You decide to hold your ground, even as the spider cats first crowd around your feet and then begin to climb up your pajama bottoms. They cover your entire body, purring happily the whole time.
It is probably the worst thing that has ever happened to you.
Then they begin to chant, and you cannot decide if this is better or worse. They chant the following:
Spider cats
Spider cats
Do whatever spider cats do
And, gradually, you feel yourself changing. Eventually, you even feel yourself humming along, and then chanting along. But you don't recognize your voice. Then, as the spider cats disperse and you look down at your eight new legs, you understand.
You understand everything.
The End.
