The Cave 

Despite enjoying himself, Mike concentrated on the mission he’d be tasked with. He shone his spotlight down towards the murky depths below, and with a powerful push of his flippers he began the descent…

As he travelled through the misty waters, Mike started to get a little chilly. He carried on as he knew this mission was important. A couple minutes later Mike came across a little glowing bug. It clinged to the side of his left hand and then glided away as he swam.

Mike had finally reached the bottom of the cave. He now had to find his wife's ring, which is the reason he was there in the first place. Her name was susan. She lost her ring while they were on a cruise. She wanted to take a picture of the several dolphins she had spotted and somehow her ring slipped off and fell into the water. 

I know what your thinking why not just buy another one? Well the ring is actually one of his ancestors wedding ring. The ring has been pasted from from generation to generation and now belongs to Mike and susan. In Fact the ring is made with real gold and lined with diamond pendants which makes it so special.

Mike began to search through the corals, leaving no stone unturned. All of a sudden, out the corner of his eye Mike, he spotted something glimmering under the flashlight. He swam other a lifted up a huge boulder. Underneath the huge rock lived crystals. Mikes eyes lit up. He couldn't believe it.

Soon mike reached to the top. He told his crew members about the amazing discovery he had just uncovered.
