"Hold on, stop shoutin', I'm comin." Thomas said, carrying around a large and heavy toolbox that if he were to throw around would probably take 'em with it. Thomas was the general technician of the rig. He was sent all sorts of ways just to fix stuff because most other people were nearly completely incompetent.

"Ah shut your gob Thomas and do your damn job." He said before he grabbed a cigarette and leaned on the side rail. "Why the hell are you here mate? All I hear you do is whine."220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqr68276o8I

"Gotta get money some way 'ey Calum?" Thomas said as he was fixing some meaningless piping.
220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn3C98LP3VF
"Rich coming from you of all people." Thomas said as he walked away. "I gotta go up the leg, I got a message over the radio."220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡssNaj6u2HS
220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK2U7LUHPen
"Ight mate, just watch out, I 'eard boss is extra pissy today towards the mechanics."220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2uSp39swYm
220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlW7xWvmBrB
Thomas quickly whizzed around. "What?" 220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUVXyOZdyn6

220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkvG7Oounwo
"What else is fuckin' new." Thomas said before he made is trek up the ridiculously long steps of the leg. The leg of an oil rig is essentially support beams that stretch to the ocean floor. Of course the interior of the leg doesn't reach all the way to the floor, but it goes down a fair distance.
Thomas was unfortunately needed in the Operations Room. "For god... Sake..." Thomas said, as he swung open the door to the Operations Room after his ridiculously long trek.220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv08DfEWSfS

"Some people just take their sweet time 'ey?" The guy dressed in more relaxed clothing stated.220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy04YzDyg7n
220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV5J117ZvJy
"Come on man, tell me the issue before I fill your brain with shot." Thomas said as he lugged his toolbox onto a small table in the corner of the room.220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9cgMJXHIlD
220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWuRsNkE9FO
"A bit hostile for someone so tired. Anyhow, the drill don't seem to be working."220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0C0AiYr7RI
220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrZjeKzF0G5
"What?" Thomas said, clearly irritated. "Why? What do you expect me to do with such shit information?" The man dressed in well clothing chuckled.220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDoC5gF4dI4
220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1K9U9EfmYI
"Sorry, sorry, I shouldn't be laughin'. But that is really all we have mate. It is not workin', and we have absolutely zero idea why, other mechanics are down tryna figure out the issue." So this is what Calum meant by "extra pissy." Because some emu cunt decided to hit and run our drill. 220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd9rhnht3NO
220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡymG1fTCOaB
"I see, I see. My bad, I'm in a bit of a poor mood if you could guess." Thomas said apologetically.220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYzV4BYl7Hb
220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBjqCU6HYJW
"No, no, it's quite alright. Everyone's a bit on edge today."220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5pngXNISRi
220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNFfrcclzQM
"Why did you call me up here if the issue's with the drill?" Thomas asked.220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkR9vPSzvsX
220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3xTYaiceRk
"There's already so many people down with the drill trying to figure out what sent it out into a lazy frenzy, we were curious if you could see if there was some issue below?"220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRbkndOY0MI
220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBoDMKpYYag
"Wha'd you mean?" Thomas asked.220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXRcnn3E2NQ
220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQFRcnqws2d
"The drill is programmed to stop if it encounters an excessively strong material, so while we believe it to be a hit and run by a former employee, we were curious if you could go down the dive bell and check out the dig site."
Sigh.
"It'll be alright kid." The old man said. "I am the man of the dive bell, you'll be 'ight."220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZJCdHgz2wz
220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVo9LpYKX80
"You better. Don't send me flyin' down 'dere alright?" Thomas said, as he got into more proper attire.220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi1HPtBJIZ4
220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsCQqGgFl2Z
"Don't worry, I got ya." The old man said. "My name's William by the way."220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIln9wDB17l
220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjGgEFddJF7
"Thomas."220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjMyXKdesye
220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEyQCUxKZsS
"Right, Thomas, I need you to trust me on this, I got you. I've been workin' here for years, you're in good hands." William said. That isn't necessarily a pro considering your age.
Now slowly descending in the dive bell, Thomas sat for a minute, just gently breathing to himself. It wasn't his first time in a dive bell, yet his anxiety was spiking. He didn't know what it was, but something was making him panic.
Once he reached the bottom, he opened the hatch and quickly swam out to check the dive site. He swam quickly, as he wanted to get out of there as fast as humanly possible. It's programmed to stop if it hits too hard of a metal right? What is too hard for a fuckin' drilll?220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm7YkwZGAOi
220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM8MRLpvRfW
Of course, Thomas couldn't necessarily see all the way to the bottom of the location the drill was digging, so he had to see if he could see any materials or objects from afar causing the issue. Before he enter'd the divebell, he grabbed a torch to illuminate the bottom as much as possible to see if he could even see a fraction of a possible problem.220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvcfixBCTm8
220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSmoAYKYLTJ
"Alright... Let's see what's down here." He said as he shook the torch to turn it on. However, he felt his entire body freeze as he stared down the meant to be gaping deep whole.220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpa3GrjK9iG
220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq8LHmSutp0
"Is that... Man made metal? The drill has dug fartha' than this right?!" Just around 150 or so meters down, he saw a far away metal structure, with what seemed to be a glass window on the top. 220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiNEfKDScKK
220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBADueanFuM
Just then, from afar, he saw a shadow banging on the glass window that somehow rang in his ears despite being many meters away. Without skipping a beat, he swam as fast as he could away until the rupturing banging sound in his ear finally ceased.220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrUchFqneu2
220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdifNz5Aesz
"I gotta... Tell everyone." Thomas said, now heart beating like a rapid drum and his breathing turning rapid.220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpuqecEXwtN
220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjHE0L9L4wW
He swam as fast as he could to the dive bell before swinging open the bottom hatch and climbing up before he sat down.220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDETP9M0IfI
"I am seeing things. I have ta' be- Oh what the fuck am I kiddin', you don't just see that shit!" Thomas said before standing up and rapidly pulling on the rope. Thomas continued to rapidly tug on the rope, to get not a response. The dive bell stayed completely stationary, and he received zero response back on the rope.220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRf3nFu5S6a
"Pull me up ya twat!" He said, rapidly tugging on the rope excessively, much, much more than five times.220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDPdqCRiLmF
220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHHpW6Dh3N5
"I SAID PULL ME UP TWAT!" He shouted, despite knowing not a single soul could hear his constant shouting near 200 meters down. I knew I shouldn't have trusted that rusty old geezer to actually have is head screwed on right. He said, now sitting down, trying to calm down while still constantly tugging on the rope.220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZIzttzAPkz
220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡviUERKFdSD
Just then, he felt a slight shake in the dive bell that quickly turned into a violent shaking, knocking him around all which way, giving him a deep gash in his hand as his hand quickly was pulled off the rope, causing very bloody rope burn.220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgcCXo5yL0J
220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj4HIMK8pUp
"What the fuck is going on up there?" He said in a somewhat quiet but shaky and concerned tone. Once the shaking came to a short halt, he felt the dive bell slowly ascend as his dive bell continued to shake violently, tossing him around every which way. "Holy shit!" He said before his head bashed into the side of the dive bell, knocking him unconscious.220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUxk4ae6Ypw
220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMYN3XbKFK6
Once his eyes opened, the dive bell had stopped shaking, but it felt unstable. Every time he made even the smallest movement, he heard an eerie creak coming from outside. He calmly stood up before he felt his oxygen slowly seep from his throat. His lungs felt empty, his throat closed, and his legs and arms immediately gave up before he fell to the floor once again. Shortly after, he felt air entering his body again, and felt his muscles and blood properly running through his body before his muscles and lungs gained control again. 220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA87b1Igj4y
220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1DaroTZAUD
He stood up one more time before he opened the hatch to the dive bell, still hearing the eerie creaking, and as he stepped outside to an unfamiliar, almost rustic and decrepit metal platform, he looked up once more and saw an absolutely horrifying sight.220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1KTwNMWoJr
220Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7PNjPN2rm6
The sight of his once bright, (of course, a bit of an exaggeration,) oil rig, now rusty and falling apart that looked like as if hell itself had come from the shadows and aged the thing five-hundred or so years, probably even more.
"What... The fuck..."
