"On his 21st birthday, Arjun discovered an old, dust-covered wristwatch in his grandfather’s attic—one that ticked backward and whispered the date of his death."
After seeing the watch he was confused he tried the watch on his best friend.
As soon as his best friend wore the watch, time froze around them—the falling rain paused mid-air, birds hung motionless in the sky, and the only sound was the slow, eerie tick of the backward-moving hands.
He paniced he removed the watch from his best friend hand and wear on his own, trying various buttons on watch.The moment Arjun pressed the red button on the side, the attic around him dissolved into mist, and he found himself standing in the middle of a bustling marketplace—but the signs were in Sanskrit, and a young Ashoka was giving a speech nearby.
He had wore different clothes from other, surroundings people was shocked to see him the gaurds start targeting weapons on him.
Realizing he stood out, Arjun raised his hands in panic, but before the guards could reach him, the watch glowed blue and yanked him forward through a tunnel of swirling light, dropping him into what looked like a futuristic city floating in the sky. As he was seeing his surroundings flying car, robots, flying bots, and floating houses he was again thrown into the tunnel by the watch.
This time, he landed in a dark forest under a blood-red moon, where a hooded figure was waiting beside a fire—and before Arjun could speak, the figure said, “I’ve been expecting you, Timewalker.”
He was all dizzy due to time travelling and fainted then and there.
When Arjun awoke, he was lying on a bed of glowing moss inside a tree-shaped house, the hooded figure watching over him and murmuring, “You’ve only scratched the surface—your destiny is tangled across centuries.”
Arjun was confused then the hooded figure came forward elaborating how his grandfather was also a timewalker.
The hooded figure pulled back their hood, revealing a face marked with ancient symbols, and said, “Your grandfather guarded the watch to protect the timeline—but now, its power has awakened in you, and forces from the future want to control it.”
