Summary: Ammy and Issun have made it to the Emporor...
---
Issun, perched on Amaterasu's back, let a disgusted scowl cross his face. With Ammy shrunk from her normal wolf-sized body (so small in fact that Issun could now comfortably ride on her back instead of on her brow, where he normally sat), she had dove head-first into the Emporer of Sei'an City's mouth while he slept, expelling the noxious, depressing green mist as he snored.
"This is so disgusting." Issun mumbled. He pointed his caligraphy brush at a bulbous piece of flesh in front of them and said, "What the hell...oh, I get it. That's that dangly thing in the back of your throat. I bet if you whacked it hard enough, the Emporor would sneeze us right out! We should save that for later, though, 'cause we have to get to the source of this mist. Ready, Ammy?"
Amaterasu huffed, giving Issun a puzzled glance.
"That means go, Furball."
The wolf-goddess was off before Issun could realize, travelling down the Emporor's gullet, his snoring raucus and deafening, the sound of his heartbeat drawing louder. In all honesty, Issun was surprised the guy didn't have a coughing fit--having Ammy down his throat must'a been like swallowing a moving dust bunny. Still, if he could sleep long enough to cover all of Sei'an City with his gross snore-mist...
The two came to a stop at a tight bundle of muscles that blocked their path further. "Huh, not gonna be easy making it through there...let's see if there's some other way--"
Before he could finish, a familiar, shimmering light caught his eye. Set to the left of the ring of muscles was a Sun Stone--a flat, granite platform with a glowing mirror affixed to the top. Ammy used these to record her progress, just in case something happened to her...
"What is one of those doing insude some guy's esophogus?!" Issun yelled, his voice almost drowned out by the snoring. "Why?! That's the dumbest thing ever! You can't just swallow a Sun Stone!"
Amaterasu yawned and busied herself examining the Emporor's tonsils. Issun glared at her before sighing and slumping over. "Clearly I'm not gettin' any backup from you, Furball. Okay, okay...deeper we go..."
