The Curse Of the Black Diamond

While sorting out the cases, he came across a peculiar case that had the description "Black Diamond." He thought was a case of illegal cartels smuggling diamonds into the country, little did he know the mystery behind it. This case distracted him from doing his job of sorting case files cause he wanted to know what it was all about and he opened it and started reading. The case file stated that, the diamond was stolen from the National Museum of Ancient Tradition by a notorious society "The Outcasts" who were creating a lot of headaches for the NIA and their identities were unknown . Legend has it that many years ago before colonization, the kings and their elders had many troubles in ruling their kingdoms so they consulted the high priest for a solution and after series of chantings by the priest there was a solution.The gods sent down a black diamond which had immense power that the bearer of the diamond would have power to rule his kingdom and beyond. Th

Several days passed by,without any activity happening at the NIA, and as the days passed by,the friendship and bond between Samuel and Reece kept growing each and everyday. It's been three months now and there's been no activity from the Outcasts and no one's investigating into the case of the black diamond and this troubles Reece a lot because if the legend of the diamond is true and the outcasts are able to harness its power, there would be a lot of chaos in the country. Samuel notices the look on Reece's face as there's no work to be done in the office and asks him "Why the long face bro?" Reece then opens up to him and shares with him the matter which troubles his mind. Samuel tells him not to bother about that because he learnt that according to history, if an individual is not worthy of possessing the diamond,it's power would not be activated "unless" and he stops to think, "Unless what Sam" , Reece asks out of curiosity and Samuel says "Legend has it that,the on

Several days passed by, with Reece and Samuel anxiously waiting to hear from the fishmonger they had spoken to days ago."We're running out of time bro, still no word from the lady. Why don't we go searching for him ourselves?"says Reece whose running out of patience."Relax man,she said she's gonna call if she see's him come around.Besides,we can't be seen there all the time or else we may be mistaken as agents of the outlaws. Let's have patience and wait." says Sam, trying to give him some hope. They suddenly receive a call from an unknown number and Reece picks up the phone,"Reece Blay ,NIA how may I help you?". To their surprise it's a lady's voice and she identifies herself as the fishmonger they met some nights ago "He's here, hurry up before he leaves. He's come at a rather unusual time . Wait…" as she breaks in silence "What's going on?" Reece asks. "They are some strange people also following him, are they with you guys?" She asks. "Oh no"says Reece as the pressure

They finally arrive at the National Museum of Ancient Tradition and noticed that the place has been surrounded by the police who tell them that,"We've got them surrounded, the moment they step out we get them, we've also evacuated the area so that no one else gets hurt." "What do you mean no one else? " Mr.Norman asks. "The workers in the museum,we believe are either dead or injured cause we heard gunshots from the building when we arrived here" They reply. "Sir we have to go in now before it's too late" Reece says to Mr.Norman with fear that by the time they come out, the outcasts would be powerful and there would be nothing they can do to stop them."Reece just listen to orders and let's wait till they come out and then we attack" Mr.Norman warns him and tells him not to do anything silly. Reece has no option than to follow orders and waits till they come out knowing very well that it would not end well for them.He goes back into the patrol van and waits as he's been told to

While they were in Reece's healthcare room,Dr.Manuel narrated the true history behind the black diamond such that they would know it's power and beware of what would happen if it fell into the wrong hands. He said that, a very long time ago,before colonization The kings of the various states were troubled by the injustice they suffered at the hands of their old rulers they fled from and for this matter they resulted in wars against each other thinking the other tribes were enemies which led to the death of many people. They all came together and decided to consult the greatest fetish priest of the land which was Boakye Addo. When they put their request before him, he asked them to give him time to consult the gods go give them an answer. After three days of consultation,he came out with an answer in the form of the black diamond. He told the kings that the purest of hearts was the king who would be selected to bear its power, on the night of the blood moon the kings surrou
