*watches TheRealMe hack away at the webs*
I say, are you sure that's...

...wise. Oh dear.
*pulls out sonic device and activates it*
Right, this should distract them for a while, they'll think all parts of the web are pulling at once. You keep sawing, I'll get twg out of there.

* TheRealMe swings the screaming chainsaw in a wide arc, cutting down more webs and slicing an A.O.U.S. in half, splattering himself in gore. *
Right, then! Get her!

Ew. Slime everywhere. Whoa, many spiders, oh so many. Argh, and little ones too. Yuk.
*finds prone body on bed becoming mummified in threads*
twg? Come on my dear, no time for bondage fun now. Okay, they seem to have paralysed you with their venom, let me see.
*fiddles in pockets*
Aha! *pulls out big needle* Right, this should do the trick. Now hold still while I... well, obviously you're holding still but... never mind.
*a swift injection*
There we go, you should start to regain some feeling any moment now. Might be a little painful but I think it would be an awfully good idea if we left your room now. Come on.

Serenity: Did TWG take my chain saw yesterday?
TheRealMe: TWG must have taken the chainsaw. I'm using it in the Tree to cut her down from the giant spider webs.
Serenity: TRM: Where did the giant spiders come from?
TheRealMe: Not sure, Serenity. When I went to check on her, they were in her quarters, and she was already tied up in them. SimonWho is helping me get her out. Oh, WAIT, there's another! *Sound of chainsaw biting into something fleshy. * My theory is that they are Needle's pets/lunch or Cozenspiders or both.
Serenity: Ew. I don't mind spiders when they're normal sized, but those AOUS are creepy. *shudder* Oh, and TRM, when you're done with my chainsaw, I need it back so I can give Piffle her legs back. It's been fun being tall.
TheRealMe: Tall? Piffle? Huh? Oooop! Another AOUS! * More chainsaw noises *
Serenity: Piff's 5'8"
TheRealMe: Oh, I wasn't questioning Piffle's height, just your method of borrowing it! You took her legs?
Serenity: She lent them to me.

twg is unsure how she got in her room since she was sleeping in the dandelion field when the spiders attacked...but if you say that's where she is, then that's where she is.
*still groggy*
*eyes still blurry, she can make out a tall manly form cradling her* 
Where's the ship I need to pilot?

Okay, anybody whose staying here fancy a swim in that there lake thing just over the over side of the hill?

Any takers?

Soul leads his group of fighters out of the SereniTREE and into the open field, nearly running into SimonWho carrying a very dazed TWG.
"What happened to her?" Soul asks.
"Long story."
"So why are we out here and not getting in one of the shuttles?" Lissa asks.
Soul smiles and pulls a small remote from his pocket. "We're not taking a shuttle." With a press of a button, a building roar begins to echo closer and closer, until a strong wind begins to whip around the group. Above them, the air begins to shimmer, and seemingly out of nothingness, a ship appears.
"Woah!" Jazaf says. "Is that what I think it is?"
"Not quite," Soul replies. "I did a few modifications to the original design, and added some weapons. It's amazing what one can do with boredom and a screwdriver in a junkyard. I had forgtten about this, in addition to most of my life, thanks to my evil side, but now that we're back together, most of my memories are coming back. I figure she'll be handy for this mission."
Everyone watches as the Firefly settles down into the grass in front of them, her engines spooling down, her armaments glistening in the sun.
"Ladies and gentlemen, I call her Destiny."
With a hiss, the cargo ramp lowers, and Soul marches towards it, leading the group into the ship. Instead of pointing out anything in specific, though, he leads them straight to the bridge.
"I was thinking about using one of the shuttles at first, thus my asking for a suitable pilot, but then I remembered about this ship." Soul waves at the walls as they enter the bridge. "We don't really need a pilot, seeing that I found someone in a forgotten thread who seemed like he might be good for the job."
As they enter the bridge, they all stop and stare, and some of them begin to grin. A bundle of wires are running from the pilot's console into the stand that has replaced the pilot's seat. On the top of the stand, floating in a jar filled with some sort of cloudy fluid, is the head of Succatash.
"What are you staring at?" he asks.

Soul (after a long pause): "Yeah. Because I have one."

Unrelated to the plot:
(Okay, now I'm confused. I'm on Destiny and I'm on Destiny. My two Firefly worlds have collided! My head hurts.)

Hello Succatash, so nice to meet you!
*Serenity starts to extends her hand and then thinks better of it and tries to play it off by running it through her hair.*

*stunned silence*
'Must.....resist.....stupidity urge.....!' Jazaf thinks to himself.
Inside Jazaf's mind
A tiny little soldier with the words 'Common Sense' written on his shield, and a large confused beast with the word 'Stupidity' tattooed on it's forehead stare over the chasm of decency.
'Better watch your step fellow ad......' Common begins to say. However, Stupidity interrupts him by absently slapping Common on the back. Common flies over the edge screaming, "Damn You!!"
Back onboard Destiny
'What're you staring at?'
'Never thought I'd see a pilot so a-head of the game.' Jazaf spits out. He quickly covers his mouth and walks off the bridge.
