Chapter 44: Arachne, Spider Queen

Delphi sat on the couch with Terra and Tartaros right beside her. I was holding back Daniel while Alex was held back by Matthew. "Well, where to start..." Delphi said. "How about Terra and Tartaros." Erza said, nodding her head towards the couple. Before Felphi could say something, I said "Terra always hated her first husband, Ouranos, the first god of the sky." The ground started to shake at Ouranos' name. "He threw most of my children into Tartaros! Why wouldn't I hate him!?" Terra yelled at me. The ground continued to shake. Delphi just sat back and let me explain.

"So Terra convinced her son, Saturn-" everybody then yelled "WHAAAT!?" "I thought I told you that. Where was I? Oh, right. Terra convinced Saturn to kill the poor god. So Saturn was given a scythe from his mother and he cut up his father. Saturn then became the ruler of Olympus." I explained. Then Terra summoned a scythe. The blade was black and dried blood was on the blade. "You know I treasure this? It's the wepon Saturn used to kill his father!" Terra said happily. Everyone else looked at her in fear, while I... looked at the amazing wepon in her hands.

"Robert?" Abigail said, snapping her fingers in my face. I shook my head and said "Sorry. After Ouranos was chopped up, Saturn threw the pieces into the ocean and Ouranos' blood became the sea foam. Plus Venus is the last child of Ouranos." I said while shrugging. "Lady Love was made from Ouranos' blood!?" Alex said, surprised. "You didn't know? You have been with her daughter ever since New Years, have you not?" Daniel asked with a smirk. I'm gonna snap... both of these idiots are dead soon... "As I was saying! Then Terra fell in love with Tartaros and he released her children. Now, these two are madly in love." I finished.

Delphi clapped and said "Spot on! You forgot to mention that the Giants, the one eyed monsters, and the rest of the monsters are her children." I paled. "The Giants..." I said, looking over to Terra. She looked at me, still holding that beautiful scythe, and said "They love me to much to betray me." I let out a breathe. Then I sneezed and gave a light cough. "You okay?" Amanda asked. I nodded. "Now how do they know each other?" Natsu and Gray asked, pointing at Daniel and Alex. Delphi then gave it to us straight forward. "They were supposed to work together in finding the gods, but they fought to much and became rivals." she said.

I looked at Daniel, then to Alex, then back again. I let out a sigh and said in a deeo voice that wasn't mine "Try to fight and I knock both of you out." They both became scared and nodded. I looked outside and it was dark. "Arachne is back." Tartaros said. I shivered slightly. "Arachne?" Abigail questioned. "Hey! Would you look at the time! Night everyone!" I said all of a sudden and ran upstairs into my room. After five minutes, an angry Abigail walked in with a little Wendy behind her. "What do I always say!?" she yelled. "Sorry. I was really- *Yawn*- tired..." I said.

She sighed and pinched the bridge of her nose. "Just, never do that again... for the FITH HUNDRED TIME." she threatened. I nodded. Both of my family members got changed and jumped in the bed. Wendy was in between Abbey and I, much to her sadness. I smirked and kissed the tops of both their heads and fell asleep. Though, before I fell asleep, it felt like someone was watching me...

"AAA-CHOOO!" I sneezed. Everyone , except for Terra and Tartaros, that were here last night stood around my bed. My mom, brother, and cousin came back late last night. My mom touched my forehead with the back of her hand and instantly drawing it back with a hiss of pain. "You're warming up." she said. "I feel like shit..." I mumbled with a stuffed nose. Martina and Wendy gave me a bitter smile. Abigail was worrying about me. "He'll be okay right?" she asked concerned. My mom nodded and drew the blanket up till it covered my mouth. "He needs rest. Seems like I'm opening the window slightly. Lucy, can you be a dear and open it?" my mom asked. Lucy nodded, drew up the blinds and instantly shrieked. I gigantic spider web with a black widow on it was on the outside of the door. I inched further away from it while everyone did the same.

"Seems like we're movig him to Martina's room." Mom said. My vousin groaned as we all walked out of my room. As I got out of bed, Erza threw a blanket over my shoulders and Gray grabbed the tissue box. The only one not moving was Delphi who was as pale as me. She was staring at the spider. "You okay Delphi?" Alex asked. She snapped out of her trance and nodded. She glanced at the spider as we all walked out. This time Martina shrieked. We hurried to her room and saw another web covering her window, but this time, a... tarantula was on it!? Then a thought came to mind.

"Delphi... is it her?" I asked in fear. "Sadly yes..." Delphi replied. Abigail looked at me as fear rushed through my being. "You okay? I can sense a wave of fear coming from you." she asked through the mate link. "Sp-sp-sp-..." I couldn't finish what I was going to say before we heard our front door open. We all ran out of Martina's room and looked downstairs. A woman with black hair in a bun, a black dress with the sleeves looking like claws and a spider web design viel that covers the top of her breasts, purple eyes with a spider web design made of white, and spider earings was standing there. (A/N: Imagine Arachne from Soul Eater.)

The woman saw us and gave a small smile. Delphi then hissed like a snake and said "Arachne..." I paled in fear as Daniel, Alex, my mom, and Victoria looked at Delphi in shook. "That's the spider queen! She doesn't look anything like a spider Athena turned her into!" Mom said. Arachne lost her smile and glared at her. "That goddess didn't turn me into a spider. She SAID she did. She gave me powers to rule the spiders and powers of a spider. Plus the venom of one too." Arachne said in a sweet but menacing voice. "Now, give me Robert Wieder. The king of the Phoenix's wants a talk with him. So do I." she said.

Arachne looked at me again and I tried to hide behind Erza. "Robert?" Wendy said. "Seems like somebody has arachnephobia..." Arachne giggled. "S-Stay away!" I yelled at her. "Spiders scare you that much?" Gray said, unbelieving what is happening. "Then you're gonna hate my Spider takeover..." Lisanna mumbled. Then, I felt like I needed to throw up. "Not... feeling... good..." I said, before running upstaurs into my mother's room and vomiting of fear and sickness. Abigail ran in and looked at me. I chuckled darkly and said "Your probably not believing that you're gonna marry a guy as weak as this..." Abigail then said "Hurry up. I'm getting you out of here. The others are holding her off."
