A drabble-y thing, suddenly brought on when doing an LJ meme. Don't hurt me, please. Since I was doing the meme for her, this is for shinchansgirl, my evil twin. :D
Disclaimer: I only own the plot.
"... Yuusuke?"
"Mmgnmmph!"
"Never mind. Let me get that for you."
SKREEEEETTT!
"OW! FUCK, that hurt, dammit!"
"You can handle it. What are you doing here? And more to the point, how did you manage to get here, all tied up like that?"
"Trust me, you don't wanna know. You writing a letter, or something?"
"Or something. Why are you here?"
"You remember those spider demons that we finished off earlier today?"
"I didn't think we missed any. Didn't Botan say that there were only two?"
"Well, technically yes."
"... I don't like the sound of that."
"Koenma told me to go back to the forest and burn off all the webby stuff they'd left there, didn't want any humans to accidentally get stuck."
"Mm-hmm."
"So I went back and I was almost done, and then I fell down a fucking hole."
"Like Alice?"
"Like who?"
"Nothing. Go on, Yuusuke."
A suspicious stare.
"...Fine. Anyways, I was looking around, trying to get back up and I saw about thirty of those things glaring back at me."
"Thirty of them?"
"More or less. Except they were a quarter of the size of the first two."
"... Yuusuke, please don't tell me - "
"Yep. Seems like we have another generation of those things to kill. I killed about twenty, the rest of them skittered into the woods, and I blew up the rest of the eggs there - there must've been about five hundred of them."
"How many eggs had hatched?"
"Exactly one hundred and fifty-seven. I counted."
A flat stare.
"I am not doing this alone. You're coming with me whether you like it or not, fox-boy."
"I really don't feel like genocide today."
"Tough luck. Those little buggers are even faster than the grown-up ones. And the webbing hardens in seconds. Stupid things. I'm never looking at 'Spider-man' the same way again."
-- The end. --
Hee.
