Up on the bell tower, the symbiote is laying on the ground, dieing without a host. At that moment Hush walks and approaches the dieing alien lifeform.
"He discarded you. Threw you away and left you here to die alone... He ruined you. Just like he ruined me." Hush says.
He then kneels down to the symbiote as it reaches out to me.
"You're calling out to me. Aren't you?"
Hush extends his hand as it slowly wraps around his body.
"Yes. You want revenge on him too."
The Symbiote fully covers Hushes body, turning him into a giant dark version of Spider-Bat's black suit, with claws, razor sharp teeth and a long tongue.
"We will have vengeance- ON SPIDER-BAT!" They proclaim.
The next morning Peter wakes up, seeing Ben and Jill looking at him from the side of his bed.
"Hey guys. What's going on?" Peter jokingly asks, slowly getting up from bed.
"We're just checking on you sir."
Peter smiles.
"I'm fine, Ben. I'm just a little tired. But I am glad you both are here. I owe you two an apology, I treated you guys horribly. I'm sorry."
"It's ok, Peter. It wasn't you, it was the suit. Don't be too hard on yourself."
Peter thinks for a moment, staring out of the window.
"But it was me though. My anger, my frustration... The suit just enhanced what was already there." Peter says.
Ben then puts his hand on Peter's shoulder.
'We all have darkness inside of us sir. But we can choose whether or not to let it define who we are." Ben says.
Peter smiles and nods. He then makes a realization.
"Oh God. Andrea, she got shot last night-"
"Easy Peter, she's safe at home. The bullet just grazed her arm, nothing serious."
Peter sighs out of relief.
"Thank God. I should call her though. I owe her an apology too."
Peter grabs the phone and dials as Jill and Ben leave the room, peaking outside of the door. When Peter hears her voice say "hello" he pauses for a moment.
"Hey its- me, it's Peter."
Andrea pauses for a moment.
"Hey Tiger." She says with a very somber voice.
"I wanted to check in on you, after last night, see how you were doing. Are you ok?" Peter asks.
"Yeah, I'm fine. I have few stitches and some pain killers so I'm just dandy."
Peter chuckles with Andrea for a moment, the first laugh they share in awhile.
"I also wanted to call to apologize for how I've been acting."
"You mean, like a dick?"
Peter chuckles.
"Yes. Like a dick. I'm sorry, I've just been... going through a lot. I just want you to know- I'll always care about you."
Andrea stays silent for a moment with a smile on her face.
"Apology accepted. Do you want to talk? In person I mean. I could come by."
Peter thinks about it for a moment.
"Yeah. I'd- like that." Peter says.
Andrea smiles ear to ear.
"Cool. I'll be there in a few."
As Peter hangs up, he turns around and sees Ben and Jill smiling at him through the door.
Later on, Andrea steps outside of her house and walks into a cab. At that moment, the driver turns around and Andrea gets startled by the sight of bandages over his face.
"Where to?" Hush asks.
Before she can react, Hush grabs her by the face with a sinister smile.
Back with Peter, he prepares himself for Andrea arrival as Jill and Ben continue to smile at him.
"Relax guys. Nothings changed, we're just talking." Peter says.
"Sure." Jill says.
"Whatever you say sir." Ben adds.
Peter smirks.
"We're gonna give you two some space, so you can "talk" alone, and in private." Jill says.
As Ben and Jill leave, Peter looks at his watch and notices that a few minutes have passed since he talked to Andrea. At that moment, a black web is shot onto his back and he is pulled and thrown outside to the ground. Peter quickly gets to his feet and looks around for who's responsible, seeing no one for a moment.
"Hello Peter. Or should we call you- Spider-Bat." An evil voice says.
Peter continues to look for where the voice is coming from, trying to stay calm.
"Who are you?" Peter asks.
At that moment, Hush, wearing the symbiote, drops down behind him without Peter even noticing.
"Someone who knows all your secrets."
Peter quickly turns around and gets punched in the face, breaking knocking him across the ground.
"Then of course. We were you."
The monstrous villain then grabs Peter and throws him into the wall. Peter slowly stands up, staring down the black suit.
"The symbiote? You ensnared another human being?"
Peter charges at him throws punches and kicks with technique. Hush is easily able to block then grabs him by the back of the head and raises him up in the head.
"Someone better suited to our gifts."
He then slams his face into the ground, pinning him down.
"And to our mission- destroying you for rejecting us! From now on- We're poison to Peter Parker and Spider-Bat. WE'RE VENOM!"
At that moment, Peter secretly puts on a web-shooter and webs Venoms face. He then elbows him in the face, freeing himself and kicking Venom in the chest, sending him stumbling back. Venom rips the webbing off of his face and Peter quickly dodges, grabs him by the arm and flips him to the ground. The villain then kips up to his feet, pulls Peter towards him with a web and punches him in the face.
As Peter forces himself to get back up, Venom laughs.
"Now you'll have to do better than that. Killing you now would be too easy. You haven't suffered enough, and we want to take our time dismantling you piece by piece. After all, we know who you are- and everyone you care about. Just ask Andrea."
Peter's eyes widen as Venom web-swings away. Peter gets back to his feet runs after him.
"Hey! Hold on! What did you did you do with Andrea!?" Peter yells.
He then puts on his other web-shooter and swings after Venom, with so much speed, no civilian can get a good look at his face, or even a glimpse of him. After swinging for awhile, Peter looses sight of Venom.
"Where the hell did he go?" Peter thinks to himself.
At that moment, Peter gets kicked in the back into a graveyard. While he's on the ground, Hush is standing infront of him. Peter is confused for a moment, then realizes what's going on.
"You... You found the symbiote after I took it off." Peter says.
Hush smirks.
"That's right. And now we'll get our revenge for the both of us, Petey."
Peter hears what Hush calls him, but before he can put it together, Hush pulls out a knife and throws it at Peter's head with great speed. Peter quickly catches, but at that moment Hush transforms and kicks Peter to the ground and catches the knife. Peter gets back to his feet, then avoids the knife, kicks it out of Venoms hand, and punches him across the face. Venom throws a punch that Peter side steps, grab him from behind and hits him with a german suplex, slammed him to the ground.
Peter kips up to his feet and tries to throw a punch but Venom catches it and knock him through a gravestone. Before Peter can recover, Venom continues the attack, landing multiple strikes in on Peter. Venom then lands a punch to the gut, then lands an uppercut that drops him to the ground. As Peter is barely conscious, Venom grabs Peter by the leg and drags him away. Peter looks over and sees Venom grab a shovel and start digging before fully passing out.
