Brandon R. Benjamin

Brandon R. Benjamin has been writing books since the age of sixteen. It all started in eighth grade at Felton Laboratory School in Orangeburg, South Carolina. His mentor and former music teacher, Mr. Donald Lee Jr. inspired him to write and appointed him as a choreographer and co-director for a school play, which Mr. Lee wrote. At that very moment, he wanted to write and put his imagination on paper. He wanted them to come true somehow, so he began writing books immediately after, only to find out that God has given him an incredible ability to construct stories and make them vivid as possible to readers eyes. It was truly a calling from the Lord and he had to follow it. He remember one night, right before he went to bed he was flipping through a magazine and came across an ad that said, “Writing is what some people do best. You have the talent, now put those skills to work.” When he saw that very statement, he took an oath to write stories and show the world his talent. There are some people out there in the world who say, “I can’t do it.” If there’s any teen or an adult that is reading this autobiography, he wants to tell you, “Yes you can!” Never give up and your dreams will come true…His did.

INTRODUCTION

Many years ago, people believed that the forgotten city of Atlantis was only a myth. Researchers, scientists and even skeptics have wandered to the ends of the earth in search for Atlantis, but have failed countless of times. History has proven Atlantis’ existence and its disappearance. Many people wonder where is Atlantis. The Atlanteans cloaked and buried themselves deep under the Atlantic Ocean. Atlanteans weren’t human at all. However, they have the ability to take human form and walk amongst us. Some reports have been classified of people growing scales and having discoloration of a grey and blue skin. Some of the male Atlanteans traveled to the surface and mated with the female humans. The conclusion: they had offsprings, children that were half Human and Atlantean. Atlantis is indeed true and the world will soon know. A new society will rise and two worlds will collide!

Chapter 1:

Vacation? Strange Symbols

It was just another average day in Malibu, California. Researcher, Samantha Cove was in her home office, decrypting a triangular shaped puzzle that she had found in Mexico at the Mayan civilization ruins. Samantha was on the brink to discovering something that no one believed was true. Samantha has two sixteen year-old teenagers, Sean and Rebecca. The two teens are twins and love swimming. The small family lived in Malibu on a huge rocky cliff. On the huge rocky cliff was a mansion, their house. Samantha has made numerous of discoveries, such as Anubis’ Necklace of Immortality, the Orb of Knowledge and the White Diamond of the legendary Pyramidous. As Samantha decrypted the Mayan puzzle, she came across something that didn’t made sense to her. There was writing on the triangular puzzle that looked quite familiar.

I’ve seen this before., she said so certain.

She was puzzled, but also anxious to unlock the mysterious writing secrets. She scanned the symbols and sent it to a specialist, which is a close friend of hers. Once she sent the attachments, Samantha began to felt lightheaded and dizzy. She went into a trance and had a quick flashback of a particular memory. In the memory, there was lots of water and a underwater city. Because of her dizziness, Samantha fell to the floor and nearly hit her head on the desk. She slowly rose back to her feet, stumbling and flicking her hair.

What was that all about?, she said exhaustedly.

When she looked at her laptop, an e-mail arrived from her friend, Stacey. Stacey is the symbol specialist that Samantha sent the attachments to. Samantha opened the e-mail and began to read. The e-mail stated,

"Hello Samantha!

It has been a long time since we have spoken. I have analyzed the strange symbols in the attachments you’ve sent. I must say that I’m very intrigued by these symbols. I have never seen anything like them. However, I have done quick research and I think I know what writing this may be. The mysterious symbols are Atlantean! I know it sounds crazy, but it’s true. The symbols are an exact match. I’ve been informed that you have found the puzzle on an island of the Mayan ruins. I will dispatch my research team shortly. Please, feel free to join us. I know you want to spend time with Sean and Rebecca after all the adventures around the world. Bring the kids along this time. They have never been on a research mission with you. I’ll set my private jet for you three. See you then!

Your friend,

Stacey"

When Samantha finished reading the e-mail, she walked out onto her balcony and gazed upon the sea. She took a sip of her coffee’ and then took a deep breath as she smiled. Sean and Rebecca were in the pool, so she decided to go and tell them the news. The twins were swimming up and down the pool extremely fast. No human could possibly swim as fast as them.

Come on, Rebecca!, shouted Sean as he shook his wet hair. I’ve already swam up and back, like ten times! You still can’t beat my record.

Sean laughed. It was hilarious to him that his sister couldn’t beat his record.

Whatever, said Rebecca rolling her eyes as she reached Sean on the other side of the pool. I so had you in the last round. Care to go again . . . or are you afraid I’ll win this time?

Samantha came to the pool and said,
