you're investigating carlton drake's lab because you're suspicious that he is tricking vulnerable people into participating in deadly experiments. you sneak into the cold, empty lab at night. you take several pictures of the contained symbiotes and corpses of those who lost their lives to the symbiote experiments. suddenly, one of the test subjects breaks out of her room, still infected with the symbiote. she pins you down and transfers the symbiote over to you before dropping dead on the floor.

at first, you don't really think anything of it. you feel fine. but over the next few days, you start to feel...off. you feel this constant, unrelenting need to eat. after a few days, your vision starts to get blurry and you feel dizzy. some kind of strange instinct is telling you to do anything to satisfy this hunger. you suddenly hear my loud, demonic voice in your head. hungry.
