Roulette Ruby: The Real Prologue
From red to black, from black to red, and then to black again. The ruby held in a gloved hand gleamed in the two colors depending of the angle light shone upon it. Those two colors had given the gem its name; Roulette Ruby, formerly known as Bloodstone. But there were other names the treasure was called by, names that people had by now simply forgotten, or hoped that they would have.
The stone was beautiful, delicately cut and deep in color. It was flat from one angle and oval from another. It rested on the man's hand, barely covering the palm. It was the kind of a gem a woman would do anything to get as a necklace.
Roulette Ruby had never been used as an accessory. It had too much history to be treated in such a shallow manner. But it was because of that history that the man holding the jewel felt wary right now.
It might have been a bad decision to bring the stone with him on his visit to Japan. There were many people who would want to get their hands on the stone, and most of those people were in Japan at the moment. Even though it was risky, it was also about time that the treasure was taken to the outside world, out of the place it had been hidden in for over a hundred years now. The world was going to be introduced to the Bloodstone again, and the jewel was going to be introduced to an important person.
"You're going to be meeting someone special soon", the man spoke softly while he ran a fabric-covered thumb over the gem's rough surface. "He's going to be taking care of you after me." There was a pause then, like the man was listening to the stone's reply. "Yes, he has magic. Just like me." Thin lips curled upwards into a smile. "You're going to be safe with him, Lady."
Lady. It was a yet another name given to the stone the man held in his hand. But this name was known only by few, only by those who understood its meaning. Blue eyes lifted their gaze from the gem, looking out through a tinted window. They were approaching their destination, it was about time it tucked the stone away.
In a few minutes the treasure was safe in a suitcase, away from curious eyes. No one knew he was delivering the stone with him, there were no guards to draw that kind of attention. And even if someone threatened to take his treasure they would not get far. A faint green glow surrounded the hand clutching onto the handle of the suitcase. Yes, the best protection he could get for the gem was himself.
"I think we are both going to like it in Japan..." the man spoke as he made his way toward the airport's terminal. "Yes...This is going to be a wonderful trip, Lady Pandora."
