Alex Carter was just an ordinary 17-year-old—until the night everything changed. After a chance encounter in a dark alley, he discovers an impossible power: the ability to manipulate time. But with great power comes deadly consequences.

When a dangerous criminal organization known as The Shadow Syndicate learns of Alex’s abilities, they send their most lethal enforcers after him. Pyre, a mercenary with fire-based powers. Echo, a master of sonic destruction. Nightmare, a psychic who can turn his victims’ worst fears into reality. And at the top of it all—Zero, the ruthless leader who possesses the ability to erase anything from existence.

With his world spiraling out of control, Alex must train alongside unexpected allies: Evelyn, a genius hacker with telekinesis, and Marcus, a street brawler with superhuman strength. Together, they uncover a plot that threatens to rewrite reality itself.

As the battles grow fiercer and the stakes higher, Alex realizes his powers may be the key to stopping Zero—but using them comes at a cost. With time running out, he must master his abilities, face his greatest fears, and make an impossible choice.

Because if he fails, time itself may shatter… and the world will fall with it.

Timelock

Alex's chest was tight.

His whole life—his memories—his identity… a lie.

He clenched his fists. "So what now? They come for me, and we just… wait?"

Lillian's gaze hardened. "No. We take the fight to them."

Evelyn raised an eyebrow. "Oh, so now we're going after the super-secret government experiment people? Cool, cool, that seems smart."

Jax groaned. "This is how people in movies die."

Lillian ignored them. "I know where their main facility is. It's hidden, underground. If we destroy their servers, we wipe everything they have on you."

Evelyn shook her head. "We'd be walking into a death trap."

Jax sighed. "I hate that I agree with her."

Lillian smirked. "Who said we're walking in?"

Alex narrowed his eyes. "What's the plan?"

Lillian pulled out a small device—a holographic map.

"Paradox HQ is in a classified bunker. Heavily guarded. But I have blueprints. If we take out their mainframe, they lose all their data on you."

Jax rubbed his temples. "You make it sound easy, but spoiler alert—it's probably not."

Evelyn crossed her arms. "We're going to need firepower."

Lillian smirked. "I might know a guy."

He was going to end this.

The Calm Before the Storm

They had 12 hours to prepare.

Rigs stocked weapons. Jax made snacks. Evelyn sharpened her knives.

Alex stood on the rooftop, looking out at the city.

He sighed. "Honestly? I have no idea."

She smiled softly. "You're stronger than you think."

Alex nodded. "I just hope it's enough."
