After a while a driving you arrived at a cave. The car pulled to a stop and you climbed out of the limousine, helping Angela get out after you. She looked at you hip and hugged you gently.

Angela:Are you really ok (Y/n)?

You smiled down at her.

(Y/n):Yeah it just hurts a little, but I'm sure it is fine.

You rested your hand against the wound to find it was healing nicely.

(Y/n):See?

Angela looked at your hand confused, then brought her gaze back up to you.

Angela:Then what is that stuff on your hand?

You looked down at your hand and noticed traces of the black blood. You wiped your hand on your shirt.

(Y/n):Oh it's nothing. Why don't we get going?

Angela ran forward and you sighed in relief at her innocence. Then you felt a hand on your shoulder. You turned and gazed past your shoulder at Mifune.

Mifune:You are going to tell me the truth.

(Y/n):About w-

Mifune:Don't play dumb with me! I trusted you with Angela's live and now you are hiding something. It would be better if you tell me now less I have to cut you down supposing you put Angela in danger.

You went to speak, but another voice beat you to it.

Mosquito:Mifune, (Y/n) come along now.

You turned to Mosquito and walked towards him pulling your shoulder out of Mifune's steel grip. You reached his side and he looked up at you.

Mosquito:I will escort you to lady Arachne's quarters.

(Y/n):I don't feel comfortable being alone with her. Not that she isn't nice and all I just feel more relaxed if I can get my wound wrapped.

Mosquito:I guess that is understandable. Well then care for me to escort you there?

(Y/n):I have never been here before so it would be preferable.

Mosquito:Then follow me young man.

You followed Mosquito through the entrance and you were met with pitch blackness. As you followed the ever shrinking figure of Mosquito you walked into a huge cavern. Lit by torches and the smallest bit of sunlight you saw a huge castle inside the cavern. It appeared as if the castle was built on a giant metal spider which made since considering who lived there. A voice cut off your thoughts.

Mosquito:Welcome to Baba Yaga Castle. Home of Arachnophobia. 

(Y/n):I will admit it is a marvel of engineering. The style is beautiful as well.

Mosquito gave a light chuckle before looking back at the castle.

Mosquito:Lady Arachne will be pleased to hear that. Now shall we continue?

(Y/n):Oh of course.

You followed the man until he signaled you to come next to him with a wave of his hand. You walked a little faster and then stepped in pace with him.

Mosquito:I wish to inform you I haven't seen my lady this truly happy in a long time. She would go on for hours saying how she wished for you to be by her side. She knew the tremendous age gap yet still she only yearned for you. 

(Y/n):Why?

Mosquito:Pardon?

(Y/n):Why does everyone seem to care about me lately. My parents cast me out because I wasn't the little meister they had wanted. So I spent my young life with my uncle. He said he loved having me around, but I could see in his eyes that he only wanted me around because he felt obligated. I left once I was old enough and joined the academy and met my  meister. And I even lost her after failing at the one thing I was born to do. So why does everyone say they want me around?! DWMA, Medusa, and now Arachne all say they care for me! I don't know what to do anymore and I feel like if I keep going down this road I am going to lose all of you.
