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 barely had time to react before a fist slammed into his ribs.

He flew backward, crashing into a wall.

Evelyn threw a knife—but Ryker dodged, moving faster than sight.

Ryker grinned. "Super-speed, genius."

Alex stopped time.

Everything froze—except Ryker, who kept moving.

Alex's eyes widened. "You're still—?!"

Ryker punched him in frozen time.

Alex crashed through a desk.

Ryker smirked. "You're not the only one with tricks."

Alex pushed himself up, breathing hard.

"You can move in frozen time… but let's see how well you handle this."

He blinked forward, feinting left—then reversing time mid-motion.

Ryker's punch missed completely.

Alex reappeared behind him and landed a kick to his back.

Evelyn smirked. "Oh, now this is getting fun."

Jax pumped a fist. "KICK HIS TIME-BENDING BUTT!"

Ryker growled. "You're getting better, but not good enough."

He dashed forward—but Alex rewound time just before impact.

Alex saw the future.

He dodged before Ryker even attacked.

Then—he delivered an uppercut at the perfect moment.

Ryker hit the ground.

Alex wiped sweat from his forehead. "You done?"

Ryker groaned. "Okay… that was actually impressive."

Then he grinned. "But I was just a warm-up."

Lillian tensed. "What do you mean?"

"You think I'm the strongest one here?"

And a new figure stepped forward.

Their eyes glowed red.

A voice, deep and distorted, echoed through the hall.

"Target acquired."

Alex narrowed his eyes. "Who… is that?"

"The real monster of Project Paradox."
