Tempus Fugit. Those were words often heard on board the Vesta. They were words of encouragement and motivation, more often than not issued through Captain Martin. He used them to get his crew working in times of crisis, of which there were many when one was working in time travel. This case was pretty severe.
Temporal distortions had been popping up all over Akihabara, and not the good kind. Scanning showed that it was 13:12 on one side of town, and 20:13 on the other. Food prepared seconds ago was spoiled almost immediately. Time had stopped completely in some places. Fortunately, no-one was aging backwards just yet. THEN it would be a disaster. Adam had been beamed down to investigate the cause of the disruptions and find, for want of a better word, a cure.

It was just another average day in quiet little Akihabara town...or was it?!
Yuko Yamada, who goes by the better known stage name Yumeria Moegi, was strolling through the central hub of all otakuness when she noticed some strange goings-ons. For instance, she picked up a can to recycle it, but found that the garbage men had already rounded up the recycles through out town. This wouldn't have a noteworthy event if it weren't for the fact that garbage day was tomorrow!
Yumeria was convinced something sinister was afoot here in Akihabara and it was here job to stop it! She's doing what any person cosplaying as the American cartoon hero Captain Planet would do!

Adam walked at a brisk pace, drawing a 21st century jacket tight around him. He initially didn't notice the Captain Planet cosplay, but he was forced to do a double take.
"Whaa..." he shook his head. The 21st century was a really weird place.

Yumeria -ahem- Captain Planet was on a mission. And she -he- wasn't going to stop until -he- -she- -whatever- finds out what kind of mysterious force is plaguing Akihabara.
As she walked down the street, she noticed the same people passed her over and over and over and over again. After the fifth time, Yumeria stopped one of them and asked why they kept walking down the same street so many times.
"Huh?" replied the man with raised eyebrow, "Are you crazy or something...?"
He shrugged her off before continuing on his merry way in search of rare collectables at reasonable prices. It seemed as Yumeria was the only one who noticed all the bizarre things happening around her...

"He won't understand you." Adam said, turning back and walking up to Captain Planet. "He doesn't know that he's living the same moment over and over again. Speaking of such a thing, how are you escaping the distortions?"

"Eh? You notice the strange goings-ons too?" Yumeria then shrugged in response to his question, "I have no clue whatsoever."

"Yeah. I wear protection." Adam gestured to a small silver device on his arm. "And I just realised that sounded really weird."

Yumeria nodded before eyeing his "protection."
"Hmm, that looks and sounds very futuristicy.." she then gasped, "Are you from the future?!"

Adam was slightly taken aback. "....yyyyes." he said. "Tell no-one."

"That's so cool," her eyes gleamed like freshly polished diamonds, "I can't believe i'm actually talking to someone from the future! So..how far in the future do you come from?! Why did you come to this time?! Do you they have flying cars where you come from?! What's going on in Akihabara right now?! Oh! Do I ever become a famous mangaka?!!"

"That's a lot of questions." Adam rubbed his head. "And I can only answer a couple. Timeline reasons. So...1000 years, time distortions, yes."

"Ah..." Yumeria pouted for a moment.
"Then what's causing these.." she made air quotes as she said the next part, "Time distortions."

"Time criminal is the simple answer. But no." Adam whipped out a small silver disc and pressed the middle. A small hologram appeared above it. "Short answer: it's a time bomb. Long answer...you don't wanna know."

"A BOOOOMB?!" Yumeria gasped, "So it's already gone off? Are you too late to stop it, future man?!"

"Yes, A BOOOOMB!" Adam replied. "And yes, it has gone off. There's still some time to defuse it, though."

"Huh?" Yumeria titled her head, "If it's already gone off, how can you still defuse it..?"

"Like I said. It's a time bomb." Adam shrugged, putting away the hologram. "It's set to go off at a certain time, and I just happen to have a time machine."

"A time machine?!" Yumeria's eyes sparkled, "That's so cool! Just like something out of a manga! Can I take a ride in it?"

"Yeah, sure." Adam tapped his neck. "Bringing one up. Get my uniform ready." Letting go of the spot on his neck, he stood still. "You might wanna stand still. Also, you might feel a tingling sensation. That's just your atoms being broken up and reformed. You'll be fine." Then, he disappeared in a pillar of blue light.

"What do you me-" she was cut off as she herself disappeared in another pillar.
