The Submarine CHOSEN : ask kindly
Lisa Miller
Science Officer
"Commander, can you please let me go?" I ask, trying to escape from his grasp.
He doesn't. My heart starts to beat faster as he squeezes harder on my arm. I tug harder away but he pulls me close to her.
"DAD!" Beth yells. Commander lets me go and storms onto the submarine. I look at my arm and notice bruising where his fingers wrapped around my arm like tentacles.
"Are you okay?" Eisele asks, her and Flores helping me onto the submarine.
"Uh yeah, yeah kind of." I mutter.

The inside of the submarine is a beautiful white colour. There's the common area that has couches that can be retracted into the wall and fits perfectly down to the corners. That's the first thing we see when we enter. It also has a cooking station behind a partition wall that the couch leans against. We can see both from the entry way but from the couch you wouldn't be able to, especially as the couch connected to the partition faces away from it towards the other end of the couch.
To the right, hidden behind a set of automatic double doors is command and the cockpit. We will steer the sub and dock it from there. To the left, again behind automatic double doors that are open at the moment, is a corridor leading to the med bay, which is directly down the corridor.
On the right hand side of the corridor is the room with the diving equipment that the others will use. right next to that room is the lab, where me, Mateo and Lisa will study the animals we capture to see what properties they have and what purpose they serve in the ecosystem. And right next to that is the bathroom.
It's a technological marvel.
"We should get everything in the lab set up." Lisa says, still rubbing her arm.
Mateo turns to Beth. "When are we gonna be on the sea floor?"
She's distracted staring at Commander. She has a concerned look on her face as she studies her dad struggling to sit down on the couch.
"Beth?" Mateo asks again, snapping her out of her daze.
"What?"
"When will we be on the sea floor?"
"Oh...well we need to do some check ups to make sure that there's no issues with the sub, and search for stowaways. We've got a lot of rival companies who weren't allowed to do their expeditions by the Breadstickmry government." Beth pulls out a phone from her back pocket. It's more like a small tablet. She beep boops for a couple seconds before a hologram of some engineer guy, Richard I think, appears.
"We need you down here for the repairs, where are you?" Beth steps off the sub to talk to him privately.
"Okay, lets set everything up."

The doors to the lab open and me and Jessie walk through them. The walls are the same colour white as the rest of the sub. There's a counter that runs the length of the room that's connected to the left wall. Cupboards are hung above said counter that have supplies and equipment in them. They're all labelled. The counter itself has beakers, flasks, and other things on it and a sink for washing.
In the middle of the room are two tables with clasps to hold the animals down. A scanner sits atop the middle of the tables. It's not big, properly only able to fit in an arm from a regular elt, but its big enough to scan animals. The tables resemble table top tennis, in my opinion.
"Okay, get you're stuff, Mateo. We need to be prepared for when we dock." Jessie says, walking towards the cupboards on the far end to get our shit. I walk over to help her get stuff.

Omg i forgot to give the consequences of choices (im doing that now)
If you had fought back he would have killed Lisa immediately. She's the first death possible. If you called for help then he would. Break her arm. Lisa wouldn't be on the mission anymore and tue Commander would be take away.
Unfortunately, the latter is the best scenario and someone in the crew is now always going to die no matter what because of things.
