Light Kisses

While leaving Z-City and going back to his house, Jack is trying to comprehend Genus's memories, and he must admit, there are a lot of amazing things that Genus had done, not that he cared as most of them either had side-effects or isn't that useful for him

The immortality that Genus gained is really mind blowing, from his memories, Jack can conclude that there are no side-effects what so ever if tried to he do it to himself but the problem is that Genus had only researched how to gain immortality on himself, normal humans

Jack speculate that if he tried using the method Genus use, at most his life span will increase by 30 years as a normal human and him have different cell structure, the stronger the cell, the harder to enhance it, meaning what Genus actually achieve is Pseudo-Immortality, if he went past what a normal human should be, his life span will drastically decrease.

'Well, more 30 years with Lily!' Jack thought with a happy face on his Venom body.

30 Minutes Later, Jack transformed back into his Human body and went up to his apartment's rooftop and when he got there, he saw a deflated man stuck on a black web, he looked at Jack with lifeless eyes and menacingly glared at him, the man is Hellfire Flame

Jack went in front of him and removed the webbing from Hellfire's mouth and what greeted him is a surprise attack.

Hellfire ripped apart Jack's webbing and launch a kick to Jack's stomach causing Jack to cough for a while but Hellfire did not stop there.

Hellfire leaped up to jack and grabbed both of his arms while smashing his knee onto Jack's head, putting it to the ground, it left a crater as twice as big as Jack's face.

Jack felt a massive headache as his head got kneed, he tried to get up but Hellfire's barrage of attack didn't stop, he kept punching Jack's face and body, leaving no openings. Jack was enraged!

While hellfire is still beating Jack up, he suddenly felt a something pierced his body and just like that, he was dead before he even knew it.

Jack had manifested tons of long spike from his back, launching it into Hellfire's body. piercing it a hundred times, leaving many holes on his body, but even if he was dead, Jack didn't stop there, he kept manifesting spikes to pierce every single part of Hellfire's body into a small pulp.

He was enjoying the moment, he was feeling elated, the pain he had received had been repaid with a ton of interest!

Jack finished it off by transforming into venom and eating all of hellfire's remain, feeling the savory flavor of his strong body, Jack felt even better, eating stronger humans it like eating more expensive beef, the harder is it to get, the better it taste.

Finished with his unexpected meal, he transformed back into Venom and sighed about 2 things. 1 is that he now know how easy it is to sneak attack on him and possibly kill him, how he is not as strong as he thinks he is, while the other is that he had lost a good source of meat, while eating it is enjoyful, he could get more of them faster and easier if he knew where they came from, the Ninja Village. While Sora's memories have a recollection of it, Jack is sure that the place had been Living on is not the real ninja village, not the HQ at least, there are no really strong guys where Sora lived.

As for the loss of a good host, Jack decided not to rely on the host's body power and just increase his own, for better or for worse. Besides, he will be training his body with Lily anyway.

Jack became Venom and healed most of his injuries but not all of them can be recovered in a short amount of time, even with Venom and Axolotl [He get this by absorbing an Axolotl Monster] regenerative powers so he left them to recover on their own after 30 minutes since he want to get some sleep, if he's alone he can sleep in Venom state but with Lily? Fat chance.

Jack came back into his house and changed his clothes into his sleeping clothes, his face still got some bruises here and there while his back is still aching but he didn't care, he saw his little Lily sleeping on his bed and smiled, all the exhausted feelings he got vanished just with her presence alone.

Jack found her sleeping face really cute, she was sleeping curled up like a ball of fluffiness, Jack was almost, almost tempted to just hug the fluffy girl but he restrained himself.

While seeing her pretty figure Jack noticed something, her clothes was lifted up, revealing her little stomach and on there Jack could see a scar, a pretty big one at that, it goes from her waist to her belly button and almost reached the other side of the waist.

Jack went up to her and started touching the scar, he was sad, he knew that Lily got the scar from the Centipede that almost ate her, He once again felt rage but soon it changed into determination.

Jack caress her scarred belly slowly, he will use this to remind him of his failure on protecting Lily, He knew he is not at fault but he will shift the blame on him anyway, if anything happens to Lily no matter who or what that cause it, he will blame his incapabilities on protecting her, no matter how small it is.

Jack fixed his posture, he lied down while his face is facing Lily's, he is taller than her by about 20 centimeter so he needs to tilt his head a bit to really look lily on the face, he can't hold it back anymore and gave her a quick kiss on her forehead and smiled at the sleeping beauty, he then grabbed a plushie to restrain himself from hugging Lily unconsciously and fell asleep.

A few minutes later, While Jack had fallen asleep, Lily opened her eyes and found his bruised face, somehow after coming back from the factory, she feels completely different, she can feel the presence of everything around her, if something change, she would be the first one to know it, when Jack came inside through the door, she can feel his presence coming inside the house.

She kept herself from waking up, she wanted to know what Jack will do when he saw her asleep but she felt something wrong with Jack. Lily kept pretending to be asleep while Jack transformed his clothes which greatly surprised Lily, she could feel that while Jack was changing his clothes, something dissolved while another thing came up engulfing him.

Even when Lily could feel what was going on, she can't see it so she didn't know that Jack was morphing his clothes. After he changed his clothes, Lily could sense that Jack came in front of her and stared for a while, making Lily a bit confused but she still won't 'wake up'

After a few seconds, she could feel Jack's palm caressing her belly, she remembered that her belly had a scar on it, a pretty big one at that, she felt afraid, afraid that Jack would be disgusted, she knew Jack wouldn't leave her just because of the scar but she want her body to be perfect, perfect for him.

Lily could still feel him gently tracing the scar she had slowly whilst his warmth kept being transmitted into Lily's heart, which began thumping louder and louder.

Another few seconds after that, Jack removed his hand from her belly and lied down beside her, Lily waited for a while, she followed his breathing to see if he was asleep or not, whilst she was following his rythm of breath, she felt something touching her forehead.

She knew it was Jack's hand and she shuddered a bit but kept herself calm soon after. She waited and finally she felt something, it was a quick kiss full of care being is planted on her forehead, Lily was trying to keep herself outer appearance calm as to not be noticed by Jack but inside, she's flustered.

She can't fathom the kiss she had just received, she did not expect that at all, well, maybe a little. After calming down herself, she could feel Jack's breathing becoming steady indicating that he's sleeping and she opened her eyes.

What greeted her eyes are a bruised Jack hugging a plushie, she did not know when exactly has she fallen for him but she knew that seeing the hurt face of the man she loves pains her heart, greatly. She caressed his bruises just like he had caress her scarred belly. She didn't know who had the capabilities to hurt him but she wants to take revenge for him, if the perpetrator is not dead that is.

When she touched his face and caress it, she could see Jack's face forming a sweet smile, the negative emotions in her heart immediately went away as she kept caressing his face. Thinking about his bruises, she felt like even if Jack have a lot more scars, bruises, whatever it is, she would still love him as much as she does now, maybe more.

She wonders if Jack felt the same way as her, she really wants Jack to love her back, she want him to look at her as a woman, as his potential life partner not a little girl, she remembered ever hearing Jack said that she's just a little girl and she want to change his point of view.

Lily promised to herself, from now onwards, she will try to make him see her as a woman not a little girl, Lily herself don't have any romantic experiences but she will at least try, if she didn't make the move, she might lose him to someone else

Thinking of Jack with another woman makes her heart ache so much, she feels like if that really happen, she won't be able to hold herself and maybe do some questionable things.

Lily braced herself and kissed Jack's bruised cheek while blushing for a while, she wanted to do another thing but didn't know if it was a good thing.

'I don't care anymore!' Lilt steeled her resolve

She removed the plushie Jack was hugging and tossed it to the ground as if it was Jack himself who threw it out and then went into Jack's warm embrace, she can feel Jack's big hand over her arms, hugging her.

Lily blushed again until all of her face is red then returned his hug by wrapping her arms around Jack's body, she could feel Jack's body pressing against her's, his body was eminating a warm feeling which lets Lily fall asleep quickly.

That night, both Jack and Lily smiled their sweetest smile to each other whilst sleeping in each other's embrace.
