Everyone are already asleep except for one, the captain, he felt uneasy causing him not to sleep. He decided to watch the night for a while. For about 10 mins. watching he was about to turn back but saw strange lights, dancing, over the horizon. The sight was captivating and he never looked away. He started shouting orders that woke every crew on deck and below deck. The ship was then put on course to the horizon, wishing that an island might be there, its been months since they saw land. Then dawn came, a small ray of sun light is visible, the captain looked back again, and saw glimpse of unusual creatures. They are undescribable, some were huge, gigantic even others smaller, and one looked at him that cause him to move back a step. He suddenly realize that the island was slowly vanishing. A mirrage, he thought, after the island was gone. He then faced all his crew that are now on deck and started giving instructions to find land. The captain didn't say anything but the crew has their own way of passing-up time. The captain went back to his quarters and started writing everything he saw to his diary to remind him it wasn't a dream. It was something to be remembered and one day be discovered in the future.

It is also home to some of the deepest underwater trenches in the world; wreckage could settle in a watery grave miles below the surface of the ocean. Most of the sea floor in the Bermuda Triangle is about 19,000 feet (5,791 meters) down; near its southern tip, the Puerto Rico Trench dips at one point to 27,500 (8,229 meters) feet below sea level.
