Chapter 44
Night time, the city had already been consumed by the encompassing darkness, though the streets were well lit, Implant couldnt help but scowl at the thought of the dark alley ways being filled with crime, currently, it was 10 PM a little earlier than the usual time when he would emerge, but it was done for a good reason, he needed to know how that screaming woman ticked, finding anything related to her scent proved to have been a hard task, so the symbiote needed a way for him to track her down without much issue. The biggest problem Implant had now was the fact that she really wasnt that active, so that means he needed to hunt her down personally.
A grin formed on his face as he jumped, he easily covered 30 feet, spreading his arms, the symbiote readied himself for a glide, asking the resident vigilante's of this city would be his first priority, these people wouldnt be a problem for him, both in locating and fighting them, though it does seem that the mutant always finds them whenever they got into a fight, Implant plans on looking into it, and if it does work that way then, he would break out into fights more often than not, but having two opponents could be disastrous, then it's a good thing that she's also a criminal, but if peter parker or that DareDevil fellow were to pick on who to help, they would probably go ahead and assist the one that isnt known to kill.
But did that woman really not kill though?
Food for thought.
Implant flapped his arms, the action gave him altitude, enabling him to see the city much clearer, even from this height, he could easily make out the faces of the people on the streets, his heightened senses were a gift, truly.
So uh, when do we... you know? Hunt that woman down? Jack asked inside of him.
"What do you think I'm doing?" He questioned back, causing Jack to scoff.
Yeah no, this isn't even scouting, you're just flying around.
"I intend to find spider-man." Implant replied.
I see. Good luck then. Jack stayed silent after he said that, and Implant flew above the streets of new York without noise nor issue, he tried to look for the spider-themed hero, and after a while of searching, he managed to hear a crime, one that had the sound of someone interfering along side it. Though it was pretty unusual, the sound that is, it felt like someone was able to go toe to toe with Peter Parker, that was what Implant judged when he heard the different noises, which were loud crackles that permeated his ears.
Implant let the sail on his back move, it guided his body on where to go.
Still, it was quite weird, not anyone can just compete with Spider-man in terms of strength, he did not know what to do should that person actually arrive, given that Peter himself managed to hold Implant back. So someone capable of causing these sounds shouldn't be unnatural and yet...
"Another problem arose." The symbiote said under his breath, "It seems that these people have been appearing quite a bit lately."
Yep, I gotta agree with you on that one, and then there's this new spider person as well. Jack commented, Have you figured out who it is? He asked, and Implant shook his head.
"I have not. Though if I did sense them, I would tell you immediately."
Thank you, information is quite important nowadays.
Implant continued to glide through new York, unimpeded, there were some people that managed to spot him, but other than some small commotion, nothing much has happened. Though that would mean that the world now probably knows that they're out, and that would mean that the criminals would stop doing whatever it is they're doing and leave, just to be safe. That was what Implant had thought as he looked at the buildings in front of him, they were still quite far off but he knows that the alley beside one of these buildings currently had Peter inside of it, he's sure of it.
Still, announcing his presence means that, that screaming woman should start finding them now too.
He hoped that would be the case as he spread out his arms like some sort of chipmunk, gaining as much air resistance as possible, it stopped his flight midway through as he softly landed on the building below him.
The sounds of fighting got stronger, he was now able to hear the loud crackles of the shockwaves clearly, and from what he could infer, it was just below him.
Implant moved.
Soon upon the edge of the building, the symbiote sat atop the alleyway, it gave him a clear view of the area below, he looked for any signs of Peter, to see as to whether or not he actually is fighting someone of his caliber, he followed the shockwaves that emanated throughout the entire area,
and then he saw it, a man that stood at the same height as him, with a build that's even bulkier than his, he wore a thick plated armor that hid most of his features, it was a grey medieval like armor that had a horn on its forehead. he punched Peter whenever he got the chance, but the hero always dodged whenever he did, with him releasing his own set of punches whenever he got the chance. Implant had a sheepish grin as he observed the battle, although Peter was clearly safe, he couldn't help but ponder as for whether or not he can fight this man, his blood boiled at the thought of this creature easily beating him with it's own fist.
So much so that he subconsciously made weapons all over his body, he felt his skin harden as he thought about how to properly deal with this man, he wouldn't hesitate to stab him straight in the guts should he ever battle with him.
He grinned, maybe stabbing him in the guts didn't sound so bad?
Tensing his legs, Implant turned his fingers into claws, ones that he deemed to be enough to pierce through that man's armor. Tendrils of different varieties grew out of his body, each one had a spear like appendage as their tip, they waved around like the vines of a tree, each one seemingly excited about the battle that's going to occur.
Implant Jumped.
