During the night, Will and Kate talk, and Sam searches for car parts and works to recover. There's a building on the waterfront in San Francisco, it used to be a fancy restaurant now its just a ruin.

At the moment, its a place to rest with smoke coming out of its chimney while inside Sam, Kate and Will take turns resting and recovering. Alcatraz is quiet across the water and Winter still lays over the city by the Bay.

There's another snarl at the mention of Spider-man, but he soon quiets it as he continues. "We did not come after anyone-we dropped in only to find out why the city is as it is."

Sam is given a bit of annoyed look-he likes his introductions!-and then he glances to Will, with a slight nod. "We find helping the innocents here more important than fighting you. Besides, we weren't the ones who threatened first."

Though he privately doubts Sam and Will could take him down.

"He is a villain. Listed in the rogue's gallery, and one of the worst. Vision's got a file on them all, including him."

Kate still hasn't lowered her bow, "You? Helping innocents? What would

you

know about that?"

"You know, 'villain' is pretty subjective, really. I was considered a villain in some worlds." Chirpily. "Besides, Venom knows lots about helping innocents, I'm sure. And I'm certain he doesn't even eat their heads."

Beat.

"Do you?"

"Kate, in our own way, we're all outlaws an 'ere at the end o'the world, canna 'urt to see what 'e's willin' to do."

His hand is staying on her shoulder, with how broken she was last night, then this change, he's worrying a lot.

Venom goes back to glaring at Kate. "You underestimate us. We were guarding the innocents in our San Francisco before we arrived here. We can do more than just chase Spider-man."

He glances to Sam at the question. "We think that would be rather counterproductive."

"You're a killer, I don't believe you."

The bow started to shake a little.

"Can't be trusted. He could double cross us all to her."

"Will's a killer. So am I." Sam points out. "We have to at least give him a chance, right?"

"Aye, Kate, please just try an if 'e tries anythin' there are three o'us an one o''im. Also 'fore ye woke up found ye some clothes at a store nearby."

There's a bag from a random store near where she woke up. He wanted to make it something nice for her but now it feels like just an add on and rubs her shoulder again.

"Our only interest in this Queen is eating her brains, not double-crossing anyone." His eyepatches narrow again. "And we would appreciate it if everyone would stop planning ways to attack us. We haven't done anything."

He's just your friendly neighborhood human-symbiote combo, trying to help! Really!

Kate finally lowered the bow.

"Thank you," she quietly said to Will.

She then added to Venom bluntly, "Fine. Bon appetit. Hope you don't choke on them."

She then went to get the clothes, since she hadn't noticed in the rush, but added to Will, "Pass it on to Sam, he tries anything? Leave him with her. They deserve each other." And then headed off to get change, and likely to burn the fairy dress she was wearing under the jacket.

"See? She likes you! She doesn't want you to choke!" Sam grins at Venom.

Will's grin is a little strained but there,

"Aye, so what are we goin' to do then?"

Venom snorts-if was capable of rolling his eyepatches, he'd do it. "We appreciate the sentiment, but we doubt it will be a problem."

He shrugs a bit as he looks at Will. "It seems the two of you have a better idea of the situation then we do."

"We're a bit confused in general, really." Sam shrugs.

"Still need to fix up the car an e'en if we did wish to attack the Queen 'ave na way to get 'cross the water."

"No boats around the bay? Or perhaps there's some way to lure her out..."

"The bay may be frozen again, by now." Sam shrugs. "But that'd mean that she's probably coming for us."

Will's hand rests on his sword and he looks to where Kate went to change,

"Be good to see 'er dead but dinna think we're ready to fight just yet."

Venom's head tilts slightly as he listens. "What else should we know about this Queen? Neither of you has explained much about her."

In the meantime, somewhere in the ruins was a small BOOM, and a quick flash of blue fire might be seen.

Kate then approached, with her bow at her side, the silver sword strapped in a makeshift scabbard, and quiver on her back, dressed in the found clothes.

Catching Venom's remark, she simply said, "She's worse than you. Good enough?"

"Impressive little explosion you had there." Sam remarks, amusedly. "She's, er, sorta cold. And pale. And really powerful."

"Think iron 'urts 'er but that's all we've found so far."

Will ends up a little closer to Kate, he knows she can handle herself but she's not getting hurt again if he has any say in it.

Venom starts a bit at the fire, then settles back down, looking to Will. "We're sure our teeth will her as badly, if not worse."

Overconfident? Perhaps.

Wry look over at Sam, "Thanks, figured to have a little bonfire to celebrate."

She then added in a cold voice, remaining watchful of Venom, and keeping close to Will and Sam, "Take out her underlings first, it hurts her. Probably linked to them."

"She's not so fond of fire, either." Sam says, thoughtfully. "Managed to get the upper hand for a few minutes by using fire. Didn't keep her on the back foot for long, but 's something, right?"
