WASP are contacted and told the ocean liner Atlantis has gone missing after reporting the sighting of an ancient sea galleon. The Stingray is sent to investigate. In an unusual move Commander Shore accompanies them on the mission. Stingray arrives at the location to find it shrouded in fog. From nowhere they see the galleon reported by Atlantis. The Commander and Phones decide to board the galleon. Initially they find no one till they encounter a trap set by an unknown creature claiming to represent the underwater people. He explains the purpose of the trap was to destroy Stingray and her crew. The creature then instructs under threat of death to order Tempest to the ship. Shore ignores the threat and instead tells him to attack the ship, in essence sacrificing his own life. Tempest refuses the order, admitting he would rather face a court marshal. Arriving on board, Tempest releases a laughing gas canister, while the underwater being is distracted in a laughing fit Tempest releases the others and captures the creature. Later Tempest is dressed down for failing to obey orders but Shore believes his actions were mitigated by the daring rescue. Written by glen_chapman See less
