Ike was born many years ago, but by some crazy phenomenon, he was thrown into the present day. You could say he was a time traveler... but he was more of a time stumbler. He didn't mean to jump forward in time so far. It just happened.

Ike always thought of his reflection as unsettling. Like it was an act he puts on.

It never felt like..

..himself.

Ike sighed, shaking away his thoughts.

"These useless thoughts again.."

He mumbled to himself, pulling out his phone to distract himself while he took the train. Ike was coming back home to Sweden from his friends who lived far away.

In the back of his mind, Ike heard the intercom saying that the train arrived at a stop, but Ike's thoughts were elsewhere. He didn't even know what he was thinking about, but he zoned out. When Ike refocused, he was confused. It was.. quiet. Too quiet.

Ike looked around to see at the other end of the train was a mysterious figure with no head. The figure was holding a knife, which immediately freaked Ike out, making him step backward.

"You... You who slipped through time... You will pay for your sins!"

The figure exclaimed in a low demonic voice, lunging toward Ike with its knife. And right before Ike could be stabbed, it felt as if a switch inside him flipped, and his alter ago, Eki, came out, using Ike's phone to block the attack.

Ike never knew Eki existed. That's because whenever Eki takes over Ike's body, everything Eki does, Ike forgets. And while Eki is known as a stone cold, apathetic killer, he deeply cares for Ike, and will take over Ike's body to protect him. Like now.

After Eki blocked the knife attack from the figure, he let his instincts take over, ruthlessly murdering the mysterious person. And once the issue was resolved, he let Ike take control again, leaving Ike confused and slightly out of breath.

He looked down at his phone to check the time, when he realizes that his phone screen is completely destroyed! Ike had another gap in his memory, and somehow broke his phone!
