Mission Atlantis

 Mission Atlantis Island is the 40th island in Poptropica. It will also be the second island to be released in episodes.

Episode 1: Into the Deep
It was supposed to be simple: photograph rare sea creatures, then head back to the surface. But a stunning discovery leads you to a brand new mission!

Episode 1:Into the Deep
Oh look. You're on a boat again. How nice. Anyway, talk to the dude next to the giant crate in the water (you know, the one that's acting crazy) and he'll tell you that he lost the keys to his submarine and that he needs the submarine in order to film down some fish and make THE GREATEST FISH FILM OF ALL TIME!!! Come on, let's face it dude, you'll never beat Finding Nemo.

Finders Of The Lost Key
But you're still going to find those keys anyway! The keys are with the dude with the red beard. He won't let you have them (and he seems pretty unstable so we should leave him alone). Jumo onto the platform thing above him and click on the bucket. The water will splash down on him and he will panic and drop the keys! Just kidding, you know it's not that easy. But you will get a free bucket.

Jump down and find the octopus-yes, I said octopus-and you'll need to get it to-YES, I SAID OCTOPUS-anyyway, you'll need to get it to-FOR THE LAST TIME I SAID OCTOPUS NOW LET ME FINISH WHAT I HAVE TO SAY YOU LITTLE BRAT!!! *deep breath* I'm fine, sorry. Get the octopus to fill the bucket with ink by clicking on it. *squelch* Sorry, her. By clicking on her.Then go back up to where you found the bucket and dump it on the dude's head! (I haven't done this since middle school!)

Right, now he'll drop the keys. Grab it, and return it to the crazy filmmaker. He of course, will make you get in the submarine and film the fish for him. WITHOUT PAY. He'll hand you files about the fish and then you'll have to get down there. WITHOUT PAY.

Here Be Seadragons!
First thing you see is a seadragon! Click on it and then try to keep it in front of you for a while to film it down. That was great! But there are weirder, creepier and A LOT uglier things deeper down. Ok, off-topic here, you're doing this WITHOUT PAY?!?

Of Corals And Cuttlefish
Next stop, CUTTLEFISH! You have to film down a PURPLE cuttlefish. Not the red ones, the PURPLE ones. (Kids, if you're reading this, remember this is just for fun. You should never judge a person based on their skin colour!:D) This requires a bit of strategy. There are five coral reefs and four cuttlefish. Three cuttlefish are red and one is purple, while four coral reefs are purple and one is red. If you scare a cuttlefish, it will move to the empty coral reef, and you have to move the purple cuttlefish to the red coral reef in order to see it clearly.

However, if that was too complicated for your tiny ape-brain to understand, just move through all the corals in a clockwise direction and stop when the purple cuttlefish is in the red coral.

A Stone's Throw Away
Head down to the floor and you'll find the stonefish, a poisonous fish that for some reason looks like a stone. To get it to come out, you'll have to hide in the yellow coral beside you. When it comes out, click it to get footage!

Creepiness Is In The Eye Of The Barreleye Fish
If you head to your left, you can see the creepy barreleye fish inside a rock passage that you can't get into. First click on the orange air-spitty-volcano thing (the one outside the rock) and that will force the fish out partially. Then proceed to do the same with the green one and the blue one IN THAT ORDER.The fish will be forced out into the open, and you can film it down! Although I'm not sure why you would want to, I mean that thing is just downright creepy.

Anglerfish On The Line!
I mean its eyes are INSIDE its skull and attached to its BRAIN! And YOU CAN SEE THE BRAIN THROUGH THE SKULL AND-oh,we're in the next paragraph already? Ok then. Move to the left some more and enter the next room. This is gonna require some careful....ness?Is that a word?Carefulness?No wait, it's just "care". So this next part is going to require some care. Move throughout this maze-like room and you'll see lots of tiny red fish. If you get close to them, they'll follow you everywhere. Gather at least five of them. Also be careful not to touch the pink sea urchins, they scare the fish away. Because pink sea urchins are much scarier than a suspicious dude exploring the depths of the ocean locked in a weird metal egg. Anyway, if you manage to gather enough and find the anglerfish's tiny cave, you can lure her (yes it's a "her", you can tell because if it was a male,it would be nothing but a gross, mindless parasite attached to her side) out of the cave and get footage!

Deeper Still...
NOW YOU'RE FINALLY DONE WITH THE JOB THAT HE'S NOT PAYING YOU TO DO! RIGHT?!? No. On your way back to the surface you spot an unbelievably rare jellyfish called the Hydromedusa. And of course the crazy filmmaker is gonna ask you to follow it, WITHOUT PAY!!! Oh well. You will follow it into the deep ocean and try to film it down. Then a million other Hydromedusa come swarming. Unbelievably rare indeed.

Oh, and then they electrocute your egg-sub which causes it to lose power and crash into the dark, cold, sinister depths of the unforgiving ocean. Nice investment crazy filmmaker.

But then........WHAT'S THIS?!?What is this majestic scenery that is slowly and dramatically being revealed in the background?!?It's.......IT'S.............seriously though, what IS THAT THING?!?

Well, whatever it is, they should definitely pay you for discovering it. I MEAN WITHOUT PAY?!?

Trivia

 * The jellyfish was called Hydromedusa, however, hydromedusa is actuallya genus of turtle. The correct term would be hydromedusan jellyfish.
