Mina awoke from another nightmare. The dream faded quickly. It was gong to be another beautiful, sunny day. In the darkness of the pit, for her it was always sunny. Especially on days she would visit her friend.

She pulled the pretty blue coverlet up and smoothed down her bed, oblivious to the filthy rags that she had lain in.

She felt a little bloated this morning, musing that it was “that time of the month again”. Her huge breasts were sore. Across her groin and thighs the scratches, bite marks and gnawed flesh had stopped bleeding. Infection dripped from her gaping slit. The stretch marks were enflamed. Mina smiled and whispered a name, “Ami-chan”.

“Time for breakfast” she thought. Sitting at the antique table and chair in the kitchen nook, she balanced on the stones and piles of dirt that made up her nest.

Picking a pastry, she began to lick at the icing, savoring the warm flavor of the amniotic fluid clinging to one of her newborn pups. When she finished the first, she decided she was still hungry. A second pastry would play havoc with her diet. But she couldn’t resist. As if no time had passed, she cleaned and groomed all twelve of the creatures she had whelped. They would be taken away soon, but that would not make her sad. She didn't recognize them now and wouldn’t remember them… until next month when her contractions would bring forth another generation.

Humming to herself, she picked her favorite brush and comb to fix her beautiful blonde hair. The cat jawbone in her hand pulled some of the remaining patches of scalp away from her head.

“Ugh, I have got to change conditioners” she said to herself.

“Maybe Ami-chan has some. She is so pretty, so perfect” Mina said, before losing her train of thought again.

Putting on her prettiest sundress, the rags she had lain in last night, she set off to see her friend.

The bright sun made it hard to see the way, but when she began to stray from the path the bites to her ankles and feet would set her straight again. It would never occur to her to wonder if any of these rats were her own children.

The glittering jeweled left eye stared across the pit. Although the right eye still tended to wander and jerk spastically, the creature that was Ami Mizuno had vision greater than any other that had ever lived. Ten thousand tiny eyes throughout the pit, the Negaverse and human realm gave her instant perspective.

“Miiiiinnnnntaaaa”, she whispered. “Mina, my darling."

Mina began to run, in spite to the awful pain in her breasts. Her breasts were swollen and distended, bouncing on her chest. They were so heavy now she could barely stand upright. The biting rats urged her onwards.

Mina could not decide which feature of her friend she loved the most. The left side of the face was dead white and paper thin. During the war of the spiders it had been repeatedly stung and then damaged by the old spider. To protect it, other poisons had been applied that had desiccated the skin and preserved the remaining flesh. A rictus smile exposed the teeth and gum line of that side.

The other side of the face, with the twitching eye was still alive, a trail of tiny green spiders exiting her nostril. Hatchlings had hollowed out and nested in the internal organs that were no longer needed. Those that had not become part of her internal structure exited her body to grow and carry out their mother’s bidding.

Ami sat on her throne of bones. As Mina approached, she licked her lips and smiled her horrible smile.

Time to feed.
