The 8 Legged Doctor

This story is based off of a small spider that I found scuttling around in my small TARDIS. It's from his point of view. I hope you enjoy!😜

I had no idea where I was. One minute, I was walking around in a small box, very content with life, and the next, dust is flying everywhere as the top of the box is being yanked off! Now, I had already considered this small box my home, and was starting to make blueprints for the eccentric web I was going to string throughout it. Anyways, with all of the dust and the blinding light, I couldn't see, obviously. When my eyes finally came into focus, I was very upset to see that my blueprints had been ruined buy the dust. When i finally looked up, i wished that i hadn't.

A large, flat faced creature moved into my view. The weirdest thing: It only had two eyes! I was appalled! The creature was incredibly slow, but the size of it was quite frightening, as you could imagine.

Here, let me give you an example. Let's say that we aren't all spiders, but we are the ginormous flat faces creatures. I'm going to call them Earth- Shakers. Okay, so you're an Earth-Shaker, and you see a small, yet incredibly handsome, spider. He is just walking along, minding his own business, completely happy. You, as an Earth- Shaker, are about a ba-jillion,million times larger than that spider. Now you're the spider again. If you saw that, would you run? Most of us who have seen the flat-faced creatures do. Would you be paralized with fear, unable to move, hoping that the Earth-Shaker won't eat you? Probably, but you refuse to admit it. Or would you stare at it in wonder? I did.
