The Reverse Time Thief was notorious, not just for their daring heists but for their strange disconnect from reality. It all began when they stumbled upon an antique clock with a peculiar ability—it reversed time by five minutes every day it stayed in their possession. At first, it was the perfect tool for escaping near-captures and planning flawless robberies. But as the days turned into months, they realized the price of their success. They were perpetually five minutes behind the world, unable to sync with its rhythm. A script writer for hire might capture this descent into isolation and paranoia perfectly, weaving a tale of stolen time and eroding sanity.
