Over the next few weeks, Alex fought off countless enemies, each more dangerous than the last. Every battle revealed a new power hidden within the Chrono Shift—time manipulation, energy blasts, teleportation—but each power came with a price. The more Alex used the device, the more it seemed to change him.

One night, after barely escaping an ambush, Alex sat on the roof of his apartment building, staring up at the stars.

"Why me?" he whispered. "Why did it have to be me?"

A voice echoed in his mind, soft and distant. "You were chosen, Alex. For a reason."

As Alex learns to control the Chrono Shift, he faces growing threats from different factions across the galaxy. These chapters delve into his struggle to balance his human side with the alien power surging through him. Dialogues reveal the emotional weight Alex carries, especially as he questions the motives of those hunting him and the true nature of the Chrono Shift.

With each chapter, Alex grows stronger, both physically and mentally, forming alliances and uncovering the dark truths behind the alien technology.
