Chapter 549: Hatred

/* The Darkness arc won't be exactly the same as the comics and I might even make mistakes while explaining some of the parts. The arc in the comics was a huge one spanning many different issues. And right now I am too lazy to even go through that again. But the general gist of the story won't change*/

"But that doesn't change the fact that your actions killed many people." Eddie said.

"It did. I can't save everyone. And people too needed to understand that racism against their own people won't help them. This world has seen too many dangers. Too many people caught in the crossfire, it's infuriating to see that even after all of this, these people have the strength to protest against the mutants." John said.

Eddie went silent when John said that. He knew that John wasn't exactly in the wrong. When he got Venom, he emerged to the world as an anti-hero. He would kill people who deserved death, but spare the innocents.

But sometimes, he could see that the innocents weren't exactly innocents. This infuriated him too. And before he could do anything the change happened. The change that they all remembered. A world where the mutants ruled.

These riled the people up and the governments were forced to take action. The people were happy as they thought they had gotten rid of the mutants once and for all. Only a few mutants were left and that too in a very distant island.

The people thought that they had finally won the war against the mutants. But reality slapped them hard, or it would be better to say John slapped them hard.

The Avengers were gone and once the villains realized that the heroes weren't in the picture anymore, the people suffered.

Venom, Punisher, Ghost Rider were one of the few people that weren't affected by what John had done so they continued with what they were doing. They were able to help some of the cities. But the villains were too many and Eddie had to exhaust himself saving New York.

Those days were a nightmare for him. He had almost gone insane during that time and had to fight so many battles just to save people. Some villains just wanted some fun and caused havoc but some villains were just downright scums.

Kingpin was one of them. He had to toil very hard before he could replace him and unlike Spiderman he swallowed his brain and just kept his huge body intact.

But all his actions always had counteractions. While fighting so many battles, many small offshoots from his body slid away and bonded with people that shouldn't have come close to those kinds of powers.

Carnage was born in this way. (yes I know he was born differently in the comics (Eddie and Cassidy were jail mates) and his origin was different in the movie).

And to stop Carnage, Eddie had to fight a lot. He almost lost his life and his son's life.

Dylan was the son of Eddie and now dead wife Annie (yes same Annie from the movies). And his birth was an enigmatic one. Annie got pregnant when she was She-venom (that one time when she bonded with venom).

But Dylan's birth wasn't as simple as it looked. He had powers right from his birth. Though an insignificant one but a very powerful one when it was rightly used. He had the power to sever symbiotes' connection from the Hive-Mind and even separate symbiotes from the hosts easily.

Eddie was finally able to win against Carnage. But the death of Carnage came at a huge cost. It had released Knull, from his imprisonment in Klyntar.

Knull, the God of Darkness, the person who was responsible for the birth of symbiotes. And of course he had the famous All-Black sword. One of the top weapons of their multiverse, powerful enough to kill Celestials.

When Venom merged with Eddie he had been transparent with him, saying that a person had allowed him to merge with Eddie. At the beginning he was very much thankful for what this unknown person had done for him and had given him huge power and a friend.

But soon after what had happened with the Avengers he came to know who that person was and little by little he started hating him a bit. Hating for the fact that this person manipulated his destiny and was the pawn under his wing.

When Knull awakened Venom had already ordered him to break the talisman that he had been safeguarding all this time in order to call John. Eddie never wanted to bring him but he knew a person like Knull would need strong power to content against.

And reluctantly he broke the talisman.

But this didn't change the fact that he hated John. he convinced himself that it was because of the death of people, but deep down he knew it was because of how John had controlled his destiny. His wife had committed suicide and his son now was all acting weird.

All of this he blamed on John.
