The Stolen Trident: Chapter 11

''' Chapter 11 '''

''' We Reach The Lost City '''

We were so short on time that we didn’t stop on our way to Tampa Bay. It was Thursday, tomorrow, Poseidon would flood the Earth. When we got to Tampa Bay, we came across a problem; we didn’t know where to look. We decided to go look by the water. Zach stepped into the surf, and closed his eyes.

“It’s here,” He said, “I can feel it.”

We had a quick meeting, we decided that Zach, Crystal and I would go to Atlantis, Joe, would stay up. Zach gave Crystal and me out scuba masks, and we dove. We held onto Zach as he used his powers to propel us towards a glow in the water. The lost city of Atlantis. As we descended deeper into the depths, I saw something big, and powerful move, but I must have imagined it. We reached the gates of the city. There was a riddle on the door.

Only one may enter the lost city

The other two must turn to the shores

An hour’s worth of time allotted

<p style="text-indent: 0.5in; margin: 0in 0in 10pt"><span style="line-height: 115%; font-family: 'Tahoma', 'sans-serif'; font-size: 20pt">“You two go back, I’ll find it.” I said.

I pushed open the gates and swam in. I figured that the Trident would be hidden in the palace, because waves of energy were surging through the water. I reached the place, and entered. There was a plastic case in the center of the hall. I swam towards it. I pulled Felonious out and broke the case. I grabbed the Trident. I felt all powerful, this thing was powerful. I soon realized I had little time left, maybe even time has ran out. I swam to the gates. To my horror, the gates were almost closed. The Trident propelled me to the gates at top speed. I managed to get through the gates, just before they slammed shut. Grinning, I ascended to the shore.
