Jorōgumo's bamboo forest possessed a nightmarish aspect that sent cold shivers down even the young yurei's spine. As she wove between the webs, careful not to disturb them or their inhabitants, her footsteps left a path of frozen and crushed foliage she could follow outside. 'Will you walk into my parlour?' said the Spider to the Fly. Dustin was the fly, and Jorōgumo the spider, so where did that leave Miyuki? The yuki-onna was not entirely sure as she entered into a circular clearing.
Her friend was strung up by strands of white silk and partially encased in the webbing. His skin was punctured with swollen bite marks where aunt had injected him with her poison. Miyuki could recognize Dustin, but his body had become feminine with small breasts resting against his chest, a curved waist, and many other details leaving no doubt he was changing. Both his testicles and cock had retreated into his crotch as they prepared to change into a different sex, but the member was persistently erect as Dustin tried to keep as much of his manhood for as long as he could.
Miyuki covered her mouth with the sleeve of her Miko outfit as she tittered. There was no escaping a yōkai's curse and punishment.
Jorōgumo turned to the newcomer, the spider legs extending from her arachnid lower body clicking against the bamboo stalks, immediately recognizing her sister's daughter. "Wercom niece," a chitinous clawed hand continued to tear at Dustin's cocoon prison to free him, "am startin next saege. You too future daughta, say herro to you friend." All Dustin could manage was a weak groan before he realized what his jailor had said. Embers of life returned to his glazed eyes as he inspected Miyuki for any signs of Paul or Kip.
Miyuki greeted them both by kneeling and lowering her head. "Dustin, rong time no see. Kimiko send her greetin. We ae only waiting for you." She captured him as Jorōgumo cut the last string holding him in place, treating him to her cold embrace as she eased him down to the floor. He looked so frail like this, like an easily broken icicle. "But you ae bad girr. So aunt an I disciprine you. "
