With the halt in the growth of the vampire flame Josh had to with the issues created when this aspect of his soul was growing far to big. The whole room is a mess with ith dirt and debris everywhere, altering the room to accommodate the fire Josh wanted an easy way to monitor everything going on, he didn't want to deal with the fragmented knowledge of each flame directly.
Josh noticed a strange phenomenon that gave him a way to make up for it, he saw as several of the flames resonated with each other. Josh got the idea to contain the fires in his soul like the simbiote does he waned to create categories like shelves for his library to sort any and all information.
As Josh worked to change how all the flames interacted with each other he realized that he had far more control over everything than he thought he changed the form his soul took turning's them into symbols he could easily see in his soul. Looking into his soul he easily saw what caused what is now a vampire sigl to grow so fast .
His current soul was made into a giant mirror with black glass it looked like an obsidian mirror covered in clear fire. The mirror contained 7 signs on it representing a fires that used to be scattered around the room there were a pair of fangs representing vampires, a giant X for his X gene, a crystal for the inhuman gene and a syringe for the lizard, a spider for the spiders, a moon the moon represents the dark force from the symbiotes and their connection to knull alongside the dark magic keeping the vampires alive from the dark hold and a sun representing the light force from his former mutant ability passify.
His realm was became far more complex in design as more people entered the hive. Josh felt as more codex's were appearing in the hive at first it was just 3 normal people that they turned while hunting, looking at where they were through Donnas senses he heard as she was having a conversation with several people.
"Hey Donna What's the meeting about we promised to stay seperated while we try to fidgure out how to deal with the life foundation.They have recently been asking more about our compatibility with the seeds, they want us to give up the seeds so that it can be used by the higher ups. I heard that the others died during the extraction process we need to find a way to deal with the Life foundation before they become impatient ."
Josh immediately understood who she was talking to, Donna was having a meeting with her current team. 'Me and scream found a way to deal with the life foundation we became a vampire so far we're far stronger and faster then we were before when we were still human. So far blood isn't that bad to drink, we need to have a spar to see by how much I've grown so let's rent a gym to spar.'
Josh heard as they settled everything for the sparing match the following day, the life foundation wanted to supervise the exercise to gather information about their condition, and the symbiotes Donna wanted to pass her new vampire abilities on to the symbiote becoming even more compatible with her. Josh heard as she asked 'I recently found out that the seeds aren't just alive their sentient. After becoming a a vampire I can gain the blessing of the collector if I can collect unique items or living things and grant them as a sacrifice.'
Lesty said "are you sure you aren't summoning a demon or something, you are literally giving sacrifices to an unknown being for a blessing. I can't think of a single time that something like that went well." While Donna was still chatting she got a individual message from one of her teammates Lesty Gastneria she is a goth with iconic black hair and eyeshadow.
Looking at what Lesty was privately texting her she read "Girl to girl I'll recommend you have one of the boys test it incase it's a trap." While she wasn't on good terms with the lady it was nice to see someone other than scream cared.
Josh looking into what Marrie was doing was excited because he watched as she was offering a dying business man the opportunity to become a vampire under her. *With everything working out well with the vampires so far I need to continue growing my influence in other ways. Vampires only work in the Long Run because it takes way to long to deal with the vampire's transformation, taking roughly a whole 3 days for the transformation to be complete and that's going to need the guidance of an already established vampire if it wants to actually stay alive.
Dealing with vampires are relatively easy for any powerd individual or vampire hunter. The best thing I have on deck right now is the symbiotes ability for replication through dismembered parts while my current regeneration could definitely regrow limbs the time it would take for me to heal is undetermined so the best limbs to sacrifice to make the clones are definitely my fingers since that or my toes would definitely heal faster than a hand or arm.
The best thing i can do is to explore different ways my abilities can be used. So far of all the abilities I've collected so far some are bound to be compatible like the several ways my body can heal itself currently like my enhanced regeneration from the lizard serum and my partial vampirism or my ability to regenerate by becoming a composite of webbing from my spider powers. As long as enough of my physical body is left it should come back easy enough.
It's strange how recently I haven't been needing to eat as much as I should be it's the other way around. Normally as a persons power grows their need for consumption does as well but recently my consumption instead of increasing has been declining. So far after the hives creation my need to eat has slowly been declining, it must also be because of how many people I'm connected to that soon I may no longer need to eat at all.
It seems that as more people enter the hive my power will only grow, and so will my collection as a great man once said "If something truly remembered it never ends." A quote form trazyn the infinite, a collector I could only admire for his vast collection. He was well known for having collected everything unique in the world from knowledge to species to even whole battlefields people and all*
Deciding that the best thing he could do with his time is to begin messing around with his abilities pushing his limit. After letting out a sigh Josh got several clean containers to experiment with separating clones from himself.
After putting the containers down infront of himself he cut off a single finger placing it inside the container in an attempt to see what whould become of his left over parts. Josh looked at his hand watching as it regrew infront of his eyes, he was austounded by the ease in witch it happened he didn't feel a thing.
Josh watched as he wiggled his still moving his finger, josh was surprised that he could still able to remotely control the finger. Decideding to test the limits of what he could do he easily regrew the finger only feeling a slight tiredness after the finger regrew, josh decided to test what he could do with his newly severed finger.
Easily feeling his connection to the finger he tried to grow a clone of himself with the finger, forcing the finger to grow it was able to recreate a arm before he felt himself becoming hungry again. Deciding that the arm was enough Josh felt his connection to his arm forcing his will onto the arm.
Josh watched as the arm degraded leaving several black blobs, he felt the new symbiotes that used to be his arm. The symbiotes we're like himself he could feel his will directly inside them, deciding that he needed far more codex's than were feasible by vampires alone he let them go aiming to transfer hosts as soon and as often as possible collecting genetic backups of as many people as possible.
* with being able to so easily produce symbiotes means that I can start directly targeting people of importance I need a way to get my hands on oscorps cloning research, being able to easily clone people of interest would make collection far easier being able to clone the rare genetic material or deceased individuals.
It would cover my weakness in only being able to get living being into the hive. With the cloning technology I can directly clone anyone I want into the hive, while it can help I am still limited by distance I can only go so far, so the best solution is to be everywhere.
I can tell that it's early in the series since Spider-Man has only been around for a few months, so most of his villains haven't been created yet if I spread the simbiotes I'll definitely be able to get more done now than If I were to wait. Since I was able to grow and transmute anything directly connected to myself and alter everything connected to me I could test what affects taking my blood directly would cause, my main body the hive contains contains many contradictory powers like the light and dark force from my dimension.
Recently as my mutant power recovered I had easily felt the change it felt like finding out that my ability was better than I ever thought it could be. The light force in marvel represents healing and hope being connected to the light force allows a person to make and emit light constructs alongside healing and purification. It seems like my mutant ability connects me with a larger force like Cyclops punch dimension or magiks connection to limbo
The dark force like the light force is connected to the dark force dimension it is a dimension a of almost complete darkness that consumes any and all light, it forces people in contact with it to lose their minds.Lots of powers In marvel can be derived of the dark force that are similar to the light force like healing others and amplifying the darkness around an area, making constructs and teleportation, The dark force can engulf people making them making them go insane if engulfed for to long.
Conterary to what people think there is live in the dark force the are demons that feed on light or the light of people, those connected to the dark force like cloak can teleport to wherever he wants through the dark dimension without the issue of madness as long as he consumes light. Cloak can make release a gaseous substance that can consume anything into itself.
The light forces can be used to make constructs that absorb life and vitality alongside healing physical and spiritual wounds like trauma or expelling foreign objects. The light force can produce light that shields itself from beings from the dark dimension, dagger can see the hopes of those she touches with her light she produces so much energy that if she didn't offload the light she could blow up.*
Josh sighed 'since the light force came from my mutant ability I should be fine since my mutant ability never directly used the light force before recently.' Using the light force Josh made his room a bright star in the sky mimicking the sun. 'Altering this space is becoming far easier.' He further altered the land, the world twisted and tuned with his thoughts encasing he room he was currently in in layers of shadows following with light the room looked like a sun that he rose into the sky.
Of the several rooms in the he turned them into different realms with his room hidden in the sun covered in both light and darkness. *I separated the hive into two distinct biomes with the room containing the vampires souls becoming a dark biome with it staying dimly lit only lit up by small stars sprinkled in the sky.
Separating ecosystems would make sorting out everything far easier in dealing with unique environments and species. I created several more smaller rooms inside the sun to collect and hold anything of worth, before letting the animals settle in the new biome I roughed up the terrain to a alow for the animals to easily find a location to settle, I want to collect a few more human souls into the hive.*
with light shining down like the sun to the fog covering the land the area containing the animals present became rough and rocky with no plant life he easily decided that he needed more plant life.
Turning around Josh was back in his library in the sky finding himself infront of the mirror he felt out for the symbiotes he's released his mental energy seeing where several of the symbiotes were located.
Linking up to the symbiotes spread around he easily noticed' four of my six simbiotes found a host already. Using my knowledge of marvels plots I decided that the first person I'll intentionally target is Jamie madrox, Jamie is a mutant changling, a mutant from birth like night crawler his ability's is the ability to duplicate himself when injured. Since he has no formal training it would be a good warmup, it would alow me to try using the dark force to teleport into different places.
Teleportation though the dark force uses intent to locate where you want to go be it people or places throughout intent alone, being unbound by even the universe. As long as I focus I should be able to make it to to Jamie, I'll send a simbiotes directly through to him to se if it's feasible for what I have planned for later.'
