(I explored the Lush Cave we called home, wondering where my older sister is. Sure, I may be a Cave Spider and my older sister is a regular Spider, but we're still sisters nonetheless. Then, I notice her in a massive cobweb - and she was wrapped up in a cocoon made of her own silk.) Mindy: "Hey, Vanessa!" (Mindy looked completely calm, despite the fact she was in a web. I was shocked a little.) Vanessa: "Mindy?! What happened? Is this your silk?" Mindy: "Yes, it is. I'm currently undergoing parthenogenesis."

Vanessa: "Parthenogenesis? What's that?" Mindy: "It's when I can reproduce without mating with a male spider. I've spun this cocoon to protect my eggs while they develop." Vanessa: "Wow, that's amazing! How long will it take for your babies to hatch?" Mindy: "It will take about a month. During that time, I will be unable to move or eat, so I need you to watch over me and make sure no predators come near me. Can I count on you?" Vanessa: "Of course, Mindy. I'll be here for you." (And so, for the next month, I stayed by Mindy's side, watching over her cocoon and protecting her from any danger. It was a small sacrifice to make for my sister and her future offspring.)
