Ceres is immortal. No need to slowly go over it, she stopped aging a while ago and sicknesses can't get her. She wouldn't mind that much, but of course her creators had given her violet eyes. A lot of the city's individuals got surgery to look unique, but they couldn't change their eye color. Brown, blue, green, all the natural colors that were ordinary.
To add to the uncomfortable stares on the streets, Ceres has zero social skills. Never being able to have friends that last as long as she does, it's hard to learn when you have no one. One day, she finds a note that's dated back to the year "2146" and tells someone to meet the writer in a field. What's there to loose?
Epoch is a time-warper. A mistake that wasn't supposed to happen, but did anyway. Time doesn't exist, at least not for him. Raised in a lab for five years, he's desperate to find someone he can relate to. He writes a note and sticks it in one of the labs drawers, hoping someone in the future might find him and meet him in a field. Epoch surfs the years, unsuccessful. Until, about seven hundred years later, he finally finds something.
GEA, or the Genetic Engineering Assosiation, is trying to get rid of the malfunctioned Time-Warpers. And possibly the immortals, too. They design a bug that can only effect the chromosomes that the Time-Warpers and Immortals have. They send out genetically programmed soldiers to take care of the job.
Join Ceres and Eopch as they battle through the chaos life throws at the duo, and learn what time really is to the both of them.
Remi has always loved the forest, the different sounds, smells, the way she could get lost in it and never have to go home to her non-existent parents. She goes in and out of her life with her best friend everyday just waiting until they're both old enough to leave their small boring town. But one day Remi is attacked, and nearly killed, by a man in the forest. When she wakes up everything's different. She feels something inside her, a power, but she has no idea what happened to her. All she remembers is the man's strange yellow eyes. When three new boys show up at her school, one with yellow eyes, asking her question she gets nervous. And then one night while heading to go get her friend she's taken and thrown into a world she didn't know existed.

"Remi?" Jen says suddenly.
"Hmm?" I hum back.
"Do you ever wish you could just live in the forest? Away from everyone and everything?" She looks at me. "Free." We stare at each other for a long time. I see the real meaning in Jen's eyes. Her worries for going home to her overly strict parents. Her fears for the future and the unknown in general.
"If we lived in the forest we wouldn't have gummy bears any more." I comment to lighten the mood. She doesn't find it funny.
"I'm serious Remi! What if we did run away?"
"Jen, we can't just run away. I know your parents are strict but I truly think they just want what's best for you." She says nothing. For a moment I fear she's mad at me but then she puts her head on my shoulder and I know we're okay.
