The room snapped back into focus,
and I could feel Juktha inside of my brain, my body. Her power coursed through
me, and I felt almost invincible.
When I glanced at the young woman
being held by Venom I could see that her face was sweaty and flush. She was
concentrating.
“Did it work?” She whimpered.
I nodded.
“Good.” She glanced at Venom. “Now
you and Juktha can kill this son of a bitch.”
Venom hissed and threw the girl
towards us.
“Damn it,” he yelled, “the little
bitch was holding out on me. Well, ssssshe can die like the rest of you.”
Then he started slithering towards
us. His body moved smoothly across the floor, weaving in and out between the
shafts of light. What was I supposed to do? I had the power, I just… well, I
didn’t know how to use it.
“Raise your hand,” Juktha said. Her
voice seemed like a pleasant echo in my brain. “Raise your hand and focus. I’ll
do the rest.”
I did as she told me, and focused
my mind on Venom.
That was when my palm began to
glow.
