But not in the way he expected. Or wanted. Large metallic hands grasp  as much of the tentacles as he can, squeezing them with a grip that would split mountains. And as he fights the tentacles, he hears a couple of familiar voices… He barely turns his head one direction and then the other, catching glimpses of his new allies in the fight. He speaks in a slightly muffled tone as Carnage’s tentacles start to crawl along his face.<br/><br/>“Spider-Man! Gambit, my good friend and ally!”   His tone is upbeat, despite the fact he’s in a bad spot. He is about to say something else, but now his whole face is covered for the most part. He can almost feel the probing tentacles… and he’s seen enough hentai to know where this is going. The normal instinct in a situation like this.. well it’s to get the hell out of there. Use your enormous strength to break free. But Colossus can’t do that, he won’t do that. Not yet. Instead, one of his armored hands draws back in a fist, his other hand moves up in front of him. That hand opens a moment, and then his arm loops around as he grasps more tentacles. Which he now has more variety to choose from. The motion is much the same motion you would use to wrap your garden hose around your arm, to bring it back to you and coil it up. Colossus uses all of his… considerable… strength to in effect pull Carnage a little closer. Doing the exact opposite of what instinct would tell you.<br/><br/>Piotr has to resist the urge to try and break free. And that’s a tall order right there. For you see, those tentacles to exactly what Carnage wanted them to. Colossus can<em>feel</em>those tentacles worming their way inside of his head. Through his nose, mouth and nose for the most part. He can feel them writhing inside of him. But he’s confident that this will do no good for Carnage, save for the effect of making Piotr very very uncomfortable.<br/><br/>How is that, you might ask? A common misconception about Piotr’s mutant power is that his skin turns to metal only.. and that’s it. But it is the whole of his body, his internal organs, eyes, all of it. The same invulnerable metal like component that make up his skin also make up his entire inner body. Carnage was smart to not try and slice into Colossus, he would have never gotten anywhere. And he was smart to try and attack Colossus from the inside, to get passed that metal hide. But what Carnage doesn’t realize is that all of Colossus is that invulnerable metal. So there’s not much, if any, damage Carnage can do to Colossus by going in through his mouth, nose and ears. But it does give Colossus exactly the advantage he needed.<br/><br/>Carnage is absolutely faster than Colossus. Colossus is absolutely stronger than Carnage. He’s stronger than Carnage and Spider-Man put together. So<em>maybe</em>Colossus wouldn’t be able to harm Carnage if he couldn’t catch him. And<em>maybe</em>he could be outmaneuvered by Carnage. But as it is… well Carnage is all wrapped up in Colossus. Well wrapped up on<em>and</em>in Colossus. And Colossus is that immovable object you hear so much about. So in effect…<br/><br/>Colossus acts as an anchor to Carnage. Using all of his considerable strength to keep a grip of his writhing tentacles, allowing him to try and violate him. Because all of that equals Carnage now being easily in Colossus’ range, and having nowhere to go. Remember his other hand? The one not reeling in Carnage? With a muffled grunt Colossus throws that very large very unstoppable fist right at the side of Carnage’s head from nearly point blank range. He puts all he has into that one punch, needing to end this now. Needing to keep the pretty red-haired woman safe, needing to keep Spider-Man and Gambit safe. As he throws his punch, he can feel the ground below him shifting, and he can feel himself slowly sinking. But he has to hold his ground, taking Carnage is most important to him at this moment..<br/>
