"They swayed side to side as they sung along with the strange lyrics. With the high and deep tones, I always felt the guitar was weeping, lamenting a death. Whenever the song played, I was reminded of Scarlett and her story.

'She gives her heart a shake,
And sobs until the tears make.
The only other sound's the break,
Of distant waves and birds awake.

The heart is fragile, broken and deep,
But she has promises to keep,
Until then she shall not sleep.
She lies in bed with ducts that weep.

She rises from her bitter bed,
With thoughts of sadness in her head,
She idolises being dead.
Facing the day with never ending dread...'"

Scarlett Vesper, an only child who grew up under the scrutiny of discipline and dissatisfaction with family, finds herself torn between her love of ballet and her desire for rock & roll. After a life of agony and torture via home-life, as well as the loss of his mother, Elias Madden, a beloved Rockstar, struggles to find peace, he chooses to distract himself with his passion and pure thirst for music. However, as his success develops, his devotion fades. Elias can only go to parties night after night, acting on his wants for extraterrestrial substances, until the first girl he ever penned a song about steps right back into his broken heart.

Who will save who from their distractions before it is too late?

Visions of Red Ruby explores the positive and negative sides to the life of rock and roll, including love triangles, heartbreak, emotional rollercoasters, addiction, and family.
