Devil Boy Destroys the Universe! R

Kera begins regaling Devil Boy with the time she came down here with Nester, ending her speech with, "...but he was too much of a wuss to go very far. I mean, the corridor never even forked, for crying out loud! We had to crawl all the way back up to our rooms..." (at this, she leans in an whispers to Devil Boy) "...and I think he was sniffing the fork of my tail part of the way."

Devil Boy grimaces. With a look of confidence (probably realizing she could play off of his pride), Kera bellows, "...but I KNOW with YOU here, Devil Boy, we'll get to go wherever this corridor goes!" and she takes his arm like the typical "chaperoned female", making him involuntarily puff out his meager chest.

"Yeah! We'll go wherever you want, Kera. I'm here, so you'll be a-okay." Devil Boy says, beaming with arrogant pride. Nester shrinks to the rear, but follows close (probably out of being a worry-wart).

The corridor seems to go on in the same direction for what seems like forever until the party arrives at a tall black-iron door. Devil Boy pulls on it, only to discover it's locked. "DAMN it! Here we come all this way and whatever asshole dug this corridor set up a big-ass door to block our way!! Thanks a lot, Kera!" Devil Boy yells.

"HEY!" she says, insulted.

"Wait a second, guys!" Nester face has lit up. "Whenever something like this happens in my games, there's usually a hidden key somewhere! All we have to do is use what we know of the guy who made the corridor and we'll probably find the key!"

"That sounds stupid, Nester," Devil Boy returns, always the optimist.

"Hold on there, Mr. Steamy-Pants. I think he may have something," Kera says. "So what do we know, Nester?"

"Simple. He's a tunneler. So the key is probably..." Nester begins turning aside rocks near the walls. "...right HERE!" Nester unearths a black-iron key behind a small boulder with a space dug out in back of it.

"Great. I'll never hear the end of this." Devil Boy rolls his eyes. He snatches the key from Nester and inserts it in the black-iron door's keyhole, and turns the lock's tumblers with ease.

"Hmm... the plot thickens!" Kera grins a devilish grin.
