It was dark, almost midnight.
Beach City lay quiet at this time, with its' residents sleeping. Down the beach, lied the temple.
He was here investigating some things that demanded his interest. A blog online had captured his attention through his department, but it was unique compared to the Bigfoot sightings or the various werewolf/vampire encounters.
The Diamond Authority.
His teacher mentioned to him a few years back that somethings were still unknown to most of mankind. That life had many other shapes than what was on Earth (or as he had started to call it, Terra).
And this story was so bizarrely alien, he HAD to check whether it was real or not.
Hence, his visit to Beach City.
The blog spoke of the Diamond Authority, and the Rebellion, and the three (four or five?) gems that currently resided in the temple. How Rose Quartz had defied her superiors and shattered Pink Diamond.
It made reference to many mysterious sights and areas around the world, and already teams were dispatched to look into these claims.
It took the man three minutes to set up his device on the hill. It would scan for abnormal energy waves that originated from within the temple. Activating it, he stood and waited.
His laptop showed five dots within the temple, with two being less than two feet away from each other. That last one indicated it was the fusion Garnet.
Taking out his phone, he called someone who needed to know his progress.
"Sir? This is Agent X103. I'm reporting on File 23. The entities known as the Crystal Gems seem to actually exist. I have live confirmation from the scanner. Do I have permission to engage? Yes sir. I will do that right away."
