★(HURT TO SAVE)★
After some minutes of driving,Blade stopped the car
“It’s here” He said and Venom opened the door
“But no one is….” Before he could finish,two cars stopped beside their car and the door opened
A girl came out of the first car while two other guys came out of the other car
Blade and Venom also came out of the car and stood beside each other
“Wow,finally I’m meeting you guys” The girl said as she walked to them with bright smiles on her face,no doubt she look so hot.
“Hi…I’m Jubilee” She said stretching her hand for a shake toward Blade
“Blade” Blade said and they shook hands
She turned to Venom
“Hi” She said
Venom looked at her stretched hand and then her face
“Oh” Jubilee muttered and dropped her hand feeling embarra-ssed
“You’re here with the bag,let me have that” She smiled
Blade took the bag and handed it to her,she threw the bag to one of the guys
“Check” He said after opening the bag
Jubilee faced them back
“Do you mind having a drink with me? There’s a close bar…”
“Sure” Blade said and Venom looked at him
Blade winked at him
“You two,return to the mob” Jubilee said to the two guys
“Yes my lady” They chorused and entered the car at once
They left
“So,shall we?” Jubilee smiled and also entered her car
“You love doing things your own way” Venom muttered as they get into the car
“Having a drink isn’t a sin” Blade replied and followed Jubilee’s car
Soon,she stopped in front of a club house and they all stepped down from the car
“I do come here alot” She said,smiling again
Venom scoffed,her smile seems annoying a little
They went into the club,it was all rocky and busy but they got somewhere private to sit and drink,free from the loud music
“How about an introduction each?” Jubilee asked as the waiter poured the wine into their gla-sses
“I will start” She added when none of them said a word
“My name is Jubilee,I’m 23,actually my father own GORDON MOB,here in Italy. I think he’s quite close to your godfather…..in addition,don’t un-derestimate me,I’m smart” She winked
Venom scoffed
“Now your turn” She smiled
“Blade” Blade said
“Blade? Wow,you must be sharp….wait…that’s all? Just Blade?” Jubilee asked
“What else should I tell you?” Blade asked
“Your age of course,you look younger than me tho” Jubilee grinned and Blade laughed
Venom roll his eyes and started drinking,he kept on checking the time every minute
“Well I’m 24,sorry to disappoint you” Blade said
“Oh wow,you are so handsome,nice meeting you Blade” Jubilee said
“You too” Blade nodded and they both made a toast before drinking
“Your turn Ice berg” Jubilee turned to Venom and he looked up
“Ice what?” Blade asked
“Ice berg,his face look like one” Jubilee smi-rked at Venom
“You don’t need to know my name…” Venom said and stood up
“Let’s go” He said to Blade at once and walked out
“What the h*ll is wrong with him?” Jubilee scoffed
“Just call him ice berg,bye” Blade winked at her and left
He met Venom in the car
“Why are you in such an hurry?” Blade asked
Venom ignored him and closed his eyes
Blade started the car and drove off immediately

COBRAS MOB**
Venom and Blade stepped down from the car and Blade faced him
“Goodnight” Venom muttered and walked away
“What’s with him again?” Blade shook his head and went his own way
“Welcome boss” Drake bowed as Venom showed up
Venom replied with a nod and made to enter
“Boss?” Drake called and Venom stopped
“Should I call Marissa?” Drake asked
“No” Venom replied and went in
**
Blade got to his doorstep and was surprised to see a body sleeping right there
“What the….” He stopped when he saw the person’s face,it’s Phoenix.
He bent down and checked to see if she’s breathing,that was when he smelt the smell of alcohol,she’s probably drunk that’s why she’s there.
He stood up and scoffed
He opened the door and went in,he sighed and turned back. He carried Phoenix and took her in,he went into the bedroom and dropped her on the bed and left the bedroom.
******
NEXT MORNING**
“Oh gosh” Phoenix yawned and stretched her arms
She smiled ignorantly
‘My room smell so nice this morning’ she thought and finally opened her eyes
She frowned when she saw the strange room,she looked around and suddenly gasped
‘Blade’s room? Why am I here??’ She hurried out of the bed
She wore her shoes quietly and tiptoed toward the door,when she heard no sound,she opened the door at once
“Ahh!” She screamed and fell on the floor when she met Blade in the living room
Blade puffed out the cigarette smoke and looked at her
Phoenix immediately stood up and arranged her hair
“Good morning…boss” She muttered and bowed,her long hair down
It’s actually the first time Blade is seeing her hair this way,it’s always in a ti-ght ponytail
Blade stood up and Phoenix moved back
“Are you trying to escape?” He asked
“I’m sorry” Phoenix mumbled and took her li-ps in
“Thank you for taking me in,I was…a little bit drunk” She added
“A little bit? Wow,just a little bit? So if you were so drunk,you might have just went to the guards house and slept there right?” Blade smiled and Phoenix looked up
“No…..”
“How would you know?” Blade cut her off
“I’m sorry,I won’t get drunk again,I promise” Phoenix said
Blade scoffed
“Leave” He said
Phoenix bowed one last time before running out,her hair flying after her
******
TRAINING FIELD**
“What’s with them?” Echo asked beside Athena as they both did the squats together
Chicago and Galaxy seems to be really happy this morning,they kept on talking and laughing as they trained together
“Who knows” Athena muttered
“They are probably up to something,I’m sure of it” Echo said
“Who cares” Athena muttered and Echo frowned
“What’s that about?” She asked and Athena faced her
“What do you mean?”
“What’s the two words about? Who knows,who cares,what’s that?” Echo asked
“I have nothing to say Echo” Athena said
“That’s not true,you always have things to say,but right now I only need your comment but you killed the vibes” Echo scoffed and moved away from her
Athena ignored it and continue with what she’s doing
“Hey Athena” Trace came over and Athena looked up
“Oh..hi Trace” She smiled shortly
Echo scoffed when she saw that,she grabbed her gun and walked away
******
VENOM’S OFFICE**
Venom seems to be busy,he was working on the laptop when suddenly the door opened without warning and Madam Zuna entered
“Venom” She called
“Just come back later” Venom muttered without looking up
“I need your help” Madam Zuna said
“What” Venom asked,still not looking up
“Marissa is missing” She said and Venom looked up
“What are you talking about?” Venom asked
“Since last night,actually I thought you might have called her last night,but this morning when I didn’t see her,I got worried and then one of the maids told me they saw the guards taking her away last night with for-ce” Madam Zuna explained
Venom removed his gla-sses
“I don’t know who those guards are working for,you might probably find out,please save her,I can’t ba-re it if something happens to her please” Madam Zuna said
Venom stood up and walked out of the office
He went straight to Lex’s apartment,the guards immediately opened the door for him and he entered
Lex was standing,staring at a frame on the wall. Venom looked at it and it’s a frame of his dad,Fallon.
“Isn’t it cool? I decided to make one” Lex said and Puff out heavy smokes from his pipe
Venom walked closer to him
“Where is she?” He asked
“Who?” Lex asked
“You know who I’m talking about” Venom replied
Lex faced him
“I don’t” he said and sat down
“Pedro’s daughter,I know it was you. Where is she?” Venom asked
“Me? How?? I can remember you were not in the clan last night,so how did you find out I took her? Who told you that?” Lex smi-rked
“Tell me where she is,I don’t want to believe you killed her.” Venom said
“What if I did?”
“You can’t,if anyone is going to do that,it should be me not you” Venom replied
“I might do it since it’s taking you too long to do that” Lex smiled
“Tell me where she is”
“I have no idea,you can go search for her. I don’t know where she is” Lex replied
Venom rolled his eyes and walked out
He immediately called some guards to search the whole clan
“Make sure you find her” Venom said
“Yes boss” They chorused
“Can I join them?” Blaze said from the back and Venom turned
“If you want” He replied and immediately Blaze joined the guards
TWO HOURS LATER
The guards together with Blaze came to Venom
“We can’t find her boss”
“Did you check everywhere??” Venom asked
“Yes boss,the whole clan” They replied
Venom and Blaze’s eyes met
“Leave” He said to them and everyone left except Blaze
“What are you waiting for?” Venom asked coldly
Blaze bowed slightly and walked away
Venom turned to the direction of Lex apartment
He got there and opened the door at once
“Are we doing this in a ha-rd way??” Venom asked and Lex smiled from his seat
He was about taking the gla-ss of wine on the table when Venom moved closer and threw the cu-p on the wall,the gla-ss broke into pieces
“I’m fuc-king asking you a question,where the h*ll did you keep her!!” Venom snapped angrily
Lex stood up at once and landed a punch on his face which bursted Venom’s li-ps
Venom looked at him
“You’re about making the same mistake Fallon made!!” Lex yelled
“Just like this,he never listened to me!! That girl is not just a girl,she’s an enemy and is supposed to be treated like one! How dare you treat her like she’s someone important?!! Your father died because he never listened to me!! He f*ll in love with Racheal and that was the beginning of his downfall,you are acting like a f**l already Venom,you should know by now that falling in love is not in the rule…….”
“I’m not in love with her…..”
“Fallon started this way too!!” Lex cut him off
“Protecting her,caring about a maid! Once she becomes your weakness,you know what will happen next,you should be focused on getting Marley and destroy the people who killed your parents not caring about Pedro’s daughter of all people!”
Venom swallowed and held the table ti-ghtly,his eyes looking red,his veins visible,he was looking so angry,the fact that Lex had to remind him of all these made his blood boil
“Stop acting like Michael,it doesn’t suite you. You’re different from the weak and soft boy whose mother was killed right in front of him and he couldn’t do anything…..”
“Stop…” Venom muttered,tears fighting it’s way out of his eyes
“I’m saying the fuc-king truth and you know that,if you were strong enough then,those bastards wouldn’t kill Rachael,you should think about what your mother went throu-gh….”
“Stop it!!!” Venom yelled and pushed the table in front of him away
Tears rolling down his eyes
“Take it or leave it,that’s the truth” Lex said
“Ahhhh!!!!!” Venom screamed and sat on the floor,his whole body shaking,
Lex smi-rked
exactly,he knew that’s his only weakness. His mother’s death
Blade rushed in
“Father,what the hell are you doing?!!” He yelled angrily
Lex roll his eyes
Blade bent in front of Venom who was still in tears
He immediately hug-ged him
“When you two are done,you should leave” Lex said
“It’s okay,you don’t have to listen to him” Blade said patting Venom’s back
“You and Fallon are just the same,acting weak when it comes to women” Lex said
“That’s enough!” Blade snapped
He helped Venom up after he was calm
“Just……let her go…this once” Venom said
“If you will promise to maintain the line and treat her like the trash she is,only that” Lex said
“I promise” Venom muttered
