Baker Beach, San Francisco.

August 19, 2021.

The once beach where hundreds of people come by to take a dip in the water, see the sunrise or sunsets, was no person to be seen, with the sight of small tents built around with some big ones, further at the back, at the entrance of the gate, thousands of people crowd around with vans from much different news station come by as barriers placed by the police blocked many from getting close to the beach with many recording with their phones to see there only moment to see an elf in camera. A great sight to see but not many they expected having known about the elves at the beach, to the crowded people some looked towards the warships that were sent along with them. And everyone within never expected a warship that large to exist in this world, neither remembering ships being built at that size for a wooden vessel. With thousands of people around, it was quite a scene and having no progress, it was time for the elders to begin the talks for the leader of this nation.

But having said it's been 2 days since the elves had settled at baker beach, as news coverage about the golden gate incident became worldwide with everyone on earth learned about this unknown storm and the appearance of 35 unknown ships coming out from under the bridge. Trending worldwide, the elves get to stay their settlement at the beach with more than a hundred tents built by the elves lay around everywhere as police block the entrance and with many seeing that the elves had no place to scamper across.

Since those two days, it didn't take too long for the national guard to be called in, and coming down to the city, armoured vehicles once used by the military now are parked around the city and numerous of the vehicles from the national guard were positioned themselves at the bridge with many aiming towards the numerous warships, not just that, elves within there warships glares at the river to find many small boats painted with white and red. Since the bridge incident and chief Jolene sighting of the 'flying dragons', baker beach became a centre stage for the aftermath and having no progress be made was quite frustrating.

Sitting within a large tent, a table at the centre take focus for the people within it with 4 personal sitting at a different side of the table, glaring between each other, with both waiting for a response, at the table at the right, lay down a bearded officer being chief officer Jolene, sitting down best he is a representative from the city hall, was FBI agent Richard Aaron, a bearded man intimidated the two elves sitting at the other side with both wearing a type of uniform, one at the left wore a dark blue uniform, while the other wore something similar but unlike the one on the left the uniform had a yellow naming spelling out (FBI) at the right patch on his jacket.

After refusing at baker beach, things went south after the landing at the beach with her encountering what they call, her people and the admiral agreed the ships and her sailors to build and modify the beach for the expeditions force as Lillian would plan out to seek this national leader, quickly she worrying for the downfall of Elijah, and not wanting for that to happen, she looked at the distance to see stairs heading up to the hill, and there she encountered the people of this nation. She remembered smiling at them and having her getting close this delighting meeting was shut down, the officers talked to the elder if the two knew what was happening, and to hear that there aren't allowed to sleep within the beach made her confused as before not knowing what rules were put in, she didn't get the picture and even the cops looking at her confused by what and how she spoke back at them. But it didn't take too long for her bodyguard to see them having their blades be pointed at the two cops, this exchange caused a scare for the two cops and to look back at them, the elder saw them being more human than elves as there non existed pointy ears were seen with both speaking out of on what just happened. and due to that, this caused a massive intake of their progress, after scaring the policemen, the bridge and the beach itself was surrounded by national guard soldiers with many placing barriers ready to open fire if any were planning to come out.

[..]

But realizing people did not get the picture, many took up and arms with many drawing their swords at the two cops, frightening them they pulled their black things, from their left side, but both were scared off as landing in front of them was a large black wyvern with cause both officer to bail out before anything dramatic occurred. Although that scene was the cause of a news report, and after the police reported an armed person at baker beach and its fleet, a national report was heard around, and ever since then, the beach has been locked down with government officials trying to understand what is going on.

The official's point of view towards the elves was given them a sceptic look on them with both not convinced that there elves, like most people within the earth, many know that elves don't exist either hearing a nation using swords as its weapons, and even Jolene sitting at the tank doubts that he is sitting towards to elf women; Jolene sit thinks its fake, having to live in a timeline where people can be anything they wanted to be was wasnt common for Jolene to encounter people who cosplay or act like elves within sans Francisco, but even he wasn't convinced scepticism.

having to see the large wooden ships or living dragons he fully saw that it was real, not fake, and having to do all of it in person, the disbelief was beginning to doubt itself. Having said that, with him seeing it in person along with a representative from the city hall, Jolene was calm and relaxed alongside the delegate beside him. With Jolene taking a smoke, the delegate whispered back to Jolene with him taking a surprise.

"Are you taking a smoke at a time like this?"

"Yeah and?"

"Just place it down the smoke, you can smoke, later on, we have these two 'elfs' we have to discuss with."

Not wanting to break rules he accepts with him placing the stick back at the box before having it be placed back in his right pocket., after seeing that short talk between the two humans, both the elder and captain were surprised by what they had seen; for the elder and the admiral of the fleet, they both sat together with yea sets half finished with both waiting for a response from the humans as the elder not wanting to make it any longer further was to know about this united states. She talked about it for so long. With both sides sitting it was silent to hear, with both waiting for a response, they sat quietly waiting who would speak first. Seeing them as humans were discomforting for elves, having known about the current wars back in the world, was disheartened to hear having known to know the mission was to have America aid them on this unwinnable war, having to see that there asking has to fight against other humans, was something she was expected having said nothing they got no choice to run or call out the people in front, the elder exhaled and greeted the two representatives.

"Morning, gentleman!"

Lillian said in an elegant voice.

"My name is Lillian Bell, I am an elder from the kingdom we call, Elijah, on the continent of Gaia."

Before they could furthermore ask more questions, Jolene not wanting to wait furthermore asks a question about her ears.

"Before we start, are those real elf ears?" hearing this chuckled the elder and not wanting to make them wait, she quickly spoiled them the news.

"There are."

The elder quickly flinches her eyes to see it move neutral shocked both of them not expecting it to be that real, but moreover, It was more surprising to hear from the two delegates hearing that the elves can speak the same language as them, but in an older English similar to Shakespearean English, can sounding, a blessing from the lord for Richard as it was great to hear that no language barrier could ruin this moment of meeting these people, hearing this delighted voice from the elf, Richard smiled and greeted back.

"My name is Richard Aaron. I am an FBI agent sent for the role of finding out what caused this incident."

"And in the morning am chief officer Jolene lian, I'm an officer around this city."

Having to hear this both elves can see that there quite respectable on what they wore with both looking at a pair by pair to see what difference they had, for Jolene he wore a badge at his right chest with many pockets around to see that he was a working office with maybe prominent blood in due to his cleaner white skin on him.

"FBI?" "Government?" Having the elder be confused by these new summaries from Richard, she was somewhat impressed by how forma were the humans were. By having said to hear that Richard was sent to investigate the incident, one thing she realizes is that he can be a type of messenger. She asks what government or ruling king rules this country.

"But before we head further down, I must ask mister Richard, what is the ruling ruler of this kingdom of yours and how big is your nation's military power?"

It was confusing to hear for the FBI agent not expecting for the elder to ask what was the ruling king or their military power that early, but moreover was to give him a confused look to hear that the Americans was in a type of monarchy.

"The United States has never been in a monarchy rule? We are a Democratic country."

Hearing this gave a massive surprise for the elder with her not expecting for this nation to not have a ruling monarchy.'

"But what if you do not have a king?"

"Better to have a president than some ruling noble king or shit like that."

'President?' The elder mumbled and it was the word she never heard before and she too was more confused on what made this United states not have the liking of having a monarchy nation but having to learn this her questions of the military hadn't been answered and wanting to know she asked Richard.

"I see… but with that how big is your military?"

Hearing the question was making Richard somewhat uneasy, as having a military question from people he never heard or seen before he shook his head.

"That's classified information, but for one thing we have a powerful force."

Having to hear this gave a massive bombshell from the report and to learn that these United States have indeed had a powerful military made her very delighted. having said what made Richard come, shortly so the room got quieter than before, Richard promptly ended his chuckling for him, as remembering what it was reported were given back at the police department, and inside statements from chief Jolene, Richard quickly so pulled his briefcase out, as he pulled out a folder containing evidence two days ago back st the gate transmission. Richard places the folder towards the two elves in front and having both noticed it, the admiral askes what was this.

"What is this"

"It's a folder at the golden gate bridge incident and we want to show this before we can discuss furthermore."

Handing the folder, the elves open the page to see a few pictures at the side with full statements at the right describing what occurred at the bridge, with flyby pictures, the elves can see what happened and at a closer shot, can see the mess that was made around to see much-wrecked metal wagon all around with blood and grass shades staining the road around, a closer look to see black patches it was similar to what would ensue to a lightning strike. Having both seen the horrifying sight, Jolene could see them learning about the incident and not wanting to have them forget he removed his empty cigarette and asked the two elves.

"During our two-day investigation, it was strange to see a massive crashing incident happen as your 35 ships unknowingly appear within the bridge minutes after you came to baker beach, undetected."

Both said nothing as they continued reading the file they hold on to, with them closely reading the file, the shock to the surprise to see that over 34 people were killed at the bridge as wounds and hits from the car had made some have a fetal death. The elder was upset by what she just read, to she knew that side effects would come to the bridge with realizing that storms tend to occur when a summoning if a gate like this was created, having to see this she was too speechless to speak about it, for the admiral she was discomforted from the report she had seen, and to her eyes, the feeling of guilt of killing many innocents was felt around the captain as she begins to tear up.

Seeing the horror in their eyes, Jolene wasn't gonna have a silent treatment be given towards them in a time like this having that he wanted answers, not tears he quickly asks if they were responsible.

"Well? Do you know who was responsible for this? or is it some storm event that causes this crash?."

Having to hear the indirect question the admiral gets the feeling that speaking what happens means her people could be killed like what obey had done, the end of her tears and she prepares to pull a knife if things go south, and having the elder notices it, makes her quickly drop it down.

"Stop, I'll handle this."

The admiral could hear the calmness of an elder and having her get the similar feeling of an attack once she told the truth, the gulped and let out.

"During our transmission towards your world, Mr Jolene, magic in another world tends to not get any energy and since the gate was opening below your man-made bridge, I get the feeling that the lightning strikes had hit the bridge as the storm rages on."

Hearing this dumbfounded Jolene and Richard with both seeing this as a ridiculous excuse, 'magic?!' He wondered as he was too shocked by the response and even he was too stunned to speak. From the responses. Not wanting jokes Jolene was angered by the answer.

"This is a serious question ms. Lillian, this incident is the biggest natural crash that causes a lot of lives to die and you are saying magic and lighting was responsible for this?!"

But after saying it out loud, it wasn't something he would fully agree on what he had said, so far having to see this giant wyvern flying around their warships had everyone lose their minds and to see living and functioning elves, Jolene quickly calms and Richard patted his back.

"Yes and I can show you."

Quickly after so, the two delegates looked oj towards the elder who then closed her eyes as she chanted out nonsense, causing both to be confused about what it's going on.

"Earthquake!"

minutes after, rumbling occurred around them causing Jolene to get down expecting an earthquake. As the vibration around them didn't stop, as they were kneeling alongside Jolene, both looked back above the table to see the elder chanting on as the admiral beside could only close her eyes as she sat still. Waiting for proof of magic to end. Her chanted ends and around them gets hives at the sky as rocks and glowing in a brightest of blue hover around the inner tent, the two delegates could only watch around with both slowly getting to look back towards to the elder, opening her eyes lit up in a whitest of colours as her floating rounds hovers silently as the admiral said nothing and waited for the elder to reply. The show of magic shocked the two delegates within the tent and even Jolene had a feeling of regret for yelling out towards the two. She could only look back at them, as no emotions could be seen within her face as they said nothing, she smiled as she looked on at them.

"This right here is magic."
