Chereads / King in Black / Chapter 2 - Cannon derailed.

Chapter 2 - Cannon derailed.

'Well...that was embarassing' Collin thought as he took off to the air at incredible speeds, and yes, his name was Colin Illiad, unlike many others who he have read about, Collin didn't die by a truck, not by anything really, one moment he was sitting in class, the next, he was inside a Graveyard, tearing off his clothes as he transformed into something inhuman.

'Its funny, really, others get dropped in Worm and immediatly start making plans on how to 'fix' things, help Taylor and Amy, kill the 9, and so much more, and I...I just cried' Collin was slightly dissapointed in himeself, but he was also kind of relived, after all the fact that he broke down proved that he wasn't being influenced by his now immense power.

'The powers of Knull, huh' Collin knew much about Knull, The Eldritch God of the Symbiotes and Darkness, the King In Black issue was one of his favorites, so he was a bit worried that as he was now him, the darkness of the void might mess with his head, however, it looked like his worries were unecessary.

Flying high in the air, Collin headed slowly to the loud noise a few streets away while thinking 'Techniquely, I only have 3 powers, the first being the Divine Physiologie of Knull, the second being the capability to manipulate 'Dark Energy', and the third is the manipulation of 'The Living Abyss', if I am as powerful as Knull is, and I have yet to find a reason to believe the opposite, then unless this some sort of AU where the Entities are much stronger than I remember, I SHOULD be the strongest in this universe...'

And what a bizzare thought that was, power, Superhuman power, a concept that Collin used to merely dream of obtaining, an imaginary idea that now became his reality.

By now, Collin or the Hero Klyntar could already see the battle, tiny figures moved aroud a silver fiery beast, in truth, Klyntar could see what was happening in the battle clearly even if he was miles away, but he has been suppressing his senses since he learned how to so 7-8 minutes after he was transported and transformed.

Klyntar stopped for a bit, before he launched himeself into the battle 'Knull was being powered up from the All-Black Necrosword and his Symbiote armor with both of them transfering energy from the dead Celestial to him, however, even when Knull didn't have that power up, and later on when lost it, he was still stronger than an 'average' Celestail and even overpowered Thor.'

He was not attacking Lung now just because, rather it was a test, althought he felt immensely powerfull, it could be just an illusion after being human his entire life until today, but if he was indeed as strong as Knull...

Klyntar's lips curled upwords as he slammed into the Dragon from above, his evil looking sword slashing without mercy, the beast's flesh parted ways as Lung...was split in half...

...

10 minutes ago.

Battery picked up the Villain 'Hellhound' and jumped just in time, as a torrent of flame incinarated whatever was behind her, she put the villain on top of a random roof before joining the fight again.

She had only been in the fight for less than five minutes, but Lung has already grown a feet taller, now 13 feet in hight, a small pair of speae like silver wings growing steadily on his back.

She casualy dodged a swipe of his foot long claw, before backing into the darkness of Grue's power, she could not see in here, but Tattletale helped position her, they had been stalling and generaly avoiding direct combat against Lung to not further his growth, but that was failing in a spectaculaire fashion.

"Its either our attempts at distracting him is still making him grow or its Grue's darkness, I am more inclined towards the later" the voice of Tattletale sounded from her head gear, not even a bit smug.

According to the Villain teenager, this whole mess started when a new Master cape that could controle insects attacked Lung, she said that the cape was doing well 'initialy', but soon enough Lung escalated to the point where he burned throught the bugs and then almost burned said cape to death if not for the interferance of the Undersiders, Battery and Assault has seen the 'girl', and it was difficult to even recognize her gender, she was not a medical expert, but those were at least third degree burns.

"And what do you want me to do? He will soon be fast enough to catch up to me" Battery asked, she had allowed Tattletale to direct the battle since she was the only thinker, but now she started regretting that decision, her husband was a bad match against Lung and was currently fighting Oni Lee further away, the battle was short, yet 3 buildings were already on fire and sounds of grenades going off only added to her distress, not to mention the fact that she had to stop briefly every 40 seconds or so to recharge.

"We can't take away Grue's darkness, its the only thing keeping Lung from rushing throught and killing anyone among us who is not capable of dodging or enduring his strength, we can't send Bitch's dogs either as they can't see in the dark, and he would soon be able to cut them apart even if they could, Regent's powers are barely working on Lung as he is now, so I am sending him to help Assault, our best option is to wait for Armsmaster and that new cape to back us up" Tattletale's calm voice souded to her, and Battery agreed, Lung was not usually this aggressive but the Insects girl enraged him, and now he was taking it out on them.

Suddenly, Lung exploded! Fire spread to every direction, putting an end to the dark smoke, Battery was blasted away.

'Thank god I am invincible when I am charged up' she gazed ahead at the now visible Lung, each of his wings were already around 4 feet tall, and he himeself was around 14 feet, extremly bulky, his head and long neck no longer resembled that of a human, his sharp claws sank into the concrete as he towered over them, the Dragon's eyes filled with malice as he pounced on her.

At the same time as Lung jumped on her, Tattletale's issued multiple commands "Battery, distract him as long as you can, Grue will help dealing with Oni Lee, the three of them there should be enough to defeat him and support us quickly, Bitch will send her dogs to help you"

Battery barely dodges the barrage of attacks Lung thrown at her, each claw was follwed by fire sweeping all in its path, she jumped over his shoulder as he slammed his fist to the ground, and kicked his serpent like eyes, and then jumped away.

Roar!!!

A loud roar came from his mouth as he moved after her with a speed that should have been impossible for a creature that size, and this time he didn't bother to stop after she dodged, instead he rammed into what was once a shop with full force.

"Ahhh"

"No!"

Battery eyes widened as she spotted two kids falling off the building Lung decimated, they were...filming.

"Where are those dogs!?" She screamed and ran, but only silence replied to her.

She jumped up to catch the stupid kids, but it was too late, a whip like tail swiped out so incredibly fast, shredding the two teenage boys, and throwing her across the street, blood re-coloring her blue and grey costume.

"No..." she mouthed in fear as she got up, witnissing a scene straight out of a horror movie, the two kids, no older than 16, were dead, they were moving and squirming around, but unless Panacea teleported here, they were dead, their intestines and internal organs out on display, the Dragon walked slowly towerd her, still on too limbs, white flame interwining with yellow ones rolled out of his form, incinerating all around, his bat-like wings pulsing in the air.

'He is coming to kill me' Battery realized 'I need a couple of seconds to charge...'

Sadly, the moment she attempted to charge up her power, Lung exploded towards her so quickly the ground shattered, even faster than she would have been capable of at full charge.

Her eyes widened, Fourtunatly, before the fiery claw flattened her, a red clad hero smashed into Lung, throwing him off his feet, but Lung retaliated not a second afterwords when a stram of fire scorshed everything in front him.

"Assault!" Battery screamed, he had dodged, but his entire left arm was in flames, not mention that his upper armor was utterly dismantled, his mask non existing, most likely the aftermath of fighting Oni Lee.

Assault swatted the fire as if its no big deal and said "Turns out Oni Lee teleported by sight, I got him quickly after Grue came and Regent restrained him"

"The Undersiders?" She asked as she stood with him, she had noticed that Tattletale stopped talking, Lung merely observed while flexing his wings.

"Ran away after Oni Lee was down" Assault replied, his eyes roaming the torn appart street, PRT trucks were already surrounding the perimeter, rescue teams entering buildings and dragging people out, too much blood and body parts all over the road, some over his wife, some idiots were still filming, Lung was almost as big as he was when they fought him all those years back.

'All in all, a shit situation, and we were only supposed to meet a new cape' he sighed, they needed to restrain Lung, or at least make sure he dosen't go on a rampage, with just the two of them...

"Yeah we're gonna die"

"I am glad your opptimistic" Battery said.

"Ohh I said that out loud" he relized, his and his wife posture changed into that of combat as Lung crouched low, getting ready to pouce at them, he did it slowly, as if he enjoyed their anxiety, sadly for Lung thou...

A black and crimson blur smashed him in the back, splitting him in two, utterly ignoring the flame.

"What the fuck..." Assault jaw opened comicly low, as the cape that split Lung jumped up and stood in front of them, not paying attention to the dragon, he was very tall, clad in black armor with a long red cape, a glowin red insignea on his chest, holding a crimson black sword tentacle thing in his right hand.

"Ah...hello, I am Klyntar, a new hero" the pale Cape said in an expression that conveyed enbarassement despite his menancing face full of sharp teeth.

Assault was bamboozled, Battery was as well but she did not allow it to affect her ability to speak to this seemingly powerful brute.

She didn't manage to say anything, however, as Lung shot a torrent of blue flame towards them, his lower body reconnecting and mending with his upper as he grew even bigger.

"Oh?" Klyntar raised an eyebrow, his cape redormed into a red goo before rising as a shield in front them 'Symbiotes are usualy weak to fire and sound, that is due to the fact that they remember the fire and the noise of the forge when Knull created the All-Black Necrosword, its some sort of trauma that became physical weakness, but the ones I make never experianced such a thing so natuarely, they have no such weakness'

And as he thought, the red Symbiote he created from the Living Abyss on a whim resisted the flames for 20 seconds with no problem, and turned back into a cape.

Klyntar looked at Lung, he was fully healed, and noticibly bigger than before 'My power seems to be no different from the original Knull, whitch means I don't have any reason to extend this fight and endager people, I could just kill him or infect him with a Symbiote outright'

"Fall back, I got this" he said to the two heroes behind him and attacked while thinking 'I shouldn't infect him with a Symbiote in front of them, the people in Worm are against controlling others big time if I remember things right, but that dosen't really matter, Knull overpowered fucking comic Thor, this bitch ain't shit'

Klyntar jumped at Lung, and the later did the same, not feeling any fear whatsoever, not yet, at least.

"Uhh..." Assault looked at his wife then at the battle with a confused expression, this random new cape Klyntar cut off Lung's left arm instantly, and seemed uncaring about the fire.

"Yeah...someone won the power lottery" Battery comented with a dry tone, Klyntar ignored the dragon's attempts at attacking him with the silver claws and cut off his legs.

Klyntar didn't bother to dodge the flames, he back handed Lung with his left hand with so much force, the dragon was yeeted in the air, then he mentally commanded the Symbiote sword to shape itself into a spear, which he hurled at Lung.

Lung, however, wasn't one to surrender, he ignored the spear stuck to his torso, and simply breathed fire down on Klyntar and everything around him while dropping down.

"Roar!"

The flames burnt everything around Klyntar 'This can go out of hand very fast if I don't end it soon, he doesn't seem to threaten me at all, but the same couldn't be said about stuff around me, I already know propriety damage would be in the millions'

Thankfully, this battle was pretty much over the moment Lung allowed the Symbiote spear to strike him.

As the dragon fell with a thud, he attempted to explode again, but it was too late, the crimson black spear which was on his abdomen disolved into liquide goo and invaded his body.

Klyntar has used the Living Abyss to change the Symbiote spear into an actual Symbiote and mentally dominated Lung throught it, it was a rather fast proccess.

"Stop fighting" he commanded the Symbiote infecting Lung, and the later obeyed immediatly, now suddenly silent.

'Curious' Klyntar thought as he walked to Lung 'It would only take a thought from me to make him do whatever I liked, I could make him fight for me, and even kill himeself if I asked him to do so'

As he stopped fighting, Lung began to slowly de-transform while his legs and his arm regenerated 'The Symbiote with him has fully taken control of the brain, and since I am controling it, I am also controling Lung, and I could create Billions of these things, now thats scary...for everyone else'

'This a loss thou, I was not planning on showing off this ability, damn you impulses' Klyntar stood in front Lung and waited patiantly, he knew that the moment he turned around, others will sworm him, so he just looked at the silver creature in facination 'I got give it to him, he is majestic as fuck'

"I see you were not bluffing when you said you could take down the 'fiery lizard', Klyntar" Collin turned around, it seems like Armsmaster has arrived, Assault and Battery behind him, Assault wearing a pair dark sunglasses as if that would hide his face.

'Well time to face the music'
