Chapter 226 226 An Unexpected Encounter

"Damn, that's one nasty creature. So are we going to fight it?!" she chirped eagerly; "Is it going to want to fight us?"

"Pay attention, look where its headed. . ."

At the base of the hill, the two lifted their gaze upwards- looking in awe at the monster- trying to calculate its trajectory.

"It's heading for the wireworms!" she shrieked excitedly.

"Precisely," he grunted; "I think our black furry friend intends to do the heavy lifting for us."

Excitement cackled through her in electric surges;

"I got ten gold coins on the wireworms!"novE(lB-1n

"Don't be absurd, this isn't a gambling opportunity. This is a teachable moment right here–"

He echoed;

"–if you had engaged the wireworms, sure, you would have killed it. However, a little patience has rewarded us with an even more exciting."

fuck. . .when did I become an old boring dude?

He felt her hot, frantic breaths pumping at his back- and he knew that she wasn't listening. Livid excitement was surging through her. The York girl had a boner for the violent showdown that was about to unfold.

Sighing, Nexus stirred the horse- leading it to a cleft on the opposite side of the hilly pass.

"I got fifteen," he muttered.

"Master?"

"I got fifteen on the black widow."

Her eyes danced in their sockets.

"YOU'RE ON!" she quickly added; "Master!"

-----------------------------

A few moments later, up on the ledge, the duo laid side by side- like two snipers- at the edge of the cliff.

Their eyes bulged in excitement as they watched the Black Widow's rapid advance.

"Wheww," she whistled; "That is one big spider."

"You have no idea."

Eyebrows arched, she glanced at him- picking up the familiar tone in his voice;

"Master, you've fought one before haven't you? I know that look. I wear that look."

"It doesn't matter," he answered coolly; "That was a long time ago. . .but one thing though, Black Widows are not to be trifled with. . ."

The incident with Monica came flashing through his mind and he gulped. The image of Tayshaun's mangled body floated into the orbit of his consciousness, and he gulped again.

Yep.

Black Widows were vicious.

However, as he kept his eyes peeled in the encroaching monster, he the full features of this particular Black Widow began to come into his view.

Unlike the one from before, this black widow was–

"Damn," Stacy cut in; "Look, her whole body's covered in wounds. See how her angled legs wobble with each step? I think a couple of bones or two might be broken– hold on, do spiders have bones?"

"Trust me, this monster does. . ."

On the golden brown rock, the three wireworms had converged together in a pool of greyish brown slime.

Nexus and Stacy noted that the first wireworm was a lot bigger than the others. In its mouth, it clamped the branch- pulling it upwards- not even taking note of the others.

The other two- huddled parallel to each other, were right behind it- slowly munching on the leaves of the branch.

And on their far right, the black widow kept closing in- rattling its angled furry legs- silently heading for the giant wireworms.

Nexus held his breath- thinking;

'Was I wrong?' he wondered; 'Did I call it too soon?'

The wireworms were fucking huge.

Basically gigantic

Black Widow was aggressive- and fast. But was that really enough?

"Sorry master," Stacy chirped ecstatically beside him; "But it looks like I'm about to take your money. . ."

Only a minute later, Nexus began to think maybe she actually would.

------------------------------

In a haze of black fur, and shimmering air, the first attack came arching through the air with a sharp curve.

Black Widow scored the first point.

Her sharp iron-like leg dug into the rear of the wireworm closest to her. The jab sank deep- so deep, she couldn't pull out her claw-like leg in time. Nexus waited for the scream. But it never came.

Behind the unlucky wireworm, a fresh drizzle of thick green liquid poured out from its rear. Automatically, it stopped feeding on the leaves- twerking its massive fleshy body, as it fought to separate itself from the annoying intrusion.

Immediately, the other two were alerted.

Abandoning the branch, they promptly moved to circle around the unfortunate Black Widow- slithering in opposite directions, they arched outwards- moving swiftly to flank the black creature before it could extract its iron-sharp leg.

Next to the wireworms, the Black Widow's looked a lot smaller.

Back on the ledge, as Nexus watched, he heard a moan of surprise erupt from the York girl when the jaws of the wireworms opened! They expanded to thrice their circumference- widening and widening- separating each folds of flesh on their faces!

Nexus grinned inwardly- letting his inner grin spill to the surface as a smirk.

He had purposely buried the lead on that one.

For wireworms, their jaws weren't called the jaws of death for no joking reason. Aside from their unnatural expansion, rows and rows of sharp razor like teeth lined up the crevices of their mouths.

Hiding in the shadows, both humans watched as both wireworms opened their gigantic mouths. Even from that distance, a sickening painful crunch echoed in crushing reverberations.

sq#*eeeeechhhh!!!

The black widow screamed out its lungs into the open void.

Across the ring of hills, the dreadful sound bounced from wall to wall, amplifying the furry creature's pain!

The wireworms sank their teeth violently into its legs- crushing through the hardness of its bones. Nexus' eyes widened- watching in horror. The gigantic creatures weren't just biting- they were eating the Black Widow alive!

"Master," her tone had dropped; "Look,"

She pointed- under the furry body. Nexus' eyes followed- instantly spotting it. Right there, beneath the Black Widow's thrashing and kicking- was a pronounced bulge on its belly.

Blood bloomed on both this cheeks;

"SHE'S PREGNANT!!" they both chorused it together.

"That's why she's so aggressive. I don't think she attacked because she actually wants to feed. . ."

Nexus nodded; "It's the hormones."

She nodded.

The wireworms didn't let up. Lazily, they continued munching on the legs of the Black Widow- ignoring its blood curling screams in the air.

But it couldn't move. It had entrapped itself by planting its leg deep in the sides of the third wireworm. Nexus' eyes flashed back and forth- observing the whole play. It was surrounded.

Even if it managed to extract its leg, the powerful jaws of the other ones had sank into its flesh. They were not going to let her go. She would be eaten alive.

His gut twisted into a knot- tightening and tightening as waves of the creatures cries rang in its ears.

Suddenly, something obstructed the upsurge of the Black Widow's screams.

Both he and Stacy leaned their heads further in- watching the fierce struggle to see what–

ruahhhhh!!

From its throat, a deep guttural phlegm-like cough erupted. Its mouth opened, and glossy-white-silk threads spat out in strands!

"Is that-?!" she echoed in disbelief.

"Yes," Nexus echoed softly; "It wants to use its webs to entrap them. . ."

She asked hopefully; "Do you think its going to hold?"

In silky white streams, the stands of silk retched out of the spider's mouth.
