Venom Rising

by VampDash


Milk or Malk?

“Hey Twilight, you got any malk?” Pinkie Pie asked as Twilight looked at her oddly.

“I don’t have any ‘malk’ but I have milk.” The unicorn said as she poured herself a glass of milk.

“But… That’s what she said.” Vinyl Scratch, Pinkie Pie’s other close friend said as she sat down next to Pinkie Pie.

“No, she’s saying it wrong. You’re saying ‘malk’ which sounds like some kind of disease, instead of the way EVERYPONY else says it… Which is milk. M-I-L-K.” Twilight explained, like she was talking to a grade schooler, as Pinkie and Vinyl began to try and fight back their laughter.

“Yeah like 2%.” Vinyl said as she nudged Pinkie Pie.

“Yep, whole malk!” The party planner said as Twilight growled a little.

“Okay say milkshake.”

“Milkshake.”

“Now say milk.”

“Malk.” Pinkie replied as Twilight facehoofed, before turning to Vinyl with a disbelieving look on her face.

“Are you hearing this?!” She asked frustratedly as the DJ silently snickered before responding.

“Yeah, the lady wants a glass of mulk!” Vinyl said as Twilight stared wide-eyed at both of them.

“MULK?!” The lavender unicorn said in utter shock as Vinyl jumped up on Twilight’s table and stared her in the face.

“IT IS PRONOUNCED MILK DUMB ASS!” Twilight shouted before she heard something loud from on top of the building the trio was in.

“TWILIGHT! POUR ME A GLASS OF MALK!” Pinkie yelled as Twilight backed away from the two.

“You stay right here and we’ll get RIGHT back into the discussion of Milk okay?” Twilight asked.

“Okay!” Pinkie said before Twilight lit up her horn to teleport to the rooftop.

“What was that about Pinks?” Vinyl asked.

“What was what?” Pinkie asked. Vinyl was about to start when she got a blank look on her face.

“Huh…. I don’t remember.”


“We’re here for your malk and/or mulk Twilight Sparkle!” Venom said as she loomed over Twilight, who just screamed… Not in fear, but in a surprising display of anger, as she began to wildly fire at Venom. Very large… Very fast…. Bolts of magic.

“HOLY CRAP!” Venom shouted as she tried to move only to get hit by a grand total of five magic blasts.

“YOU KNOW?! I WAS TRYING TO MAKE A PLAN WHERE THIS WOULD BE LESS PAINFUL BUT YOU KNOW WHAT?! BUCK IT! I AM TEARING THAT THING OFF YOU PIECE BY PIECE!” Twilight shouted as she readied and blasted a bolt that she rarely used. A sonic bolt. The blast hit Venom dead on and caused a high pitched sound that only dogs could hear.

“GAH! MAKE IT STOP! MAKE IT STOP!” Venom roared in pain as the symbiote lashed out before showing the pony underneath but only briefly.

“Rainbow Dash?” Twilight stopped when she saw the tell-tale rainbow mane under the goo for a split second. “No… of course it would be you. I’m sorry but I need that suit.” Twilight said as she readied another sonic spell.

“WHAT DO YOU THINK YOU’RE DOING VENOM?!” A voice called out as Venom looked up to see the all-too familiar form of Mare-Do-Well leaping at her. Suddenly Venom growled as the symbiote changed into a dark and distorted version of the other heroine.

“YOU VENOM! ME MARE-DO-WELL!” Venom said in a sort of broken vocabulary.

‘Whoa! Venom what the hay was that?!’

‘Me am hurt! Bad hurt cause brain hurt!’

‘So you mean that until the sound goes away you’re gonna talk like this?!’

‘Yes am!’

“ME AM SMASH!” The Venom clone of Mare-Do-Well roared as it tackled the original. Twilight just looked at them before readying a sound blast again and launched it at the two Mare-Do-Wells.

“GAH! CITIZEN I’M JUST TRYING TO HELP!” Mare-Do-Well shouted before Twilight bucked her to the side.

“Stay out of this Pinkie!” Twilight growled as she turned to the symbiote and began pulling it away from Dash. Before she could succeed she saw a flash on metal and the symbiote she was pulling on separated and became a small symbiote.

“Boys and girls of every age….” A voice sang out, as beautiful as a trained choirist.

“.... Wouldn’t you like to see something strange….” The voice sang out again, interrupting the struggle as the fighters began to really take notice of it.

“... Come with us and you will see….” They never noticed the being sneaking up behind them.

“.... This our town, of nightmares unseen…” The voice softly sang as Twilight and Mare-Do-Well fell over unconscious.

“Dash you okay?” The figure asked as Venom shambled around like a drunk sailor.

“We are Groot!” Venom said still dazed, before the figure slapped her upside the head and shook her.

“Better?”

“Um… y-yeah it’s better. If you don’t mind us asking… how did you knock out Twilight and Mare-Do-Well?” Venom asked before the figure blushed and stepped into the light. The figure had a armored appearance and orange clawed gloves. It’s back had brown unkempt feathers and it’s head was covered by a freaky Jack-O-Lantern face.

“Um…. don’t think of me differently but… Star Trot.” The figure said preparing to face the worst. Venom’s face peeled back to reveal Rainbow Dash who was just TRYING to contain her laughter… and failing amazingly.

“HA! Nerd, everypony knows Doctor Whooves is the best sci-fi show around!”
