Azuki grinned, soon, very soon... he would be able to travel to space!

"And you'll come with me! Who's a good corrupter!" he patted his corrupter on the head, and it gave a sound that sounded like a cat on helium coughing up a hair ball. Azuki gripped the bag holding the pumpkin thing harder, and wondered why it hadn't woke up yet.

Cautiously he opened the bag, and peered inside. He sighed with relief, his prize was still sleeping, quite soundly in fact.

After a few moments, Azuki sensed the unnatural aura of the tunnel to the underworld, and stopped his corrupter mount. He took off his helmet to concentrate, and the tip of one of his fingers started to give off a dark-purple light. He drew a complex symbol in the air, and a large, vertical tunnel appeared in the ground.

He pointed to the hole and uttered a word in some strange language to his corrupter mount. The mount gurgled, and flew down the hole. It became pitch black, and the corrupter started to give off a purple glow, not bright enough to illuminate most of the tunnel, but just enough to see.

It had only been a few moments, when Azuki felt the bag twitch. He opened the bag in a panic. It was just as he had thought, the pumpkin thing was slowly opening it's eyes... or it's eye-like openings at least. Azuki sucked in his breath and watched as it snapped it's "eyes" open and gave out a shriek.

It suddenly sprang out of the bag, and landed directly on Azuki's face. He screamed as it raked at his face using it's hand-like roots, his corrupter didn't notice any of this, as it had fallen asleep mid flight, and what seemed like flying to Azuki, was actually falling.

Azuki wrestled with the pumpkin thing, after a few more scratches, he managed to shove it back in the bag, and tied the bag using a special, corrupted-magic infused knot, the "Corrupter's Intestine."

Azuki noticed a dim, red light at the end of the tunnel, he had finally reached the underworld, as he and his corrupter entered the enormous cavern that is the underworld, he noticed the corrupter wasn't flying strait, and then realized it wasn't even awake!

Azuki tapped one of the corrupter's closed eyes, and it awakened with a jolt, pulled up just before they hit the ground. It started to fly level again, and they set off towards the underworld fortress. 

Soon they approached the large hellstone gates, and before Azuki knew it, he was in the throne room kneeling in front of queen Scarlet, holding out the bag, with a terrified Gourdon shivering inside...

"Here you are... Your majesty."
