What If the story had planned things differently for Otto Octavius. Especially if he had bonded with the Carnage symbiote in Spider-Man 2. Find out in this FanFiction.
Rent Mr Mr. Ditkovitch said as Peter was about to enter his room in the apartment.
Hi Peter responded.
Hi Mr. Ditkovitch repeated. What's "hi"? Can I spend it? He added as he asked.
I have a paycheck due this week and... Peter responded.
You're a month late again Mr. Ditkovitch responded. Again! He added.
I promise as soon as... Peter responded.
If promises were crackers, my daughter would be fat Mr. Ditkovitch responded as he laughed off.
I'm really sorry, Mr. Ditkovitch Peter responded with an apology. All I got is this $20 for the rest of the week He added as he showed the 20$ note which Mr. Ditkovitch took away immediately.
"Sorry" doesn't pay the rent Mr. Ditkovitch responded. And don't try to sneak past me he added. I have ears like a cat and eyes like a rodent Mr. Ditkovitch warned with actions and his facial expressions.
Thanks, Mr. Ditkovitch for letting me stay Peter responded as he walked into his room.
That scum named Mr. Ditkovitch is a pain in the ass, dont you think Peter? Venom asked out of anger as Mr. Ditkovitch was the guy who got on his nerves with the whole rent thing.
Sorry bro but you know we can't do a thing Peter responded.
Speak for yourself kid Venom responded. It is not we, it is you who can't do a thing he added. I could bite and chew off his entire head off if not for the deal we made Venom added again.
Good thing that the deal is still on or else there would be end to my trouble Peter responded. Anyways good night Venom Peter responded before he prepared for bet as he took his clothes off.
Peter had been tired the whole day. He knew that it was just the night and after that the next day things would go on in his favour as he would meet Doctor Octavius. The whole paper thing would be taken care of and he could finally focus on his job and saving the city.
Peter closed his eyes as he fell asleep. In his sleep Peter suddenly felt a strange connection. A symbiotic connection that was flashing off red lights that were vivid like a dream but also clear like the reality.
He saw chaos and brutality and at the centre of all of it was Venom. But venom looked strange. He looked red. something was wrong. Peter knew that venom was dangerous but the also knew that venom won't be that brutal and red.
Something was definitely wrong. It was not the Venom symbiote Peter knew for the past 2 years. Suddenly it noticed Peter keeping an eye on it. Oh no Peter said getting alert.
The symbiote suddenly pounced at Peter to attack and consume him. Nooo!!
Peter screamed in horror as he woke up from his sleep.
Peter was totally drenched in sweat. Suddenly the alarm clock began to ring marking that it was 7am. Peter notice that his voice was loud but it was accompanied by another voice. Venom was also screaming in horror due to his powerful symbiotic connection.
What was that Peter asked venom. Venom was alarmed and he did not want Peter to know everything related to the symbiote kind. He had kept a secret that in the symbiote race the offsprings are stronger than the parents. Meaning that the next generation of symbiotes are stronger than the Previous generation.
Venom decided to lie. I am sorry Venom responded. what was what again may I ask? Venom asked as he added trying to look like he wasn't aware of what he and Peter would be dealing with in the time that was to come.
Are you hiding something Venom? Peter asked as he began to grow suspicious. Nothing Peter Venom responded. Now let's get going, you don't want to be late now do you? He added and asked.
Oh yeah! Peter shouted as he realized that he was getting late. Peter hurried along as he brushed his teeth and took a bath. Venom formed Peter's clothes in order to help him get dressed. Peter was finally ready.
Today is the day he thought to himself as determination coursed throughout his veins and reflected in his eyes.
Scene Break:
Location: The Octavius lab science research facility:
Peter arrived to see Harry waiting for him. He Harry Peter said. Good morning he added.
Good morning pal Harry responded. As I promised yesterday, here I am he added.
Good to see you again Peter Norman Osborn said who was alive and fully recovered from his guilt thanks to spiderman helping him out in the previous Fanfiction What if Spiderman got his powers from the Venom Symbiote instead.
I know it has been hard on you but today is a big day so try to look forward to it he added.
Yes sir Peter responded. Off course he added.
Anyways Norman said. How about you introduce Peter to
Octavius Harry? Norman added and asked as he turned to Harry. I have to attend a meeting with the others, will be right back just in time for the big event the experiment Norman added.
Sure dad Harry responded before both the boys waved Norman bye bye.
Norman went on his way to Oscorp leaving the 2 best friends behind.
Well it sure as hell felt good to see dad being himself after such a long time Harry said. Oh well, better get going C'mon Pete lets get you all introduced he added.
With pleasure Peter responded to his best friend and both got going.
Otto Octavius showed up and greeted Harry. Doctor Otto Octavius, so good to see you Harry said as he reacted. Oh the pleasure is all mine Otto responded. Bye the who is the college student? He added and asked as he looked at Peter who looked smart and full of ambition as a young man should always look like.
Oh hi Peter responded. I am Peter Parker he added in introduction as he shook hands with Otto Octavius the scientist he looked up to and respected.
Anyways Harry said. I am going to leave you guys alone so you can have some privacy in you conversation he added. Thanks Otto responded. Will be back before the moment of truth which is the experiment Harry responded before leaving.
So Peter Otto began. I heard you are writing a project paper on my research and inventions he added.
Yes sir Peter responded. I am truly excited for your fusion based energy source project he added.
Good to hear that Otto responded. Behold, as you are soon going to witness the birth of a new source of energy meant for both poor and rich alike he added.
Looking forward to that Peter responded.
Anyways the experiment is at 12:30 PM so feel free to have a look around at my stuff and ask any relevant question coming to your mind he added.
Ok Peter responded. He then began to look at the inventions and started taking notes.
As Peter saw the inventions on display his excitement knew no bounds. Peter knew that this was his go get'em call so he decided to learn as much as he could that fateful day.
Well I never imagined that humans are this much intelligent Venom said. Off course Peter responded. This Doctor Otto Octavius we are talking about he added.
Well you are lucky that I am not hungry Venom responded. But I suck at holding up so once the experiment is over, we grab a bite to eat ok? He asked and added.
Alright alright, Peter reassured Venom getting annoyed of the symbiote's insane hunger and appetite. Peter moved arround for a few hours looking for rare inventions that could make history.
Scene Break:
Location: The Octavius lab science research facility:
Time: 12:30PM.
Alright ladies and gentlemen Otto began as he delivered the greetings to his guest among whom were Peter Parker, Noman Osborn, Harry Osborn and a few reporters and photographers from the press looking for a great news story and other guests and visitors.
my wife Rosie and I would like to welcome you this afternoon he added. Doctor Otto Octavius was ready to present what he had invented in order to stabilize the fusion reactor.
But first, before we start has anybody lost a large roll of -dollar bills in a rubber band? Otto asked. Because we found the rubber band he added. No one laughed.
It's a terrible joke Otto admitted before walking towards his equipment that was behind him covered by a big blanket.
Otto took of the blanket and threw it away revealing a set of 4 mechanical tentacles coming out of a belt. Peter took a picture of the equipment as he raised his camera before clicking to capture and save the moment before his eyes.
Um, excuse me a Woman said from the crowd of guests. What are those tentacles for? she asked.
These four are actuators Otto responded.
They are impervious to heat and magnetism. These smart arms are controlled by my brain through a neural link. Nanowires feed directly into my cerebellum allowing me to use these arms to control fusion reaction in an environment no human hand could enter he added.
Doctor, a woman said. If the artificial intelligence in the arms is as advanced as you suggest, couldn't that make you vulnerable to them? she asked and added.
How right you are Otto said.
Which is why I developed
this inhibitor chip to protect my higher brain function he added.
It means I maintain control of these arms, instead of them controlling me Otto stated.
And now on to the main event Otto announced.
Ladies and gentlemen, fasten your seat belts Otto said as he prepared to put on the belt with the tentacles.
Give me the blue light, Rosie he added as the belt stuck to his neural brain link began to work. Precious tritium is the fuel Otto said as he took one sample of tritium that makes the project start. There's only pounds of it on the whole planet he added.
I'd like to thank Harry Osborn, Norman Osborn and Oscorp Industries for providing it Otto mentioned in gratitude towards Oscorp industries.
Happy to pay the bills, Otto Harry responded.
Doctor, we have a successful fusion reaction Rosie said as Otto placed the tritium sample into the fusion reactor which upon turning on shot laser beam containing heat towards the sample which absorbed the energy.
The internal properties of the tritium reacted to the energy and formed a small sun identical to the one in the solar system in terms of appearance. Thank you, Otto responded as he saw the sun emitting solar energy like the real one does.
The power of the sun in the palm of my hand Otto said as he saw success coming towards him.
Suddenly the newly created sun began to pull all the metal objects towards itself through gravity as the fusion reaction began to grow unstable.
Keep calm! It's only a spike! Otto said loudly. lt'll soon stabilize! he added.
Ladies and gentlemen, please clear the room a man suddenly said knowing that it was suicide to remain in that dangerous area. Everyone began to evacuate as the fusion reactor grew more and more unstable.
We have a containment breach! another man said.
Otto, please get back! Rosie said. Shut it off, Otto! Shut it off! she added in panic.
In the original Spiderman 2 timeline dr Octavius's wife Rosie dies due to injuries caused by broken glass. But in this timeline, she ran away and survived her fate.
Otto tried to stabilize the fusion reaction but his inhibitor chip got burnt in the process rendering him vulnerable to the advanced ai present in his mechanical arms.
Otto stop this experiment! Harry said as he panicked. It could put other people's lives to risk he added. Don't panic it will stabilize Otto screamed in refusal.
No, it won't Harry insisted.
If I shut it down now my dream and my hard work will go to waste Otto shouted.
your dream can wait Harry said but Otto wouldn't listen.
Where is Peter Harry wondered. Before Harry could figure out Peter showed up in his spiderman costume formed by the Venom symbiote.
Oh spiderman Harry said. Can you please convince Octaivius? Harry asked. He has gone crazy for his experiment, he wouldn't stop he added.
Leave it up to me Spiderman responded. Just make the people leave this place I will take care of the rest of it he added.
I am on it Harry responded. Harry and Norman evacuated in time. Spiderman began to pull the wires of the fusion reactor in an attempt to stop it. What are you doing?! Otto asked in panic.
Shutting it down to stop further destruction.
Oh no you don't Otto said before grabbing spiderman and throwing him out of the building. The fusion reactor began to melt the walls of the building. The ceiling began to fall as it crumbled.
The sun created by the fusion reactor pulled metal but Otto Octavius used his metal tentacles to stabilize the fusion reactor. It seemed to work at first.
But suddenly the sun became so much unstable that Otto realized that it was going to explode and destroy half of the city. Otto kept trying but nothing worked until it was to late.
Before Spiderman could help the sun in the lab became bigger and bigger before it exploded destroying the building.
I was odd that the explosion only consumed the building and not the half of the city.
An ambulance arrived after the explosion. Turns out that at the last second Otto Octavius got in the way and took all the damage caused by the explosion that is the reason why only the building was consumed.
The hospital staff from the ambulance took the unconscious Otto Octavius in and drove away leaving behind the police who had got the scene covered, prohabiting common citizens from entering the now restricted area.
Scene Break:
Location: Hospital:
The hospital was already busy with multiple patients and cases coming in. It felt usual and normal inspite of so many patients and cases of emergency coming in.
It was seemingly just another day for the doctors, surgeons, nurses and the other staff.
Suddenly the main door slammed open as the ambulance arrived and the doctors brought Doctor Otto Octavius who was unconscious and in critical condition.
Hurry up nurse we have an emergency! the doctor shouted as he rushed in the patient.
Yes, got it!! this way! The nurse responded without wasting time on second thoughts.
Otto was rushed quickly but there was a catch.
The rooms were all full and there was no other place to operate. The doctors got worried and dead nervous as time and hope was running out.
Goddamnit!! The doctor said in despair as impatience took over. Of all the times now was the only matter where we had to be short on rooms?! The Doctor asked.
Calm down sir a nurse said. We have other patients as well she added.
I know the doctor responded. But we all took an oath when we took on this profession and that was to save lives regardless of the difficulties and challenges in our path he added.
Yes, but that does not mean we abandon multiple patients to save just one patient you have brought the nurse argued.
Then how the hell and what the hell should be do for this patient who needs help.
Just then a doctor came. There is an empty room you can use he said. This way! he added
As life began to leave Otto Octavius, he was rushed to that room. The doctors began to treat but his pulse and heartbeat began to fade as shown on the monitor. The doctors tried to shock him to somehow revive Otto, but it didn't work. There was panic and constant failure.
Suddenly there was a beeping sound coming from every single monitor.
The doctor saw to their horror on the monitor as everything was off. Otto Octavius was dead. The doctors didn't know what to do and what to say.
He is dead! One of the doctors said. He, it ca...can..can't be he is..is go..gone He added as he stammered in reaction to the outcome.
The other doctors took off their masks and looked down in disappointment. They were all broken for not being able to Doctor Otto Octavius.
Outside in the waiting section Rosie Octavius sat on a chair. She was worried sick about Otto. She wanted a miracle to come along and fix everything and the coming of a good news that her husband is fine.
She was fully unaware of the fact that she had lost her husband in the wake of that experiment with the fusion reactor.
Suddenly one of the Doctors emerged out with sadness and disappointment on his face. Rosie who was desperate for news asked him. How is he? My husband, is he okay? she added as she asked.
The Doctor nodded in negative. What?! No way Rosie said as the shock consumed her. Tears came from her eyes as she reacted to her husband's death. The fact that she lost her husband broke her. She could no longer keep a straight face, let alone being able to smile.
I am sorry to tell you this, but Otto Octavius is now gone from this world the Doctor said. He is dead he added. Rosie fell silent. I am sorry miss but if there is anything we can do for you then let us know. Rosie didn't respond. The Doctor looked at her trying to bring her back to the world she was lost away from in her thoughts as trauma and grief had consumed her.
It is ok Rosie suddenly responded. You did your best, I request nothing more from you she added. Rosie began to walk away but felt a hand on her shoulder from behind.
She turned back to see the same doctor. We are really sorry for your loss Mrs Octavius. Rosie forced a not so giving up smile. Hey hey, it is ok she said. Like I said you tried your best it is nothing to get sad of she added.
We are terribly sorry for your loss the doctor said. See you at the funeral the Doctor promised as he implied his intentions of attending the funeral. See you then Rosie responded.
Scene Break:
Location: the operation room:
Date: 2004 time:11:30 PM:
Otto's dead body lay dormant of the hospital bed as all the signs and hopes for survival and life itself had faded. Everything was quite and silent in a combination of hopelessness and death. All signs of life were gone from the body. However, in the dark of the night the red symbiote carnage that was hiding this whole time, crawled its way onto Otto's body and made its way into the insides through the mouth, nose and ears.
With Otto's body vulnerable to the Carnage symbiote what will happen next? Will Carnage be willing to accept a dead host? or will it consume the body judging the worthlessness left behind with the body after death? Or something bigger? something unbelievable meaning the impossible?
A/N Yeah I know that this is a long one but fasten you seatbelts because from here on things are going to get a lot more intense not to mention interesting. That is it for this chapter, see you guys in the next chapter until then keep reading, keep enjoying the multiverse and stay tuned. take care.
