To the Bottom of the Ocean

Part 1

Trained from childhood using the PADI (Professional Association of Diving Instructors) system, six friend’s of an already professional group of divers, by the suggestion of Japanese government, gathered at the headquarters of the Blue Avenue Building in Yokohama.

Description of six divers:

Sainami (Ami) – first class professional diver, 23 years old, smart and quite active girl. She accepts compliments from men about her beauty, but categorically disagrees only with the fact that she is perfect, since she knows very well that ideal people do not exist. Knows almost everything related to the underwater world of the ocean. She has long and straight black hair, nice-looking long bangs and charming crystal dark green eyes.

Yutoro (Yuto) – first class professional diver, 24 years old, excellent co

Miumiya (Miya) – first class advanced diver, 22 years old, her main tasks are to monitor the system functioning and manual control of the Lu

Kizeto (Kize) – first class advanced diver, 23 years old, no matter how you look at him, he is handsome from all sides, straight long dark scarlet-red hair and dark red keen eyes like an eagle, looks a bit like a demon in the flesh. There are those who treat him with contempt because of informal nature, but from people he does not know, such an opinion is absolutely all the same.

Nayushi (Nayu) – first class advanced diver, 24 years old, she has curly, medium-length, caramel-blond hair and her eyes are black with a yellowish tint. For some reason, usually she does not talk about her real feelings or experiences directly, sometimes she can only indirectly hint at the truth of her words at certain points, she talks a lot and is inherently frivolous – she is called a man of mystery.

Ryuxaro (Ryux) – first class advanced diver, 22 years old, very cute and stu

During the meeting at the headquarters, divers are going to be offered with a special task, the main purpose of which is to explore the depths of the ocean, unknown to the humanity.

Chapter 1 – Meeting in the conference room

Dr. Otto (dressed in a dark blue formal suit) opens the door to the meeting room, letting six divers in to have a long conversation.

DR. OTTO

Hello and welcome to Yokohama Blue Avenue Building: Ami, Yuto, Miya, Kize, Nayu, Ryux, please take your seats.

Six divers sit down in their seats. Everyone is dressed immaculately in formal suits. There are images of black, white and dark-blue waves drawn on the suits. There are also the rank metal badges of various classes attached to the jackets, which prove their skills and abilities in the duration of various extreme situations.

Among all divers, only Ami, along with Yuto, have the highest professional level with the title of «PADI dive master» and corresponding round metal badges with huge engraved wave in the middle.

Miya, Kize, Nayu, Ryux have advanced levels and round metal badges engraved with a plus and a smaller wave. Each of them stands out only in certain areas of courses with assigned titles:

Kize has – PADI Advanced open water diver, PADI rescue diver, PADI enriched air (Nitrox), PADI peak performance buoyancy, PADI deep diver, PADI drift diver, PADI night diver, PADI Master scuba diver.

Miya has – PADI equipment specialist, PADI emergency first response, PADI dry suit, PADI deep diver, PADI drift diver, PADI night diver, PADI rescue diver, PADI enriched air (Nitrox), PADI peak performance buoyancy.

Nayu has taken the same courses as Miya and Ryux has taken the same courses as Kize, except that Nayu along with Ryux additionally completed a refresher course – PADI Scuba Review (ReActivate).

Five minutes before the start of the main conversation with the divers about the secret operation.

Miya writes down a few secret paragraphs into her notebook, which she wants to tell Ami personally (so that nobody can hear them).

MIYA

(Speaking in a low voice to Ami, and quietly handing her a sheet of notebook with the note)

Take it and read yourself now.

Accepting the sheet of Miya’s notes and reading it, Ami’s expression suddenly changes from normal to surprise.

Only Dr. Otto notices Ami’s expression. With interest and a wide smile on his face, he asks her:

DR. OTTO

Has anything happened to you?

Ami replies with a calm and clear voice.

AMI

(The moment Dr. Otto gets distracted, Ami quietly folds a sheet of paper and hides it in the inside pocket of her jacket)

No, everything is fine.

Dr. Otto, interrupting all u

DR. OTTO

Well… We’ve all gathered here to discuss the proposal to carry out the main mission based in the Pacific Ocean.

Now I am going to tell you about all the pla

Bored with Dr. Otto’s monologue, Kize asks him:

KIZE

Okay, so what about the mission itself?
