Chapter 1 : Beginning

"Ugh.... ngnghnnn... my head.."

Satoshi softly groans as he began to have consciousness. His vision was blurred and he felt a little dizzy, he leans on the wall at his bed in a tuck position as he recovers from it. Looking everywhere, Satoshi didn't see any changes and felt like it was just a dream.

(" I was sure of it... It was just a dream...") Satoshi then lumps back to his bed only to feel a hard thing pressing on his cheeks. There he saw the phone that her mother gave her as a present. Satoshi suddenly felt nervous upon seeing the item that is once in his dream (or was it just a dream).

"Nah.. it couldn't be ... ah!" Satoshi thumped his left hand to his right hand thinking that it might be it.

"Since I still have the Phone and my home wasn't burned down then I probably just have a nightmare?"

Satoshi hurriedly goes downstairs checking upon his parents in the living room, surprisingly it wasn't his parents but her big sister who was supposed to be working abroad.

"Hora, Satoshi you've woked up! You were like a sleeping beauty upstairs, like I even tried to slap you real hard that it left a mark on your face." Her sister laughs as he teases his younger sibling.

Her sister wearing an office uniform pull Satoshi's ear to the dining room as she puts the breakfast on the table. Satoshi who is still bewildered asked where is their mom and dad, and why she's there.

"Your half-asleep huh? Did you have a nightmare? Of course, I'm here! I'd rather stay here than our aunt takes care of you. You know how awful that hag is. "

"What do you mean....?" Satoshi looked at his sister visibly confused.

"Eat first, Satou. "Her sister replied looking to Satoshi as he gets close to him face-to-face.

"Neh Satou, you asking weird things that you already know right?" At that moment, Satoshi felt a little unease, as a random memory rings on his mind.

The memory shows a fragment of a normal life with him and his sister at home.

After the memory flashes. It suddenly felt normal to him after that uknown memory fragment.

" Hmm, are you unwell?" She checked his temperature with her hand to his forehead.

"Yeah, I'm fine sis..". Satoshi smiled and left as he went back to his room with his plate left half-finished.

("He didn't finish the food which is very unlikely to him and it's even his favorite burger steak..") Her sister looked quite worried as she observes Satoshi going up to his room.

"Everything, as of now felt so real yet I feel that my memories are jumbled.."

Satoshi was baffled as he prepares himself for school, weirdly enough his written reports were still there and were finished.

"Huh... but...didn't I left this undone...?" Satoshi checked every content and was written the same way except for the last final half that was left undone. He then sat in his bed and for a minute recollecting his thoughts.

There he saw his phone opened and checks it seeing a new feature was added. The feature enables the changes of switching the phone as a time controller and as a normal phone, a lot of other features were also added.

His contacts were then filled in by persons and their details, there the phone explains the system by messaging him about the new features.

[Welcome Newbie stopper, This message is your guide, via using your system device... The new features were added for the convenience of the timing controller or known as a stopper and to make progress during your time as a "Stopper".

Press [1] to continue your guide.. ] Satoshi, pressed the button as he continues reading the text message.

[Contacts- are the details of each person you met in your life, Characteristics, and their relation towards you. Your contacts and information may or may not altered whenever you make any changes from the past. If altered or wasn't in part in the first place their information will remain blank or a summary of a few words.

Message logs - This is an exclusive feature where you as a controller can only see, this will direct you to your guide who may message in times.

Gallery - This stores your memory and fragments; fragments are the memories that are still not verified by the holder - fragments can either turn into memory or will automatically discard - they will be filled with information before it turns into a verified memory. You'll need to know the exact or closest time as possible, then the location for example Japan, Akihabara, Chuo Dori ST. Then details of what is currently happening or supposed to happen at that time, with all that the specific data the verified memory will be integrated into that photo. Once verified that past will be able to change if you wished.

Battery bar: This uses your battery up to 30% Time stop will be unavailable once it's below the required amount. You can use time stop for at least three times when your battery is full. So, be careful when you use it.

[Please be reminded that the past can only be altered within the date span of a week, once it reaches its 8th day, it will automatically be verified as a normal memory flow and will be unchangeable. This limits the power for the user to abuse it. Since your the owner, even if someone uses your phone, the altered function will not work unless done by a disturbance.]

[At some point, future memory can be acquired in rare scenarios, this will be more often when the stopper's mental and psychological altitude is strong.]

"So it changes the function of the actual apps huh... "satoshi then checked his gallery whether or not the photo that happened early in the morning is true.

"But then.... what happened with my family as a normal life was just fake..?" Satoshi anxiously checked the gallery seeing the death scene unfamiliar scenes evoked with others have new faces that he never met before.

"Is this phone messing me up?!" Then all those precious memories I had in my life are fake? Satoshi felt the need to cry but somehow his mind can't make up for it. There he blankly stares at the window as he slowly accepts it.

"This is so sudden but sulking around wouldn't do good... I'll try and take time to understand the basics, and at least find a way to go back home... for now let's make it that... way".

Satoshi prepared, walked downstairs, it seems that his big sister already left for work. Satoshi then locked the door and took a key from the drawer.

"This should be the key of our home." Satoshi then looked a little while in the living room.

("Mom's favorite tea set collectibles is nowhere to be found. it seems that the place it used to be is now a D.V.D rack for some movie night, I suppose.") Satoshi keeps checking the whole living room just to make his thoughts clearer.

("Dad's old hanging clock that was bought two years ago before Christmas was changed into a normal modern clock.")

"Now, I don't feel like going in my parent's room anymore... It's probably vacant pr filled with something else. I'll gotta run for school before the gate closes.. no time for reminiscing old memories!" Satoshi hurridly closed the door and lock it with the keys, he then heads to school running for the time before the bell's ring.
