Chapter 1: The Spark of The Present Day

Alec, an ambitious young student, has always dreamed of becoming a brilliant scientist. But his dream takes an unexpected twist when tragedy strikes—Lina, his crush, mysteriously disappears. Rumors swirl that she’s been taken by a secretive tribe who believes she holds ancient powers, powers that they believe are key to their survival. Determined to save her, Alec finds himself in a strange and tense partnership with Yusen, a renowned scientist and innovator in the field of time travel.

Yusen’s reputation precedes him, but Alec isn’t sure what to make of the man. He’s seen as a visionary, capable of achieving things others only dream of, but there’s always been a certain distance around him, a coldness in his demeanor. Still, Alec knows that time travel is the only way to fix the situation, and Yusen’s the only one who can make it happen. With a mixture of skepticism and hope, Alec agrees to work with him, though he’s not fully aware of the complexities Yusen might bring to the table.

Yusen promises that together, they can unlock the secrets of time itself, fix what’s been broken, and perhaps even undo the tragic events of Alec’s past—the ones that took his parents from him. Yet, there’s something unsettling about the way Yusen speaks about the timeline, as if he’s seen it, shaped it, and perhaps even manipulated it in ways Alec doesn’t understand.

In this partnership, Alec is unsure who he can trust. The world around him is shifting in ways that seem beyond his control, but he knows one thing for sure: if time travel is the key, he must work with Yusen to bring Lina back and fix what’s gone wrong in the world, even if he doesn’t fully grasp what is truly at stake. But as they delve deeper into the mechanics of time travel, Alec begins to question if the very fabric of reality they’re trying to repair is being distorted by their own actions.
