That should have been the end of Peter Parker. While in other realities he would have been a great hero who battled against evil and villainy, in this world he was powerless... and in the end done in by his own girlfriend and the young woman that had taken his place as the Spider. His body, drained of blood and left lying on the floor as the two transformed beauties began plotting the creation of their nest.
But This was not the end of Peter Parker's story. For what the two transformed women did not know was something else was watching, waiting for the right moment. This being did not have a name, not yet at least, and on its own it would have been no match for even MJ before her transformation. But it was far from weak... and when with another it would be a great power.
The alien being had come to this planet, seeking out the strongest being to serve as its host. It had been attracted to Gwen but seeing what it had become the alien had decided against her; her unusual genetic makeup would fight off any attempt to bond and might even cause the being to be absorbed into her and destroyed.
But that did not mean it was without a host.
Quietly the alien being that would be known in other realities as the Symbiote slivered over to Peter's corpse and pulled it away, the screams and animialistic hisses of the spider women drowning out the sound of Peter's body being pulled away. The two new predators never noticed that their last meal was leaving the room... and when they did it would be too late.
The symbiote dragged Peter outside before slivering up his body and oozing into the puncture marks on his throat. The alien was inspired: rather than simply bond with the host via skin-to-skin contact it would replace what was loss, becoming Peter's lifeblood and transforming them before. They would be fully merged, the dream of all symbiotes, into a new, better creature.
Had anyone looked out at that moment upon the lawn they would have seen Peter's body twitching and curling like a zombie awakening from the grave. The young man's eyes snapped open as his muscles began to swell, the symbiote working overtime to improve its new host... no... itself... for they were now one. Peter/the Symbiote let out a guttural moan as limbs thickened and expanded, Peter growing taller as every part of his enlarged. His skin stretched but before it could tear from his growing flesh it grew darker until it was an inky black. His fingers and toes twisted into talon-like claws and his tongue lulled out of his mouth as his canine teeth grew into fangs. Gwen's bite, and the little bit of venom within it, also caused changed, giving Peter and the Symbiote the same transforming venom that Gwen had... though this was altered by the alien dna to become something... more. It also gave him the powers of the spider, enhancing him into a being of greater power.
After 10 minutes the being that had once been Peter Parker stood up, a towering 7 foot tall man with a build that would put Mr. Universe to shame. His eyes, now completely white, looked towards the house where he heard the women... his killers... screaming in bliss.
"No," Peter/Symbiote hissed. "Not yet. Let them have their fun. Let them create their nest. It will give me time to find others... to create my own legion. A harem of the world's strongest women, converted into beings like me. Then, when the moment is right, I'll decide what to do with them." His tongue slowly licked his lips. He raised his arm and fired off a webline. "Enjoy your pleasures, my pretties... for Peter Parker may be dead but VENOM has arisen!"
With that, Venom swung away.
