Symbiote 0227: Farmer Bees

"Hey Laura," Kamala called out, resting her head on Laura's thigh, "You ever think about how we could go back?"

Laura shrugged while grabbing her book again and continuing to read from where she left off. Her other hand made its way to Kamala's stomach, occasionally tapping her fingers on the black material that covered her.

"Aren't we done?" Kamala asked while looking into Laura's eyes that were focused on the book. "Why are you still reading that story?"

Laura's gaze moved lower, meeting Kamala's eyes as she gave a light smile before her eyes returned to focus on the book. Kamala was about to say something but Laura's hand started trailing higher, leaving a ticklish sensation wherever her fingers brushed before eventually reaching her chest.

"Nn~" Kamala mewled and nestled her face into Laura's stomach, her fists balled up as a sense of heat pervaded throughout her body due to Laura's touch. There was no need for words to be exchanged between the two after all the time they had already spent together.

…

Their days continued passing uneventfully with a mixture of leisure and training where they would enjoy each other's company and go out to train and kill abominations in the meantime. It didn't take long for Kamala to end up surpassing Laura when it came to killing abominations. With her powers being far more versatile than Laura's healing factor and claws, she was an optimal person to deal with multiple enemies that were much harder to kill than usual.

It wasn't that she was suddenly a better combatant than Laura who had trained for her whole life — In a one-to-one match, Laura would sweep the floor with Kamala most of the time. It was in times when dealing with multiple enemies with troublesome regenerations that Kamala's powers were more useful since she could just focus her strength in her palms and crush the troublesome abominations, allowing Apex to devour them.

Laura's role in their fights was more tactical now than combative. She would make sure that Kamala was able to quickly and efficiently deal with the enemies while she kept them occupied. Their teamwork had evolved flawlessly as time had passed, allowing them to now deal with even stronger abominations.

One day, Laura and Kamala were enjoying their time as usual in the bunker after waking up completely refreshed. Kamala was eating Laura out in the living room while trapped tightly in between her partner's legs. It was hard for her to even breathe as her face was tightly pressed against Laura's crotch.

In the middle of their fluffy atmosphere, Laura's eyes opened with a sense of urgency as all her arousal was suppressed, "We have to go." She said, freeing Kamala and standing up. Moments later, Apex had suited both her and Kamala up.

As Laura approached the exit, Kamala was still confused. With Laura's juices still on her chin and lips, she asked, "What's going on, Laura?"

"We need to kill abominations," Laura said, grabbing Kamala and pulling her out of the exit door without elaborating.

Feeling the sense of urgency in Laura's tone, Kamala furrowed her brows but didn't comment. She took a breath and mentally prepared herself for the coming fight.

Unfortunately for her, it was impossible for her to prepare herself for what was about to come. Ascending the stairs to the main door of the bunker, Kamala found her breath getting stuck in her throat as a chill went down her spine before Laura even opened the main door. It was as if the air itself had a malevolent aura that made Laura's hair stand on edge.

When the door finally opened, a growl entered Kamala's ear as her eyes honed in at the source. A single, weak abomination that was standing some ways away from the door. However, that wasn't the source of her unease. It was the identical silhouettes all around it, as far as she could see behind it that gave her that eerie unease, "How many …" She questioned Laura.

"Too many," Laura's face had a serious frown as she quickly closed the door behind herself and Kamala, "Apex will support us, we have to clear them all."

"Its protection is good, but far from enough, Laura," Kamala said. "We've only strengthened it to the point of barely tanking a couple of the weaker attacks without letting us get harmed. We have to run—"

"Trust Apex." Laura didn't let Kamala continue her triage, "Now come. We must battle." Laura was the first to jump head first into the fray of the abominations, grabbing their attention as Kamala groaned but followed along nonetheless. Laura's fist slash enraged the foremost abomination while Kamala's hand came from the side and crushed it in her palm.

Laura was already upon the next one, distracting it so that Kamala could suppress it just enough to allow Apex to devour it. At that moment, two abominations came up to Kamala while three were upon Laura, the duo's gazes met for a split second before Kamala's arms extended out to punch two of the grunts that were after Laura who planted her feet on the ground and grasped the tether that connected the two of them together. Their eyes met for another split second as Laura yanked Kamala toward herself and ducked.

Kamala's hands grabbed the two abominations as Laura made her fly toward the third whom she planted under her foot. With Laura's assailants dealt with, the two abominations that were charging toward Kamala found themselves face to face with Laura who smiled cruelly and stabbed her claws through both of their skulls, stopping them mid-charge as Alex quickly devoured them. Before they could even take a calm breath, the duo had another group of abominations upon them as they got to make quick work of them.

Meanwhile, all throughout the duo's fights, Alex had full autonomy over the suits — instead of the subconscious instincts that he had embedded in the suits to work with Laura and Kamala. He was currently wantonly using Chaos Magic in order to pull as many manageable abominations as he could toward Laura and Kamala. He and Jane had already escaped from the Soul Stone prison cell and he was burning through his EP at a rapid pace.

Not wanting to risk being out of EP, he had already put up his two farmer bees to gather EP for him at a monstrous pace. As for things like fatigue and injuries; with Alex in active control over their suits, Laura and Kamala wouldn't even get a scratch unless it was the Leader Class abominations that attacked them. The only thing that was holding back their EP gathering was that they didn't have the kind of firepower that could quickly wipe out a large number of abominations.

'I hope this is sufficient, otherwise, I'll just call in Wanda to help out.'

Alex didn't plan to risk running out of EP when he was using an Infinity Stone. Not only would it hurt him like a bitch, it would also hurt everyone that he was connected to like a bitch; in varying degrees according to how deeply they were connected to him.

'Seriously … I need to up my Cosmic Energy game by a notch.'
