'Trials of Life'

yes I a sequel already . Don't know how long it will take for me to get through it though...

Chapter 1

It has been a month since they have escaped and Spider had adapted to the outside world quite well. He was leener now, but he was still just as strong and fast as he was before he escaped.
Spider was making his way, with some difficulty, down the river bed. It had rained recently and the ground was all muddy and his pants weren't designed for that type of terrain. The bank on both sides was high, steep and muddy, virtrally impossible for him to climb. He silently cursed himself for taking this route.
"Yer know, a Big Bro could move faster then you right now." Scrawny teased from his perch on Spider's shoulder.
"Ah shuddup." Spider grumbled. Scrawny laughed, but ended up going into a coughing fit. "Yer ok?" Spider asked concerned, ever since they escaped, Scrawny's health had taken a turn for the worst. It didn't help matters any when he lost an eye during the escape. Spider feared his friend didn't have much time left...
"I'm fine." Scrawny said weakly as he rested his head on Spiders shoulder, only to jerk it back up again and look back.
"What's wrong?" Spider said as he stopped and looked over at him.
Scrawny looked intently behind them with his remaining eye. The rain storm that had soaked the land was just over the horizon and its thunder could still be heard. His eye widened with fear as he realized what was coming their way..
"Flash flood." Scrawny muttered.
"What?" Spider asked.
"A flash flood and its heading our way, run!"
Spider complied, but the mud slowed him down. By pure bad luck, he stepped into a particularly deep patch of it and became stuck.
"Crap!" Spider said, panicing as he tried fruitlessly to free himself.
"Leave the pants! Its our only chance!"
Reluctently, Spider seperated himself from his pants and started climbing up the bank. He slipped and sled several times due to the mud. Scrawny looked in the direction of the flood, it was very close now and well be on them in less then a moment.
"Hurry!" he cried.
"I'm trying!" Spider said as he tried deseperately to grab a hold of the top of the bank, but with no luck. Cursing, he reached up, grabbed Scrawny and tossed him up the rest of the way to safety.
It was then that the torrent of water struck him. He tried fruitlessly to hang on to the bank, but the mud was a very poor hand hold. Scrawny could only watch helplessly as the torrent washed Spider away...
