"Exactly as planned", Trevor said. "It seems that the system somehow responds to our desires when giving us skills, and we've obtained some skills that will allow us to take care of large hordes of monsters"
"That certainly is a useful way of thinking.", Garett replied.
Trevor stood there looking proud of himself, confident that they had won, however it was not the time to be cocky. The four remained back to back, waiting for another wave of spiders to arrive.

One spider fell off the edge here and there. Trevor took them out easily with his bow. The baby spiders were yellow and transparent, just like the eggs. They would likely look different when fully grown, but for now they looked more like larvae than spiders.
"What's going on up there?", Samantha asked, nervously.
"We don't have the luxury to find out. Staying right here and taking care of anything that comes our way is the best bet on living until things calm down. Now that we have all our health and mana replenished, we should be able to maximize efficiency if me and red take care of the stragglers, and if you two save your energy for when a wave appears", Trevor noted.
Ashley nodded, and remained vigilant, watching for any changes in the situation at the top of the craters.
They continuously heard the screams of the baby spiders- both dying screams and victory cries.
Who were they fighting?
Was there someone else up there?
----
Coran and Berith were hiding in an alcove after they saw those creatures fall from the sky.
They watched breathlessly as the creatures fell into the cave, and waited patiently, both of them sweating in fear and horror.
Who were those beings?
They fell from the sky. Did they come from mothers web?
If so, were they defeated and thrown off by mother, or perhaps...
Coran couldn't even imagine his mother losing. Compared to him and Berith, his mother was overwhelmingly strong, however after seeing the giant explosion caused by the black haired ghost, Coran wasn't exactly confident in this opinion.
Berith hid behind him, her humanoid arms on his shoulders. He could feel her trembling. This was the little sister he knew. Not a cold blooded killer, but his timid little sister who his behind him in the face of danger.

The little sister who he had to protect.
"What.... what was that?", she quietly asked.
"I... I have no idea. It looked like... no, I don't know. My eyes must be playing tricks on me.", Coran responded.
Coran was terrified. Even if he knew that he had to kill his own siblings... even if he had already stained his hands with their blood... even if his precious sister had also stained her hands with their blood...
Hundreds of them had died in an instant.
How could he not feel anything as hundreds of his own kin were mercilessly slaughtered?
But could he really say that he was any better than the monsters who just fell down?
No. He couldn't.
But what dawned on Coran was exactly that.
Coran had stained his hands with blood, and he was no better than those monsters who had mercilessly slaughtered hundreds of his brethren in that instant.
With this, Coran realized exactly what he must do- no. What he must become- in order to survive.
He had to become a monster, bathed and born in the blood of others.
Coran held hatred towards his siblings because they were nothing like him. If they were allowed to live, they would simply become monsters like his mother. No, maybe even worse. They did not hold intelligence, so they would simply be killing machines.
But even so, they were still blood relatives.
What did that even mean, to be related by blood?
'I give up', Coran thought. There was no longer any point thinking about this.
In order to survive, he would become a monster. In order to protect his sister, he would do whatever was necessary,
But right now, it was necessary to remain hidden.
Both Coran and Berith could feel a horrible aura coming from the crater. Whatever was in the craters, they held an enormous amount of power.
Suddenly, he heard a sound.
It was a cracking sound.
The eggs were hatching.

The Right Place At The Wrong Time
"What will you feel if, by inevitable circumstance, you never see your most beloved ever again?" ~~~ In the year 2000, 18-year-old Steven Vincenzo moved from the Philippines to the USA due to his father's promotion. They settle down in a small neighborhood known as Izzaya, in a city called Haggrew. Just a few days after moving, he finds out about a dark past from the Prohibition Era that still haunts the neighborhood, a dark past full of grizzly murders and kidnappings. Determined to know more about it, he finds out that there are ties to an old abandoned house he always passes by in the neighborhood, seeing it as a lead. Hesitant at first, due to the fear of breaking and entering. In order to find out more, he needed to go into the abandoned house where he finds a mysterious door that isn't like any other in the house. The infamous door that was presumed to be "The Culprit's Room." He enters the room where he suddenly got sucked in by an unstoppable force. He wakes up outside the abandoned house, to a confused girl in front of him trying to get him back into his senses. This girl was wearing vintage clothing and had quite a distinct accent that Steven had never heard of before, except in movies and TV series. Looking around, he knew something was definitely wrong. The abandoned house looked newly built along with other old houses in the vicinity. Trying to understand the situation he's in with all the clues he has, he eventually asks the girl what year it currently was to confirm his speculations. To this, the girl replies with a serious tone, "1927." Steven doesn't know what to do with all this information. Will he be happy that he could know more about the dark past and possibly try preventing it? Will he be distressed in trying to figure out how to come back to his own time?
