Chapter XIV: Primal Fears
----------------------------------------
“Kill I do’s!” yelled Flappers as she went in to spear the hairy beast.
“Watch out, it has-”
*Pew* *Smack*
Flappers was then nailed to the rocky ceiling by a net of silk and cried, “Stuck I am’s!”
Unk jumped out of the pile and yelled, “Scortch!”
*Wiz* *Pop* *Sizzle*
The small flame missed the target by a lot and went straight up into the air. As the flame passed over, the creature became clear; it was an arachnid that was way too big for its own good, and it knew that.
The beast bared its fangs and lunged at Unk.

“Fuck! Make it stop!” cried Unk as he tried to release the fangs that had impaled his oval frame.
And that’s when Flappers descended from a burning net towards the eight-legged beast and yelled, “Bad spider!”
The pain of Flapper's sudden dive bomb made the eight-legger reel back in pain. Immediately, the beast let go of Unk and tried to go after Flappers. However, it noticed that something was preventing it from doing so.
“Master’s bug!” yelled Flappers as she buzzed around the spider.
Unk shifted onto his back and yelled, “Dazzle!”

The spider jolted back from being blinded in multiple eyes. It was also in this same moment that the party realized the light in the cave was not from Unk’s lingering spell, but from the beetle’s luminescent shell.
“That’s it, we got it on the ropes guys. Just keep-”
“Hisssssss,” said the spider, as it turned its attention back onto Unk.
*Snap* *Crunch*
The small beetle tried viciously to hold back the foe, yet in attempting to do so, it snapped the leg of the spider and released it.
Unk then rolled off the pile, nearly missing a mouth filled of razor blades, and yelled, “Get fucked ugly.”
“Get safe!” cried Flappers as she continued to peck the once again pinned spider.
Unk limped a bit from the fight and asked himself, “Owe, ah, she’s right… But surely there’s something I can do. What spells do I have right now?!”
You may cast three more novice-leveled spells, any of which may be: heal minor wounds, lights, dazzle, identify magic.
“Wait, what about scorch?”
You have casted your maximum number of beginner spells for the day.
“Damn it all, that doesn’t fucking help. What about my ring?” said Unk as he gleamed down into the black stone.
This item is unknown, and must be used before it’s information becomes available.
“Shity ring, I guess I have no choice but to-”
The spider eventually had enough of the games and refused to be tethered by the beetle any longer. With an awkward flip, the spider out-maneuvered the beetle briefly and was able to get a hold of its prey. It then crushed straight through its exoskeleton, killing it instantly.

*Pew*
Flappers was thrown to the wall in a sticky mess and cried, “Master run!”
“No Flaps, I must find myself, and this is only the beginning!” said Unk as he walked up to the spider who stood high on its back legs, spraying spit and gore everywhere.
The spider then came down with all its might to deliver the final blow.
“Eat shit,” said Unk as he activated the ring.
*Zip* *Thud* *Plop*
