I: Prologue
One day, in an isolated Arizona lab, some workers were working on a tool that could help farmers with the growing pest problems. One lab worker suggested a genetically modified insect. They took that idea after much thought and set to work. The first things they created were distorted grasshoppers that died in the first couple of days. Some fifteen failed attempts, (all resulting in deformed insects) they had a tarantula-like spider that they wanted to use to kill the many invasive insects that were eating the crops. But one worker tripped and accidentally mixed the egg of a black widow and a prototype of the crop spider as it fell in a container. The result was two eggs that fused together. The unsuspecting worker threw the egg mash in the trash thinking they were dead, which was a grave mistake. The egg hatched in three days, and the result was an entirely new spider, which reproduced over a week, and was multiplying. (copyright 9/9/2019)
