Description
Chapter 4 : Problems with government- Okay. I have her tracks.
It was almost midnight, but Toxin didn't feel as going back home : two hours ago, a only ten years old girl had disappear, and he was determined to find and save her if he could. Thanks to their parents, he had got part of a shirt who belonged to her, making him able to track her. Though he tried to stay quiet in order to not loose control on his symbiote's urge of violence, he felt furious : why kidnap a poor, innocent girl ? She wasn't even from a rich family, so it couldn't be to get a ransom. At least, he hoped she would be fine when he would found her...
As he run, he recognize the tracks, and stop in front of an old, abandoned building. Guessing this was the place, he crawled to the windows and look. A man was standing here, the girl's smell on him.
Toxin begun to growl, as his fangs and claws appeared. Roaring, he leaped in the room, breaking the windows, and seized the man. Ignoring his scream, he clung him to the wall and placed his monstruous face just in front of his.
- Where is she ? Hope for you she's fine !
Shaking, the man point at a door. Toxin sticked him against the wall with web and go to see. He found the little girl, tied up and gaged. When she saw him, her eyes widened.
- Don't worry, he said as his mouth and his claws disappeared again. I know I look scary... But I won't hurt you. I'm here to bring you back home. What's your name ?
Using a symbiotic blade, he freed her. She look at him with curiosity.
- Mia. Who're you ?
- Somebody who just can't stand men kidnapping and harming children. Call me Toxin.
- Toxin ? Why ?
- Don't really know. I didn't really choose this name. But come on, I'll brought you back to your parents.
As he spoke, he took her and placed her on his back. She screamed as red tendrils surrounded her legs.
- You don't have to be afraid. This is just to be sure you won't fall on the way.
- Fall ?
- Yes. Because we'll go by air.
Later, the kidnapper was in jail, and Toxin had brought the girl back to her family.
- Thank you, Toxin, she said as he was going to leave. And sorry for have been afraid of you at first.
- Don't be sorry. I know I'm a monster.
- I don't think you're a monster. You may look like it, but you save my life. A real monster wouldn't have done that...
- Thank you, Mia... and Good bye.
And he get out by the window. When he was far enough from the house, he change back to Mulligan.
- Did you hear her ? the symbiote asked. She told I wasn't a monster !
- Yeah, and I guess she was right. You may not be really a monster after all...
- Good to know that !
Pat begun to walk.
- A minute, Mulligan...
Pat turned over, only to see a big black and white thing jump on him. He was now clunged on the wall, with a quite familiar face in front of him. He gapsed in surprise as he recognized him.
- Venom ?
- We need to talk, Mulligan... And we think you know about what...
- Well ... Yes I did !
The red and blue symbiote merged around Pat, forming Toxin again, and he pushed Venom away, freeing himself.
- So you're back, "Grandfather"... What do you want from me again ? You look quite different than the last time...
Venom smiled hideously.
- We have more than just our look changed...
As he spoke, something like a laser hit Toxin, sending him in a car.
- Who... ?
A woman in a black and yellow suit appeared, hovering on the ground.
- You should show more courtesy when you're adressing to government agents, Fangface.
- Government agent ? What does that mean ? And who are you ?
- I'm Moonstone, field leader of the Thunderbolts team, whose Venom is part of. And you, Patrick Mulligan, a.k.a Toxin, are under arrest.
Toxin look at them incredously.
- Is that a joke ? The government recruit Venom as an agent ? You fools !
- Be careful about what you say, cop...
- The only thing I'll be careful about is to flee from you !
Toxin rushed Venom and jumped on a wall, projecting a web on Moonstone, immobilizing her. The woman became intangible and pass through the matter, but when she could finally look around her, Toxin was gone.
- Where is he ?
- We'll find him.
- Try to not kill him, Venom. Our order is to bring him alive.
- You silly, don't have to worry about that. Don't remember what happened to us the last time we tried to disobey ?
- Alright. Then, get him.
Venom agreed and ran after his "grandson", decided to capture him.
