Enjoying a cup of tea while sitting on my balcony on a Sunday morning suddenly I felt a deep pain in my chest. I thought that this was the last moment of my life. I wanted to call my daughter my husband and everybody to say the final Good Bye but couldn’t do so. I was helpless. But the pain didn’t last long unexpectedly and fortunately. No sooner than I panted I saw my symbiote lying next to me.

“Venom!!” I spoke

There wasn’t any answer. I grabbed him so he could get back inside my body. For god’s sake he did. But sadly, just to say his final goodbye.

“The time has come, Anne. I have to leave” he uttered to my misfortune.

“No! Venom, you can’t . . .” I cried out

“This place, this Earth was never made for me. Even with this union with a host can’t keep a symbiote alive long enough”

“EDDY!!”, I cried out for help but Eddy wasn’t at home. Nor was our son there.

“IS SOMEONE THERE? PLEASE HELP!”

“Goodbye – Anne”, he uttered

“VENOM! – NOOO!!!”, I cried out but it was too late. The symbiote had gone forever and ever.

Without that companion our lives, mine and Eddy’s had taken a turn. At firstly, we greatly felt his absence but later we were used to it, as we had consoled ourselves. Infact, what he had left behind was a normal life for us. A life without violence and enhanced privacy. This was undoubtedly better. And our memories of him were now like a dream, a sweet nightmare. This was our story until last month, when I faced a similar turning point in my life.

It was late night and I was returning home after shopping. The street I walked through was rather secluded. And it all began when I heard that deep throaty voice in my head –

“Do not turn back”

This on the contrary urged me to do what I was told not to do. I looked back to discover a man, evidently suspicious. He was perhaps chasing me. And things became clear as he took out his butcher. Before I could’ve attempted to scream or run, two instances took place within an eye blink of time, right infront of my eyes –

A symbiote emerged out of my body wrapping itself all over me to unite and grabbed that man’s neck.

“Say hi to your doom” the symbiote uttered

Knife slipped from that man’s hand and he screamed aloud.

“Just a mouthful of face” uttered the symbiote just before biting his head off. I was stounded. I gasped.

“VENOM!?” I spoke

No sooner I figured his white color unlike the usual black one, he uttered–

“We – are Anti Venom”
