Shattered reality. - Quantum Fold Chapter 1/ 5

The charred remains of the antique shop reignited the unease that had shadowed her ever since she first encountered the mysterious disc. Was the fire connected to it? Why had the disc been there in the first place? And then there was the man—the unsettling figure who had been watching her. She could feel his gaze, like an invisible weight pressing against her skin. And the disc itself… the way it vibrated in her hands. None of it added up.

 

Adrienne drove aimlessly, giving herself time to think while ensuring she wasn’t being followed. Once home, she lingered in her parked car, scanning the street through the rearview mirror. You’re losing it, she told herself, finally stepping inside.

 

Inside, she lowered the window shades before heading to the closet. She hesitated before reaching up and taking down the disc, unwrapping it for the first time since that day in the shop. Its worn, ancient surface bore strange, unrecognizable markings. Her fingers traced the intricate details—a clock-like dial, with divisions and arcs that made no sense.

 

Despite being metal, it was unexpectedly warm. As she cradled it in her hands, the vibration returned—stronger, more deliberate. Then, without warning, a dim glow pulsed from certain areas. She gasped, set it down and stepped back, watching in stunned silence. It had responded the very moment she wondered how it worked. And when she set it down, it stopped.

 

Adrienne’s pulse thundered in her ears. This isn’t possible. She wrapped the disc back up in a frenzy, shoved it into the closet, and shut the door. Whatever secrets it held, she wasn’t ready to find out. Not yet.
