Chapter 20
Read chapter 19 or start from the beginning
“Thanks for taking me cave diving. I think I was in University the last time I went diving and that wasn’t yesterday. If what you say is true, no one knows about that spot but us, even better.”
“I’ve been diving there for years. Never seen anyone else. Have you worn a diving helmet before?”
“My dad used to have one when I was growing up. I never used it. Mind if I try it out next time?”
However, the only thought clouding Dempsey’s mind was how to get that woman down there permanently before she ran her big mouth to any more media outlets.
This is a continuation of an experiment. Each week there is a 100 word short story photo prompt challenge posed by Rochelle Wisoff-Fields. My challenge to myself is to connect these photos into one seamless story. Click the blue frog to read other stories inspired by this photo.

I first saw that picture and the first three letters that went through my head my head was WTF. It wasn’t until the next day I thought of changing it up and include a chapter from Dempsey’s point of view, but to try to make it a surprise since we hadn’t heard from him yet.

Yeah, it wasn’t till I finished reading it that it really clicked it was from Dempsey’s POV…interesting. 🙂
