John Vincent had a bizzare dream. He remembers a mysterious shilhoutte saying something like,"It's time to awaken it". Months later he realizes that he has awakened an extremely bizzare power to freeze the time for a short period.

How will he put his newly awakened power to use? 
 Who is the mysterious shilhoutte in his dreams?
And what is John Vincent's fate?

Beyond The Realm of Time

He woke up in the middle of the night. His breathing was heavy. He turned on the lamp and looked at his hand. His hand was normal. He felt relieved. The bizarre dreams he was having started to make a disturbing connection.


But John soon thought he was overthinking. "Maybe it is the side effect of today's match. After all, I am too tired.",   he talked to himself. John tried to sleep. 


He couldn't fall asleep for quite a while but at last, he fell asleep.


The next day, he woke up, washed up and went to the kitchen. Mr Vincent was in the kitchen. "Oh, you are up now come and help me", said Mr Vincent.  


"Help you?...", John expressed his confusion.


"Well, your mom isn't here so help me in preparing breakfast"


"She went to a picnic with her friends. She won't be here the whole day."


"Come on help me prepare breakfast fast"


"Don't hesitate. It will be a little father and son moment", Mr Vincent grinned.


After having breakfast, John got ready for his school and Mr Vincent got ready for his office. They locked the door. Mr Vincent gave the key to John as he is the one who arrives home first. Mr Vincent left for his office and John left for his school.


His whole day went normally. He was excited to go home and just play games and watch movies because mom wasn't there to continuously scold him. After school, he directly went home. He opened the door and started watching a movie. 


About an hour later, his dad arrived too. 


"John have you prepared something to eat?", Mr Vincent shouted.


"I'm hungry, and you must be hungry too?"


"Ahh, man. And here I was thinking I'd get to eat something prepared by my son."


"Why don't we order something to eat online. That's what you are thinking right now.", Mr Vincent interrupted.


They ordered some pizzas and they ate them. Then John went back to watch the movie and Mr Vincent remained in the hall and watched TV. 


It was around 6 pm. John went downside. He saw his dad on the sofa watching TV. "Hasn't she arrived yet?", John asked. "It is indeed time for her to come but..I don't know why she hasn't yet. She is not even picking her phone". 


They both waited for half an hour and still there was no sign of Mrs Sarah Vincent coming back. They decided to call one of her friend that went to a picnic with her. Mr Vincent called Mrs Rockbell. Mrs Rockbell picked the phone.


"H-Hello Mrs Rockbell, isn't picnic over yet?"


"It's already over. We are already home."


"No, I thought she already went home. She was just worried about you and John the whole day so I thought she went home early. Isn't she there yet?"


"N..No..sh..she isn't. But she will probably be soon. Sorry for making you worried".


"Maybe she is at the groceries buying vegetables.", said John.


"We can't just sit here doing nothing? We have to search for her, take help from police if necessary.".


"I am seeing a bad future.", Mr Vincent added.


Suddenly they got a call. It was an unknown number. Mr Vincent received.


"So you are this beautiful woman's husband. She is with her now. Don't even think about calling the police. Otherwise, we can't guarantee what would happen to this beauty (other men laugh at the background). If you want her back do as I say." 


Bad news!!!
