Elliott's pov

This mask...is hot and heavy. I can't breathe in this thing.

"Ha! Now that was something!" 

Oliver– I mean– Venom passed by me. I can here the camera shut off.

"Elliott,you can take off the mask now." He said.

I take off the mask and the air doesn't change that much,its disgusting and lukewarm.

My name is Elliott Edgerton,I'm seventeen and a only child and I have been trapped here for over...dang it! I lost count...

"El,my dear friend,I'm so proud of you. You're improving every day!" Oliver said to me.

I've been brought here because,apparently for a gang  invitation. But I don't want this. My other friends Richard and Eric are here as well,but Oliver hasn't been as hard on them like he is to me.

Oliver has gone insane,his whole personality change because of this makeshift drug that me manifesting,all because of him–

I dont know alot about this guy but apparently hes a upperclassman and popular with the ladies...

Isabella...if only I could hear her voice right now,we met each other during my freshman year and I fell in love..then we broke up for the first time and I'll admit,I cried like a child that night but then we healed and eventually got back together. Now that I'm here,if I could escape and find her maybe we'll work together and–

"El! Lemme talk to you for a second." Oliver said to me.

This can't be good..

"Yes? Venom?" I said walking to him.

"Now that we have sent a clear statement to New York,there is something I would like for us to work on." He explained.

Oliver has the craziest ideas I heard of so this can't be good. Its nothing new to me,hes always had crazy ideas now he uses them for evil and wrongdoing.

"There is one more person that I would like for you to welcome them here." He said deeply.

"Who would that be?" I said getting nervous.

Oliver scanned me up and down and then laughed at me. "Relax,all I want you is to bring me Isabella."

"Isabella?" I could feel my eye light up,this could be my chance! ill find her and then,tell her what happened then–

"Are you listening to me buddy? I'm asking you to do something huge." Oliver said.

"Yes Venom,I'll get her and bring her back here." I said headed outside.

I heard him say quietly "That's my boy" I walked out onto the street and headed toward Springfield,my high school. I'm in all black clothing. I look like a goofball. 

I need to think of a plan that could save me and my friends along with Isabella and Kennedy. I can't keep doing this much longer.

I finally arrived at Springfield but not around the area at all,I was in the alleyway waiting for Isabella to past by. I started to shake slightly...I don't wanna harm her not in the slightest bit.

I heard her voice walk past me,I started to remove half of my clothes so I would seem to suspicious.

I emerge from the alleyway and started to walk behind her. Oh god. What should I call out to her?

"Is-Isabella?" I said quivering.

She turned around and face drops a little,she grabbed my hand and walked me back into the alleyway where I was.

"Where have you been? Everyone has been looking for you!" She really close to my face.

"I can't really tell you that,but come with me I have something to show you." I said.

She gave me a weird look but agreed to go with me. I grabbed her hand and walked back to the warehouse. We talked about all the stuff that has happened while I was gone.

Apparently the NYPD came over and interviewed her about me...I hope she told them good things!

When we started to get closer to the warehouse,I warned her about the smell and how foul it would be but she didn't mind it.

"Dude,where are we?" She said scared.

"This is where I've been." I said to her. I could feel her hand tightened against mine.

We walked inside and the room got quiet at the sight of me and Isabella.

"Venom! I'm back..." I called out. Isabella looked at me confused.

"Venom?" She asked.

"Your not gonna believe who it is." I said.

 Oliver came out in a different attire,Isabella jaw dropped and turned over to me.

"Oliver?! You too?!" She said shocked pointing at him.

Isabella turned her head to me. "Elliott...who else is here?" Shes scared straight.

Oliver sighed and walked towards us. "I guess I should spill the beans. Both of you come with me." Isabella and I walked throughout the hallway. I know what he's about to do. 

"Isabella,you're familiar with Kennedy right?" He asked her but Isabella stayed quiet and her head hung low.

"Silent treatment..I understand." His voice got deep.

I turned to her trying to make eye contact with her. "Isabella are you okay." She was quite.

"Well if you're not gonna say anything,I guess he will." Oliver opened the door where Kennedy was tied up against the chair.

"OH MY GOD,WHAT THE HELL?!" She yelled out and ran towards him caressing Kennedys face.

I looked over at Oliver confused,why did Isabella mood change so quickly? Oliver closed the door and locked it 

He looked raged and terrifying.

"Tell him." He said standing over Isabella. Kennedy slowly raised his head and flinched when saw  Isabella near his feet.

"Isabella? Not you to." He said sadly.

"TELL HIM YOU RAT! TELL HIM THAT YOU CHEATED ON HIM WITH KENNEDY!" Oliver yelled out the sentence while pointing at me...

She cheated on me? With him? Why? WHY? WHY?! I locked eye with both Isabella and Kennedy,they look,exposed,disappointed and mostly empty.

I took a closer look at Kennedy,and I understood everything. Hes bigger than me,more good looking,no wonder hes popular with the ladies. 

Theres so many emotions running throughout my body. I don't know wither I wanna cry or lash out on them or just run.

Oliver turned to me and walked to me stood next to me whilst pointing at them. "Look at what you're doing to my friend. You crushed his heart into pieces! How do you–"

I stopped him mid sentence. "I'll take care of them!" Isabella and Kennedy looked fearful while Oliver looked proud more of a villainous proud.

"That's what I'm talking about,I'll be back with lunch!" Oliver left the room,leaving me and Isabella and Kennedy in the room.

The more I look at them the more I wanna...never mind. I walked towards them and bent down

"I am gonna get you both out of here,I care more about lives than whatever is going on with both of you." I said. 

I went behind Kennedy and untied him,he stood up but his legs gave out. Oh what has Oliver done to you?

"How are you gonna get us out of here?" Kennedy said.

"I'll figure out something,I'm sorry what he'd done to you." I said.

What happened to my friend? What caused him to turn this way? If only the NYPD could see what's happening...

Later at night...and into the next day

"El! You've gone viral man! Everyone talking about the hacking incident!" Oliver said laughing while looking at the monitor.

There's a room in the warehouse that doubles as a security unit and another disturbing secret... 

There's hidden tabs of where each drug syndicate / cartel around the world and it's all connected to one big system. The mainland syndicate is called  ; The Phantasm clan.

The location is unknown,but the leader of the phantasm is a MONSTER,or so what Ive heard.

When Oliver introduced this system to me,I felt sick that I was gonna be part of this.

"So,what now?" I asked him.

"Glad you asked, Tomorrow morning begins phase one ; The shipments. In the back there is a truck loaded with the manufactured seed packets that we made with the substance. Five stores asked for the packaging and that's where it begins my friend." Oliver explained leaning back in his chair.

I nodded my head while thinking of a plan to escape this hell hole. My best bet is that I sneak them all out and run to the NYPD.  The problem is that there is guards all over the place,and cameras. So my ideas where thinning.

"Hey,I'm gonna check up on Isabella and Kennedy." I said to excuse myself.

He was immersed in the monitor,I bet he didn't hear me leaving the room. I went to the room where Kennedy and Isabella were being captive. I walked inside to see Richard and Eric with them.

"Oh? Are yall having a party without me?" I said walking in laughing and sitting down.

"How's is he? did he say anything else about us?" Eric asked.

Eric was the second to join the friend group,hes more athletic than all of us,but there is one flaw about him.

"Come on man! I'm tired of being stuck in here,I bet I could kickbox our way out of here." He said confidently.

"You know karate?" Kennedy asked.

"Well...I've seen Kung Fu Panda multiple times,so yeah?" He said.

He gets influenced easily.

"Okay,karate is not gonna help us in this situation,we need stealth and we need it soon." I said.

"Ummm,what about the roof? we could hide there?" Richard or Ricky said.

And lastly Ricky was the last he's one year younger than us,he tends to be soft spoken and to himself while being very creative.

"We could try the rooftop,but how would we get down?" I said.

Our building is one storey high and thought of coming down the building without breaking your legs is near impossible.

"Tomorrow morning there's a shipment going away to plenty of stores maybe we could hide in there,and then at the right moment we bust out of there and escape." I said,it seem like everyone agreed with me.

"Then it's a deal,we break out tomorrow morning for now we sleep." I said sitting down on the ground. 

Everyone tried to get comfortable and sleep,but how? In a place like this filled with danger in every corner? It was hard not gonna lie,but we all eventually fell asleep.

After a few minutes I felt something warm and heavy and sticky... I immediately shot up and looked around the room, it was dark. I look down to see a body next on top of me. I cant tell who it is. I get up calmly not trying to wake them up and walked over to the light switch. I flicked it on and,the sight in front of me was horrifying.

Kennedy,Isabella,Richard and Eric laid out,there skin was pale and cold. I felt sick to my stomach. Then I looked at my hands,they were covered in blood! My vision started to get blurry and then I passed out...

I can hear my name over and over.

"Elliott! wake up! The truck is about to leave!" Said a female voice.

I jolt up again,and Isabella was in front of me. She backed up while I got up.

The truck? The Truck! I forgot! I grabbed Isabella's hand and ran out of the room but it was too late,the truck pulled away.

"Aw man!" I said while hitting myself on the head.

Richard and Eric along with Kennedy ran up behind us groaning in defeat.

"I had a bad night! and I'm sorry guys. I'm sure there's a shipment tomorrow and probably throughout the week."

Everyone was tell me its okay and there night wasn't that great either,I looked down from the railing and there was Oliver talking to someone,me and him eye contact. He gave us a sly smirk and then walked off.

He knew what was happening...
