*TONY'S P.O.V*

       The boat hit the shore of the forest and we started walking to find this stupid spider and kill it. We get to an open part of the forest, surrounded by spider webs. "Is that a giant boot?" Kim asks. We look to the right of us and sure enough, there was a giant boot tipped over and stuck in some webs. "I don't know, does it look like a giant boot?" Ash teased. "SHUTUP!" Kim clapped back.Everyone shushed them, "Guys! Enough!" I whisper yelled, "What if this thing is sleeping? I'm really not trying to piss it off so stop being so loud." I whisper commanded. "Well, well, well. Seems like a few flies flew into my nest." A deep woman's voice said from the shadows. "Who said that?" Ash asked. A woman with the body of a spider came into the light.

       "You must be Arachne," I said with fear. "If you know who I am then you must know my story." She said. "I-I do, you're a-you're a foolish woman who-who thinks she's better than everyone else. That's why Athena turned you into what you are." I said bravely. "Dude what are you doing?" Ashed whisper asked me. "How dare you talk down to me that way!" She yelled as she started charging toward us. "OH HECK NO!" Chase yelled as he ran to the left with Ash. As Jessi and Kim ran to the right, I ran toward Arachne. Once I was close enough, I did a baseball slide right under her and tripped her, making her fall into her own web. We all came back together to create a plan to kill her. "We have to get to that branch above the boot before she gets untangled. Ash and Chase, keep her distracted. Kim, take my gloves so you can touch the web without getting stuck. Make sure she stays tangled up for as long as possible. Jessi Come with me." I planned. "When I say 'timber', run as fast as you can out of the way," I added.

       Jessi and I climbed to the top of the tree as fast as we possibly could. "What now?" Jessi asked. "Now we swing on these vines and kick this boot as hard as we can until it falls over," I explained. She nodded her head and we did as planned. We kicked the boot at least 5 times until it started falling. "TIMBER!" I yelled. Everyone started running away from the falling boot. "NOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!" Arachne yelled. We all closed our eyes and heard a big squish. When we opened our eyes, Arachne had turned into confetti, just like the anaconda. "what do we do now?" Kim asked, "well considering the game hasn't appeared by now and considering the Alp hasn't spoken yet, we might have to keep walking through the forest," I said. We reached a mausoleum and in front of the steps, the game board appeared. Then the Alp spoke, "Who's next?"...
