‘Stand back! I've got a weapon!’ She yelled. It was only a scarf anyway.

‘It's ok, I'm not here to hurt you, I am just looking for a way out, could you help me?’ I asked desperately.

‘Maybe..! If you do one tinnie thing for me! I may have known this place my whole life but I do need some things around here that I can’t get myself!’

‘Okay…what do you need?’ I asked hoping it wouldn’t be that hard.

‘I need you to swim out under the rock arc and down into a passageway underwater, where there is a cave, it’s a dangerous adventure, but I know you can do it!”

‘But you have all of those diamonds there..’ I pointed to the stash in the corner where I found the silver locket.

‘Uh no, only some are real, the fake ones are on the top so if anyone tries to still them, I know I will get 'em! It sets off a buzzer on this device I hold with me wherever I go, they’re my precious babies so I must not let anyone get to them. And who said anything about diamonds?’ she smirked.

‘The arc won't let me swim past it though!” I panicked.

‘Use the locket around your neck to help you unlock the spell on it’ she winked at me, knowing that it is hers. She gave me a bubble that she made from the pool so I could breathe down there,a glow stick that I can only use to find the door and a knife, don’t know what’s that for, but I hope I don’t have to use it!

I dived in the pool of water and ended up where I started last time, I looked around for anything that I could do with my locket. And then I knocked the rock wall beside me three times in frustration, and then a gold light appeared with a hole in the rock getting bigger, it was the same size as the locket, so I pressed it against the hole in the rock wall and I lighted up and I was pretty sure the spell was broken so I swam forward passed the rock arc and I started my journey. Down the coral reef and past the fishes that swim by my feet I see a passageway leading to darkness. I swam into the passageway with my nose tickling and my feet shaking and my nerves raging. I got closer and closer to nothing in my perspective, I shaked my glow stick and I swam a few strokes and I got to a small door just a bit smaller than my height. A big groaning noise echoed through the passageway and I jumped in shock. I quickly knocked the door three times and again it glowed a vibrant gold and made a shape of my locket, I pressed it against it, and the door opened and I quickly swam inside.
