ATLANTIS STORY MAP & OPERATION HOMEPAGE

CHANGE OF COURSE - CH.9

Atlantis has been the subject of countless films, as has Nazi gold and oil polluting our oceans, but never have all these elements come together under one roof as a submarine movie. Aiming for a screenplay 90-110 pages max.

HIGH SPEED NORTH ATLANTIC CHASE TO WARN EXTREMISTS OF DANGER

The Elizabeth Swann had been on foils, with sponsons retracted, for minimum drag, doing 35 knots, with breezes over 40 knots as the wind and currents helped. HMS Neptune upped their speed to begin with, but slowed to 20 knots as Redan Simdo tried to decide if to head into the Mediterranean. 

Red was torn, while not believing John Storm's warning as to radiation leaks, he had a hunch that the famous conservationist would not stoop to double-dealing about something like that. His crew had mixed views ...

Not far off the mark, John was now reinstated as Master & Commander Storm, speaking for the Royal Navy on a temporary basis, but this was becoming more regular with every mission.

NEW HEADING TO STRAIT OF GIBRALTAR

"They've changed course again Skip. Going deeper." ...

The Terramentals change course, diving again, heading for the Straits of Gibraltar. Believing the radiation warning is a ruse.

Disillusioned eco activists are imprisoned by the British, for peacefully protesting in London about unrealistically low fines for oil spills in the North Sea, demonstrating strictly in accordance with their Article 9 and 10 Human Rights. They are targeted by fossil fuel industry fraudsters, who bribe police officials and court judges to secure a conviction, with the backing of corrupt ministers of state who have undeclared personal investments in oil drilling companies: Amoco, BP, Shell, Total. That sets in motion a train of events, where, having been framed, the ever more determined environmentalists build a mini-sub, fast enough and especially equipped, to sink or capture Astute, Aukus and US Seawolf class submarines. Having captured HMS Neptune, the Terramentals torpedo a BP owned rig, also destroying two others (Shell), with the looming threat to target all 150 plus, operating in the North Sea. The oil producers are temporarily forced to shut down production, as a result of the significant media coverage and public outrage on realization of the pollution. The UN asks John Storm to provide a geodata survey on the environmental damage.
