Ranma and Britanny let out exasperated sighs at this bad timing. Well, inwardly they were also half relieved, but... anyhow, best to see what Gina had there.
"So, whatcha got?"
"Well, that thing there is some sort of alien symbiote which is formed from semi-protoplasmic shape changing type goo, right? It bonds with it's owner, and gives him incredible abilities? Well... I have something that seems to do the same thing! It extremely different, but maybe that's just cause it's in it's protoplasmic state or something. At the moment, it just looks like some black ooze that can change it's shape and stuff, but maybe that's cause it's not attached to any lifeform. It's seems pretty docile because of that, rather placid and lifeless. Under sircumstances it's extremely strong and can exert tremendous force, but at the moment plain glass is containing it. Fascinatin, huh? Just look at it!"
Ranma held up the container holding the alien symbiote, "Actuall,y it looks nothing like mine in it's original form. Where'd you get this?"
"You ever heard of Spider-Man? Well, he thought that this was just a new suit for a long long time, until he found out that it was a whole life form one day. He somehow forced it off, and Reed Richards captured it. After some prelimanry tests he made were inconclusive, he handed it to us for further tests and safekeeping. Anyhow, this thing is supposed to have a vulnerability to fire, sonics, and, here's the important bit, it can be willed about by it's owner. I assume you don't want us to test out the sonic or fire part by blasting you and that thing you've got on, so why don't you try willing it off?"
" 'kay" And the Guyver slid back into subspace, effortlessly, surprising the heck out of Ranma.
In fact, it surprised him so much that he dropped the container holding the Venom symbiote on the ground, cracking the glass.
Hungry, desperately needing to bond, the symbiote sensed that it was free, and a most WONDERFUL host was right next to it. Tendrils flailing, it wrapped itself around Ranma, who was still recovering from his changeover and surprise. As his form was fully swallowed up by the black suit, Ranma just muttered out, "Awfully familiar..." before being bonded.
********
Aftermath:
"Hey, this thing seems to be obeying my commands, it enchances my strength, speed, gives me these tentacle things and webbing, and only appears if I want it to, on whatever body part I want it to, so it's concealable, even when I want to use some abilities! ... why in the world did Spider-man want to get rid of this thing?"
"A moot point, since from what I can tell, YOU won't be able to get rid of it. It's bonded to you completely now, unlike with Spider-man. Maybe it's desperation sped up the process."
"mmm. Wonder how this and the other suit affect each other?"
Good question! So what's going to happen when Ranma summons the Guyver??? (when he figures out how). Will the two symbiotes compete? Coexist? Merge into one? Have weird side effects?
