During the season of spring, he witnessed what happened to Tsubaki as she has failed to put a curse on Kikyō with her Shikigami.

The spider demon returned to the cave with his friends as he calls to Onigumo that his "evil thoughts have brought us here". He asked him what does he want, Onigumo answered that he must possess his former mobility. Then the jewel will be his, "not to the mention the lovely maiden Kikyō." Then the spider demon said, "Done. But in return, we will take your soul." Until he and the others have been merged into Onigumo to become Naraku.

Powers and abilities

 * Spider webs: The Small Spider Demon made the webs right above Inuyasha while he's asleep, and makes silk at the cave.

Trivia

 * The Small Spider Demon has three eyes and an Oni like face, unlike the real life s that have two to eight eyes. This appears to be because it is based off a Tsuchigumo.
 * Naraku's monstrous form in InuYasha the Movie 2: The Castle Beyond the Looking Glass, resembles a larger and more monstrous version of this demon.
 * While unstated, the anime implies he would go on to become the dominant personality among the demons; meaning that the Small Spider Demon was Naraku from the start. Befitting all the spider themes that followed.
