Hi @_-_Rain_-_ this is an excellent question! I wrote the book with my son, Vincent. He had a dream one night that a man forced him into a hearse and, holding a gun to him, told him he upset the balance of time; for this he must die. The man gave him 2 options: he could sit there and wait for death to come, or he could do it himself. This scene is found in chapter 10. It was such a vivid dream, and we began talking about it and thought it sounded like a great scene in a book. We started brainstorming and asking questions like, why would a man approach him and threaten his life? How would he get out of this situation? Why had he upset the balance of time? That's how we came up with the rest of the plot for the book.
