Symbiotic Shorts: Future Foreshadowing
*You think you know what each of our little parasites do on their off days? I know we have an arc currently going on, but this is a small subplot that takes place after the Vacation Arc!*
Symbiotic Slumber Party
"Hey girls! Are you ready to have some fun?"
Ravage grinned at the three other symbiote females in her little group. Mania was looking bored, checking her host's phone for funny memes. Scream was grinning, eager for some excitement. Agony was smiling as well, most likely thinking of the various shenanigans that would occur from their antics.
"Why are we doing at your house on a Friday night? Are we plotting something?" Scream asked, curious.
"My oh so weird aunt suggested we gather together and have some "fun" without the boys." Mania informed the two, making them give Ravage a look of surprise.
"Is this what the humans refer to as a sleepover? I've never had one before!" Agony squealed, making the other two wince. "Are we going to have pillow fights? Make popcorn? Talk about boys?"
Ravage pointed a finger at the stack of movies, blankets, and pillows on the coffee table. "As long as we keep the house clean, Vivi said it was alright!"
"Sounds like some fun! I expect to gorge myself on pizza too!" Scream asked, licking her lips. "How did you manage to get the boys out of the house for the night?"
"Oh I convinced Venom and Toxin to gather all the boys and go hangout downtown." Ravage said, turning on the stove for popcorn. "Why do you ask?"
"Um...did you tell them to hangout in symbiote mode or human mode?" Mania asked, now deciding what movie to watch with Agony.
"Oh I'm sure they'll be fine. What trouble could get into by themselves?"

Dozens of civilians fled from the best bar in New York. The Boozy Bear had been invaded by the strangest sight that the poor owner had ever seen. He just stood there at the bar, pouring drinks alongside his frightened worker for the gentlemen sitting at the counter. Venom happily took his drink, handing the other one to Toxin who stared at it curiously. Lasher was playing pool with Phage, the latter getting frustrated with his partner's winning streak. Carnage was already drunk, a few people lying dead in front of him from a bar fight that had happened earlier. Riot was at another table, eating a bunch of nachos. Anti-Venom watched the television at the bar table, a bottle of whiskey in his hand.
"Can you believe she kicked us out for the night? After all we've been through, she decided to send me away!" Venom started weeping into his drink, Toxin patting him on the arm.
"It's only for the night grandpa! Besides, Ravage is your mate! She will always come back for you in the end." Toxin took a sip of the drink he got. "Ooh...fruity!"
"Quit your whining! She could've been with me! I am the superior leader of the Life Foundation! A girl like her should be with me." Riot yelled from across the room, getting a growl from Venom.
"Literally you two are ruining my good mood! I just killed a bunch of punks so that we could have this whole bar to ourselves and you go talk about some chick!" Carnage took another swig of his pitcher. "What makes her so much of a big deal?"
"Considering that you have never mated, then you don't know the perks of having a female symbiote in your life!" Phage said, hitting the cue ball to put the seven ball in the pocket. "They have this scent that attracts all potential customers who want to have a taste of that good stuff."
"And that girl has a powerful scent! It's almost...heavenly!" Lasher shudders, licking his lips. "Anyone who smells it has the overwhelming feeling of protecting her!"
"That's dandy and all, but don't you find it strange that she just popped up out of the blue?" Anti-Venom snarled, giving the others a serious look. "Like one moment, Venom was just living with that human woman and then when she was weak and vulnerable, it attached itself on her!"
The others were silent as if considering his words carefully. That was a strange thought. Ravage wasn't from Klyntar like Venom nor was she created in a lab like the Life Foundation symbiotes. In fact, as far as any of them were concerned, there was no form of origin for her!
Venom looked over at his white counterpart before taking another drink. "Then where, pray tell, do you think she is from? If she ain't from my planet or this one, then where could she have come from?"
Anti-Venom shrugged, looking down at his bottle. "What we know about her us that she is intoxicating and we have a sense to protect her. I tried to kill her, but found myself unable to!" He turned to Carnage. "You were the same way, weren't you?"
Carnage cackled, smashing the pitcher. "So what? I was almost this close to mating with her until my stupid father swooped in to save her! Even I had to control myself when I was torturing her human side."
At this point, Toxin was actually impressed by the way Venom was containing his rage.
"Regardless, she is here and we all have some sort of attachment for her. In the end, she will have to choose one of us." Riot concluded, gaining their attention. "When she does, none of us will be able to claim her. We must respect the chosen one and not try to kill them! Agreed?"
They all nodded, shaking each other's hands. But they all had their fingers crossed behind their backs, promising to see what happens next. The bar manager gulped, knowing this would only end in disaster.
If only they knew what was coming next.

Somewhere in the depths of Space...
A lone figure was floating around I'm a distant planet, a great evil stirring within the very core. Red eyes glared at the blue planet from millions of miles away.
"That Venom has no idea who he is messing with. My spy will not fail me for lasting this long. To see them all fall victim to my children will be satisfying...." The dark entity said, shifting his gaze to the single form of Ravage. "You soon will find yourself unable to run for I will catch you, my dear."
