Beta sighed deeply and placed her hands high on her hips. The Uchuu had been feeling strange the entire morning. “Beta?” Said Gamma, wandering over to her friend. “Are you ok?” She asked.
Beta closed her eyes and tilted her face down towards her feet. “Yeah, it’s just that… I feel like something watching us.”
“Watching us?” Gamma said, surprised.
“Yeah. What really bugs me is the fact that our UFO’s scanners aren’t picking anything up,” the girl said, opening her eyes and looking towards Gamma. “What really, really bugs me is the fact that my instincts are always right!”
Gamma nodded. “Well if your instincts are right, you should listen to them.”
“Yeah, I’m going to search this house again, ok?” Beta said, and with that the Uchuu headed downstairs, and began searching. She searched each room thoroughly and continued to use the UFO to search for anything that she might be missing, but as the hours slowly passed, the girl was starting to lose faith in her own abilities. “This is driving me nuts!” Beta shouted, jumping on a table. It was at that moment the Uchuu saw something out of the corner of her eyes, scurry away.
Beta ran to the edge of the table and looked down. She spotted a thin looking spider web attached to the table and wall. “What the…” Beta began, suddenly she felt something shove her from behind. With a loud yell, the girl fell into the spider-web, but instead of breaking through, she became stuck.
“What the heck!” Beta snapped. The Uchuu looked over her shoulder and narrowed her eyes. Standing over her was a robot spider. The spider was black and red in color, and had dozens of cameras for eyes.
“Who sent you!?” Beta demanded.
The mechanical spider didn’t answer, instead it inched close to the girl. Finally when it was hovering over Beta, it began tickling the hollows of the girl’s pits. Instantly the tiny Uchuu burst into ticklish laughter and began thrashing wildly in the web. “St- stop it!” The Uchuu struggled to speak, but she was laughing too hard.
The mechanical spider raked its long legs up and down the ticklish pits. After several long seconds of this, it began poking and tickling her ribs and sides. Beta’s body jerked hard as she desperately tried to escape, but the webbing was too powerful for her.
“I’m… going… to smash… you!” Beta cried, through her ticklish laughter.
The spider continued to tickle Beta’s helpless body. It gave her ribs a good tickling, before moving onto the hollows of her pits. Finally it reached for her feet, slipped off her shoes and began torturing her bare soles.
Beta closed her eyes tightly as laughter continued to spill out from her curled lips. “I don’t have a choice… I have to fry this thing!” The girl said. The tiny box on her back opened up and four arms appeared. The first two arms grabbed the mechanical spider, while the last two placed themselves firmly on the mechanical beings body. With a loud boom, a laser shot through the creatures body, destroying it.
Using all four of her arms, the girl tore the metallic spider-web apart and landed gracefully on her feet. Beta took several deep breaths before she turned to the mangled spider robot lying on the floor several feet away.

Alpha had been mulling over her many plans to take over Earth, but each plan she had come up with seemed absurd, and impossible to pull off. “You know what Gamma?” Alpha began, leaning back in her chair. “I’m starting to think…”
“We have a problem!” Beta said, entering the UFO.
“What is it?” Gamma asked. The Uchuu gasped when she saw the spider robot Beta was holding over her head. “What is that?” The girl asked.
“It’s some kind of spy, torture robot!” Beta said. “This thing tickle tortured me, but when I destroyed it and looked it over, I saw it had been recording a ton of footage!”
“How much footage?” Alpha asked.
Beta took a deep breath. “It’s been recording since the day we arrived!”
