Marvel: I'm a Symbiote

Back with Alex's main body, he'd taken his original human form and was exploring the ship. Trying to understand how the language and controls work.

His main body had stayed within the shuttle, suppressing his connection to the main hive-mind.

The shuttle worked as a support device that helped him suppress his presence to that of a normal symbiote within the hive-mind.

This helped him not become a beacon to all the symbiotes within the universe. His complete consciousness was very attractive to the symbiotes.

'I don't think I can understand this. I might need some help…' He thought as he tried to understand the controls and labels in the control panel.

He was smart but not some unbelievable genius.

Although Gwen was extremely smart, he couldn't copy that trait of hers. The symbiote could copy only the powers and physiology that its host has. Their smarts, ideas, and IQ weren't something that he could get just by bonding with them.

'I could devour someone, on the other hand…' He thought as his second symbiote also arrived at its destination.

There was a similar crash within Central Park Alex's second body landed.

'I guess they're all homed in at Central Park…' He thought as he exited the container and moved away, waiting for someone to arrive.

This time his situation was vastly different. He had all his senses which were also enhanced by bonding with Gwen. He was also able to take the form of a normal human.

Soon a familiar spandex-clad individual arrived at his location.

'You have got to be kidding me… Is someone controlling all this or is this just a coincidence… Am I just a puppet of the Beyonder?' He got annoyed when he saw the familiar scene.

He didn't know what was going on and didn't have any control over it, so he decided to do what he could. He decided to devour this Spider-Man.

He wanted to develop more abilities and for that he needed energy. Biological energy. Devouring superpowered individuals was the best way to do that.

He even developed a way to bypass Spider-Man's spider sense completely. He'd understood its nature when bonding with Gwen so he could easily ambush the Spider-Man who was walking to the shuttle.

It slowly snuck up behind the Spider-Man and the next instant he was covering the body of the Spider-Man in front of him.

"Arghhh!" He struggled futilely against Alex. Soon, he started feeling pain. Horrible searing pain, as if his body was being melted.

That's exactly what was happening. Alex was devouring Spider-Man, getting a lot of biological energy in the process.

He realized that all the powers that he'd copied from Gwen were getting enhanced.

The superhuman strength, endurance, agility, wall-crawling, and even the spider-sense were enhanced.

'The augmentations that I can provide to Gwen's abilities have also increased.' He realized that the enhancement of the symbiote on their host's abilities was also affected by his collection of this biological energy.

'I should test things out with Gwen…' He decided before focusing on finishing the devouring process.

'Oh hey, it's Andrew Garfield…' When he noticed the face of the spider-man that he was devouring, he realized that it was the iteration of Spider-Man from The Amazing Spider-Man movies.

'I guess this makes sense… These worlds are basically on the outskirts of the planetary cluster. It makes sense that they aren't the mainstream ones. The two planets at the center are probably the strongest…' He thought looking over the structure of the cluster.

All of the planets were revolving in delicate orbits around two planets that were at the center.

The rest of them were basically moons to those two main versions of earth.

'One of them must be 616… What about the other though? It's not 1610, I'm sure of that, nor is it the MCU…' He was deep in thought as he absorbed the memories of this Spider-Man whom he'd just devoured.

«Energy Point +1»

«Energy point has been collected»

«New feature unlocked— Skill Acquisition»

He was surprised as he saw a few notifications from his very minimal system.

'New feature? Skill Acquisition…'

His mental thought opened the Skill Acquisition panel for him.

[ «Skill Acquisition»

«EP: 1»

«Owned Skills: ‹Superhuman Grade Strength› ‹Superhuman Grade Endurance› ‹Superhuman Grade Agility› ‹Enhanced 6th Sense› ‹Biological Manipulation› ‹Host Enhancement› ‹Devour› ‹Copy›»

]

'Well, this makes things easier…' He realized that he wouldn't have to develop his abilities on his own.

'Teleportation…' This was the first ability that he wanted so he tried to search for it.

«‹Lesser Teleportation› ‹Greater Teleportation› ‹Master Teleportation› ‹Void Traverser›»

He focused on the ‹Lesser Teleportation› ability to get a reference of what he would need.

‹Lesser Teleportation›:: Allows the user to blink away, teleporting a distance of at most 10 meters. Requires training to optimize and determine the location. Cooldown: 1 hour. Cost: 10000 EP

'Motherfucker… Just rob me, why don't you…' He was full of complaints over the high cost of the ability from the system.

'10000 Fucking EP… I have to eat 10000 Spider-Men… Fuck. There better be a more efficient way to get EP…' He decided to look at a simpler skill this time.

‹Lesser Heat and Sound Resistance›:: Grants the user weak heat resistance and weak sound resistance. Passive skill. Cost: 10 EP

'10 Spider-Men for this shitty skill? It's not even immunity…' He decided to not look at this shitty Skill Acquisition and focused on his current situation.

He'd already devoured Spider-Man and absorbed his memories.

'It's somewhere in the middle of the second movie. Gwen's alive and is leaving the country for Oxford soon. This Gwen's much smarter than the one that I'm bonded to right now. I could use the excuse of studying some alien tech I found to work with her…' He thought as he took the form of the Spider-Man that he'd just devoured.

'Two Gwen's huh… I wonder how it would feel to fuck both of them side by side...' He was lost in depraved thoughts as he swung through New York.

He had two things to do right now.

One was to devour Harry Osborn, the newly formed green goblin, and Electro.

He was sure that devouring both of them would net him at least 3 to 4 energy points.

It was Electro that he was hopeful for, Harry Osborn might not even be worth 1 full point.

He knew that they were both in Oscorp right now.

'Spider-Man kills the CEO of Oscorp. Hehe…' He could already imagine the consequences of his actions.

…

Harry had just helped the hate-filled Electro to escape. They were both at Oscorp, killing all of Harry's opposition.

After finishing with this, they would go after Spider-Man.

As they were rampaging through the Oscorp building, there was a loud bang on the floor that they were at.

"Spider-Man!" Electro was the first to scream hatefully at the new entrant.

"Hey there, Max!" His goofy grin was visible even from under his mask. He was wearing the signature red spandex suit. No need to attract unneeded attention by going black abruptly.

Alex was enjoying acting out Spider-Man's persona.

"How you doing man?" He waved at him.

"DIE!" Max aka Electro was easily triggered by his nonchalant attitude and turned into raw electricity to attack him.

'Come to daddy, bitch.' His goofy grin under the suit instantly turned malevolent and he instantly activated the ‹Devour›.

Just as the electricity was about to hit him, it started to lose its momentum and started to get sucked into him instead.

Max was too late in realizing what was going on and got stuck.

He tried to escape by turning back into a human form, but that made the next scene even more gruesome.

Half of Max's body was sticking out of Spider-Man's suit as he tried to escape.

"Ahhh!" His desperate screams made things even worse for the others within the room. He was slowly sucked into Spider-Man's chest.

This scene was especially terrifying for Harry since he had seen firsthand the power that Electro had.

Spider-Man containing Electro like that was something that shocked his psyche completely.

'Fuck, this is difficult…' Alex was having a harder time than he showed. It wasn't exactly easy to absorb a sentient energy entity.

Even now, he hadn't actually devoured Electro and was only keeping him trapped within his body. It was going to take time for him to completely devour him.

"Harry! My old pal… How are you doing?" As much trouble as he was having right now, he didn't show an ounce of it on his face as he walked to Harry with a menacing aura.

"Y-You killed him!" He was a little shocked at seeing his best friend kill a person so easily.

He slowly hovered up on his glider, trying to make some distance.

"Not really… I just contained him. His death comes later…" He said in a murderous tone.

"Y-You're not him!" Harry's shock instantly turned into anger as the effects of the volatile green goblin serum affected his mind.

He threw a bomb at Alex, expecting him to dodge. He was ready to attack Alex after he dodged the bomb.

What Alex did completely turned him over on his head. He caught the bomb and absorbed it within the suit.

"What the fuck are you?" He got even more agitated and started firing the machine guns at Alex.

"Your worst nightmare, bitch.." He taunted as he checked his reflexes while dodging the bullets. He wanted to see how it was different from when he was with a host.
