Electro yelled, his voice bouncing off the walls.
Octavius turned around, "What better way to train her than against the people she calls family."
A evil laugh bubbled out of Ottos throat as he walked away, disappearing around the corner. Electro turned on his heel and walked towards the room Venom was kept in. It was a dark room, not even a rusty light hung from the ceiling. Inside was a just a rusty bucket that acted as the bathroom. The walls were thick concrete with layers of steel behind. Even if Venom did try and escape, screeching noises would go off and bring the creature it it's knees.
"Knock knock, V." Electro chuckled, pounding on the steel door.
Venom shuffled from inside, y/n fighting for control on the inside and losing the battle the more the demons controlled her. All the guilt, anger, frustration, grief, built up and came bubbling out of her throat and into the giant, demonic form.
"It's time to go pay the old family a visit. Maybe do a little catching up with your brother." Electro pounded on the door, rilling up the symbiote from behind the door.
Y/ns scream came out as a roar, running out of the room and bursting through the door. The steel door clambered onto the floor, skidding off to the side. Y/ns face broke free from the tentacles covering her face, teeth still sharp and eyes were still pitch black. The black, small tentacles sticking to her skin. Y/ns hands gripped around Electros throat, squeezing his wind pipe.

"Wow!" Otto yelled in excitement, tilting his head back and laughing in amazement, "I mean, this is incredible!"
Y/n turned her head towards Otto, dropping Electro to the ground with a loud thud. Electro shot a string of lightening at Venom, pissing off the symbiote. Y/ns face disappeared behind the mask of Venom, roaring into Max's face.
"Enough!" Otto yelled, walking closer to the two and using his metal arm to help Electro off the floor, "It's time to go pay the family a visit."
"Your wounds are healing nicely and your stitches are looking good. You should be all healed within a few weeks." The small slap of the latex gloves peeling off Dr. Chos hand once she finished checking my injuries.
"Weeks!?" My voice rose a few octaves. We didn't have weeks. I didn't have weeks. I needed to find y/n and get her back where she was safe. If they really did what Peter said they did, then this wasn't something you wait around for.
"Don't worry, Natasha." Steve placed one of his calloused hands in my shoulder, squeezing gently, "We'll find y/n, and when we do, we'll be ready."
My lips pressed into a thin line, eyes drifting to the ground as I felt myself begin to zone out. Where would we even start to look? Peter wasn't healed enough to take me to the facility they were hiding out in. Maybe his memory wasn't as hazy as yesterday and he could show. Looking back up at my friend Steve, I offered him a tiny smile.
Cho and the blonde man left a few minutes later once I promised I didn't need anything other than rest. Lies. Something I've grown up doing and I was damn good at it.

Once the coast was clear, I tossed the small hospital blanket back and swung my legs over the edge of the bed, screwing my face together as a small wave of pain shot through my body where my stitches were. Pushing through the stabbing pain, I entered the code to my room and watched the glass doors slide open.
Peters room was next to mine so it's not like I had to walk far. Peter waved at me from behind the glass, greeting me once I walked into his room.
"How are you feeling?" I asked walking over to his bed.
"My minds still a little foggy. Other than that, my injuries are healing nicely." He ran his hands through his semi greasy hair, a brown lock falling onto his forehead.
I mindlessly nodded my head, sitting down in the chair a little off to the side. "I was wondering if you remembered anything about the place you were in."
"Umm... I remember it being dark. There were a lot of rooms but I'm not sure what was in them. Other than that, it just seemed like a giant concrete building."
"You escaped, though. Any landmarks stand out?" My body leaned forward in the chair, resting my elbows on my knees.
Peters brown eyes glazed over, one eyebrow cocked up as his teeth sunk into his bottom lip. His fingers picking at the skin on his thumb as he tried to remember anything from yesterday.
"It was kinda on the outskirts of town. I remember the giant bridge stretching over the water. So it was on the outer edge of town. That's all I can remember." A frustrated sigh left his chapped lips.
"Hey, it's okay." I smiled weakly at the boy.
"Hey, Peter. You have a few visitors." Tony peered around from the doorway. Tony stepped to the side and in walked Peters girlfriend MJ and his friend Ned. Both of them looked relived to see him, small dark bags under MJs eyes as Ned began tearing up.
"Shouldn't you be in bed, Mrs. Romanoff." Tony teased softly from his spot next to me.
"You know I can't rest until I find y/n and the sinister six is gone." I replied.
"I know." The ebony haired man hummed, scratching his stubble softly, "Which is why I think you should see this. Follow me."

Humanity's End
Given a year to prepare by the mysterious ‘system’ for contact with the wider galaxy, humanity must work to ensure the Earth’s defense is ready to meet any challenge. Sadly, most of the world seems dedicated to tearing itself apart as the year-end deadline gets closer. The west is in barely contained Chaos, while the east descends into internal conflict and war. The Pillar Forts, one of the few successful projects of the United Nations headed by the United States, stand ready to defend humanity against any invasion that may come through the strange Connection Pillars that appeared on each continent. Massive steel and stone walls that surround the Connection Pillars. They are filled with deadly men and women trained in all manner of warfare, each trained in the newly acquired System with skills and magical abilities that they put to deadly purpose. Beside these brave warriors, tanks, helicopters, artillery and more stand ready to defend humanity at each of these powerful installations. But, can they overcome the disparity in levels and experience between themselves and the forces that threaten them and the rest of humanity? Main Characters Jessica Brown- A young African American girl. Her 18th birthday in Detroit was the same day the systems message appeared. She discovered she was Level 7, much higher than most of the rest of the world. Why she is blessed, or cursed, with the power she doesn’t know. But what she does know is that she rather likes the feeling that comes with manipulating magic. The week after her birthday, government workers started testing every person in the US in a massive census effort of skills and abilities. Jessica Brown found herself conscripted into the US Magical Corp, a new branch of the US Military, and shipped off to a Pillar Fort. Somewhere hot and muggy in her ancestors’ home of Africa. As she grows stronger, she finds she has some connection to the pillars. While everyone else sees beauty or danger when they look at the pillars, after connection is made all Jessica can see is a Tree. A tree the size of the entire universe. Isaka Smith - is a third generation American and farmer who just wants to be left alone. But she is dragged into the situation by events beyond her control. When people in her small town had to deal with rioters and looters after the system announcement, she rallied them to defend themselves, earning her a trait that the government found extraordinarily useful. After a visit to a local reservation, she finds herself conscripted to lead one of the many small support towns erected around the great pillar forts. Not near her old home, but in far-flung Africa. John McIntire, the “Fighting Bull” -The commander of the African Fort, but because of circumstances beyond his ability to contend with shortly after taking command after being re-activated from retirement, he finds communication with his chain of command increasingly difficult. The US government, hell, even the United Nations, seems to have fallen into complete and utter chaos. The African Union is embroiled in a bitter civil war just outside his door, and supposedly, most of the world governments are in similar situations. Meanwhile, John must do his best to be ready to facilitate diplomacy, or to match the hostile argument of whatever force might come through the pillar of light when the year timer finishes counting down. Can our heros defend Earth from outside threats, while it tares itself apart? Or will they need to rebuild from the ground up? DEDICATION: This story is dedicated to my father who passed away recently. Jim Holloway, you’ll be missed you old silverback gorilla. Love you dad. Always have, always will.

Queer Tales From A Street Nominally Associated With Your Reality
The street is not from your world, and yet it's attached, clinging like a shadowy limpet to the edge of your London, your city skyline stabbing into it from above. Or well that's what we tell ourselves, no one who lives here really knows. We are after all just regular folk displaced from our original realities. Just a bunch of folks with queer tales from a street nominally associated with your reality. What to expect: - A series of interlinked short stories gradually unpacking the lives, complications and mysteries associated with those who live in the street - A weird pseudo-British setting where physics works inconsistently, and houses move position regularly - Stories filled with LGBTQ+ characters, and in particular ones on the trans/nonbinary spectrum - Potentially iffy grammar, I'm new to publishing my work online, so whilst I am checking things before posting it’s a near certainty that some things will slip through - A schedule of one chapter every two weeks.
