Rubinrot Page #5

And a good day.

Oh, God.

Those aren't right!

Quick, pull your dress over them.

Belgravia, we're in a hurry.

Ah, Yes Sir.

Oh! Visitors from the future,

how lovely!

Gwendolyn.

I'm so pleased to meet you at last.

Ah, thank you. Nice to meet you.

How lovely you are.

Isn't she?

Lady Tilney,

I'm here about what we

discussed ten years ago.

My answer's the same:

You can't have my blood.

But let's go upstairs.

Ten years ago?

For Lady Tilney it was ten years ago,

for me it was yesterday.

Chatting is so much nicer

over a cup of tea.

Here we are.

That's a good boy.

Lady Tilney,

how come you know my name?

Other visitors from the future.

It happens quite a lot.

Oh! Your shoes look very comfortable.

Is that the latest fashion?

Yes, but yours are nice, too.

Lady Tilney, you're making a

mistake if trust the wrong people.

I agree. I always tell her that.

"You should be careful in who you

place your trust."

Stay where you are!

Paul, look who's come to visit:

Gwendolyn Shepherd.

I'll go get Lucy.

Gwendolyn. Is it really you?

Incredible.

You're so grown, so pretty.

Stop! We're leaving.

Why are you in such a hurry?

What do you want?

My name is Paul de Villiers.

It's strange to see you so grown up.

It's strange you know me, at all.

Don't talk to him.

I'm sure my dear brother Falk has

made you into a real fighting machine.

You've here to save the day, aren't you,

or rather the chronograph.

They gave their blood willingly.

Gideon. They don't know where it will lead to.

Actually, they just don't want to destroy what

the Order has worked so hard to protect!

You were brainwashed.

It's imperative the Circle is not closed.

The Count isn't as selfless as the Order believes.

We know the truth...

You lie every time you open your mouth!

Gwendolyn.

You're really here!

Lucy.

My necklace was given to you.

Please take care of it.

Why did you come here?

Why did you run?

What you need to know, it's all about you...

We're leaving!

No, not yet! I want to know what's going on.

You can leave, Gwendolyn remains!

Lucy will show us the door!

Gwendolyn, listen to me. You're in danger!

We know what role you're supposed

to play, it's all in the Prophecy.

The Count is dangerous,

he will sacrifice you.

They must not win!

Don't listen! She's lying.

Look for the Prophecy about the Ruby!

Trust the Raven's magic,

it will save your life!

Don't shoot!

Hey! Run!

We'll be safe from those anarchists here.

What did he mean, "fighting machine"?

Krav Maga,

It's Israeli combat technique.

360-degree defence. Come on.

Let us thank the Lord

for the shelter of his house.

It was important.

They wanted to talk.

They really don't want

the Circle of Blood closed.

It was a trap!

I don't believe a word they say.

Lucy said "Prophecy".

What is that?

On each one of us travellers

there's a prophecy.

Only the Grand Master knows them.

They're top secret.

The two of them know something we don't!

It doesn't matter.

They are the traitors.

Ya, and how is it that you

are certain of that?

Maybe the Order did brainwash you.

You are ruining everything.

Charlotte just used to do

whatever I told her to.

Well, Miss Shepherd?

Is there anything

you want to confess?

Have you had any indecent thoughts lately?

Only if you confess your sins

to me Mr. de Villiers...

Oh, my heavens!

Don't worry, Miss Shepherd.

I won't mention your shameful behaviour.

What have you been doing in there?

The house of Our Lord has

protected us from heathens.

Shameful! You're fornicating in there!

Fornicating!

Falk will lose it if we

don't go straight back.

They can't really want their time

travellers to starve now, right?

Here.

#121 Tandoori chicken with extra batura

and mango lassi.

Bombay Garden, best Indian around.

This is quite a "different" place here.

You and I are "different".

Oh! Too spicy Mr. de Villiers?

Welcome to the present.

Miss Shepherd. Though I know

how to act in the past,

you should know I have a

life of my own, alright.

Uh huh, and what does that look like?

I'm studying... medicine.

Though this semester is a washout.

And what is it that you do when you're

not trying to poison guys with hot curry?

I don't folk dance or play the violin.

Playing the violin isn't so bad.

Women certainly like it,

in every century.

You really are an arrogant jerk.

Thank you.

And you are the nicest girl in the world.

"The Diamond, the hardest of all."

His first curry!

It was a trap.

They wanted Gwendolyn. They wanted

her blood for their chronograph.

Look, they just wanted to talk.

Oh! Ya, and that's why they shot at us.

You found them engaging, right?

They said the Count is dangerous.

Traitors!

With Charlotte, this wouldn't have happened.

Ya, that's because Charlotte

dosen't have the gene!

It's not a surprise that Gwendolyn's

no match for Charlotte.

If that's the case then go get

another travel partner!

I could finish this on my own.

I checked the year 1912

and the years following

There's no trace of Lucy and Paul I'm afraid.

The likelyhood they joined the

Florentine Alliance is quite high.

You mean the egg dish, right?

That's not funny at all.

The Florentine Alliance

is one of the Order's strongest enemies

and has been for years.

An orthodox Christian order.

They accuse us of heresy.

Lucy also mentioned there were prophecies.

What do those prophecies say about the Ruby?

You do not have the right to ask that.

Since everything's so secret, who can I ask

about it? The dead Count, for God's sake?

Okay, I'll travel back in time and ask him.

When do I go?

You'll get your chance to meet the

Count... in due time. Now get out!

Her curiosity's dangerous.

The Count will answer her questions

and that will clear up everything.

She must learn... to trust us...

...just as you have.

Is it wrong for her to ask

why we are risking our lives?

For mankind, my dear boy.

The sapphire egg in my vision

is an omen of tradgedy.

Because a sapphire egg actually...

Aunt Maddy, if I hear about a

"sapphire egg" again, I'll scream!

Gwendolyn.

One rises to the occasion,

you'll soon see that.

We hope for the best.

My tea leaves...

Right after school you'll

be driven to the Order.

Call me if anything's wrong, okay?

And don't let that Gideon impress you.

Young men like him

can't wait to break your heart.

Hey, Gwenny!

Can you bring me a dinosaur egg from the past?

Sure! Velociraptor or tyrannosaurus?

Gwendolyn. You realize

that this isn't a game!

You don't get that a "Secret" Order

is supposed to be "Secret".

Or do you think Gwen is

allergic to dinosaurs too?

You've no idea of the danger

you're putting us in.

Gideon was highly amused

by your "abilities" yesterday.

We call each other every evening.

The poor guy has nobody else.

Oh, Ya!

He suggested I give you lessons

when it comes to walking, sitting,

and especially in drinking tea.

But I said...

I can handle it!

Ya, well I said you were too stubborn
