Chuih blinked. Not that this was any astonishing achievement, I assure you. It is yet a descriptive detail in the actions of Hunter Chuih, our main protagonist (who could forget). Summoned by the great Principal Tyrell (That's Me!) to discover the causes of the atrocities on Ragol, Chuih has devoted his life to find Red Ring ChuPea. His obese sidekick, RAmar ChuBei, and his soul brother MAG, had joined his quest, along with the mysterious android hunter ChuBach. A race against time and horrid abominations, can Chuih figure out the secrets of Ragol in time?!

With that recap on the prior chapters completed, let us move along with the plot. Chuih did blink, as he stared upon the mysterious scene. Deep within the belly of moss-coated caverns was a transport docking station, which lead to an Underground River. There was a dead Chu chu, a missing raft, and a sign over the ticket machines welcoming the trio to Disney World. Something was amiss indeed.

"Woohoo! Disney World!" ChuBei cried in pleasure.

"This ain't no Disney World tubby. We're miles below the surface of an alien world inhabited by various monsters! Disney World, this aint!" MAG bleeped.

"Well, my spider senses are telling me to go through this tunnel! You'd think that there'd be a transporter that would instantly take us there…" Chuih interrupted.

WOOF!

The three jumped right out of their pants. They turned to see a dangerous sight. A black hound wagged it's tail excitedly.

"Ah, a puppy!" Chuih's eyes sparkled.

"Wait mah brotha! That's the Black Hound! He'll rob you of your sanity, then your soul! Damn! I'm becoming more and more black every time we speak!" MAG explained.

"…Somehow I imagined him taller, and less cute…and purple, and an android with a big scythe… Y'know, like ChuBach…" ChuBei nodded.

"Hey! We need to get on the boat before we're robbed of our sanity and our souls!" Chuih darted into the pipe. The others soon followed.

Without hesitation, they grabbed a rather large raft and took off, leaving the black puppy at the station to nibble on the carcass. Good puppy.

"That was close…" Chuih sighed as the raft sped speedily down the dark river.

"It's a good thang these come with motors." MAG stated.

"Uh guys…I don't think we're out of the water yet! Look!" ChuBei commanded.

A dark figure lied just underneath the murky surface, resembling a really big worm. The shadow splashed out of the river, revealing the De Rol Le, a really big centipede with flippers and a dolphin's skull for a head. Hey, you've played PSO, you know the De Rol Le. The thing sounded out a high pitch roar, and then splashed back into the water, making a hot pursuit for the raft.

"And it's time for the most annoying fight in the game…" MAG moaned.

The De Rol Le lunged forward, latching onto the raft side. Chuih sprang forth, slicing and dicing with his BRAND +4 as ChuBei fired strategically with the SHOCK RIFLE +4. The thin, yellow tentacles erupted from the water, striking the raft's top in several places. One managed to strike Chuih, who comically fell down. Chuih got back up.

"OH CRAP DOOD! NOW I'M GOING TO MUTATE AND STUFF!" Chuih yelled.

"…No. you just took some damage." ChuBei reassured his friend. The De Rol Le slid off the starboard and towards the rear, where it raised it's ugly self to an incredible extent, an amazing foot! Purple aura surrounded it's jaws as what we like to call a "laser beam" was being formed. Chuih and ChuBei ran around like crazed mice in a circle as the "laser beam" shot after it. The De Rol Le, after a few minutes, vanished into the water.

"Chuih?" ChuBei called out to his partner as they ran around in circles.

"Yea?" Chuih called back.

"I think we can stop."

"Alright."

As the two mice reorganized themselves, the giant centipede came into view. However, this time it was crawling along the cavernous roof. Large boulders fell from the dark sky. The two once again proceeded to run around with their heads cut off.

This went on for a while. The patterns of the De Rol Le versus the random idiocy of the Hunters. This tunnel never seemed to end. But eventually…

"Hey look! There's the next docking station!" ChuBei cried as he fired into the gaping maw of the arthropod.

"Alright! We can escape through there!" Chuih shouted with glee.

The two were without monomates. Battered, scarred, and overall beaten like a rubber chicken, the Hunters managed to slow the raft down and fend off the hungry De Rol Le long enough to reach the dock. But another figure was there already.

ChuBach had just finished using his key to open the doors. Beastly cries gave to ChuBachs curiosity. He glanced back to the station to see the giant arthropod and the Hunters from before.

"Beta 772" ChuBach whispered.

Suddenly, the android launched itself onto the raft, taking Chuih and ChuBei by surprise.

"Yo--------u t---------o ge-----t mo-------ving. I'll ha-----ndle this!" ChuBach showcased his new toy, the Gigush, a ridiculously long weapon that could break anything within eyesight.

"Thanks ChuBach. We'll be seeing ya!" ChuBei smiled as he ran towards the door.

"I'm sure you can handle him!" Chuih patted the android on the shoulder as he made tracks.

The two turned towards the action once that had climbed the stairs and were inside the doors. ChuBach flung his Gigush at the monstrous monster. The battle took to the river as ChuBach started the raft. Beta 772 took after it like a fish on a hook as they descended down stream.

"Well…um…where are we?" Chuih looked around.

"The Mines." ChuBei answered.

"The Mines?! What a gay name! This doesn't look anything like a mine! It's so bright, it's like playing super magnetic Neo!" Chuih complained. Yes, the two were in the "Mines". A technological factory brighter and more colorful than Las Vegas and Austin Powers combined. Yes, it is possible.

"Well, here's to the mines! YEA BABY!" A flash occurred and Chuih and ChuBei both reappeared with giant feathery hats, long colorful coats, and enormous shoes. Disco rocked the background as the Hunters began their funkadelic journey into the mines.

"Oh, we should have a victory routine! POGs?" ChuBei remarked.
