"Hello!" Shadow said, pointing his camera at himself. "I am Shadow and this is my vacation tapes with my best bro!" He then points the camera at his brown skinned friend. "Say hi Maurice."

"Hi!" Maurice shouted enthusiastically at the camera.

"So we are on a boat right now. Not that exciting really-" Suddenly the boat rocks back and forth like something hit it.

"What on earth was that?" He said, looking over the edge with the camera.

"Don't do that! Something might happen." Maurice runs over and tries to pull him away.

The boat then hits something and Shadow falls off the edge. The camera drops to the ground, pointing right where he falls off.

Maurice then picks up the camera and points it down to Shadow, "Are you alright?" rumble asks.

"Stay on the boat!" Shadow responds. "I think there is something in the water."

"I gotta get you out of there!"

Then the boat exploded, with the camera falling and records Maurice's and Shadow's yells before it all went silent.

The camera, which is on a floating debris, then sees a huge shark fin, too big for a great white, in a distance before it sunk back down into the water.

3 days later

11:00 am

"Wahoooo!" The camera shows a silverette girl named Vanessa cheered. She then points the camera to a purplenette, brunette and blonde girls respective with the blonde driving a Lamborghini.

"We're going fishing!" Emily, the purplenette, said as the rest of the girls hollered.

"Hope you're dad doesn't mind using hi fishing boat." Sara said, looking at the camera.

"Relaaaaax." Vanessa said as she turns to the camera. "I already asked dad I'm big enough to use his boat." Before turning back into the car

"Good. We wouldn't have daddy's girl needing a boo-boo ." Emily teased, earning an "Ooooooh~!" from Alisa and Sara.

"Oh hahaha. Very funny." Vanessa said sarcastically.

On the summer of 2018, college student Vanessa Danvers has decided to go fishing on her last days of school with her friends Alisa, Sara and Emily. What turned out to be a normal fishing becomes a disaster with the group becoming the bait.

These are their tapes.....

(^)(^)(^)(^)(^)

12:18 pm

"Well. Here we are. On my dad's yacht and fishing with some of my friends. How you holding up Alisa?" Shining asks holding the camera up to Alisa, who is puking over the edge.

"I would've if it weren't for the fact I forgot my seasickness!" Alisa retorted before puking up.

"Well, would you mind puking elsewhere?" The camera turns to Emily, who has her own camera while she and Sara had their fishing poles out. "We can't fish with you're puke all over the boat.

"Well excuse me!" Alisa snaps before the boat rocked violently. The girls screams as they fell on the deck of the boat.

"What the hell is that?!" Alisa said as she gains her footing.

"I don't know, but I gotta check the engine to see if it's still working." Vanessa said as she passed the camera to Sara. "Hold this." She said as Vanessa went inside.

Just then something being pulled. is heard. " Oh I got something!" Sara said as Alisa turns the camera to see Sara struggling to reel whatever is in her fishing line.

"It's heavy, help me!" Sara said as Alisa and Emily went to help Sara and and began pulling, but whatever is down there is puller back.

"What the hell did you catch?!" Emily said struggling to pull.

"I don't know!" Sara said before they fall fell and the camera slides down to the door of the deck just as Vanessa steps out.

"Guys, I just a commotion." Vanessa said before her camera sees her face turn into of horror. "Oh my god!" She said as she picks up the camera and turns to see a swordfish that had been bitten in half.

"What the?!" Sara gasped as they inspected they dead fish. "What kind of animal would make a bite like that?"

"I don't know, the only thing animal I know here are great white sharks, but I doubt they would hunt something like a swordfish." Vanessa commented.

4:20 pm

"So apparently the girls decided to have a little nap while I stay up." Emily said to the camera as she's outside with the rest of the girls are insidetaking a beauty sleep. She then points her camera

"Welp, I guess I could just admire the view here, clear sky beautiful ocean." Emily said before seeing something from the distance. "Huh?"

Zooming in, Emily spots a shark fin. "A shark? Funny, I don't recall great whites having large fins." Emily said. "Must be of not sleeping." Emily then sits on a chair.

"Better get some sleep too." Emily said before sleep took over. Unbeknownst to her, her camera capture the shark fin she saw swimming nearby and left.

(^)(^)(^)(^)(^)

6:50 pm

Emily then heads down to the deck and sees Vanessa trying to start the boat.

"What's wrong?" Sara asked.

"I don't know what happened. The engine suddenly died." Vanessa said. Suddenly, the yacht rocked violently and heard Alisa screaming as they heard a splash.

"Alisa!" Vanessa said from her camera as the three girls rushed out of the deck and didn't see Alisa anywhere. They began to search her everywhere from the water.

"Alisa!" Vanessa called out.

"I don't see her anywhere!" Sara said, looking over the edge.

"Guys," The camera turns to Emily, who dropped her camera with a terrified look. "L-look there." She points a finger at the darkness. Vanessa then turns the flash on the camera, and to her horror, sees a huge shark fin on the water and it's coming closer

"S-SHARK!" Sara shrieked. Vanessa immediately heads down into the deck and tries to activate the engine, but to no avail.

"Come on you stupid machine, work!" Vanessa cried out as she kicks the lever before the engine roared to life

"Floor it!" Emily shouted outside. Vanessa then drives the yacht and tries to head back to shore, which is 15 miles away.

"It's still following us!" Sara yelled in fear.

"That's it!" Vanessa said, looking for something. She then flips a table and reveals a G36C and takes it. She then outside and hands Sara the camera.

"When did you get that?!" Emily said shocked through her camera.

"My dad always has a gun in every vehicle." Vanessa admitted before cocking the gun. "Eat lead motherfucker!" She fires against the fin of the shark.

While most missed, several hit, causing several blood to appear before the fin goes down into the water. Vanessa eventually stops firing and looks over.

"Is it dead?" Emily asked as she points them camera to Vanessa and Sara.

"Of course not you ding-dong!" Sara snapped as Vanessa heads back inside. "A shark that big doesn't die from mere bullet wounds!"

And she gasps in fright and points behind Emily. "Behind you!" Before Emily turns her camera and sees the huge shark fin coming their just in time as it collides with them and the camera turns white with all girls screaming in fear.

(^)(^)(^)(^)(^)

7:00 pm

"Sara! Vanessa!" Emily said behind her camera as the yacht was nothing more then floating debris and she was on top of a large wooden wall.

"Emily!" Emily and sees Vanessa swimming towards her with her camera and gun. Emily helps her up and they lie down on the debris.

"Sara?" Emily said with an uneasy tone.

"She's dead." Vanessa cried, tears forming in her wet eyes. " I saw her get dragged underwater by the shark."

"No....." Emily sobs as she and Vanessa embraced tearfully. Her camera slides down on raft and into the water and reveals the huge shark, which is seen swallowing an arm that belongs to Sara, whole and making eye contact with the camera before swimming away as Emma picked the camera up from the water.

(^)(^)(^)(^)(^)

2 hours later, a search party managed to find the two girls on floating debris. Vanessa never returned to the sea again. Despite the extended search around the area, the bodies of Sara and Alisa were never recovered.

Legends of gigantic sharks like Megalodon roaming the seas are often distributed as myths and hoaxes, but as technology advances, evidences of the prehistoric shark may seem more real than fictitious.

Is Megalodon truly extinct..... or does it live among us?
