In a world where superheroes battle grotesque alien monsters that descend from rifts in the sky, Alex Carter is just a high school kid trying to dodge both bullies and falling debris. That is, until a near-death encounter with a tentacled horror unlocks their latent power: time manipulation. At first, Alex uses it to survive—rewinding a monster’s attack or pausing time to escape. But when their impulsive heroism saves a group of civilians from a ravenous extraterrestrial swarm, Alex catches the attention of the Chrono Sentinels, an elite order of superheroes tasked with defending Earth. Torn between a normal life and the relentless war against the invaders, Alex must forge their own definition of heroism in a fractured world where every second counts—and every choice could unravel reality itself.
