You climb in pitch black for what feels like ages. But eventually you feel a hatch above your head.

You listen carefully and hear... snoring.

You open the hatch carefully. Climbing out, you find yourself right behind the enemy, asleep in his chair.

He's ugly, with a small shock of red hair on top of his huge head. His hunched back makes him look a turtle.

There's red rusty mallet in his lap. He stirs as you take it from him. "Who's there?" he grumbles, only half-awake.

"It's-a me, Mario!" you yell, and swing.
