I'm not good with Grammar. But, I like writing fictional stories. Here you can use one of mine if you want. This is the idea: Lien, Jeffrey, Alejandro and Lola go to a field trip to a science museum. Once inside Lola the most troublesome of them 4 accidentally overhears a conversation where 2 scientist are plotting to build an underwater city because Armageddon was near. After hearing this she tells her 3 friends Lien, Alejandro and Jeffrey. However they don't believe her. So what Lola does is that she alone follows the scientist around and she uncovers hidden secrets as of where the underwater city might be etc. And in one of those times she was spying she realizes the scientist are working on a force field to seal the city. She finds out where the city is hidden.
Later on Lola finds submarines in the museum and decides to go herself to the city and save herself since her friends aren't willing to listen to her. She is not captured, get's away with it and when Armageddon comes she is inside the city protected by the underwater force field. And among her are other thousands of survivors. Details can be added to it. Don't you think?
