Abyssal Salvation; Under Black Waters

,

Summary:

Selene Astridonis, a seemingly normal girl from Brazil, finds herself in prison.. on death row to be exact. She never thought, at the ripe age of 20, this would be her fate. She would rather not disclose exactly why she got into prison, though she has no clue why she was put in death row. Sure, she had committed murder, but that was one count. Multiple other charges were put against her, and now this is her predicament.
She is miraculously approached by two people who promise her freedom. However, her one hope at salvation comes with a price.

This work is now being continued despite the big misunderstanding about Zeal. If you believe this to be controversial, do your own research and look at all the viewpoints. Thank you all.

Chapter Text

 

 

“What do you mean they’ve decided to retry the experiment?”

“Like I told you, they got a new prisoner in that they said would be the ‘new candidate’ for the ‘Gill Project.’”

“Didn’t it completely fail last time they tried that? The subject in question literally released almost every damn entity held here.”

“I’m not the one to talk to about that, man. I wasn’t even there during that. Either way, we’ve got orders to prepare the Dry Cell next to Operation Sect 3. Our supervisors will deal with the Water Cell as well as the Acclimation Tube.. for a change.”

 

The two lesser employees of the facility walked to where they were ordered, sighing to themselves occasionally as they proceeded.

How stupid could Urbanshade get?
