Symbiote 0242: Chaos DinsionThe next day, Wanda went to Kamar Taj. Alex orchestrated the tiline 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 so 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 ca from her annoyance at how she couldn’t feel Alex as closely anymore. And she blad 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 Dinsion?” 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 seed 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 ti of the month or sothing,” The new Sorcerer Supre shook his head in defeat, “It’s tis like these when I truly appreciate having taken up monkhood.”
…
Entering the Chaos Dinsion itself was a unique experience for Wanda. It was one of the few places where she felt as if she was at ho.
[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 ho turf without any dinsional ruler …]
Wanda didn’t pay a lot of attention to his words, or she would’ve asked about the absence of the dinsional ruler that Wong failed to ntion 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 Dinsion 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 hosick.”
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 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 …” 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 . There are still things that can kill , 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. Monts later, a crack appeared right beside Wanda as a claw ca 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 dinsion’s space right beside Alex as the claw ca 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 sli oozed out of Alex, encroaching along the limb of the resident of the dinsion. The beast seed 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 ford 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 seed 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 dinsion montarily as her pulse passed all around her.
The following roar seed 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 mont the beams fired at Wanda, they were t 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 t 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 ca 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 dinsion itself. Monts later, an eldrich horror seed to be thrown into the main plane out of nowhere as it roared in pain.
‘How peculiar …’ Alex examined the creature that seed 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 beco the new dinsional ruler.”
“Definitely not,” She frowned. “Although I feel powerful here, I would much rather spend my ti in our sanctum, the construction of which I’m ticulously 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 Supre 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 Supre 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 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 dinsion were interrupting her alone ti with Alex.
