It has come to the attention of the diamond authority that the number of rogue gems on earth has increased. With uncertainty over the number of rogue gems, a team of three Andalusite assassins has been sent to earth, prepared to face the rebel threat. As the galaxy warp is non-functional, they have been sent in a trio of single-gem pods to earth.

The three pods were entering the atmosphere, and as they broke re-entry, the started aiming for the temple that the crystal gems called home

"Hmm...emitting their own energy...definitely not Human tech. Damn, maybe they called for reinforcements..."
---
"Whoa, shooting stars!" Lenny exclaimed, as he watched the three pods streaked overhead. He dropped what he was doing and put his hands together.
"Shooting stars!?" CJ scrambled out of the scrap-parts shanty the three brothers shared. "Augh! Missed it!" He stomped on the ground in annoyance.
"It's almost as if you should have been helping us," Nick teased, "Now come on, when we finish I'll put in a skylight so we can look at the stars before we sleep."
CJ groaned and picked up some nails and a hammer, helping his older brothers finish expanding their small home. They then heard a whoosh, getting all of their attention as they turned in the direction of the sound to see a black shape following where the stars went.
"Oh no, it's Ira!" Lenny stepped back in fear.
"We need to warn the Crystal Gems!" Nick dropped his tools and they all ran to the Temple.

Mercy locked up her uncles music shop and was heading toward her apartment, holding her backpack and purse. But she saw three shooting stars in the sky.
She stopped in her tracks. Her eyes widened in surprise and wonder. She spoke to herself. "Well now, that's unusua-."
She saw where the 3 stars were heading. Something wasn't right, why were they....
....She walked quickly toward the Temple.

The pods shed their heat shields and it becomes clear that these aren't missiles or other weapons. They get closer to the ground, moments from impact. The jaged edges loom menacingly over the temple.

Smoky was at his hideout, he was mindlessly soldering a contraption while humming. Suddenly his large monitor beeped loudly from the three objects detected in the stratosphere, Smoky shrugged, "They're probably just asteroids" The monitor beeped louder as the objects got closer, Smoky got fed up and looked over to see three meteorites. 'Huh, three meteors in one night, at the SAME TIME?!" Smoky walked over to his door and kicked it open, just to have it collapse and break on the floor, "I gotta check this meteorite situation out." He then left, but not before throwing a rock at his annoying monitor.

The pods landed, one in the ocean, in knee deep water, one on the beach, and one lodged in the side of the cliff above the temple, next to the statue. The pods start pinging, scanning the surrounding environment for gems. By the patterns and advanced gem tech, these are homeworld pods. But their purpose is uncertain.

"RAAAGH!" Ira punched the pod that landed in the side of the cliff, deepening it into the crevice before the stone broke away and the pod landed into the sand. He made no hesitation to attack again, the surface of his Medal sliding away to reveal the particle cannon underneath. He blasted at the pod repeatedly, until a fist collided with his cheek, knocking him off balance as the beam attack fizzled out.
"Rrrgh!...oh, you again," Ira controlled himself as Nick jumped back from his attack in anticipation of a counter. "I guess the others are calling for help? Fine, but at the very least let me destroy these things."
"Not a chance!" Nick said, touching the Medal on his chest and summoning his power drill.

The pot that fell was unscaved, being made to withstand impacts enough to shatter the toughest of prewar gem tech. They remain docile, and pings faster, as if recording the gem activity nearby. Lines of light blink in synch, the speed increasing.

Mercy saw the commotion and started to run towards the Temple, pulling out her staff from her Gem.

The blinking and beeping sped up until it was a constant tone, and a constant light. The pods didn't do very much else, but the light started to get louder.

As Nick and Ira began fighing, CJ and Lenny knocked on the Crystal Gems' door.
"Please! We need to use your phone!" Lenny said, "Also, Ira's back!"

Rhodonite crossed his legs as he sat on the edge of an empty outdoor stage. His eyes scanned over a script, a pencil twirled in one hand and was occasionally chewed as he thought about the exposition, characters, etc. He frantically erased a mistake and blew off the eraser dust from the script.
Beep, his senses perked. Rhodonite tore himself away from his work and noticed the pod on the beach.

The light became blinding, and the sound grew until it saw deafening. The pods then stopped flowing or beeping and the top halfs shot off. Inside were gems, all retreated inside their gems.

Smoky looked over all the commostion going on, bright lights, some guys fighting, some other guys banging on a door,and some chick with a spear, seems like another crazy friday night for Smoky. Smoky ran over and beach and found the half on a pod with a gem inside, now smoky didn't want to go near it if is a trap so he waited to see what would happen, but he readied his buster sword.
