The Leviathans tooth
On the bottom of the Mariana Trench lay something mysterious, and Dr. Park and his team had to discover what lay down there. In Dr. Parks team there was Josh, who was a scientist. Then there was Sam, an engineer. And finally, there was Flora, a professional swimmer from Sweden. Dr. Park and his team already had brainstormed about what they will do, but it wasn’t secure enough. The Mariana Trench was about 11000 meters deep and it is located in the Western Pacific Ocean. The seawater descends all the way to -2 degrees. It will take approximately 4 hours to reach the bottom, so they will need a full supply of oxygen tanks. Once they have finished with the plan, they start preparing everything that is necessary for the journey. They will depart first thing in the morning.
On September 16, 2001, as the sun rises, they get ready. Dr. Park and his team enter in the submarine and submerge into the water. Everybody is tired but they know that this is important. The 4 hours start, with nothing to do, Dr. Park puts the submarine on Auto Pilot and takes a nap. When they wake up there is 2 more hours left until they reach the bottom. As they wake up they notice something passing by them but don’t take it seriously. As Flora was reading the news, she announced that there was a million-dollar award for who finds a tooth of the Leviathan, one of the most dangerous sea creatures. While reading further she finds out that that they have much bigger problems. She reads that inside the Mariana Trench lives the Megalodon, the Leviathan and the Kraken. That’s much of a bigger problem compared to running out of oxygen or food. As they descend even further down, they experience some shaking and see some weird sea creatures, but they don’t really notice the submarine. In a distance Sam sees something horrifying and tries to tell his team, but they don’t believe him. He tells them again as the Megalodon is rushing towards the submarine. The Megalodon crashes into the submarine and jams his teeth into the glass. Everyone starts panicking, water is starting to leak, everybody is terrified and doesn’t know what to do.
They are forced to evacuate, not having completed their mission. As they reach their base, the understand that the submarine damage is permanent. They are not giving up on finding the Leviathans tooth, so they had to find a way to get a new submarine. Even though they knew that the damage was permanent, they tried to find resources that they could use in their basement to repair it. They didn’t find much that would be useful to repair their submarine, although they did find three parts of a windshield that had to be put together, and hopefully it would fit on the submarine. Once they put the parts together, they carried it up to the damaged submarine and tried to install the glass. At first it didn’t fit but luckily after multiple tries it fit. After having repaired the windshield, they tried to find any other harms and found a crack in the main engine. That was a big problem. They went back to the basement to find anything that they could use to repair it. They found some wrenches and screwdrivers, and some impact drivers. As Sam was an engineer, he helped the most to repair the engine. It was quite complicated for him, but he managed to repair it, and their submarine was ready to go.
The next day, two days after their first attempt to acquire the Leviathans tooth, they are ready and set to go. Dr. Park and his team, submerge into the water, safely, hoping that nothing dangerous will happen this time. They decide not to take a nap like they did last time, because they can’t afford to miss anything important. They are also aware of the other people that they saw last time. As they descend deeper, there are about 3 hours left. They decide to take a nap again, although somebody must stay on the lookout. Josh says he can stay awake, as he already had about 3 cups of coffee this morning. 1-hour passes, nothing has happened yet. There are about 2 hours left, as Josh notices something in the distance, and hears squalling noises far away. He has no idea what it is, so he wakes up the others. Sam, says “Maybe, you are hearing some noises, get some rest I will be on the lookout.” Josh disagrees with him and is telling him that he is saying the truth. Some seconds later the noises are heard again. Everybody heard them this time and wonder what they are. Dr. Park wants to get closer to find out what is making this noise, but everyone disagrees, saying it might be dangerous. Josh blocks the control panel of the submarine, so Dr. Park doesn’t get closer to the noises. But while blocking it, he accidentally presses and engine button, and it makes a big and loud sound.
Dr. Park, quickly turn it off and starts scolding him for what he has done. A minute later, out of nowhere, the submarine is surrounded by something. Flora realises that it’s the Kraken, and its tentacles are around the submarine. They start getting tossed around and then thrown above 2 or more meters, and then hardly land back in the water. Sam has an injured ankle, Flora is bleeding, and Dr. Park is laying unconscious on the floor. Josh is the only one who isn’t badly injured but doesn’t know what to do. He is terrified, as he quickly reaches for the first aid kit, finding band aids for Flora, stopping the bleeding. Then he gets ice for Sam to help him with his injured ankle. Now Flora and Josh must focus on Dr. Park. Flora measures his pulse, as he is barely breathing. Flora starts CPR, hoping that it will help, Josh puts some ice on his forehead, to cool him down. After some minutes of treating him, he wakes up. They are so happy that they didn’t lose him, or else they couldn’t have gotten back up to their base. Dr. Park takes control of the submarine, quickly escaping from this terrifying creature. They manage to get back to land, not having found the Leviathan, again. This time there is no serious damage only some minor cracks, Sam fixes them easily. They will definitely not depart again tomorrow, maybe in 2 weeks, as everyone needs to heal, especially Sam, which his fractured ankle.
After 2 weeks its already end of September and the weather is getting colder every day. The submarine is set. But the team understands that this will be their final attempt of getting the tooth of the Leviathan, as the submarine has been damaged multiple times. Sam ankle has finally healed, and they are ready to enter the submarine. Before submerging fully into the water, they organize the objects that fell down while the Kraken was throwing them around. Once they clean up everything, they are ready to go, and they finally start moving. They try to pay maximum attention, not sleeping at all during this ride. Three hours pass and they are almost at the bottom of the ocean. At 1 km more to go, Dr. Park notices something unknown on the submarines radar. It doesn’t look really big, something like the size of their submarine. Some kind of big light turns on in the distance, the object gets closer to them, and they realize it’s another submarine. Flora tells Dr. Park that they are also probably trying to collect the Leviathans tooth. A high pitch noise echoes; it is the other submarine on speaker trying to talk to Dr. Park and his team. They say: “Hello, I am Dr. John, me and our team mean no harm to you guys. We are on the hunt for the Leviathans tooth, flash your lights twice if you guys are also on the hunt for it.” Dr. Park flashes the lights two times. Dr. John continues: “As we are both trying to acquire the tooth, how about we help each other find it, and then we split the money between us all.” Dr. Park asks his team what they should do, they nod having no idea.
Dr. Park takes the risk and agrees to their favour. Dr. John’s submarine starts moving and Dr. Park follows him. They have been following Dr. John and his teams submarine but not has occurred yet. Everybody is on the lookout for the Leviathan, as they are 20 min away from the bottom of the ocean. Once they reach the bottom of the Mariana Trench, see a massive group of fish and shrimp getting closer to the two submarines. After some multiple second something enormous starts circling Dr. John’s submarine. Sam sees it from a distance and realizes that it’s the Leviathan. It goes around tighter around the submarine and starts squishing it and bites the glass. A bunch of water starts leaking into the submarine. Dr. John and their team rapidly put on oxygen tanks and try to escape. But the Leviathan didn’t let them go, he just swallowed them one by one, and the submarine sank. It hasn’t noticed the other submarine yet, so Dr. Park quietly tries to escape from it. Although it noticed the submarine and starts rushing towards it. Before the first attempt of collecting the tooth, Sam had installed secret guns into the sides of the submarine, in case something like this happens.
As the Leviathan gets closer to them, Dr. Park fires the guns, and they start shooting the monster. At first it doesn’t really do any damage to it, but it prevents it from coming closer to the submarine. As the guns are almost out of ammo, everyone prepares 2 harpoons each with explosive arrows, hoping that this will stop this beast. Dr. Park takes the submarine further from the Leviathan and put their oxygen tanks on. They each exit the submarine, and each start firing their harpoons. The monster starts getting damaged and starts squalling loudly. It starts swimming away, while Dr. Park still hasn’t fired his last harpoon. He hits it right below the head, and it collapses.
Dr. Park drives the submarine closer to the Leviathans to see if he killed it for sure. Flora puts on her oxygen tanks and exits the submarine trying to see if inspect the monster. Flora tells them by using signs that everything is okay and that the other can get out safely. Everybody leaves the submarine one by one. They get closer to the monster and start inspecting it closely. Dr. Park says that he is for sure dead, and that we can try to get the tooth. Josh, Sam and Flora open the beast’s mouth, so Dr. Park can reach the tooth. Once they open the mouth, they see hundreds of layers of teeth. Josh has an idea to take not one tooth but at least half of them, maybe they will get a higher amount of money. Dr. Park cuts under the teeth, and takes tooth by tooth, calmy, to not damage anything. Once he gets an enough number of teeth they are ready to go. They all board the submarine and get ready to go back to land.
Once they get back to land, Flora finds the poster that had the award for finding the tooth of the Leviathan, and on it they see a number to call. They call the number, and it picks up, “Hello, have you found the Leviathans tooth?” Flora who is talking with the person says yes. “The person continues: “You can meet me tomorrow; I will send the meet up location”. The unknown person has sent the location and its all the way in Florida. Their base is located in the middle of the Pacific Ocean and that is a long way until Florida. They decide to get some rest and depart tomorrow afternoon. The next day they spend their morning getting necessary supplies and everything they will need because it will be a long journey. They will be travelling there by boat, and it take about 2 or 3 days. 2 and a half days later...
Once they arrive in Florida’s port, they park their boat, and Flora navigates the location where they have to meet up. Sam has a rich friend living in Florida and he agreed to give them a ride. Sams friend, Max, drives multiple cars, usually supercars, but he has some bigger cars for when he has company. When they arrive at the location, which brings them to a warehouse, not big nor small, they call the guy and he comes outside. The person introduces himself in the name of Arthur and shakes Dr. Parks hand, he tells them to follow him. They follow him inside the warehouse, and there are rows of supercars on one side, and a bunch of junk on the other side. He asks:” So, may I see the Leviathans tooth.” Flora responds:” We have collected much more than one.” Arthur is surprised. Flora shows him the teeth and asks for the million dollars. But Josh adds:” But, since we have collected multiple teeth, does the prize become bigger?” Arthur responds:” Ummm, I’m not sure, you guys can have a look around the warehouse, I will go get the prize money. Arthur starts running to one of his cars and starts riding away.
Dr. Park and his team split up into two cars. Josh and Flora go in one, and Dr. Park and Sam go into the other. The keys of the cars were sitting on a table right in front of the cars. They rapidly follow Arthur, they keep driving for about 20 minutes, until Arthur drives into a dead end, and they block the way. They get out of the car, and so does Arthur. Dr. Park asks:” Why are you running away?” Arthur responds:” Because you guys have multiple teeth, but then the reward has to be bigger, but don’t have that much money. Dr. Park says:” We can give you one tooth, and give us the million, then we will figure out what to do with the other ones. Arthur nods his head and agrees. They follow him back to the warehouse, and he gives them the one million dollars, and in exchange Flora gives him the tooth.
Dr. Park and his team discuss what should they do, Josh comes up with an idea of giving the teeth into a museum, which will probably pay them money. Sam calls his friend again to give them a ride to the museum. Once they are at the museum, they enter and ask to talk with the manager of the museum, they tell him that they have found many teeth of the Leviathan and if they would want to put them on exhibition, possibly for money. The manager agrees and they sell the teeth to him for 5 million dollars. Everybody goes home to their family and friends, which each having shared 1.5 million dollars.
