The two women (Aphire on the left, Basma on the right) ran into the kitchen in pure panic trying to escape the symbiote mass taking others within their household. Aphire rushed to open the window to attempt an escape. It was pointless. The symbiote could get anywhere. Under any door. Through any seam. And it was quick. Very quick.
It grabbed onto the leg of Basma, making her scream. Aphire, still trying to climb out of the window was distracted by the scream. She looked back to see the symbiote climbing up Basma's leg.
Naturally Basma tried tearing the symbiote off with her hands. Which just made things worse for her. It simply branched off and spread across her hands and arms too. She fell to her knees as another piece branched off and grabbed onto Aphire's leg. She fell off of the counter and onto the floor.
The symbiote didn't take over their minds first, so they felt every moment of the bonding without it's usual ability of twisting of their minds from fear into acceptance. They felt every inch of it claiming their bodies.
Aphire, behind in the bonding process, looked on as she saw the symbiote almost fully encasing Basma's body. Her teeth sharpening, her jaw morphing into one with the new muscular figure forming around her. Aphire knew the same thing was about to happen to herself. Would she continue to panic or embrace it? In that split second moment it was tough to choose. But it wouldn't be long until it finally did reach her mind and they'd both be a part of the new, inevitable, symbiote hive world.
