Touched by the tears of the creature Medusa, her heart is slowly turning to stone. Desperately searching for a way to save herself, Valentine begins to experience odd moments where time and space would bend and reform, where life around her would completely stop.

While Valentine finds herself running out of time, and away from her past, she seems to be loosing her heart to a boy who may not be who she'd thought he'd been.
Will time elapse, and history repeat itself? Can there be more to Valentine then what meets the eye? When time runs out, and Valentine finds herself caught between a bloody destiny and newborn identity, can even the Father of Time be enough to save her?
