Rude Awakenings

"WARNING! EVACUATE IMMEDIATELY!" The sirens blare and glisten a crimson shade of red, casting a red crimson over the floors and walls. Where is this...? Where is...everyone? 

...

"Get up!-...." The voice fades out as his vision goes black again. "Come on, Zak!-..." His vision goes black again. 

...

"ZAK!" She Cries out one last time. Zak finally wakes up. "What is it, Sylvia-OHMYGOD." The water is flooding the room. As of now, it's at the top of their feet. "We have to go, now!" Yells Sylvia desperately. The room they're in had some futuristic tech walls and stuff. They only had a primitive understanding of what was everything there, so they saved that for later. 

Anyways, Zak and Sylvia run out the metallic door. The door has an odd symbol on it. It looks like writing, but they don't recognize it. It could have be other life. Zak and Sylvia bolt through the dilapidated hallways, taking turn after turn. The water is up to their knees by now. "Sylvia, look!" He points toward a hatch. "If we head there, we might find a way out!" "Good eye, Zak!"

The two climb up the hatch, and turns the valve to open it. It's pitch black out there, and water starts to flood in rapidly. "Zak, we should try that door over there instead! It looks to be the airlock!" She points at the door, with a very delighted, but terrified face. They run to the door and get inside. "Just like you said, it is!" They grab the sets of scuba diving gear. "Let's try the hatch now!" Says Sylvia. 

...

They swim out of the hatch and they see what happened. A gigantic scratch was slashed into the side of the dilapidated base. Whatever it was, it was BIG. "Zak, we should try surfacing to survive! Maybe we can find other life, or land!" "Well, I see we have no choice. 

... 

They swim for about 5 minutes when they finally see the surface. The sun rays shine down into the depths of the ocean, shining a bright glare over their visors. They finally surface....Shoxk and pure terror fill their eyes. "What happened....?!"
