Chapter one:
Located just outside of Tokyo, Japan a team of archeologists is busy moving rocks and scraping away other dust and debris. The quickie Earthquake that hit just outside Tokyo lasted for only five minutes but it was enough to unearth a small ancient underground temple hidden just under the streets. The sound of large bull dozers and the hustle and bustle of a hard-working crew fill the early morning air. Dr. Jenkins a sixty-year-old British archeologist and part time Scientist with greyish-white hair and black brim glasses was lightly brushing the carving of an Ancient dragon's head craved into stone when he was interrupted by a loud crash.
Dr. Jenkins: What the devil is that?
He looks around nervously wondering where it came from when he was approached by one of his young workers.
Worker: Excuse me, sir? But I think we found something and we thought you'd might like to take a look.
The Doctor was very excited by the news and hoped that he would find something marvelous, although the very small temple was exciting enough. The young worker guides the Doctor thru the crowd that gathered near the site of the crash to a hole with a ladder at the sides of the walls.
Dr. Jenkins: I'm gonna need a little help getting down here, I'm not as young as I used to be.
With a slight chuckle, he and the young worker make their way down the ladder into another section of the temple. A sixteen-year-old girl with soft brown hair and dark eyes approached from inside and handed the Doctor a flashlight.
Dr. Jenkins: Jenny, did you find anything worthwhile down here?
Jenny: I did grand pa! You have to see this!
She leads Jenkins toward a carving on the cemented walls formed into an arch and sitting just under the arch was a small pillar. Dr. Jenkins adjusts his glasses as he tries to make out the carvings on the arch.
Dr. Jenkins: Hm, It's not written in Japanese. It seems to be in a completely different language. But what I have no idea.
Jenny: Yeah and that's not all we found. Look at the top of that pillar. It appears to be a jewel!
Dr. Jenkins walks over toward the brown colored jewel sitting atop the pillar. Although covered in dust it was still beautiful to behold, quite large, oval, and around the size of the palm of a woman's hand. Dr. Jenkins was in awe of the find.
Dr. Jenkins: I can't believe this. It has to be very valuable if not for its size than the historical value. I must have a jeweler here to appraise the stone at once!
Jenny: So you think it's real?
Dr. Jenkins: It must be! Go up and inform the workers to cease all action for the rest of the day and that we will return to work on my command.
Jenny: Yes grand pa!
She rushes out the temple and up the ladder.
Worker: What should I do sir? Do you wish me to carry this up or should we leave it behind until the Jeweler arrive?
Dr. Jenkins: I will carry this up and keep it safe. You just go home and relax, you've done enough for today.
When the site was cleared, Dr. Jenkins walked into his work station and placed the jewel into his carry on steel case. He thought to himself that this is the greatest day of his life. He would have fame just like all the other archeologists that came before him. The next day the jeweler was bought to the site by helicopter. He was in his early forties, tall with dark hair and blue eyes. Dr. Jenkins greets him with a friendly hand shake and leads him into the canopy work station area that housed all of the little special stone carvings and other unrecognizable objects they hoped to clean and discover.
Dr. Jenkins: Mr. Thomas, I want you to look at this and tell me what you think?
He pulls out the Jewel and hands it to Mr. Thomas. He takes it and holds it up to some light.
Mr. Thomas: Hm, it doesn't really look like a jewel but it's hard to tell. Allow me to examine this more closely to be sure.
After Mr. Thomas removed everything he needed from his bag he proceeded to inspect the Jewel.
Mr. Thomas: Well I have to say this is very unique and it seems to be a jewel but has different characteristics. I would say it was a stone but it looks remarkable!
Dr. Jenkins: Yes it does it's--
Just then the stone began to glow Mr. Thomas panics and drops it, the earth underneath their feet began to shake.
Dr. Jenkins: Get back now!
They move out the way as it began to glow with more intensity until it suddenly stops. Both men regain their balance and try to calm their breathing.
Mr. Thomas: Are you all right?
Dr. Jenkins: Yes, I'm fine.
Mr. Thomas: It must have been another earthquake.
Dr. Jenkins: No, it was the Jewel. And look!
Right in front of them was beautiful grassy hill with sunlight shining down onto the meadow that ran between the trees. A small country home sat nearby with clothes hanging on the line to dry. A beautiful woman with long blonde hair with strands of grey and light blue eyes in her early fifties was standing outside looking up toward the sun, enjoying the beautiful day. Dr. Jenkins looks on in shock and horror. With his trembling fingers he tries to reach out for her.
Dr. Jenkins: Laura!
The image fades away with Jenkins one last glance of her entering the small home.
Dr. Jenkins: No! It–It can't be!
He began to clutch his heart and stumble back.
A worried Mr. Thomas rush over toward him and hold him in his arms.
Mr. Thomas: What is happening! Are you all right?
Before another word was uttered, Dr. Jenkins was dead. Mr. Thomas checks his neck for a pulse, nothing.
Mr. Thomas: Help! Someone help me!
