It took literally all she had to manage to scale the leg, and she knew that she'd have to have at least three showers after this to make sure she was clean from whatever was fucking with her, but she wasn't worried about tha tfor moment. For that matter, she had no idea if she would have a chance to clean up, so ehs didn't want to dwell on a possibile.

Once she'd managed to finally get to the abdomen, she stayed low as she planned out her next course of action. She had no idea what would be a good idea, after all.

After a few, she got a bit of an idea.

What if she managed to get its mouth open, so that she could throw the dagger, or have ADym fire a few arrows down there? Internal damage, and all. With that in mind, she started to make its way to the head, hoping that this wouldn't go sour.

---

Callie barely heard Adym's call for her before noticing the spider onslaught.

"ohhhhhh fuck." She said quietly. She, of course, had no idea how to handle this. There was very little she really could do, but the main thing? Was just persevere.

As the spiders reached her - or she reache dthem, it wasn't easy to determine that - she hacked and slashed at those she could reach. Sadly, she did get a couple of bites, but managed to ignore them and press forward, aiming for the 'face' of the one she was on, hoping to do something while there. As she moved, she kept killing the little ones though, knowing that they would be issues if she didn't.

---

Callie had to hold fast to not be thrown up, but due to the three bites she'd sustained (albeit, only one was particularly 'bad', the other two were far more superficial) and the blood loss that was a result, she couldn't hold well.

She went flying off of the back of the spider, and hit a tree trunk rather solidly. Her left shoulder took the brunt of it, and she landed on all fours... but not very gracefully at all.

"Nng..." She groaned as she managed to get back up to her feet - albeit with a bit more effort than it would normally be.

---

Callie watched Adym be thrown to the side, concern in her face and thoughts before freezing as something else flashed through her thoughts.

---

"Calysta! What are you doing!?" A sharp voice echoed through the area. The small girl froze as she heard it.

"I told you not to run off!" A young man with blue eyes and brown hair said as he approached. He had a very prim and proper look to him, but also an element of being down to Earth and comfortable.

"I..." the child said, her blue clump of hair rather apparent.

"Sorry..." She said quietly, looking to the ground, ashamed.

The man just sighed before holding a hand out to the child, but she never got a chance to accept it. Moments later, someone came tearing through the area, and right for the pair of them. He wasn't quick enough to grab the girl before they had both been shoved out of the way, and she hit the tree that was a foot or so behind her, and hard enough to make her see stars.

---

"CALLIE!" Adym called before she shook her head. Just in time for the spider guardian to come for her.

---

Callie let out a cry as she was picked up by the spider. She didn't know what the hell it was that she could do here, but at least she was alive. If nothing else, there was that.

She hurt like nobodies business, but thanks to everything she'd learned from her Dad growing up. He'd made sure she lived a survivalists life for the summer holidays off from school, and as a result her pain tolerance was rather good. Not paying attention to what it was that was going on, entirely, she managed to squirm her hand up with the blade, and just stepped up thgrough the top of the spiders mouth, hoping that it would drop her, and hoping it was ad ecent amount of damage to it.

---

"For the moment? yeah." Callie answered as she got off of Adym and to her feet. She held a hand out to Adym, helping him to his feet too before looking to the pained, screeching, creature.

". . Now here's teh question. did I cause enough damage to result in its death? ... or did I just piss it off?" She asked after a moment or two, her voice defensive still. It wasn't hard to tell that she was ready to continue if need be, but also pained.

"How are you doing?" She then asked him, as they had a moment to breath.

---

Callie was silent for a moment before nodding.

"I'm decent with a bow, but there's no way I can aim that well." She told him honestly.

"How do you propose we do that, though? I'm curious."

---

"So you intend to bring it down to our level?" Callie asked.

"Because... the eyes are on top of it." She added before taking her bow off her back and firing a couple quick arrows at the spiders that were coming for them.

"I'll do whatever you think would be best. I'm not the best in a fight, ad mittedly." She added with a light sigh. "I know how to survive, but that's abotu it."

---

Calliew as silent before sighing. She had no ideas, and he at least had some - which was most certainly better than she was doing.

"Yeah, can do as good as I can." She said.

"I can't promise that we won't be swarmed though." She added as she continued to fire off arrows.

"Although I may run out of arrows. There are a LOT of these little fucks."

---

Callie accepted the arrows and nodded.

"All right." She said before doing as she was told. She had no idea if this would work, or if there was anything that could happen. She had no idea. There was no way for her to hope to know.

Sure enough, the first arrow she let off up there didn't seem to do anything aside from aggravate the spider. As its attention was turned to them better, it let out a screech of irritation and frustration before closing the distance between them and it. Callie didn't hesitate before firing another arrow, this time it hit it at the mouth, and blew.
