Welcome to the club, friend! You are officially a "pantser"! On one hand it's really great when a story takes on a life of its own, but also really frustrating when you're not sure exactly where it's taking you.

My advice would be to look back at what you wanted to do with it when it was a one-shot. Where did you want to characters to get to? What did you want them to learn? What did you want them to achieve? Look at how your story has spiralled and try to get hold of how those new legs and arms fit into your original concept and brainstorm where they might reach as an end-point.

This is what works for me in similar situations, anyway, just taking a step back to get the big picture and trying to see how the dots can join up. Good luck, OP!
