The first three chapters were too short, in my opinion anyway. So, from on, the chapters will be longer. I'm thinking of even combining the last two chapters.

Chapter 4:Flashback

It had been 3 days since that had happened. It was now Friday. Miss. Spider was remembering the day she first met Tarantula.

They had both been little kids. And like normal spiders, they had both been abandon by their parents. They had been just, been there for each other. But she had only loved him as a brother of course. Who would have thought that...

Then, she remembered the other time she saw him...

It had been right after James left her in that crack at the stone wall. She was about to heed his words when she remembered, Tarantula! So, without him noticing, she headed for Tarantula's web by the old tree. His family was probably the very last of the English Tarantulas. So not only did she not want him too get killed, but it would be horrible if his species went extinct!

So she hurried and hurried till she banged into one of the roots of the tree. But then, she heard something, coming from his web. She got closer.

"OH! Come on boy! Do want this proud species to go extinct?", said a Yorkshire accent. "Um, no father, I don't,", said the filmier voice of Tarantula, "but she's my friend!"

Miss. Spider gasp! They were talking about her!

"I'm sure we can make it the same way we did for the last couple years!", he continued, "We haven't died from eating flies!"

"Yes! True!", said his father, "But the poison of those machines the fat one carries is making them rare. The only reason we even chose this diet was because she was the only one of those here and you were in love with her! But there's no reason to waste anymore time! With us getting used too eating small meals, she should last us at least 2 months! Plus, she doesn't return your feelings!"

Miss. Spider gasped! Tarantula was in love with her? What was all this talk about eating?

"No!", Tarantula said, "You're wrong! I know it deep down, if I could probably just ask her! There's plenty of other things our family could eat besides striped spiders or flies! Give me a chance!"

There was a silence.

"Fine.", the father said coldly, "BUT! If she doesn't love you back or falls in love with another, she's mine."

Tarantula could only nod.

Miss. Spider shook her head, no, no, this wasn't happening, no. She stepped back one step on to a noisy leaf. The two Tarantulas looked in her direction and saw her.

"Miss. Spider,", Tarantula began, but she ran off. Off to the very top of the tree. But as she ran, Tarantula kept calling out, "Miss. Spider! Miss. Spider! MISS. SPIDER!"

Miss. Spider gasped and shook her head. What happened after that was obvious, wasn't it? Besides, it was too painful to remember anyway.

There was a knock on the door. She was the only one at the house, so she answered this. She was shocked and yet unsurprised to see that it was Tarantula.

"Um, hello, Miss. Spider,", he said, "mind going for walk, there's something I must talk to you about.

All she could do was agree.

And hope Centipede, or any of the others didn't realize the the truth.
