"Alright, is the camera on?"

"Yeah, I think it is…"

"Ok then. Hello and welcome back to 'Keep Beach City Weird'. I'm you're host Ronaldo, and tonight we will be investigating a very weird and mysterious place: the Mirror Maze!" the teenager announced, his camera panning over to the attraction.

"Sure, it may seem like just your ordinary amusement park attraction, but there is actually something more going on here" the host forwarned. "You see, there is actually a really good reason why this place had been shut down recently. Once upon a time this was just a normal maze made of mirrors, but then people who went in would never return. And even the few who do return are too traumatized to talk about their experiences"

"So naturally, we are going to investigate the place tonight. Now, I know what you're thinking: 'but Ronaldo! How do you intend to survive such an experience!?' Well, no need to worry my dear viewers: I never said I was going in alone"

"…I said, 'I never said I was going in alone'" he called again after a moment of silence.

"I think that was our queue!" someone off camera whisper shouted.

Walking on screen was a group of 5. "HELLO. WE ARE THE CRYSTAL GEMS" one announced. The group introduced themselves one after the other.

"Garnet!"

"Amethyst!"

"Pearl!"

"And Steven!" the pudgy boy waved on camera enthusiastically. They all then looked over to a final green member expectantly.

"….*sigh*,…and Peridot" she finally introduced, almost in shame.

"The Crystal Gems are all local heroes in our city, and they are here to help me in my investigation. I'm sure that whatever is in their, they can handle it" Ronaldo explained to the camera.

"I thought we were here to help save people" Amethyst questioned.

"That too"

"And if things should get out of hand, I will have my brother here escape with the camera and turn the in the footage to the police so they can break us out"

"This is a very bad idea, Ronaldo" Peedee piped in.

"Shush! The cameraman isn't supposed to speak!"

"Anyways," Pearl spoke. "There are allot of people who are still in here, so we have to cover allot of ground. I suggest we take the buddy system"

The group proceeded to pair up. Garnet would defend the Fryman boys, Pearl decided to go with Steven and Peridot was paired with Amethyst.

"Alright, looks like everyone has their buddy. We're going in"
