The City Underneath The Deepest Lake In The World

I woke up inside a transparent bubble stuck deep into the soaked sand.
I felt dizzy,exhausted,confused,frustrated and angry all at once.
I tried to swim back up back got pushed back by the bubble.I gasped as a pair of mermaids swam up to me.They opened their mouths but didn’t make sounds,sorta like fish.
Instead they beckoned me toward them.I slowly, cautiously swam forward.
They passed me my oxygen tank.It waas filled with pure oxygen.I guess I could trust them…Instead of taking me up they gagged me and tied me with rope from and anchor.I was shocked and scared.
The mermaids brought me to a mermaid palace.Home of the mutant fish-people.
They shoved me in front of their king so that I bowed underwater.The mermaids said something to the king and I guessed it wasn’t good and it had something to do with me because after they told him watever it was they were saying,the king glared at me which made me really nervous.
The king brought me into a room teeming with torture devices.It was gonna be a long day.
