Marvel: I'm a Symbiote

Symbiote 0242: Chaos Dimension

The next day, Wanda went to Kamar Taj. Alex orchestrated the timeline such that she ran into Natasha, Steve, and Tony whom Wong was bidding farewell to. What followed was Wanda telling everyone that she would be going off-world for a while to do some important work, though the constant eye-rolls and side-eyed scoffs that Wong got from Wanda left everyone confused, including Wong, who thought that he had given Wanda a good solution for now.

None of them knew that Wanda’s actions came from her annoyance at how she couldn’t feel Alex as closely anymore. And she blamed Wong — who gave that ritual to Alex. She didn’t care if it was for her own good or not.

Once the three guests departed, Wanda asked Wong, “Can you open the portal to the Chaos Dimension?” She asked him. “I would rather get this over with as soon as possible.”

“At once,” Wong nodded as he channeled Eldrich Energy into his Sling Ring. Sparks appeared mid-air as the portal started to form, taking much longer than the normal portal. Its formation was so slow that Wanda started impatiently tapping her foot on the ground, barely stopping herself from gritting her teeth alongside it.

“It’s done,” Wong wiped a bead of sweat from his forehead before turning to Wanda, only to be left in a confused state once again. The expression on her face seemed to be the opposite of what he was expecting. Instead of gratitude, she angrily grunted at him before leaping into the portal.

“Maybe it is her time of the month or something,” The new Sorcerer Supreme shook his head in defeat, “It’s times like these when I truly appreciate having taken up monkhood.”

…

Entering the Chaos Dimension itself was a unique experience for Wanda. It was one of the few places where she felt as if she was at home.

[We can get rid of the suppression now, right?] Wanda asked excitedly. [I feel like I’m bursting with power.]

[Just don’t explode with energy. You’re on your home turf without any dimensional ruler …]

Wanda didn’t pay a lot of attention to his words, or she would’ve asked about the absence of the dimensional ruler that Wong failed to mention to her. She was hurrying Alex to remove the suppression over her.

There was a tiny cracking sound in the red-tinted void of the Chaos Dimension before Wanda’s energy exploded outward, destroying all aspects of the suppression. A drawn, comforted sigh escaped the redhead’s lips as she smiled, “I can finally feel you …”

“You’re being a little dramatic, but whatever,” Alex appeared beside her and spoke. She widened her eyes before throwing herself at him.

“You have no idea how lonely I felt when I couldn’t feel you as closely as usual,” Wanda said. “It’s like I was permanently homesick.”

Alex shook his head, wrapping an arm around Wanda, “Just wait until I bond with your organs and nervous system. You won’t even need to rely on your powers to feel connected to me at that point.”

“I asked you to do it yesterday. You refused,” She pouted.

“And I’m still going to refuse,” Alex said. “It’s going to be soon, though. Don’t worry about it.”

“It’s like you’re talking about proposing marriage to me …” Wanda said with a laugh. “I keep pushing you to propose and you keep delaying it for one reason or another.”

“I like to believe our bond runs deeper than marriage,” Alex said, kissing Wanda’s lips. “After all, we’re permanently bonded together. And for far longer than the life of a normal human.”

“I’m still not going to be immortal after you finish the bonding process?” Wanda looked at him and asked.

“Virtually immortal,” Alex answered. “Just like me. There are still things that can kill me, and by extension, you. But if we’re talking about lifespan, there’s no limit.”

Wanda’s reply was interrupted by a stirring in the void around them. Moments later, a crack appeared right beside Wanda as a claw came out of it and slashed at her.

“Your outburst seems to have brought us company.”

Snorting, she created a red barrier that intercepted the surprise attack. The claw sunk into the barrier and a pained screech sounded out as the claw was ripped off from its source. Wanda’s magical barrier fizzled out after disintegrating the claw that was torn away from what should be the limb of a bestial creature.

Following a roar, another crack appeared in the dimension’s space right beside Alex as the claw came out of it, attacking Alex instead. He just smiled and allowed the claw to make contact with him, slashing his waist. Instead of blood, black slime oozed out of Alex, encroaching along the limb of the resident of the dimension. The beast seemed infuriated and Alex sensed multiple cracks forming around both himself and Wanda. They didn’t even need to make eye contact to work in conjunction as Wanda formed multiple identical barriers around half of the new cracks while Alex sent his tentacles at the other half.

They had decimated a total of thirty claws but the roars seemed to be from a singular source, allowing Alex and Wanda to identify their assailant as a single attacker instead of a hoard of beasts. Just as the last claw was taken care of, Wanda closed her eyes and a wave of Chaos Energy escaped her, intensifying the red tint of the dimension momentarily as her pulse passed all around her.

The following roar seemed even more infuriated and more cracks appeared all around Wanda, attempting to interrupt her concentration. Instead of the expected beast claws, the cracks started glowing, giving Alex the idea that they were charging to fire beams of energy at Wanda.

The targetted woman, on the other hand, didn’t even flinch as the overly showy presence of the charging energy blasts got stronger. She left them completely to Alex to manage, trusting him to protect her. And protect her he did, the moment the beams fired at Wanda, they were met by Alex, who created tendrils that ended in a flat shield right in front of each crack. Alex’s black body instantly pulsated with the red of Chaos when those beams met him, but with his high affinity for Chaos Energy and connection with Wanda, he was able to forcefully take control of the violent energy and use it to fuel his reserves of Chaos energy. Not that he needed it, considering Wanda, who was like a nuclear reactor when it came to providing him with Chaos Energy.

As the beams died down, Wanda’s eyes opened with a red glow, “Found you.” She extended her arm forward and twisted it, warping the dimension itself. Moments later, an eldrich horror seemed to be thrown into the main plane out of nowhere as it roared in pain.

‘How peculiar …’ Alex examined the creature that seemed to have a single multi-pupil eye at the core of its existence. Instead of white, it was the crimson of Chaos while the pupils all showed a blue color. He couldn’t help but feel that it shared certain visual similarities with the Eldrich Leader Class abominations on Earth-Z. ‘Maybe there’s more to the abominations than just radiation and biological mutations …’

Shaking his head, he pulled himself out of his thoughts as Wanda didn’t even bother to question the creature before crushing it under the sheer weight of her energy. She tightened her palm into a fist as a horrible crunching sound filled the surroundings.

“I feel amazing!” Wanda said excitedly to Alex, not caring about the floating carcass of the beast that she’d just killed. “I’m so much stronger here …”

“We could permanently stay here,” Alex offered. “You could become the new dimensional ruler.”

“Definitely not,” She frowned. “Although I feel powerful here, I would much rather spend my time in our sanctum, the construction of which I’m meticulously supervising. Hell, I even love the castle in Wakanda. I don’t want to stay long-term in this dark and dreary place.”

“I understand,” He nodded. “But you should be ready for the possibility. In case the Sorcerer Supreme authority still doesn’t accept you after we take over the brand, then you will essentially be banished from Earth.”

“I’m going to kill that fucking monk Wong!” Wanda said aggressively.

“It isn’t his fault really —“ Alex started.

“It is,” Wanda protested, “If he never suggested that I take over the Sorcerer Supreme mantle, none of this would’ve happened. Instead of floating in his red void, I would’ve instead been getting breakfast in bed where you fed me before we had sex. I was living the perfect life before Wong threw a wrench into it.”

“You know …” Alex decided to distract Wanda from directing all her hate to Wong. “I’ve never had sex in zero gravity. Wanna try?”

His offer worked wonders for Wanda who was already feeling pent up after not having had any sex for the past two days. “Sex in zero-gravity, you say …” She raised a brow, the aggressive expression still there, but her eyes had a whole different story to tell, full of interest and intrigue toward Alex’s suggestion. “I would love to, but we have more company …” Wanda said, suddenly annoyed that more inhabitants of this dimension were interrupting her alone time with Alex.
