The day before we marked our third year on the island, we came across the combinations for the vaults in the Nazi compound. We made our way to the vaults to see what the Nazis had placed in them. What we found surprised us. Gold and silver bars dominated most of the vaults plus there was artwork. There had to be thousands and thousands of gold and sivler bars. This was going to take some time to count the bars. But it was not a priority at the moment. We place the gold we found on the Confederate ship in the vaults for safe keeping.
On our forth Christmas on the island, we were horsing around in the house and somehow open a secret door. We gathered our gear and went exploring.
We took the stairs in the passageway. It took several minutes for us to get to the bottom. We open the door up at the bottom that led into a hallway. The hallway was just about ten feet long with another door. Through this door we entered into a underground base.
It was like a military base. The more we explored, the more we wondered what we had found. We found a generator room that looked like something from a science-fiction movie. We went through the different rooms being amazed after every door we opened. It was amazing. There were things here only seen in the big budget science-fiction movies. And all of this, there was not one single solitare person.
There were so many rooms that after just searching and seeing if anyone else was here was about all we could do . We were getting tired and we really needed to get some sleep. But we had to be sure noone else was here. There was barracks, chow hall, massive computer room, generator room, infirmary and many more. But the strange one was a room with a large metal ring. It was set around a metal cylinder but was able to be pushed out from the cylinder by some type of pistons. The floor had holes about the size of a silver dollar. Looking down in to the hole, we saw the tip of a metal spike. This was a security precaution and it was in front of the ring. That means it was made to stop people from the ring. Could the ring be some type of travelling device. Maybe like a episode from Star Trek. We finish the search in a underground pier with a strange looking submarine. She looked at me and said "Nautilus?". All I could do was nod my head.
We made our way down to the submarine and entered very careful. As was the compound and the underground base, there was noone in the submarine.
The lights would come on as we walk through the submarine. It was like it was ready for a crew to be transferred aboard. We arrived at the bridge, there was a large viewport in the front. The helmsman had a seat up front to drive the boat. I sat down in the captain's chair and all of a sudden the chair leaned back and I saw all kinds of information. I was seeing the information in my mind. I had all kinds of questions and in a split second they were all answered. This was the famed Nautilus. She had been sitting here waiting to be let loose back into the oceans of the world. I even had Captain Nemo's last journal report.
Journal
Today is thirty-first of December of one thousand eight hundred and ninty-nine year of Anno Domini. Captain Pater Nemo reporting. This will be my last report while on Earth. I will be the last commanding officer of the Nautilus and of Atlantis Island. We are being recalled. There is not many of us left in the physical part of the universe. Our numbers are shrinking as many of my people ascend.
The Earth is heading for a global war. We have tried to help but we just do not have the numbers and the time to help.
I am leaving Nautilus and the base ready to accept the next person who activates the command chair of the Nautilus.

Swirls of light, swirls of light, swirls of light

"Well, this is most unexpected. I was expecting someone older. But you will have to do. You and your girlfriend will be changed.", spoke a older gentleman in a unique outfit.
"My name is Pater Nemo and I am a Lantean. We tried to stay and help your planet but my people kept ascending. There are evils out in the universe that will cause Earth and many other planets great loss and hurt.
You and your girlfriend will have your DNA changed and knowledge will be downloaded into your minds.
The island has many mysterious, wonders and dangers. With the modification to both of you, you will not be harmed by the animals unless you pose a threat to them.
You will learn of the different technologies, history and knowledge that you both will need.
Both of you will have to explore the island. There have been visitors to the island. Only a few have ever left. Many have died on the island. Some by the dangers of the island and others by there fellow humans on the island. The two of you are the only humans on the island.
There are no Lanteans on Earth anymore. I believe there are no more Lanteans in the physical form. They have either passed away or ascended. There was a alliance of four great races. They were the following; Asgard, Furlings, Lanteans and the Nox.
The Asgard are in the Ida galaxy. The Furlings and the Nox of the Milky Way galaxy. We, the Lanteans, were from the Pegasus galaxy.
The Asgard have their own problems with the replicators. The Nox have become pacifist. And the Furlings kept moving father and father away.
You will need help, which I hope you both find.
Come speak with me when you have questions, I may have answers for you. Until then good day."
