Marvel: I'm a Symbiote

Symbiote 0243: Elder Demons (1/2)

“L-lord …” A quivering voice reached Alex and Wanda, making them share an inquisitive look between them. “Undoubtedly … You have finally returned. Welcome.”

Wanda decided to play along, “Sending your lackeys to fight your lord sure seems like a warm welcome, doesn’t it?” She asked haughtily, barely holding herself back from laughing. “Reveal yourself.” Her words were accompanied by a crimson wave that passed over the entity, pulling it out of the subspace that it was using to hide itself.

Alex noticed the acute similarities between this new demon and the first eye demon that they fought. He presumed that this one must be one of the higher-ups of that eye demon’s lineage. “My deepest apologies, my lord. But the council has made the decision —“ Its speech was interrupted by a choking sound as Wanda raised her arm, narrowing her eyes at the demon.

“Choose your following words carefully,” Wanda said with a threatening voice. Combined with the red glow surrounding her red and black outfit and her crimson eyes, the words worked perfectly as the demon quivered further, not even trying to mount any resistance.

“It–it was a necessary precaution, my lord,” The demon said. “Before your arrival, two replicas of your current form had also entered here, claiming to be the lord of Chaos. Those pretenders weren’t even able to get through my clan’s sentry, the first lesser demon that you fought.”

“How do you know that I’m not pretending either?” Wanda asked with a raised brow.

“With how easily you dispatched all the lesser demons assigned by the clans, your strength is undoubted, Lord.” Alex only now noticed that the demon’s voice wasn’t coming out of any part of its body. Instead, it used chaos energy to express its thoughts by projecting them into the form of vocal speech.

“Of course it is,” Wanda said, “Lead me to the rest of the council. It’s only logical that I greet them all warmly.” The tone devoid of any warmth sent a shudder through the large singular eye that was the elder demon.

“At once, Lord,” The eye turned itself forward as if making a bowing gesture. Throughout the conversation, it didn’t even look at Alex or greet him. “Please, follow me.”

[They’re an unruly group of subordinates.] Alex told Wanda as a massive rift in space appeared in front of the eye which then disappeared into it. Wanda, instead of following it, traced the path of the rift’s exit and made another rift for herself which she was about to pass through.

[I’ll bring them in line.]

Alex narrowed his eyes at Wanda’s tone and grabbed her arm, stopping her from entering the rift.

“Wanda.” He looked into Wanda’s eyes which had red swirling in them, “Try not to lose yourself in your power, okay?”

“Why not?” She got closer to him and looked on provocatively.

“I’ll bring you to a special place called my dungeon where I will tie you up and fuck you for so long that you don’t even remember what month or year it is,” Alex answered her provocation by grabbing her nape and pulling her even closer to him. “I might even keep you there for multiple years, isolated from everything until all you can think about is the pleasure that I give you.”

Wanda tried to keep her composure, but Alex could gauge her arousal no matter how much she tried to hide it. “I’ll fight you …” She said weakly.

“Why?” Alex leaned forward and planted a gentle kiss on her lips. “Isn’t it more fun to submit to me? To give me control and let me pleasure you however I deem fit?”

“Fine, you win,” Wanda pouted. “I wanted to play around as queen for a little bit, but you ruined my entire vibe.”

He smiled, “You can play queen all you want. Even then, you will only be my cute and lovely Wanda to me. Even if you become my queen along with my other hosts, even then.”

She huffed, “You were doing so well until you mentioned those other skanks …” She escaped Alex’s arms, turned around, and approached the rift that she had been maintaining.

Alex shook his head, ‘That’s a problem for Future Alex to solve …’

Future Alex wanted nothing more than to travel back to the past and smack this idiot across multiple planets for this exact thought process.

…

Following the eye demon, Alex and Wanda appeared in front of some kind of a cosmic platform that was filled with endless complicated runes. It was surrounded by ten smaller but similar platforms, all of which were positioned slightly lower than the main platform.

“Please, lord,” The eye demon spoke, “you may take your place at the head, the other elders shall be here shortly.”

Wanda looked at the demon coldly, not giving it any answer. It felt confused and almost weirded out before bowing once again and taking its spot on the furthest platform from Wanda’s current position.

“What do you think?” She turned to Alex and whispered.

“Definitely another trap,” He said. “I can neither sense nor see anything wrong with it, but my True Sixth Sense is telling me not to stand on that platform. I believe it should have some kind of a restraining effect.”

“I don’t have a sixth sense like yours but an obvious plot is obvious …” Wanda said with a suppressed tone as she waved her arm at the eye demon who was about to push her to wait on the platform. The eye instantly stirred in its place and calmed down, staying in its place quietly.

Seeing Wanda act in such an unrestrained manner, Alex wrapped his arm around her waist, “Just don’t let the power get to your head. Don’t suppress my cute goofy Wanda under a mask of strength.”

“I could never,” She turned to him with a smile. “And even if I do, aren’t you there to keep me in check? You were going to fuck me until I don’t even know what month or year it is, right? Those were your words.”

“You don’t need to go crazy to get me to have sex with you. I’ll do it anyway. Very willingly and enthusiastically at that.” Alex said.

“It’s already been three days and you haven’t even inappropriately touched me once,” Wanda pouted. “I could even say that my slime partner has lost all his courage and perversion recently. I remember when you couldn’t go a few hours without inappropriately fondling me at inopportune times.”

“If you attack me like that, just imagine what kinds of things I could do to you in retaliation …” Alex trailed off.

“Please,” She nodded. “Retaliate, Alex. You can retaliate as hard as you want. I won’t resist in the slightest, promise.”

Alex was just about to reply to Wanda, but a crack in the fabric of the dimension distracted him. It had appeared right above the smaller platform beside the eye demon as the second elder emerged from it. Instead of a solid form, the demon reminded Alex of symbiotes, but a much more horror-infused version. It was comprised of some kind of black mass that had streaks of red running all across it. The red streaks constantly expanded and contracted as if pulsating like some kind of vein. Once it emerged from the portal, the mass gathered and rose up into a thin tentacle that ended in an eye. The eye directly looked at him and Wanda without speaking anything.

“I don’t think I want to see your tentacles again for a while …” The Chaos lady said with a shudder.

Alex laughed, “Please. I can take a form far more horrifying than that guy if I wished. That guy is barely a discount Shoggoth.”

“A discount what?” Wanda asked with a raised brow.

“You know how cosmic horrors have their own mythos, right? Like more well-known gods such as Thor, Odin, and the rest of the pantheons, the eldritch entities have their own mythos based on the Fear Lords. This guy right here looks very much like the Shoggoth.”

“I don’t care …” Wanda shook her head. “Just don’t try to use your tentacles on me for a while, or else I will keep imagining this creep.”

“Do you have anything beyond sex on your mind right now?” Alex asked jokingly.

“Not particularly, no,” She shook her head before looking into his eyes with an amorous look. “I’m sure you can tell that my head is filled with a very specific direction of thoughts.”

“Even with those guys there?” Alex asked. “What if I suddenly decided that I do want to fuck right now? What then, are you interested in doing it in front of these eldrich horrors that could very well become your subordinates if you don’t kill them.”

Wanda felt as if a bucket of cold water had fallen on her. “I may not look like I mind these scary-looking demons Alex, but I really don’t like them, okay? I do not want to be in their presence for any longer than absolutely necessary. Especially that Shoggoth guy who hasn’t taken its weird eye tentacle off of us for even a moment.”

Alex wrapped his arms around Wanda, hugging her, but before he could say anything, the third elder demon appeared through a crack in the fabric of the dimension.

“Oh, I know this one,” Wanda whispered excitedly as she sensed its presence, “That’s the Cthulhu, right? We fought a couple of its minions before …” She said.

“Yeah, something like that,” Alex said dismissively, examining the humanoid body of the demon with three pairs of wings, one sprouting out of its back and two from the lower ends of its legs. He didn’t notice any joints on its legs, indicating that both legs were singular entities. Its most eerie aspect, though, was the head. Instead of a human head, Alex saw a bulbous, pulsating sac with countless tentacles, big and small coming out of its lower end. In the place where its mouth should’ve been, Alex saw two sets of opposingly placed tentacles covering what he assumed to be the mouth of the creature.
